Navarre Avenue

Senior housing project moves forward By Kelly J. Kaczala News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Plans for a new senior housing development on Navarre Avenue are moving forward. Funding for the project was approved recently. “Their funding source was approved about a month ago,” Mayor Mike Seferian said of Miller Valentine Group, the developer of the project. Plans call for the construction of a four-story, 81-unit housing complex. The location, at 4436 Navarre Avenue, is next to the senior center, and across the street from Pearson Metropark. It is less than ¾ of a mile from Walmart and is less than a mile from the Mercy medical office buildings. “We had contact with Miller Valentine very recently,” said Seferian, who also is a member of the Oregon Planning Commission. The city wants to pave some additional parking spots that go around the senior center, but would ultimately like to connect the parking lot with the senior

housing lot when it’s built. “Just last week, we talked about access between the senior housing and our senior center,” he said. In addition to housing, the complex would provide senior care and services through the senior center. It will also have a full-time on-site manager and maintenance staff. Service providers such as the in-home meals program, housekeeping, and transportation, will also be available, Each unit will feature master bedrooms, walk-in closets, washers and dryers, and an open floor plan with full kitchens. The complex would be a mix of oneand two-bedroom apartment units and would be age restricted to seniors over 54 years old. Prime location Seferian predicted that the complex will be filled quickly. “Every unit will probably be taken before construction is completed,” he said. “It’s going to be a nice building. It’s a good deal for seniors. For those who are still quite mobile, they could walk across

to Pearson Metropark. Mercy St. Charles Hospital is right down the street. And a fire station is nearby on Wynn and Seaman Road.” Last year, Oregon City Council had approved a Special Use Exception request for the construction of the project. Previous plans had been proposed for a different location earlier last year. That development was to be on three parcels on Munding Drive near Mercy St. Charles Hospital. The site was backed up to I-280 to the south, adjacent to the Orchard Villa nursing home. Plans had called for St. Mary’s Development Corporation, of Dayton, to buy the property and then develop the housing complex. Those plans had been dropped due to problems in obtaining financing for the site. Miller Valentine Group then took over the role of developer. The Miller Valentine Group owns several senior housing developments. The group developed similar housing in the area, including locations in Sylvania, Perrysburg, and in Whitehouse.

The Village of Oak Harbor is seeking applicants to fill a seat on village council after Don Douglas, council president, was appointed acting mayor in the wake of the abrupt resignation of Joe Helle, who stepped down last week after a dispute over his residency. Joe Helle Letters of interest for the vacant council seat will be accepted until 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 20 and should be sent to the village fiscal officer, 146 Church St., Oak Harbor, P.O. Box 232. The appointed person would finish Douglas’s term on council, which expires Dec. 31, 2019. Applicants must be residents of the village for at least one year and at least 18 years old. Council voted 5-1 Monday to accept Helle’s resignation after questions were again raised about his residency. Quinton Babcock, Jackie Macko, Barry Hall, Michelle Ish and Douglas voted to accept and Ted Foust cast the “no” vote. Helle was elected mayor in November 2015 and his term also expires at the end of 2019. Babcock said Wednesday the issue of the mayor’s residency had come up in prior meetings but no one was pressuring him to resign, Rather, Babcock said, he was trying to have the mayor indicate a timeline when he would be moving back into the village. “I brought it up and said this is dragging on and when is this going to be resolved. The bulk of the conversation was around whether or not he could provide a timeline,” Babcock said. “He couldn’t provide a timeline and didn’t want to have a conversation. He brought up the issue of resigning.” Helle said Wednesday he believes partisan politics was central to council’s

The Northwestern Water & Sewer District, along with some other Northwest Ohio communities, will receive grants from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency for wastewater, drinking water and infrastructure improvements. A total of $87 million in low-interest and principal forgiveness funding from the agency will be distributed to communities to improve wastewater and drinking water infrastructure and make other water quality improvements, according to the Ohio EPA. The loans were approved between April 1 and June 30 this year. The Northwestern Water & Sewer District is receiving more than $1.7 million to replace water lines, lead service lines and fire hydrants. Jerry Greiner, the District’s president, told The Press last week that a contract has already been awarded to replace the lead service lines to 600 homes in Northwood and Rossford. “About one-third of those homes are in Northwood. The remaining two-thirds are in Rossford,” said Greiner. Homes that were built during a certain time frame are likely to have the lead service lines, he said. “Those lines built in the late 40s and early 50s likely used lead to connect the main service lines,” he said. “We’re basing it on blueprints. If they are in that range of those couple of decades, we’re assuming they used lead to make the connections. Under EPA’s program, they required communities to map those locations in the first quarter of last year. Then they came through with the funding to replace those lead service lines.” The District also plans to offer financing to homeowners who may have lead service lines on their private property as well. “We’re going to go a step further. If they have lead service lines on their side of the meter, we’re probably going to offer financing to the homeowners, too, if they want,” said Greiner.

Loan fund Created in 1989, the Water Pollution Control Loan Fund (WPCLF) helps communities improve their wastewater treatment systems. The Water Supply Revolving Loan Account (WSRLA), started in 1998, provides loans for improvements to community drinking water systems and nonprofit, non-community public water systems. Both programs offer below-market interest rate loans, which can save communities a substantial amount of money compared to market-rate loans, according to the Ohio EPA. Ohio EPA’s state revolving fund (SRF) loans are provided to communities to build and upgrade wastewater and drinking water infrastructure, upgrade home sewage treatment systems, better manage storm water, address combined sewer overflows and implement other water quality-related projects. Financial assistance helps support planning, design and construction activities and enhances the technical, managerial and financial capacity of these systems, according to the Ohio EPA.

Savings The lower interest rates and forgiven principal will save these communities more than $17 million, according to the Ohio EPA. Statewide, the agency awarded more than $374 million in loans during the second quarter of the year, including more than $22 million in principal forgiveness. Combined, Ohio communities will save more than $83.6 million when compared to market-rate loans, according to the EPA.

Besides the Northwestern Water & Sewer District, the following Northwest Ohio communities are receiving funding: • Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky and Erie counties are among communities in The Press circulation area that will receive a total of $3.6 million in principal forgiveness funding to help replace failing home sewage treatment systems. Other counties that will also get a share of these funds are: Crawford, Defiance, Fulton, Hancock, Hardin, Henry, Marion, Paulding, Putnam, Seneca, Van Wert, Williams and Wyandot. • Lima is receiving more than $43 million for two projects: the first to build a 13-million-gallon combined sewer overflow (CSO) storage basin and to rehabilitate sections of deteriorated sewer pipe. • Defiance is receiving $4.3 million to eliminate combined sewers by installing new storm sewers at College Place and East High Street. • Van Wert, Upper Sandusky and Greenwich are receiving more than $8.3 million to address CSOs in those communities. One of these projects is a 15-milliongallon CSO retention basin in Van Wert. • St. Marys will build a new drinking water plant and raw water intake system with a $19 million loan. The loan includes $25,000 in principal forgiveness. • Rockford is receiving $2.15 million for wastewater treatment plant improvements. Milan is receiving $20,170, including $10,000 in principal forgiveness, to prepare an asset management plan for its drinking water infrastructure.

Water district commissioning rate study The Northwestern Water and Sewer District is commissioning a formal study of its rate structure to provide a format for establishing water and sewer rates over the next decade. “Affordability, aging infrastructure and increasing regulations are all challenges for any water and sewer utility; that is why we are looking at our entire rate system, to see if we can assist lower income users or help large consumers to take care of those who can’t afford the system or may be forced to lose their business,” Jerry Greiner, district president, said. He said the district is seeking an independent consultant to investigate options such as a customer assistance program as well as an equal rate for all consumers, including residential, multifamily, commercial and industrial. The study will examine factors like inflation that could impact future costs facing water and sewer utilities. Greiner said he expects the study

of current rates and the district’s billing structure to be completed by the fall of 2019. Citing a survey by Circle of Blue, a non-profit organization, that shows water rates increasing in 30 U.S. cities, Greiner said perhaps one of the largest issues facing the water industry in the U.S. today

is how many households will contend with increasing water and sewer rates. A May report by Brett Walton, of Circle of Blue, found that many large cities are proceeding with upgrades to their water systems, resulting in increases for the cost of service. “In its latest annual survey of water price trends in 30 large U.S. cities, Circle of Blue found that the average price of residential drinking water for a family of four using 100 gallons per person per day rose 3.3 percent last year. It was the smallest increase since the survey started in 2010 and continues a trend of slower price growth,” the report says. A bill is pending in the Ohio House of Representatives that would impose penalties on municipalities that charge higher sewer or water rates outside their corporation limits than they charge users within their boundaries. Greiner said he supports the Clean Water Fair Pricing Act, because it would stop “an unfair practice that is used throughout the state.”

Senators seek applications for academy U.S. Senators Sherrod Brown (DOH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) encouraged Ohioans interested in 2019 admission to U.S. Military Service Academies to apply to each senator’s office for a congressional nomination. Brown and Portman previously hosted 12 United States Service Academy Seminars throughout the state for students who are interested in learning about the application process. “Ohio’s students have the integrity, courage, and knowledge needed to enroll in our nation’s prestigious military academies and I am honored to nominate students for this high honor,” said Brown. “These academies develop the next generation of leaders who will serve our country as military officers and national leaders.” Portman said he was honored as a

United States Senator to nominate every year a number of Ohio’s top young achievers for entry into one of the nation’s service academies. “Our nation has never had to look further than the Buckeye State to find those individuals who exhibit the sterling qualities of leadership, daring, and the sense of adventure needed to turn the biggest dreams into reality, and to rise to any occasion,” said Portman. Each year, Brown and Portman nominate up to 10 students for each service academy: the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. Interested students who meet the eligibility requirements should send

Birmingham to hold annual ethnic festival Helle resigns The 44th annual Birmingham Ethnic Festival will be held on Saturday, August 18 from 6-10 p.m. and Sunday, August 19 from 12 p.m.-9 p.m. Considered one of Toledo’s oldest and most popular ethnic festivals, The Birmingham Ethnic Festival: “A Weekend in the Old Country” has been held for the past 44 years to celebrate the strength and diversity of the Birmingham community, and the fight for the preservation and recognition of the neighborhood. As an unofficial opening to the festival weekend, the 23rd Annual Waiters’ Race will be held on Saturday night, August 18 at 7 p.m. The race, with relay teams of four carrying trays with a full pitcher and two glasses of beer, has become one of the most popular events at the festival. Food and refreshments will be available from the Hungarian Club of Toledo at the Calvin United Church lot before and after the race. Calvin will be selling chicken paprika dinners beginning at 3:30. A táncház (dance workshop) with Uszturu Ensemble will be held at Calvin United lot on Saturday, August 18 at 7 p.m. (and again on Sunday, August 19 at 4 p.m. at the VFW). On Sunday, August 19, a Recognition Ceremony will be held at Noon on the steps of St. Stephen’s Church, beginning with a flag raising ceremony, announcement of the recipient of the Birmingham Friend of the Neighborhood Award, recognition of local and international guests, and presentation of the Beer Keg Trophy to the winner of the Waiters’ Race.

actions and despite having a legal opinion from the village solicitor that he wasn’t violating residency requirements he opted to resign rather than have the issue divide the village. “I’m not willing to allow them to play politics and drag our community through the mud for some political agenda,” Helle said. “In the end, only one of us sitting at the table had the best interest of the community in mind. They were ready to run it into the ground.” While his home is undergoing renovations, he’s been living in Port Clinton, he said. A letter dated March 28, 2018 to Helle from James Barney, village solicitor, says the former mayor was still meeting the requirements for residency while living outside the village. “In order to be an elector in the Village of Oak Harbor, one must have the qualifications, which entitle him to vote in the Village of Oak Harbor. A person who has a domicile or permanent legal residence in Oak Harbor (and meets certain other requirements not at issue in this scenario) is qualified to vote in the village. Therefore, even if one does not presently live in a house in Oak Harbor, if he has a residence in Oak Harbor and intends to return to that residence, he is an elector of the Village of Oak Harbor. Therefore, it is my opinion that leaving your home in Oak Harbor temporarily while your home is remodeled does not disqualify you from serving as mayor of the Village of Oak Harbor,” the letter says. After winning election in 2015, Helle credited his successful run to being able to go door-to-door to all the residences in the village, he told The Press days after his win. A Democrat, he is challenging incumbent Republican Steve Arndt for the state representative seat for the 89th district that covers Ottawa and Erie counties. Douglas is a Republican candidate for a seat on the Ottawa County Board of Commissioners in the November election.

Lake Twp.

Time to sell land along Lemoyne Road? By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Is there a potential buyer for property along Lemoyne Road that the Lake Township trustees purchased nine years ago? The trustees Tuesday approved the request of Mark Hummer, township administrator, to see if there is any interest in the property from the local real estate market. Two parcels sit between Lemoyne and I-280 and another is located on the east side of the interstate. The purchase included the site of a former Ohio State Highway Patrol post that was closed in 2007 when the patrol opened a new Wood County post near Bowing Green. The building is equipped with a 140foot radio tower and back-up generator. Township officials had planned to take their time to convert it into an emergency

operations center but had to expedite their plans when a June 2010 tornado demolished the township administration building on Cummings Road. In less than a week, contractors, township personnel and volunteers had the former patrol post outfitted as temporary quarters for the police department. Two trailers to temporarily house other township offices were set up on the property. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a good buy,â&#x20AC;? Hummer told the trustees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who could have foreseen we would need to move into it?â&#x20AC;? On another parcel, Hummer, who is also the township police chief, had floated the idea of constructing a shooting range for training officers but a range was never constructed. Police emergency dispatching service was routed through the Northwood Police Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 9-1-1 system immediately after the tornado. The township resumed the service but it has since been taken over by the Wood County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office.

Other equipment has been moved to the township fire station on Ayers Road. Hummer noted the township is still paying for basic maintenance, including heating, for the building, which is equipped with a well and septic system. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to explore the marketabilityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; of the property, he said. In other business, the trustees: - Heard a report from Hummer that he expected changes to the townshipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curbside recycling program when the current contract with its hauler expires. He said demand for recyclable materials such as paper and plastic has been falling, according to industry reports, and the impact will likely be reflected in the next contract. - Agreed to consider the request of three residents who had concerns about the condition of ball diamonds at Fireside Park.

The roadblocks in your life are not all dead ends When driving a car, you are guaranteed to encounter roadblocks for various reasons. Road construction, a downed tree or power line, flooding, road damage, falling rocks, or an accident, are some of the events necessitating a roadblock. When facing a roadblock, you take a detour. You don’t abruptly give up, ending your trip. You don’t turn around and go back to where you started. And you don’t get angry and abandon your car. A detour enables you to get around a roadblock in order to continue your journey. Although roadblocks are inconvenient, they are necessary to ensure safe travel by avoiding adverse road conditions In life, you will encounter roadblocks caused by external circumstances. Although you have no control over them, you still have to take the appropriate detours. Detours are annoying, but don’t allow yourself to become frustrated. Safely arriving at your desired destination is the objective. It’s OK if doing so requires more time than you anticipated, so don’t get stressed out. You also create your own roadblocks

Golden Advice

by Bryan Golden due to your actions or inactions. They are just as real as any other impediment. The difference is that since you created them, you can also vanquish them. You can take a detour around your roadblocks, or you can remove them entirely. Not paying attention to what is going on in your life is a sure-fire way of constructing roadblocks. In this mode, you are constantly in crisis repair. You are trying to fix preventable problems after they occur. Once a problem has materialized, you have to deal with it. This is no different than driving your car with your eyes closed. You will be constantly fixing the damage resulting from running off the road. It’s a lot easier, and a lot less effort, to prevent mishaps by keeping your eyes on the road. This enables you

to take timely corrective action. A lack of awareness means that you do not understand cause and effect relationships. Every action you take leads to specific results. People who are constantly wondering, “Why do these things always happen to me?” Don’t recognize this connection. Each unintended consequence becomes a roadblock, inhibiting your forward progress. Extra effort is then required to find a suitable detour. Thinking things through before you act is an effective way of boosting your awareness. Every experience you have teaches you what works, and what doesn’t. Acting or speaking out of anger puts up roadblocks. When doing so, your diminished judgment leads to making senseless mistakes. You will say or do things which cause regret. Allow yourself to calm down before making any decisions. A clear mind serves you well. The amount of extra time required to cool down is well worth it. As you become adept at removing any self-imposed roadblocks, you can then

take the next step of preventing their occurrence in the first place. Implementing this proactive strategy greatly simplifies your life. Whenever you do encounter a roadblock, you want to take the appropriate detour. This is the route which gets you back on track to reach your ultimate objective. You want to avoid detours which exacerbate your circumstances. Before choosing a detour, assess how you arrived at the roadblock. Then determine what caused the roadblock, and where you want to go next. Don’t crash through a roadblock because you either didn’t see it, or ignored it. Roadblocks, regardless of their origin, exist as a safety warning. Failing to heed them is a guaranteed way to make a situation worse. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book.

Wealthy donors hoarding money in shady “charities” By Helen Flannery and Chuck Collins In every community, there are nonprofit charities that serve real needs: local food pantries, programs addressing the opioid crisis, the Red Cross chapters that come to our aid after a storm. Charities provide vital services to the people and places they serve. These organizations lean heavily on volunteers, fundraisers, and donors. And most ordinary donors give without consideration of a tax break — people give their time, treasure, and talent without keeping score. For many ultra-wealthy donors, however, charity can be motivated not just by generosity, but also by tax avoidance. A case in point is the surge of donor-advised funds, or DAFs, created in recent years by wealthy donors. We studied these accounts in Warehousing Wealth, a new report for the Institute for Policy Studies. A DAF is like a mini-foundation, a holding account for giving — but with substantially greater benefits and conveniences for the donors. When donors contribute to a DAF, they take a tax deduction — often a big one. But those funds can then sit in the DAF for years, even generations, before they’re granted out to charities working to meet real social needs. Originally created by community foundations, DAFs have been recently adopted by for-profit Wall Street firms like Fidelity Investments, Goldman Sachs, and Charles Schwab. These firms created charitable DAFs to serve their wealthy clients’ philanthropic goals, while happily charging fees to keep funds under management. They have no legal incentive to see funds move in a timely way to active

Guest Editorial charities, so corporate-affiliated DAFs have been growing exponentially in recent years. A decade ago, the biggest donation recipients in the United States were the United Way, the Red Cross, and the American Cancer Society. Today, it’s the Fidelity Charitable Gift Fund. In fact, six of the ten largest charity recipients are DAFs. Donations to DAFs grew by 66 percent over the past five years, compared to just 15 percent for charitable giving by individual donors. Donations to Fidelity Charitable grew over 400 percent over seven years, to nearly $7 billion last year. Our tax code provides incentives for people to give to charity through the charitable tax deduction. The ultra-wealthy are the biggest beneficiaries of this deduction, which comes at a cost to the rest of us. For every dollar a millionaire gives to charity, the public subsidizes 37 to 57 cents of that donation through diminished tax revenue. By giving to their own selected charities, millionaires are paying less for public services like infrastructure, national defense, veteran care, and parks. So there’s a natural public interest in making sure DAF donations at least move quickly to active charities. But there’s no legal requirement for DAFs to pay out quickly — or ever.

DAFs also open up loopholes for donors and private foundations to get around tax restrictions, and have little transparency and accountability. Simple reforms could prevent these abuses. Lawmakers could require the distribution of DAF donations within a fixed number of years. They could delay the tax deduction until funds are paid out to a public charity. They could also ban DAFs from giving to private foundations, and vice versa — closing loopholes that further de-

lay giving to active charities. And they could bring greater scrutiny to gifts of appreciated assets. We don’t want to discourage charitable giving, but the current system poses significant risks to nonprofits, the people they serve, and taxpayers. As a society, we can’t condone hoarding wealth at a time of urgent social needs.

Mercy holds safety picnic for Early Head Start In partnership with Lucas County Health, Mercy Health – Children’s Hospital continues its commitment to furthering Early Head Start, a community health initiative dedicated to preparing area children for school readiness. Early Head Start is a federal program targeting young children, aged 0-5, with low-income families. Participating families are invited to two monthly events, called “playgroups,” that allow parents and children to interact in a group setting. A child’s foster parents and/or legal guardians are also invited to attend. These playgroups not only encourage involvement on a family-wide scale, but also provide the opportunity for parents to experience a physically- and emotionally-safe environment, while learning more about their child’s needs. On July 18, Mercy Health hosted a Family and Children Safety Picnic at Walbridge Park Shelter House as one of July’s playgroup events. In addition to Early Head Start participants, Mercy Health invited children in additional youth programs to attend. “These playgroups can help with a wide range of family-related skills,” said Andrea Eaton, Mercy Health – Children’s Hospital Early Head Start Program Coordinator. “They emphasize peer group interaction through age-appropriate activities, strengthen parental confidence and build relationships between parents, children, staff, and other families.” “After seeing the benefits of play-

Mercy Health recently hosted a Family and Children Safety Picnic in conjunction with Lucas County’s Early Head Start program. (Submitted photo) groups through our Early Head Start families, we decided to invite our other home visitation programs, including Help Me Grow. At these playgroups, the parents are the children’s teacher, and the children can learn and play while making friends with

peers their age,” Eaton said. The Family and Children Safety Picnic included several interactive presentations to promote family health and wellbeing, including a presentation on fire safety by the Mercy Trauma Education/Prevention

Coordinator; a safety presentation by the Toledo Police Department and a poison prevention presentation by the Mercy Healthy Connections Coordinator. Safety-oriented activities were also offered for families and children.

Tips to reduce risk of foodborne illness outbreaks Numerous foodborne illness outbreaks of salmonella and E. coli have occurred across the United States and Canada in 2018. And such outbreaks are not limited to North America. In May, more than 40 cases of hepatitis A were reported in six European Union countries, according to the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control. When two or more people get the same illness from the same food or drink source, the event is called a foodborne disease outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While infection from salmonella strains and escherichia coli are some of the most notable contagions, other illnesses can occur as well, as evidenced by the EU hepatitis outbreak. Listeria and cyclospora are some other known foodborne illness pathogens. Through the first half of 2018, warnings and recalls have been issued by the CDC for shell eggs, romaine lettuce, dried coconut, chicken salad, kratom, raw sprouts, and frozen shredded coconut due to illness outbreaks. The ramifications of food illnesses are significant. The Food and Drug Administration and the CDC reported that 121 peo-

Romaine lettuce has recently been linked to various instances of foodborne illnesses. ple in 25 states became ill in April 2018 from eating romaine lettuce grown in the region of Yuma, Arizona. Forty-six of those individuals were hospitalized, including 10 who developed a type of kidney failure. One person in California died from the sickness. Increased reporting about foodborne

illness outbreaks begs the question as to whether or not more can be done to reduce the spread of these harmful pathogens. Contamination can occur in various places as food makes its way to dinner tables. Long-term prevention of foodborne illness outbreaks involves the cooperation of many people in the production chain and all the

way to the consumer, according to the CDC. • Production and harvesting needs to be safe and clean, with efforts to keep food products free of animal waste and sewage contamination. • Inspection of processing plants can help ensure sanitary practices are in place. • Pasteurization, irradiation, canning, and other steps can kill pathogens during food processing. • People who package or prepare foods must properly wash their hands and clean facilities where food is handled. • Food service workers should not go to work when they are ill. • Foods need to be kept at proper temperatures during transport and when on display at stores. • Consumers should be aware of expiration dates and employ proper food handling and cooking measures. These include thoroughly washing produce, and cooking poultry, meats and other foods to the recommended temperatures. People who experience food poisoning should report each instance to the local or state health department. Identifying symptoms and location can help health officials track illnesses.

Family income, ethnicity, health literacy may affect kids’ vision

“

The good news is that many vision problems in children can be treated successfully if detected early

“

August for many children in the United States is the beginning of a brand-new school year. According to a recent report from the National Center for Children’s Vision and Eye Health at Prevent Blindness, vision plays an important role in a child’s physical, cognitive and social development. And, visual functioning is a strong predictor of academic performance in school-age children. According to the results from the 2016 National Survey of Children’s Health, less than 70 percent of children in the United States are receiving appropriate vision screenings or eye examinations. Children are more likely to receive a vision screening/eye examination as the household income increases. Minority children are also at increased risk of missing critical steps to ensure healthy vision. The survey found that White, non-Hispanic children are more likely to receive a vision screening or eye examination followed by Hispanics, and Black children. Children who are Native Hawaiian and Paciﬁc Islanders have a much lower rate of preventive vision care. Health literacy of parents and care-

givers is also a factor in children’s overall health care. According to the Pediatrics article, “Child Health Disparities and Health Literacy,” low health literacy is a growing problem for Americans, with studies reporting 90 million adults with a limited understanding of basic health information and services. Half of all parents have difﬁculty reading and understanding patient education materials, and many struggle to comprehend medical advice that is critical to the care of their child- including their child’s vision health. Prevent Blindness and the National Optometric Association have joined their

efforts to declare August as Children’s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month to educate the public on the importance of healthy vision for all kids. Prevent Blindness provides free information on a variety of topics including amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (crossed eyes), recommended sports eye protection, and more on its website. “The good news is that many vision problems in children can be treated successfully if detected early,” said Sherry Williams, President & CEO of Prevent Blindness, Ohio Afﬁliate. “Prevent Blindness provides free information on a variety of vision health topics for kids, and partners on many fantastic programs that provide free exams and glasses for those who qualify. We encourage the public to contact us for more details on ways to keep children’s eyes healthy.” Prevent Blindness recommends a continuum of eye care for children that can include both vision screening and comprehensive eye exams. All children, even those with no signs of trouble, should have their eyes checked at regular intervals. Any child who experiences vision prob-

lems or shows symptoms of eye trouble should receive a comprehensive eye exam by an eye care provider (an optometrist or an ophthalmologist.) Some children are more likely to have eye problems. A child’s doctor should be aware of the following factors that may make a child more likely to develop a vision problem: •The child was born prematurely • The child has a family history of eye problems (Issues can range from childhood cataract to lazy eye, to misaligned eyes or eye tumors). • The child has had an eye injury (Problems resulting from childhood eye injuries may develop much later in life). • The child has diabetes (Both children and adults with diabetes should have a dilated eye exam at least once a year). Children in these high-risk categories should be examined by an eye care provider (an optometrist or an ophthalmologist.) For more information on children’s eye health and safety or ﬁnancial assistance programs, call Prevent Blindness, Ohio Afﬁliate at (800) 301-2020 or visit www.pbohio.org.

Working while disabled – Social Security can help By Erin Thompson Social Security Public Affairs Specialist While it may be best known for retirement, Social Security is also here to help you get back to work if you are disabled. For millions of people, work isn’t just a source of income, it’s a vital part of who they are — it gives them purpose and pride — it’s a connection to community. If you’re getting Social Security disability beneﬁts, we have good news for you. Social Security’s work incentives and Ticket to Work programs can help you if you’re interested in working. Special rules make it possible for people receiving Social Security disability beneﬁts or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) to work and still receive monthly payments.

The Ticket to Work program may help you if you’d like to work. You can receive: • Free vocational rehabilitation; • Training; • Job referrals; and • Other employment support. You can read more about working while collecting disability benefits at www. socialsecurity.gov/work. Work incentives include: • Continued cash benefits for a time while you work; • Continued Medicare or Medicaid while you work; and • Help with education, training, and rehabilitation to start a new line of work. If you’re receiving Social Security disability benefits or SSI, let us know right away when you start or stop working, or if

any other change occurs that could affect your benefits. If you returned to work, but you can’t continue working because of your medical condition, your benefits can start again — you may not have to file a new application. You can read more about the Ticket to Work program in the publication titled “Working While Disabled: How We Can Help” at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/EN05-10095.pdf.

Social Security’s ticket to work programs allow those who are disabled a means to join the workforce without losing out on disability beneſts.

Handling a teenagerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s need to be more responsible From the American Counseling Association

The

Counseling Corner

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Sit down with your teen and try to explain your fears and anxieties related to granting increased freedoms

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

One of the hardest things for many parents to deal with is their childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demand for more freedoms as they grow into teenagers. After years of making most of your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decisions and putting your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs ďŹ rst, you ďŹ nd yourself confronting a young adult who wants the freedom to face more of the world on his or her own. On some level, of course, we all recognize that our teenagers need increasing amounts of freedom and responsibility. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a natural part of the developmental process. At the same time, we realize there are very real reasons to go slowly in allowing more freedom. News reports and local stories of substance abuse, teen pregnancies, violence and more issues naturally make us worry about the world our teen is facing. But when we constantly say â&#x20AC;&#x153;noâ&#x20AC;? to our teensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; requests, trying to protect and shield them just a little longer, the result is often family conďŹ&#x201A;ict, with our teenager pulling away and no longer conďŹ ding in us, or perhaps going behind our backs seeking the desired freedom. While there is no magic cure, there are steps you can take to minimize this conďŹ&#x201A;ict. The most important is simply to improve communications. Sit down with your teen and try to explain your fears and anxieties related to granting increased freedoms. While hearing about your worries may not win your teenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full acceptance or understanding, it can open up meaningful dialogues that can lead to acceptable compromises. The next step is to go ahead and allow increasing amounts of freedom and responsibilities â&#x20AC;&#x201C; opportunities for your teenager to prove he or she really is ready to be more independent. How much can you trust? How much responsibility should you grant? There are no absolute answers, just judgment calls

you have to make based on your teenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality and past performance. Yes, mistakes will be made, but also note that most of the time things will turn out just ďŹ ne. Try to understand that this is also a very difďŹ cult and often confusing process for your teen. Your decisions are still going to worry you and upset your teen at times but when you make a conscious effort to allow increased levels of freedom and responsibility, while also fairly measuring how well your teen handles the changes, you should ďŹ nd that the struggles with your teenager should begin to diminish. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Counseling Cornerâ&#x20AC;? is provided by the American Counseling Association.

One-time funds from federal and state sources make it very difficult to sustain programs at the local level, knowing that all this funding may not be available in 12 to 24 months. In addition, a majority of these grants allow only for very specific treatment and recovery support practices and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take into account the impact of other drug trends (meth, cocaine, spice, K2, etc.).

By Mircea Handru, MBA Executive Director, Mental Health and Recovery Services Board Seneca, Sandusky and Wyandot counties. While the opioid crisis continues to make headlines, we must ensure that our responses focus not just on opioid addiction, but on all substance use disorders and other addictions. The benefit of having a local mental health and recovery services board is to ensure that programs and services match the community needs and are not one-size fits all across the state or the nation. The federal government and the State of Ohio invested significant funding into fighting the opioid epidemic (thank you!), however, much of this funding creates challenges for rural communities with limited treatment capacity.

Last, we need to make sure that we have resources to help anyone with a substance use disorder or other addiction. We should have necessary resources that provide programming not only for opioid use disorders, but also for individuals struggling with meth, cocaine, alcohol, or gambling. Local boards should be allowed to have more discretionary powers when planning and implementing services in its local communities based on the local need. One-time grants, while we are grateful for them, are difficult to be incorporated in the long-term planning and continuum of care for behavioral health services in local communities.

National Sleep Foundation finds food to help you fall asleep According to the National Sleep Foundation, certain foods may help people fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly while others may compromise a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to enjoy a restful nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep. In lieu of white bread, refined pastas and sugar-laden baked goods, all of which can reduce serotonin levels, the NSF recommends whole grains. The buildup of serotonin in the brain during periods of wakefulness can contribute to the onset of sleep later in the day. If serotonin levels in their brains are disturbed, then people may experience difficulty falling asleep. The NSF also recommends almonds and walnuts, which contain melatonin, a hormone that helps to regulate the sleep/wake cycles. In addition, foods that are high in lean protein that contain the amino acid tryptophan also may increase the production of serotonin, potentially contributing to a restful nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep.

Certain foods may help people fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly.

Parents urged to schedule child vaccine appointments School will start before we know it, and now is the best time for parents to get the immunizations their children will need. Wood County Health Department encourages parents to contact their medical providers to make appointments and avoid the fall rush that comes when students return to school. Vaccines are among the most successful and cost-effective public health tools available for preventing disease and death. They not only help protect vaccinated individuals but also help protect entire communities by preventing and reducing the spread of infectious diseases. The health department provides limited immunizations to youth through age 18 whose doctors do not offer them. Immunizations are also available to patients at Wood County Community Health Center. Wood County Health Department has appointments available for children whose doctors do not offer immunizations. Most insurance and Medicaid are accepted, and the cost without insurance is $20 per vaccine. Call 419-352-8402 ext. 3252 for more information or to make an appointment. If you or your child does not have a primary care provider, Wood County Community Health Center is accepting new patients. Call 419-354-9049 to schedule an appointment.

Zepf Center introduces 24/7 detox In response to the growing opioid epidemic in Lucas County, Zepf Center opened its Inpatient Medical Withdrawal Unit for admissions 24 hours a day, 7 days, effective July 23. This Unit can be accessed by calling 419-754-DTOX. Deb Flores, CEO of Zepf Center states “this need is critical and we are hopeful that with additional stafﬁng we can insure that help is readily available to any client who needs immediate assistance.” A Zepf nurse will respond to the call and walk the patient or provider through the admission process. Once the necessary information has been gathered, the patient will be directed to the Zepf Inpatient Medical Withdrawal Unit, located at 2005 Ashland Ave., Toledo. Zepf Center is a non-proﬁt mental health and substance abuse treatment organization with several locations throughout Northwest Ohio. The organization is dedicated to providing quality care for clients dealing with addiction and mental health disorders. Some of the addiction services include medication

assisted treatment, inpatient, outpatient (ambulatory) and partial hospitalization services, individual and group counseling, case management, recovery housing and a wide variety of wellness programs, all of which are designed to provide the organization’s clientele with the tools they need for a successful recovery. Working hand-in-hand with community partnerships including Mental Health and Recovery Services of Lucas County and other organizations, the Zepf Center works together to not only save lives, but to turn lives around and give a fresh start to those that need and deserve it. Addiction success stories are out there waiting to be written. For more information, call Zepf at 419841-7701 ext. 6100

Megan Peer has title hopes in return to alma mater By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Megan Peer, a 2011 Cardinal Stritch alumnus, is “happy to be back once again” where she once starred as a volleyball player. Peer is taking over the helm of the Stritch volleyball program, which finished third last year in the Toledo Area Athletic Conference. However, she is not new to coaching at her alma mater. She was the junior varsity coach in 2012, leading the team to a 20-2 record, and was a varsity assistant and setting coach that year, also. The varsity was sectional champions that season. She brings on a coaching staff that includes Alex Kuebbeler (King), a 2011 Bowsher graduate and Ashley Jackson, who hails from Lima. Peer’s own background includes serving as assistant club director for the Toledo Storm Juniors, which is run out of the Skyway Recreation Center in Oregon. She led her travel team to the top 16 in the region, which includes all of Ohio and parts of Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

Peer had scrimmages set up this week with bigger schools Rossford, Lake, Maumee and Central Catholic “to keep our competition high before regular season games.” The Cardinals open the season August 20 at home against Northern Buckeye Conference member Fostoria. “We played a lot of schools that we normally wouldn’t think to scrimmage this year because I think preparing against bigger and stronger teams is very important. It definitely shows what we need to work on, and we have been working,” Peer said. “We definitely have a strong offense this year with a lot of key players in our front row,” Peer continued. “Our defense is young but has a lot of potential and I believe we can continue to grow and make our offense stronger with such natural leaders on this team. One of Peer’s top returning players is letter winner Kaylia Arnold, a senior outside hitter who was first team All-TAAC last year. She is surrounded by an experienced starting lineup. “She has a lot of talent on the left side and will be playing multiple roles this year. Also, Carlee Burgard, another senior middle blocker, and Kaylie have great chemis-

try in the front row and it shows. “Hope Yost will also be an important player — a returning junior libero who was second team All-TAAC last year as well. Hope is a natural born leader off and on the court and I am excited to see her grow into her role even more this year. “(Junior outside hitter) Jamie Popkin, another returning varsity player, has shown a lot of potential and growth over the summer. I believe that with our seniors in the front row we can truly be unstoppable when they push to do their best. “I also expect a lot from another senior (opposite hitter) Shania Engler. She puts up a big block, and we are working on making her quicker and gaining speed on the court. “(Junior) Abby Martin will be setting this year. This is her first year setting in quite some time. However, I have very high hopes for her. She took a chance to take on the biggest role on the court and she’s working hard. She is a natural when it comes to having a mind of a setter, she is a very smart player and knows what to do with the volleyball and why. She also is a great leader on the court and that is very important as a setter.” Also playing roles as setters are

Popkin and junior outside hitter Lauryn Henderson. “Jamie Popkin and Lauryn Henderson have worked very hard this summer and always want to be on the court learning, I think they have improved the most over the last few months because of their will to be a part of the sport,” Peer said. “My biggest sleeper this year is (DS) Mirando Nino. She is the only sophomore who is strictly playing varsity. She is a huge asset to the defense this year and proved herself in early scrimmages against big TRAC (Three River Athletic Conference) teams in Toledo. I think she is someone to look out for. She will really surprise you.” Peer believes that with Gibsonburg and Danbury leaving the TAAC for the Sandusky Bay Conference River Division this year, the league landscape will change. “I believe league play will be a little different this year especially with Gibsonburg and Danbury leaving. I think that we have the potential to be first or second in the league if we continue to work hard every single day. These kids were doing more from 7-9 a.m. than most kids were doing all day, and I expect that work ethic to carry on through the season,” Peer said.

Eastwood golf returning four lettermen By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com

Jake Saunders

Saunders returns with eight medals Thirteen-year-old Fassett Junior High seventh grader Jake Saunders is arriving home from the Transplant Games of America in Salt Lake City carrying eight medals. Saunders won Gold in cycling, a relay race, darts (cricket) and darts (501), and set a new record for his age category with his softball throw of 120-plus feet. He won Silver in the long jump and Bronze in the 100 meter dash and swimming (breaststroke). At the age of four, he became a liver transplant recipient. Today, Saunders is on the Clay power lifting team, and in his first year of competition, he went to state and medaled. He’ll also be playing football at Fassett. According to his mother, Angela Saunders, Jake looks forward to sharing a special message on organ, eye and tissue donation. “Jake wants to tell others to donate life because there are so many people waiting for a life-saving miracle,” she said. “I want to let people know that there are kids out there who need transplants, too, and it’s nice to see him thriving like he is.”

Four returning lettermen should prove to be a good thing for Eastwood’s boys golf team this season, and it could be a bad omen for the rest of the Northern Buckeye Conference. The Eagles took second place behind Genoa in the NBC last season, and the Comets are also expected to field a very strong team again this fall. Eastwood’s only key loss from last year is Grant Hirzel, who placed fifth at the NBC tournament and made second team all-conference. “Genoa lost two good seniors, but they have a really good junior class,” said coach Mike Gardner, who is in his 47th year at Eastwood. “They’re the team everybody’s chasing, but we’re not throwing in the white flag yet.” Gardner added that he can promise one thing this season. “I say it almost every year, but one of the most important things for my team to do, regardless on how we do on the scorecard, is that all our players play with an impeccable etiquette and thorough knowledge of the rules,” Gardner said. “They know that’s an important part of it.” The Eagles kicked off the 2018 season on Aug. 6 by taking fifth out of 30 teams at the Clyde Invitational at Green Hills. On Aug. 7, Eastwood took fifth out of 17 teams at the Maumee Invitational at Heatherdowns Country Club. Eastwood’s returning lettermen are seniors Noah Hahn and Robbie Bettinger, and juniors Riley Welker and Josh Hahn. Welker and Noah Hahn were second-team All-NBC performers a year ago. Noah Hahn placed eighth at the conference tournament last year and earned honorable mention all-district honors. He also qualified for the Toledo Junior Golf Association finals at Inverness Club. “He qualified for that based on how many points he scored during the season,” Gardner said. “It was a nice thing for him to finish off his summer tour. He said he played pretty well. He shot an 88, but Inverness is a pretty tough course.”

Eastwood returning lettermen Riley Welker, Josh Hahn, Noah Hahn and Robbie Bettinger. (Press photo by J. Patrick Eaken) Hahn qualified to last year’s district tournament at Red Hawk Run as an individual, and then shot an 80 to take seventh place out of 57 golfers. Only the top two individuals advanced to the state tournament. “Red Hawk Run is a tough course and he played fantastic that day,” Gardner said. “I know his (goal) is to get to (the state tournament) in Columbus. He’s played in a lot of summer tournaments and he’s paid his dues. His game is pretty good all the way around.” Bettinger tied Welker for 10th place at last year’s NBC tournament and earned honorable mention all-conference honors. Bettinger, who was the Eagles’ No. 2 player last year, was the medalist at Tuesday’s Maumee Invitational, shooting a 1-over 72. “He was unbelievable,” Gardner said. “He narrowly missed two holes-in-one. It was a tremendous day for him. He’s also played in a lot of summer tournaments. Robbie has made the most improvement with his length off the tee. He hits it out there pretty far compared to what he was doing. His game is solid and he has a great knowledge of the game.” Welker missed advancing out of last

year’s sectional tournament by one stroke. “He’s improved a lot each of the last two years,” Gardner said. “He probably wants to come down another stroke and a half this season. He also hits it far and he’s a good putter from short range, those threeto seven-footers.” Gardner said Josh Hahn has made the most marked improvement of any Eastwood golfer. “He played in a lot of summer tournaments and he’s more physically fit this year,” the coach said. “He may be the longest hitter on the team. His whole game has improved. Consistency was his problem last year, so we’re looking for his average to drop tremendously.” Jacob Halko, a junior, has emerged as the Eagles’ fifth man, “based on our qualifier scores,” according to Gardner. Halko carded a 13-over 84 at the Clyde Invitational, his first varsity tournament. “We had three 18-hole rounds and he fit right into the fifth spot,” Gardner said. “He joined a course this year and played and got better in every phase in the game. He keeps it in play pretty well and has just gotten a lot better. I’m anxious to see what he can do.”

3 Flyers picking up where they left off By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Lakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girls golf team â&#x20AC;&#x153;did pretty wellâ&#x20AC;? last season, according to second-year coach Jeff Gajdostik. The Flyers took second place behind Otsego at the Northern Buckeye Conference tournament and won two of the four conference shootouts during the regular Aubrey Kunkelman season. Three AllNBC players return from that team, including all-conference first-team performers Autumn Schmidt and Kimmy Zoltani. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking for improvement this year,â&#x20AC;? Gajdostik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Capturing a league title would be nice. That would be a goal, and to get past sectionals. That would be cool. This is only the third or fourth year of golf here (at Lake), so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the infant stages. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see all of the girls improve on what they did last year.â&#x20AC;? Schmidt, a senior, averaged around 46 strokes for nine holes last season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Autumn can be a really, really good player this year,â&#x20AC;? Gajdostik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a much better player this year. She worked out at CIC this summer and I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helped her greatly, being able to practice there and play there. She plays in a lot of junior tournaments in the area and she had a couple of first-place finishes. She has the potential to go pretty far. She has a good all-around game. Her driving has improved and her irons have improved. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always had a good short game.â&#x20AC;? Zoltani, a junior, has proven to be a consistent golfer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always right around the high 40s or low 50s,â&#x20AC;? Gajdostik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very capable of shooting in the low to mid 40s consistently. She needs to maybe improve on gaining some distance off the tee. Other

Gibsonburg boys golf returns two lettermen â&#x20AC;&#x201D; senior Fred Sisco, a second team All-Toledo Area Athletic Conference golfer last year, and senior Nathan Turnow. Sisco averaged 41.6 strokes for nine holes in league golf last year, shooting 37, 39, 42, 42, 37, 47 and 47. Tornow averaged 50.7 strokes (55, 51, 47, 47, 55, 50, 50). Last year, Gibsonburg had a 20-4 dual meet record and was 6-1 in the TAAC, finishing second in the league and second at the TAAC championship tournament with a 343 score. This year, the Golden Bears will compete in the Sandusky Bay Conference River Division. Other key golfers are senior Tyler Pelish, juniors Mitchel Delventhal, Jason Hasselbach, Nick Tornow and Brendan Frey and freshman Jacob Hacker. Kirk Katafias is in his fourth year as coach. Last year, Gibsonburg golfer Sydney Leyerle was the medalist at the TAAC tournament, shooting a 75, and she was named Golfer of the Year.

Gajdostik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I expect some improvement out of her. She has a very good short game, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on chipping and putting.

Clay golf teams return a combined nine lettermen By Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com The Clay golf teams combined have nine returning starters — including five seniors on the boys team and four returning letter winners on the girls team. In addition, Clay boys golf coach Rob Belegrin has one very talented golfer in senior Palmer Yenrick. Belegrin has been at the helm of the Clay boys program for 21 years, so he’s seen a lot of high school golf and knows potential when he sees it. Yenrick, a first team All-Three Rivers Athletic Conference golfer last year, qualified this summer for a national tournament in South Carolina. His junior year at Clay, Yenrick had an 18-hole average of 75 strokes on his way to first team all-district honors. However, Yenrick is not the only talented golfer on Belegrin’s team, and the coach believes his team has a chance to compete for a TRAC title this year. Joining Yenrick are J.J. Utter, who averaged 81 strokes en route to a second team All-TRAC honor, along with honorable mention All-TRAC selections Andrew St. Julian (82), Brodi Belinski (84) and Ryan Juhasz, who played in every varsity match last season. All are seniors. In the TRAC, the competition looks fierce, as was proved at Central Catholic’s Irish Invitational, held at Stone Ridge Golf Course in Bowling Green last Monday. Clay finished fourth against six other TRAC schools, but was only six strokes behind champion Findlay (334). St. John’s (335) was third, followed by St. Francis (337), Clay (340), Whitmer (358), Central (407) and Fremont Ross (437). Last year at the TRAC championship, also at Stone Ridge, Clay shot 349 to place fifth behind St. John’s (307), St. Francis (320), Central (327), Findlay (333) and ahead of Whitmer (372) and Ross (436). In the final TRAC standings, which included dual matches, Clay finished third with 82½ points, placing behind St. John’s (115½),

St. Francis (90) and ahead of Central (64½), Findlay (57), Whitmer (36) and Ross (16½). This same group of Clay golfers qualified for last year’s Division I district tournament at Red Hawk Run, shooting a 337, which was not good enough to qualify for state. At last year’s Stone Ridge sectional, Yenrick shot 72, Utter an 88, St. Julian 84, Belinski 81 and Juhasz 99 as the team scored 325 to place third and advance to Red Hawk. St. John’s shot 314 to win the district and St. Francis was fourth, shooting 330. Coach Kevin Crosson has four returning starters from last year’s team, which placed fourth in the TRAC. He has a total of 14 girls in the program for varsity and junior varsity, adding that four of the top six golfers “will be interchangeable as far as scoring as they are so close and competitive.” “We are currently third in the TRAC and hoping to overcome Notre Dame Academy for second place. The girls are working hard and they are a pleasure to coach,” Crosson said. Among the returnees are Maddie Huss and Macie Grimes, both honorable mention All-TRAC performers a year ago. One other golfer, Cali Jo Quigg, has seen her score improve by over 20 strokes since last year. At the first TRAC shootout at Red Hawk Run, the Eagles finished third with a team total of 384. Grimes shot 92, Quigg 95, Huss 103, Ellie McVicker 94 and Lily Malin 137. Tuesday against Eastwood at Eagle’s Landing, Clay won 187-246. Quigg shot 44, Grimes 49, Huss 49, McVicker 45, Malin 55 and Isabella Roberts 68. At last year’s TRAC championships at Stone Ridge, Clay shot 426 to finish behind eventual Division I state team qualifier St. Ursula (308), Notre Dame (332) and Findlay (379). Following Clay was Whitmer (447), and Ross, which did not have enough golfers to accumulate a score. The now-graduated Natalie Quinlan led Clay with a 96, Huss and McVicker shot 108, Grimes 114, Sara Berg 116 and Quigg 125.

A BGSU Falcon lands in Toledo Forward Tyler Spezia from the Bowling Green Falcons has agreed to terms with the Toledo Walleye for the 2018-19 season. Spezia joins the Walleye after a stellar career for the Falcons, appearing in 147 games while scoring 34 goals with 38 assists for 72 points and 103 penalty minutes. During his four year career the Clinton Township, Michigan native posted a plus 33. As a senior Assistant Captain, he scored 10 goals (tied for third most on team) with six assists and was named WCHA Player of the Week when he picked up a hat trick plus an assist at Lake Superior State on January 29. “Tyler brings an exciting skill set to our team for the upcoming season that we will look forward to on the ice,” said Coach Dan Watson. “The experience he gained playing for a terrific program and coach Chris Bergeron will help him make the transition from college to professional hockey.” The 25-year-old forward set a career high as a junior when he collected 30 points (8G, 22A) with 53 penalty minutes and a plus 13. His 22 assists led the Falcons in the 2016-17 season. Twice Spezia was named to the WCHA All-Academic

Team for his work in the classroom. Prior to joining Bowling Green, the 5’10”, 171 pound forward spent back to back years in the USHL with Dubuque then Youngstown. With the Youngstown Phantoms in 2013-14 he had 73 penalty minutes with 22 points (10G, 12A) in 58 games. A combined 412 points over the last four years are back as forwards Shane Berschbach and A.J. Jenks have each agreed to terms with the Walleye. Berschbach, the native of Clawson, Michigan, is coming off another outstanding season in which he produced 51 points (19G, 32A) while playing at a career best plus 19. The 27-year-old set new single season Walleye records with 68 assists and 86 points during the 2016-17 campaign. He is a two time winner of the ECHL Sportsmanship Award (2015-2017). Jenks is all over the Walleye All-Time record book after collecting 29 points (15G, 14A) in 40 games played this past season for the Walleye. Like Berschbach, the Wolverine Lake, Michigan native finished last year with a career best plus 16 to go along with 61 penalty minutes.

Inspirational Message of the Week: Desperation The shining dreams and ideals of youth often become tarnished and faded in mid-life. We expected great things from life but are disappointed to see our dreams unfulfilled and time running out. Thoreau famously remarked that “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” Living with this desperation takes a heavy toll which few can bear. Most of us either relinquish the dreams or lower our expectations. Some of us continue to believe that the brass ring might still be grasped. But no one can live with the thought that they have somehow failed at life, or failed to live up to their own ideals. So how should we face this? How do we live in such a way

Northwood

that we can approach the grave with a full-throated singing of our dreams and ideals? One way is to keep doing the best that we can, knowing we are finite creatures who often stumble. But, at least if we know that we have run the race with determination, never giving up, we will know we have done our best. We should also realize that this isn’t an individual race, but a relay race, where we have taken the baton from others and will soon pass it on. And finally, to complete the analogy, the coach of our team is God, and ultimately God’s team will win. We are all cosmic winners if we are on the side of goodness. “When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who watch over my way.” Psalm 142:3
