Local church merger launched

By Linda Moody

DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE — Two local churches, Lighthouse Christian Center and Radiant Church will be launching its partnership on Sunday, Jan. 19, at the Lighthouse Christian on Lighthouse Way, just off U.S. 127-South on Sebring-Warner Road.

Pastor Hershel Fee, of Lighthouse, and Pastor Wes Lynch of Radiant, decided to join forces and call their new church, Radiant Lighthouse.

They will be co-pastors of the church.

“We are going to launch this on Sunday,” said Lynch, who has been holding Radiant’s service at the All Seasons Place on the Lighthouse complex. “On Easter Sunday and thereafter, the church will hold its Sunday services at the All Seasons Place.”

Radiant Church had its beginnings April 6, 2019, first meeting at the Softball Academy on Riffle Avenue in Greenville, with 45 people in attendance.

Because they were running out of room and had no heating or air conditioning, decided to look elsewhere, and that’s when they began renting out the All Seasons Place

in September.

“Then, we had 85 people coming to our Saturday night services,” Lynch said. “My pastoring teaches people how to be the church with outreaching. We had legacy in Darke County with Lighthouse Christian Church while Radiant has momentum.”

Both of the churches are non-denominational, independent churches.

“Our mission and vision is love God, follow Jesus and illuminate darkness,” he continued.

“We want to be a light in Darke County.”

Thus, their name evolved….Radiant Lighthouse.

“We had 120 people last Sunday together,” according to Lynch. “We have been doing preview services the last couple of Sundays together. Our services last from 10 to 11 a.m.”

Lighthouse Christian Center had its beginnings in 1980. Their first service was in a local home and then they moved to Greenville High School cafeteria before buying a former church on Wayne Avenue.

“When we first met, we had about 12 people,” Fee said. “At the cafeteria, we grew to 30 people and See MERGER | 3

is glad he took over the directorship. “Midmark was a job; I am helping someone up here. It makes it easy when you enjoy it.”

A father, grandfather and soon-to-be a great-grandfather for the first time, Jenkins has been a father figure to many of the children who visit there over the years.

“Some kids have asked

me to be their dad,” he said.

The club has served Greenville and Darke County since 1941, and is now located at 613 S. Broadway.

It is open from 4 to 8 p.m.

Monday through Thursday and from 1 to 4 pm. on Saturdays. Hours vary sometimes due to activities or field trips.

Pastors Wes Lynch, on the left, and Hershel Fee are merging their churches and will launch that new venture on Sunday at the former Lighthouse Christian Center off of Sebring-Warner from U.S. 127South. They are naming the new church Radiant Lighthouse. The service will be held at the original building at the north end of the complex, starting at 10 a.m.

“My son, Tommy, and I walked by the place one day and he pointed in there,” Jenkins said. “He saw all the video games and pool tables. We went in.”

From then on, they spent a lot of time there together.

“Jeff Miller was looking for help and asked if I would be interested,” said the Midmark retiree, who

from the new levy.

Under the original levy, DCP has given back over $800,000 to Darke County communities to support their parks. From playground equipment to benches and more, DCP has offered grants to the communities to help improve their local parks. All villages and the city of Greenville have been eligible to receive these funds. Van Frank expects this practice to continue if voters approve the new levy.

Van Frank was excited to announce DCP is not resting on its laurels and is currently looking to add to the district’s properties and educational opportunities. Throughout 2020 and into 2021, DCP will be working with the Friends of Bear’s Mill to make Bear’s Mill a new park in DCP’s evergrowing list of parks. Van Frank and the park commission believe this property fits in perfectly with the park’s mission. The 175-year-old mill needs thousands of dollars in repair and the Friends of Bear’s Mill are currently conducting a capital

GREENVILLE POLICE BEAT

Officers make DUI arrests; locate wanted persons told the officer she did not see the how a specific test was scientific and she did not want to perform any more tests. Miller started to walk back toward the driver’s door of her vehicle. While walking she was arguing and acting in a aggravated manner.

At that point, Miller was placed under arrest and advised of her rights. Her vehicle was parked legally on Devor Street near Washington Avenue at the time of her arrest, so the vehicle was left at the scene. Miller was transported to the Greenville Police Department where she consented to a chemical breathalyzer test, but there was an issue with the equipment. She was transported to the Versailles Police Department, where results of the test showed Miller’s BAC level was .160 percent. She was placed under an administrative license suspension.

Due to Miller visiting from Toledo, she was transported to the Darke County Jail for booking before being taken to the Miami County Jail for holding.

On Jan. 14 an officer saw a vehicle in the Taco Bell drive through, 1120 Russ Rd. The vehicle was about to leave the drive through lane when the officer passed by and the vehicle came to a complete stop. The officer pulled into the Rural King parking lot and saw the vehicle pull away from the

Taco Bell drive through into the Taco Bell parking lot. During this time, all the exterior lights to Taco Bell were off to show they were closed. After leaving the Taco Bell parking lot, the vehicle went directly to the McDonald’s parking lot and backed into a spot. The operator of the vehicle turned off the lights to the vehicle.

The officer drove away from the businesses and when he was no longer in site, the vehicle left McDonald’s. The officer was able to get behind the vehicle in the 500 block of Wagner Avenue and saw the vehicle fail to signal before entering into the left turn lane in front of 423 Wagner Ave. A traffic stop was made and the officer approached the vehicle and identified the operator of the vehicle as Gary Williams III. He also had a male passenger in the vehicle. While speaking with Williams, the officer observed his eyes were bloodshot and glassy. His speech also was slurred and there was an odor of alcohol on his breath.

When asked how much he had to drink, Williams said he’d consumed one 22 oz. beer about an hour before. The officer also asked Williams where he was coming from and he said a friend’s house on Deshler Avenue. The officer asked Williams why he had been seen parked in front of Danny’s bar about 15-20 minutes prior to the

traffic stop. Williams then changed his story and said he was at Danny’s for about 30 minutes before trying to go get food.

Through LEADS/NCIC it was confirmed Williams was under a license suspension through Indiana and Ohio. He was suspended through Indiana on Jan. 9, 2020, for excessive points violation and through Ohio from Feb. 19, 2018 to indefinite on a non-compliance suspension. Williams was asked to exit the vehicle to perform a set of standardized field sobriety tests, in which he consented.

While speaking with Williams about the tests, the officer noticed he was swaying back and forth, as well as side to side, and seemed unbalanced. Williams also showed lack of convergence in both eyes during the related test and was unable to follow instructions. Williams performed poorly on the standardized field sobriety tests and was arrested before being asked to submit to a chemical test.

Afterwards Williams also was asked to submit to a chemical breath test. He was transported to the Versailles Police Department for testing due to Greenville’s Intoxilyzer being out of service. Williams had a concentration of sixteen-hundredths of one gram by weight of alcohol per two hundred ten liters of the person’s breath. Williams was

Wanted Person On Jan. 11 an officer pulled into the parking lot of Speedway at 201 Wagner Ave. and observed Stephen Bright standing with another subject in the front of the building. The officer was familiar with both subjects and needed to speak to Bright about a previous case. After speaking with Bright, the officer asked dispatch to check to see if the subject had any outstanding warrants. Dispatch reported Bright had had two warrants from Montgomery County, with a total bond of $7,000.

One warrant was for a shoplifting charge through New Lebanon Police Department. The other was for failure to appear on a traffic violation charge through Oakwood Police Department. Bright was arrested on East Main Street near Imo Boulevard and was transported to the county line and released to an officer with the New Lebanon Police Department.

On Jan. 13 two officers were in the Subway parking lot at 325 Martin St. when they observed two females riding eastbound

DUI On Jan. 12 an officer observed a vehicle being operated on South Broadway Street in the area of Washington Avenue. When the vehicle was turning right onto Washington Avenue the operator failed to use the required turn signal. The officer also observed the vehicle travel to the left of the center double yellow line on the road. The vehicle was almost entirely in the opposite lane of travel before moving back to the correct lane of travel. When the officer initiated a traffic stop, the operator attempted to stop the vehicle in the middle of the road, but then nudged forward as if the vehicle was going to take off again. The vehicle finally came to a stop and the officer confirmed the operator to be Terri Miller. While speaking with Miller, the officer observed she had blood shot eyes and the odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath.

When asked how much she had to drink, Miller said she’d had about five beers during the past four hours. She told the officer the reason for her erratic driving was because she was lost and was not from the area. The officer asked Miller to submit to a set of standardized field sobriety tests, and she consented. Miller stumbled as she exited the vehicle and at one point

GREENVILLE – The Rossburg Volunteer Fire Department is the latest recipient of a generous foundation grant that’s designed to make lifesaving Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) more accessible to the public.

The fire department received four AEDs, which they intend to place in their facilities and trucks and use when responding to cardiac emergencies in their coverage area, which includes the Eldora Speedway, located just north of the village.

Every year in the U.S., there are more than 356,000 sudden cardiac arrests1, and without defibrillation, a victim’s chance of survival decreases by 7-10 percent for every minute that passes.

With portable AEDs, if someone has a sudden cardiac arrest, and an AED is nearby, a trained responder or bystander can simply attach the self-sticking pads to that person’s chest.

The AED does the rest; it reads that person’s heart rhythm and

Help needed to clean up county

Poultry Days announces festival theme

GREENVILLE – Do you want to help Darke County look it’s best? Join the Darke County Solid Waste District in its 12th annual Darke County “Trash Bash” Community Clean-up Day on Saturday and Sunday, April 18 and 19.

By participating, you help create a good impression on prospective employers, retail businesses, professionals, and others who visit our “clean” county.

A recent survey conducted by Keep America Beautiful, Inc. indicated that 48 percent of Americans admit to littering in the past 10 years. What’s worse, a separate poll showed that 30 percent of youths, aged 8-14, said they don’t care about litter.

VERSAILLES – In advance of the upcoming festival, and to allow parade and festival preparation, the Poultry Days Board is proud to announce the 2020 theme. The 2020 festival theme is a salute to all those hard-working drivers, dispatchers and mechanics who keep the freight moving and have contributed to the growth of Versailles. The 2020 festival theme is “Loaded Up & Cluckin”.

Think trucker hats, CB radios, and movies like “Convoy” and “Smokey and the Bandit” for a fun way to celebrate. The theme was selected by 2020 Festival Chairman Lucas Subler. The theme artwork is being drafted by local artist Quincy Baltes and will be released closer to the festival. All bands have been selected and the board is still accepting nominations for the Honorary Parade Marshal.

Festival Chairman Lucas Subler has been on the Poultry Days Board of Directors for nine years. Lucas is employed at Classic Carriers, is a Versailles graduate and attended Bowling Green State University.

Lucas resides in Versailles with his wife Courtney, and children Ariel, Kathryn and Alexander.

Versailles’ 69th annual Poultry Days Festival will be held June 12, 13, and 14. As one of Ohio’s oldest festivals, this event celebrates the area’s poultryproducing history and its sense of community. The board welcomes everyone to visit Versailles and enjoy the festival. Registration information for Miss Chick and other festival events will be posted as available at www.versaillespoultrydays.com

There are solutions to the litter problem. An aggressive approach towards keeping an area clean is a simple and effective measure. Everyone deserves to live in a community that is healthy, safe, clean and beautiful, and we all have a role to play in achieving this goal.

Through volunteer efforts, clean-up will be focused on approximately 600 miles of Darke County’s most traveled county and township roads. These roads were chosen with the help of Darke County Engineer James Surber and County Highway Garage Superintendent Shane Coby.

“Litter brings more litter,” Krista Fourman, Solid Waste District director,

said. “The cleaner you keep a place, the less chance it will be littered. I think you pick up less litter if you keep an area clean. It’s easier for people to throw litter where they see tons of other litter.”

How can you participate?

The Darke County Community Clean-Up day is scheduled for April 18 and 19, rain or shine. The collection is set to begin at 8 a.m. The district is looking for numerous groups of 4-6 to “pound the pavement” at their assigned two-mile locations picking-up bags of trash and recyclables.

Clean-up groups can be started with friends from school, work, church, and volunteer organizations or clubs and there’s no age limit for volunteers. Call

the district at 937-547-0827 to for more information.

Sign-up forms can also be found on the district’s website: www.co.darke.oh.us/ solidwaste. Forms must be turned in by March 6, 2020.

Each group will be given black bags for trash and clear bags for recyclables.

For separating the recyclables from the trash, each group will be awarded $75 (per 2+/- mile section) for participating. Awards will be given to Darke County non-profit organizations only. There is no limit to the number of groups that an organization can enter.

County highway employees will follow assigned routes and will pick-up bags left on the targeted collection roads on April 20, 2020.

Reid Health reaccredited by HFA program

STEVE MAITLEN, CPA Friendly & Professional Accounting Services • Small Business Accounting • Individual Income Tax Returns • Payroll Service GREENVILLE, OH 45331 • 548-0747 Hours: 9-5 M-F • Expanded During Tax Season

RICHMOND, Ind. – Reid Health has again received a full three-year accreditation from the Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program (HFAP), including new service locations in Connersville. The survey involves an extensive on-site review of quality and safety standards, including the overall environment of care.

“Reid Health clearly demonstrates a commitment to quality and patient safety,” said Meg Gravesmill, CEO of AAHHS, HFAP’s non-profit parent company.

“We base our decision on the findings of an extensive and thorough onsite review of the hospital and specific departments against recognized national standards for patient safety, quality improvement, and environmental safety. Reid Health has earned the distinction of HFAP accreditation through its performance in successfully meeting those standards.”

“We owe our continued success in accreditation reviews to the quality and diligence of our medical staff along with our expert clinical and non-clinical staff. These team members continually strive to provide excellent, compassionate care that meets or exceeds HFAP standards,” said Craig Kinyon, Reid Health President/CEO. “Earning HFAP accreditation is a significant

achievement that recognizes our commitment to providing outstanding care to our patients and our community. In fact, quality is consistently the priority focus in our strategic plans and goals.”

Jennifer Ehlers, Vice President/ Chief Quality Officer, said the HFAP accreditation is regularly sought and obtained in what is a continual process to maintain quality and excellence. She noted the accreditation includes Connersville locations that were taken on in July when Reid Health acquired most of the assets of Fayette Regional Health System. “It takes all 3300 of our employees working diligently, and our Connersville teams rose to the challenge during a time of major transition to ensure compliance with these rigorous standards,” she said. “The goal is to achieve the highest standards of care and safety for our patients and their families.”

HFAP is a nationally recognized program of AAHHS offering accreditation and specialty certifications to serve a range of healthcare organizations. Originally established in 1945, HFAP is the original healthcare accreditation program in the United States. HFAP holds deeming authority from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and also is recognized by state gov-

ernments and regulatory bodies, and insurers.

HFAP’s mission is to be the valued partner for healthcare organizations committed to improving their quality of care, through accreditation/certification standards and continuing education, with a focus on advancing the health and welfare of their communities. For more information, visit www.hfap.org.

The survey team was in Richmond and Connersville earlier this year and spent four days on site reviewing compliance with multiple standards in areas that include medical staff, nursing and patient care, infection control, pharmacy procedures, medical records, building safety, staff qualifications and more.

Reid Health and specific departments and service lines also maintain numerous other accreditations, Ehlers said, with HFAP and the Indiana Department of Health being among the most extensive.

“The purpose of all of them is to continue a culture of excellence.”

Reid Health has been accredited

by HFAP for nearly 18 years, participating in six surveys. Ehlers said a Reid Health team member is assigned to own each standard and works to ensure they are met, noting that all standards are continually monitored.

Sunday, January 19, 2020 5A

School Choice Week begins January 26 COLUMBUS – Joining more than a dozen governors and hundreds of city and county leaders nationwide in issuing similar proclamations, Gov. Mike DeWine officially recognized Jan. 26-Feb. 1 as School Choice Week in Ohio.

Ohio parents, schools, and other organizers have independently planned 2,761 events and activities across the state this year, including pep rallies, festivals, informational sessions, and more. The state’s largest events include school fairs in Lima and Toledo. All events are designed to spark conversations about the educational opportunities parents have, or want to have, for their children.

“Ohio families are raising their voices loud and clear in this celebration of education and we’re inspired by that,” said Andrew Campanella, president of National School Choice Week.

As a nonpartisan, nonpolitical public awareness effort, National School Choice Week shines a positive spotlight on effective education options for students, families, and communities around the country. From Jan. 26 through Feb. 1, more than 50,000 independently-planned events will be held in celebration of the week.

I started the year out on a positive note, because I ate sauerkraut, sausage and mashed potatoes at midnight New Year’s Eve, without any problem. (I love sauerkraut but we don’t always get along.)

Now, I’m two weeks into it (2020), and I am questioning life itself. I know I’m in my last chapter in life and want to make the most of it for myself as well as son Jamie.

There have been some hurdles with some family and friends with health issues, and I don’t want anything bad to happen to anyone. Sure, I would like them to get treatment for whatever their ailments are, but I am not the judge, and know that it is up to them as to how they handle it. Just hoping they put it in God’s hands, because that’s all we can do.

So far this year, the weather hasn’t been too bad. For those who know me, know I’m not that fond of winter but I have to love and respect Mother Nature and God’s plan for us. Just as long as I don’t have to walk or drive on ice or drive through whiteouts and such, I’m okay. I can always stay inside and work from home, if we have power.

Coach Gray used his entire bench in the fourth with the Lady Patriots’ starters not seeing the court after the 5-minute mark to take the final period 16-14 for a 62-point Cross County Conference win.

“In the fourth quarter we had some younger kids in there playing and trying to get their feet wet,” Gray noted. “I am sure they were a little nervous, but I am pleased with the overall effort.”

“When you can get everybody in and try to bring them along – we have three of our kids that play 4-quarters of JV, so anytime you can get them in the varsity atmosphere and try to get their feet wet because we’re going to be relying on those kids next year,” added Coach Gray.

“We have to get them as much time as we can at the varsity level when we have those opportunities.”

TIPP CITY – It is estimated 1,078 Ohio children fall victim to human trafficking yearly, and another 3,016 children are at-risk. This is not okay! Human trafficking happens within our communities.

“As a Darke Countian, I would be naive to say this doesn’t affect my rural community. Human trafficking is not limited to the big cities; it touches small communities as well. We must not bury our heads in the sand, but help prevent this atrocity!” says Caitlin Miller, Miller Flowers.

Haley Garber, Beauty

By Haley Garber, joins Miller in hosting the Southwest Ohio AntiHuman Trafficking Community Awareness Event, to offer training to the community. “Nearly all of us have heard of human trafficking by now and

the horror that it is, but often we don’t know what to do about it or even fully understand what it is. By taking time out of one day to learn and connect with other people who also are actively fighting this we set ourselves up for a future of prevention and safety. Knowing the facts help us protect those we love and keep our communities safe,” said Haley.

This event will take place on Feb. 8, 9 a.m.-2 p.m., at the Tipp City Community Center, 855 N. Third St., Tipp City.

This event is to equip and train professionals, parents, and youth to recognize the signs of trafficking. It will include a representative from She Has a Name, Columbus. This is a community of abolitionists that exists to fight human

trafficking through education, collaboration, and survivor care. https:// shehasaname.org/ Stephanie Rollins is the prevention education coordinator at Gracehaven House. Gracehaven is Ohio’s only faithbased safe house near Columbus, working with rescued girls under 18. www.gracehaven.me Brandi Schindler, Dayton, director of Child Internet Safety for Human Trafficking Essentials, LLC, will be focusing on social media safety.

This event includes lunch and is $10 per person. Purchase tickets online at https:// www.eventbrite.com/o/ caitlin-miller-amp-haleygarber-28894361549. For a complete list of sessions, visit https://www. facebook.com/events/ 482054879088207/

Premier Health is first CENTERVILLE – Premier Health is the first health system in the United States to offer a new Phase III study for women who have been newly diagnosed with Stage III or IV BRCA negative ovarian cancer.

This clinical trial, KEYLYNK-001, examines how the addition of a cancer immunotherapy drug, Keytruda, and an oral prescription medication known as a PARP inhibitor, Lynparza, to standard chemotherapy affect progression-free survival (living with a disease without it worsening) and overall survival.

“There is a growing body of data on the use of PARP inhibitors and immuno-

therapy in ovarian cancer with positive results,” said Michael Guy, MD, a boardcertified gynecologic oncologist at Premier Gynecologic Oncology. “This new Phase III clinical trial will provide important insights in the use of these newer medications to improve outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed disease.

We are proud to offer this exceptional study to our patients in the Miami Valley and honored to be the first in the country to provide such trials.”

Research has shown that the majority of women diagnosed with advanced stage ovarian cancer have a 39 percent five-year sur-

In the trial, all study subjects will receive six cycles of standard chemotherapy with or without Keytruda.

Patients also undergo surgery for their cancer at the discretion of a physician during this initial phase.

After the first six cycles, patients will be randomly assigned for up to two years to one of three arms of the study: Keytruda and a Lynparza pill; Keytruda and a Lynparza placebo; or Keytruda and Lynparza placebos.

The Phase III study is another way that Premier Health’s comprehensive cancer care team offers patients and their families compassionate, specialized care. Located at Miami Valley Hospital South, the physicians at Premier Gynecologic Oncology.

SOHC sends two to bereavement training GREENVILLE – Two staff members from State of the Heart Care, Bereavement Specialist Sarah Depoy and Social Services Manager Erin Meyer, recently attended the Comprehensive Bereavement Skills Training in Scottsdale, Ariz.

The conference was led by world-renowned grief counselor, author, and educator Dr. Alan Wolfelt.

With only 36 attendees, this was a very personable gathering that allowed for great conversations and breakout sessions on a smaller scale.

Seminars during the conference covered topics on becoming more familiar with the grief process, enhancing abilities to relate to the grieving person or family, developing new skills to cope with personal feelings related to death and grief, and heightening awareness of resources in the areas of death, dying, grief, and bereavement.

According to Dr. Wolfelt, he believes in “com-

Ohio Treasurer opens Ag-LINK program until March 20 COLUMBUS – To help Ohio farmers and agribusinesses finance the up-front costs of this year’s growing season, Ohio Treasurer Robert Sprague opened the application period for the Ag-LINK program. The application period will remain open until March 20.

“Our office is committed to supporting Ohio’s farmers and agribusinesses, especially as we follow an extremely tough growing season last year,” said Treasurer Sprague.

“Through Ag-LINK, we’re able to alleviate some of the borrowing costs our ag industry faces at the beginning of each year.”

Through this application period, farm operators and agribusiness owners based in Ohio can receive an interest rate reduction on loans up to $150,000. Although the exact amount of the discount will be provided to lenders in late March, the minimum one percent discount announced by Treasurer Sprague in February 2019 remains in place.

The Ohio Treasurer’s office administers the Ag-LINK program to help Ohio farm operators and other agricultural businesses finance the up-front operating costs for feed, seed, fertilizer, fuel, and other costs. Ag-LINK provides an interest rate reduction on agriculture business operation loans at eligible banks and farm credit lenders.

Ag-LINK has been supporting Ohio’s farm community since 1986. The application period typically takes place early in the year prior to the start of the growing season.

However, in 2019, Treasurer Sprague reopened Ag-LINK to alleviate some of the borrowing costs for farm operators as they worked their way through a difficult year caused by extreme weather. During the two application periods, the Treasurer’s office helped 780 farmers and agribusinesses lower their interest rates for new loans totaling more than $86.5 million. Additionally, 74 farmers and agribusinesses refinanced previous loans totaling $8.6 million.

Those interested in Ag-LINK should contact their aglender to begin the online loan application process. More information on the Ag-LINK program can be found on the Ohio Treasurer’s website.

DID YOU KNOW? Each person has in its DNA that which differs from any other person. That unique genetic instruction is there at conception. If someone says you are special you in fact are.

The human brain contains 86 billion brain cells. The vast majority are produced in the womb as the baby develops.

The remaining cells are produced in the few months following birth.

The Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 states, “It is self-evident that all persons are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, among these are LIFE”. . .

The 14th Amendment to the Constitution reads in part, “No state shall make or enforce a law which shall deprive a person of LIFE without due process of law”.

The Supreme Court deprived the unborn of their right to life when they legalized abortion January 22, 1973 in the Roe v. Wade decision. Since 60 million children have lost their life.

Since the Supreme Court decision, states have pushed back hard to lessen its effects. Ohio has banned abortion after 20 weeks. While abortion deaths have dropped to their lowest level since Roe v. Wade, there were 20,425 in Ohio in 2018 and nationally 860,000.

At the end of life, the assisted suicide agenda is gaining momentum. Since 1997, eight states & DC have legalized the practice. It is not safe and it is not healthcare. Reporting from states is suspiciously incomplete. As in abortion, assisted suicide violates the Hippocratic Oath.

How can I make a difference?

Be a part of the pro-life position that shows in National Polls that we are gaining the lead.

By standing up for LIFE by joining Right to Life or supporting other pro-life groups.

It’s all about making one’s efforts count

By Bethany J. Royer-DeLong DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE — It’s all about making one’s recycling efforts count, said Molly Yeager Broadwater, Corporate Communications Manager with the Greenville Rumpke Waste and Recycling Center, on Monday.

Broadwater pointed out the various items that did and did not belong in a community recycling drop-off container outside the Rumpke Center on Jaysville-St. Johns Road. It is one of over two dozen found across Darke County, including Ansonia, Gettysburg, and even Willowdell. Inside were stacks of cardboard, newspaper, various juice and milk jugs, and a variety of metal cans — perfectly recyclable items.

However, items such as Styrofoam, feedstock and pellet fuel bags, and even a sour cream container did not belong, explained Broadwater. The items either cannot be accepted or reused by a perspective enduser [retailer] or contaminate the other material.

The number one problem, said Broadwater, is plastic bags, as well-intentioned individuals generally collect their recyclables in trash bags.

“Ideally, when you bring it to the dropbox, you should empty it,” continued Broadwater. Otherwise, when the bags reach the recycling center in Cincinnati, each one must be broke open by hand. It is a time-consuming endeavor, as workers “try to shake out all that material.”

According to Broadwater, there are 92 full-time permanent team members and 36 temporary team members at the recycling plant. They work across three shifts, processing 60 tons of recyclables per hour or 600 to 700 tons a day.

“It’s flying across,” explained Broadwater of the fast-paced sorting process. “We need things to be loose.”

Plastic bags cause other difficulties for the plant with the first few hours of the second shift, maintenance, dedicated to removing plastic bags caught in the machinery. Some of those bags include one-use plastic shopping bags that are unrecyclable because end-users request only those in clean, dry, and likenew condition, something Rumpke cannot guarantee.

At the back of the Rumpke Center on Jaysville, piles of residentially collected recyclables wait for their eventual 90-minute journey south to the sorting facility. The first thing one will notice is the sheer number of trash bags full of recyclables.

“We just don’t know what’s inside of it. When we open it at the plant, there could be all kinds of contamination there,” said Broadwater with everything from clothing (which isn’t recyclable) to food items See EFFORTS | 3B

You are hereby notified that on the 4th day of December, 2019 Jennifer & Brett Godown, filed in this Court a Petition for Adoption of Dustin Tyler Jeffries, Jr., a minor, whose date of birth is 9/11/2017.

This Court, located at 300 Garst Ave., Greenville, Ohio 45331 will hear the Petition on the 20th day of February, 2020 at 1:30 P.M. It is alleged in the petition, pursuant to R.C. 3107.07, that the consent of James McCloy & Britney Fitch is not required due to the following: That person is a parent who has failed without justifiable cause to provide more than de minimis contact and support with/for the minor for a period of at least one year immediately preceding the filing of the adoption petition or the placement of the minor in the home of the petitioner.

“A FINAL DECREE OF ADOPTION, IF GRANTED, WILL RELIEVE YOU OF ALL PARENTAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO CONTACT THE MINOR, TERMINATE ALL LEGAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE MINOR AND YOU AND THE MINOR’S OTHER RELATIVES, SO THAT THE MINOR THERE AFTER IS A STRANGER TO YOU AND THE MINOR’S FORMER RELATIVES FOR ALL PURPOSES.

Boosters plan Prom Dress Exchange VERSAILLES – On Sunday, Jan. 26, the Versailles Music Boosters will be hosting its fourth annual Prom and Homecoming Dress Exchange. The event will be held at Versailles High School, 280 Marker Road, in the cafetorium.

People are asked to use door 19 (off State Route 185).

With the previous three exchanges considered a success, it was decided to hold the event again this year. With people bringing dresses from all over the

surrounding counties, there will most assuredly be a plethora of styles to choose from. Private dressing rooms will be available for girls to try on the dresses they are interested in purchasing.

The Music Boosters will use the proceeds from the dress exchange to help fund the vocal and instrumental music departments.

Girls wishing to sell their dresses, shoes and accessories will need to bring them to the school between 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. There

will be a fee of $7 per dress and $3 per pair of shoes and $3 for each accessory the girls wish to display for sale. Girls will then be free to price their items as they wish and keep the sale money if the dress/items are sold.

Admission is free and the doors will open to the public from 1-3 p.m. for shopping. Please remember, this sale is cash only and all sales are final.

For more information, please inquire at musicboostersvhs@gmail.com.

PIQUA – With the support of state initiatives, Edison State Community College continues to thrive, experiencing an ongoing enrollment increase while other higher education institutions are flat or down in enrollment. This spring, the college is reporting an 8.46-percent increase in overall headcount and a 5.21-percent growth in credit hours.

One major area of increase is in the number of students taking classes who are ages 25 and older.

This growth can be attributed to such state-funded grant initiatives as the Ohio Higher Education Finish for Your Future Adult Promise and the Ohio Strong Start to Finish initiative.

“The current administration recognizes and supports the role of community colleges in closing the skills gap. Governor Mike DeWine and Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted are committed to developing resources for building effective partnerships. This is good news for Edison State and our students,” said Edison State President Dr. Doreen Larson.

The Ohio Strong Start to Finish (OhioSSF) initiative encourages students to complete

gateway mathematics and English courses as part of a guided pathway within their first academic year.

OhioSSF is also committed to reducing equity gaps for economically disadvantaged students, students of color, rural students, and students over age 25.

The goal of the Ohio Higher Education Finish for Your Future Adult Promise Initiative is to increase the population of adults over age 25 enrolled in public higher education from the current 27-percent to at least 40-percent by 2025. Additionally, Finish for Your Future strives to close the equity gaps between underrepresented minorities and adults in enrollment and completion.

Another contributing factor to this particular area of growth is Edison State’s workforce efforts.

Edison State continues to work closely with regional employers to listen to their needs and develop the necessary programming to support their needs.

By participating in these state initiatives along with workforce efforts, Edison State has been able to contribute to the outlined goals, and ultimately, an increase in the number of students ages 25 and over.

Greenville Early Bird

Empowering program is an opportunity GREENVILLE – “Being a part of Greenville’s Empowering After School Tutoring Program was an opportunity of a lifetime,” said one of 38 Edison State Greenville Campus students who participated in the Empowering Darke County Youth program last fall. The student added she believes she has helped at least one child increase his or her grade in school… and to be proud of the accomplishment.

Other Edison State students were equally proud.

“Seeing them (the children) grow in their learning is amazing and makes you feel good that you are helping,” said one. And another… “I regularly heard the kids talking excitedly about getting their grades up, or even just passing a test.”

One student said she is rethinking her career choice as a result of her experience. She is not the only one to reconsider career options. A classmate, whose first love is sports, said, “Tutoring was an awesome experience. Helping children has opened my eyes to possibly being a coach in my future.”

The Empowering After School and Summer Tutoring programs were started to help elementary and middle school students struggling in the core basics of reading, comprehension and math. Who better to help them than college students who have

kids taught me as much as I taught them. Getting involved in the education of these remarkable kids truly was a privilege.”

Empowering Darke County Youth conducts After School Programs in Greenville and Ansonia.

Big Brothers Big Sisters, with its volunteers, provides its mentoring support to Greenville students two days a month. Empowering Summer Tutoring programs are open to all students in Darke County.

The program continues to fine-tune its approach to help students struggling with their academics, but the need continues to exceed the program’s resources. This is the time of year when individuals, organizations and businesses consider their giving options; please considCourtesy photo er supporting Empowering Edison State volunteers have worked in Empowering tutoring programs since 2016.

Lions hear results of Christmas display

Union City announces first semester honor roll

There were 6,700 cars that drove through the park between Thanksgiving and the end of the year. That was an increase of over 1,200 cars from 2018. Donations totaled $23,324.53 for 2019, up just over $5,000 from the year before. The gift shop was a hit again bringing in about $7,500 for the vendors who were there, and Santa and Mrs. Claus were enjoyed by many kids and parents alike. Groups from the area manned the gates in the evening and were given 25 percent of the gate receipts from that night. The Union City

Lions manned the gates on two different occasions and saw just over 1,000 cars come through the park and raised $953 for the club. The 3-D glasses that enhanced the lights were sold and were a hit, especially with the kids.

Larry thanked many people and organizations that helped with the display.

The Randolph County Tourism Bureau provided funds for a billboard along I-70. Larry said in the first four days after the sign went up A Community Christmas had 130,000 hits on social media. A group of people repainted

all the “cards” in the park and a $4,400 grant from the Community Foundation of Randolph County, Inc. will help to fund a new sound system.

Mayor Chad Spence spoke of the “humble beginnings” of A Community Christmas 15 years ago and how it has grown and informed the Lions Club there is an effort underway to turn the bridge in the park into a covered bridge. Mayor Spence would like the bridge to be dedicated to all former and current Lions Club members in Union City.

We promote independence, healthful lifestyles, dignity and a sense of security! Helping our residents live a fulfilling lifestyle is an important part of our mission.

Brethren Retirement Community is home to teachers, grandparents, decorated war veterans, writers, artists, homemakers, and nurses—and that’s just the beginning.

EACH OF OUR RESIDENTS HAS A UNIQUE HISTORY! 750 Chestnut St, Greenville, Ohio
