Harmful algal bloom spreading By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com A significant harmful algal bloom has spread in Lake Erie, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), reported on Aug. 14 “The bloom continues in the western basin extending north and along the Ohio and Michigan coast from Maumee Bay to Stony Point northeast across the basin to touch the Ontario coast and east past Pelee Island,” states the bulletin. “Observed winds from the weekend mixed the bloom, reducing concentrations previously visible at the surface where scums have been reported. Measured toxin concentrations are below recreational thresholds throughout most of the bloom extent, but may exceed thresholds in the western extent of the blooms where it is most dense (appearing green from a boat).” A week earlier, the bloom was not so bad, according to Oregon City Councilwoman Sandy Bihn, who is also executive director of Lake Erie Waterkeeper Inc. “The bloom is definitely out there,” said Bihn at a council meeting on Aug.
“
My observation is that there’s a lot of scum. In our ditch, the water is turning from green to blue, which is not a good sign.
“
A settlement agreement between the Woodmore school board and a teacher has been reached with board members approving the agreement during their Aug. 15 meeting. Under the agreement, Megan Sander will be issued a three-year contract. Sander, an elementary school teacher, had filed a grievance against the board in April after not receiving a three-year contract. Board members had voted 3 to 2 against issuing her a three-year contract but later unanimously approved a one-year contract for her. Board president Corinna Bench and Sam Preston voted in favor of a three-year contract while Joe Liszak, Cara Brown and Sean Rizor voted against. The Woodmore Education Association on April 28 filed a grievance on Sander’s behalf, claiming the board violated the collective bargaining agreement by not informing Sander five days prior to the board’s action. The grievance was amended on May 10, alleging the board violated another section of the bargaining agreement. The second grievance states she was verbally informed by the district superintendent she wouldn’t be receiving a three-year contract because of an alleged violation of board policies and the professional code of conduct. However, the grievance states she was told about the board’s decision …“without receiving any explanation of any specific incidents that violated any policies of the board…or code of conduct, constructively disciplining the grievant without just cause and without progressive discipline.” Sander sought to have the discipline removed from her personnel file and to be issued a three-year contract. “Per the agreement, Megan will be receiving a three-year contract and all contract grievances related to the issue will be dropped,” said Dan Russomanno, district treasurer, Wednesday. “This issue is essentially settled.”
14. “So far, it’s been most prevalent along the Michigan shoreline along Luna Pier in Monroe. Recently, we’ve been seeing it kind of come and go around here. But today and over the weekend, it became much more intense.” She said her husband was at the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse last week and
told her “it was pretty ugly out in the bay itself by the shipping channel.” Beware “Typically, what we see is that the bloom gets worse from here on in. If you’re out in the bay and the water is green, beware,” said Bihn. “The microcystin readings, according to the report, are not high. I’m not so sure that they’re not going up a bit.” Toledo in 2014 issued an advisory to water consumers not to drink or use tap water after tests showed unsafe levels of microcystin, an algal toxin, in the city’s finished water. “My observation is that there’s a lot of scum. In our ditch, the water is turning from green to blue, which is not a good sign,” said Bihn, who lives on Bay Shore Road that borders the lake. “I think people should be very careful if they want to go in the water, even if it’s not looking green at the time. So the bloom is here. We’ll see how large it gets. It doesn’t seem to be getting smaller year after year. It gets larger.” Bihn said she went to a hearing in Celina, Ohio, to discuss concerns about the addition of 4,500 dairy cows there. The St. Continued on page 2

Algal bloom spreading Continued from front page Marys River runs from Celina to Ft. Wayne, Indiana before it enters the Maumee River and into Lake Erie. Bihn said the addition of the cows is equivalent to about 90,000 people.” Studies have shown that algae in the lake is fed by phosphorous in fertilizers and manure applied on farm fields that get drained into the Maumee River during heavy rains before it enters Lake Erie. Great threat “All of that manure will be land applied. About 150 people were at the hearing. One was in favor, 149 opposed. I’m concerned about the water. When you apply manure to the soil, you’re allowed to accumulate a lot more phosphorous in the soil before the rules say you have to quit. If you’re a crop grower and you’re putting down commercial fertilizer, the maximum amount of phosphorous you’re supposed to need in your soil is 40 parts per million. But if you’re putting down manure, it is 150 parts per million, which doesn’t make a lot of sense. It’s a heavier waste rate, It is definitely excessive and it definitely washes more into the lake. This is scary for the lake. You can’t keep adding more to our system and expect it to be OK. Maybe the water plants can handle it, but for all other
uses, it poses a great threat.” Councilman Steve Hornyak, who said he’s on the lake a couple times per week, also noticed the algae. “The bloom did roll in to shore. It had a southerly movement just from Saturday into Sunday. It probably moved somewhere between half a mile to a mile to the south in a 24 hour span. It’s not nearly as severe as I’ve seen it in many, many years. But it is out there. People are seeing it. So people will start asking questions.” He said it was important for city officials to stay well informed so they can answer questions from the public. “There’s a significant bloom in the lake, but there is very little microcystin that’s developed from that,” City Administrator Mike Beazley said to The Press last week. “Our challenge is we have to get this under control for the sake of the lake and fishing and tourism and enjoyment. We are not worried about our drinking water. We have it way under control. That’s not our worry. Our worry is this is something we have to get cleaned up so this community, which happens to sit on the lake, can enjoy our lake better. It’s a shame that this sort of problem has developed that makes it harder to enjoy what is really one of the most pleasant places in the region.”

Credit union opening branch The Commodore Perry Federal Credit Union is opening a branch in downtown Elmore this month. The branch, in the historic Bank of Elmore building, 365 Rice St., will be a full-service location, Courtney Hammer, who will be branch manager said. “With a loan officer able to assist with consumer loans, credit cards, and home equities, tellers to help with checking accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposits, IRAs and HSAs; a night drop, walk-up ATM that accepts cash and check deposits, and two drive-through lanes, we hope to provide local access to great financial services,” she said. The branch will also offer internet banking service to open accounts and transfers, pay bills and deposit checks. Mike Barr, chief executive officer of the credit union, said a donation will be made to one of several local charities in the customer’s name when an account is opened or a loan is authorized. He said the official opening is set for Aug. 28. Hours will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday.

Mayor Matt Damschroder and village council in late 2014 sent a letter to Huntington management, thanking the bank for its service to the community but also asking no deed restrictions be put on what type of business may decide to locate there. Huntington closed the branch as part of a consolidation. “We couldn’t be more excited,” the mayor said. “We did everything we could do to get them to come to town. We began talks with the credit union two years ago.” Rick Claar, a member of council and the historical society, said the society is loaning antique paintings by Henry Dischinger to the credit union for display. “Elmore is trying to make them feel at home,” he said. Edward Jones, a financial planning firm, will continue to have office space in the building. According to the Ottawa County auditor’s office, the building was sold in August 2015 for $145,000 to Canterbury Road, LLC, a Sheffield Village, O., company.

Hearing planned on property maintenance code By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon’s Drainage, Roads, Buildings and Lands Committee will hold a public hearing on Aug. 28 at 6:30 p.m. to discuss whether there should be a property maintenance code for the city. “I know council has had a desire to discuss it,” City Council President Dennis Walendzak, who is chairman of the committee, said at a recent council meeting. “It will probably take more than one committee meeting to digest and talk through a property maintenance code, but I think it’s worthy of discussion at this point in time,” he said. A code would address such issues as property owners parking on non-paved or non-parking areas of their properties. “Should that be something police give a ticket for or building inspection. We will be discussing that,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. “We might also talk about high grass and weeds, how you store building materials on your property, the way you maintain your porch or deck that’s falling apart – things like that. “There are certain things the city can enforce now, but only if it’s a nuisance or a hazard.”
Beazley said the administration will have a “sample” with some options for a proposed property maintenance code for council to review before the hearing. “Folks will have a week or so to take a look at it and ask questions. Ultimately, we’re taking a look at how other neighboring communities are handling the issue,” said Beazley. Good condition “A property maintenance code is a way to help make sure that our properties stay in good condition, that we make it easier for our neighbors to have a property next to them that remains attractive,” Beazley told The Press last week. “The downside of that sort of thing is it sometimes leads to a sense of `Why are people on my back, it’s my property, I can maintain it the way I want, why does the government care about how I mow my grass, or how I stack my wood alongside my house.’” There are also challenges to enforce it, he added. “Sometimes it reinforces an opportunity for neighbors who might be in a feud with each other to use the code to complain about each other and that sort of thing. Those are the sorts of things that council will discuss and we’ll get some input. I
think they will come up with a decision that makes sense for Oregon,” said Beazley. Agricultural land The code would address mostly residential properties, he said. “Oregon has a larger percentage of land - more than our neighboring communities - that is really devoted to agriculture. We want to make sure we do this appropriately in defining that so that we apply this to residential areas and not so much to agricultural areas. We want to make sure we have appropriate definitions so that we are not trying to tell someone who is running a farm how to run their farm. Are there ways we can build something in our code to help make sure people are fair to their neighbors?” he said. “The city doesn’t very often get into situations in which we are telling people that they’re setting a standard for how a property should look,” he added. “Oregon has traditionally taken a relatively `live and let live’ approach, but there are places where some of our residents have said we need to do a better job making sure our properties are better maintained. So council will listen to that, we’re going to take a look at the national uniform property maintenance code, and look at things that should or shouldn’t be applied in Oregon.”
Oregon looks at permitting mobile food trucks
“
By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com
Sometimes a food truck will set up and sell over the weekends. But it’s not permitted under our code.
“
Whether they’re selling hot dogs, barbecue ribs, sandwiches, Greek, Mexican or Chinese foods, the mobile food truck has become a growing industry. Oregon allows them at specific events. Now the city is going to examine whether to give them more freedom to sell their food. “They are very popular,” City Administrator Mike Beazley said about these mobile restaurants. “We’ve had requests from some residents on this issue. Some council members have also had some questions about them. Our code right now doesn’t present a reasonable way for food trucks to serve Oregon. That doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened. Sometimes a food truck will set up and sell over the weekends. But it’s not permitted under our code.” He said the city will review how other communities are handling it. We’ll look at what other communities are doing. Some people love them, some people don’t. But it’s something we’ll be taking a look at. There’s been active discussions across the region – some places allow them and regulate them – some
allow them only for special occasions. We’ve also had some requests from some food truck operators. We’ll present some options and see what council thinks,” he said.
Billion dollar industry IBIS World, a market research firm, conducted a study on the popularity of food trucks. Profits in the $1.2 billion industry soared soon after the recession started in 2008. From 2011 to 2016, revenue increased at an annual rate of 7.9 percent. Still, these kitchens on wheels have been hindered by state and local regulations in some areas of the country. Those that allow the trucks into their communities acknowledge the delicate “balancing act” of their residents’ mobile culinary desires with the brick-and-mortar restaurants who say the trucks take away from their profits. “If you own a piece of property on Navarre, what are the circumstances under which we would allow for a food truck?” said Beazley. “It’s a balancing of interests. I think they add some life to the community, and some options to our residents for grabbing a bite to eat. You have to balance it against someone who borrowed $350,000 and put their house up to build a brick-andmortar restaurant who sees a food truck drive up and grab some of their business. How do you balance those interests? Communities grapple with that and come up with solutions. We’ll discuss that as well. It doesn’t mean we’ll make some decisions right away, but it’s time we start talking about it.”

“
The township will place a wreath at the columbarium for the Memorial Day weekend.
“
A columbarium will be installed in the Lake Township Cemetery next month, Ron Hanely, cemetery sexton, reported Tuesday to the township trustees. Hanely said the site for the 48-niche columbarium has been prepared and Franklin Monument Co. will complete the installation “some time in September.” The trustees Tuesday also approved rules and prices for the columbarium. A single niche is 11 ½ inches high and deep and two cremated remains will be allowed in one niche. Township residents will be charged $875 for one niche; non-residents will pay $1,275. Engraving costs will be $200. Current internment costs are $200 for residents and $300 for non-residents. Saturday openings cost an additional $200 and Sunday openings an extra $300 for residents and non-residents alike. Township residents are not allowed to purchase a niche for non-residents. Flower arrangements, plants, wreaths,
toys or mementos will not be allowed to be placed near the columbarium except at the time of internment. The township will place a wreath at the columbarium for the Memorial Day
questioned
weekend. Hanely said the rules were compiled after he reviewed rules at area cemeteries. Copies of the rules will be available at the cemetery, he said. The trustees also approved contracting with Northwest Consultants, Inc., Toledo, for a survey and boundary plat of a parcel adjacent to the cemetery at a cost not to exceed $1,919. The trustees purchased the property recently for $45,000 to have more land for the cemetery available. In other business, the trustees turned their attention to road improvements. Only one company, Henry Bergman, Inc., submitted a bid for resurfacing Ayers Road, between E. Broadway and Luckey roads, a distance of about 0.9 mile. The bid of $102,291 was opened by the trustees but they took no action. The trustees also approved contracting with Zimmerman Paint Contractors Co., Fremont, for $10,732 for striping a stretch of Lemoyne Road that was recently resurfaced.
By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Four residents of Bailey Road in Lake Township voiced concerns Tuesday to the township trustees about the impact of a growing pile of leaves and other lawn debris at a parcel along Woodville Road. The residents said they feared the large pile wasn’t being worked properly for compost and were concerned the property owner doesn’t have a suitable drainage system in place. Joe and Nancy Zemenski said the property is zoned for B-1 business use and questioned if a composting facility would be allowed at the site. Joe Zemenski also complained about the odor from the site. “It’s now becoming a dump site for leaves or compost,” he said. Jamie Stanley, township zoning inspector, told the trustees she’s met with the residents and has asked for guidance from the Wood County engineer’s office about requirements for a storm water plan. The engineer’s office has informed her it is seeking input from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, she said. Bailey Road residents Kelly York and Steve Fuller also said they feared the pile was adversely impacting the immediate area. “We would like the township to look into this,” York said. Jeff Pettit, who chairs the board of trustees, said the board will await word from the Ohio EPA before taking action. “It appears some of the vegetation has been removed and there now is some standing water,” he said, adding the site may be able to accept leaves but not compost material.
Glass City Goat Gals transform urban area in an historic block Central State University Cooperative Extension maintains that urban agriculture can stimulate community development and revitalize cities. An example of this is Glass City Goat Gals. Mentor Drive is a small historic city block in Toledo. Old dilapidated homes were an eyesore and attracted vandalism and arson. Elizabeth Harris saw an opportunity, however, and in August 2011, a dream was born. Glass City Goat Gals had a vision to take the abandoned cul-de-sac—once known as Murder Alley—and transform it into an urban farm with goats, gardens, and a butterfly house.

Remembering Tecumseh, bicyclist hits the home stretch Al Thompson left Northwest Ohio on June 4 to resume his bicycle ride around the perimeter of the United States in an effort to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity and Save the Children. Here is an excerpt from his blog, which you can follow by going to presspublications.com and clicking on the icon on the upper right corner. Hello Folks Tippecanoe and Thompson too . . . er . . . uh . . . that should read Tippecanoe and Tyler too. You may remember that campaign slogan from way back in your American History classes. My campsite of a few nights ago was Tippecanoe River State Park where I fought the 2nd Battle of Tippecanoe against my once again formidable opponents - the mosquitoes. And I believe the mosquitoes won, for I retreated to cower in my tent after consuming my picnic table meal in the midst of an aerial assault by the dive bombing little beasts. Of course, the first Battle of Tippecanoe was fought 206 years ago near Lafayette, IN, at the confluence of the Wabash and Tippecanoe Rivers, to the south of the state park where I camped - a very interesting site I visited a number of years ago. This was the place where the Eastern Confederation of Native American Tribes under the great Shawnee Leader, Tecumseh, faced off against the troops of Indiana Territory Governor, William Henry Harrison. One problem though - Tecumseh was not at the battle. He had traveled to the south to garner more support for his cause of Native American unity to resist the loss of their traditional lands to American settlers, and left things in the hands of his younger brother, Tenskwatawa, who was nicknamed The Prophet, a mystic who was definitely not the battle leader that Tecumseh was. Tecumseh had counseled his brother not to engage Harrison’s forces until he got back . . . and as younger brothers sometimes do - he did not listen. In fact, The Prophet actually promised his warriors that the American bullets would not harm them, and so attack they did. After a hot two-
hour conflict, the pneumonia after Native American only a month in forces were disoffice - attribpersed, and their uted by some to village burned. his longest-inTecumseh’s dream history inaugural of unified Native address given in American resiscold and inclemtance to American ent weather encroachment on 8,000 and some Indian lands came words without a crashing down . hat or gloves. . . and he wasn’t And . . . a rather even there. amazing circumTecumseh is stance of history one of those figrelating to this ures, like Meriis that John Tywether Lewis, ler who became William Clark, our tenth presiand Sakakawea, dent in 1841 after from our colorPresident Harriful past that you son died. . . .John would like to sit Tyler, who was down with and born in 1790 - a have a chat.

Of course, he died of ness. I would give Illinois an F for their bi-
cycling infrastructure, and the horrendous condition of their secondary and country roads, as well as their U.S. Routes across the state - at least those that I experienced. U.S. 52 through central Illinois is a death trap for cyclists with absolutely no berm or any place for a cyclist to ride safely. You may remember Hans the bicycling pastor of whom I had a photo in my June 28 Update. Hans and I stayed in touch, and he was only a few days ahead of me in Illinois. He let me know that he was hit from behind on U.S. 52 and very seriously injured - now slowly on the road to recovery in Rockford, IL. I was to travel that very same stretch of road the next day, and I did so with apprehension, but I also let drivers know quite demonstrably that they better not get too close to me. Indiana, on the other hand, I would give high marks for the friendly riding conditions and smooth paved surfaces of their secondary and country roads. Coupled with the Hoosier gently rolling and verdant farmlands, the sunny skies, cool temps, and favorable winds, Indiana was this cyclist’s joy to traverse. In Fort Wayne I was able to put in my 19th volunteer day of the journey with their Habitat For Humanity affiliate, and as always, it was a good day with a small crew doing some ceiling painting in a wonderful community of Habitat built homes called Fullers Landing. And that’s part of the philosophy behind Habitat - building not just a home, but also a community. Fort Wayne’s CBS affiliate WANE Channel 15 came out to do a nice spot, and here’s the link to that report if you are interested: http://wane. com/2017/08/11/cyclist-stops-in-fortwayne-on-12k-mile-charity-ride/ I’m taking a rest day at my nephew’s home here in Fort Wayne - which I haven’t done for quite a while - before I begin the two day ride to Toledo, and the end of my mission for Habitat For Humanity and Save The Children. So . . . for one final time from the Road, I will say that . . . I am Proceeding On. Al Thompson usperimeterride.org

Revising the use of “Yes, but” may lead to success
Historical cognition To the editor: My secular rationale is that President Trump, a.k.a. 45, has failed to comprehend that it was one of the Alt Right persons, James Alex Fields, from Maumee, O. who is accused of using his car as a missile and kill Heather Heyer. I am cognizant that 45 is unable and/or unwilling to recognize that so many of the white supremacists possess racial psychopathic personalities similar to Mr. Fields. I want to reiterate that residing in Toledo with Maumee being a nearby suburb, I am not surprised that we have a few people like Mr. Fields (who may in fact be innocent of killing Ms. Heyer). Yet, we as a nation do need to address the impact of slavery. In my opinion, we can start by reading Robert P. Jones’ book “The End of White Christian America.” As for George Washington having owned slaves, I am surprised that President Trump knew of that historical fact. More importantly, does President Trump know that George Washington and his wife Martha had no children? Which is why far more African Americans carry the surname Washington than white people – be they white supremacists, Neo-Nazis, Ku Klux

It’s not important what other people say to you, what’s important is what you say to yourself.
“
Typically, when someone uses “yes, but” you know an excuse will follow. Here are some examples: Yes, it didn’t work, but at least I tried. Yes, I didn’t get that promotion, but my boss hates me. Yes, I know I’m late for work, but I’ve got a lot of personal issues to deal with. Yes, I’m always in debt, but there’s nothing I can do about it. People use “Yes, but,” to justify a lack of success in order to absolve themselves from taking responsibility for their circumstances. If you do this, you are actively inhibiting your success. Making excuses accepts failure as a viable result. By considering failure as a possible outcome, your drive to succeed is diminished. “I’ll try”, replaces “I will.” Success requires eliminating failure as an option. Don’t make excuses. Don’t complain. You want to keep moving forward, putting in the effort required, until your objective is reached. Instead of using “Yes, but” as an excuse for failure, you can use it to reinforce your determination to do whatever it takes to succeed. This shift in strategy leads to success rather than failure. This is because attitude makes the difference. Replace excuses for failure with reasons for success. How you deal with adversity determines the ultimate outcome. Your objective is finding the solutions which exist for each problem. Let’s look at some examples of how this works. When something doesn’t work as planned, you can say, “Yes, it didn’t work as expected, but I’ll find a better approach.” If you are facing criticism say, “Yes, I’m being criticized, but I believe in what I’m doing and I won’t be deterred by naysayers.” The essence of this approach is acknowledging whatever challenge you are facing and then making a commitment to not give up. This is so important, since giving up guarantees failure. Regardless of the circumstances you are dealing with, continuing to move forward is essential. Therefore, when you encounter any problem, obstacle, challenge, or adversity, your response should be, “Yes, this is what I’m dealing with but I will find a way to
move past it.” You are directing your mind to figure out your next positive step. A key factor is your determination to keep to your desired path. It’s irrelevant if you take a detour, change strategies, or adjust your timetable. Even setbacks have no long term effect when you get back up and keep going. Feeling frustrated, fatigued, or worn out at times is normal. Your energy is at a low point. Don’t succumb to the temptation to give up. Take a break, recharge, and rest. Connect with other positive people. Recommit to moving forward no matter what. Being determined to never, ever give up is an essential element of success. Structuring “Yes, but” to express your resolve creates motivational self-talk. This mental programming directs your brain to work nonstop to realize your objective. Pay attention to what you say to yourself and others. Many people are surprised at the amount of negativity they are using. Although a small mental adjustment is all it takes to reorient your attitude, the result-

ing change is huge. If you firmly believe you can do something, you are right. Conversely, if you believe you can’t do something, you are also right. What you believe is up to you. It’s not important what other people say to you, what’s important is what you say to yourself. Believe in your ability to make progress regardless of the obstacles in your way. Acknowledge any challenges and then say,
“but I will get past them.” This simple approach produces great results. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www.BryanGolden. com or your bookstore.

What happened to all those foreclosed houses? By Jim Hightower We know that millions of American families lost their homes after Wall Street’s 2007 financial crash. But where did all those houses go? It turns out that Wall Streeters themselves formed profiteering investment groups that rushed out to scoop up tens of thousands of those foreclosed properties, usually grabbing them on the cheap at courthouse auctions in suburban metro areas that were hard-hit by the crash. These moneyed syndicates have deep, deep pockets, so they easily outbid local buyers to take possession of the majority of the single-family homes being sold off in many distressed places. Why are they buying? To turn the homes into rental properties and become the dominant suburban landlord, controlling the local market and constantly jacking up rents. For example, the Wall Street Journal found that in Nashville’s suburb of Spring Hill, just four of these predatory giants own 700 houses — giving this oligopoly of absentee investors ownership of three-fourths of all rental houses in town. One of these bulk buyers is an arm of Blackstone, the world’s largest private

Guest Editorial equity firm. Another is an equity outfit that was spun out of the housing speculation department of Goldman Sachs. And still another is a billionaire whose investors include the Alaska state oil fund. Not only do rents jump dramatically when such outfits seize a market, but Wall Street’s intention is to impose “a new way” on housing America: They’re pushing a cultural shift in which homeownership is no longer part of the American Dream, and tenants are taught to accept annual rent increases as the price of having a home. So the banksters crash the economy, you lose income and your home, they buy your house at auction, then they rent it to you at an ever-increasing price. The “new way” is the same old story: The rich robbing the rest of us. OtherWords columnist Jim Hightower is a radio commentator, writer and public speaker. Distributed by OtherWords.org

German-American Festival anticipates 45,000 visitors By Melissa Burden Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com.
The 52nd Annual German-American Festival, set for Aug. 25-27, will include entertainment by nationally known German bands, plus food, contests and much more. (Submitted photo)
“
We are the oldest and largest ethnic Festival in Northwest Ohio...
“
The 52nd German-American Festival will be bringing beer, food and fun to Oak Shade Grove, 3624 Seaman Rd., in Oregon Aug. 25-27. The festival is set to open Friday at 6 p.m. with a parade and opening ceremonies beginning at 8 p.m. Festival hours are 2 p.m.-1 a.m. Saturday and noon-11 p.m. Sunday. Operated by the G.A.F. Society and sponsored by the seven German- and SwissAmerican Societies in Toledo, the festival features homemade food, more than 50 varieties of German beer, carnival rides and more. According to Jack Renz, G.A.F. chairman, the festival is set to make everyone who attends a German for the weekend. “We’re gearing up for another fun weekend full of German culture and traditions that we are so excited to share with the community,” Renz said. “What’s so great about the German-American Festival is that this will be our 52nd year, and the anticipation and enthusiasm surrounding this event just continues to grow.” Attendees this year will notice that the large beer tent that had been a central part of the GAF is no longer there. According to Andrew Beevis, Festival Vice-Chairman, the committee wanted to make the event more like Octoberfest, held in Munich. “We will have two tents this year that will have a dance floor between them,” Beevis said. “The tents are named, like in Munich, after German brewers. One tent is named Warsteiner and the other will be named Weihenstephaner.” Beevis said the GAF has also added more shuttle services including a new shuttle site at Pub 51, 5110 Woodville Rd., in Lake Township. “We are the oldest and largest ethnic Festival in Northwest Ohio and the surrounding counties,” he said. “We pride ourselves on all of the food being homemade and authentic. All of the sausage as well as the potato salad is made from our own proprietary recipes. We will be serving over 50 different types of German Beer during the festival.” The GAF will have its special mushroom, Swiss and mozzarella bratwursts along with knockwurst, schnitzel sandwiches, potato salad, smoked ham shanks, pretzels, funnel cakes, leberkäs platters, jalapeno wurst, sauerkraut, cheddar wurst, handmade potato salad, and sauerkraut balls. Looking for German sweets? The G.A.F. will have homemade pastries including kuchen, strudels, cookies, cakes and more. Contests including the Hummel LookAlike Contest, a stone-throwing contest (Steinstossen) and a pretzel-eating competition, remain popular attractions. As always, there will be lots of music and dancing. “We provide three live
German Bands at all times performing on three stages,” Beevis said. “Weather permitting, we are expecting around 45,000 visitors this year. Discount tickets are available and we have free admission to all military personnel with ID,” he added. Each year, proceeds from the GAF support high-school level foreign language education in the Toledo area, and support college German Language Scholarships to graduating high school seniors. This year, the GAF will also be donating to several area organizations in exchange for their volunteers helping at the event, Beevis said. Those organizations include the local Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society; the Oregon-Northwood Rotary Club; the Oregon Senior Center; the Northwood

Counseling Corner Do you matter? From the American Counseling Association Professional counselors call it “mattering,” and while it’s a term most of us may seldom use, it’s something that’s important to all of us -- being needed by others. We all want to feel that we matter to others. That feeling of being needed, of being significant to others, of “mattering,” puts meaning in our lives. We need others to pay attention to us, take interest in us, consider us important and care about what we think and do. How much we matter to others comes in a variety of levels. At the most basic is “attention,” which is simply feeling we have the interest or notice of another person. Another step up is “importance,” believing we are important to someone else and may even be the object of his or her concern. At the level of “dependence,” we feel we are bonded to others by our dependence on them, and their dependence on us. “Ego extension” is when we believe that others are interested in our successes and disappointments, and are truly concerned with our fate. All of these levels of mattering are our perceptions about how much we matter to others, but they may not always be accurate. It’s easy to believe that someone really cares about you, like that boss who loves your work, and to have that belief shattered when he fires you or transfers you. Similarly, there may be people in your life to whom you matter a great deal, yet you may not realize how important you are to them. Mattering to others is important in helping build our self-confidence and overall happiness. It helps us understand how we fit into the bigger picture that lends meaning to our lives. If you feel at times that you don’t matter to others, take some time to really think about those relationships and try and see if you’re evaluating them accurately. If you find that you are experiencing strong feelings of not mattering to others, it’s a good time to consider meeting with a professional counselor. Counseling is a means of helping correct and strengthen perceptions about mattering, a means of giving you a more accurate understanding of your relationship with others. It’s also worth remembering the value of reinforcing, to those who matter to you, how much they really do matter. We all need to know that we matter to others.

Get Growing
Garden queries: shady spots, green tomatoes, non-blooming buds August is here again and it seems as if the summer has just ďŹ&#x201A;own by! ed A very rainy June and July created he challenges for gardeners and even the g farmers had some difďŹ culty in getting into the ďŹ elds. The excess rain caused ďŹ&#x201A;ooding in many areas while in others it produced some lush plant growth. Varying weather conditions each summer always create new challenges for gardeners. Last summer, we struggled with very hot, dry weather while this year it has been heavy rains with more mild temperatures. Along with weather conditions, gardening always results in numerous challenges and experiences for dedicated growers. Lately, some interesting garden questions have come in and a look at them may be helpful to those of us who garden. Question: Some of the buds on my roses do not open. What is the problem? Answer: The problem is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;ballingâ&#x20AC;? and is more frequent in damp weather and with thin-petaled types of roses. A nd season with a lot of rain, cooler nights, and r) overcast days (as we have had this summer) ris a factor in producing balling. The overall health of the plant is the main factor in ng discouraging this problem. A good feeding nd of balanced fertilizer in early summer and he again in the fall will greatly enhance the id health and strength of your roses. Aphid lt infestations on young buds can also result iin balling and can be treated with a fungim cide spraying. Remove affected buds from ll your roses and give attention to the overall health of the plant. rQuestion: Some of my vegetable gary. den space is shaded for part of the day. What vegetables can I grow in this area? es Answer: Although many vegetables y, require at least six hours of sun each day, there are some plants that will grow in partially-shaded areas. Leafy green vegetables do well in areas that are in partial shade.
Get Growing by J.K. DePeal
Lettuce, cabbage, spinach, peas, etc. are not only shade-tolerant but are sweeter when grown in cooler areas of the garden. Root crops such as beets, turnips, radishes, etc. will also grow in partial
shade but need at least four to six hours of sun each day. Vegetables grown in the shade may tend to be smaller and grow more slowly than those grown in full sun but will be just as tasty. Shady garden areas should be provided with rich, welldrained soil.
Que Question: I grow tomatoes and al always have a lot of green ones i the garden in the fall when in the weather starts turning cold. How can I ripen them indoors? Answer: When you harvest the green tomatoes, pick ones that are well-developed, without blemishes or bruising. Some tomatoes that are already ripening but not fully ripened will ripen quickly if kept at room temperature (60 to 70 degrees). To ripen green tomatoes gradually, cover them with newspaper and keep them in a dark area at about 55-60 degrees. A moist area is best for this. You can also ripen them by harvesting the whole vine an hanging it upside down in and b a basement or warm garage that no too dry. The vine and leaves is not sp will speed the ripening. Be sure and ri remove ripened and bruised tomatoes as poss soon as possible. August garden tips: Move houseplants be that have been kept outside into shadier locations to prepare them for moving back indoors. l â&#x20AC;˘ Seed lawn areas that are thin or dead th seed well-watered until it and keep the c takes root, continue to dead-head perennith als to keep them blooming into the fall. h Iff you have garden questions or tips for other gardeners, email dpl3@accesstoledo. com.

Challenger Learning Center to host viewing of solar eclipse By Melissa Burden Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com Where were you in 1979? If you were around back then, you might remember the “don’t look at the sun” warnings that surrounded the anticipated total eclipse of the sun. If you were not around at that time then, please heed those warnings, and visit the Challenger Learning Center of Lake Erie West in Oregon to get a chance to view a wondrous and beautiful eclipse with your friends and neighbors. On Monday, Aug. 21, the U.S. will be treated to a total eclipse of the sun. The eclipse will be visible, weather permitting, across all of North America. The entire continent will experience a partial eclipse lasting two to three hours. Anyone within a 70-mile wide path that stretches through 14 states from Oregon to South Carolina will experience a total eclipse. During those brief moments, when the moon completely blocks the sun’s bright face for about two minutes, day will turn into night, making visible the otherwise hidden solar corona, the sun’s outer atmosphere. Bright stars and planets will become visible as well. The Challenger Learning Center of Lake Erie West, located at 4955 Seaman Rd., will hold a free viewing event from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. According to Brenda Gift, Director of Student Services and Special Programs, the event will kick off with WTVG 13abc meteorologist Ross Ellet at 10 a.m. “We are expecting several hundred people for the event,” Gift said. “We sold VIP packages that included T-shirts from NASA for $10. We had 100 packages and we sold out. The potential is there for 400
The Challenger Learning Center of Lake Erie West in Oregon is holding a Viewing Party for the Solar Eclipse on Monday, Aug. 21 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. According to NASA’s map, NW Ohio can expect to see 80 percent coverage at 2:22 p.m. to 600 people to be together watching.” Community partners, including the Toledo Metroparks, ProMedica and YMCA will be onsite with activities throughout the day. The center will also have activities including building your own viewing devices. Participants can also decorate NASA viewing glasses, take a picture of them and share them on social media. “We have approximately 500 certified solar eclipse glasses that can be decorated and shared on social media. The way NASA has set the hashtag up, tweets will be retweeted all over the world.”

Gift said she is very excited for this event. “The last time this happened was on Feb. 26, 1979, which was my birthday,” she said. “I was in Anaheim, California
and I thought it was the coolest ever. We expect to see 80 percent coverage in our area at 2:22 p.m. We have approximately 1,000 certified solar eclipse glasses from NASA that will be given out at the event at no cost.” A free preview of “The Farthest Voyager in Space” will take place at 6 p.m. The two-hour documentary is about NASA’s Voyager Mission to explore our solar system and beyond. The documentary is set to be broadcast nationally on Wednesday, Aug. 23, the 40th anniversary of the first Voyager launch. It can be seen at 9 p.m. on WGTE. “There are maybe 10 sites across the country where people can see the preview and we are one of them,” Gift said. “We will also have water and snacks for the movie, which is free as well.” According to NASA, the next annual solar eclipse that can be seen in the continental United States will be on Oct. 14, 2023, which will be visible from Northern California to Florida. A total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 will be visible from Texas to Maine.

Want healthier kids? Find a pet for those kids If youngsters have been eyeing fuzzy kittens or boisterous puppies at nearby shelters or pet stores, parents may want to give in to those cries for a family pet. Pets are added responsibilities, but the health benefits associated with pet ownership may be well worth the investment of time and effort. Caring for a pet is sometimes viewed as a childhood rite of passage, but there’s much more to the experience than just learning responsibility. Experts say a child’s emotional, cognitive, physical, and social development can be enhanced through interaction with a family pet. Studies continue, but the effects of family pets on children was heavily researched by developmental psychologist Gail F. Melson in 2003. Melson looked at literature on child-animal relationships and found that children who had pets were better able to understand biology and children who could turn to pets for unconditional emotional support were less anxious and withdrawn than their peers without family pets to turn to. Data from a small study conducted by researchers at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University reported that adolescents who had animal

Healthy kids Continued from page 14 experience were more likely to see themselves as important contributors to communities and more likely to take on leadership roles. Pets also can help children develop into well-rounded individuals. Playing with a pet requires children to engage in physical activity and can help stimulate motor skills. An English study conducted in 2010 and published in the American Journal of Public Health found that children from dog-owning families spent more time in light or moderate to vigorous physical activity and recorded higher levels of activity counts per minute than kids whose families did not own a dog. Pets may help with allergies and respiratory ailments as well. A 2012 study by the American Academy of Pediatrics discovered that children who have early
contact with cats and dogs have fewer respiratory infections and ear infections and need shorter courses of antibiotics than children who have not had contact with pets. A study from Dennis Ownby, MD, a pediatrician and head of the allergy and immunology department of the Medical College of Georgia, found that having multiple pets decreases a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk of developing certain allergies. He found that the children who were exposed to two or more dogs or cats as babies were less than half as likely to develop common allergies as kids who had no pets in the home. Pets also may foster social interactions, which can benefit children who are shy. Inviting others over to meet pets can help children make friends and find others with similar interests. Children may also confide in pets and develop their self-esteem. Studies have indicated that the type of pet a family has, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horses, dogs, snakes, etc., does not matter, as all companion animals have the potential to benefit children.
Pets help children develop into well rounded individuals.

Couples see their weddings as not only the start of a new life together, but also as one of the most important organizaĆ&#x;onal jobs they may ever encounter. Looking at weddings in the laĆŠer light makes it easy to see why many couples hire professional wedding planners. Many couples iniĆ&#x;ally eschew the idea of hiring wedding planners. But when it comes to wedding experĆ&#x;se, professional planners can guide couples in all the right direcĆ&#x;ons - ulĆ&#x;mately helping them save money overall. ExperĆ&#x;se is not the only advantage to hiring a wedding planner. These people are oĹ&#x152;en skilled at negoĆ&#x;aĆ&#x;ons and can serve as buÄŤers between couples and vendors. Brides and grooms also can rely on wedding planners to avoid to succumbing to the stress of planning their weddings. The following are some other reasons why hiring a wedding planner can be a smart move. ¡ Planners handle the not-so-fun parts. Trying cake Ĺ&#x2021;avors and picking out bouquet colors might be exciĆ&#x;ng, but ÄŽguring out how many Ć&#x;psy wedding guests can ÄŽt in a shuĆŠle bus back to a hotel may not. Wedding planners can step in when necessary to handle the more mundane tasks, like organizing receipts or puĆŤng together guest toiletry baskets. ¡ Planners may be privy to discounts. Some planners may have long-lasĆ&#x;ng professional relaĆ&#x;onships with vendors, and these relaĆ&#x;onships may help couples get beĆŠer prices on certain services. Planners also have the experĆ&#x;se to advise on which purchases are smart and which may be unnecessary. ¡ Properly vet vendors and stay on top of deadlines. Wedding planners can invesĆ&#x;gate all vendors and be in charge of geĆŤng them paid on Ć&#x;me. Planners also can keep track of upcoming deadlines, ensuring that all parĆ&#x;es arrive on Ć&#x;me to rehearsals, ÄŽĆŤngs, appointments, and, of course, the wedding. ¡ Planners can help establish a budget. Wedding planners can assist couples in developing their wedding budgets. Because they know how much many services cost, planners can provide accurate esĆ&#x;mates on wedding bills and how to allocate funds. ¡ Planners can free up Ć&#x;me. When couples are not bogged down with running errands or scheduling every detail of the wedding, they can enjoy the Ć&#x;me leading up to their weddings even more. That means more Ć&#x;me can be spent planning the honeymoon. Weddings are mulĆ&#x;faceted events that require substanĆ&#x;al forethought. Wedding planners help keep couples on task, on budget and less stressed.

Six new soothsayers take on new football challenge By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com
Week
It’s not easy predicting the future, especially when you might be risking a few friendships and public criticism. You will have to decide whether or not to pick your hometown school, and some say, ‘Be honest and you’re only doing your football team a favor if you don’t think they’ll win — provides motivation.” Others say, “If you don’t pick them to win, you’re not being supportive.” Two are returning to the weekly Press football soothsayer board this year, and they are regulars Alan Miller, owner of Alan Miller Jewelers in Oregon, and Genoa Banking Company President Marty Sutter. The other six are new this year, although three soothsayers have been in the foray before. Returning are Press sportswriter and former Danbury assistant football coach Yaneek Smith, Press sales representative Leeanne LaForme, who actually played junior high football at Northwood, and Tim Willliams, owner of Big Apple Deli on Woodville Road in Oregon. Williams is a former NCAA Division I collegiate and professional football player “a very, very long time ago,” his wife Bonnie says to add. The three rookies include former Press General Manager John Szozda, now enjoying retirement after 33 years at the helm here, but ready to put action behind the criticism he has been giving soothsayers all along. Over the years, Szozda has criticized soothsayers who are politicians, community leaders and businessmen for being “homers,” so here’s his chance to show how well he can choose the winners. My former long time boss is a Rossford resident who played prep football at Whitmer, so apart from his long time commitment here, he may not have as much conflict as, say, Sutter has in Genoa, or Marge Brown had when she was a soothsayer and the mayor of Oregon. Rookies this year also include Ron Gladieux, who turned into a media hawk when he began doing color broadcasting for Toledo Sports Network’s high school sports productions. The final soothsayer, replacing TSN producer Mike Jameson, is long time TSN play-by-play announcer Mik Gonzales. Just as a reminder, last year Northwood freelance photographer Harold Hamilton (HEHphotos.com) won the Press football

It was his second straight soothsayer championship, which automatically qualifies him as a returnee, but he declined this year, saying he wanted to take a break on the research and give someone else a chance. His mark last year of getting 77 percent of high school, college and professional football games was above average, but still four points shy of the all-time record of over 81 percent sent by then-WRSC broadcaster Mark Reeves of Oregon. The soothsayers have been picking games since 2002. In addition, for the second straight year, Press Features Editor Tammy Walro finished second, tied with Pemberville businessman and real estate agent (Home Town Realty) Dennis Henline, both finishing 113-35. If Walro had picked her beloved Penn State to defeat Ohio State, which they did, she would have achieved at least a tie for first place and would have been the first female soothsayer to do so. Entering the final week, Henline had a one game advantage over Hamilton, but Hamilton went 15-3 and Henline 13-5, enabling Hamilton to secure the sole championship. “It was great to win again against some tough competition. Just like last year it was down to the last week. Now that it’s over I can relax and route for my favorites even when they are underdogs,” Hamilton said.

The Press Box Hamilton notes that the grind of picking teams begins early in August, and it’s not always easy. “Picking the winning teams for the Soothsayer football contest is always a special challenge at the beginning of the year. The team picks are submitted almost two weeks before the games are played because of the publication timing. This means that there is no recent history for the high school and college games. Both of these, and especially high school teams, can change dramatically in just one year. This often results in surprises the first few weeks,” Henline said. “The high emotions that may be involved in a special game must be considered as well. In a high school game, for example, that emotion can be enough to drive the weaker team to victory,” Hamilton continued. “Three of the high school teams were a surprise to me (last) year. Two of them I expected to win their league championships which they didn’t and a third, based on last

years’ play, was not nearly as good as I anticipated.” Even though he is a Waite graduate who lives in Northwood, Hamilton has family ties to Genoa, and it made for conflicts when he had to choose a winner. “It is also difficult to stay on target and pick who I think the better team is and not my favorite team. I picked with my heart a few times and that hurt me,” Hamilton said. He says it helped that the Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions have typically been perennial losers. “In the NFL, winners are a bit easier to pick. Cleveland and Detroit were pretty reliable although the Lions, did win a few that lowered my stats,” Hamilton said. “Ohio State, the University of Toledo, and Michigan were also great teams to have on the list. BGSU was a disappointment, however, and was not nearly as good as the previous year.” Finishing in a tie for third were Miller and Sutter — both went 109-39. Eastern Maumee Bay Chamber of Commerce director Yvonne Thoma-Patton went 108-40, Press sportswriter Mark Griffin went 100-48, and Jameson closed out at 97-51.

Keil winner of Springfield M1A Match at Camp Perry By Ashley Brugnone CMP Writer celder@thecmp.org Overtaking the Springfield M1A Match fired at the 2017 National Rifle Matches was William Keil, 46, of Omaha, Nebraska, with a score of 377-6x. He initially thought his score was only average – never dreaming that he could be the champion of the event. “I felt good about my shots. I was holding very well, but I did not think at all that I was going to make the cut,” he said of his performance. After the match was over and he had moved on with the rest of his day, a good friend of his sent him a text that said, “Congratulations on the M1A Match!” He
didn’t know what it meant until he took a look at the results list and found his name right at the first position. “It shocked me,” he said. “Being at the top of the list is just – wow, I’ve never had that.” Keil grew up with guns and joined the military, where he was in the 82nd Airborne for four years. In 2001, he began competitive shooting competitions back home at Eastern Nebraska Gun Club. He’s been competing in CMP and other matches consistently ever since then, for over 15 years now. This year serving as his eleventh trip to the National Matches, the M1A Match was his first win. He also earned 10 total leg points during this year’s Nationals with

his M1A in the National Trophy Individual Match, where he shot a 478. He now only has two points left to earn before he’ll receive his Distinguished Rifleman’s Badge. “Going Distinguished is very important to me. But this win really confirms that shooting the M1A – you can do it. Even when everyone is switching to the scoped AR’s, the M1A is still functional and you can still win matches with it.” he said. High Junior of the event was Brendan Clark, 14, of Brighton, Michigan. High Woman was Hanne Brantner, 47, of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania with William Aten, 65, of Kingwood, Texas earning the title of High Senior. The Springfield M1A Match was sponsored by and conducted in collaboration with Springfield Armory.

Eastwood golfers waste no time — get straight to work By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Eastwood’s boys’ golf team didn’t waste any time kicking off the 2017 season. The Eagles, under veteran coach Mike Gardner, won their opening tournament, the seven-team Fostoria Invitational, which was held Aug. 4 at Lakeland Golf Course. “We haven’t won a tournament for several years, so it was nice to win one,” Gardner said. “That’s been a very strong tournament the last few years. Some of the teams that have played there and have been quite strong are not quite as strong this year. We played consistently well that day.” Eastwood has seven golfers this fall, including seniors Grant Hirzel, Alec Graber and Brendan Halko. Juniors Noah Hahn and Robbie Bettinger are competing along with sophomores Riley Welker and Josh Hahn. Noah Hahn, a two-year letterman, is currently playing in the No. 1 spot. He was the Eagles’ third man last season. “He played a few summer tournaments and he practiced quite often,” Gardner said. “He’s gotten a little bigger and stronger and added a little length to his game. He hits the ball long off the tee and his whole game is coming together pretty good most days. He’s got the whole package and he has a pretty decent game in all areas right now.” Eastwood placed second at the 24-team Ralph Hohenstein Invitational on Aug. 7 at Green Hills in Clyde. The Eagles finished 11th out of 19 teams at the Maumee Invitational on Aug. 8 at Heatherdowns Country Club, then finished second out of six teams at the Cardinal Stritch Invitational on Aug. 9 at Maumee Bay. The Eagles lost a dual match with Bowling Green on Aug. 11 at Stone Ridge, then finished 12th out of 13 teams at the Northview Invitational on Aug. 14 at The Legacy in Michigan. “That tournament had a very good field,” Gardner said. Bettinger is Eastwood’s No. 2 player after lettering the past two seasons. Gardner said Bettinger has added 30 yards off the tee since last season. “He was an OK player last year and he didn’t hit the ball far at all,” Gardner said. “He is hitting it farther this year and that’s helped him out a lot. He’s pretty good in all areas and he has no glaring weaknesses.” Eastwood’s third, fourth and fifth players are Welker, Bettinger and Hirzel. Welker, who earned a varsity letter last season, shot a 78 at The Legacy “which was a tremendous score there,” according to Gardner. “Welker, Bettinger and Grant Hirzel are all really close,” Gardner said. “Riley is getting bigger and stronger each year, and he hits the ball pretty far for a small sophomore. The strongest part of his game is his short irons into the green. He’s usually really solid with those.” Hirzel, a standout basketball and baseball player at Eastwood, lettered in golf as a junior last season. Gardner said Hirzel has only been playing competitive golf for two years. “He came out last year for the first time, but he didn’t score that great,” Gardner said. “This year he’s already had an 83 and an 85, which are some really nice scores in the young season. His game has improved immensely in just over a year. We’re fortunate to have him on the golf team right now.” The Eagles finished fifth in the Northern Buckeye Conference last season, and Gardner said Genoa appears to be the team to beat this year. Defending champion Rossford graduated four of it top six golfers. “We’ve seen some of the NBC teams already and, based on scores, Genoa is definitely leading the pack scoring-wise right now,” Gardner said. “We’re not conceding yet, by any means. We definitely need to get to work and improve in some areas. The league is not as strong as it has been as far as depth, but there is a lot of time to improve.” (Press photos of five Eastwood senior golfers by Lee Welch/FamilyPhotoGroup.com)

Barnes returns to Toledo Walleye In the 2014-15 season, he set a then single season record 74 points in a Walleye uniform. Today Tyler Barnes returns to Toledo agreeing to terms with the Walleye for the 2017-18 season. Barnes played his first professional season in Toledo with 71 games in the 2014-15 season collecting 74 points (34G, 40A) while playing as a plus 20. His 74 points stood as the Walleye single season record until broken this past year by Shane Berschbach. For his efforts that year, Barnes was named East Coast Hockey League Rookie of the Year and landed on the ECHL All-Rookie Team. The Burnsville, Minnesota native split last season between Rockford of the AHL and Indy and Allen of the ECHL. Barnes scored four times with three assists in 25 games for the IceHogs while he added in 11 goals and 16 assists in 26 games between the Fuel and Americans. “We saw firsthand three years ago how tremendous a hockey player Tyler can be,” said Head Coach Dan Watson. “He is a tireless worker that is an offensive force on the ice.” Barnes followed up his 74 point campaign with the Walleye with another strong ECHL performance with Missouri in 2015-16 with 61 points (24G, 37A) while playing for the Mavericks. In total, the 6’0”, 198 pound forward racked up 161 points (69G, 92A) over 166 ECHL contests while playing as a plus 45. Barnes has also appeared in 36 career games between Bridgeport, Grand Rapids, San Antonio and Rockford with eight goals and three assists. Prior to turning professional, the 27-year-old forward spent four seasons at the University of Wisconsin. He scored 45 goals with 58 assists in 152 games for the Badgers and was part of the Wisconsin team that won the WCHA Championship in 2012-13.
Clay juniors seek to fill gap left by 3 graduates By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com As far as Clay boys golf coach Rob Belegrin is concerned, the Eagles will do well this season if everyone does his job, “We have a good squad,” Belegrin said. “We’re all juniors and we have stated what we have to do as a team. Three out of our five tournaments so far, everyone did their role. If we play our role, we’ll be fine. We could qualify for the districts again this year. We lost three guys from a six-man squad last year and we’re replacing them with some guys who were in and out of the lineup. They are doing a good job, for the most part.” Clay kicked off the season with a third-place overall finish at the St. Francis Knight Invitational at Heatherdowns Country Club. The Eagles had the secondhighest finish of any Three Rivers Athletic Conference team, behind defending TRAC champion St. John’s Jesuit. “Everyone did their job,” Belegrin said. “That’s the thing with this team. Everyone’s got to play their role. We have one of the top five players in the area and our other guys have to do their job and shoot 80, and we’ll be fine.” Clay placed fifth at the Irish Invitational at Stone Ridge, then shot 310 to win the Cardinal Stritch Invitational at Maumee Bay. The Eagles placed fourth at the Genoa Invitational at Maumee Bay, then took ninth at the Northview Invitational at The Legacy in Michigan. Clay beat conference rival Central Catholic in a dual match, using a Ryder Cup format, on Tuesday. The Eagles’ six-man squad, all juniors, is led by Palmer Yenrick, who has shot 68 and 71 so far this season. He shot 4 under par to earn medalist honors at the Stritch tournament. This is Yenrick’s third year on varsity. “He’s a really elite talent,” Belegrin said. “He won the first TRAC event this season and he was second in our second (tournament). He has the complete game. He pounds it off the tee and has a feathery touch and is just a great competitor. He’s a

Patrick Eaken) good athlete and he knows the game and he knows he’s going to go out and beat everybody. That’s his strength.” The No. 2 man is J.J. Utter, who has been in the 70s once already this season. “He’s been doing his job,” Belegrin said. “He’s a solid player and he can improve in some areas, but he has a great attitude about the game. His iron play has to improve and his putting has been decent this year.” Andrew St. Julian is the team’s No. 3 man, followed by Brodi Belinske. “Andrew is really athletic,” Belegrin said. “He’s a hockey player who has a nice swing and has played really solid for us this year, except for one or two holes per round that have stopped him from having an elite score. Brodi has been solid and he’s someone who is sneaky long and has a decent short game when he’s on. He’s had one score in the 70s, which really helps us.”
The No. 5 man is Ryan Juhasz, followed by Andrew Brown. “Ryan’s got a beautiful swing and he strikes the ball as well as anybody,” Belegrin said. “Once he starts getting over some bad shots, he can be as good as anybody on our team. Andrew is a guy who is learning the game a little bit and trying to get better every day. He’s going out there and feeling his way and learning his spot.” Belegin added that Clay’s goals this season are to push St. John’s for the TRAC title and qualify to the district tournament. The Eagles finished fourth in the conference a year ago. “We can do both of those if we play our game,” Belegrin said. “Until we beat St. John’s, we can’t make that goal to go get them. We have to go out and get St. Francis (first) and do our jobs. If we do that, good things can happen.”

Now leaving, Decker’s impact was felt in many ways
“
By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
There are days when you see each other more than you see your family, and that’s not easy.
“
When Kelly Decker started coaching at Oak Harbor, the softball team was coming off a bad season and had a new head coach taking over the program. Now, Decker leaves the program, which just won its first district title, with it being one of the area’s best. The coach of the junior high team for two years before becoming an assistant to Chris Rawski at the varsity level, Decker, whose maiden name is Traver, was instrumental in helping to turnaround a program that reached new heights by going 29-2, advancing to the Division II regional final and winning its first league title in eight years. Decker is stepping away from the program to focus on her family. The program went from 18 to 18 to 27 to 29 victories in each of Decker’s four years coaching the varsity and came within one spot of the state final four this year. Some of the key players on this year’s team — Maddy Rathbun, Emma Bergman, Ashley Riley, Seree Petersen and Emily Lenke — were coached by Decker dating back to their days in junior high. Under the guidance of Rawski, Decker, George Bergman, Steve Decker (Kelly’s husband), Andy Szypka and his daughter, Shana Scharer, the Rockets have made themselves a force to be reckoned with in the Sandusky Bay Conference. “She ran the weightlifting program and worked out with the girls and pushed them. She was a player not too long ago and understands what it takes to play a high level and I think she translated that into being a coach. She brought that winning mentality,” said Rawski. “She had a relationship with the girls that was important. She had such a great relationship with all the girls in such a different way. She was able to be the coach you can go to talk to, the one you can have a conversation with on the side and work with on some things, a little different than the head coach. “Her passion for the sport is what drives her. (Her passion) is what makes her
Coach Kelly Decker (right) meets with her pitcher in the circle. (Submitted photo) a great teacher. It’s what makes her a great person. She has a drive and commitment to do things the right way. She has a great relationship with the girls, too. They’ll probably miss her more than they’d miss me.” Decker was a shortstop on Genoa’s 2006 team that won a regional championship when Rawski served as an assistant on under Tom Kontak. Following her graduation, she earned a bachelor’s degree from Ohio State University and then obtained a master’s degree from the University of Toledo. She is currently teaching fourth grade English at Oak Harbor Middle School. Decker found coaching at Oak Harbor to be a unique experience — better than she could have expected. “It’s been great. I wouldn’t have stuck
around if it wasn’t. It was a huge part of my life, it’s definitely how a lot of people knew me, and I loved that. It was awesome to see the program that Chris built from the little kids on up and he does such a good job,” said Decker, 29. “I think the year before we got there they were 3-19 or something and to then make it to the regional final and win the SBC and be a league contender for the last few years was special. “I felt like I had the best job in the world because I got to be a part of it and it was really an awesome experience to see the girls begin to learn what success felt like and watch that grow every year. This group, that started with Maddy and Emma
as freshmen, they endured some really tough moments, and to see them start to get a taste of winning and watch it grow is not something that everybody gets to see. I have not taken that for granted. That will always be a part of my experience there, and I cherish that.” Those memories will include a 4-0 victory over Maumee in the district championship, a win that avenged a 1-0 loss to the Panthers a year ago. There was also the 5-1 victory over Clear Fork in the regional semifinals, the dramatic, come-from-behind 2-1 win over Willard in the sectional final two years ago and the spring break trips to Florida. Decker said those experiences made the challenging practices all worth it. “We definitely all had our roles. That is another reason Chris is as successful as he is because nobody came to practice wondering what we were going to do each day. There was always a plan and a job and roles were clearly defined. It made for a successful program. It just worked,” Decker said. “The coaching staff all gets along so well — what a great group of people to be around every day. There are days when you see each other more than you see your family, and that’s not easy. That’s why you need to surround yourself with the right people to do the job — people that you enjoy being around.”

Inspirational Message of the Week: Be Your Own Hero Works of fiction are sometimes disparaged by those with a practical bias as being useless, or at best, a harmless diversion. They would rather read non-fiction, presumably because it gives them knowledge which they can actually use. But fiction often teaches us valuable lessons about how to live life, how to handle adversity, and what it is to be human in difficult circumstances. Furthermore, we are sometimes struck by the realization that we might bend circumstances and events to our will, and in effect become the heroes of our own life. That is a valuable lesson, and one which can be learned from reading fiction, but also from reading biographies, autobiographies, and the narratives of the Bible. Becoming a hero usually starts, as it does in fiction, with
Oregon
conflict or adversity. From there, one must be inspired to resolve the conflict or deal with the adversity. And before the inspiration fades, one usually has to create a workable plan. In the same way that an author must plan her work, thinking over and trying out different plots and plans for character development, we should plan our own lives, perhaps imagining different paths toward achieving something great, something worth writing about. And just as an author has to develop her characters, so too do we have to develop our own moral character. “And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.” —Romans 5: 2-4 NIV

’Cat’s seniors key to success
Calvary Lutheran Ch.
By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com First-year Woodmore boys golf coach Rodger Jimison has a pretty good handle on the Wildcats’ history in the sport. Jimison was a senior on the 1979 team that won the Class A state championship. Woodmore also won the title in 1981 and finished third in the state in 1977. The Wildcats’ last appearance at the state tournament was in 2001. Jimison coached the school’s junior varsity team in the early 2000s, and he also coached his daughter, Kelsey, who represented Woodmore on the local girls’ circuit. Jimison replaces Steve Burner as the Wildcats’ varsity coach this season. “Some pretty steep goals have been set by this team,” Jimison said. “We’re in a pretty good position right now. All of us sat down at the beginning of the year – Steve did a nice job of introducing me to them – and we all kind of hit it off pretty good. They all set their own personal goals. “We’re kind of trending in the right direction as a team. My returning lettermen know where their responsibilities are. We’re having fun. Any sport you coach, you need to have fun.” Jimison said Woodmore has performed well in its opening tournaments of the season, which included events in Lakeland Golf Club in Fostoria, Green Hills in Clyde, Maumee Bay, Nature Trails, and the Catawba Island Club. “We placed in the top 10 at the Genoa tournament at Maumee Bay,” Jimison said.
“That’s when I saw us kind of turn a little bit. We finished fifth behind St. John’s, Central Catholic, Clay and Liberty Benton. That was one big step we needed to take.” Woodmore’s eight-man roster includes seniors Mitchell Miller, Ian Cook – the team’s only returning lettermen — Hunter Stevenson, Karter Converse and Jeremy Smith. Freshmen Danny Greenhill, Zane Lopez and Ian Jacobson complete the squad. Miller is the Wildcats’ No. 1 player. “He’s just an all-around good athlete and he likes the pressure of being the No. 1 guy,” Jimison said. “He just kind of performs when he needs to. Mitchell has the potential to go low (in the NBC tournament). He’s averaging just under 80 in the tournaments we’ve played. He’s long off the tee and he is a good putter, and he’s consistent.” Cook is the No. 2 player, while Stevenson, Converse and Smith are getting their first taste of varsity competition. “I told Ian what his potential is,” Jimison said. “He’s very consistent right now. None of (the other seniors) had varsity experience before this year. Hunter is my four-guy and the other ones are coming along. They all have pretty good potential. They just kind of got thrown into the mix.” Jimison added that Greenhill, Lopez and Jacobson all have a strong upside. “Greenhill is very consistent and has a great short game,” the coach said. “He’s just phenomenal and he understands the game. Lopez and Jacobson have potential and we’re finally working on things with them. They’re the future. They’re my three guys who will be coming back next year.”
