Ozone treatment ensures safe water By Kelly J. Kaczala News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon water customers may notice improvements now that the city has completed its $15 million Harmful Algal Bloom infrastructure project, which will prevent toxins from getting into the water supply. “Everything is pretty much done,” Public Service Director Paul Roman told The Press last week. “I think things worked out great. We’re in pretty good shape. We’re very well prepared for anything now.” The ozone treatment of water promises to be very effective in treating microcystin, the toxic algae that caused a two day tap water ban in Toledo in 2014. Ozone treatment will also improve disinfection and treatment of other organics, as well as lower disinfection byproducts from chlorination, which will have the added benefit of improving the taste of drinking water. Though Oregon was not affected by the microcystin that shut down Toledo’s tap water, it has taken a very proactive approach to improving water quality in the last several years.

“

That was easily a $5 million savings in interest for the city.

The Woodmore school board will invite a member of the state legislature to the board’s October meeting to discuss the tax ramifications the Nexus pipeline will have on the school district, board president Sean Rizor, said Thursday. Rizor said the board is seeking more information about how much tax revenues the district will receive once the pipeline is operating; but board members are also concerned districts along the pipeline route will have their revenues from the pipeline offset by a reduction in state funding. “What we’re really focused on is what will happen once we get those funds. What we’re hearing is we as a school district, or any entity affected by the pipeline, once the funds start coming in will be reduced in funding from the state,” Rizor said. “It will probably happen in the next biennium budget after we start receiving the funds. We’ve had some people up in arms about us not discussing Nexus but there is not much to discuss because we haven’t been given documentation that says definitively what we’re going to get.” He said an invitation will be sent to State Senator Randy Gardner. In a 2016 report, Public Finance Resources estimates Woodmore schools will receive about $5.3 million over five years from the pipeline. A valuation of the pipeline, on which property taxes would be based, could also be challenged by the company in court, Rizor said. Jason Mumma, of the Ohio Department of Taxation, told The Press in May that 2020 would likely be the earliest districts receive tax revenues from the pipeline. “If the Nexus pipeline is placed in service this year (2018), initial tax revenues collected and disbursed by the county to the school districts will occur in February 2020, as based upon the assessed values we will certify in October of 2019. We do not know what the valuation will be until the company files the annual report with us, and the earliest that will be is a year from

The project consists of applying ozone to settled water and modifying filters for Biologic Active Filtration (BAF). Ozone breaks up contaminants into very small particles, which are so small that the city’s filtration system was not enough to properly remove those contaminants from the water. BAF, which goes hand in hand with ozone, is the use of natural microorganisms that removes the contaminants and further oxidizes and removes material from the water. Less chlorine Ozone treatment also allows lower

Trihalomethanes (TMHs), a byproduct of chlorine, which is used to disinfect the water. Some studies have shown TMHs, in higher concentrations, can cause adverse health effects, including cancer. “It’s another benefit,” said Roman. “We don’t have to use so much chlorine. We’re using less of it. We have less byproduct. We noticed those concentrations have dropped quite a bit. Another benefit is that taste and odor have improved. I think people already have noticed a difference in taste. It’s a better product. It was safe the way we treated it before, but now it’s even better.” The city received a $1.6 million grant from the Ohio Public Works Commission to help fund the project. A zero percent loan from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency funded the remainder, said Roman. “That was easily a $5 million savings in interest for the city,” he said. Expansion The city is also considering expanding the water treatment plant to provide for future commercial and industrial developContinued on page 2

ment, said Roman. “We’re looking to the future and city growth and whether we need to expand,� he said. “So we’re planning for that.� The city is also providing a waterline connection from Toledo to Oregon for the second power plant. “If we eventually expand the water plant, then we’ll provide the water to the second power plant. It would be a big project. We’ll go after Ohio Public Works Commission funding, and other low interest loans.� Roman said it is hard to predict when harmful algal blooms will erupt in the lake. “Sometimes you can physically see it in the lake and the toxins aren’t there. There are other times when you can’t see it, but the toxins are there. Nobody has a handle on it. Everyone has a theory. I believe the algae is worse when there are more rain events in the winter and spring, which removes more fertilizer from the surface of farm fields, which then goes straight into the lake. And that causes the problem. But I don’t know if it’s 100 percent true. That’s still the big debate as to what causes the elevated toxin amount in the lake,� he said. Besides Oregon, the water treatment plant serves Genoa, part of Northwood via the Northwestern Water and Sewer District, Harbor View and portions of Jerusalem Township.

Tim Murray, Gibsonburg superintendent, said the Sandusky County auditor’s office hadn’t received any information from the state as to when the tax revenues will start flowing. A discussion he had with the auditor in Medina County where four districts are to share pipeline tax revenues didn’t leave him any more confident. “He believes we will not see the majority of this money, and, if we do, our state funding will be reduced to offset the in-

GAF draws crowds The 53rd annual German-American Festival, held Friday, August 24, through Sunday, August 26 at Oak Shade Grove in Oregon, drew nearly 30,000 people. Sponsored by the seven German and Swiss-American Societies of Greater Toledo, the event once again featured fun for all ages thanks to the always-popular Old-World Style Bier and Wein Garten and the authentic Swiss stone throwing contest, while the continuous music on four different stages kept the festival-goers moving and grooving despite the hot temperatures. The younger crowd enjoyed the amusement rides, face painting and clowns that worked their way through the shaded festival grounds. Other popular attractions this year included the Photo Booth, complete with 1.8 million downloads on Friday and Saturday, along with the always-entertaining Hummel look-alike contest and the Beer Mile, which was new to the festival this year. No German-American Festival is complete without its culinary concoctions. Crowds consumed over 4,000 lbs. of red potatoes between the famous potato salad and potato pancakes, 3,300 lbs. of French fries, 2,400 schnitzel sandwiches, 1,775 funnel cakes and 1,400 lbs. of sauerkraut balls. Festival-goers consumed 974 kegs of beer that were tapped along with the 5,640 German Flag shots and the 5,940 shots of Jägermeister that were taken. The German-American Festival is the oldest and largest ethnic festival in the Toledo-area, and it would not be possible without the many great volunteers. For the second year in a row, representatives from

Levy up for replacement By Press Staff Writer The need for replacing a 1-mill, 10year levy on the Nov. 6 ballot that funds the Wood County Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services Board is apparent when one sees the scourge of the opiate problem and other related issues, Tom Clemons, the board’s executive director, told the Lake Township trustees last week. The replacement levy would generate about $3.26 million annually – a little more than a third of the ADAMHS budget for services. “This year we’re on pace to have the largest number of opiate deaths in Wood County,” Clemons told the trustees, and the use of Narcan, a medication used to block the effects of opioids, has saved about 80 people this year. After recording 21 suicides in 2016 and 11 last year, Wood County has seen 16 so far this year and is on pace to reach 24, he said, The board has increased the number of

persons trained to staff a crisis hotline and partnered with Unison Health to improve access to services, Clemons said. In all, about 30,000 county residents received treatment, recovery or prevention services last year, according to board figures. Counseling services are also being increased, Clemons said, and dialectical behavior therapy that emphasizes psychotherapy and groups skills training classes is being bolstered with more trained counselors and increased collaboration between the board, schools and Wood County Hospital. The board also relies on another levy of 1.6 mills that was renewed four years ago, Clemons said. He said replacing the expiring levy will cost the owner of property with a market valuation of $100,000 about $35 a year, an increase of about $8.64 from what the levy costs the property owner now.

Entomologist is offering a “freebie� By Press Staff Writer After a slow start during the relatively cool spring, ground-nesting yellow-jackets and bald or white-faced hornets have been busy building large hives this summer, according to Russell Lamp, an entomologist and owner of Integrated Pest Control. “They’re catching up. We’re finding some sizeable hornet nests up in the trees – basketball size and larger,� he said. Lamp is looking for the hornets and several species of the yellow-jackets to fill the demand for their venom which is used by pharmaceutical companies to manufacture a de-sensitizing vaccine. If nests are still active and haven’t been sprayed or damaged, Lamp will remove the nests for free. “We will probably be collecting between now and into October,� he said. “When you can see about 100 going in and out of the nest in about a minute’s time that’s when we’re interested in them.� A nest removed from a Millbury home last week was about the size of two basketballs. Lamp has been removing nests since 1980. The yellow-jackets are more common in areas with sandy soil, he said. Mulched areas and raised gardens are also popular nesting sites. The hornets usually grow to one-inch and have a distinct color pattern – the head, thorax, abdomen, and antennae are black and white. Females will defend nests aggressively with repeated stinging. Lamp says the hornets are beneficial in that they eat mosquitoes, flies and yellow jackets. Queens that were born and fertilized at the end of the previous season begin a new colony. After selecting a location for its nest, the queen begins building it, laying the first eggs and feeding the first larvae, which become workers. They then assume the work of expanding the nest. To contact Lamp, call 419-836-3710.

History Spotlight by Larry Michaels

“

Their names are like a street map of the East Side...

“

On Sept. 18, 1902, the pioneers of East Toledo had their last great gathering. The occasion, held at Navarre Park, was to celebrate the 100th birthday of Elijah J. Woodruff. He truly was an East Side patriarch, and it was common for people to measure the history of East Toledo in terms of his life span. Woodruff was born early in Thomas Jefferson’s presidency, was a teenager when Napoleon met his Waterloo, was nearly 60 when the Civil War began, and yet he was still alive to welcome the arrival of the 20th century. All told, Elijah Woodruff’s life spanned the terms of 24 Presidents. He was born in Watertown, Connecticut, in 1802. He first came to Toledo in 1833, again in 1836, and settled on the East Side in 1837. As a young man, he worked as a timber contractor and farmed on the Bissell land along the river. He was soon appointed the first Postmaster of Utah, as East Toledo was then called, by President Martin Van Buren. This was not an easy job in those early days, and Woodruff often had to bring the mail across the river in a row boat. He then established one of the first ferry businesses on the Maumee. In 1852, he built a fine home, now gone, on Starr Avenue, of walnut timbers and perpendicular weather boarding. The home was moved in the early 1900s to Garfield Place, when Euclid Avenue Methodist Church was built on that site.

Two years later, in 1854, Woodruff survived the cholera epidemic that killed about onethird of the people living east of the river at that time. Also, in the 1850s, before the Civil War, Woodruff’s house was on the Underground Railroad through the East Side. He hid many runaway slaves in his home and helped them escape across the river and to Canada. During those same years, he would let some of the last Native Americans in the area sleep by his fireside on cold winter nights. Woodruff held many public offices over the years in East Toledo and Oregon Township, and knew most of the early settlers and prominent citizens. Their names are like a street map of the East Side, in-

Writer asks: Is the spirit of 1968 coming back to life? By Robert C. Koehler I was a hippie/bicycle delivery boy living in San Francisco when the Democratic National Convention was held in Chicago 50 years ago, so I absorbed the chaos, the police riot, from half a continent away, but I knew with absolute certainty that the nation was changing and I was part of it. We were in the violent spasm of transition. How long would it last? MLK and RFK, as they called for peace and sanity and civil rights for all, had just been assassinated. This was the God of War, turning its vengeance inward. A year earlier I had been part of the march on the Pentagon. At one point a group of soldiers charged us as we stood on the grounds next to the building and I got clonked in the head by a rifle butt. Later, as we sat in, I felt with sudden certainty that Lyndon Johnson was going to emerge from the Pentagon and declare an end to the Vietnam War. Uh...that didn’t happen. Instead, I eventually just got up and left. When I returned to Kalamazoo, Michigan, where I was in college, the first thing I did was drop out. Apparently I wanted to remove myself entirely from the infrastructure or normal, middle-class existence and join others in creating something new. As I read about the chaos in Chicago at the convention — the thousands of cops and National Guardsmen and U.S. troops storming the protesters, whacking them with their batons, throwing them into paddy wagons, as the pro-war consensus (epitomized by the grimace on the face of Chicago’s mayor, Richard J. Daley) held tight to the reins of power — I felt my-

Guest Editorial self quietly retreat back into my own life. The “movement” wasn’t going to remake America. Or rather, idealism all by itself wasn’t going to bring about the world I had envisioned with such certainty as I sat on the steps of the Pentagon. I didn’t surrender my idealism; I didn’t turn into a cynic. But I shifted my focus to my own life and returned to school. Half a century later . . . I gape in awe at how little has changed. “The reality is that the war has created the world’s worst humanitarian catastrophe today,” Moustafa Bayuoumi wrote recently in The Guardian. “Three-quarters of the population, some 22 million Yemenis, require humanitarian assistance and protection. About 8.4 million people hang on the brink of starvation and another 7 million lie malnourished. Since 2015, more than 28,000 people have been killed or injured, and many thousands more have died from causes exacerbated by war, such as a cholera epidemic that has afflicted more than a million people and claimed over 2,300 lives. At least one child dies every 10 minutes from causes linked to the war, according to the United Nations.” Actually, something has changed — the opposite of what I had anticipated in 1967, as I sat on the steps of the Pentagon, or in 1968, as I silently cheered the protest-

Quality matters in job market Guest Editorial

By Jim Hightower

It’s practically unanimous: Nine out of 10 establishment economists agree that America’s solid job growth and the low unemployment rate truly make ours “The Land of Opportunity.” So why, they wonder aloud, is the State of Labor today so morose? Well, start with all those jobs. Quantity is one thing, but quality is what really matters. As Jesse Jackson has pointed out, even slaves had jobs. While not in slavery, millions of Americans today — from Walmart employees to school teachers — are paid so little that they have to patch together two or three jobs each to eke out a bare-bones living. In fact, major corporations have made poverty pay central to their profit strategy, with giants like Amazon, McDonald’s, and Walmart issuing such puny paychecks that their workers have to rely on food stamps and other public programs to make ends meet. That’s a corporate subsidy of roughly $150 billion a year taken from us taxpayers. Miserly pay, however, is only one cause of the stunning fact that more than half of American workers now say they’re looking to leave their current jobs. The deeper issue is the overall lack of respect for workaday

ers demanding that the Democratic Party become a party of peace. The war in Yemen, which the U.S. is making possible with billions of dollars in weapons sales to the Saudi coalition, is barely even news. Neither are the wars — at least seven of them — in which the U.S. is directly participating, including Iraq (15 years and counting) and Afghanistan (17 years and counting). I fear the forces the antiwar protesters were confronting 50 years ago have made a shift in keeping with their deepest interests: not to “win” the wars but simply to make sure they continue. Even Donald Trump was shocked by this: “When Trump announced...that he was ordering a new approach to the war,” the Associated Press reported last March about Afghanistan, “he said he realized ‘the American people are weary of war without victory.’ He said his instinct was to pull out, but that after consulting with aides, he decided to seek ‘an honorable and enduring outcome.’ He said that meant committing more resources to the war, giving commanders in the field more authority and staying in Afghanistan for as long as it takes.” In other words, he was pulled back into line — that is, back into lyin’. Glory, glory, hallelujah. In America, clichés rule. We may bomb children, and (even more to the point) manufacture and sell the bombs that take out school buses, etc., etc., etc., but we still pull out our clichés about freedom and honor and such, stale as they may be, on a moment’s notice. America’s journey to its Orwellian present-day reality, in which wars are endlessly expanding background noise (as opposed to news), essentially began in the tumultuous late ’60s, when peace consciousness had seized much of the nation. While LBJ did not declare the end of the Vietnam War, the war eventually did end — in defeat, dishonor and disgrace, leaving behind a shattered country (more than million dead, an environment despoiled with

PRESS The

Agent Orange and unexploded ordnance) and countless U.S. vets spiritually and physically wounded. The American public was weary not of war without victory but of war itself. This was called Vietnam Syndrome, and it was profoundly troubling to the political status quo. It took several decades, but Militarized America did achieve its one and only postWorld War II victory. It defeated Vietnam Syndrome. Step one was eliminating the draft, which freed the public from any personal risk — and thus, any real stake — in future wars, leaving only a poverty draft to fill the ranks, and who cares about them? Ronald Reagan was forced to fight proxy wars against the commies in Central America, but his successor, George H.W. Bush, declared a victory over Vietnam Syndrome after Gulf War I. A decade later, his son, as we know, launched wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, which, having accomplished none of their alleged aims, nonetheless continue with no end in sight, two presidents later. Victory no longer matters. A seemingly rational mission no longer matters. Clichés and a bloated military budget are enough. Fifty years ago, the country was in tumult about the war in Vietnam and millions of people wanted to reshape the Democratic Party into a party of peace. The War Machine, which owned (owns) both parties, held fast and tough. Billy clubs won. The media surrendered. But we the people have not surrendered. We were outmaneuvered, gerrymandered, removed from the voting roster, but we have not surrendered. Is the spirit of ’68 coming back to life in the Trump era, as evinced by an upsurge in progressive electoral victories? The War God is ruthless and clever and will not give up. Neither should we.

people. After all, workers can see in their daily job experiences that the Powers That Be — from corporate chieftains to political leaders — consider employees a cost to be cut, not an asset to advance. Working stiffs see the continued offshoring of their jobs and deliberate decimation of their rights and union bargaining power. They see leaders of both political parties with their hats in hand for corporate dollars, while rigging the rules to gut everything from overtime pay to health care. And they see the power elite rushing to a robot economy that will leave them and their children out in the cold. Labor Day is over. Now America needs an all-out labor rebellion.

St. Jude Dream Home Toledo event a true giveaway By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com Imagine the thrill of hearing your name called as the winner in a drawing for a brand-new home. A dream come true, right? It certainly was for Dave and Dianne Jaeger, the winners of the 2018 St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway. But not because they were looking to move. The fundraiser for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital turned out to be a giveaway in every sense of the word when the Oregon couple opted to turn their good fortune into a way to help St. Jude in its mission to serve families facing the nightmare of childhood cancer or other life-threatening illnesses. The Jaegers decided to give the house – a 2,400-square-foot home valued at $315,000 – back to the hospital. “Winning was really a windfall,” said Dave, owner of American Enterprises, Inc., in Oregon. “I have a nice house, and I really didn’t need the money, so it was the thing to do.” “We donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital every year, so we thought this year we’d just buy tickets for the Dream Home,” he said, adding that he bought 30 of the $100 tickets for the Dream Home Giveaway when they went on sale in May. “We have four absolutely perfect grandchildren; we’re very thankful for that. We really feel blessed that we can help families who are not as fortunate,” Jaeger said. “Nobody has ever paid a bill at St. Jude – we’re happy to be able to help with that.” “Many people are drawn to the fact that St. Jude families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food, which means that family can solely focus on saving their child’s life,” said Meghan Behen, a development specialist at St. Jude’s, Greater Detroit Area. “That’s huge, considering treatment for the most common type of leukemia can cost about $400,000 or more,” she said.

Dave and Dianne Jaeger, with WTOL meteorologist Chris Vickers, at the Waterville home the couple won in the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway. The Jaegers donated the house back to St. Jude to help in the hospital’s mission of helping families dealing with childhood cancer or other life-threatening illnesses. (Photo courtesy of WTOL) Surprise? “From the time I bought the tickets, I had a very strong feeling that we were going to win,” Jaeger said. “And we knew from the get-go what we were going to do if we did win.” On the day of the drawing, Aug. 16, Dave and Dianne were planning to go out to dinner. “We sat down to watch TV for a bit, and I fell asleep, so I missed the actual announcement on Channel 11 when the ticket was pulled.” Dianne, however was watching. Jaeger awoke to his wife screaming, “Dave, you won the house!” “They said on the air that they were going to call us, so we waited until they did, and then we drove to Waterville, where the house is located,” Jaeger said. “When we got there, they had to come out and get us because the subdivision is new and wasn’t

on our navigation.” The Jaegers were greeted by Behen; WTOL meteorologist Chris Vickers; members of the Buckeye Real Estate Group team, who constructed the house, and excited onlookers. “When we walked up, Chris Vickers asked if we were surprised to hear we’d won,” Jaeger said. “I told him about my gut feeling that I might win. “Then I said, ‘But you’re going to very surprised – we’re going to give St. Jude the house back,’” Jaeger said. “They couldn’t believe it.” “It was amazing,” Behen said. “There was not a dry eye in the house when Dave announced they were giving the house back.” “To say that this doesn’t happen often would be an understatement; it’s happened

only three times in the 28-year history Dream Home Giveaway,” she said. The logistics are being worked out for the home to be sold, with the proceeds going to St. Jude’s, Behen said. “The Dream Home Giveaway takes place in over 40 markets throughout the country,” she said. “In total, the Giveaway raises over $400 million a year for the hospital – which goes a very long way. “In every market, we commission a builder – in Toledo, it was Buckeye Real Estate Group, who was absolutely amazing,” Behen said. “Owner Mike White and his team went above and beyond to make this possible, commissioning subcontractors to donate time and resources to the Dream Home and getting this down to an almost zero-dollar build. “It speaks volumes, not only about them, but also the Toledo community,” she said. “Last year, our first year of Dream Home in the Toledo market, we sold out of tickets and raised over $700,000 for the hospital,” Behen said. “This year, ticket sales started May 14 and we sold out June 22 – that’s extremely quick; not many other markets do it that fast. “Ticket sales raised $750,000,” she said. “Those proceeds, coupled with the eventual sale of the home, will raise over $1 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital this year.” Behen said she attributes Toledo’s ongoing support for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital not only to the community’s generosity, but also because of the legacy of Toledo’s own Danny Thomas, who founded the hospital, located in Memphis Tennessee. “Danny Thomas’ sense of charity still has a big influence on this community,” she said. “People often mention him at the Dream Home events. “It’s amazing to see that sense of community existing around his vision to see than no child dies in the dawn of life,” Behen said. In addition to the Jaegers, there were nine other prize winners in the St. Jude Giveaway.

Annual Andy’s Army Walk honors beloved Golden The annual Andy’s Army Walk will be held Sunday, Sept. 16 at the W.W. Knight Center, 29530 White Rd., Perrysburg. The inspiration for Andy’s Army was a dog named Andy, adopted by Sue Bechtel from Golden Retriever Rescue Resource, Inc. (GRRR) in 2008. In the summer of 2009, Andy was diagnosed with canine cancer.

All proceeds raised at the Andy’s Army Walk will benefit canine cancer research. The event will include a DJ, a blessing of the animals, a bake sale, vendors, basket raffles and a free “tail” gate party. The location, which features ponds, winding trails, a lodge and ample parking. The registration fee is $15 per person or $30 per family. Teams of seven or more people can register for $10 per person.

Health dept. seeking feedback Wood County Health Department is asking for feedback on a recent six-week campaign promoting the importance of physical activity. The health department is asking people to complete a quick survey to help evaluate the effectiveness of messages used during the campaign. The survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/G5MS8X2. Over six weeks, social media posts and promotions encouraged people to get more exercise using existing resources such as parks, bike trails and community events. The health department now lists information about these resources at WoodCountyHealth.org/activity. Anyone interested in participating in a new group being organized to promote physical activity and nutrition in Wood County, may email healthdept@co.wood.oh.us. The mission of Wood County Health Department is to prevent disease, promote healthy lifestyles and protect the health of everyone in Wood County. Its Community Health Center provides comprehensive medical services for men, women and children. All patients are welcome, including uninsured or underinsured clients, regardless of their ability to pay; most third-party insurance is accepted. For more info, visit WoodCountyHealth.org.

This support group is also appropriate for pediatric cancer survivors who are currently within the group’s age range.

Besides offering support for issues related to treatment and survivorship, other topics may include how being a young cancer survivor affects dating, work, and parenting.

Experts talk about suicide As kids head back to school this year, many of them will be struggling. According to national statistics, we lose more than 2,000 children and teens per year to suicide. Experts say parents who check in regularly with their child could have a lifesaving conversation. “A conversation about depression or suicide is going to be difficult, but you can have it without putting a young person at risk and it can be very helpful,� says John Ackerman, PhD, clinical psychologist and suicide prevention coordinator for the Center for Suicide Prevention and Research at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. “For the young person, having this discussion can be incredibly relieving. It is a powerful opportunity to understand that being emotionally open, especially about thoughts of suicide, can lead to healing and connection rather than shame and isolation.�

“

It is not hopeless, and there are lots of ways loved ones can help youth get support when they need it.

According to suicide prevention experts, asking a child directly about suicidal thoughts is usually the best thing a parent can do to help their child open up about their emotions. Even if their child is not struggling with suicide or depression, parents can model for their child that it is good to talk about serious emotional concerns with trusted adults and important to reach out to friends to have these conversations, too. According to Dr. Ackerman, if your child’s friend tells them they are feeling suicidal, your child should tell their friend that they care about them and acknowledge that they are hurting. After their friend knows they are being listened to and supported, the next step is to ask specifically if they are thinking about suicide or have tried to kill themselves. This should be done in a compassionate way free of judgement. If they say “yes� or even “I’m not sure,� a trusted adult should be told right away. Never leave someone alone if they are showing warning signs of suicide. “This is a conversation that saves lives,� said Dr. Ackerman, who says his goal is to identify kids before they have a crisis or go years without treatment. Statistics from the National Institutes of Mental Health indicate that half of mental health issues start by age 14. Tips for parents, families and teachers include: Do not wait for a crisis. A good opportunity to talk about suicide or mental health issues is when things are going well. Check in regularly and ask your child directly how they are doing and if they have ever had thoughts about ending their life. Look for changes in mood or behavior that might be a warning sign that something is wrong. For example, if the child seems really down, they stop doing things they normally enjoy, or you notice significant changes in eating or sleeping. “It is not hopeless, and there are lots of ways loved ones can help youth get support when they need it,� said Dr. Ackerman. This involves timely treatment, building connections, helping other people know what to say when a family member or friend is struggling and having a safety plan in place to help get through a crisis. If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273TALK (1-800-273-8255), or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting “START� to 741-741. The Center for Suicide Prevention and Research is a partnership with Big Lots Behavioral Health Services and the Center for Innovation in Pediatric Practice in The Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

NW Ohio towns turning teal for ovarian cancer awareness Once again, the Ovarian Cancer Connection (OCC) is turning area towns teal to raise awareness about ovarian cancer. Earlier this month, “Get Real About Teal” campaign volunteers got busy and tied teal ribbons on roadways and town centers with the goal of getting people talking about ovarian cancer. The ribbons will remain in place throughout September, which is National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. “We certainly always appreciate the support of our local communities who grant approval for us to put these reminder ribbons up year after year,” said Gini Steinke, executive director of OCC. Since its inception in 2005 as the former National Ovarian Cancer Coalition of NW Ohio & SE Michigan, the organization has been committed to raising awareness about ovarian cancer across the region and providing education and financial support for women with ovarian cancer and their families. “There is no early detection test for ovarian cancer; that’s why we need women and men to be aware of the symptoms,” Steinke said. Ovarian cancer is often referred to the “silent cancer” because its symptoms are often subtle and are often misdiagnosed. Symptoms may include: • Unusual fatigue, backaches • Persistent gastrointestinal complaints such as gas, nausea, indigestion • Abnormal or postmenopausal bleeding • Change in bowel habits • Abdominal swelling and/or pain • Bloating and/or a feeling of fullness • Frequency and/or urgency of urination • Unexplained weight loss or gain A women’s chance of survival is better if the cancer is found early. A Pap test does not detect ovarian cancer, it tests for cervical cancer.

The event will be held Saturday, Sept. 8 from 8 a.m.-noon at Connor Park, 2220 Tiffin Rd. In addition to the race, there will be entertainment, a silent auction, a bake sale, race rally and more. Register at www.eventbrite. com, and search Teal to Toe 5K. The 14th Annual Ellen Jackson Ovarian Cancer Walk will be presented Saturday, Sept. 15 from 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at the Eleanor Dana Cancer Center at the University of Toledo Medical Center, 1325 Conference Center (on the campus of UT/MUO – Glendale Road entrance side). Register at www.eventbrite.com, and search Ellen Jackson for the link to sign up. Every Sunday in September, Granite City Food & Brewery in the Shops at Fallen Timbers in Maumee is hosting a fundraiser supporting the OCC. Twenty percent of the total tab will be donated to OCC for those who mention they’re there supporting the OCC, or present the electronic flyer found on the OCC Facebook page.

Inspirational Message of the Week: Dangers of Social Media A recent survey by the Royal Society for Public Health suggests that social media can be bad for our mental health. Anyone who has ever spent time on Facebook or Instagram probably knows that the images and messages there can make you feel insecure, envious and inferior. Cases of cyberbullying and other forms of online shaming or intimidation are too well-known for anyone to doubt this possible hazard. The survey of approximately 1500 people aged 14- 24 found that social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram increased feelings of anxiety in over half of the respondents. Seven out of ten of the respondents said that Instagram made them feel worse about their body image and 2/3 of them said that Facebook made cyber-bullying worse. Those who spent more than

two hours per day using social media were most at risk, and the researchers are calling for measures aimed at educating users on how to use social media in a positive way. We all desire to connect with others in a positive way, and while social media can facilitate this, it can also make it very easy to harm others. So use social media, but use it wisely, and always only for good. “Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone.”—2 Timothy 2: 22-24 NIV

Flyers, Comets looking for upper hand in league play By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com You can bet that whenever neighborhood rivals Genoa and Lake face off on the gridiron, it’s going to be a battle. Both teams started off the season 2-0 and are hoping to compete for a Northern Buckeye Conference championship and spot in the playoffs. And, whoever wins their matchup, which opens the league slate, will have an upper hand in the battle for the conference title. The Flyers and Comets will contend at Genoa this Friday. The Flyers opened by defeating Northwest Ohio Athletic League member Patrick Henry (20-13) and Lemoyne Road rival Northwood (36-22). In the win over the Patriots, Dawson Delventhal, who was 11-of-12 passing for 209 yards, scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 5-yard scamper with 7:02 to play. He also connected with Harry Jackson on a 51-yard scoring strike and Scott Mackiewicz, who caught four passes for 109 yards, scored on a 21-yard run. Against the Rangers, Lake rallied from a 15-point deficit to win, scoring the game’s final 23 points. Delventhal was 11-of-24 passing for 173 yards and three touchdowns and Jackson caught four passes for 82 yards and three scores. Coach Mark Emans says the defense did a “magnificent job,” forcing five turnovers. “We’re still trying to find a defensive and offensive identity. We beat two pretty good programs but we haven’t played our best football yet. We’ve come out on top and still won,” said Emans. “We’d like to put together four quarters of good football and that’s yet to come.” The Comets opened with wins over Columbus Bishop Ready (28-0) and Celestial Ball rival Oak Harbor (34-14). In the win over the Silver Knights, Daniel Novotney carried the ball 20 times for 146 yards and a touchdown and Jake Plantz completed 7-of-12 passes for 111 yards and added a score on the ground, plus he returned an interception for six points. Drew Bench helped to pace the passing attack by catching three passes for 56 yards. In the win over the Rockets, Plantz had a hand in three touchdowns, passing for one, running for another and on defense got his second pick-six in two games, returning an interception 59 yards for a score late in the fourth quarter. Jake Bradfield helped to pace the rushing attack by carrying the ball eight times for 116 yards and two touchdowns. “I thought we came out in week one and played pretty well. We had some mistakes, but I thought we had a good intensity, and I was really happy. You wondered how well they’re going to play conditioning-wise,” said Genoa coach Paul Patterson. “Against Oak Harbor, it was a rivalry game, emotions were high on both sides, it was intense, (and) we had some guys get dinged up with injuries and we had to (replace them). We battled through some injuries, but you can’t complain when you’re 2-0.” Plantz is pleased with the way his team has progressed on both sides of the ball. “I think we’re off to a great start. I think the offense is playing well and the defense is playing very well,” said the

I’m excited moving forward to see how we’re going to do. “We have to continue to work hard and come ready to work every week. We can’t overlook anyone. I think if we continue to work like we have we’ll do some major things,” Plantz continued. Plantz has praise for Lake’s program, too. “They’re a well-coached football team with good athletes,” he said. “Their coaches always have them ready for us. It’s always a battle when we play each other.”

Neighborhood rivals Located just over five miles from one another, Lake and Genoa are natural geographic rivals. Both have an experienced coach and their communities must love football, filling up their respective stadiums every Friday night. “They’re right down the road — it gets

kids from both sides fired up to play. It’s a fun, close rivalry,” Patterson said. Lake and Genoa have been in the same conference since 1996, making for annual games against one another, plus they were in the Northern Lakes League together in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. Amidst the rivalry, both coaches have great respect for one another. “I think it starts at the top. Coach Emans is a veteran coach who has won a state championship (at Wauseon) and been around high school football for a long time. He’s done a great job with the kids he has,” said Patterson. “They’re always going to be sound offensively and defensively and make sure you’re going to have to be sound.” Emans, an Eastwood graduate and former Bowling Green State University standout at linebacker, has a similar respect for Genoa. “I think (their success) comes from their kids, their culture — they have a very good culture in Genoa athletics from football to baseball to wrestling. They expect winning and they carry themselves like winners,” Emans said. “I think both teams always give each other their best game. They’ve gotten us the past couple years. It’s good football, clean football. Coach Patterson does an outstanding job with discipline and playing the game the right way. I have a lot of respect for them. It’s just a good, clean rivalry.” Last year, Genoa defeated Lake, 29-7, behind running back Noah Edwards’ standout performance. He rushed for 176 yards and three touchdowns and helped pace an attack that accumulated 413 yards of total offense.

A young Stritch team seeks to be runner-up no more By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com A year ago, the Cardinal Stritch girls soccer team finished as runner-up in two leagues — the Toledo Area Athletic Conference and Northwest Ohio High School Soccer League. They only had one loss in each conference, so Coach Dan Roggelin believes it just takes a little bit more to get a championship. He has seven returning letter winners, including two seniors, one junior and four sophomores to help him get that done. “Considering how young we are and with 12 players, we will fight every game,” Roggelin said. “We are conditioning to be able to play full games with limited substitutions. The team is working very hard supporting each other in the hunt for a league championship.” Last year, the Cardinals were 8-73 overall, including 3-1-2 in the TAAC and 2-1-1 in the NWOHSSL. Stritch tied Northwood 1-1 and lost to the Rangers 3-1 in TAAC play. Ottawa Hills beat the Cardinals 1-0 and the two teams drew a 1-1 tie in their other league match last year. In the TAAC this year, the Green Bears and Rangers look like the favorites again, says Roggelin. “I think that Ottawa Hills will be the team to beat. They won the TAAC last year with very few seniors. Northwood is always a tough competitor as well,” Roggelin said. Roggelin considers his team’s youth a strength, because they also have team chemistry. So far, against non-league competition, Stritch has gotten off to a rough start, losing to Central Catholic, 7-0, CoryRawson, 10-2, and Delta 3-2 before getting their first win over Toledo Christian, 4-2, to take the Bird Cage Trophy. “They are willing to work very hard knowing we will play teams with larger numbers that will try to wear them out. We will have to play smart and not run with other teams but out think and utilize the passing game to get out in front,” Roggelin said. “Anytime you have the opportunity to coach a young team with the stick together attitude that we see with this team, it is fun to coach them and see the day to day improvement of the players. We see a team that is anxious to see what they can do and learn along the way.” The Stritch coach adds that the low roster numbers present one problem — he says “any injuries could be devastating.” For Roggelin, being the coach at Stritch is a passion. He is entering his 19th season as coach there with an accumulated record of 107-152-27, and he has coached nowhere else. His teams won NWOSSL championships in 2006 and 2014 and three consecutive TAAC titles from 2013-15. Even with five league titles and an

(Press photo by Doug Karns/CardinalStritch.org) overall 19-record under .500, the boys and girls soccer programs and opportunity to play might not even be there without his help. “Seeing the Cardinal Stritch soccer program grow to where we are now — we started the girls program 19 years ago and have enjoyed many successes,” Roggelin said. “We started the boys program 16 years ago and they have grown into a successful program as well. I have always pushed academics to the team. I take a lot of pride that the girls soccer team last year posted a 4.0-plus GPA. All while fighting to the last game to win a TAAC Championship. We tied that last game against Ottawa Hills to take second. Well done.” Plenty of talent returns Key returnees from last year’s squad include senior midfielder/forward Katelyn Kane, junior goalkeeper Amber Daly and sophomore center midfielder Samantha Boraginna. “Sammy is strong at the center midfield position and seldom gets pushed off of the play,” Roggelin said. Boraginna, who had six goals, two assists, 27 interceptions, nine steals and took five of the team’s corner kicks, was second team All-TAAC. Kane, who had four goals, three assists,

14 interceptions, 12 steals and took 46 corner kicks, and Daly were both honorable mention all-league. In addition, Roggelin says Kane is one of his most improved players coming into the season. “Kate has great skill and vision on the field,” Roggeln said. “We need her to find her voice on the field to direct younger players. We are looking for Kate to continue to lead this team and direct younger players on and off the field.” Daly played in the last 10 games last season, getting 127 saves and allowing just 24 goals, with nine of them coming in a 9-0 tournament loss to Archbold — after Stritch defeated Delta 2-1 to open Division III sectional play. Daly had to sit out the first half of the regular season due to the state association’s transfer rule and during that time Stritch suffered three losses, including 4-1 to Cory-Rawson, 6-2 to Bowling Green and the 3-1 league loss to Northwood. “Amber does a great job as the field general to guide the defense,” Roggelin said. Overall, Roggelin likes where his front line players are at, especially since sophomore Allison Fellman looks to be one of his most improved players. “Allison Fellman and (sophomore) Kristina Conroy will lead the attack up front,” Roggelin said. “Allison worked very hard during the off season and during track to build her core strength and should be

hard to push off the ball this year. Kristina is driven and flat out fast up front. They should complement each other well this year.” Roggelin’s defense will be led by a sophomore, Samantha Turner, also a player who has shown signs of improvement since last year. “Sam will lead a very young defense that will consist of one senior, Caroline Sass (four-year player), Madyson Ejhinger a first year sophomore, and Stephanie Alverez, a freshman,” Roggelin said. “Sam has learned our defense and has increased her strength and speed. As a sophomore she will have to lead the defense — a job I am confident that she can handle.” Roggelin has some first-year talent that he is expecting to contribute, also. “(Freshman) Kylie Kane has very good skills and intelligence of the game and she will fill a role as a center midfielder. (Sophomore) Madyson Ejhinger shows a drive on the defense as a first-year player — she just fits there, giving 100 percent. “(Freshman) Keera Garmon can play anywhere on the field. She has a great work ethic and will bounce between defense and midfield until we solidify our team. (Freshman) Keegan Taylor will help us both in the midfields and forward positions. She just shows up every day with a smile and works very hard.”

he leads by example.” Stevens is also high on Wagner, a talented freshman. “At first he was a little shy because he

didn’t want to show off or anything like that,” Stevens said. “He’s got the basic fundamentals of the game down. In two years, with a little bit more coaching, he could be one of the better players here. He has an understanding of the game and he’s willing to learn. I want players who are there to learn and not just go through the motions.” The Rangers started getting together for workouts the first week of May. Official practice began over a month ago. “We started off going over fundamentals, tactics, positions and developing plays,” Stevens said. “At this point, we’re a lot better off than we were three months ago. They were trying to figure me out as their coach, like ‘Is this someone we can trust and have our back?’ As a team, they’re becoming one. They’re hanging together off the field and developing friendships off the field.”

The season did not start off well for coach Dylan Stevens and Northwood’s first-year boys soccer team. It wasn’t a loss, mind you, but Stevens lamented the fact that the Rangers’ inaugural opponent, Maumee Valley, postponed its game against Northwood. It turned out that the Rangers’ first-ever game would be two days later against the Ottawa Hills’ junior varsity team. That was an even bigger challenge. Last year, the Green Bears’ varsity lost the Division III state championship game, 1-0, and finished with a 20-1-2 record, and this year the Ottawa Hills varsity is ranked No. 1 in the D-III state coaches poll after winning their first four games. So, even playing the JV team was a daunting task for a first-year program. “Unfortunately, we took a 5-0 loss the first game against Ottawa Hills. They had a very disciplined team, however, for it being our first game ever, I thought we played pretty well,” Stevens said. “I was not upset with my players’ effort. “So far, that’s the only game we’ve played. We were scheduled to play Bowsher (Wednesday) and it ended up getting cancelled due to the heat.” Stevens, 25, played forward at Pickerington Central High School and Shawnee State University in Portsmouth, Ohio. This is his first season as a high school head coach, and he said the Rangers will play 10 games this fall. “Being a first-year program, we’re mainly playing other schools’ jayvee teams,” Stevens said. “We’ll probably do that the first two years, depending on how this first year goes. I didn’t know how many players we were going to have, and I don’t know anything about the teams we’re playing. We will take a year to see the competition we’re playing. If we’re beating teams 8-0 or 9-0, maybe it’s time to take the next step to the varsity level next year.” Northwood’s first boys soccer team consists of seniors John Fisher, Donald Boisselle and Ryan Rosenbrook; junior Wayne Smith; sophomores Logan Urbanyi, Mitchell Hurley, Austin Schroeder, Bryant Ramirez, Davonte Sauer, Armondo Rodriguez, Logan McDermott, Isaac Hoffer and Welden Hannum; and freshmen John Hagemann, Kyle Wagner and Chris Brown. Schroeder, Ramirez and Wagner are all midfielders. “Austin is one of the most technically sound players I’ve seen in high school,” Stevens said. “In Columbus, with the top Division I schools, he would be a strong contender. He understands the game and he’s had proper coaching in the past.

‘Oregon Clay’ perfect fit for first-year volleyball coach By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com

Clay High School volleyball team in action. (Press photo by Russ Lytle/Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP) her. Alivia is quiet, but deadly. She’s about 6-1 and has really stepped up. She’s grown as a player and is becoming confident at the net. She’s probably my most improved player from the beginning of the season.” The Eagles’ other starters are sophomore DS Mya Mullins, sophomore setter Jaiden Karrick and sophomore libero/DS Kendall Seimet. “Mya is a little firecracker,” Wagoner said. “She’s my shortest player, and for being as young as she is, she’s still trying to feel her way on the varsity team. Coming from the freshman team to varsity is more

fast-paced. She’s probably my hardest worker in the middle of the back row.” Wagoner called Karrick the quarterback of the team. “We run a 5-1 (offense), so she’s the only setter who comes in and plays the front row and back row,” the coach said. “Technically, she is my only all-around player and she’s a competitor. She hates to lose. Kendall has a lot of fun and has a voice in the back row. When she doesn’t talk, the team’s not as on. She’s another little firecracker back there.” Junior outside hitter Sydney Meinke

rotates in and out of the lineup and has “a good upside,” according to Wagoner, who added that her goal is to keep the program rolling with athletes from Oregon. “I would love to see progress and have them stay here at Clay instead of going to (other) conference schools,” Wagoner said. “There is so much talent here and we want to continue forming a winning program, so hopefully we can keep the girls here. I’ve never coached a team where the kids are so positive and united and focused. I’m really excited to watch this program build off these girls.”

The

First-year Clay volleyball coach Carrie Wagoner had her priorities in order. She was the head volleyball coach at Whitmer for three years, but she decided to give up that position in order to be able to watch her daughter, Meghan, start on Central Catholic’ varsity team as a freshman. Wagoner is also the owner/director of Toledo Dynamic Volleyball. “This is our third season (at TDV),” Wagoner said. “I have a lot of Oregon kids in my program.” Clay got off to a 3-3 start this season and opened its Three Rivers Athletic Conference schedule with a win over Whitmer. The Eagles also defeated Ashland and Central Catholic in a non-conference match. Asked what she likes about what she’s seen from the Eagles so far, Wagoner said the squad is “very motivated.” “They’re fun girls and we are a very talented team,” she said. “We have a lot of athletic girls, but we’re young. My back row and center are all sophomores. I only have three seniors and the rest are juniors, and I carry 13 on the team. I think we’re going to be a force to be reckoned with.” The Eagles are led by junior outside hitter Hannah Blausey, a first-team AllTRAC pick last season. “She’s probably our most dominant player,” Wagoner said. “She’s just really good. She is one of my captains and she has a great attitude. She’s a go-getter who keeps the other girls positive. The girls feed off her.” Senior Madison Hornyak plays rightside hitter and is also a captain. “She encourages everybody,” Wagoner said. “She keeps everybody motivated on the court, and she is kind of like my cheerleader on the sideline when she’s not in.” Olivia Henneman-Dallape, a 6-foot-2 junior, plays middle hitter along with junior Alivia Rew. “Olivia has a really good spirit about her and a lot of energy,” Wagoner said. “She’s super positive and has nothing bad to say about anybody. Just a good kid and a nice player. Any coach would love to have
