ANSONIA — Ted Adkins was sworn in as the new mayor of Ansonia at the council meeting Tuesday evening, with Attorney Travis Fliehman officiating at the ceremony.

Adkins had been on village council for nine years, not long after he moved to town.

Does he have any immediate plans for council?

“I have some things in mind,” he said. “Most everything is working good. There will be just a few changes.”

Fliehman also swore in Jeff Gariety as councilman and Dan Brown, who was reinstated to council. Brown, who like Adkins ran for mayor in the general election in 2019, agreed to stay on as councilman.

Now, there is one vacancy on the council to fill Adkins’ seat, and Village Administrator Tom Welbaum reported there are four people who have expressed an interest in filling that seat, adding it could possibly be filled in several more weeks.

Adkins had some supporters at the swearing-in, including wife Stephanie and 15 1/2-year-old son Mason.

The Adkins couple and her parents, Terry and Barb Hess, are co-owners of Ansonia Auto Parts.

“I worked there for Mark Kramer for 12 years when it was located at the Middleton building,” said the 48-yearold mayor who is a 1989 graduate of Ansonia High School.

“I worked there for about five years and then Terry and I moved into the Coppess store in May 2004. I’ve worked See ADKINS | 4

Greenville Early Bird

GREENVILLE POLICE BEAT Pursuit On Jan. 8, an officer was on patrol in the city of Greenville.

While traveling westbound on East Fifth Street, the officer was behind a white vehicle known to be operated by Dustin B. Clark, who had an active warrant for failure to appear on an original charge of driving under suspension. From previous dealings with Clark, the officer could positively identify him as the driver through the reflection in the driver’s side mirror. At the intersection of East Fifth Street and Walnut Street, the officer activated the overhead emergency lights to initiate a traffic stop on the vehicle. Clark failed to pull over and turned northbound onto South Broadway Street. While still following Clark with the emergency lights on, the officer activated the audible horn and siren multiple times in an attempt to get him to pull over. Clark continued to ignore both the visible and audible signals to stop.

In approximately the 500 block of East Fourth Street, the officer turned the siren on constant and notified dispatch that he was in pursuit. Clark began accelerating his speed and continued traveling eastbound down East Fourth Street. When he reached North Ohio Street, he failed to stop at the clearly posted stop sign, drove around another vehicle that was stopped and turned southbound onto North Ohio. Clark then turned eastbound onto Hickory Drive, where speeds reached approximately 66 mph in a residential neighborhood and he again failed to stop at a clearly posted stop sign. Clark

continued to ignore the officer’s warnings to stop and proceeded eastbound on Requarth Road at speeds of approximately 82 mph, still failing to stop at all visibly posted stop signs He then turned southbound onto Stahl Road where he continued to US. Route 36. Clark turned westbound onto US. Route. 36, nearly hitting a sheriff’s deputy’s police cruiser.

Clark continued on 36 until Jaysville-St. Johns Road, where he drove around a set of stop sticks that were deployed in an effort to end the pursuit. Clark ran a clearly visible red light at the intersection of U.S. Route 36 and State Route 571, where he continued westbound to the State Route 127 on ramp. Clark began traveling southbound on State Route 127 at speeds nearing 100 mph. Once the pursuit reached Castine, Clark turned westbound onto State Route 722 and then southbound onto North Maple Street. Clark turned eastbound onto Peach Street and then to his father’s residence, where he parked the vehicle.

Clark was taken into custody by Darke County units involved in the pursuit and incarcerated on charges of failure to comply with a lawful order and driving under suspension. While incarcerated in the Darke County Jail, Clark was served a misdemeanor citation for failure to comply with a lawful order and a traffic citation for the following driving under suspension, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, and stop sign violation. Clark was issued copies of all his citations. The vehicle Clark was driving was towed by Hot Rods Towing.

Wanted Person On Jan. 6 an officer was on patrol in the alley behind the 100 block of Deshler Avenue and observed a known wanted subject, Sean Reason, run from the backyard and inside a residence.

The officer approached the house and told Reason to come out or a search warrant would be issued. Reason came out of the house voluntarily and was placed into cuffs. Dispatch was able to confirm the active warrant with Darke County through LEADS/ NCIC. The warrant was for a felony probation violation on an original charge of domestic violence with no bond. Reason was searched for contraband with none being found and transported to Darke County Jail for incarceration.

On Jan. 1 an officer was dispatched to Family Dollar, 300 Martin St., in reference a shoplifting complaint. While enroute, dispatch told the officer a witness described the suspect as being a white male with dark hair, wearing a gray jacket, a multi colored sock hat, black pants, carrying a backpack and having sores on his face.

Dispatch also said the witness reported it appeared the suspect had concealed something large under his jacket when he left the store. As the officer arrived in the vicinity, another person who had been following the suspect, pointed him out to the officers at the intersection of East Fourth Street and Broadway Street.

Two officers made contact with the male subject who matched the description the witness had Shoplifting given dispatch.

officers went to the 100 block of West Fourth Street and located the blanket in the alley. When officers showed Hale the blanket he admitted it was the same one he had taken. Due to Hale being homeless and not being from the area, he was advised he would be going to jail that night.

Officers first transported Hale to Family Dollar and conducted a field line up with employees, who positively identified Hale as the suspect. The blanket was returned to Family Dollar and Hale was transported to Wayne HealthCare to be evaluated by hospital staff. Officers completed a misdemeanor citation for theft. Hale was then transported to the Darke County Jail, where he was incarcerated for the theft charge and held on a bond of $2,025. While speaking with Hale, he said there were three $20 bills in his bag, which he believed were counterfeit. He asked officers to take the bills, which they did and placed into property.

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 been successful in those same academic pursuits?

Edison State Community College students, Greenville Campus, under the supervision of experienced tutors and teachers, have been involved in the Empowering programs since 2016.

Empowering Darke County Youth has worked more than 17,000 hours with over 700 students from every school district in the county. Edison State students have supplied nearly a third of those hours.

In 2019 alone, 92 students

Edison State volunteers have worked in Empowering tutoring programs since 2016. Last year, 92 students worked over 1,600 hours to help students struggling with their academics.

volunteered over 1,600 hours.

“They have an option,” said Edison State Fundamentals of Communication instructor Bob Robinson.

“They can take the traditional communications exams and research paper or they can give up 25 hours of their ‘free’ time using the tools they learn in class, and work with kids who need help with their academics.

“Does it work?” Robinson continued. “The tutoring programs grow each year and 90 percent of parents and guardians say their students are being helped. We have dozens of positive comments and success stories… and I’ve never heard an Edison State student say taking an exam or doing a research paper was an opportunity of a lifetime.”

Dr. Doreen Larson, Edison State Community College president, said the high quality experience Edison State students get in teaching and learning through the Empowering After School program will prove valuable to them many times throughout their future.

“All of us, at one time or another,” she noted, “will be called upon to be teachers in our roles as co-workers, parents, mentors and friends.

Many students who are struggling in school thrive under the individualized and innovative interventions

offered by these young adults who come from the same neighborhoods and backgrounds.”

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 consider supporting Empowering Darke County Youth, a 501c3 United Way Agency.

Empowering can be reached through Facebook, its website empowerdarkecounty. com or Email: empoweringyouth101@gmail.com. Its mailing address is Empowering Darke County Youth, P.O. Box 1113, Greenville, Ohio 45331.

The Empowering Mission: Empowering Darke County Youth provides After School and Summer Tutoring programs to assist students in the areas of language arts and math with the goal of Strong Students for a Strong Community.

Versailles to welcome Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure VERSAILLES – More than a thousand bike riders from across the country will spend a night in Versailles in June on the Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure.

Heritage Park will host the cyclists on Tuesday, June 23, as they arrive from Wapakoneta before leaving the following morning for Troy on their weeklong biking-camping tour. The loop for the June 20-27 event starts and finishes in Sidney.

GOBA is a noncompetitive ride that is billed as a fun, family-oriented event for cyclists of all ages. It seeks to promote bicycle tourism in Ohio by showcasing a different region of the state each year.

Participants typically hail from about 40 states and several countries.

The 2020 tour is expected

to draw 1,200 to 1,500 cyclists, according to GOBA Director Jeff Pierron of Columbus Outdoor Pursuits, the nonprofit organization that organizes the ride.

The visit will be GOBA’s third overnight stay in Ver-

sailles and the first in 13 years. Riders on the 1998 and 2007 tours camped at the old Versailles High School. Nearby Greenville was a host in 1994, 2005 and 2013.

“Versailles embodies much of what we seek in

a GOBA community: hospitality, history, excellent facilities and good cycling roads,” Pierron said. “The village is a little smaller than the typical overnight town, but the leaders and volunteers are adept at hosting big events such as the annual Poultry Days and the 2019 bicentennial celebration. There’s a lot of community pride.”

Rodd Hale, village administrator of Versailles, is serving as the local coordinator for GOBA planning. He and other community leaders are reaching out to organizations, businesses and government officials for support and to find residents to lead committees such as food, emergency planning, entertainment and information. The committees will begin assembling volunteers in early 2020.

The Adkinses were selected to serve as grand marshals for the Ansonia Fourth of July parade in 2019.

The couple has worked with the Fourth of July activities in the village in the past, and are now more involved in the Ansonia Community Pride group, which plants flowers, has business windows painted and hangs the military signs on the posts along Main Street.

In the past, Ted has worked at Midmark, Whirlpool and Huffy’s.

They are members of the Ansonia United Methodist Church, where he was a trustee until recently, and he is involved in the Scouting program in Ansonia.

He, himself, had been a Cub Scout, and now his son is working on his Eagle Award through the Boy Scouts.

His hobbies, he said, include guns and remote control items, and he indicated he is an NRA fan for life.

When they were interviewed for being the parade marshals last year, the couple said they enjoy helping with projects that make the community better.

“We want to make it prideful,” Adkins said. “It doesn’t take that much time.”

ON YOUR MIND

Greenville Early Bird

Sunday, January 12, 2020 5A

Many wins for Ohio were bipartisan The new year is a time to look back on the accomplishments of 2019 and look forward into the new year. Reflecting back on 2019, I’m really proud of the work my team and I have done in Congress to help Ohioans and their families.

Despite the partisanship and media focus on impeachment, we’ve quietly been working hard on both sides of the aisle to find solutions to real challenges facing Ohioans. In all, President Trump signed more than 50 of my bipartisan Rob legislative initiatives into law, on issues Portman ranging from helping people save for U.S. retirement to the drug crisis that has Senator gripped Ohio.

In 2019, I continued to take the lead in the Senate in tackling the addiction epidemic. Over the past few years, I’ve worked to pass laws like the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA), which has been used to help expand education, treatment and recovery services. I pushed to ensure CARA has the resources it needs to make a difference, securing a record $658 million in funding for CARA grants in 2020.

In addition, my bipartisan Combating Meth and Cocaine Act was recently signed into law for 2020, allowing grant funds allocated to combat opioid addiction to also be used for treatment and recovery services for new threats like crystal meth and cocaine — psychostimulants that are surging across our state.

We made some progress in passing legislation to improve health care access. For example, in April, the president signed into law my ACE Kids Act to improve health outcomes and care coordination for children with complex medical conditions on Medicaid, and it’s already starting to make a difference.

I successfully fought for Ohio’s defense installations and our military families, too. In the passed National Defense Authorization Act, critical Ohio installations like Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton and the Joint Systems Manufacturing Center (JSMC) in Lima got the resources needed to complete their important missions. That includes $1.7 billion to produce needed Abrams tanks and $523 million to produce armored Stryker vehicles at JSMC, plus $394 million to upgrade existing Stryker vehicles. This ensures that our men and women on the front lines have the best and most lethal equipment.

Wright-Patt, the largest single-site employer in Ohio, continues to expand its important role in safeguarding our national security with my strong support. It will receive nearly $121 million to finish upgrades to its National Air and Space Intelligence Center, which provides vital intelligence to our country’s leaders about threats from the skies. On top of all these important initiatives, our service members will see a 3.1 percent across-the-board pay raise — the largest in a decade.

I’m also proud President Trump recently signed into law the SECURE Act. This bipartisan retirement legislation included provisions I authored to help more Americans save for their retirement by encouraging small businesses to offer retirement plans to their workers, ensuring millions of part-time employees can access 401(k) plans, and increase the age for required minimum distributions from 70 1/2 to 72.

Our successes in 2019 weren’t just about passing laws. I’ve worked with my colleagues to conduct proper oversight so we know our laws are being enforced.

As Chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, I held hearings on important issues like Chinese influence at U.S. colleges, the cost of federal government shutdowns, and foreign talent recruitment schemes used to steal U.S. technology. As a result of this oversight, I’m introducing bipartisan legislation soon to offer solutions.

That will include working to pass my bipartisan JOBS Act, which will expand access to Pell Grants so Ohioans can afford shorter-term job training programs that will get them meaningful, good-paying jobs. I’ll work to pass my FIGHT Fentanyl Act, which will permanently criminalize fentanyl-related substances so that law enforcement can keep these dangerous synthetic opioids out of our communities. We must do more on retirement security, which is why I’ve introduced the Retirement Security & Savings Act. Finally, I’m working to ensure the Senate passes the new U.S.Mexico-Canada trade agreement, which will expand markets and level the playing field for Ohio workers, farmers, and small business owners.

I’m confident that we can continue to make progress on these and other issues in 2020. My top priority will continue to be delivering results for Ohio.

My life is spending money and fixing problems I really, really, really need to clean out my garage. It would be nice to be able to fit a car in there in case I have to do something like car repair when it’s 30-degrees outside. Who am I kidding? Cars don’t break down in the dead of winter (he said sarcastically).

I think winter is the only time my cars do break down. This time it was an issue with my brakes. There is nothing worse than the sound of metal grinding on metal. As soon as you hear it, it changes the way you drive. You try to avoid roads with stop signs and stop lights and if you do have to stop you begin to slow down about a 1/4-mile from where you actually have to stop – hoping your car will come to a stop without hitting the brakes.

I started thinking about it and I had changed the brakes a little over a year ago. I remember it well because less than a week later my wife was driving down I-75 and the wheel I

MORAINE – Governor Mike DeWine recently joined Fuyao Glass America as part of an announcement to create 100 new jobs at its Moraine facility.

The governor was joined

There is nothing better than the sound of the vacuum cleaner going whir, whir, whir, thunk – the thunk being the clog.

Unfortunately, the freeflowing sink revealed a leak in one of the pipes. A trip to the home improvement store and I got everything I needed – until I took the old pipe out and stripped the threads on another pipe. It was a trip back to the store to get what I needed. I came home and realized the new pipe I got was the wrong size. I returned the wrong part and got the correct part, but when I got home I realized the original pipe I got was the wrong part.

It was back to the store to return that part to get the correct part. In total, four trips to the home improvement store.

On the bright side, when I put the parts together it didn’t leak. Therefore, I fixed it on my first try.

We are grateful for their partnership and look forward to a bright future here.”

Fuyao first invested in Moraine in 2014, committing to create 800 jobs for its Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers. In 2015, it committed to create 750 addi-

tional jobs to manufacture after-market glass. Today, the company has 2,300 associates at the plant.

“We and our local partners appreciate the investments Fuyao has made in Moraine to create jobs as well as its philanthropy to support the local community,” said J.P. Nauseef, JobsOhio President and chief investment officer.

Fuyao Glass America earned its largest profits in 2019 and is preparing for continued growth. While Fuyao has other U.S. facilities, it chose to invest in the Moraine expansion without additional state and local incentives.

“Brock has been a special athlete since he got here,” said Ansonia head football coach and athletic director Matt Macy. “This was always his goal. Very determined young man, great football player and obviously a top notch track and field athlete.”

“I love football,” Shellhaas stated. “That is a sport I am going to miss tremendously.

Doing one thing all year round it gets tiring. Having multiple sports it keeps my body fresh, working out

different things, keeps my body stronger with different muscles that I wouldn’t normally work with in track that I would work with in football – plus football is a fun sport.”

Brock’s father Steve was an OHSAA state runner for Ansonia in the pole vault and serves as the school’s pole vault coach.

“It’s been a good thing, it’s been a challenging thing,” Steve said of coaching his son. “When you are coach and dad you don’t get away from it but it has been spe-

cial to spend that time with your son and be able to see him grow, see him mature.”

“The success he has had has been pretty special to share that with him along the way – it is neat,” added Steve. “I am super happy for him and excited for him to have a coach that is not his dad because that will be kind of neat for him to have that opportunity and be able to grow and learn more from somebody else other than his dad.”

“The support of my family, everyone here, my friends, my Ultimate Air family, my dad and Micah (Coblentz) have helped tremendously,” said Shellhaas. “They have put a lot hours in that I will be forever grateful for and just the Ansonia support.

Ansonia is a great school and the support they have given me every day has been tremendous.”

Shellhaas has one final season at Ansonia to compete in OHSAA track and field before moving on the Central Michigan.

“I hope I can jump higher

this season – I’m not done yet,” said Shellhaas. “I still have goals and hopefully win another state banner. I have a lot of work to do for that though but I am excited to go up to Central.”

“I’ll be teammates with AJ Frens who graduated from Greenville,” added Shellhaas.

“Coach Wilson is an excellent coach and I am excited to work with him at Central.

He is a four-time Division II National Champion and knows the vault so I am excited to work with him on a daily basis and be up at Central.”

“You can’t ask for a better young man not only on the athletic fields but in the classroom as well,” concluded Robson. “Brock is a leader and he will be sorely missed here at Ansonia but we wish him all the best at Central Michigan. He will make us proud there.”

Lady Patriots too much for Covington DarkeCountyMedia.com

Covington – Covington and Tri-Village have played some great games over the years and after one quarter of play the Buccs showed some fight … but they fought from behind too many times and the Patriots 1-2 punch with Riley Sagester outside and Maddie Downing inside was too much to overcome with TV winning it 67-32.

The Patriots jumped out on top 11-2 to start the game by using their defensive pressure yielding easy buckets in the open floor.

Covington then began to break the press and attacked the basket and started to claw back into the contest and only trailed 18-14 at the end of the first quarter.

It took a lot of effort on the Buccs part to get back in the game and it left them a little gassed and they didn’t close out or get a hand up in the second

quarter. Freshman Rylee Sagester, who doesn’t need much space to get her shot off caught fire and made 4 of her 6 triples on the night.

Senior Maddie Downing had 10 points inside the paint to break open the game to lead 43-18 at the half.

Covington fought hard in the 3rd quarter but the Patriots share the ball well and had 6 players score the 14 points to increase their lead to 57-25.

The Patriots share the ball well … but sometimes when they get big leads they get unfocused and then are guilty of overpassing the ball turning it over and not finishing.

The Patriots only scored 10 points in the final stanza but went on to win the game by the score of 67-32.

With a win like that one might think TV coach Brad Gray was pleased … but he’s looking at the bigger picture and knows they have to get better.

“We had a great second quarter … but I was disappointed in how we played in the 2nd half overall. We have a tendency to allow the score of the game dictate how we are playing and we have to stay locked in for 32 minutes or else were going to have some struggles here in some games we have coming up,” Gray stated.

Sharing the ball is always a good thing and evident by the Patriots who had 20 team assists with Trisa Porter and Andi Bietry dishing 5 each in the game.

Mylo: First baby of year, decade

By Linda Moody

Linda Moody | DarkeCountyMedia.com Here is a close-up shot of Mylo Campbell,

Tyler Campbell and Diana Carrubba show off their new son, Mylo, born this past Thursday evening at Wayne HealthCare. They have another son, Sylis, who will soon turn 3.

who was the first baby born this year at Wayne HealthCare. He weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces and measured 20 inches long at birth.

GREENVILLE — Mylo Campbell was the first baby of the year and of the decade born at Wayne HealthCare.

His mother, Diana Carrubba, gave birth at 9:33 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 3, with her son weighing 7 pounds, 7 ounces and measuring 20 inches long at birth. Delivering the baby was Dr. Heidi Yount.

This is the second child for Carrubba and Tyler Campbell.

Their son, Sylis, was born later this month nearly three years ago.

Carrubba said her due date was Dec. 27, 2019, and because she was past due, it was decided to induce her labor. And, that’s what happened.

She went into the hospital at 5:30 a.m. for the scheduled procedure, and the baby arrived 16 hours later without any complications.

She said she never expected she would give birth to the first baby of the year, but she’s happy about it.

“I feel fine,” said Carrubba, who said she did get to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s. She and Campbell have been together for five years,

after having met at their old job. They even went to school together in Greenville.

She now works at Hansbarger’s Home Solutions and he works for Ramco.

“We spend a lot of time with our family,” she said.

The infant’s grandparents on the father’s side are Helen Campbell and Brian McCullough, and on the maternal side, Dawn Grisez and Jerry Carr.

As is tradition, Wayne Hospital Auxiliary presented the family with special gifts, which included baby supplies and hand-knitted apparel.

Roger McEowen and Phyllis Krick, head of genealogy at Garst Museum, look over one of the 27 notebooks and binders he donated to the museum this week.

McEowen donates to museum GREENVILLE — Local genealogy buff Roger Lowell McEowen donated 27 binders and notebooks with family photos to Garst Museum this week.

These binders and notebooks focus on McEowen’s family history and genealogy from the arrival of his great-great-great-great-great-grandfather Daniel McEowen and family from Scotland in 1736 and including present-day McEowen families in the United States.

He said he started on the family history and genealogy afer he retired from Corning Glass in 1996.

“I’ve been doing it off and on until the present,” he said. “The first four years, I spent a lot of time researching. I even wrote letters to Scotland. I called and got birth and death certificates. When you get into genealogy, you usually start with mom and dad, grandmothers and grandfathers.”

In his introduction he wrote, “I am very proud of my Scottish heritage and what it represents to me.

More than 300 years of different blood lines probably put my blood line in the Heinz 57 variety.”

Also in his introduction, he outlines his direct line of McEowen ancestors and gives a brief history of each generation and its families.

The new restaurant has the capacity to seat over 54 people inside. As the weather gets warmer, Greenville’s Dairy Queen Grill & Chill customers will be able to advantage of the covered patio.

According to Chambers, the Greenville location employs 25 full-time employees and more than 15 part-time employees.

The franchise invested more than $1.2 million into the business with all new state of the art technology impacting the quality of food served and the speed and hospitality of their service.

Mark Roberts, general manager of the Greenville store, was all smiles when asked how the restaurant has been received in the community. He was impressed with the community’s friendliness and the welcome the store has received.

While DQ is known of its Blizzards and ice cream

cones, the restaurant also serves a great menu with burgers, chicken tenders, hot dogs, grilled chicken sandwiches, onion rings, fries, cheese curds, salads and more. Be sure to stop in for their Blizzard of the Month.

The Greenville store is currently searching for nostalgic, historical pictures of Darke County residents eating ice cream.

Chambers pointed out the pictures do not need to be of people eating Dairy Queen ice cream. They can be of ice cream socials or other events. The more historical and the more people eating ice cream, the better. They will be accepting entries through Jan. 11. The top three photos will win cash prizes and be displayed in their lobby. First place wins $100 and second and third each received $50.

Every year, they invite males and females, firsttime hunters, and youth gobbler pros from ages 12-17 that reside in Darke County or attend a Darke County School to apply. They have many great volunteers who donate their time and enjoy sharing their love for this sport with the youth.

In addition to the wonderful volunteers, they also bring in top notch guides that will make sure the youth are following safety guidelines, learning about the habitat, and are enjoying the thrill of the hunt.

The students will have a chance to bag a bird, but there is no guarantee.

The only guarantee is they will learn a lot, meet new friends, and enjoy a weekend in the outdoors.

The applicants that are selected by a committee will be invited to spend a memorable weekend at Chenoweth Trails.

They will be required to possess a valid youth hunting license, a turkey permit, and attend the gun sighting on April 4.

In order to apply, the youth will need to complete the online application along with the writing assignment associated with the theme of this year’s hunt: “What is a healthy safe image

Greenville Early Bird

Flu is widespread in West Central Ohio GREENVILLE – Influenza is now widespread within the eight county West Central Ohio region including: Champaign, Clark, Darke, Greene, Miami, Montgomery, Preble and Shelby counties.

Influenza is a very contagious illness that strikes millions of Americans each year. Influenza, unlike the common cold, has a swift onset of severe symptoms beginning with two to seven days of fever, headache, muscle aches, extreme fatigue, and a cough.

Health officials are encouraging residents to protect themselves against the flu by getting vaccinated as soon as possible and by following other preventive actions as flu cases and hospitalizations continue to rise.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone six months and older get a flu shot now, as this is the time of year when there is usually an increase in cases.

Through week 52 of the flu season, which ended

Dec. 28, there have been 472 influenza-associated hospitalizations and 2,574 outpatient cases reported in the region. However, health officials know the numbers are higher, since many people who are infected with the flu do not go to the doctor.

Getting an annual flu vaccine is the first and best way to protect yourself and your family from the flu. Flu vaccination can reduce flu illnesses, doctors’ visits, and missed work and school, as well as prevent flu-related hos-

pitalizations.

“It takes a couple of weeks after getting vaccinated for the flu vaccine to take effect,” said Emily Hoisington, director of Nursing for Darke County General Health District.

“With influenza continuing to rise, it is very important to get vaccinated as soon as possible to protect not only yourself but also those around you; especially our vulnerable population - young children, the elderly, pregnant women and those who are immunocompromised.”

Many people in vulnerable groups are also visited by friends and relatives. When their visitors are immunized, that also makes it less likely to spread the flu to them.

In addition to getting a flu shot, the following preventive actions will help you stay healthy this flu season: * Wash your hands often with soap and water or use alcohol-based sanitizer when you are unable to wash. * Try not to touch your eyes, nose or mouth.

Germs are often spread this way. * Get plenty of rest.

Sleep is shown to help your body fight off illness. * When you are sick, stay home until you are fever-free for 24 hours without using fever-reducing medication. * Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue.

Flu vaccines are offered at the Darke County Health Department Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, call 937-5484196 x235.

JONATHAN P. HEIN, JUDGE : THE ESTATE OF JIMMY LEWIS, deceased, et al : Defendants. : Public notice is hereby given that on December 30, 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: I36-2-111-14-03-01-12300 Property Description: Darke County Recorder’s Office Official Records OR Volume 407, Page 1971 and Volume 497, Page 1886 Property Address: 110 E Cross, Palestine OH Amount of Taxes, Assessment, Charges, Penalties, and Interest Due: $9,171.29 Last Known Owner: Jimmy Lewis, deceased Lienholders or Other Persons of Interest: Unknown Heirs or Beneficiaries of Jimmy Lewis Jason Hurd, 110 E Cross, Palestine OH Jeannie Hurd, 110 E Cross, Palestine OH Shannon Miller, 103 S Main, Castine OH Geneva Andrew, 6010 Jane Way Road, Maryville TN Jamie Lewis, 1707 Bobwhite, Maryville TN Lisa Aker, 105 W Main, New Paris OH Unknown Heirs or Beneficiaries of Betty K.

Cross St., Palestine 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 21, 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.

UNKNOWN HEIRS OR BENEFICIARIES OF THE ESTATE OF JIMMY LEWIS and UNKNOWN HEIRS OR BENEFICIARIES OF BETTY K. LEWIS, whose addresses are unknown, will take notice that on the 30th day of December 2019, SCOTT J. ZUMBRINK, Darke County Treasurer, filed his Complaint for Foreclosure being entitled “SCOTT J. ZUMBRINK, DARKE COUNTY TREASURER v. THE ESTATE OF JIMMY LEWIS, et al, CASE NO. 19-CV-00586 in the Common Pleas Court of Darke County, Ohio, Courthouse, Greenville, Ohio”.

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.

January is school board recognition month ARCANUM – The Arcanum-Butler Local School District will join more than 700 school districts throughout Ohio to celebrate January as School Board Recognition Month, Superintendent John Stephens announced.

“Our school board members serve the citizens of the Arcanum-Butler

District and often make difficult choices for our district, all with minimal pay,” he said. “Their focus is always on the future success of the children in our district. The perfect example of that is the recent completion of the new Agricultural Education, Community and Athletic Center. The project was a direct reflection of

our Board of Education listening to our students and community and finding a way to get it done.

Celebrating School Board Recognition Month is one way to say thanks for all they do.”

Serving as a link between the community and classroom, school board members are elected to establish the

policies that provide the framework for public schools. The ArcanumButler board is responsible for an annual budget of over $12 million, 1100 students, and 125 employees.

“It’s more important than ever that communities support public education so that today’s students are prepared to

be productive citizens and the leaders of tomorrow,” Stephens said. “Please take a moment and tell school board members ‘thanks for caring about our children and giving so much to our community.’

Let them know we support them and that their dedicated service is recognized and truly appreciated,”

The board members serving Arcanum-Butler Local Schools and their years of service are: Board President Ed Everman has served on the ArcanumButler Local Board since 1998, Mark Trask began serving in February 2011, Bev Delk in January 2012, Kelly Norris in April 2013 and Eric Moore in January 2018.

Faith United Methodist will host blood drive ARCANUM – Celebrate January Ohio Blood Donor Awareness Month by donating at the Faith United Methodist Church community blood drive Monday, Jan. 13, 3-6:30 p.m., at 101 East South St., Arcanum. Everyone who registers to donate will receive the special

edition “Donor Strong” long-sleeve t-shirt. Make an appointment online at www.DonorTime.com or call (937) 461-3220.

The first goal of Blood Donor Awareness Month is to boost the blood supply after the long holiday period. CBC is also announcing strategic goals

for 2020 that include: * Increasing donations to provide blood to more hospitals outside our traditional 15-county service area. CBC must expand its hospital partnerships to remain viable in the blood industry and to continue serving the Miami Valley region.

Foundation raises money for scholarships PIQUA – The Edison Foundation held the 22nd annual Holiday Evening at Edison State Community College on Wednesday, Dec. 4, raising approximately $50,000 for student scholarships. The evening featured the contemporary string trio band Simply Three as the headlining entertainment.

Over 240 guests attended the annual gala to enjoy hors d’oeuvres, drinks, the company of others, and great music, all while supporting countless students in the upcoming academic year with scholarships.

Simply Three’s performance proved to be a crowd-pleaser, complete with original material, covers, and holiday classics.

The band performed such classic holiday songs as “God Rest Ye Gentlemen,” a cover of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and some of their original hits such as “Factory” and “Rain.”

“This year’s talent, Simply Three, hits on the perfect balance of virtuosity and diversity in musical style and selection. I particularly enjoyed their arrangements of traditional Christmas music. Their original song, “Rain,” is at the top of my playlist,” said Edison State President Dr. Doreen Larson.

Proceeds from the evening benefit the Edison Foundation’s General Scholarship Fund, which directly assists recent high school graduates and those returning to the classroom to start, change or advance in their careers.

Simply Three performed in front of an audience of over 240 at The Edison Foundation’s 22nd annual Holiday Evening at Edison State.

“The holidays are all about giving, and Holiday Evening is a gift of food and entertainment to the community who, in turn, are generously supporting Edison State students through scholarships,” added Larson.

“These scholarships are a factor in changing the entire trajectory of a student’s life, moving them from a minimum wage job to a professional position.

These dollars make the difference between someone working in a convenience store to that same person working as a police officer, a nurse, a machinist, or a banking agent.”

Also contributing to the success of the event was the evening’s chair, Regina Duff, Edison State alumni, and Obstetrics Director at Wayne HealthCare.

“Each ticket sold is a reflection of the generous support that attendees have so graciously shared with current and future students,” said Duff.

Holiday Evening at Edi-

son State includes past performances by Lucky Chops, John Tesh, Tim Janis, Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, Harry Connick, Sr., Marvin Hamlisch, Australia’s The Ten Tenors, Straight No Chaser, The Toledo Symphony Orchestra, and former Tonight Show bandleader Doc Severinson.

Thanks to the generosity of donors, The Edison Foundation has awarded over $2 million in scholarships since its inception in 1993. The Edison Foundation has also provided thousands of dollars in faculty and staff support grants; supported student athletic programs by funding uniforms, equipment, facilities, and post-season tournament play; and has helped to enhance campus facilities through several capital campaigns.

PIQUA – Edison State Community College’s Peace Officer Academy honored nine students in December following their successful completion of the 23-week program. Students of the program met for six days each week, beginning on July 8, totaling 752 hours of training. The curriculum of the program is certified by the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission (OPOTC) and covers all aspects of law enforcement training, including administration, firearms, subject control, and investigation.

“This is another fine class of cadets who are willing to serve and protect the citizens of the State of Ohio. This class was unique because it was the first time in our 16-year history that the females outnumbered the males in the class, two to one,” said
