MILTON - Decades of glass collecting have shaped a piece of art like no other. The undeniable love for Blenko has forged an unbreakable bond that is as transparent as the glass the factory sells. The "birthday piece" is like a magnet. Every year, it draws men and women from around the world to the Milton factory. During the week leading up to the Saturday sale, the Blenko Glass parking lot transforms into a campground. Tents line the ground, lawn chairs sprawl across the grass and the stories, friendships and fun that have made Blenko a household name begin. It's dedication, love and friend-
A dedicated passion - The parking lot at Blenko Glass is lined with campers more than 24 hours before the sale of the "birthday piece." Photo by Justin Waybright ships, said longtime glass-collector Barry Copley. "It's like a family reunion," the Charleston resident said. "We're
all a family of Blenko Glass collectors." Copley continued, "Once you start, you can't stop."
St. Albans resident Eppie Boles knows that feeling all too well. For more than 30 years, the dedicated collector has followed Blenko's "birthday pieces" to Stone & Thomas, the Clay Center, ElderBeerman and its present venue at the factory. It's a passion she plans to pursue the rest of her life. Boles' home is like a Blenko showcase. "It's definitely not childproof," she laughed. Like Copley, Boles enjoys the special relationships found among the Blenko campers. "It's an unspoken camaraderie - we all share stories and start laughing right off the bat," she said.

WeeklyDevotional By Mary Jane “JULY 4th = RABIES” Thought for the week: And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. Luke: 10-34 (KJV) This week we will celebrate the 4th of July, the signing of the Declaration of Independence document in 1776, declaring freedom for the 13 colonies from British rule. It was not really signed by the famous signature of John Hancock until August 1776. Seems as though the document became lost in printing for a few days. When recovered, his signature was such outstanding penmanship, that’s where you get the cliché - sign your John Hancock. Since it is a national holiday, we celebrate with families and friends, watch parades, have picnics, and cookouts; ending the day with the customary fireworks display - making it a day to remember. Well, I remember one July day in the early 50’s, the disease of rabid dogs hit in our area. While playing outside the house, my mom called “get in the house now!”, a neighbor had phoned
and informed her a stray dog was running down our country road, foaming at the mouth, growling, and snapping at anything in its pathway. A few times, more than once, we encountered this dog madness in our community. Rabies is a viral disease that travels to the brain and infects the central nervous system - any warm blooded animal may become infected; and thru saliva from a dog or bat bite, be transmitted to humans. A vaccine in 1885 by Louis Pasture and Emile Roux has been successful. Still rabies virus causes about 55,000 human deaths worldwide annually, in the warmer months, and warm climate areas, of the world, such as Africa and Asia. The treatment for this disease is a 10 to twelve week course of continuous painful, serum shots, direct to the stomach (which my brother had to endure after being bitten by a rabid dog many years ago). The dog had fallen thru a basement window at night, early morning came, it was heard growling. Without caution, my brother opened the basement door to go down and see - the dog jumped, biting him on the arm. The local Dr. instructed him
The Cabell Standard to remove its head and take it to the Charleston Health Dept. to confirm it was rabid. So his treatment began and continued for many following weeks. He did recover and became well again. The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing; thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness. Psalm 41: 3. July 3rd marks the beginning of dog days, typically the most humid and hottest days of the year. July is the least amount of weddings month. July birthstone is the ruby. Verse IV of a poem called “THE NAME OF OLD GLORY’’ written by James Whitcomb Riley sums it up about our dear old flag, that we should fly it proudly, every day of the year, not only on the 4th – at which time, we notice most. The poem goes like this: And it spake, with a shake of the voice, and it said; By the driven snow-white and the living blood-red of my bars, And their heaven of stars over head. By the symbol conjoined of them all, skyward east, As I float from the steeple, or flap at the mast, Or droop o’er the sod, as the glory of God So I came by the name of OLD GLORY. Prayer: Thank you our Father, for our freedom, to be able to worship you freely in our own ways. Amen.

Velma’sView By Velma Kitchens Camping
STAFF REPORT ONA – Cabell Midland’s Jacob Burcham has been named the 2012-13 Gatorade West Virginia Boys Track & Field Athlete of the Year. The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the track, distinguishes Burcham as West Virginia’s best high school boys’ track & field athlete. Burcham is now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Boys Track & Field Athlete of the Year. The state’s three-time Gatorade Cross Country Runner of the Year and the two-time returning Gatorade Track & Field Athlete of the Year, Burcham won two individual state championships at the Class AAA state meet this spring
and led the Knights to a secondplace finish as a team. The 5-foot-10, 153-pound senior won the 1600 with a time of 4:13.33 and the 3200 in 9:08.34, winning both events for a third straight year. He also placed third in the 800 in 1:55.46 and ran the anchor leg for the winning 4x800meter relay quartet. Burcham’s top time in the 3000 of 8:22.62 at the Arcadia Invitational ranked as the No. 12 performance among prep competitors in 2013 at the time of his selection. He also ranked in the top 100 nationally in the mile, the 1600 and the 3200. Burcham has maintained a weighted 4.07 GPA in the classroom. The vice president of the Cabell Midland High student body, he has volunteered locally doing routine maintenance and errands for the elderly and as a youth track coach and mentor.
Burcham has signed a National Letter of Intent to compete in track and field on scholarship at the University of Oklahoma this fall. The Gatorade Player of the Year program annually recognizes one winner in the District of Columbia and each of the 50 states that sanction high school football, girls volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls soccer, baseball, softball, and boys and girls track & field, and awards one National Player of the Year in each sport. The selection process is administered by the Gatorade high school sports leadership team in partnership with USA TODAY High School Sports, which work with top sport-specific experts and a media advisory board of accomplished, veteran prep sports journalists to determine the state winners in each sport.

What possesses men and women to take off for the mountains to go camping when they have all the modern conveniences of home? I noticed this a couple weeks ago as we were at Watoga State Park and thought to myself, are we silly or just adventurous? Some people like to rough it, which I call sleeping in tents and cooking on the Coleman stoves and going to the bathhouse for personal needs. Others are semi-roughers who like to stay in their camping vans which do have some of the modern conveniences - like some electrical hookups - like the necessity of coffee. We used to have a camper van which had a sink, refrigerator, microwave and a two burner propane stove. We even had air conditioning! The camp fire at night and in the chilly mornings is really nice. Nothing to do but sit around and commune with nature. We did see deer come right up to us as they are used to people and then there are the squirrel and the birds and the crow. I guess the crow followed us from home to Watoga. I did see the people put up the pop up campers and that to me is the easiest way to go. I found that the men do the driving and the women get out and direct the way into the camp site for the men. All the time to put everything up, get the firewood, get the water and everything set up takes work. It really does take work to play. Sometimes we have to go back to work to get a rest. We found we didn't use our camper van so much so we sold it. We since have a van that sleeps two people and is easier to drive than the camper van we had. Then there are those who have the big deluxe campers that have all the conveniences of home, I mean really everything! I think you could just sell your house and live in your deluxe roving home and travel but I wouldn't want to buy all that gas. There are a lot of things to do while camping but I like to read and do much of nothing, just rest and relax. There is no cell phone reception; at least I have not found any with my service. We drove into Marlinton into civilization but I find that civil is in the park around the campfire and listening to the sounds of the night. No matter how much time it takes to do the cooking and the cleaning up and all the other things, it is worth it. And we had wonderful weather - the Greenbrier River was very low and the weather was not warm enough to tube down the river. That is really a good time on the river but for the last three years the river level when we have been there was low. People have fun fishing on the river or just wading. Camping is fun and you just never know what adventure awaits you in the mountains.

PSC Warns of Utility Billing Scam BANKRUPTCY RELIEF The Public Service Commission has issued a warning about scam phone calls in Virginia and Kentucky from people claiming to represent electric companies. The callers threaten to “shut off electric service unless a delinquent bill is paid within a matter of hours.” The callers instruct customers to go to WalMart or another store and buy a Green Dot Visa or similar prepaid debit card, load money onto the card and pay over the phone.
Elderly people and businesses are being targeted. Scammers reportedly have created a sense of legitimacy by making the name and number of the power company appear on the victims’ caller ID. Although the scam has not yet been reported in West Virginia, the PSC is reminding West Virginians to be vigilant, use common sense if contacted about utility payments and keep the following in mind: · Utility company represen-
tatives calling about a delinquent bill would not specify a method of payment. · Customers should only use methods authorized by the utility company to pay bills. · Anyone who receives a billing call should try to verify the identity of the caller and report to police calls that seem similar to the scam. For more information on authorized payment locations, contact your utility company.

The Cabell Standard
A new look at an old book
David Payne Sr. Column by David Payne Sr. davidpayne@theputnamstandard.com
A few days ago, I was looking around in my bookcase for something to read and came across “Smallmouth Bass and Streams” by John Tertuliani. John gave me that book eight
years ago, but I had forgotten that I had it. Back then, I worked at a daily newspaper at the time and did our outdoors page for the Sunday newspaper. He sent me that book, along with what, at that time, was his latest book “Catching Bluegill.” As a scientist, fisherman and author he is a unique individual. There was very little information out there about bluegill fishing because experienced anglers the kind of anglers who write the angling books - usually don't take them seriously. John saw the need and wrote the book. Not only did I forget I had the Smallmouth book, I had forgotten just how unique it is. Maybe that was because it wasn't information that I was using at the time. When I lived in Parkersburg, I fished at least an hour every day (I fished about an hour before
work and during my lunch hour) and fished the same routine each year, based on which fish were active. In late December or early January, I flyfished for carp (I have caught some 30 pound fish on my eight-weight rod). From the middle of March until June I would fish with spin tackle for white perch (freshwater drum). In mid June, the Ohio River would warm up (it was a very slow warmer) enough to where white bass were active. With white bass, flyfishing was all about imitating the gizzard shad. On the Ohio River, if you can find the gizzard shad, you can literally catch a fish every other cast. The smallmouth, however, is the fish I cut my teeth back home on the Elk River. I grew up at an incredible place – I could literally step out of my backyard, step into the Elk and wade through more than a mile of river teeming with smallmouth.
When I was a kid, I didn't carry a tacklebox with me. I carried the same two lures – and only those two – for years. One was a blue minnow of unknown origin (I believe I still may have it) and the other was a Heddon Tiny Torpedo. Since I was wading, if I snagged one of the lures, I just waded or swam over and retrieved it. Reading John's book takes me back to that childhood of smallmouth bass fishing and the days where, as an adult, I've flyfished for smallmouth bass and didn't know anybody else was doing it, let alone writing a book about it. Eight years ago, I talked to John at length about his book and fishing. He's incredibly knowledgeable about what fish eat. He was, after all, an aquatic entomologist for years. That's given him unique insight into fly patterns and presentation. He designs flies for what they will look like to a
fish in the water and aerodynamics (ease of casting). His fly pattern for crayfish is simply brilliant. It is very, very simple – a wooly bugger with two glass beads for eyes at the rear of the hook. Simply tie them onto the other end of the hook and that crayfish imitation becomes a shad imitation. His crayfish fly was the fly of the month at warmwaterflyfisher.com a few years back. You can find detailed instructions there on how to tie it, complete with pictures. Check out www.warmwaterflyfisher.com/fly month/FOTM032005.htm for more information on that fly. You can find the books easily enough on the Internet. Both are for sale on Amazon.com. Hopefully, one of these days, I'll catch up with John again. Hopefully, on a stretch of smallmouth water someplace. I know a good one.
An Alaskan man learned the hard way why you don't feed the bears. The man – Alaska officials are withholding his identity – was mauled at a lake north of Anchorage by a black bear. Black bears are normally docile and tend to avoid contact with humans unless they learn to associate humans with food (which is why you don't feed the bears). Was alcohol involved? Most definitely, officials said. “He'd been drinking,” Alaska State Troopers spokeswoman Beth Ipsen told the Anchorage Daily News. He left a picnic to go on a bike ride. While out riding, he came across a black bear and threw the bear a piece of meat, which it ate. He threw it another piece of meat and the bear's demeanor suddenly changed. “That’s when it kind of went ballistic,” Ipsen said. Park rangers later found the bloodied man washing himself at the campground. He was
treated and released from a hospital in Anchorage. He could face charges of illegally feeding wildlife. You can download free Ebooks at the West Virginia DNR Web site. I remember always getting these neat little wildlife books from the DNR at soil conservation camp when I was a kid. You can actually download those now from the DNR Web site at www.wvdnr.gov/Publications/E books.shtm. Not all of the state government wildlife books I remember are available there, but there are some interesting ones: “The Bear Facts,” “Bobcat Brainteaser,” “Coyote Challenge,” “Snakes of West Virginia,” “Eagles of West Virginia,” “Neotropical Birds of West Virginia,” “Tiger Beetles of West Virginia” “Plant Field Guides,” Toads and Frogs of West Virginia” and “Wild Cookin' Recipes Handbook.”
Outdoors Roundup Two men apparently trying to recreate “Huckleberry Finn” found their trip cut short as they were rescued by conservation officers on the Ohio River near Parkersburg on June 18. Someone in Parkersburg saw the men floating down the river, up from recent rains, on a floating boat dock and called 911. Conservation officers Capt. David Trader and Sgt. Chris McKnight launched their boat and navigated down the swollen, debris-choked river to rescue the men. “At first we didn’t see anyone on the dock, but upon closer inspection we found two males huddled, wet and shivering, beneath a camouflaged tarp,” said Capt. Trader. “To add to the problem, we saw a barge approaching our location from the
south. We quickly gave the men life jackets from our boat and told them to put them on.” During the years I was a reporter in Parkersburg, I got to know McKnight very well. He was always serious, but very friendly. When I met him it hadn't been too many years since he'd gotten out of the military. His boots were always shined to a mirror finish and he had that military poise, which I'm sure he still has. He was the kind of man you'd figure was a hero. He certainly proved that when he jumped off the relative safety of his boat to help those men. The two men were so fatigued that they had difficulty tying off the raft to the patrol boat and getting aboard, so McKnight jumped over to the unsecured floating dock and helped them
secure it to the DNR craft. The men, both from Maryland, were identified as Tyler Jennings, age 22, and Quinn Porter, age 21. Officers learned that the two men had removed the dock from the bank upriver on the Little Kanawha River in some asinine scheme to float it down to the Mississippi River. Belpre police allege the men had drug paraphernalia among the men’s belongings. WVDNR has issued citations for not having safety equipment (life jackets) to Porter and possession of fishing equipment without a fishing license to Jennings. “Both men thanked us for rescuing them after they received their citations and were released,” Capt. Trader said. “Sgt. McKnight observed that if we had been a few minutes later we would have been recovering two bodies.” We certainly all owe Capt. Trader and Sgt. McKnight a debt of gratitude for risking their lives as they did.

Fireworks Safety Summer celebrations are coming up and West Virginians will be busy with cookouts, family reunions and community parades. Unfortunately, celebrations can quickly turn to tragedy for families, especially when children and teenagers are killed or permanently injured by so-called “safe and sane” fireworks. “ANY fireworks-type materials are dangerous,” states Acting State Fire Marshal Anthony Carrico. “Even sparklers can burn hot enough to melt gold and cause third-degree burns. Basically, there is no such thing as safe fireworks.” Facts from the National Fire Protection Association • According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), fireworks consistently cause more damage to property than all other outdoor fire causes combined for the Fourth of July (day) in the United States. • According to the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA), 92% of the fireworks injuries treated in hospital emergency rooms involved fireworks that Federal regulations permit consumers to use. • “Safe and sane” fireworks are neither. Fireworks and sparklers are designed to explode or throw off showers of hot sparks. Temperatures may exceed 1200°F— hot enough to melt some metals. • An estimated 8,600 people were treated for injuries caused by fireworks in 2010, and 73 percent of the injuries occurred between June 18 – July 18. • Also in 2010, there were 1,200 injuries associated with sparklers and 900 injuries from firecrackers. • Although careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths nationally, the chances of someone dying in a fire caused by fireworks is three times greater than the corresponding risk than when a cigarette is in use. • Burns are the leading cause of injury from fireworks, followed by lacerations and contusions, all primarily involving the fingers, hands, eyes, and facial area. How Can You Prevent Fireworks Injuries? By far, the safest way to enjoy fireworks is to attend an outdoor public display put on by specially trained pyrotechnic pro-
fessionals. • If you’re going to use sparklers and novelties (the ONLY items permitted by WV law) USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION. Older children should be closely supervised and younger children should not be allowed to play with fireworks at all. • BEFORE USING ANY LEGAL FIREWORKS, read and follow all warning instructions printed on the label. • LIGHT ALL ITEMS OUTSIDE in a clear area away from houses, away from yard debris such as grass, brush, leaves, etc., and away from flammable materials (gasoline cans, newspapers, etc.). • ALWAYS KEEP A BUCKET OF WATER nearby for emergencies and for pouring on items that fail to ignite. • NEVER TRY TO RELIGHT or handle malfunctioning fireworks. Douse and soak them with water, then properly dispose of them. • ALWAYS make sure other people are out of range before lighting fireworks. Also be aware that pets have sensitive ears and can be extremely frightened or stressed on the Fourth of July. Keep pets indoors to reduce the risk of injury. • KEEP unused fireworks away from firing areas. • NEVER IGNITE FIREWORKS IN A CONTAINER, especially in a glass or metal container. Fireworks are more hazardous when confined. • STORE fireworks in a cool, dry, secure place. Check instructions for special storage directions. • NEVER TOUCH UNEXPLODED FIREWORKS, and
make sure children understand never to touch them. Follow The Law! • Permissible under West Virginia law are items called “Novelties and Sparklers”: “snakes” and “glow worms”, smoke devices that produce white or colored smoke, trick noisemakers which include “party poppers”, “string poppers”, and “snappers” or “drop pops”, and wire sparklers, as well as other sparkling devices which emit showers of sparks and sometimes a whistling or crackling effect when burning. • BY STATE LAW, NONE OF THESE NOVELTIES, SPARKLERS AND SPARKLER DEVICES ARE TO BE SOLD TO ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 16. • In West Virginia, the most dangerous types of fireworks prohibited by law include large reloadable shells, festival balls or shots, cherry bombs, aerial bombs (skyrockets, Roman candles), daygo bombs, M-80 salutes and firecrackers. Also banned are the mail-order kits designed to build fireworks. • VIOLATION OF THE FIREWORKS LAW IS A CITABLE OFFENSE. The West Virginia State Fire Marshal’s Office wishes everyone a safe, happy summer season. But remember: it’s everyone’s special responsibility to protect our young children and teenagers by ensuring their safety, especially when exposing them to amateur use of fireworks.

County receiving new Library, Deputies no Raises By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
A unit unlike any in the state - Cabell deputies and Huntington officers check out the county's newest addition in law enforcement. Photo by Justin Waybright. The chrome pipes, air cleaners and trim glistened in the summer sun. Black paint covered a gas tank with a logo in the center, stating "Cabell County Sheriff's Department." The 2000 Harley-Davidson Road Kings are the department's latest additions to the fleet that serves 288 square miles. "This will give our deputies the ability to go different directions and egress and ingress easier than a cruiser," said Sheriff Tom McComas. "They will serve a good purpose." That purpose involves the use in parades, dignitary protection, special events and some light patrol. The acquisition of the bikes was made possible by a memorandum of understanding among the sheriff's department, city and police department. Mayor Steve Williams is happy to see area agencies working together. He believes Tuesday showcased the results of strong unity between the city and county. "We have to have unity be-

cause our resources only go so far," the mayor said. "When you start layering public agencies like city, county, DEA and FBI, you have an insurmountable force." Williams continued, "With all the agencies working together, you double the effect of our force." He spoke about the importance of working together humbly. "When you don't worry about who's getting the credit, you get a lot done," Williams said. Judging by the sight of two Harley-Davidsons sitting on the courthouse lawn, the mayor's statement rang true. By working together, the sheriff's department now owns two bikes that retail near $10,000 each, according to NADA. "No other sheriff's department in the state has motor units," said McComas. "We're very pleased to procure them." Expect to see these new rides cruising throughout the county after deputies finish basic tune ups and maintenance.
HUNTINGTON - Commissioners had a productive meeting Thursday June 27. The agenda began with the welcoming of Huntington Area Development Council's new director Gary Walton. "I'm looking forward to the challenge and opportunity here," he said. "We got a lot to sell." Commissioner President Nancy Cartmill responded, "We're happy to have you." Next, Cabell County Public Library Director Judy Rule updated commissioners on the progress of her latest project. "We are starting to build a new
library at Cox Landing, which is very much the same building as the one in Salt Rock," she said. "We're very excited about this and hoping to have the bids this summer and accepted by September." Other changes in the library system include the recent addition of downloadable E-Books and music. Also, Rule and staff are working on a new library website that should be up and running in July. "We're moving along," said Rule. Next, commissioners worked hard to agree on an issue within the Cabell County Sheriff's Department. No luck. The sheriff's department re-
quested a pay increase of $1,000 for all deputies. "We weren't able to give pay raises to anyone last year because of the jail bill," said Cartmill. Commissioner Bob Bailey responded, "I want to make a motion to give them a $1,000 pay raise." The commission wrestled with the idea. "That's not something I can agree to without looking at the budget to see where it's coming from," said Cartmill. "We'll look again at the end of the year." Bailey's motion died. The sheriff's department's request was denied. The next commission meeting is 10 a.m. Thursday July 11.

DANIEL EDWARD CLAY Dan Edward Clay peacefully ascended into the eternal comfort in the presence of God on June 23, 2013, following a brief illness. He spent his final earthly days with his family and with the attentive and compassionate staff of the Emogene Dolin Jones Hospice House of Huntington. He has a humble family who shall remain forever grateful for the sacrifice, love, patience, and loyalty he offered each moment of his selfless life. He is survived by his loving wife, Charlene Mason Clay; son Bruce Edward Clay; daughter and son-in-law, Vicki Clay Sizemore and Tim Sizemore; four grandchildren, Sydney Clay Emana and husband Anthony Emana, Tyler Clay, Zachary Sizemore and Lauren Sizemore, all of Huntington. Additional survivors include his brother and sister-in-law, Charles and Theresa Clay of Fort Worth, Texas and sister-in-law Arlene Clay of Milton. He was preceded in death by his parents, Rufus and Ruby Ashworth Clay of Milton, brother Rufus and wife Janice Clay of Louisiana and Ralph Clay of Milton, nieces and nephews and cousins. He was born on January 4, 1933, in Huntington, West Virginia. He was raised in Milton during the era of the Great Depression, which taught him the values of work, service, sharing and frugality. He remained true to these principles through his work, his services and his relationships. He served his country in the Air Force during the Korean conflict, as his three brothers had done 10 years earlier in the South Pacific. Following his discharge from the Air Force, he began his 34-year career as Director of Purchasing at Cabell Huntington Hospital, three months after its opening. After his retirement from there, he began a second career at the Red Cross in Huntington, where he developed his second family. He reluctantly retired from there only three years ago after 24 years of dedicated service, due to health reasons.
He was married nearly 60 years to his wife who was the undying object of his attention and love since their meeting prior to his military deployment. As their years together passed, their mutual affections and their faith in God only deepened as they grew together and then aged together. His children remain in awe of his commitment to his family and strive each day to live and parent with such love, clarity and generosity. His four grandchildren now have appreciation of how to love unconditionally and to care for others because he was briefly in their lives and now forever in their hearts. His extended family includes his loyal friends, Bob Steele, a dedicated and thoughtful family friend, Ann, Frank, Betty and Clayton Smith, faithful and loving friends and neighbors. He also had numerous friends at his church, Lewis Memorial Church, and at the Red Cross, including Chuck Whisman and Caroline Beckleheimer. He loved gardening, old television shows, sacred music and arguing with umpires and referees. He never missed a ball game, an assembly, a graduation or a chance to vote. He was unassuming, humorous, and modest. While we miss his smiles, his laughter, and the fact that he always made the other person the center of attention, we have committed ourselves to living our lives with his spirit ever-present. We are the luckiest family on earth because God lent him to us for just enough time to make us all have a truly wonderful life. He was anxiously waiting to meet his first great-grandchild Hunter Emana, who is due in July. Funeral services were held Friday, June 28 at Beard Mortuary, Huntington, with Dr. David Lemming officiating; burial was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Huntington. Memorial donations may be made to Emogene Dolin Jones Hospice House, the American Red Cross, or his favorite charity, Smile Train, which provides free cleft surgery to children in developing countries.

Community Raises Money for Orphanage with Social Media Campaign HUNTINGTON, WV - In late May, Advantage Toyota presented local fair trade gift shop Lamb’s Gate Market with a $5,000 check that will benefit Remar Orphanage in Nicaragua. The Huntington community and Fifth Avenue Baptist Church have been serving this orphanage for the past 10 years with many mission trips and a monthly sponsorship program. As Lamb’s Gate Market and Advantage Toyota began discussions on how to become more visible in the social space, an idea was developed to create a campaign that would allow the community to be involved as awareness was raised. By “liking” either Facebook page, $1 per like would be given to the orphanage to be used for a variety of important repairs. Outgoing President Laurie Reasons of Lamb’s Gate Market says, “We were overwhelmed when we were approached by the good folks of Advantage Toyota for a joint marketing campaign via Facebook. Once we
grasped that this opportunity could net the orphanage at Remar up to $5,000, we were astonished and, of course, thrilled. Our friends in Nicaragua were even more ecstatic than we were, after they learned what was happening on their behalf. They have many uses for that money, particularly in renovating their dining hall since a tree
fell on their roof in a recent storm.” Half of the money raised has already funded remodeling and much-needed repairs to the dining hall and plans are on track for a variety of repairs for the rest of the funds. Juan Carlos, Director of Remar Nicaragua, said “We send our very best regards from Remar Nicaragua, as
well as our respect and love for you, for this impressive effort to help our children.” Lamb’s Gate Market, established in October of 2012, was born out of the desire to help friends at Remar Orphanage in Nicaragua after 10 years of mission trips. The News Release gift shop is staffed 100 percent by volunteers, and all items are fair
trade products. For more information please visit www.lambsgatemarket.com. Advantage Toyota, established May 1, 2003, makes it a priority to serve our community as well as serving the car buyer with an enhanced experience. For more information, visit www.AdvantageToyota.com.
