Woman needs help saving her dog In Northwood, East Toledo, Rossford and Perrysburg, Wind Bearheart and her dogs Chance, a Husky, and Grizzly, a Newfoundland, have become de facto celebrities. The three have been seen around town, Bearheart on her sled with wheels, being pulled by her dogs as she ran errands, visited friends and went sightseeing. Bearheart, who is disabled and does not drive, has counted on her furry friends for transportation as well as companionship. Now, after a serious car accident, Bearheart finds herself trying to raise money to save one of her dogs. On Tuesday, January 22, Bearheart was a passenger in a vehicle traveling back to Northwood after visiting with her son, Shane Baumgartner, a paramedic/firefighter at Station No. 9 in Whitehouse. The car that contained Bearheart and her dogs was traveling down County Road D, in Fulton County, when a vehicle on County Road 3 broadsided the car, which was totaled. Bearheart was airlifted to The University of Toledo Medical Center in serious condition. “I had head injuries, broken bones in

my face, and injured ribs,” Bearheart said. “I have to see a trauma doctor and a plastic surgeon.” At home and in pain, Bearheart is more concerned with Grizzly’s injuries. According to Bearheart, Chance was taken to the fire department in Whitehouse, where he was cared for by her son and his fellow firefighters. Although sore, Chance came out of the accident relatively unscathed. But not so for Grizzly, who is 14 months old and weighs 165 pounds. He was taken to an emergency veterinary clinic to be treated for leg injuries and a dislocated hip. “My son took him to the clinic and

then he brought him home,” Bearheart said. “The next day, his hip popped out again. He also has a large gash on his front leg.” Bearheart’s son then took Grizzly to the West Suburban Animal Hospital in Sylvania where he was looked at by Dr. Gary Thompson. “Dr. Thompson said Grizzly most likely is going to need to have hip replacement surgery in Columbus,” she said. “The estimated cost is $6,000, and that does not include physical therapy if he needs it.” Unfortunately, Bearheart drained her savings with the first vet bill, as well as her own medical costs, and is unable to afford the surgery. “I am more worried about Grizzly right now,” Bearheart said. “He is unable to walk a lot right now and he is my main concern.” Although the driver of the other vehicle did have insurance, the insurance company will not pay for the veterinary bills because Grizzly is considered personal property, Bearheart said. Dogs are family “My dogs are much more than property,” she said. “We go to the meat market,

The Ottawa County commissioners have set Feb. 21 and 26 as the dates for public hearings to accept public comment on a 0.25 percent sales tax that is expiring at the end of June. The hearings will start at 10 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. respectively and will be held in the county’s emergency operations center in Port Clinton. To bolster the county’s general fund, the commissioners levied the additional tax in 2010 and it went into effect July 1 for three years. With the emergency tax, the county’s total sales tax rate is 6.75 percent. The emergency portion generated $392,317 in 2010 and the base tax generated another $4.9 million. In 2011, they generated a combined $6.3 million; $1.25 million from the emergency tax and a little more than $5 million from the base tax. The commissioners noted in the county’s 2011 annual report that without a concerted effort to contain costs and the additional revenues from the emergency tax the general fund would have had a deficit of $892,487. They cited falling local revenues and doubts the state would reimburse local governments to meet the costs of required programs and services when they enacted the emergency tax. Jim Sass, a county commissioner, said the board of commissioners have two options if they want to extend the emergency tax: approve a resolution to continue it, which would be subject to a voter referendum, or put it on the November ballot as an issue for voters to decide. He said the tax was needed to maintain the status quo for the county budget and not expanding services or programs. The Ohio Department of Taxation defines a sales tax as a “trust” tax to be collected by retailers and certain service providers when they make taxable retail sales.

Garbage problems cause havoc in Genoa By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press A refuse collection company’s effort to enforce its contract terms is causing a big stink in Genoa. “It’s probably one of the biggest things I’ve seen since I’ve been in the job,” Village Administrator Kevin Gladden said. He became administrator nearly two years ago but had worked in the public works department more than two decades prior to the promotion. “People have been cussing out the billing clerks, yelling at them. It’s crazy,” he said. Two weeks ago, Waste Management of Ohio crews began strictly adhering to the weight, bag and container size limits designated in the company’s four-year contract with the village. That contract, which expires at the end of 2014, allows for weekly pickup of either four 35-gallon bags or four 35-gallon trash containers, with weights not exceeding 50 pounds, including the container. The contract also allows for one bulk item (such as a chair or mattress) to be placed curbside every Monday. By ordinance, residents and business owners pay $12.40 per month for the service, according to village records. Customers who exceed the bag limit must purchase tags at the village administration office. Extra refuse tags costs 80 cents each and extra yard waste tags are $2.50.

Hearings to commence The Lucas County Board of Revision is conducting hearings on the Complaints Against Valuation of Property filed by property owners and the school boards. Hearings will be held daily from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the sixth floor of One Government Center in conference rooms A and B. Hearings are scheduled in 15- to 20-minute intervals and are expected to conclude in mid to late September. For more information, call William Benner at 419-213-4335 or Miranda Jarouche at 419-213-4424. The hearings are open to the public.

And everyone must pay. There is no opting out of the garbage collection service, Gladden said. Apparently, trash collectors on the daily street runs had gotten lax in recent years, picking up extra bags at no charge and heavier loads than allotted in the contract, according to Gladden “They can’t even reach into the cans for bags anymore. People have been getting hurt. There have been injuries, accidents,” Gladden said. “They’ve been stuck by needles, lifted too many things that were heavy.” The crackdown on trash collection pickup guidelines is Waste Management upper management’s response to that rise in injuries. Waste Management officials warned residents of the clampdown in letters sent out in recent utility bills. They also received copies of the letters tagged to uncollected trash. “It’s not happening just in Genoa. It’s something that’s been happening industrywide,” Gladden explained. But residents of Genoa aren’t taking the news too well. And village employees who collect the monthly fee have fallen victim to a litany of rude and obscene comments from frustrated customers, Gladden said. “People say ‘My garbage cans are the right size.’ But these refuse people have been in the business long enough. They know the size of the containers.” “It’s not a Village of Genoa policy. It’s in the contract. They have the right to enforce it,” the administrator said. The problem is, some people have personally purchased the larger trash containers for their own convenience and to cut down on the number of trash cans sitting outside their homes or businesses. “One downtown business owner called me down to look at his garbage can. The can still had the Rubbermaid sticker on it that said 50 pounds,” Gladden said. Other residents say they will buy new trash containers, but want the village to reimburse them. That is not going to happen, Gladden added.

ing steadily at municipal dumps throughout the nation. “Those fees keep going up every year,” Gladden said. “It’s ridiculous.” And, he noted, as that happens, village leaders have attempted to keep those garbage bills at reasonable costs for residents and businesses. The current fees collected from users don’t cover the refuse hauling costs completely, Gladden said. “For the past few years the village general fund has been supplementing the costs to cover the contract.”

Waste Management will provide a 96gallon trash container on site for an additional $3 a month charge billed directly to the user. That container, which has wheels and a lid, can be mechanically lifted by equipment mounted on the garbage truck. “A lot of communities are going to that and maybe that’s something we need to consider when the contract comes up again,” Gladden said. “If you want better service, it’s going to cost you.” Waste haulers throughout the nation not only have to deal with their own costs, but are at the mercy of the fees that are ris-

Woman needs help saving her dog

Sales tax Continued from front page It is called a “trust” tax because the consumer has entrusted the tax to retailers and service providers with the understanding it will be reported and paid to the state. Counties and regional transit authorities may each levy a sales tax in multiples of 0.25 percent up to 3 percent. The total combined rate - state, county and transit authority - may not exceed 8.5 percent. At present, the total sales tax rates in Wood, Sandusky, and Lucas counties are 6.5 percent, 7 percent, and 6.75 percent respectively. In its platform priorities for 201314, the County Commissioners Association of Ohio says that for counties to perform the services and mandates taxpayers expect, county budgets need to be stabilized. “The Local Government Fund and Tangible Personal Property and Public Utility Tax reimbursements should be restored given the state’s budget is now balanced with a surplus and revenues continue to improve. In addition, costshifting state responsibilities to local governments or shifting revenue from counties to other political subdivisions based on the misconception of “high” casino revenue is contrary to constitutional intent. Broadening the sales tax base will help maximize both state and local revenues, as will collecting the sales tax on Internet sales,” the platform says.

They are both sled dogs and they just love it. “They are my transportation and they are my family,” Bearheart continued. “Grizzly is my buddy, he is not property like the insurance company says he is. He is my heart with four paws. I rescued him from the Bowling Green dog pound and he, in turn, has rescued me in his own way.” Originally, donations were being sent to Dr. Thompson, Bearheart said, so people would not think she was “scamming” them. Since the operation will not be performed by Dr. Thompson, checks earmarked for Grizzly have been returned with a letter explaining the situation. According to Baumgartner, an account has been opened at Fifth Third Bank for donations for Grizzly. “This really has been overwhelming,” Baumgartner said. Grizzly will have surgery at Med Vet, located just outside of Columbus, Baumgartner said. About $3,000 has been raised so far. The first veterinary bill was $800. Dr. Thompson did not charge for his services. “Insurance is not doing anything for my mom right now and she is having a hard time,” Baumgartner said. “This has been very hard on her. My mom did not want to ask for help and she is embarrassed by the whole thing. I told her she had to do something to keep her dog alive. We thank everybody who has donated and tried to help.” Longtime friend, Michelle Geiermann, who recently moved back to Minneapolis,

Development Friends of Pearson to discuss park projects goals outlined By Press staff writer

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Northwood’sEconomic Development Committee came up with short term goals to improve economic development in the city. “We had a very productive economic development meeting last night,” Councilman Dave Gallaher, chairman of the committee, said at a Northwood Council meeting on Jan. 24. “We discussed many things. One of the first things we did was to develop some short term goals.” At the top of the list: Promoting the development of vacant property on Curtice Road between Applebee’s Restaurant and I-280. “Years and years ago, there were some issues we had that were impeding development for that section. It should be a nice piece of property to develop for a potential restaurant. So we’re going to make that one of our goals, trying to identify what we can do to help that situation,” said Gallaher. The committee also recommended developing a plan to attract more businesses to the Great Eastern Shopping Center. “It sounds like a no-brainer,” said Gallaher. “Specifically, we’re going to try and identify businesses that we think the area needs, and actually go out and actively recruit them and put them in touch with Great Eastern.” He said the city could “entice them a little bit” by providing information on traffic counts at the intersection of Wheeling Street and Woodville Road. More time should be given to City Administrator Bob Anderson and Kimberly Grimes, the city’s planning, zoning and economic development coordinator, to lure businesses to the city. “The administrator wears a lot of hats, and Kimberly has zoning and economic development. There’s a lot of responsibilities that fall onto them during the day. I think we have to do something to dedicate some time to proactive economic development. I know they spend time answering the phone and answering questions on economic development trying to help people that come to the city get through the process. But what I’m wondering is, we have to allow time to actually go out and search for the businesses that we want to bring to the city and give them time to focus on more of a proactive stance to get that done and not waiting for the phone to ring, but actually getting someone else’s phone to ring.” Gallaher said he would like to discuss the matter further at a future council meeting. The committee also proposed updating the city’s website to include potential commercial property within the city. “If a potential business goes to the website, there should be a link somewhere that they can click on that would let them know what’s available in the city, square footage, that type of thing,” he said. A link to provide data on houses for sale, he added, should also be included. Finally, the committee recommended putting a list of available buildings and vacant property on the city website. Council, upon the committee’s recommendation, agreed to spend up to $1,000 for City Administrator Bob Anderson and Kimberly Grimes, the city’s planning, zoning and economic development coordinator, to attend a 2013 Ohio Economic Development basic course in Columbus March 6-8. “The city administrator has shown an interest in it,” said Gallaher. “He thinks it’s something that would be of use to him. ” The money will cover the cost of the course, and travel expenses. “If we’re going to send someone to a seminar or conference for economic development, it probably should be someone who is here to answer the phone or answer questions during the day. So Kimberly would be the logical person.” Council agreed. .

Marty Overholt, from the Metroparks planning and construction department, will discuss a new restroom structure being planned for Pearson North, along with other park projects at the Feb. 6 meeting of The Friends of Pearson Park. The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the newly-remodeled Packer-Hammersmith Center. The restroom building, which will be located near the Johlin Cabin, is being designed to look like a farm out-building. The facility, which will include a shelter with a kitchenette, will be available by reservation during the spring, summer and winter months. “That project is currently out for bid, with plans to begin construction this spring,” according to Scott Carpenter, public relations director, Metroparks of the Toledo Area. Overholt will also discuss ongoing plans for the park’s new playground, which will replace the existing playground and will include extensive new landscaping and custom-built, artistic playground struc-

A drawing of the shelter planned for Pearson Park North. tures referred to as “functional sculpture.” “This is part of a plan to replace playgrounds across the park district with ‘signature’ Metroparks playgrounds that add an element of education related to the surroundings,” Carpenter said. “For example, you can expect to see playground equip-

ment that resembles a snake, a frog and other species that would be found in the Great Black Swamp.” The meeting is free and open to the community. Visit www.metroparkstoledo. com for more information.

Genoa

Chief’s goals for 2013 include focus on businesses By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to the Suburban Press Establishing stronger connections with merchants and village residents will continue to be a central goal of the Genoa Police Department in 2013. Police Chief Robert Bratton recently outlined some of his goals in a January letter directed to Mayor Mark Williams. Those points included: • Continuing the level of communication with the mayor and village council regarding police operations. The chief also intends to adjust his monthly reports to provide more information. • Evaluation of community programs. Bratton said he intends to review the newly-revised Block Watch Program to see how it can be more informative for residents regarding crime issues and prevention programs. • New vehicle purchase. The chief hopes to get through most of 2013 with the current fleet. • Improving officer training through participation in the Owens Community program. For a one-time fee of $302 per year, all Genoa police officers have unlimited access to a variety of training programs at the site. The program is part of the college’s new regional training push, involving local officials such as Ottawa County

Sheriff Steve Levorchick and Clay Township Police Chief Terry Mitchell, to offer better services at reasonable rates. Bratton said his officers have made great strides in recent months to reaffirm their commitment to businesses, residents and property owners. As various reports are filed, Bratton said he intermittently calls those affected for status updates or to talk about how the situation was handled. “It’s just good customer service is how I look at it,” Bratton said. “One thing is for sure, I really want to work with the merchants. They have been shortchanged over the years.” Genoa Custom Interiors owner David Grosjean affirmed that the merchants’ ties with the police department have grown significantly stronger under Bratton’s guidance. “I think it’s wonderful,” Grosjean said. “It’s been a wonderful transition. He brings integrity, experience, to a job that needed it.” And, Grosjean noted, Bratton lives within the Genoa corporation limits. “So he’s also invested in what happens here.” The chief has also moved the monthly department staff meeting out of the police station and into the community in the latter half of 2012. The meetings have been held at the Genoa Retirement Center, Genoa Bank and the local library.

And it’s met with great success from both sides as far as Bratton is concerned. “People love it. They think it’s great. It’s a chance for the guys to get out of the office and get to know the people in these businesses,” Bratton explained, “You start to build a rapport.” A member of the police department also regularly attends the merchants meeting each Tuesday. “It’s nice. It shows our involvement and keeps us up on what’s happening without them having to track us down to ask questions,” Bratton said. Grosjean agreed. He said having police department personnel regularly at those meetings helps to quickly clear up issues ranging from traffic duty at special events to break-in concerns. The initiatives are also good for his officers’ morale, the chief added. “The guys wanted a change. They wanted to get away from the image before.” The western Ottawa County police department was struggling with a number of internal department issues for a couple of years prior to Bratton’s hiring. Officers complained about in-house harassment and unfair labor practices. The problems culminated with the unexpected resignations of both the former police chief and administrator within weeks of one another.

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon council this year plans to discuss an increase in the sewer rate that will help pay for an expansion of the wastewater treatment plant, which will be done in two phases over five years at a cost of over $15 million. “We’ll be looking at a rate increase. Certainly, that involves all of you,” Public Service Director Paul Roman said to council at a meeting on Monday. The increase will be presented to customers as a capital improvement rate charge, he said. “I think the way to do this is to set up two capital improvement rate increases, one for each phase,” he said. The current rate pays for operations. “It would be my wish to look at the first rate increase sometime in January, of 2014. You have the second half of this year to try and establish that rate for Phase 1,” he said. “Our code allows us to add a capital improvement rate for any particular capital improvement project,” he said after the meeting. “We have not yet figured out what that rate will be. We’re still going through our design. Eventually, likely some time in the summer, we’ll start meeting and going through in more detail what that rate increase would be. We’ll eventually figure out our total cost and the cost to finance it, then spread it out – and that’s how we’re going to set up the billing system. It will be applied towards the inside user as well as the outside user.” Lucas County and the Northwestern Sewer and Water District represent outside users or customers, he said. The rate will be based on per thousand cubic feet of wastewater treated, he said.

We’ll be looking at a rate increase. Certainly, that involves all of you.

The debt charge has been higher for outside customers. “The debt charge is really a capital improvement charge that paid for the initial construction of the wastewater treatment plant in 1978,” he said. “We used income tax to pay the inside users share of it. We refinanced the debt a few times. Only the outside users will still pay that debt charge through 2017.” Payment of the debt will be spread out over 20 years for each phase of the project, he said. “They’ll both have a 20 year pay off period,” he said. “It’s really well laid out. I think it’s a question of whether there should be income tax used or not. Energy savings can go toward the financing of this project over a 20 year period.” For Phase I, the city received a $700,000 loan and a $700,000 grant from the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC). The local share is $7,612,000 and it will be financed mostly by the Ohio EPA’s Water Pollution Control Loan Fund. The city, the Northwest Sewer and Water District, and Lucas County will contribute toward the local share of the project. Roman said he will apply for more funding for Phase 2.

“Overall, everything is on schedule and going well,” he said. Administrator Mike Beazley said there had been some concerns about the scope of the rate increase. “We feel good it’s much less costly than originally anticipated. I’m very satisfied Oregon will still comfortably have the lowest water and sewer rates in the market when we’re finished,” said Beazley. The expansion project is in response to a mandate from the Ohio EPA to deal with storm water and prevent sanitary sewer overflows. “The overall issue we have is that the sanitary sewer system takes on a lot of storm water. We’re in the process of trying to remove as much storm water as possible, because we don’t want to treat it. That storm water also backs the sewers up and eventually goes into basements and is a major problem. Whatever storm water we can’t get out, we have to treat, so we have to expand the plant in order to do that. The Northwestern Sewer and Water District also has a lot of storm water in their system and they are being mandated by the EPA to provide storage for their own sewage before it enters Oregon. So they’re part of the expansion in a way, and they are covering that cost themselves. We’re trying to do what we can to remove inflow and infiltration, but in the end, we still have to treat more flow because of more storm water.” Phase I will cost about $9 million, while Phase 2 will cost $6 million. “Phase I includes a lot of equipment replacement. Some of that equipment includes blowers for air. By replacing the blowers, energy consumption will go down because the new blowers are much more energy efficient. So there will be some savings with the equipment replacement because we’re putting in more energy efficient equipment,” he said.

Oregon to install five more flow meters

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon plans to install several temporary flow meters at five locations in the sanitary sewer system to help control storm water inflow and infiltration (I & I) from getting into the city’s wastewater collection system. The city has established a program of flow monitoring, video detection, and smoke testing to identify I & I sources. The flow monitoring is required to further define sources of extraneous storm water I & I in the wastewater collection system and is a requirement of the wastewater treatment plant Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NDPES) permit schedule of compliance. The city previously installed flow meters in 2008 and 2009. The additional flow monitoring is needed to further characterize sewer flow where previous data were determined to be incomplete, according to Public Service Director Paul Roman. “The additional flow monitoring is needed to further define the degree and location of I & I, in particular the South Shore Park area as well as our Navarre Avenue business district,” said Roman at a council meeting on Monday. Last September, the city submitted a Flow Monitoring Plan to the Ohio EPA showing the proposed locations of five meters. Three of the meters will be located in the North Oregon Sewer District in the vicinity of Bayshore and Stadium roads, and two in the Wheeling Street Sewer District along Navarre Avenue in the area of St. Charles Hospital. Flow monitoring is expected to start at the end of February or early March of this

year and continue through the end of June. “Eventually, we’ll do more to see what are the results of our I & I reduction,” said Roman. “We have seen quite a bit, especially during the dry weather. We think we’ve reduced our flow to the plant by 25 percent. Of course, when it rains, you don’t see that as much. But we know we’re making a lot of progress. There are still some unknowns. And that is what this is really all about. Based on what we find out, we may do more video inspection.” Smoke testing, particularly in South Shore Park, showed there were several illegal sanitary sewer connections, he added. The city in the last few years sent out notices to property owners, who illegally connect sump pumps and downspouts to sanitary sewers instead of storm sewers, in an attempt to address inflow and infiltration issues that caused flooding after heavy

rain. “We are getting those corrected. A lot of people have been very good about calling back, letting us know they’ve made the repair and have us go out and inspect the work. It’s been going very well. This is just really a part of that,” he said. A meter could be moved to another location if there is evidence of more I & I in an area, said Roman. “If one particular area of South Shore Park has more flow than another, we may move the meters further upstream, then do more video inspections as well,” he said. City council at the meeting approved a $24,855 contract with Jones & Henry Engineers, LTD., Toledo, to provide professional engineering services to install, operate, and monitor the meters. Funds for the contract were included in the city’s 2013 budget, said Roman. Jones & Henry will download the data and process it, said Roman. “We’ll write the report ourselves to the Ohio EPA. We’ll be required to do that. It’s pretty cost-effective. They will certify the results.” Administrator Mike Beazley said there has been a lot of improvement in the dry weather flow to the plant since the work upstream. “It really shows the work pays off. It was really the confidence the state had in Oregon’s work upstream that has kept Oregon from having to invest a lot more in this next round of NDPES permit,” said Beazley. “That’s made a big difference. So this work upstream really pays for itself in two ways: It helps protect our neighborhoods from flooding, but it also keeps taxpayers and rate payers from having a very large burden at the plant as well. So it pays for itself twice.”

Spaying and neutering kittens as young as eight weeks old is safe, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. Humane Ohio will fix kittens at this age as long as they weigh at least two pounds. Spaying a female cat before the first heat cycle is actually beneficial to its health, including a reduced risk of certain reproductive cancers and infections. “Every spring, local animal shelters and rescue groups are flooded with thousands of kittens,” said Jill Borkowski, Humane Ohio’s marketing director. “We can help these organizations by preventing unwanted kittens from being born, and we can help people with female cats by offering a really special rate to spay their cats.” Cat owners must mention the “Beat the Heat” promotion when they schedule the appointment with Humane Ohio to spay their pet. For more information, call 419266-5607. The website of Humane Ohio, which also runs a pet food bank, is www.humaneohio.org.

Your Voice on the Street: by Laura Norden

The Press Poll

What would be your ideal vacation?

Did the increase in your Social Security taxes this year change your spending habits? Yes. I won’t be spending as much this year as last year. No, it did not increase by that much. Yes. I have to save every penny to make ends meet.

Steve Jacob General Contracor Oregon “Tahiti. Just me and the little woman cruising, sailing, deep sea fishing and horseback riding on white sand beaches.”

Tammy Trent GM Clerk Toledo “West Virginia. My entire family lives there and everyone says 'Hi' when you walk into a store.”

Gratitude & sympathy To the editor: As a Walbridge resident, I was shocked to return from vacation to find that we no longer had Dan Wilczynski as our mayor and that his mother, Henrietta (Hattie) Wilczynski, a longtime family friend, had passed away. My letter is written in love and appreciation for the entire Wilczynski family. How horrid that some residents continue to “kick a guy when he’s down” – absolutely appalling. Dan Wilczynski did a great job as our mayor, never taking a penny in salary for a year and a half, and was always available by phone, email, or text, even when he was unable to be present. I truly doubt that we will ever have another mayor who will be as generous with our town. Dan Wilczynski clearly won more votes than any other candidate in the election, and any inference to the contrary is totally false. The people of Walbridge owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Dan Wilczynski for his service and our sympathy to his entire family during this time of grief in

Monstrous? To the editor: If Kellie L. Copeland (Roe v. Wade’s 40th “Anniversary” – Trust in women to make the right choice in hard decisions) finds an eagle egg on her property and decides she’s hungry for a western omelet, she is in some serious trouble. You don’t mess with eagles, their nests or their eggs, by law. Imagine if someone destroyed over 50,000,000 eagle eggs. What a monster. However, if Kellie decides she wants to kill her unborn child, she is perfectly within the law to do so. I had to smile when I read what she wrote in her guest editorial when she said, “All women must have the

right to make their own personal medical decisions when faced with an unplanned pregnancy based on their individual situation; no matter whether they decide to parent that child, to place it for adoption or to have a safe legal abortion.

Consistently plan each day in order to give priority to what is most important to you.

Every day you face numerous situations that range from invigorating to stressful. Your day can be 80 percent positive and 20 percent negative, and yet you may be devoting 80 percent of your energy to the negative. When this happens you become drained. You are effectively ignoring most of the good in favor of concentrating on the smaller percentage that is negative. By focusing your energy on problems, you lose sight of all the good things you have to be thankful for. This approach puts you in a constant state of struggle and frustration. Your appreciation of the important aspects in life is diminished or even lost. How many times have you heard someone remark that they didn’t really appreciate someone or something until it was gone? People who have had a near death experience or who have survived an extreme situation against the odds develop a fresh perspective on what’s really important. They feel as if they have been given a second chance and are never again consumed by that which is insignificant in the overall scheme of things. These survivors put all their energy into savoring every day as the second chance it is. They don’t get mired down with insignificant stressors. They understand that worry is a complete waste of time. Do you recognize and have an appreciation of what’s important to you? If you don’t, you will drift from one negative distraction to another. Since you are not grounded by what’s important, your energy is constantly sapped by the smallest of problems. Change your focus from what’s wrong to what is right. This shift keeps your mind on what’s really important. Those things you find important must be based on your values rather than someone else’s. Although other people can tell you what is important to them, they don’t necessarily know what’s important to you. If you haven’t spent much time thinking about what is important, here are a few suggestions to get you going: Time. Time goes by all too fast and it accelerates each year.

Szollosi tells chamber

Ohio’s steel rebounding due to shale oil development Page Two

by John Szozda

It would be hard not to be excited about the Utica and Marcellus shale development...

State Representative Matt Szollosi delivered the most exciting news at the annual State of the Communities event held recently at St. Charles Hospital. “It would be hard not to be excited about the Utica and Marcellus shale development that we’re seeing across the state of Ohio, primarily in the eastern part and southeastern part of the state. I support it,” he told an estimated crowd of 80 government and business leaders. Szollosi, who represents the 46th district which includes Oregon, Jerusalem Township, Maumee and South Toledo, said shale oil development is creating “thousands of jobs” and has the potential to “create a couple hundred thousand jobs.” The jobs are not only in the construction and energy fields but also in the high-paying steel industry. Szollosi said shale oil development, also called fracking, requires miles of steel piping for well casings. This need has created a boon in Ohio’s steel industry. Ninety percent of the steel used comes from Ohio mills, he said. These jobs pay some $35 an hour plus benefits. The New York Times reported in April that the Ohio steel industry was investing $1.5 billion to add two million square feet of production space. The plants are expected to create an estimated 650 jobs by the end of 2013. While Szollosi said he is excited about what shale oil development can do for the economically depressed areas around Youngstown and rural southeast Ohio, he is also excited about what will happen in

Columbus this year. Governor John Kasich will present his two-year budget to the legislature. The big issues are: Medicaid expansion, tax reform, education funding and the turnpike issue. Gov, Kasich has ruled out leasing the Ohio Turnpike to a private firm and announced late last year that the state will issue bonds totaling $1 to $1.5 billion backed by toll revenue to fund infrastructure upgrades. Szollosi, who was against leasing, said this is “probably not a bad idea.” Szollosi was one of six speakers at the

annual breakfast meeting sponsored by the Eastern Maumee Bay Chamber of Commerce. The others were: Mike Beazley, City of Oregon administrator; Bob Anderson, City of Northwood administrator; Aggie Dahar, City of Toledo economic development spokesperson; Joe Kiss, Jerusalem Township trustee and Ed Kolanko, Village of Walbridge mayor. Beazley said Oregon is preparing for major investments in late 2013 through 2014. These total more than $1 billion and include projects at Toledo Refining Company, BP-Husky and the expected groundbreaking of the $800 million Oregon Clean Energy project that will produce electricity for up to 500,000 homes. Other projects include a medical building east of Walmart, a new hotel on Navarre, which will break ground in the spring, and the completion of the Dustin Road upgrade. Anderson said the City of Northwood is looking forward to the completion in the fall of the long-awaited Wales Road overpass. This will improved traffic flow for Northwood, Oregon and East Toledo. He also said the city has taken an aggressive step toward demolition of the first mall built in Northwest Ohio. “We’re suffering with the Woodville Mall. We’ve taken some action recently to file suit to get the owners to do something. Once we straighten out that mess, we’ll be in a lot better position in the future. Right now we’re kind of holding our own.”

Expansion projects are also underway at Johnson Controls and Fed Ex. Dahar said the City of Toledo will receive “casino funds” because Raceway Park is moving out of the area. The money will be used to tear down Northtowne Mall. “I feel your pain with Woodville Mall,” she said. She touted the increased development in market rate housing in downtown and “a lot of interest” being generated in the Ironville area in East Toledo, a prime industrial site for firms with a need for shipping and rail access. Kiss said Jerusalem Township worked with the Lucas County Land Bank and demolished nine dilapidated homes. He added the two new soccer fields are getting much use and the township is proceeding with plans to get John Kennedy Park “up and running.” Kiss also said Columbia Gas is installing gas lines from N. Curtice Road to Jerusalem Elementary School. Ed Kolanko, the new mayor of Walbridge, said the Walbridge Elementary building has been sold and village officials are working with the Kateri Catholic School System about a use for the closed St. Jerome Elementary building. The village is also in the running for a $250,000 grant for infrastructure improvements to Union Street. Comment at zoz@presspublications.com

Bill is needed to protect lakes from the Asian carp By Senator Sherrod Brown

Guest Editorial

The Great Lakes region and the Ohio River basin are invaluable resources—providing a source of water for countless households, generating economic activity for the region, and providing jobs through commerce, fishing, and tourism. In fact, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, some 450,000 people fish in Lake Erie annually – contributing about $680 million to Ohio’s economy. But our fishing and tourism industries are threatened by Asian carp. Protecting the Great Lakes region and the Ohio River basin from Asian carp is about protecting our regional economy and the livelihood of thousands of Ohioans. These invasive species, with their voracious appetites, significantly alter the habitat– by crowding-out native bass, catfish,

have already been identified in the Ohio River – at the mouth of the Little Miami River, near Cincinnati. Although several federal agencies have already been combating Asian carp, we have yet to designate an agency as the lead. Simply put, we need a coordinated federal response. Last June, I helped pass the bipartisan Stop Invasive Species Act to expedite a strategy to block Asian carp from entering the Great Lakes. And though the bill was signed into law last summer, there is still more we must do. While we rightly focus on keeping the carp out of the Great Lakes in the Chicago region, we must also protect other pathways into the lakes. That’s why I’m re-introducing bipartisan legislation, Strategic Response to Asian Carp Invasion Act, with Senator Pat Toomey, a Republican from Pennsylvania,

to stop Asian carp from entering streams and rivers in our states. The Strategic Response to Asian Carp Invasion Act would coordinate a new federal effort with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, U.S. Geological Survey, Army Corps of Engineers, and state wildlife agencies to share best practices and technology to stop the threat of Asian carp. It would also require a yearly report to Congress on the efforts and movement of Asian carp within the Ohio and Upper Mississippi River region. We must all work together to protect the Great Lakes region and the Ohio River basin from this invasive species. The Strategic Response to Asian Carp Invasion Act is another much needed step to secure the economic drivers shoring up Ohio’s multimillion dollar fishing and recreation industries.

It looks like an open-and-shut case—until one of the jurors begins opening the others’ eyes to the facts. The deliberations become personal, with each juror revealing his or her own character as the various testimonies are reexamined, the murder is re-enacted and a new murder threat is born before their own eyes. Tempers get short, arguments grow heated, and the jurors become 12 angry people. Tickets are available by calling 419691-1398 or at the ticket booth the night of any show.

She breathes new life into murals

Continued from page 14

If the walls at Waite High School could talk, oh, the tales they could tell. Perhaps juicy tidbits about budding romances, worries over exams and college applications or what’s on the lunch menu. The walls in a few of the school’s corridors at Waite speak for themselves through lively murals painted by students back in the 1950s. Though the murals have generally stood the test of time, recent renovations at Waite meant the addition of new wiring, heating registers and ductwork. “Unfortunately, when they installed the conduit for the wiring, they ran it across the middle of the mural,” said Waite Principal Dave Yenrick. “The wall area around the HVAC ductwork had to be patched and repaired, which damaged the mural.” Yenrick enlisted the help of mural artist Carol Sicha, a 1969 graduate of the school, to blend in the renovation work. “I was familiar with her work, and knew she’d do a good job,” he said. Sicha, who studied art at Waite under teachers Kathy Genzman and John Wheeler, went on to study painting and graduated from Davis College with an associate degree in interior design. A resident of Whitehouse, she creates murals in residential and commercial settings and is a master

The Chili Cook-Off is open to the campus community as well as the general public. The College’s Office of Student Activities is encouraging individuals to donate $3 per person, which will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Attendees will have the opportunity to sample an assortment of chili from various Owens teams and then vote for their favorite. The team that receives the most votes will become the Chili Cook-Off People’s Choice winner and the chili will be sold at the College’s Fireside Grill. For more information about the event, call 1-800-GO-OWENS, ext. 2569. ******** The James “Wes” Hancock Oregon Senior Center is looking for the area’s best chili cooks for a cook-off Friday, Feb. 8 from 5 to 8 p.m. at St. Michael’s Centre, 4001 Navarre Ave., Oregon. The deadline for entries is noon Wednesday, Feb. 6. No entry fee. Winners will be chosen in three categories, including People’s Choice, Judges’ Choice and Best Chili Name.

Before picking up her brush, Sicha visited the school, took some photos and created a plan for the touch-up work. “I remembered the murals from when I was a student at Waite,” Sicha said. “I was glad to have the opportunity to restore the artwork.

Over a period of a couple of months, Sarah Czebotar painstakingly marked and painted the intricate pattern of triangles and squares to create the colorful barn quilt at the Millbury home she shares with her husband, Paul.

Millbury couple’s barn quilt is a real piece of work There are barns aplenty dotting the landscape throughout Northwest Ohio. Though the occasional structure will be painted with a “Mail Pouch Tobacco,” and a few have the Ohio Bicentennial logo, for the most part, they blend in with the landscape and are pretty easy to miss as you motor by. Motorists might want to slow down and get a closer look at the barn on Sarah and Paul Czebotar’s Millbury property, located at 1201 South St. (SR 795), near the intersection with Fostoria Road. Late last fall, the couple decorated the run-of-the-mill red barn with a colorful and eye-catching 8 x 8 barn quilt. Barn quilts are painted quilt squaresusually fashioned on boards and then mounted on a barn or other building. In America, barn quilts can be traced back almost 300 years to the arrival of immigrants from the central regions of Europe – Germany, Austria and the Netherlands. The quilts are popular in many areas of the country, including, Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania. In fact, quilt trails have been developed in many states, helping enthusiasts find the location of barns or structures. Oftentimes, maps will have an address, and perhaps a photo of the square and a name or explanation of its meaning. It was Paul’s idea to create a quilt for the family barn. Having grown up in Wisconsin, he had seen the designs on barns before. “One day last summer he said, ‘Why don’t you make one of those barn quilts?’” Sarah said. “I had never seen one and didn’t know what he was talking about. “I thought he was talking about a regular quilt, which I had made before,” she said. “I thought he was crazy – I wasn’t about to do all that work and have a quilt get all dusty in the barn. After Paul explained what the quilts were, the couple shared a laugh and then looked up more about the quilts on the Internet. Like many people looking for instructions on how to do or make things, the couple turned to YouTube, where they found step-by-step instructions for making a barn quilt. “I thought, ‘I could do this,’” Sarah said. “You can make them 2 x 2 all the way to 8 x 8 – we chose the largest one because my husband is all about doing everything in a big way.” The couple looked through quilting books and magazines at the bookstore, trying to find the perfect pattern. “I wanted something unique, so I drew a few designs on my own, but I wasn’t really satisfied. “Paul, who was off on downtime from his job at Jeep at the time was anxious to get started because he wanted to get the quilt up by fall,” Sarah said. After much deliberation, they borrowed some quilting books from a friend and agreed to just open a page and choose a design. “It was so colorful and beautiful

and I hadn’t seen any other barn quilts like it,” Sarah said. Paul, who is adept at carpentry, cut the wood square, and the couple painted and primed it on both sides. “I didn’t really realize how big 8 x 8 is – it seemed gigantic,” Sarah said. Paul then masked out the center, and Sarah drew the intricate pattern of triangles and squares. “Then we mapped out all the colors, marking them with pencil before starting the painting,” Sarah said. “We had to have tons of erasers to remove all the marks before painting, so they didn’t come through.” The project took a couple of months to complete. “Now I understand why most

barn quilts are very simple – two to three colors and big triangles. You have to put on three to five coats of paint to endure the weather – it takes a long time. “I thought we should put on some kind of finish, but it turns out you’re not supposed to because over time, it would distort the brilliance of the color and yellow with the sun,” Sarah said. Sarah’s goal was to have the quilt hung by Thanksgiving so family members could see their handiwork. “I was disappointed when Paul told me he couldn’t finish making the hardware to hang it in time,” Sarah said. However, she was surprised and elated when she came home from her shift at the

Oregon Kroger on Thanksgiving Day to find the quilt hanging prominently on the barn. “He got some friends to help him as a surprise,” Sarah said. “I was so happy I thought I was going to cry.” The couple has been gratified by the comments of family and friends. “We’re not really ‘by’ too many people we know, but I hope people who drive by are enjoying it,” Sarah said. The couple hopes their quilt will inspire other local barn owners to create their own designs. “I also want to get ours listed on the Barn Quilt Map,” Sarah said.

Lake hockey program still going strong after 41 years By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com This time of the year, the prep basketball, wrestling and swim teams are entering the stretch run of the season. Some area athletes are focusing on a different sport — hockey. For 35 years, Lake High School fielded a varsity hockey team. Six years ago, cutbacks were made to the school district’s budget and tennis, hockey, and bowling were eliminated from the athletic programs. Enter Craig Horvath. “After that happened, I spoke to Dave Fielding, who runs the Northwest Hockey Conference. He said, ‘If you guys think you can fund (the team), we’ll give you a shot.” Six years later, Horvath and his team are still going strong with the team now existing as a club sport. This year’s squad is led by forward Salahadin Mustapha and goalie Nick Horsman. Mustapha, a.k.a “Moose”, a resident of Sylvania, is one of the top scorers in the NHC’s White Division. and Horsman, a hockey fanatic, is one of its top goalies. Ac-

cording to the NHC’s statistics, Mustapha had 23 goals in the team’s first six games. Lake is 13-10 overall and currently stands in third place at 5-5 in the division. They trail Anthony Wayne (11-0) and Sylvania Southview (6-3-2). Following Lake is Perrysburg (4-7) and Fremont Ross (0-10). The league as a whole has 16 teams, 10 of which are in the White Division and six of which are in the Red Division. The NHC is home to a number of the state’s top programs, among them St. John’s Jesuit, Findlay, Bowling Green and Maumee. In fact, the conference has produced the last two state champions, Sylvania Northview and St. Francis DeSales. Thus far, Lake is having an up-anddown season after going 21-12-4 and winning the division in 2011-12. “We did not win all of the games we could have,” Mustapha said, “but we are working hard to be more successful in the future. We are doing pretty well as a new team in the division, but that should not be an excuse.” “We’re a Jekyll and Hyde team so far,” Horvath said, alluding to the team’s inconsistent play. “We’re a .500 team and we’re starting to find ourselves. We’re not a bad

team. We’ve been close with Anthony Wayne the last six years.” More than anything, what holds this team together is unity. For these players, it’s about having a common goal and working hard to achieve it. “The team has pretty good camaraderie,” Horvath said. “Once they get in the locker room, it’s all about hockey. We’ve never really had any problems with (the chemistry). If you get the right mix in your locker room, that’s what it’s all about.” “The best way I can say it is that it’s like a brotherhood,” Horsman said. “With all the boys and coaches, it’s pretty much a family.” Mustapha elaborated, “At practice, we work hard together and if one of us is slacking, we pick him up and encourage him to work harder. In the games, we never say degrading things to each other and if one of us needs to tell something to another player, it is to improve their game. We stand up for each other. Off the ice, this team may joke around a lot, but when game time comes, we’re all prepared to play.” Horvath doesn’t run the show by himself. He’s got a number of assistant coaches, among them Tony Horvath, his son, and

Brandon Maze. Horvath also credits Ron Kenney, who played hockey at Waite High School in the ‘70s, and Jeff Pierce, who is from Canada, with helping him keep things together. The roster, which includes 12 players, features, in addition to Mustapha and Horsman, a capable, versatile group of athletes. There are a number of players who play both forward and defensemen, among them Sam Rogers, Malachi McLean (1 G, 5 A), Jeff Wilson (3 G, 3 A) and Jordon Dirkman (3 G, 2 A). Joining Mustapha on offense is Kyle Ramer (4 G, 8 A), Adam Wozniak (4 G, 1 A), Caleb Opblinger and Pat Modowski. Jordon Ramer (2 G, 6 A) and Dylan Mauder (1 G, 5 A) serve as full-time defensemen. “We definitely mix it up depending on who we’re playing,” Horvath said. “I don’t believe in starting the same kids every night; we don’t have a starting lineup. We have 10 to 11 guys that can do things for us every night. I could tell you a good thing about every one of them. Moose, he stands out and leads us in points, but I don’t like to talk about individuals too much because they all do their part, they’re all part of the team.”

Maumee Bay Turf Center is slated to install over 25 fields in the local tri-state area in 2013, but is emerging on the national scene. “We now have 14 other network partners serving all 50 states now and have a division handling projects overseas,” said Kapfhammer’s business partner, Brad Morrison.

Henneman gets 100th win during state duals match By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer

“

sports@presspublications.com

I haven’t killed anything yet.

“

Brian Henneman has a confession to make. The Clay senior wrestler enjoys hunting, but he’s still trying to perfect his aim. “I haven’t killed anything yet,� he said. “I’ve missed a lot. I’ve had some really close shots, easy ones, and I missed them. I’ve been hunting with my whole family since I was a little kid. I love the adrenaline rush. The sport of it is fun to do. Getting to eat what you kill, it’s good.� Henneman doesn’t go hunting as often as he used to. His wrestling career, he said, “comes first.� The 5-foot-6 Henneman has a 26-6 record at 126 pounds this season and recently earned a milestone victory. He collected his 100th win last weekend, in the first round of the State Duals against visiting Whitmer. “It was really special,� said Henneman, whose career record stands at 103-42. “I had my family out there, my coaches made a banner and had it announced. It was a goal, for sure, to get 100 wins. At Clay, we have all these banners and they have a board that says ‘100 wins.’ They have all these people on it and I just wanted to be one of those people on the board.� Henneman didn’t take up wrestling until his eighth grade year. He said he watched other family members compete on the mat, like his older cousin, Richie Henneman, and finally decided to take the plunge. “I watched him wrestle and got interested, and (the school) made an announcement and I tried it,� Brian said. “I fell in love with it right away. I had been (playing) football and baseball. I was a good pitcher. I decided wrestling was the best option for me. I have no regrets.� Henneman’s two younger brothers, Aaron, 16, and Nick, 14, are also Clay wrestlers. “Brian is very hard working and will do anything asked of him,� Clay coach Ralph Cubberly said. “He has a non-stop motor and can wear his opponents down.� Henneman started out at Bowsher High School as a freshman, but his wrestling career with the Rebels got blown up af-

Clay senior Brian Henneman celebrates his 100th wrestling victory last week. Henneman is 25-6 this season at 126 pounds. (Photo from Julia Henneman Dallape). ter Toledo Public Schools eliminated its wrestling programs due to budget issues. In addition to his 26 wins this season, Henneman has taken first place at the Clyde Invitational and at the Sally George Invitational in Marion, Ohio. He also placed fifth at the Maumee Bay Classic. “This season is going well,� Henneman

said. “We have a tough schedule to wrestle and tough practices. Coach Cubs is always hard on us. I’ve been improving a lot, winning closer matches this year. Last year I lost a lot of one-point matches, and this year I’m winning those one-point matches.� Henneman said the difference this season is he’s been able to ride his opponents

more and he’s better on top. He has focused on getting first-period takedowns in order to get an early lead. “I wanted to be physical and move kids around and use ‘heavy hands,’ � he said. “That means you’re heavy on the kid’s head, pounding the kid, pushing him and smacking his head. You want to tire him out. Coach Cubs has taught that since he’s become coach. He wants us to capitalize on that and getting kids tired.� Henneman traveled with the Lake Erie Wrestling Club last offseason and also wrestled at the Disney Duals with several other Clay teammates in late June. He competed at 137 pounds in Florida and came back with a sub-.500 record. “It taught me I needed to cut weight,� Henneman admitted. “My senior year I wanted to wrestle 126 because that was going to be my best chance to get to state. The kids up in the 132s and 138s (weight classes) were a lot bigger and stronger than me in general.� Henneman has yet to place in two trips to the district tournament (he went 2-2 at 120 pounds last season), but he is confident this year will be different. “One of my goals since freshman year was to get to state and get on the podium,� he said. “I missed it last year and it’s driven me this year to get there. I always think about it. It’s my senior year and I want to get there really bad. I’m driving myself to do it and putting in the time in practice.�

Genoa senior

Looking back, Seth Morrison made right decision By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Genoa senior Seth Morrison had a decision to make way back in the seventh grade. Did he want to continue playing hockey, a sport he took up around age 5 and still enjoyed, or should he switch to wrestling heading into junior high? “I knew if I was going to play hockey I wouldn’t be able to go to Genoa and play sports with my friends and everybody,” Morrison said. “All my other friends wrestled. One of my friends was like, ‘Hey, you have to come out for wrestling.’ ” And so he did. “I didn’t do too well my seventh or eighth grade year, but everyone pushed me,” said Morrison, who played forward for the Toledo IceDiggers. “I’m glad I made that decision. I miss hockey a little bit, but I do love to wrestle. I was a pretty good hockey player. That’s a team sport, and the team I was on was really good. We traveled all over the place.” Morrison ran his season record to 474 after going 10-0 at the St. Mary’s Duals last Friday and Saturday. He went 8-1 at the Napoleon Duals two weeks ago, and in the process he earned his 100th career win, against an opponent from Bryan. “Seth has had a breakout year,” Genoa coach Bob Bergman said. “He’s just putting it all together. He’s the hardest driller in our (practice) room. He makes every day a good day, and it’s showing on the mat. It’s cool to see him succeed, because Seth is a great kid. He’s real likeable and real coachable. The total package.” The 5-foot-9 Morrison, who competes at 126 pounds, admitted getting win No. 100 was a big deal. He now has 112 for his career. “I started wrestling varsity my freshman year, and that was one of my goals,” he said. “Only (a handful) of kids had ever done that at Genoa.” The Comets only had nine wrestlers earn 100 wins in school history prior

Genoa wrestler Seth Morrison tries to escape from an opponent. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton/ HEHphotos. lifepics.com) to this season, but Morrison and three teammates have reached that milestone this season alone. Max Reeder, a junior who has wrestled at 138 and 132 pounds this season, and seniors Drew Keenan (145) and Jake Fejes (152) have all reached the 100-win mark. Keenan has 136 career victories, while Fejes has 115 and Reeder has 108. “Drew got his about three weeks before the rest of us,” Morrison said. “Jake and I were only two or three wins apart coming into the season. Once the season got going and we were doing pretty well, we were both at 15 wins and we’re saying, ‘man, we’re going to get 100 wins pretty quick.’ ”

Reeder, a state qualifier as a freshman, is Morrison’s workout partner. “Max beats me up pretty good at practice,” Morrison said. “That’s the reason I go out there and try to beat the crap out of my (opponents). He’s a lot quicker than me, and stronger. He’s strong.” Morrison is a two-time district qualifier who competed at 103 pounds as a freshman and sophomore and at 120 last season. His decision to compete at 126 pounds this year has proven to be a winner. “I thought I would drop down to 120 this year for sectionals,” Morrison said. “Now, I’m just going to stay at 126. I just think it’s a good, healthy weight for me to

wrestle at. Cutting weight doesn’t always make you wrestle your best.” Morrison, who plans to study construction engineering at the University of Toledo next year, has his sights set on wrestling at the state tournament at the end of the season. “I’d say I’ve been having a pretty good season,” he said. “All of the kids I’ve lost to, one kid took fourth at state last year in Division II. The three other losses, I probably shouldn’t have had. All in all I’m doing pretty well and, hopefully, I can reach my goals. I’m hoping to be on that podium this year at state. Placing at state would be the goal.”

Being able and willing to accept where we are in our lives can benefit our peace of mind and add to our personal happiness. We all know that life is not always easy, and that everyone has issues with which to contend; however, our attitude and the way in which we address our daily concerns defines our character and well being.

Step aside Eagles, here come the Wildcat bowlers By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com

Last year bowling was for fun, and this year he’s seeing what the team can do and he’s put the mental part together of being serious.

Woodmore’s boys bowling team has waited three years for this. Playing in a conference that is traditionally dominated by Eastwood, coach Steve Burner’s squad is just two wins away from claiming the Northern Buckeye Conference regular-season title. The Wildcats, who beat Eastwood twice this season, won the NBC tournament on Jan. 5 at Cedar Lanes in Sandusky, beating runner-up Port Clinton by 50 pins. “I would say Port Clinton was the favorite, with their five bowlers to my five bowlers,” Burner said. “We bowled really well and Port Clinton bowled basically their average. We’re a team that is not bowling really well with the Baker games, but we bowled really well with the Baker games that day.” Woodmore improved to 10-2 in the NBC with Wednesday’s 54-pin win at Fostoria. The ‘Cats can win the NBC title with wins over Rossford on Friday and Gibsonburg next Wednesday. Both of Woodmore’s conference losses are to Port Clinton (10-3). “This is only our third year in the league and we’ve been looking for this point,” said Burner, whose team features four seniors and two juniors. “We’re senior-loaded and these guys have been looking at that opportunity since we’ve been in the league. Eastwood has been to state how many times, and how many great bowlers has (coach) Jay (Young) had. Bob Black at Port Clinton has a great program, and Rossford has a great program.” Clinching the regular-season NBC title, Burner said, “would be a heck of a thing for our kids.” Woodmore is led by Burner’s son, Tyler, who earned all-tournament first team honors on Jan. 5. Tyler, who rolled three 200-plus games (241, 230, 234) to win the tournament, carried a 209 season average

Not pictured: Tyler Porter. (Photo courtesy of Steve Burner) into Wednesday’s match, the third-highest average in the conference. The conference record for season average is 212. “The biggest thing that has changed in his game is the maturity factor,” coach Burner said. “He doesn’t get so upset like he used to if something bad happens to him. Golf and bowling, same thing. He’s done a very good job of controlling his emotions.” Senior Zack Mathna has a 197 conference average, the fifth-highest average in the NBC. “The biggest thing with Zack this year

is he’s just taking it more serious than last year,” coach Burner said. “Last year bowling was for fun, and this year he’s seeing what the team can do and he’s put the mental part together of being serious. I knew he had it in him. When he bowls, it’s just a matter of being serious and getting down and doing it.” Tyler Crump, a junior, carries a 188.9 average in conference play. Coach Burner said Crump and Tyler Burner are basically mirror images of each other. “Talk about two identical people,” he said. “They’d get so upset with something

that happens that it would cost them two frames after that. Both of them have learned to control their emotions.” Senior Ryan Paul, who has a 179 average, struggled during the middle of the season but has come on of late, according to coach Burner. “Our last few matches, Ryan has really tore it up score-wise,” the coach said. “He’s bowled around 420 (for two games) the last couple times out.” Junior Jake Neufer, the Wildcats’ No. 5 man and a first-year varsity player, has a 176 average; senior Tyler Porter has also contributed this season. “Being his first year, Jake’s been up and down,” coach Burner said. “He’s helped us out in matches and helped us win matches with some of the scores he’s shot. Tyler (Porter) hasn’t had a lot of varsity matches, but he’s averaging 191 in two games in league play. He’s been starting to come on lately. Last year he didn’t know anything about bowling. Now he’s bought a new ball and he’s striving to get his game better, and he’s doing a good job at it.”

Northwood keeper leads Cherokees to championship By Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com The 2001 Toledo Cherokee PeeWee minor travel hockey team, with one player from Northwood, won the International Silver Stick Hockey Tournament in Newmarket, Ontario. Northwood resident and goaltender Devon Bobak through nine games including regional and international competition, only allowed 10 goals while posting four shutouts. The international hockey tournament dates back to 1958 and is the only minor hockey tournament to be recognized by the Hockey Hall of Fame. The champions are rewarded with the right to hoist and pass the silver stick that never leaves the tournament and they will also have their names engraved on a plaque that is placed in the Hockey Hall of Fame next to the original sterling silver stick and the famous green jacket that tournament founder Jack Kinsella wore. To be invited to this tournament, the team must win its Regional Silver Stick tournament. which was in Cincinnati. The experience of winning the international tournament proved to be rewarding, but also a bit challenging during the Cherokees’ semifinal game when the team had just six forwards and four defensemen along with their goalie to get them through to the championship game. During round-robin play, the ‘01 Cherokee handled Saginaw and Aurora, defeating

The third win against North York (4-1) kept the momentum going but it left them with two players that would have to sit out the next semifinal game versus Centre Wellington after receiving game penalties.

This was the first opportunity for the ‘01 team to be involved in a tournament that allowed checking and although the players adapted well, there proved to be some hiccups. During that semifinal game, with an al-

ready short bench, another Cherokee player left injured with a broken hand, leaving the last nine minutes of the game to be played with just five forwards. Although the players were physically worn, the coaching staff kept the players motivated, hydrated, and utilized quick shifts to manage such a short bench. That, along with the sheer determination of the players, allowed the Cherokees to pull off a 3-2 victory and head to the finals. Coach Joe Sofo stated, “We as coaches and parents witnessed something truly incredible by 11-year-old boys. What they physically and psychologically went through in the semifinals and how they persevered and competed was simply amazing for any level of competition.” The championship game was held on Sunday, Jan. 13, in Newmarket, Ontario against Aurora, which made it through round robin and beat a tough Mississauga team to advance and play Toledo once again. Toledo played a much more complete game with a full bench, beating Aurora 7-0 to bring home the championship. “We are so proud of our boys and the fact that they represented Toledo and the USA to bring home a win is something they will never forget,” Coach Sofo commented. The ’01 team consists of players from all over the region who play under the GTAHA (Greater Toledo Area Hockey Association) organization at the Team Toledo Ice House on Alexis Road. The team is coached by Steve Dickinson, Joe Sofo, and Toby Hafner.

Federal funds will be used to repair (by trenchless construction methods) approximately 308 LF of existing sanitary sewer on Arthur Street and 428 LF of existing sanitary sewer on Portland Street between Wheeling Street and Whittlesey Avenue. The site is located within the 100-year floodplain associated with Otter Creek. The City of Oregon determined that approval of the project will have no significant impact on the environment for the following reasons: 1. Repairs will be designed and performed per FEMA-NFIP Guidelines. Underground utility lines not requiring above ground service structures are permitted in a mapped floodway and can be considered “no impact� if project does not involve placement of fill, change of grade, or construction within channel. The proposed project entails repair in-place of existing sanitary sewer lines; no above ground service structures are proposed or involved in the project. 2. Project entails repair in-place of existing sanitary sewer lines in an urban area on previously developed sites. Floodplain disturbances will be minimal and temporary during repair. 3. Accepted construction practices are to be employed to avoid sedimentation or improper infill of floodplain area during the project. Subsurface excavation will be minimal. 4. Improvements will be monitored by the City of Oregon Public Services Department. Any interested person, agency, or group wishing to comment on the project may submit written comments for consideration to Ms. DarLynn Huntermark, Deputy Finance Director (419-698-7012) via email at DHuntermark@ci.oregon.oh.us or at the City of Oregon, 5330 Seaman Road, Oregon, OH 43616 by 5:00 p.m. on February 11, 2013.

Estimated Cost of Project: $25,600 The City of Oregon has prepared an Environmental Review Record (ERR) for each of the projects listed above. The ERR documents the environmental review of the projects. The ERR is on file and available for the public's examination and copying, upon request, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday (except holidays) at the above address. The City of Oregon plans to undertake the projects described above with the Federal funds cited above. Any interested person, agency, or group wishing to comment on the projects may submit written comments for consideration to the City of Oregon at the above listed address prior to February 12, 2013. The City of Oregon certifies to the State of Ohio that Michael J. Seferian, in his capacity as Mayor, consents to accept the jurisdiction of Federal courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The legal effect of the certification is that upon its approval, the City of Oregon may use the Federal funds, and the State of Ohio will have satisfied its responsibilities under the National Environmental PolicyAct of 1969, as amended. The State of Ohio will accept an objection to its approval of the release of funds and acceptance of the certification only if it is on one of the following grounds: (a) the certification was not, in fact, executed by the responsible entity's Certifying Officer; (b) the responsible entity has failed to make one of the two findings pursuant to Section 58.40 or to make the written determination required by Section 58.35, 58.47, or 58.53 for the project, as applicable; (c) the responsible entity has omitted one or more of the steps set forth at Subpart E of 24 CFR Part 58 for the preparation, publication, and completion of an Environmental Assessment; (d) the responsible entity has omitted one or more of the steps set forth at Subparts F and G of 24 CFR Part 58 for the conduct, preparation, publication, and completion of an Environmental Impact Statement; (e) the recipient has committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before release of funds and approval of the environmental certification by the State; or (f) another federal agency, acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504, has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Written objections must meet the conditions and procedures set forth in Subpart H of 24 CFR Part 58, and be addressed to: State of Ohio Development Services Agency; Office of Community Development; Environmental Officer; P. O. Box 1001; Columbus, Ohio 43216-1001. Objections to the Release of Funds on bases other than those stated above will not be considered by the State of Ohio. No objections received after March 1, 2013 (which is 15 days after it is anticipated that the State will receive a request for release of funds) will be considered by the State of Ohio. The address of the certifying officer is: Michael J. Seferian, Mayor, City of Oregon, 5330 Seaman Road, Oregon, Ohio 43616

Hi, I'm Wilson. I am an adorable little guy, aren't I? I have lots of energy and love to be around people. I am still a fairly young man, so I am still learning my manners. I like to jump up on people because I am just so excited to see them and want them to notice me, but I'm working on breaking that habit I am also working on walking better on a leash! I love toys of all kinds and would LOVE to play with you! I get along well with other dogs and cats and pretty much just love everyone! Stop out and meet me today, I'd love to meet you!
