GRCC seeks director and donors By Ryan Berry

DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – In Matthew 25, Jesus gives instructions to his followers to feed the hungry, clothe those who need clothes, and care for strangers; Grace Resurrection Community Center (GRCC), 433 E. Water St., Greenville, has adopted those words as their mission. Those of us who don’t have to worry about where our next meal will come from or what is in our closet may not be able to comprehend how vital GRCC is to Greenville and the Darke County Community. Fortunately, there are some area residents that have seen how vital GRCC is and step up to donate time and money to the organization. Through their four programs, soup kitchen, food pantry, backpack program and clothing bank, GRCC’s volunteers and donors touch thousands of lives each month. However, when your primary mission is to serve others seeking donations is an integral part. According to Chance Cox and Curt Garrison, GRCC board members, the need is real. They do well in keeping their programs going through donations and through their affiliation with Shared Harvest. As with most non-profit organizations, the programs that get the attention are the ones that get the donations. “We’re just not raking in the money,” Garrison said. Most donations are given specifically to one of the four programs and those accounts are in good shape. GRCC’s biggest issue is its general fund. The general fund is what the organization uses to pay is heating and phone bill. It is also where the funds come from to pay for improvements to the building. They are currently in need of new windows.

They are hoping several area businesses will come together in the spring to paint the outside of the building. “Without this building, we would be nothing,” said Garrison. The building houses three of their four programs. Only the backpack program is assembled offsite. GRCC is also seeking an executive director. The position was once held by Sharon Fellers and more recently, John Hensley was serving as the interim director. Cox and Garrison agreed, the person they are looking for to serve as the organization’s director will have a heart of service. They are also looking for someone with administration skills and the ability build relationships with the people they serve, as well as donors. Persons interested in donating time or money or would like more information about the executive director’s position can stop by when GRCC is open or contact the board president, Greg Zechar at Zechar Bailey Funeral Home. The soup kitchen is open Monday through Thursday; doors open at 10 a.m. for fellowship and the meal is served from 11 a.m. to noon. The food pantry is open Monday and Thursday, 6-8 p.m. Residents can use this service twice monthly. There are income and residency requirements. The clothing bank is open Thursdays, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Donations are also accepted at this time. For more information about GRCC and its programs, watch this week’s DarkeCountyMedia.com Extra video program on The Early Bird or Advocate’s Facebook pages or at www.earlybirdpaper. com.

Sisters at it (decorating) again By Linda Moody

DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE— “We’re busier now than we ever were,” said Connie Taulbee, who, with her sister, Caren Long, decorate their house at Christmastime each year at the corner of Honeysuckle and North Broadway. The women, who moved to Greenville in 2009, began decorating that next year for Christmas and haven’t stopped….yet. They work on the interior of their home in October and work on the outside in November, with the help of their uncle, Dan Hittle, who doesn’t live too far away. In November, we are usually done in three weeks,” Long said. “This time, it took five weeks. We tried very hard.” They used to host open houses at their home on a certain day during the holidays and provided food for the event. “We had 93 at one time,” Long said. “We stopped that last year, but we still have the church ladies at Greenville Baptist Temple in.” The sisters have everything imaginable inside and outside of their home reflecting on Christmas and the reason for the season. “Our blow-ups are down outside until the weather breaks,” Caren said. “They are under the frozen snow.” Among new items they have this year is a dancing Santa in the living room which the grandchildren

love. She said there are not as many Christmas trees this year. But they still have one in every room in their house except for one bathroom, and that was donated to a church. There is a Hobby Lobby tree, a gingerbread tree, what Long calls a “monster tree” that came from Kmart in Springboro, a purple tree in Taulbee’s bedroom a blue tree in Long’s bedroom and a snowman tree in the water closet of one of the bathrooms. “We probably get 80 percent of our stuff from garage sales,” Long said. “I bought five blow-ups this summer.” She went on to announce, “We will have a Christmas in July sale to downsize. We will still put the lights up next year and do the decorating inside but we will be getting rid of most of the items.” “Our uncle, Dan, made the manger scene and it will be up every year,” Taulbee said. The women said they have helped a lot of families

over the years but are no longer doing that. “We used to help with Coats for Kids for the Sheriff’s Department,” she said. “But, now the only thing we do is bake cookies and give them away. We take some of them to the local radio station, especially to Scott Ward.” The women are missing their neighbor, Fred Matix, who died this week. In fact, he is the one who suggested this story be written. “Fred loved our Christmas music playing on the

We will keep doing that this year.” Matix had even told his wife, Joyce, to give the sisters a square snow globe nativity scene and that is now among their interior decorations.

Man found staggering in street Disorderly On Dec. 15 an officer on patrol in the 100 block of East Main Street observed Herman Linder staggering in the roadway. The officer had prior knowledge that officers had given Linder approximately six warnings for disorderly conduct over the previous 24 hours. On one of those occasions, Linder was provided a voucher to stay at a motel. The officer made contact with Linder and he was found to have a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage about his person. Linder’s speech was extremely slurred and he was difficult to understand. The officer asked Linder if he was drunk and he stated “a little bit.” While speaking with Linder, liquid was seen coming from the bottom of his pant leg and it appeared he was urinating. Due to Linder’s persistent disorderly behavior, which created a substantial risk of physical harm to himself, he was placed under arrest for disorderly conduct. While placing Linder under arrest, he was found to have an unopened 24 ounce beer inside his clothing. The beer was emptied and discarded at the Greenville Police Department. Linder was issued a citation for disorderly conduct then transported to the Darke County Jail, where he was incarcerated with a bond of

The officers had prior knowledge Brown had an active warrant for his arrest in reference to a parole violation. Brown was detained in the garage area and his warrant was confirmed through dispatch. Brown was transported to the Darke County Jail and incarcerated for his parole violation without bond. While inside the residence, the officer observed at least 7 adults, 4 small school-age children, and 1 infant who all appeared to be living inside the small apartment. The residence was in deplorable condition with dirty dishes covering the counter, bags of what appeared to be trash in the living room, and dirty laundry and other miscellaneous trash scattered throughout the living and garage area.

The officer also asked the defendant if she had paperwork from the courts for privileges to drive and she said yes. She handed the officer a document from Kettering that stated she was able to drive to and from medical appointments and home. Calandrelli told the officer she was coming from Taco Bell because she was going to Harrison Avenue to give a friend some food and medicine she’d picked up. The defendant also told the officer she had taken medication, including Norco (Hydrocodone), Lyrica (Pregabalin), Norvasc, and Wellbutrin. The officer asked Calandrelli if she would perform a set of standardized field sobriety tests, and she consented, but performed poorly on all tests. Calandrelli was arrested for operating a vehicle while under the influence and was transported to the GPD, where she was asked to submit to a chemical test. She refused to submit to all chemical tests and was placed under an administrative license suspension. The officer asked Calandrelli if he could see a locked pill bottle she had in her possession. She was asked about her prescription directions. After counting, the officer determined the defendant had in her possession about half the amount of pills she should have had at that

time. Calandrelli had filled her prescription just a few days prior and after 6 days of use, Calandrelli should have still had approximately 48 Lyrica pills and 96 Norco pills - but she only had about half that amount. Calandrelli was issued a copy of a citation for operating under the influence, driving under suspension and for an expired registration. Through LEADS/ NCIC it was confirmed that Calandrelli had a previous OVI conviction in June of this year. Her driver’s license was taken because she was being placed under an ALS. Calandrelli was released to Kalen Corwin. Traffic stop was burnt onto a DVD and placed into property.

DAYTON – The Alzheimer’s Association Miami Valley Chapter’s Telephone Support Group is seeking caregivers who could benefit from a support group, but who have difficulty physically attending a monthly meeting. This virtual support option provides local caregivers an option to talk with other Alzheimer’s caregivers in the Miami Valley to get support, tips and general conversation. Members dial in the first Monday of every month at 7 p.m. The call is led by a trained facilitator and lasts for one hour. According to a recent Alzheimer’s Association survey, people overwhelmingly agree that caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia should be a group effort among family or close friends, yet one out of three caregivers are not engaging others in caregiving tasks. The Alzheimer’s Association’s Caregiver Support Groups are available so that caring for someone with the disease does not seem so demanding and isolating. Dawn Boroff, community services coordinator with the Alzheimer’s Association Miami Valley Chapter, said, “This support group can be extremely beneficial to caregivers that are unable to travel to an in-person meeting site. The knowledge you gain is invaluable to helping your loved one.” The Telephone Support Group is one of 17 support groups the Miami Valley Chapter offers.

Balloon launch and the LIGHT Project GREENVILLE – The Light Foundation is a nonprofit organization that exists to give at-risk kids a better chance at leading healthy lives by using the great outdoors to learn and grow. It was founded in 2001 by former New England Patriot football player Matt Light. In 18 years, the programs and events have grown immensely. One program that has continued to grow each year is The LIGHT Project – an acronym for literacy, inquiry, getting outside, having fun, and time spent with family. The program aims to get first graders interested in reading and exploring the environments around them. It was created by Angela McMurry and is a program that is funded and supported by The Light Foundation. The LIGHT Project has remained only in Darke County school systems for five years until an amazing thing happened in the fall of 2018. The Clarence and Shelbina Elementary Schools in Clarence and Shelbina, Mo. celebrated the groundbreaking of their new school, which will bring both schools onto one campus next year. With

the ceremony they sent bouquets of balloons with notes attached asking for the finders to send it in, so they know how far their balloon bouquets traveled. One of the bouquets of balloons happened to land at Chenoweth Trails – the 500-acre plot of land for The Light Foundation in Greenville. When the Light Foundation staff found the balloons outside, they knew they had to do something for the South Shelby Elementary. In addition to sending an autographed football, posters, and many

different pieces of memorabilia, they offered to extend the LIGHT Project to the first graders in Missouri. The elementary schools started the school year in August, which is also when the program is introduced to the first graders. It is something they can participate in all year by reading books and participating in activities in order to earn points to redeem for prizes. The Light Foundation provided all 40 South Shelby first graders with books along with an activity bag that includes a magnifying glass, tweezers, ruler, and a journal to start their reading and exploring journey. The Light Foundation

continues to help the youth grow and learn each year. It would not be possible to provide books, tools, and journals to a total of 500 first graders in 15 classrooms each year without the help of sponsors. The sponsors for this year’s LIGHT Project are DP&L Foundation, The Fred & Alice Wallace Charitable Memorial Foundation, Kiwanis International, American Legion Post 140, SEW Eurodrive, The Knights of Columbus, Moose Lodge #329, and Hooked on Fishing – Not on Drugs.

Dental assisting students who passed the CODA test are Briana Baker, Amanda Duffy, Mercedes Geesaman, Zion Moss, Brooklyn Murphy, Caitlyn Rieder, Seyda Shakirova, Lindsey Westgerdes, Chloe Wilson, and Lacy Wolfe.

Dental seniors earn credentials ENGLEWOOD – The Miami Valley Career Technology Center (MVCTC) is very proud to announce the 10 Dental Assisting seniors that successfully passed their Certified Ohio Dental Assistant (CODA) test. The students have prepared for the past year to take the test, and all the preparation paid off with them passing all three portions of the 11-hour exam. Students earning their CODA credential are Briana Baker (Eaton), Amanda Duffy (Carlise), Mercedes Geesaman (Ansonia), Zion Moss (Trotwood-Madison), Brooklyn Murphy (Preble Shawnee), Caitlyn Rieder (Brookville), Seyda Shakirova (Bethel), Lindsey Westgerdes (Versailles), Chloe Wilson (West Carrollton), and Lacy Wolfe (Tri-County North). During the Dental Assisting students’ junior year, they will learn about dental history, dental anatomy, dental terminology, dental materials, and infection control. Students will also become CPR and First Aid certified through the American Heart Association. During the students’ senior year they will prepare for their Certified Ohio Dental Assistant (CODA) test. When students pass this CODA examination they will become certified to assist and will earn an Ohio Dental Radiographers license. The Dental Assistant program participates in Advanced Placement that allows students to be employed by a local dentist office during the second semester of their senior year. This program prepares students for careers as dental assistants in general dental offices and specialty dental offices.

Laziness or change of generation Am I the only who has noticed that people don’t decorate their homes, send Christmas cards, and shovel snow like a lot of Greenville residents once did? It seems like a lot of people have dropped the ball with these three things. What happened to people’s Christmas spirit? Many years ago, there used to be a home decorating contest, my family finished second and third in it. As a kid I loved driving around the town looking at Christmas lights that decorated homes. Yes, it’s great and fun to go to Mr. Brown’s home, Clifton Mill, Union City Park and St. Clair Park in Eaton. However, why not see the time, effort, and money other people have put into decorating their homes. Christmas cards can be purchased for a dollar; there shouldn’t be an excuse for us not to show people appreciation and caring thoughts by sending family and friends Christmas cards. Yes, the cost of stamps has gone up, but are people not worth that small cost of a stamp? Do people really think so little of family and friends? Do people not care about the person who delivers their mail daily to not shovel the walks? Yes, shoveling snow is manual labor and at times it can be back breaking. We as residents should show our mailman some appreciation by getting the sidewalk clean in front of our homes for them. People, they are out in the cold, snow, and wind for the whole day. Let’s try to do a better job of these things next year and even the rest of this winter. It makes the city look nice when residents take time and put effort into making their homes look nice for the holidays. For families it makes for great family time to go out for night on the town to drive around to admire Christmas decorations. Eric Swartz, Greenville

Governor’s Imagination Library opens DAYTON – Ohio First Lady Fran DeWine recently announced the opening of the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library (OGIL) in Montgomery County. “I’m so thankful to our Montgomery County partners at Dayton Children’s Hospital and the Montgomery County Commissioners who are bringing the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library to this community,” said Ohio First Lady Fran DeWine. “The first three years of a child’s life are the most important in brain development. Reading can help in that development, which is why Mike and I are passionate about giving every young Ohio child access to free books with the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library Program.” Any child from birth to age five can enroll to receive books from Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library. After enrollment, children will begin receiving a new book each month, at no cost to their family, until they reach the age of five. “We know 90 percent of a child’s brain development occurs in the first five years of life, and that’s why programs such as the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library are so critical to positive outcomes for children,” said CEO and President Deborah Feldman, Dayton Children’s Hospital. “By signing up for this program, parents and caregivers can show children the value of books and set an incredible foundation for learning.” “Investing in early childhood development makes good sense, because it improves our economic competitiveness by setting people up to be successful in college and their careers,” said Montgomery County Commission President Debbie Lieberman. “Montgomery County has a long history of tackling complex problems with common sense and collaborative solutions, and the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library is another project we are approaching with that same drive and dedication.” The Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library is currently working to ensure children in all 88 of Ohio’s counties can enroll in Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library in 2020 by providing a dollar for dollar funding match with each county that opens OGIL to its residents. The Ohio General Assembly committed $5 million to OGIL in the state fiscal year 2020-2021 budget. To learn more, visit ohioimaginationlibrary.org.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year Well, Christmas is upon us and the New Year is approaching. Not sure if I’m quite ready; but am as ready as I’ll ever be, I guess. It’s getting better thinking about it, because of what I’m seeing this holiday season….lots of fun times with families, joyful music, beautiful decorations, and I hate to say it, snow. Not sure if snow will be on the ground those days but, whatever, we have to deal with it. I was glad I got to cover the Spirit Medical Transport’s Christmas party again, and oh what a party it was. More spectacular than last year and I didn’t think it could get any better, but it did, with 10 more vehicles and lots of medical- and technical-related gifts for each department there. I made two huge stories out of it; one for the Early Bird and one for The Daily Advocate, but saved Brian Hathaway’s and Arron Guthrie’s top thank-yous for this column. The company, they said, would like to thank the following companies and individuals for all of their support in making the Christmas surprise possible: 911 Fleet & Fire represented by Dan Mitch; Penn Care, Mike Bowman; Freedom Motors, Kevin Barnes; Greenville Federal, Nick Good, Tina Jones, Jeff

Greenville Wave freshmen break 0-41 skid By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville freshman basketball team earned a double digit 49-39 win over the visiting Stebbins Indians to break a 0-41 streak for the team, a streak that began with the opposing team scoring 109 points

against the Wave boys in their first outing. “All those previous losses – I’m trying to challenge our guys to be men so to me the slate is wiped clean and we’re moving forward,” said current GHS freshman coach Shane McKinniss. “There are a few key words when you talk about

resilience and perseverance,” said GHS principal Stan Hughes following the win. “Those are the kind of words that we want to instill in our students here, our school and our communities. If we take anything away from that, it’s kids can and will persevere if they choose to do so.” Coach McKinniss was

pleased with the team’s play giving credit to the entire squad for the win and believes the victory gives the team much to build on. “It was definitely a team win but we had some individuals that played very hard,” McKinniss noted. “It does a lot for our kids, our young guys. It makes

them realize that the past is the past, we’re moving forward and we are trying to be better basketball players, better men and better people.” “This gives us something to build on,” continued Coach McKinnis. “We have had things to build on throughout the year, we have also had several

setbacks but I am proud of my guys and the way they have responded when I have challenged them throughout the year. This is just a good indicator that we are moving in the right direction.” Contact Darke County Media Sports Editor Gaylen Blosser at gblosser@ aimmediamidwest.com or 937-5483330

2020 Arcanum induction set On Saturday, January 4, 2020, three new members will be inducted into the Arcanum Athletic Hall of Fame. Carl “Bud” Gray, Class of 1946, Elihue Couch III, Class of 1982, and Andrew Bryant, Class of 2000, are this year’s honorees. Bud Gray earned nine varsity letters as an athlete at Arcanum. He lettered three times in basketball, four times in baseball, and two times in track. In 1949 Bud signed to play baseball with the Philadelphia Athletics which is now the Oakland A’s. He married Sara and together they had three sons and two daugh-

ters. Their family eventually expanded to include 12 grandchildren. Bud served his community as a member of the Arcanum Fire Department for 59 years, having served as fire chief for 37 of those years. Bud started his own construction business building custom homes and doing home improvements in the area for a number of years. In 2005 the Ohio Senate recognized Bud for his 59 year career with the Arcanum Fire Department. Bud passed away in 2008. Elihue Couch was a standout in both football and track and field. His football recognitions included being named as 1980 CCC

Honorable Mention and 1981 CCC First Team. In 1981 he was also named as Class A All-Ohio Special Mention. Elihue held the records for most sacks in a game (4) and most sacks in a season (14). He was also a track standout as he earned the Arcanum Boys Track Most Valuable Field Events athlete in 1981 and 1982. As a coach, Elihue led the junior football program to five CCC titles. He has previously coached the junior high girls and boys track teams. He was instrumental in helping establish a wrestling program at Arcanum High School in 2004. Elihue is married to Michelle and

together they have three sons. As a member of the Arcanum High School golf team, Andrew Bryant set several records that are still in place today. Those records include the low 9 score, low 18 score, and low 9 hole average. Andrew was also part of the team that currently holds the low team 18 score. He qualified for Districts three of his four years of high school. He advanced to State his junior year placing thirteenth.

Wave 7th graders top Tipp By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville boys seventh grade basketball team improved to 4-0 on the season under the direction of veteran coach Ken Neff with a Wednesday night 40-39 MVL double overtime come-from-behind victory over the visiting Tippecanoe Red Devils. “Unselfish play on offense supported by 70-percent free throw shooting was the key to coming out on top,” said Greenville seventh grade coach Ken Neff. Tipp took the opening period 10-7 with Greenville’s Eric Brenner accounting for all seven Wave points on three baskets and 1-1 at the charity stripe. The Red Devils stretched its lead to 15-9 at the break taking period No. 2 by a 5-2 score with Brenner hitting Greenville’s lone bucket. The Tippecanoe seventh

graders extended their third period lead doubling the score at 22-11 over the Wave before closing out third quarter play with a 28-17 advantage. Brenner paced Greenville with five third period points including 3-4 at the line. The undefeated Green Wave battled back to outscore the visitors 14-3 in fourth quarter play send-

ing the game to its first overtime period tied 31-31. Drew Hamilton scored 6-points including 2-2 at the free throw line, Brenner hit three baskets for 6-points and Mason Grimes added a bucket in the fourth quarter comeback. “The team put an outstanding defensive effort on the floor in the fourth quarter to erase an 11-point deficit and move the game into overtime, then double overtime and eventually hold on against a very good Tippecanoe team,” Coach Neff stated following the game. The teams played to a 33-33 standoff after the first 3-minute overtime period before the Green Wave boys would take the second OT period 7-6 to earn the Miami Valley League win and stay perfect on the season. In the two OT periods, Greenville’s EB Fall was 2-2 at the line, Brenner was good for 3-points including 1-1 at the charity stripe and Hamilton was a perfect 4-4

at free throw line. Greenville made 14-20 free throws good for 70 percent shooting while Tipp was 3-10 on the night. Eric Brenner led Greenville and all scorers with a game high 23-points including 5-6 at the line. BOXSCORE: GREENVILLE 40, TIPPECANOE 39 GREENVILLE – E. Brenner 23, D. Hamilton 11, EB Fall 4, M.

Ansonia downs Lady Blackhawks DarkeCountyMedia.com

ANSONIA – The Ansonia Lady Tigers defeated the Mississinawa Valley Lady Blackhawks 62-47 in a CCC Saturday afternoon matchup. “It was a team effort,” said Ansonia Coach Bruce Davison. “There were a number of good plays, key plays at times. Not necessarily ones that are going to always show up in the scorebook in terms of points.” “Someone shared with me that we had four players in double figures,” Coach Davison continued. “I saw a lot of defensive plays, key rebounds, key closeouts and things that are not going to show up in the scorebook but it was really a key for the overall to be successful.” The Lady Hawks took an early 8-3 lead at 4:28 in the first quarter before Ansonia battle back with seven unanswered points to lead 10-8 with 3:44 showing. Ansonia held a slim 12-11 lead at 1:05 in the opening period and used a 7-0 run to lead 19-11 after one quarter of play with Sky Edwards pacing Ansonia with 10-first quarter points including two 3-pointers

and 2-2 at the line. The Lady Tigers took a double digit 22-11 lead with 6:20 on the second quarter clock and closed out first half play leading 29-17. “I share with them – play hard, play enthusiastic, enjoy the togetherness, that time together on the court because it is a window of time,” Davison said. “People in your life are a window of time and I share with them that they as a group are together just this short window of time.

Enjoy it together, embrace it.” The third quarter had the Lady Tigers putting daylight between the teams outscoring the visitors 18-6 led by Molly Barga’s 6-points sending the teams to the final period of play with Ansonia holding a comfortable 47-23 advantage. Ansonia stretched its fourth period lead to 30-points, 58-28 at 3:58 before the Lady Blackhawks battled back taking advantage of Ansonia’s liberal substitutions to put 24-points on the fourth quarter board led by Mattie Hiestand with 14 MV points to make it a 15-point CCC win for the Lady Tigers. “It’s an opportunity for the other players,” Davison said of the early large fourth quarter lead. “They show up for practice as well and they are accountable to work as hard as everyone else even though when it comes to game time, they may not get equal playing time.” “They are deserving of

having the opportunity to get on the court as well and enjoy the game not just simply from the sidelines but also out there on the court,” added Davison. “If you are a parent or anyone in the community you enjoy seeing others play as well.” “I have nothing but respect for Coach Bergman and the Mississinawa Valley program as well,” Davison concluded.

Nursing students honored PIQUA – Edison State Community College honored its most recent nursing graduates on Dec. 12, with a pinning ceremony held in a gymnasium filled with family and friends at the Piqua Campus. The pinning ceremony is a time-honored tradition in which the graduate nurse is presented to family and friends as a professional who is about to practice nursing, and the graduate is pinned by the faculty members who have worked with the students throughout their course of study. Each school has a unique pin, which serves as a symbol of the successful completion of a rigorous curriculum, which prepares its graduates to administer to the sick and injured and promote health through the practice of nursing.

First Christmas in Greene Ville GREENVILLE – December 1793, the first Christmas in Greene Ville was a period of hope and resolve, but with little joy and peace. The British had rebuilt their forts on American soil at Detroit and at Miamis near today’s Maumee, Ohio. The Indian tribes, supported by the British, continued to attack the U.S. Army and settlers, killing from Cincinnati to Fort Jefferson. Fort Greene Ville was begun Oct. 24 as a large staging area for the upcoming campaign to establish a peace treaty with the tribes which had defeated Gen. St Clair on Nov. 4, 1791 on the Wabash River (Ft. Recovery). On Dec. 20, General Wilkinson’s wife Anne invited General Wayne and his officers to celebrate Christ-

mas with a feast. Wayne declined citing the flu, but actually used his health and Christmas as a diversion to secretly dispatch 300 troops. The troops traveled 23 miles north on Dec. 23 to reclaim the site of St. Clair’s defeat and construct a permanent fort named Fort Recovery; that was Wayne’s Christmas present to the young nation. Wayne’s troops started construction on Dec. 24 on the very site of the St. Clair’s defeat which resulted in 900 Americans lost with the few hundred survivors retreating south to Fort Jefferson. Wayne’s Captain Henry Burbeck reported on the battlefield site “had a very melancholy appearance, nearly in the space of 350 yards lay 500 skull bones; from

thence for five miles, and the woods, was strewn skeletons, muskets, &c.” Gen. Wayne and his officers did feast on Jan. 1, but not at Fort Greene Ville but at Fort Jefferson. Major Buell reported Mrs. Wilkinson served “Bill of fare: roast venison, roast beef boiled, and roast mutton boiled and roast veal boiled and roast turkey and fowls; raccoon, possum, bear meat, pies made of chickens, mince, apples, tarts, &c. Sweetmeats, preserves and jellies, floating island and ice cream; plum pudding and plumb cake, vegetables, a plenty of the best wines, at evening we had tea and coffee in high style.” Gen. Wayne and his officers returned to Greene Ville after dark. Friends of Fort Jefferson www. fortjefferson.org

DC Parks Winter Wonderland program a success GREENVILLE – Darke County Parks’ annual Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland holiday event saw one of its largest crowds in its 12 years on Saturday, Dec. 7. Approximately 1,200 people made their way through the trails of

Shawnee Prairie Preserve lit with over 600 luminaries. Attendees also enjoyed decorating gingerbread men, delighted in the decorated Christmas trees, and constructing Christmas ornaments in the Nature

Center. Guests were able to enjoy a tractor wagon ride through the woods; some even witnessing distant fairy lights. Good Ol’ St. Nick even stopped in to see what was going on and visit with some good little girls and boys.

At the log house, “200-year-old” staff and volunteers welcomed the chilly travelers in true historic style with spiced cider warmed at the hearth and cookies. A mountain dulcimer filled the air with the sound of Christmas past.

Outside at the blacksmith shop, the anvil rang, and the forged glowed bright. Guests were able to warm up around the campfire and toast marshmallows under the light of the moon. Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland has proven time

and again to be one of the staff’s favorite events, and this year was no exception. If you missed it this year, join us annually on the first Saturday of December. The Darke County Park District staff wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday season.

UC Lions learn about Wick’s pies UNION CITY, Ind. – The Union City Lions Club recently met for their regular meeting. After a meal served by D’s Restaurant the program for the evening was presented by Mike Wickersham, president and CEO of Wick’s Pies in Winchester. Wickersham talked about the history of Wick’s Pies and then spoke of the

current manufacturing process and what they are looking for in the future. Wick’s Pies was founded in 1944 by Duane Wickersham (Mike’s father). It started as a small cantina in Anchor Hocking, a factory in Winchester, Ind. The business was moved to the Rainbow Restaurant and in the mid 50’s they were making and selling

about 20-30 pies/day. They realized that to grow the business they needed to freeze the pies. After their move to the current location, they did just that. After a fire in the mid 60’s they increased the size of the operation and installed a 100-foot oven that is capable of making 1,500 pies an hour. Mrs. Wicks was opened in 1984, the

Darke County Republican Women give to BRC GREENVILLE – The Darke County Republican Women’s Club (DCRWC) recently donated funds to the Brethren Retirement Community (BRC) as a thank you for the use of the Chestnut Center. DCRWC held its 2019 monthly meetings and some special events using the Chestnut Center. “The BRC is a valuable resource in our community. This is just a small token of our appreciation for it being such a great host to us during the 2019 year,” said Betty Hill, DCRWC president.

The donation was presented to BRC’s Chief Financial Officer Carl Eubanks at the DCRWC’s most recent meeting. DCRWC is a political group founded to provide political education and legislative information; provide a wider knowledge of the principles of the Republican Party; increase the number of registered Republicans; recruit, promote, and support qualified Republican women for political office; give exposure to and work actively for all Republican candidates; and lend support

Cadets announce plans to join Navy GREENVILLE – With graduation slowly creeping up, the two highest ranked Cadets in the Greenville High School NJROTC Program have enlisted in the World’s Finest Navy. This is an honor for the Green Wave Navy. NJROTC is not a recruiting tool for the United States Navy. Instead, the program seeks to help inspire students to become better citizens and to develop their leadership abilities. Cadet Lieutenant Commander Victoria Gibboney and Cadet Lieutenant Levi Midlam, the NJROTC program’s commanding and executive officers, took the opportunity to serve their country as members of the United States Navy as E-3’s (Seaman). Typically, a young man or woman signs a contract to enlist as an E-1 (Seaman Recruit – the first pay grade in the military). However, the Navy values the

leadership and technical development of students in the NJROTC Program enough to promote enlistees with at least three years of NJROTC experience to the two-step higher pay grade on their first day. Both Cadets had joining the Navy in mind and have recently committed themselves to a future of service to their country. Both Cadets recently enlisted and attribute their reasons to experiences they have had in the program. Cadet Midlam expressed his feelings this way, “I decided to join the Navy sometime last summer. Attending NJROTC Leadership Academy this past summer and taking a NJROTC field trip to Washington, D.C. made me realize even more what I could do for my country through the Navy.” Cadet Gibboney said, “I have been thinking about it since sophomore year but I didn’t really

commit to it until this year. I decided to join the Navy because it is what I have known for four years and I don’t like change.” Cadet Gibboney added that another consideration that made her want to join the Navy was travel and support. Other Cadets in the Greenville High Schools NJROTC Program have opinions on Gibboney and Midlam joining the Navy. Cadet Chief Jacob Hinshaw said, “I feel like the two highest cadets joining the Navy is a really cool thing. It shows they are willing to sacrifice themselves for everyone at Greenville High School and others across the nation.” Cadet Seaman Aerianna York said, “I am kind of bummed that they will be leaving the unit, but other than that, I am very proud of them and what they will accomplish.” Another Cadet says that she did expect them to join

CLEARANCE

the Navy. Cadet Chief Ashlee Brumbaugh said, “I did expect them to join the Navy because of their leadership skills and how involved they are in the unit.” Other Cadets think that it reflects highly on the unit that the two highest ranked are joining the Navy. Cadet Senior Chief Logan Shields says, “I think the two highest ranks joining the Navy looks good on the unit because when people think of the CO and XO they expect them to join the military.” Cadets feel that the Navy is a good place for Gibboney and Midlam because they have so much experience. Cadet Brumbaugh said, “I feel that they will do a good job in military since they have spent so much time in the unit.” Cadet Midlam leaves for Navy boot camp in Great Lakes, Ill. in June and Cadet Gibboney soon follows in July.

Buckingham continues to put up a fight By Linda Moody

DarkeCountyMedia.com

ANSONIA — Darcy (Stump) Buckingham is hoping the new year will be better than the last couple of years have been. “I can’t wait for 2020 to get here…when I can start feeling better and hoping the nightmares are past us,” she said. She appreciates the prayers and learned that grandson Kayden even prays at night that she gets better. “I have my good days and my bad days,” said the Ansonia mother/ head volleyball coach who was diagnosed with pancreatitis in January 2018. “That was when I was technically diagnosed. I had not felt well in December 2017.” She said her symptoms were jaundice and extreme pain in her side. She was taken to Wayne HealthCare, where she works as a phlebotomist, but was transferred to Good Samaritan in Dayton. “I was in there a month and spent a week of that in ICU,” Buckingham said. “They did an ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde CholangioPancreatography) to open up and put a stent in my common bile duct. My pancreatitis was one of the worst cases that the doctors have seen. There is no rhyme or reason what causes it, but it spiraled downhill from there. I was not allowed to eat and was put on pancreatic rest. I had a nutrition replacement running through a pic line.” “The doctors at IU (Indiana University Hospital) are amazing,” said Buckingham.. “My surgeon, Dr. Michael House, is world renown. I am beyond blessed to get in touch with him.” “They did a biopsy of a mass and removed it,” she said. “It was not on the pancreas. They have only seen two other cases of this mass. It was not malignant.” In taking a look at her pancreas and liver, doctors found a sizable collection of necrotic (dead) lymph nodes. Thus, it was decided not to remove the pancreas and spleen as originally thought. Buckingham got out of the hospital four weeks ago, and has been

staying home for the most part. She has gotten to see a couple of her children’s games and even watched the recent Ansonia Lighted Tractor Christmas Parade. She and husband Shane have been together 19 years and have two children together and he also has two sons, and now there is also a grandchild in the mix. Buckingham, who was recently named head varsity coach for volleyball at Ansonia High School, was elated to receive that distinction. “I coached this season and had amazing support,” she said. “At the beginning of the season, they wore socks bearing the words and now the team motto, ‘Coach Strong’ to let me know they were playing for me.” Coach Buckingham has been battling health issues but did not allow the obstacle stand in the way of her coaching duties during the 2019 fall volleyball season. “I told the team a while ago I have some health issues I am fighting through,” she said. “They chose to say that ‘if coach can fight through what she is fighting through, then we are going to fight for her’.” “The doctor acted like when he took the mass out it would be a fixall,” said Buckingham, who is limited to soft, foods. “I feel confident with the doctors, with what they’re saying. It took me two years to get doctors who know their stuff and are very good.” Contact Darke County Media Staff Writer Linda Moody at lmoody@aimmediamidwest.com or 937-569-4315, ext. 1749.

They know you are talented, bright, and creative, and that you can work as a team. These are the skills that they are seeking. They are here to work with you, they are here to inspire you, and they are here to recruit you. Believe it or not, as young as you are, they would love to have your talent working in their business and propelling them forward.”

Staff treats Empowering kids GREENVILLE — Edison State Darke County Campus staff made a visit recently to Empowering Darke County Youth students in Greenville, offering their own version of “trick or treat”… instead of asking for treats, they came bearing gifts. Gifts for each student included a book, bookmark, real miniature pumpkin and – of course – some candy. The visiting Edison State staff members included Chad Beanblossom, Vice President of Regional Campuses, Melissa Eve, Office Manager of Regional Campuses, and Rachel Carlisle, Director of Regional Campus Enrollment Management and Student Services. This is Edison’s second Halloween visit, bringing goodies and, especially, educational materials for Empowering kids. According to Beka Lindeman, Edison State Assistant Professor of English, the books and bookmarks were donated by Diagon Valley, a chapter of the

Students earn 100 percent pass rate PIQUA – Edison State Community College is proud to announce a 100-percent pass rate among the spring 2019 physical therapy assistant (PTA) graduates on the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE). This achievement marks the second consecutive year that graduates of the PTA program at Edison State have secured a 100 percent pass rate on the NPTE. Developed by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT), the NPTE is utilized nationally to determine licensure as a physical therapist assistant, to ensure public protection, and to measure the competencies needed to perform safely and effectively. “This class formed study groups early on in our program to assist them through the rigors of study. They came in early and stayed late after class, and even came in on weekends to practice skills,” said Erynn Hanford, Assistant Professor of the PTA Program. “In preparation for the exam, they attended a national prep course hosted by Edison State. Following graduation, they also attended study sessions provided by the faculty who are very invested in their success.” Historically, all of the Edison State PTA alumni who have passed the NPTE, have secured employment within six months, giving Edison State a 100 percent employment rate. Graduates who have entered the workforce are providing physical therapy services under the direction of a supervising physical therapist in a variety of settings. “Edison State faculty feel about their students the way they feel about the patients they serve; we are their cheerleaders. We can’t do the job for them, but if they are willing to put in the work, we will support their endeavors to the greatest extent possible,” said Hanford. “Their hard work has paid off, and we can’t be prouder of them for their perseverance in the face of personal struggles and academic challenges. They achieved their goals, and we are excited for each of them as they pursue their future.” According to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, the job outlook for physical therapy assistants is expected to grow by 39.1-percent by the year 2024. The statewide median pay for physical therapist assistants is $59,115 or $28.42 hourly. Students of the PTA program are prepared to work under the direction and supervision of a physical therapist. Physical therapist assistants work as a team to provide rehabilitative activities to various populations, including athletes, amputees, the disabled, and those recovering from an illness or injury. Physical therapy improves daily independence and quality of life by maximizing balance, strength, alignment, coordination, flexibility, and overall mobility. The PTA program resides at Edison State’s newest campus located at 859 West Market Street in Troy. The campus was established to meet the needs of the growing healthcare industry and is positioned to be the center of healthcare education and training in the Upper Miami Valley. PTA faculty worked closely with contractors to establish two brand new laboratories that provide optimal hands-on learning experiences for students. The Physical Therapy Assistant A.A.S. degree program at Edison State Community College is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE). Applications for Edison State’s PTA program are being accepted through Jan. 31 to begin the program in the fall 2020 semester. For more information, or to apply, email ptaprogram@edisonohio.edu or call Melissa Walters, Health Sciences Academic Project Specialist at 937-7787936.

DCRWC makes donation to Blue Star Mothers GREENVILLE – As part of the Darke County Republican Women’s Club’s (DCRWC) recognition of President Trump’s designation of November as Veterans and Military Families Month, members contributed items for the Blue Star Mothers “Holiday Hugs” project. “Even though our November meeting was cancelled, we were still able to collect quite a lot of supplies for the Blue Star Mothers’ Holiday Hugs project. It is such a wonderful program, we were happy to help,” said Betty Hill, DCRWC president. Due to the early snow storm, the club’s November meeting was cancelled.

However, members brought their donations to the Quarter Auction held to benefit the Darke County Veterans Washington D.C. Trip. DCRWC members not only donated supplies, but several members traveled to Eaton to help at the packing party where the Christmas gift boxes were assembled and made ready for mailing. DCRWC is a political group founded to provide political education and legislative information; provide a wider knowledge of the principles of the Republican Party; increase the number of registered Republicans; recruit, promote, and support qualified

Republican women for political office; give exposure to and work actively for all Republican candidates; and lend support to the activities of other Republican organizations. The DCRWC is a multigenerational, multi-cultural organization providing the structure and support for political activists to learn, engage, and flourish. The Club is chartered by the National Federation of Republican Women and is a member of the Ohio Federation of Republican Women.

Student essays recognized PIQUA – Each year, Edison State Community College holds Peace Week on campus to encourage students and community members to reflect on how peace impacts their personal lives, as well as, others’ lives. Following the week-long celebration, students were encouraged to write essays in which they explore their challenges in coming to peace and reconciliation with obstacles they have faced.

liam Loudermilk, coordinator of week-long events at Edison State. “Decisions by the readers were difficult because we had so many excellent essays in which our students approached the topic of peace from a variety of perspectives,” said Loudermilk. Winners defined peace, wrote a eulogy for peace, and detailed an unforgettable visit to Auschwitz. They also approached the subject of peace from pragmatic perspectives and wrote about finding financial peace, escaping a toxic relationship, leaving a reli-

gious group, and defining a healthy approach to weight management and fitness. “I admire the depth of personal reflection that is shared in these essays,” said Edison State President Dr. Doreen Larson. Tied for first place in the competition were Clarissa Kiehl, of Piqua, and Joselyn Monet Garner, of Piqua. Tied for second place were Leah Pistone, of Sidney, and Ashley Wiekert, of Troy. Ryan Williams, of Troy, and Liam Dowling, of Lewisburg, tied for third place. Taylor Collins, of Union City, received an honorable mention.

“We aren’t going to over promise and under deliver to the facilities and patients we’ve already committed to,” Hathaway explained. “As owners, we are as committed to you as you are to us…so one final gift we have to offer going into 2020…for every month you as an employee report to work when scheduled, on time, and have no disciplinary issues, you will get an automatic five-cent per hour raise in addition to any regular performancebase raises. So, just for coming to work and doing a great job, you’ll be making 60 more cents on the hour come next January just for coming to work on time and providing great service to our patients and customers.” “Merry Christmas to each of you and your families,” Guthrie concluded. “This has been an amazing year and we couldn’t have done it without all of you. Let’s now go out and celebrate another great year of success.”

Eikenberry’s IGA supports Empowering GREENVILLE – Mark Davis, president and general manager of Eikenberry’s IGA Foodliners, Greenville, recently presented a check to Bob Robinson, executive director of Empowering Darke County Youth, in support of its programs to help county youth succeed in their educational goals. “We started this program in 2016,” said Robin-

son, “and we’ve been asking individuals, businesses and other organizations for support ever since. I personally have no problem begging on behalf of our kids. “Mark came up to me and said it was time for them to help out,” Robinson continued. “I didn’t have to ask. I can’t tell you how great that feeling is. On behalf of our Board,

our staff, volunteers and especially our kids, we would like to thank Mark and Eikenberry’s IGA for its generosity.” Empowering programs focus on helping students who are struggling with the basics: reading and comprehension, and math. In addition to its Greenville and Ansonia After School Programs, Empowering tutors and

volunteers this year have helped students in three additional school districts in the county. Empowering Darke County Youth is a 501c3 United Way Partner Agency providing After School and Summer Tutoring programs to assist students in the areas of language arts Courtesy photo and math with the goal Mark Davis, president and general manager of Eikenberry’s IGA of Strong Students for a Foodliners (right) presented a check to Bob Robinson, executive Strong Community. director of Empowering Darke County Youth.

Big Buddy Mackenzey Robinson, and Little Buddy Markus Bryant are matched together through Big Brothers Big Sisters’ afterschool Big Buddies program. Mackenzey is the daughter of Amber Robinson and the late Tim Robinson. Markus is the son of Heather Rinderle.

SIDNEY – Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County recently received a grant from the Monarch Machine Tool Company Legacy Fund of The Community Foundation of Shelby County. The grant will help offset the cost of their after-school Big Buddies program during the 2019-2020 school year. Big Buddies is a nine-month commitment where high school freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors volunteer two times per month to mentor elementary students. During these meetings, high school students, under the supervision of Big Brothers Big

Sisters staff, work with one or two children on different educational and recreational activities. The agency is currently utilizing the Peace Education Foundation’s “Peace Works” curriculum which focuses on violence prevention, social & emotional development, conflict resolution, mediation skills, character & values, and bullying prevention. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County was founded in 1977 to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. Their vision is for all youth to achieve their full potential. The non-profit agency

relies on United Way funding, grants, financial contributions, and fundraisers to support their ongoing efforts to mentor at-risk youth. Their next major fundraiser, Bowl for Kids’ Sake, will be held on March 6 and 7, 2020, Bel-Mar Lanes in Sidney and McBo’s Lanes in Versailles. If you would like to make a big difference in the life of a child, either through volunteering, financial contribution, event sponsorship, or event participation; contact the agency at 937-492-7611, 937547-9622, or go to www.bigbrobigsis-shelbydarke.org for more information.

PTK Honor Society induction Nov. 20 PIQUA – Nine new members were inducted into the Edison State Community College Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) during a ceremony on Nov. 20, at the Piqua campus. Each semester, students are invited to join the honor society based on academic criteria. The Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society was established in 1918 to recognize and encourage the academic achievement of two-year college students and provide opportunities for individual growth and development through

honors, leadership, and service programming. New inductees include Hannah Allen, of DeGraff, Brett Burnham, of Piqua, Shelley Fisher, of Troy, Conor Fox, of Greenville, Delores Fox, of Greenville, Maurizia Harvey, of New Knoxville, Brittany Robbins, of Qunicy, Jade Schneider, of Piqua, and Rebecca Spencer, of Ludlow Falls.

* Invest in YOUR community. After receiving their degree or certificate, more than 90 percent of community college students seek job opportunities locally compared to graduates of larger four-year schools, who too often move away from the local hometown to find work. * Scholarships help! While Ohio’s community colleges are affordable, private giving helps increase scholarships and opportunities for more students to get on the path (and stay on the path) to a rewarding new career. * Help close Ohio’s skills gap. Community colleges are playing a critical role in Governor Mike DeWine’s efforts to help more Ohioans get a degree, certificate or credential needed to close the state’s skills gap by developing new programs and training workers for emerging industries. For more information about giving to Edison State Community College, contact Rick Hanes with The Edison Foundation at rhanes@edisonohio.edu or call (937) 778-7806.

needs of community colleges that directly serve their home towns and neighbors,” Hershey said. “After all, Ohio’s community colleges are widely considered the gateway for helping area businesses quickly find skilled workers, while providing students with a low-cost path to a degree or credential required for today’s in-demand jobs. Plus, the average tuition in Ohio for a four-year college is almost $10,000 compared to just under $4,500 at a community college – making a gift to a community college a more powerful return on investment for donors.” Hershey said the OACC is stressing five compelling reasons for giving to a community college: * Donors may be able to take advantage of charitable tax deductions. * Students are appreciative. Many of the students attending community colleges are the first in their family ever to attend college or are nontraditional students, often raising families. The cost of college can be a particular burden to these individuals.

OH-70156307

COLUMBUS – As the 2019 tax year comes to a close and Ohioans are looking for charitablegiving tax deductions, the state’s 23 community colleges are encouraging families to consider making a financial gift to their local college, boosting efforts to help improve student success and advance innovation. “Community colleges provide tremendous value to Ohio families and our overall economy, but there’s a troubling gap between that value and the low level of annual giving those colleges receive,” said Jack Hershey, president and CEO of the Ohio Association of Community Colleges (OACC). “It’s amazing that just one percent of all the annual giving to higher education nationally is directed to community colleges, when those colleges enroll more than 35 percent of all the postsecondary students in the state.” “We want to turn that gap on its head by changing the perception of donors who generously support higher education, but too often overlook the

: Defendants.

Public notice is hereby given that on December 12, 2019, the Treasurer of Darke County, Ohio, filed a Complaint in the Common Pleas Court of Darke County, Ohio, for the foreclosure of liens for delinquent taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest against real property described in that Complaint. The object of the action is to obtain a judgment foreclosing the tax liens and ordering the sale of such real estate for the satisfaction of tax liens. Such action is brought against the real property only and no personal judgment shall be entered in it. However, if the property is sold for an amount that is less than the amount of the delinquent taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest against it, the Court may enter a deficiency judgment against the owner for the deficiency. If that owner of record is a corporation, the Court may enter the deficiency judgment against the stockholder holding a majority of the corporation’s stock. The permanent parcel number of each parcel included in such action; the full street address of the parcel, if available; a description of the parcel as set forth in the associated Delinquent Land Tax Certificate or master list of delinquent tracts; a statement of the amount of the taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest due and unpaid on the parcel; the name and address of the last known owner of the parcel as they appear on the general tax list; and the names and addresses of each lienholder and other person with an interest in the parcel identified in a statutorily required title search relating to the parcel are as follows: Permanent Parcel Number: M51-2-312-12-01-01-12200 Property Description: Darke County Recorder’s Office Official Records Deed Volume 402, Page 1975 Property Address: 124 Elm, Osgood OH Amount of Taxes, Assessment, Charges, Penalties, and Interest Due: $4,979.40 Last Known Owner: Jason Sherman, 4855 Rangeline Rd., Russia OH Lienholders or Other Persons of Interest: Unknown Spouse of Jason Sherman, 4855 Rangeline Rd., Russia OH Unknown Tenant at 124 Elm, Osgood OH Any person claiming any interest in or lien upon, any parcel of real property above listed may file an answer setting forth the nature and amount of interest owned or claimed and any defense or objection to the foreclosure. Such answer shall be filed in the office of the Clerk of Court, and a copy of the answer shall be served on the Prosecuting Attorney, on or before February 7, 2020, (twenty-eight days after the date of final publication of this notice). If no answer is filed on or before the last day for filing an answer, a judgment of foreclosure will be taken by default. Any parcel as to which a foreclosure is taken by default shall be sold for the satisfaction of the taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest, and the costs incurred in the foreclosure proceeding, which are due and unpaid. At any time prior to the filing of an Entry of Confirmation of Sale, any owner, or lienholder of, or other person with an interest in the parcel listed in the Complaint may redeem the parcel by tendering to the Treasurer the full amount of the taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest due and unpaid on the parcel, together with all costs incurred in the proceeding. Upon the filing of an entry confirming the sale of the parcel, there shall be no further equity of redemption. After the filing of any such entry, any person claiming any interest in or lien upon the parcel shall be forever barred and foreclosed of any interest in and equity of redemption in the parcel.

GREENVILLE – Director of the Fish Choice Pantry, Kristy Cutarelli, was the guest speaker at The Greenville Business & Professional Women’s (BPW) Club Dec. 12 Christmas meeting. The meeting was hosted by the Christmas Committee with chair Desteni Mason and members Kristina Heath, Angie DeGideo, Holly Lovely and Maria Moore and held at the Brethren Retirement Center. Maria Moore introduced Kristi Cutarelli to the club. Cutarelli shared their mission: The Fish Choice Pantry provides emergency food to Darke County residents in time of need. The organization was started in 1967 with 6 couples who were community minded citizens. It was originally called “The Fish”. The Mitten Tree was added after a few years. Originally their main assistance was with food and utility bills. In 2001 home deliveries were started. In 2009 they moved from the home of Hazel Blanchard to a building on Gray Avenue. They became a ‘choice’ pantry and a 501c3 nonprofit so businesses could donate and have a tax exemption. In 2012 they moved to their current location of 400 Markwith. Cutarelli said currently home deliveries are made 5 days a week.
