campaign with donations ranging from as little as $300 to as much as $400,000. Donations will secure naming rights to pens, bleachers, and show arenas in each barn, as well as to the new dog and goat facilities themselves (valued at $75,000 and $400,000 respectively); naming rights to the swine barn were awarded to Minnesota-based Cargill, Inc. following a $500,000 donation made by the corporation in January of this year. Gifts are tax-deductible and can be spread out over five years. Seating for the event is

limited, so reservations are for adults only. Those interested can RSVP by calling (937)459-9655 or via email at darkecountykickoffevent@gmail.com. The new buildings are designed to do two things, according to Friends of the Senior Fair Board and Darke County Barrow Boosters member Rachel Fearon: meet the needs of Junior Fair kids and provide the Darke County community with a one-ofa-kind event center. “The new swine barn will be a true multipurpose building,” Fearon said. “We want to attract

events throughout the year; it’s a lot of money to spend on a building you only use once a year. If successful, this facility will hold 1000 people. There isn’t any place in the county that will hold that many warm bodies at once.” The multi-purpose building will begin construction in the spring, and is expected to be finished in time for the 2019 fair. The Cargill donation and an expected $800,000 insurance payout make up $1.3 of the projected $2.5 million needed to complete the project, according to Matt Hughes, whose Cincinnati-based nonprofit consulting firm Fair Fund-

ing, LLC was hired by the fair board to raise funds for the project in October 2018. Hughes has raised an additional $150,000, but stressed that the latter two barns will only be built if the remaining funds can be raised. “The quicker we accomplish this, the faster those other two buildings can go up,” Hughes said. “That is entirely dependent on a successful private sector campaign.” Fearon expressed similar sentiments. “All gifts matter,” Fearon said. “Our community is very special, and as we like to say, none of us are as strong as all of us.”

be to retain researchers at The Ohio State University to conduct a study to collect quantitative data. The CIC agreed, Staugler said, and is helping fund the study. NextGen hopes to receive the study’s findings sometime this coming fall. Researchers, Bloomingdale explained, will look at other communities similar to those in Darke County to see how they are attracting business and growth. For example, Staugler said, since 2000, Troy has grown its population by 4,000 while Greenville has lost 500 residents. “What assets do they have to attract young people?” Staugler asked. “What are they dong right? Cities see-

ing population growth are making informed decisions,” in regards to offering housing, retail and restaurant choices. The OSU study also can be used by Main Street Greenville to attract downtown business, the Chamber of Commerce and by other city, village and county officials. “We are viewing the data as a holistic tool,” Staugler said. Another question Bloomingdale said NextGen wants to answer is “what are we doing to keep people living here? We need to figure out what we need to do.” Staugler said he views NextGen as an “on-going” project for the county.

Patient cited for persistent disorderly conduct at Wayne HealthCare Disorderly

On March 22 an officer was called to Wayne Healthcare on the report of a disorderly patient. Joshua Bolin had been transported to the hospital for withdrawing from drugs and, according to the report “wanting help.” The officer found Bolin was uncooperative

from his ER room. He yelled several times while walking into the hallway and causing a disturbance for staff and other patients. Bolin refused to stay in his bed and had to be redirected by the police officer and hospital security several times. Bolin was also warned several times for disorderly conduct. Bolin refused to keep his pants on and attempted to walk into the hallway without them on numerous times. Bolin began running in his room from one side to the other running into the door and running into the glass on the front of his room. He also began throwing himself and hitting his head on the counter in the room. Bolin finally calmed down enough for a nurse to assess why he was in the ER and how to treat him. The nurse advised Bolin they needed a urine sample. He attempted to give them a sample and ultimately urinated and defecated on the floor and bed. Bolin eventually had to be restrained in leather restraints by hospital staff until he could be medicated enough to calm him down. Bolin was eventually admitted to the ICU to be observed and was cited for persistent disorderly conduct in a medical facility. On March 19 the School Resource Officer at the Greenville K-8 building was contacted by the principal about an incident involving two students acting in a disorderly manner. The principal said he was informed two male

The SRO reviewed video of the incident and spoke with three witnesses, two students and one staff member. All witnesses said both students were equally taunting each other to physically fight. Reviewing the video showed that two other students got in between the two disorderly students, preventing the fight. Also according to the video, a teacher arrived and escorted one of the students away from the area. Both students were issued citations for disorderly conduct.

officers were able to apprehend the runaway subject behind the Bistro Off Broadway on East Fifth Street. The subject was identified as Brandon Middaugh. The GPD dispatch checked Middaugh through LEADS/NCIC and it revealed that he had several active warrants out of Montgomery County and one out of Darke County, all for probation violations. Gannt was found to be valid and gave officers consent to search his vehicle. Nothing was found during the search and Gannt was released with a warning for no tail lights. Middaugh was transported to the Darke County Jail in reference to his warrants without further incident. He was cited for obstructing official business for obstructing the performance of an officer’s lawful duties on the traffic stop. Middaugh’s Darke County warrant was a felony probation violation with an original charge of possession of dangerous drugs, no bond.

usually know who I am. Of course, that makes me feel good. On the other hand, I now, more than ever, ask a person how I may know them if they look familiar. Usually after they explain, I may remember the particular interview, but, for some reason, I usually remember where it took place and sometimes my reason for doing the story. At one point in time, I created theme pages and wrote on different angles about the subject to fill the page. Some of those pages included several interviews and as many stories. That was generally fun. My favorites have always been human interest/feature, feel-good stories. I love personalizing them. I didn’t particularly care about controversial stories, but I know they’re important in the newspaper business, nor am I much of a political person, but, like I said, they have to be done. Meetings were not always fun, yet I usually got something out of them to report on in the paper. I believe I could write a story about most anything because there is always something to say about any person, group, event or interesting issues. I hoped my writings have improved over the years as I have taken a look at some of those “old” stories, and won-

der, “What was I thinking?” I was fortunate to be chosen to be in a field where I loved and still love going to work (most of the time), and I hope that continues.

Teaford’s celebrating an anniversary SUSAN HARTLEY

STAFF WRITER shartley@aimmediamidwest.com

GREENVILLE – Monday marks the first anniversary of Aaron Keaser’s ownership of Teaford’s Pizza and Subs – a Greenville landmark also known as Teaford’s Dairy Store – at 101 Pine St. Keaser purchased the pizza and sub shop from his father and stepmom, Terry and Marge Keaser last spring and continues to offer award-winning subs, pizza and a variety of sandwiches, snacks and beverages including beers and local wines. Teaford’s has been a Greenville staple since at least the 1920s, Keaser said – in the same location. “After something’s been here that long, we don’t want to change it,” he said. Keaser has made some upgrades to the kitchen area of the store, including adding air conditioning and a new freezer. “We’re upgrading and preparing for the future,” Keaser said. He’s also in tune with changes in how customers are moving to making healthy choices, including adding a gluten-free cauliflower crust. “We can make any of our pizzas on the cauliflower crust,” Keaser said, adding one of the most popular pizzas is the super deluxe, which is featured on a billboard sign on State Route 121. “It’s got everything on it but the kitchen sink, People will call in and ask for the pizza on the sign,” he said. Keaser’s father purchased the business in December 2003, adding pizzas to the menu. The younger Keaser said he

remembers stopping in Teaford’s for penny candy as a kid and went on to work there for his dad before earning a business degree from Indiana University East in Richmond. “It was meant to be and fell into place,” he said of keeping the business in his family. More information about Teaford’s menu selections may be found on their website, teafords.com. There’s also an online ordering option on their website. Currently Keaser has four employees and said he’s looking to add a couple part-time positions in the near future. Hours are Monday through Thursday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. For more information, check out Teaford’s website, teaford.com, their Facebook page at Teaford’s Dairy Store.

Students urged to go ‘All In’ GREENVILLE – Greenville students in grades 5-8 are being motivated to go “all in.” On Monday, motivational speaker Gian Paul Gonzalez visited Greenville Middle School, giving his trademark “All In” presentation, thanks to a grant from the Coalition for a Healthy Darke County. “We felt like Gian Paul Gonzalez was a good fit for Greenville Middle School because we encourage students to be their best selves by being kind, doing for others, working at something they are passionate about while making good choices to stay drug, alcohol and tobacco free,” said Tiffany Fine, school counselor. Gonzalez, who currently works as a freshman world history teacher in Union City, New Jersey, created the “All In” program as a motivation for at-risk youth. In 2011, a friend who was team chaplain, asked Gonzalez to fill in as a pregame speaker for the N.Y.

“It’s what you are doing when no one is watching,” that shows an individual is committed to going all in. “His message showed students that being all in is not always easy,” Fine said. “He advised students to find someone to be all in for, so that when times are hard, they have something to help push them through.” Gonzalez also touched on the importance of students choosing positive Greenville Middle School student Jadyn Norris performs push-ups people, activities and hobwith motivational speaker Gian Paul Gonzalez offering encouragement bies to focus on, as well as during the school’s “All In” assembly.

Arcanum OFD Parade sign-up ARCANUM – Applications are currently being accepted for the 2019 Old Fashioned Days Parade in

Eldora Speedway will once again support State of the Heart Care’s annual Heart & Sole 5K.

A legend gives back to SOH Care ROSSBURG – You hear Eldora Speedway and most of us automatically think “World’s Greatest Dirt Track.” However, there is another side of Eldora that many may not be familiar with, but should be. Ever since its beginning in 1954, Eldora has been finding ways to give back and partner with local organizations. Larry Boos, an employee of Eldora Speedway since 1991, explained it all started with Earl Baltes, who was a very giving person and would participate with a lot of requests from different area groups for auction items. He did not boast about the donations and chose to keep it low key. Tony Stewart became the owner of Eldora in 2004, and with his existing record of humanitarianism brought Eldora’s ability to participate with charities and non-profit organizations to a higher level. One example of this is the Prelude to the Dream, an all-star dirt late model race held at Eldora from 20052012. In that eight-year span, the Prelude raised more than $4 million for charity. Through different fundraisers, Eldora gives some of its proceeds to the Tony Stewart Foundation, which directly benefits critically ill or disabled children, at-risk or endangered animals, and drivers injured in motor racing. Eldora also has a longstanding partnership with the Community Blood Center out of Dayton, and Racing 4 Relief, a local organization out of St. Henry, that has recently given proceeds to the Mercer Co. Fire Department, Mercer Co. EMS, and American Red Cross. Larry continued, “It’s important because that’s what we are all here for

and it’s the story of life for everyone to work towards a good cause. If it’s within our parameters at Eldora we will want to jump on board to offer help.” Since 2015, Eldora has partnered with State of the Heart Care and allowed the organization to hold their annual 5K race, the Heart and Sole 5K, donating the use of their grounds and Ballroom. “Everyone has an awareness of hospice and the good things hospice provides. When we were approached to host the event five years ago we jumped on it because State of the Heart Care is such a recognizable and reputable group and we feel honored to work with you,” said Boos. Boos hopes for another good turnout at the 5K this year and said, “We are happy to help host the event and to work together towards a great cause. The reward is watching smiles on the participants knowing they have just completed the 5K and also contributed to a good cause.” Join State of the Heart Care at Eldora Speedway for State of the Heart Care’s sixth annual Heart and Sole 5K on Saturday, April 6. Proceeds from the race benefit their Care Center, located on the fourth floor of Wayne Healthcare. You can find a link to register at www. stateoftheheartcare.org or at https://runsignup.com/ Race/OH/NewWeston/ HeartandSole5KOH. The Heart and Sole 5k is the first race in the Darke County Wellness Challenge. For any race day questions, contact Erica Wood, Race Director, at ewood@stateoftheheartcare.org or (937) 5482999.

participating in the 2019 parade, send an email to: arcanumofd@yahoo.com. Once your email is

received, they will send back an application with additional instructions. If you do not have an email you can contact Jason Blackburn at 937-621-2166.

GREENMOUND UNION CEMETERY CLEANUP The Trustees of Greenmound Union Cemetery would like to announce their annual spring cleanup. The Trustees are asking families and loved ones to remove any decorations that they wish to save by April 7. The trustees will begin removing old arrangements and decorations that are not in vases attached to the monuments or saddle type arrangements beginning April 7. This cleanup is necessary to properly maintain the grounds.

Pope Francis challenges us in our work with the poor to move beyond charitable aide to helping them find a means of earning a living. All of us want to be masters of our destiny, to live in a way

that fosters our own dignity. Charity is a temporary response. Sustainability (the ability for people and communities to meet their own needs without depleting their resources and not dependent on outside help) is a long term solution that promotes the economic well-being of every human being. Kim will speak to how we can and should put forth the effort for a world of inclusion rather than exclusion.

Puzzles & Prizes at April’s First Friday event GREENVILLE – Put on your thinking cap and spend some quality family

time together during Main Street Greenville’s First Friday event on Friday,

If this happens to your vehicle... call

April 5, from 6-9 p.m. Main Street Greenville has prepared a scavenger hunt for kids of all ages to explore the downtown district and shake off cabin fever. There will be over a dozen businesses participating and the scavenger hunt will feature prizes for those who complete the challenge. The hunt is not a race and those who wish to participate can pick-up a form at the Darke County Welcome Center (421 S. Broadway) the evening of the event. You can pick-up your

547-2271

form to start the hunt any time between 6-8:30 p.m. There are several locations on the hunt, so please allow for enough time to complete the challenge! All forms must be submitted back to the Welcome Center by 9 p.m. to be entered for prizes. Solve the riddle at each stop to figure out what you’re hunting for. Once you’ve found the item, snap a selfie and tag Main Street Greenville & the business you’re in! Once you’ve completed the hunt bring your form back to The Welcome Center to let your little ones pick out a prize. For the “big kids” in your group, Main Street Greenville will be doing a drawing for three $25 gift cards. Winners will be picked from the photos posted on Facebook so be sure to share your selfies. As with any First Friday, many downtown businesses will be staying open late, including the business featured on the hunt. If
