By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press news@presspublications.com Four Ottawa County sheriff’s deputies lost pay, were suspended and kicked off marine patrol duty for the remainder of the year for crossing into Canadian waters last month. “What they did was absolutely a bad decision,” Ottawa County Sheriff Steve Levorchick said. “It was inappropriate. They knew it.” Levorchick’s chief deputy, Jeff Hickman, received the most severe penalty – a 20-day suspension. Detective Joel Barton was off the job for 15 days. The other two deputies, Don St. Clair and Ross Glovinsky, landed three day suspensions. Hickman, the highest ranking of the deputies, earns $28.15 an hour, according to Ottawa County Auditor Larry Hartlaub. He retired from the sheriff’s office in 2009 and was later rehired. The disciplinary action did not affect his retirement pay. Barton makes $25.01 an hour. Hickman acknowledged that it was wrong and took full responsibility, the sheriff said. All four men also lost pay for that day (July 18) and had to pay back $400 worth of gas divided evenly among them, the sheriff said. That money was paid directly to the gasoline vendor used by the marine patrol. “The estimated amount was probably less than what a daily trip would cost. But I would rather error on the side of caution. This trip did not cost the taxpayers any money,” Levorchick said. The marine patrol was not on duty in U.S. waters on a crystal clear Saturday when Lake Erie was like a sheet of glass and boaters, jet skiers and other marine enthusiasts were out in force. Instead, the four deputies drove two boats to ports on Pelee Island and Lemington, Ontario. The foursome’s trip was revealed to the sheriff in a Sunday night telephone call from a Northern Border Initiative official who had spotted them during the venture. The federally funded organization works closely and shares information with the sheriff’s office. One of the two boats used that day

Gibralter Island

The epicenter for studying Lake Erie By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com One of the biggest players actively involved in keeping Lake Erie healthy can be found on a 6.5 acre island easily accessible from downtown Put-In-Bay. Gibraltar Island used to be a lookout point for Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry in the fight against the British during the War of 1812. Now, it’s a lookout for keeping the world’s most recreationally-used freshwater lake environmentally healthy and its billion-dollar tourism industry thriving. The Ohio State University’s F.T. Stone Laboratory on Gibraltar Island is 120 years old and has been Ohio’s Lake Erie laboratory since 1895. It is the oldest freshwater biological field station in the country and is part of Ohio Sea Grant. If you have ever been curious about the

For two days last week, 20 journalists from around the country got that chance, and they were updated about ongoing Lake Erie research during the Sixth Annual Lake Erie Workshop for Science and Outdoor Writers and Reporters at Stone Lab, courtesy of the Joyce Foundation, the OSU Sea Grant

Program, and the Friends of Stone Lab. They were told about how Ohio Sea Grant and Stone Lab are bringing together farmers, fertilizer companies, scientists, and management agencies to find ways to prevent harmful algal blooms through new management practices and public outreach, and just in time. This year, total and dissolved phosphorous loading into Lake Erie is at an alltime high, which scientists attribute to record-setting rainfall in June. However, the amount of toxin produced by microcystis — the cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) that feed off phosphorous and nitrogen, is not as high, which puzzles scientists.

As summer comes to an end, the Wood County Humane Society is inviting the community to “fall” in love with a shelter kitten. WCHS will offer an adoption special Sept. 9-13. All adoptable kittens are “adopt one and take home a second for free,” or adopt a single feline for 50 percent off. Adoption hours are Wednesday and Thursday from noon-7 p.m. and Friday, Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. The shelter is located at 801 Van Camp Rd., Bowling Green.

The epicenter for studying Lake Erie Continued from front page that you are on what may be considered an epicenter for Lake Erie research. However, OSU is only one player. Instead, it’s a multitude of scientists from the University of Toledo, Bowling Green State University, Heidelberg University, and other Great Lakes and national institutions. They take pride in being part of a cooperative effort that works along parallel lines and shares information. While the majority of current Lake Erie research is related to detecting and mapping harmful algal blooms, there is so much more going on at Stone Lab and its affiliates — such as tracking walleye movements with telemetry, eliminating the dead zone in the Central Basin, fighting invasive species, developing renewable energy, fighting water pollution, and improving water treatment technology. And, that’s a small sampling of research projects. For example, Heidelberg University has been monitoring rivers in the Western Lake Erie watershed and providing Stone Lab with data since 1974. If you want to know how scientists are able to fingerprint where the sources of phosphorous are that feed harmful algal blooms in Lake Erie, Heidelberg’s Dr. Laura Johnson can present evidence of phosphorous discharge and loading from the Maumee River. Then, she can explain why scientists are confident it can be attributed to the Western Basin’s agriculture industry. “This is the go-to research,” said Dr. Christopher J. Winslow, interim director for Ohio Sea Grant and Stone Lab. “We are thankful to Heidelberg every day during the summer, recognizing that we can’t make a lot of the comparisons and predictions if it wasn’t for that data set. “Not only has it been a program that has been running for a long period of time, the staff that works that facility have been very, very cooperative — just great scientists to work with and it’s just fantastic.” Winslow has been with Ohio Sea

After finishing his doctoral studies and a two-year professorship in Pennsylvania, he returned to Stone Lab to become assistant director under longtime director and nationally recognized Lake Erie scientist Dr. Jeff Reutter. After Dr. Reutter retired on March 31, Winslow took over as interim director on April 1 while a national search continues for a permanent director. For Dr. Winslow, he’s glad to be back on Gibraltar Island. “This is really where my heart is — with Lake Erie,” Winslow said.

Levorchick contacted U.S. and Canadian officials about the infraction. Aside from the fact they were out of U.S. waters during regular work time; they also carried service weapons and may have violated Canadian gun laws. U.S. and Canadian officials did not file charges. He also contacted Ottawa County

Prosecutor Mark Mulligan since St. Clair is a part of the Ottawa County Drug Task Force. Mulligan handed down St. Clair’s discipline, he noted. Hickman reasoned the day trip was made to scope out sites should the marine patrol be called in for mutual aid, Levorchick said. The two had never discussed the mutual aid issue or the possibility of traversing into Canadian waters, the sheriff said, adding the U.S. Border Patrol, stationed on Catawba Island, and the U.S. Coast Guard,

Enough deputies remain available to handle patrol duties for the rest of the 2015 boating season, Levorchick said. Patrols can occur during the week but are mostly centered on the busy tourist weekends. The group’s status for the 2016 season is uncertain for now. “There will be another review next year,” Levorchick said regarding the foursome’s future marine patrol duties.

Lake Twp. would be included in proposal

Storm water district will be discussed By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com After making presentations to trustees in Lake, Middleton and Perrysburg townships on a proposal to form a storm water management district, the Wood County engineer’s office is preparing to update the county commissioners this week on the proposal. Kevin Laughlin, storm water coordinator for the engineer’s office, is scheduled to present information about a management district format to the commissioners during their Sept. 1 meeting at 9:30 a.m. “We started going to trustees meetings, saying we wanted to get the conversation started in forming this district. Everything is preliminary right now. The first step is having stakeholder meetings and getting people to the table and saying, This is what we can do, what do we want to do, if anything?” Laughlin said. “Nothing is set in stone.” He made a presentation to the Lake Township trustees during their Aug. 18 meeting. Funding options for a district include per-parcel fees that are calculated to meet a base-line of services that would be provided. In Lucas County, for example, planners used a survey and aerial photography and determined a typical residential property contains about 5,500 square feet of hard surface area such as pavements, roofs and others that prevent rain water from soaking into the soil. That figure is called the equivalent residential unit, or ERU. While the county assesses a flat fee for single- and two-family residential property and agricultural land and certain condominium properties, the ERU was used to set comparable fees for commercial and other non-residential properties. The fees are assessed on properties with buildings. “With a sanitary sewer system with potable water there are meters,” Laughlin said. “They can know how much is being used by a particular land owner. You don’t have that ability with storm sewers. Impervious surfaces create run-offs and run-offs go into the storm sewers. So it’s a way of establishing a user fee for storm sewers.” Lake, Middleton and Perrysburg townships are obligated to meet a mandate of the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency because the Clean Water Act stipulates they fall under what is called a regulated small MS-4, a municipal separate storm water system. The three townships are co-permitees with the county engineer’s office under National Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit regulations. One advantage of establishing a storm

water district is the costs of meeting permit regulations can be defrayed, Laughlin said, adding permit rules include requirements for informing the public of storm water issues, construction site run-off control, pollution prevention, illicit discharge detection/elimination and others. The county engineer’s office coordinates the NPDES program for the townships and county commissioners.

The Northwestern Water and Sewer District will be flushing and testing fire hydrants Aug. 31 through Oct. 2. Testing will be performed in the area of Lake Township (served by Oregon water), parts of Northwood and the Village of Millbury. This area is bounded by the Wood County line to the north and east; Drouillard Road and I-280 to the west and south to the Village of Millbury at SR 795. Testing will be performed between the hours of 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Rust-removing chemicals are available at the district’s office, 12560 Middleton Pike, Bowling Green.

After a recent session, the Ottawa County Grand Jury indicted Stanley Mikolajczyk on one count of aggravated burglary, a felony of the first degree. The charges follow an incident where Mikolajczyk, 45, reportedly assaulted the occupant of a Genoa residence. Also indicted were: • Bradley Weinheimer, charged with felony counts of harassment with bodily substances and vandalism, along with misdemeanor counts of inducing panic, aggravated menacing and criminal damaging. According to Port Clinton Police, Weinheimer was confronted by officers Aug. 5 following reports that he was brandishing a knife at Lakeview Estates. • Melissa Decker, 40, and Dustin Clefford, 19, were each charged with one count of failure to appear, a felony of the fourth degree, after reportedly failing to attend hearings on their respective pending criminal cases. Warrants were issued for all defendants, who are currently being held in the Ottawa County Detention Facility.

Northwood

City razes dilapidated station By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The city of Northwood has torn down the former A & P gas station at 4433 Woodville Road. The station, marked by rust and overgrown weeds, had become an eyesore to the city. It was deteriorated and endangered the health and safety of the general public. “We tore the infrastructure down. We haven’t touched the tanks,” said City Administrator Bob Anderson. It cost nearly $10,000 to raze the canopy and other parts of the property, said Anderson. Last year, the city sent a nuisance abatement order by certified mail to the owner of the property, Millennium Properties and Holdings LLC, 35401 Grant Road, Romulus, Michigan, in an attempt to clean up the site, but did not get any response. Earlier this summer, the county issued a tax foreclosure action on the gas station. The Wood County Court of Common Pleas had inquired as to whether the city would be interested in the property. City Law Director Brian Ballenger said Northwood would probably have to assume back taxes and pay for removal of the fuel tanks if the city took over the property. “The tanks are still in the ground,” said Ballenger at a recent council meeting. The estimated costs to remove them would be between $3,000 to $4,000 per tank, and more if they are leaking, he added. Back property taxes total $26,000, said Ballenger. Anderson believes a sheriff’s sale of the property is the next step. “If someone buys it, it will be offered for what the back taxes are on the property.

That will be kind of expensive, so I doubt anyone will buy it at a sheriff’s sale,” he said. “It’s also possible to have an auditor’s sale, which starts at zero. After that, it will be forefeited. We’ll probably be asked if the city wants it. But it’s not worth anything because the tanks are still in the ground, and that’s a liability. If we don’t want it, probably the state will end up with it.” A Brownfields grant paid for an EPA assessment of the site to determine potential hazards, according to Anderson. The assessment showed that the tanks were leaking a small amount of fuel. “You have to consider there’s no groundwater source there where anyone gets their drinking from, so it’s not that bad,” he said. “If someone bought it and did something with the property besides making a parking lot out of it, they would be forced to clean it up. That’s why I don’t think anyone will buy it.” If the state ends up with the property, he doubts the tanks would be removed. “They will not clean it up. There’s so many of these small gas stations they have ended up with through forefeiture. I doubt they have ever taken a tank out. It would be prohibitively expensive for them to clean them all up,” said Anderson. “I don’t know if it’s a viable piece of property,” said Anderson. “There’s interest in properties that are well maintained, but I don’t think it would ever be economically feasible to be utilized.” Councilman Randy Kozina said the owner of the gas station has abandoned 250 stations throughout Ohio and Michigan. The Northeast Ohio Media Group in 2012 reported that Millennium Property Holdings owns 30 gas stations in Ohio and has owed back taxes and liens on numerous properties while dealing with bankruptcy.

Fireworks to fill nighttime sky In keeping with tradition, fireworks will fill the nighttime sky the Sunday night before Labor Day in Elmore beginning at dusk on Sept. 6 at Well Park. This year’s fireworks will be the first year for the Pete Willet Memorial Fireworks, named in honor of the lifelong Elmore resident who spent nearly his entire life entertaining area residents with his spectacular fireworks displays. Fireworks were a passion for Willett from a very early age. As a child, he would help his father and uncle as they prepared to entertain during the annual 4th of July celebrations, which they held every year beginning in 1929 at the corner of state routes 51 and 105 along the Portage River. The notoriety of his displays became more widespread and Willett decided to move his fireworks show and displays to Sugar Creek Golf Course so even more peo-

ple could enjoy them. Although donations were accepted, he funded his displays almost entirely by himself. Word of his artistry spread and soon he was doing fireworks displays in neighboring communities. Of course, he even put on displays at his daughters’ weddings. Eventually, his Elmore shows moved to the Machining Technology property. A fireworks accident in 1999 put him on the sidelines but his passion for fireworks remained until his death in 2012. This year’s “Night Before Labor Day Celebration” will begin at Well Park with food and beverages at 5 p.m. Bands will start at 5:30 p.m. with an easy listening performance by Sarabande followed by Razz and Sonzz, performance from 8-11 p.m.

Last ball game for vintage team The Spiegel Grove Squires, a local 1860s base ball team, will have its last home game of the season at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 30 at Spiegel Grove at the Hayes Presidential Center in Fremont. The Squires will take on the Wyandotte Stars of Wyandotte, Michigan, on the lawn behind the rose garden of the Hayes Home. Admission is free. Members of the Squires are volunteers who have studied and learned the methods

of play used in the 1860s, including playing bare-handed and using a bat that looks like a broom handle. “Ballists,” the term for players, wear period-style uniforms and adopt the language of 19th-Century base ball during their “matches.” The Squires will play Sept. 20 at the Tiffin-Seneca Heritage Festival Tournament and on Oct. 3 at the Hayes Presidential Center Civil War encampment.

How many of us live in prisons of our own making? If you feel constrained by the circumstances of your life and yet those circumstances are largely your own creations, then you have indeed built yourself a prison. Henry David Thoreau writes about those who have “forged their own golden or silver fetters,�accumulating wealth and property to the point where they are literally enslaved to it. He reminds us that “A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.� And a man is free in the same proportion. The ultimate freedom is to have the liberty of mind and spirit to do as one would choose, free of duress or external control. Most adults live life free of external control, and

yet we feel constrained by the circumstances of our lives. We must toil and work like slaves because we have allowed materialism to become our master. We are slaves to our appetites and desires because we have allowed hedonism to become our master. And we are imprisoned by our own minds because we fail to see that there are other ways to think and live. The Sufi poet Rumi asks “Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open?� The answer can only be that it is a prison of our own choosing. “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.� Galatians 5:1

Alcohol a possible factor in fatal quarry crash

2nd bid date set for senior center improvements

By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com

Alcohol and emotions may have been factors in the death of a Woodville man when a car plunged into a quarry early Saturday morning (Aug. 22), according to the survivor’s story. Jason Clere, 32, was pulled from the overturned submerged 2004 Mercury Sable LS by members of the Ottawa County Underwater Recovery Team after the crash in a quarry near the village limits of Rocky Ridge. Mid-County EMS transported him to Magruder Hospital where he was pronounced dead. “His car veered off the road. There’s a group of trees there. You wouldn’t know the quarry was there unless you already knew about it,” said Ottawa County Sheriff Steve Levorchick. The car’s passenger, Amy Tingley, of Rocky Ridge, swam to safety and was later treated at Magruder Hospital. The sheriff and other authorities stayed at the scene until nearly 5 a.m. investigating the crash that happened shortly before 1 a.m. Clere and Tingley were at Limestone Tavern where Clere had drank beer and a few shots of tequila, according to her witness statement. The two left the bar and stopped by his parents’ home in Rocky Ridge. Clere was visibly upset as the two departed and headed down Rocky Ridge Road, the site of the crash, Tingley wrote. As they traveled southbound, the car crossed the railroad tracks and Clere lost control of the vehicle, according to the sheriff’s office report. The car veered off the road into a line of trees. It continued on, hit a boulder, ran into some more trees then flipped onto its top as it skidded into the nearby water, the deputies reconstructing the accident stated. As they skidded out of control, Tingley said she tried to grab the wheel and regain control. That’s the last thing she remembered before hitting the water. Somehow she got out, swam to safety and stumbled to the road. There, another resident from Rocky Ridge passing by found her and called 9-11 for help. The car Clere was driving belonged to another person, according to the report.

“Experience Ottawa County” The Ottawa County Improvement Corporation (OCIC) held its annual “Experience Ottawa County” last week at The Keys on Put-in-Bay. The event brought local business leaders, community leaders, elected officials, and prospective business clients together to demonstrate that Ottawa County is an advantageous location to expand existing and relocate new business.

The right thing The McDonald’s Co-Op of Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan collectively donated more than 5,000 backpacks for local schoolchildren throughout the month of August. “This effort is part of McDonald’s continued commitment to our local community,” stated Tim Sloan, the organization’s president. “We know that back-to-school time can be stressful for many families in our area.”

An improving economy may be making it harder for Ottawa County officials to get improvements at the Genoa Senior Center completed. After not receiving any contract bids on Aug. 18, the county commissioners have scheduled a second bid opening date for a project to upgrade the building that houses the senior center. The commissioners recently approved an opening date of Sept. 15 at 2 p.m. Mark Messa, director of the Regional Planning Commission, recommended the second bid opening. “Everybody’s busy right now,” Messa said Thursday. “The (county) engineer’s office, private contractors are all having trouble getting projects bid out because a lot of the local contractors that do these smaller jobs are absolutely slammed.” The county and Village of Genoa have secured Community Development Block Grant funding for the project. The fund application, which was submitted to the Ohio Development Services Agency last year, includes a request for $59,100 for the improvements. Kevin Gladden, village administrator, said the funds would be used to upgrade windows, install a new rear door, tuckpointing, painting and roof repairs. “I’m still hoping to get the project wrapped up by the end of the year,” Messa said. “If we can get a qualifying bid by the middle of the month I’m hoping to have contracts awarded by the end of the month and we’ll move from there.” CDBG projects estimated to cost more than $50,000 require sealed bids, he said. CDBG funds have also been used in prior years for curb ramps and improvements to the front half of the building, which is located at 514 Main Street in half of a former hardware store. Programs are open to Ottawa County seniors.

Arrangements were handled by WitzlerShank Funeral Home, 222 E. South Boundary Street, Perrysburg, OH. Interment was at St. Rose Cemetery. Memorial contributions in Dan's name can be made to Hospice of Northwest Ohio, 30000 E. River Road, Perrysburg or The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Northern Ohio Chapter, rd 5700 Brecksville Road, 3 Floor, Independence, Ohio 44131.

Dorothy Irene Dayton, 103 years old, passed away on August 26, 2015 at Hospice of Northwest Ohio, Perrysburg. She was born in Detroit, Michigan on January 13, 1912 to Edward and Bertha (Burwell) DeLisle. Dorothy was a member of the O.E.S. Palestine Chapter 51. Her favorite pastimes were knitting, fishing, boating, going to their cottage and traveling. She traveled all the lower United States including Hawaii.

Two new vehicles

Oregon buys police SUVs By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon City Council last week approved the purchase of two 2016 Ford Utility Police Interceptor vehicles from Mathews Ford for the Police Division to replace two vehicles damaged by the weather this summer. Due to the recent flooding, an insurance settlement of $21,955.50 was accepted on the total loss of two Ford Focus police vehicles, according to Mayor Mike Seferian. “We lost two vehicles in the flood,� he said. “These will replace those vehicles.� The police division will continue to replace its fleet with SUVs, he added. Mathews Ford’s quote for the two vehicles was $63,640, reduced to a final cost of $51,660 due to an $11,980 credit. Although Lebanon Ford, of Lebanon, Ohio, provided a quote $1,000 cheaper at $50,666, council preferred doing business with the local vendor. “They will be unmarked vehicles. But they are just black SUVs like we have been currently buying for the road patrol vehicles,� said Seferian. Council has long debated whether the city should give preference to local vendors whose bids are higher than the lowest bid if the amounts are close. Ohio law allows it if there is a difference of 5 percent or less in the bids, City Administrator Michael Beazley said earlier this year when some

on council wanted to give preference to a local vendor. Councilman Jerry Peach said the quotes of Mathews and Lebanon were about the same after factoring in the expense of transporting the vehicles to Oregon. “The difference, which is less than $1,000, in favor of the Lebanon dealership would not outweigh the expense of sending three officers to Lebanon to obtain those cars,� said Peach. Councilman James Seaman, who for years has favored awarding city business to local vendors whose bids may be higher than out of town merchants, said he was pleased that Mathews Ford got the contract. “I really feel it’s good business with the city if we can do our purchasing locally,� said Seaman. “And as Mr. Peach indicated, the extra cost of going to Lebanon would be more expensive. I’m just happy we can make local purchases - as we are - from our local Ford dealer here in Oregon.� Councilman Tim Zale, a retired Oregon police officer who is chairman of the Safety Committee, said the new vehicles will be the same type of vehicles the road patrol is using currently. “They will be used by the assistant chief and the chief himself for city business. They will probably get very few miles on them,� said Zale. “And we’ll have them available to readily switch out to a patrol vehicle with probably less work should that need arise. I also agree, if you look at the price difference, it makes perfect sense to stay locally with Mathews Ford.�

McPherson’s spaghetti benefit A spaghetti dinner to benefit Mike McPherson will be held Saturday, Aug. 29 from 4-7 p.m. in the Oregon Community Room, 5330 Seaman Rd., Oregon. McPherson, who has worked at in the maintenance department at Heartland for more than 14 years, was involved in a motorcycle accident on May 7.

Sidewalk repair

Oregon levies special assessments Oregon City Council on Monday approved levying special assessments for the repair and reconstruction of certain sidewalks last year. The special assessments for the cost and expense of the repair and reconstruction of sidewalks in designated areas in Oregon total $23,749.88. Mayor Mike Seferian said property owners had a limited time to pay for the repairs. “If it’s not made within a certain time, then we assess the property,� he said. The special assessment against each lot or parcel was payable in full within 60 days after passage of an ordinance on the repair and reconstruction of sidewalks last July 28. Property owners had the option to pay in four semi-annual installments with an interest rate of 3.5 percent per year. Special assessments remaining unpaid are placed on the tax duplicate and collected as real estate taxes are collected. Seferian said property owners had the option of repairing the sidewalks themselves. If they did not, the city makes the repairs and bills them. Councilman Tim Zale said he noticed some sidewalks that were repaired were much more expensive than others, though the properties didn’t seem larger. “They’re not large properties compared

to others. In these cases, was the cement in such bad shape that we had to replace the whole thing?� asked Zale. Public Service Director Paul Roman said costs were higher than in previous years of the sidewalk repair program because there were no alternate bids for pressure grouting. Grout can be injected to raise concrete sidewalk slabs back to their original position. It is typically less costly than replacement, but is only effective on sunken sidewalks. It is a good alternative when the sidewalk concrete is in satisfactory condition with no cracks or structural defects. “I know in previous years we had alternate bids to actually use pressure grout and lift sidewalks,� said Roman. “In 2014, the people who do the pressure grouting didn’t even bid. For the 2014 year, it was just higher costs. So it’s a little bit higher than in previous years. I know to get bids on the grouting, a lot of times it’s half the cost when you go out and get it on your own. But in a year or two it settles by an inch. “Normally, I tell people to get a warranty for at least two to three years because it’s going to settle out. Nonetheless, we’ve asked for alternate bids to do it. But in 2014, nobody actually bid it for the pressure grout. It was all traditional replacement. I think the lesson learned, obviously, is if people want to do it on their own, it’s a little bit of a hassle and time spent to do it. But traditionally, in years past, you get a better price with a large group and doing it through the city. Unfortunately, I don’t think that this was necessarily the case.�

Penta 50th anniversary celebration set for September 13 The community is invited to a celebration of Penta Career Center’s 50th anniversary Sunday, Sept. 13 from 2-4 p.m. Penta is located at 9301 Buck Rd, Perrysburg Township. The celebration will include an open house and cake reception. Various historical items will be on display during the event including a 1965 Ford F-100 pick-up truck that was restored by Penta students and staff. Penta’s career-technical labs and classrooms will also be open to visitors. Prior to the community celebration, a 50th Anniversary program will take place at 1 p.m. inside the Susor auditorium for special guests, Penta staff and students. Nearly 50 years ago on Sept. 7, 1965, Penta-County Vocational School opened in Perrysburg Township to serve students from 17 area school districts. The school occupied the former Rossford Ordnance Depot on Oregon Road for 43 years. When it first opened, Penta was known as the first multi-county vocational school in the nation. Between 1966 and 1972, Penta also offered technical college courses. In 2008, Penta opened its new 522,000 square foot facility on Buck Road. The new facility was made possible through a one mill permanent improvement levy that was passed by voters in 2003. Vocational education and Penta have evolved significantly in 50 years. The term vocational training is now referred to as career and technical education and the school is now called Penta Career Center. An estimated 30,000 people have completed training at Penta high school or adult education program since 1965. Penta currently serves high school students in 16 member school districts. The school offers 30 career-technical programs for high school students in areas such as health, construction, manufacturing, business, agriculture, transportation, and human services.

Fall class sessions begin Sept. 13 and Oct. 18. All classes and workshops are related to works of art in the museum’s collection and special exhibitions.

It’s been a year since God called you home. On the evening of August 29, with all the family close by, you left. Your granddaughter, Deanna, was holding your hand and I was sitting next to you. Who knew that morning you had “seen� your last “sunset� and your final evening. Everyone’s hearts broke that night. I miss “everything� about you, except the disease that took you. Your beautiful smile is etched in all of our minds, your sweet, low, tender voice...if only we could hear. I wish we could eat, just one more time together, but it would never be enough. You were loved by all who met you. You weren’t just my mom, you were my best friend and a wonderful, caring mother; you were the “Best.� There isn’t a day goes by that you’re not on my mind. I even dream about you! My heart is broken, but one day we will meet again and this time we will never have to leave each other again.

What is your ideal ice cream concoction?

Are you prepared for another water crisis this summer if there is an algal bloom that shuts down the water supply? Yes, I have bottles of water in reserve. No. I think the city will be able to treat it without shutting down the water supply. No. I’m taking my chances. Jordan Meek Genoa “Medium Peanut Butter Cup Flurry with chocolate ice cream, whip cream, peanuts and peanut butter syrup.”

Dean Kesling Genoa “An Oreo Mud Pie in a ſve gallon bucket with a scoop shovel! It has chewy brownie chunks, chocolate fudge and crushed oreos in chocolate ice cream.”

Clean the mess up To the editor: A 3.95-mill levy is being voted on in November in the Oregon School District. This levy is supposed to cover elementary art, fitness club, sixth-grade camp, trip to Washington D.C., musicals, athletics and marching band. If so, why does the band have fruit sales, spaghetti dinners, cake sales and other odd sales? In the Oregon School District, there are 15,579 registered voters, according to the Lucas County Board of Elections. There are 12,224 taxable parcels in the district, according to the county auditor, a difference of 3,335, lest we forget, non-voting taxpaying homeowners. In Oregon City Schools, there are 21 administrators, 256 certified teachers and 175 non-certified employees – a total of 452. How many of these employees can vote on their own levy? How many employees’ children are students in the school system? In the 2014 school year, there were

3,656 students in the system. It’s said about half use the extracurricular programs – that’s hard to believe. Now let’s see who is cutting the pie. Where does the money actually go? Now that the board of education and administration has told you what they want you to know, have you got answers to what you want to know? If an employee speaks or acts against the school system, he or she can be fired for just cause or insubordination. They tried it on me. When the administrators received their raises, only one gave his back. What about the others? Come on…show the public where the monies go. Show us the pie. While working for the schools, I was told by an administrator I was going to get

a 3 percent raise. I told him his 3 percent is a lot bigger than mine. If property taxes are not supposed to be used for school support, then why are we still paying them?

Praise for park To the editor: Congratulations are in order. Many times I give my opinion and they may have seemed critical. But I need to apologize for comments I made concerning Pearson Metropark. A

few years ago, it seemed to me that park workers were destroying grasslands and protective places for small and large game to hide and rest – safe from possible dangers. Driving through the park now, I see the results of their labors. Beautiful, fantastic and way beyond my imagination is how I would describe what I see driving through the park. The beautiful wild flowers are breathtaking. Larry Erard Oregon.

Pitfalls of pride: Treat others with courtesy, dignity and respect You should lead a life you can be proud of. This includes how you treat others and how you treat yourself, along with the examples you set. You can also be proud of accomplishments, proud of solving problems, or of overcoming obstacles. Other aspects worthy of pride include self-reliance and a standard of excellence. Pride is an internal state of contentment. Pride is a feeling you have. It’s not something you show off to impress others. Pride is not something you laud over others. True pride is not advertised. You don’t need to show off to others what you have done or how much you have. The pitfalls of pride begin with arrogance. When pride leads to being full of yourself, it becomes a negative. Pride does not make you better than someone else. Pride does not confer more privilege or status. All people are equal. Thinking you know what is best for others is another pitfall. Someone with this frame of mind seeks to impose their beliefs and values. They think they have all of the

PRESS The

Dare to Live by Bryan Golden answers everyone else needs. Just because you may have discovered a strategy for success which works for you does not mean it is appropriate for someone else. If what you are doing works well, the example you set will speak for itself. Other people will decide for themselves whether or not they want to follow your lead. Believing that you are in a position to change others is also a pitfall of pride. You cannot change anyone. It’s up to each individual to decide whether or not they want to change. If they do, it’s up to them to decide what changes to implement. Being proud of who you are and what you have accomplished does not put you

in a position to judge others. Each person is responsible for their own life as well as the ensuing results. There is a cause and effect relationship between behavior and outcome. Each person must find their own way. A bird experiences many benefits being able to fly. Yet, it is pointless for a bird to attempt to convince a fish that soaring has many advantages over swimming. All you can determine is what strategies work for you. Your experience does not provide you with an obligation to provide answers for others. However, sharing your experience with others can be helpful if you are asked for advice. One of the most potent forms of education is learning from the success and failure of others. This is why experience is not the best teacher, someone else’s experience is. Always be willing to assist others with advice when asked. Never be condescending.

and this is what didn’t.” Actually, more is learned from failed attempts than when things go as planned. This is why the best sailors are those who have the most experience with adverse conditions. Pride becomes arrogance when you believe you have all the answers. You then proceed to tell other people what action is necessary for them to solve their problems. Pride remains a positive when it is combined with humility. It’s easy to avoid the pitfalls of pride. Have a standard of excellence. Strive to behave in a manner you are proud of. Treat others with courtesy, dignity, and respect. When asked, share your experiences in order to be of assistance. Live and let live.

Elevator project still short, but the show must go on Carol Bailey knows her audience so, despite being $31,000 short of a $400,000 goal, The Pemberville Freedom Area Historical Society broke ground last week on its elevator project at The Pemberville Opera House. Bailey faced a deadline to start construction or lose a $220,000 state grant. Winter also forced her hand as the brick and mortar project would be difficult and more expensive to finish in freezing weather. A December completion date is the target. “Once people see things moving, they will contribute,” she said, confidently. That audience will see activity at the Opera House Saturday, Sept. 5 when Darryl Van Leer kicks off the 2015-2016 Live in the House Concert Series with a Las Vegas style performance in which he transforms himself into “Soulful Legends” Ray Charles, Little Richard, Elton John, Sam Cooke, Muddy Waters and Jerry Lee Lewis among others. Bailey says the concerts appeal to “What I most kindly call the blue hair set,” a moniker for the retired crowd. The music is mostly what The Greatest Generation listened to and the Baby Boomers grew up with, either created by their peers, or overheard when their parents played their records. Styles range from jazz, to Big Band to The Oldies. Mix in a little bluegrass and country classics and Bailey has touched most of her bases. Here’s the line up: Sept 5: Darryl Van Leer—This actor/ singer has appeared in movies and on television shows such as One Tree Hill. He uses elaborate costumes to portray some of the most electrifying performers of all time; Oct 3: Matt Walch—This crooner sings the Big Band standards made famous by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett and Nat King Cole, among others. He has opened for the current editions of the Glenn Miller Orchestra and the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra;

Celestial Ball rivals have habit of getting physical By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Oak Harbor-Genoa is one of the area’s great football rivalries. If either team wins the annual game three years in a row, it is rewarded with the coveted Celestial Ball, which has found its way to either end of Route 163 during its long run. The game features two teams with rich tradition and history who play hard-nosed, smash-mouth football and represent their blue-collar communities. It’s also featured some of the area’s great coaches roaming the sidelines, like Gary Quisno, Mike Vicars, Tim Spiess, Jim Firestone and John Boles, among others. Genoa’s second-year coach, Paul Patterson, who led the Comets to the playoffs in his first season, is very aware of what the game means to prep football fans in Ottawa County. “I think because of how long this rivalry has been going on and how long it goes back, it affects the old-timers in the community plus the young people. It’s the rivalry in both communities that brings all the people together in that sense,” Patterson said. “It’s physical, blue-collar football in two blue-collar communities. It’s about everybody getting pumped up. It brings the old and the new, friends, so many relationships between family members in the two communities,” added Patterson, who has won three state championships, two as a coach at Central Catholic, and another as a player at Canton Central Catholic. Eighth-year Oak Harbor coach Mike May also has gotten a chance to gain an appreciation for the rivalry throughout his time coaching at Oak Harbor. “The long history of this rivalry makes it special for the kids and the communities,” May said. Genoa owns the Celestial Ball now after winning seven straight games over the Rockets, though Oak Harbor has come close in three of those defeats. In addition to last year’s 33-25 loss, the Rockets fought valiantly before losing two years before, 43-21, trailing by just a touchdown midway thru the third quarter, and nearly won two years before that in a 15-7 loss. Blue collar offense Both teams have or currently run the Wing-T offense, something that only enhances the rivalry and its blue-collar roots, although it looks like that will change

Genoa second-year coach Paul Patterson says his line is probably the most experienced of any group he is working with on this year's team. Left to right are sophomore Hunter Simmons, senior Joey McClear, senior Dylon Witt, junior Matt Herrick, senior Alex Hodulik, senior Andrew Drummond and senior Ethan Roberts. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton/HEHphotos.smugmug.com) this year for Genoa. Not for Coach Mike May’s Rockets — for him, some kind of power running game is here to stay, and Patterson’s team will not divert far from it, even though the Comets are adding some spread concepts into their playbook. “The wing-T is a blue collar offense,” Patterson said. “We’re a primary running football team and a lot of our things are dependent on how the guys play up front.” Under Vicars and Spiess, the Comets established one of the state’s best programs with the wing-T, and May, Oak Harbor’s eighth-year coach, installed the same offense last year after running the I-formation during his first six years at the helm. The Rockets’ have plenty of motivation, since the last time they defeated the Comets was eight years ago. The Rockets nearly got over the hump and defeated the Comets last year, falling 33-25 in a game that took place over two days because of the weather. Oak Harbor hurt itself with turnovers, but nearly overcame them before falling short. Kalob Vargas’ three-yard touchdown reception from Andre Ramsey with 1:06 remaining accounted for the final score before Genoa’s Noah Goodrich recovered an onside kick. Comet running back Jake Wojciechowski battled a dislocated thumb and rushed for 150 yards, just ahead of teammate Nick Wolfe, who had 142 rushing yards. The game saw Genoa take an early 7-0 lead after Wojciechowski scored on a 57-yard run, only to see the Rockets

battle back on a number of occasions, only to be deterred each time by the Comets. Genoa would go on to finish 8-3 and made the playoffs for the eighth consecutive season before falling in heartbreaking fashion, 9-7, in the first round of the Division IV playoffs. Had the Comets won that playoff game, some believe they would’ve advanced all the way to the state’s final four. The Rockets, meanwhile, played a very difficult schedule and struggled to a 3-7 record. This year’s Genoa club is without Wojciechowski and Wolfe, as well as nine other first team All-Northern Buckeye Conference selections. They are young and inexperienced, which Patterson is using as motivation to inspire his club to etch their name into the lore of the rivalry. “The good thing about our group is we are so young, these guys didn’t have ma-

jor roles, so this is their time to step into this rivalry. This is how we’re going to play this — you guys are the next ones up to continue winning this rivalry for this program,” Patterson said. “It’s that ‘next man up’ mentality that we are going to stress. It’s our time to defend and keep the trophy over at Genoa.” More than ever this year, May believes the Rockets must establish the run if they are to have a chance at defeating the Comets. “We need to establish our running game on offense,” he said. “The players are more comfortable this year going into the season with the offense. They are aware of our strong tradition of wing-T football here at Oak Harbor and excited about re-establishing that tradition.” May says his team has had three productive scrimmages in the preseason. Oak Harbor’s wing-T attack will feature Vargas, Rhett Petersen, Noah Harder and Andrew Heberling in the backfield, and quarterback Jeff Winterfield will get his chances to air it out via the play-action. If those five players can put up good numbers this season, the Rockets will likely rebound and have a successful season. In addition to facing the Comets, Oak Harbor traveled to face Ottawa-Glandorf Friday and will play Eastwood and Fremont St. Joseph in non-conference action. Genoa has a difficult schedule as well, leading off by hosting Cleveland Villa Angela-St. Joseph and facing Oak Harbor and then Perkins. Both Perkins and VASJ qualified for the playoffs last season.

The Press Box Gyori part of Owens’ deep freshman class Sophomore right side hitter Taylor Purcell (Bedford, Mich.) knows this year’s Owens Community College volleyball team has potential, and the goal is a national championship. “There are more girls on the team this year, so it’s definitely a lot more competitive on the court and you can see it in practice,” Purcell said. “Everybody wants to earn their position, and it’s just going to help us so much more in getting to nationals.” A strong freshman class will help Owens field a deep team this year. Defensive specialist Brooke Gyori (Clay), the sister of former Owens volleyball player Kristen Gyori (2007-08), is part of that class that has high hopes. After Owens’ first four matches (3-1), Gyori already has teamhighs in digs (55) and aces (11). This year, Coach Sonny Lewis is entering his 15th season at Owens with a team that will be one of the most talented of his tenure. Not only does he return five sophomores, but he adds an eight-player freshman class that gives Owens one of its tallest teams in program history. “They’re learning. They’re picking up the changes we want them to. We had a scrimmage and we played better and better and better as the scrimmage went on. We’re looking for an outstanding season this year,” Lewis said. Owens, ranked ninth, is the top ranked team out of Region XII. Defending Region XII champion Columbus State (OH) Community College is No. 10, Grand Rapids (MI) Community College is No. 16, and Oakland (MI) Community College is ranked No. 18.

In the postseason, the team lost a key offensive player in Macy Reigelsperger (Coldwater) to an injury in the Region XII District E tournament before falling to No. 6 Columbus State CC in the loser’s bracket finals.

Despite coaching change, Clay soccer reloads with talent By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Things could have been a lot worse for Don Hess in this, his first season as the head varsity girls’ soccer coach at Clay. Hess, the Eagles’ junior varsity and varsity assistant coach for the past seven years, inherited a loaded squad that returns its top five scorers from last year’s fourthranked (Division I) team. Four seniors, who provided solid leadership, must be replaced but the Eagles have a squad that has enough talent and experience to defend last year’s Three Rivers Athletic Conference title. Clay finished 15-1-2 in 2014, with it’s only loss coming against conference rival Notre Dame Academy, 2-1, in the district semifinals. Hess’s message to the team on the first day of practice on Aug. 1 was “we’re going to build on last year.” Clay has 36 players in the program this season and returns 13 letter winners and seven starters. “We’re just trying to get into the conversation of being one of best D-I teams in northwest Ohio,” Hess said. “We moved into that conversation last year. Instead of us being the hunter, now we’re the hunted. I think (the players) like that. It’s a different world for us, but we’re striving to be one of the best teams in northwest Ohio.” The Eagles kicked off this season with a 3-0 win at Avon Lake on Aug. 21. Junior striker Karleigh Clere and junior midfielder/striker Jena Kulwicki both had goals, on assists from sophomores Marissa Brezvai and Hailey Clere. Avon Lake scored an own goal. Karleigh Clere led the team in scoring a year ago, with 11 goals and 21 assists. She was named the TRAC Player of the Year and earned first-team All-Ohio honors. “She is very technically sound and she draws a lot of attention from the defense,” Hess said. “She’s very smart. All she needs is a little window and she’s taking a shot.

Clay junior fullback Hanna Gerrard heads downfield with the soccer ball in the Eagles' game at Anthony Wayne last week. (Press photo by John Pollock/www. pollock. smugmug. com) She takes most of our corner kicks. She’ll make the right play. I expect her to lead us in scoring.” Junior striker Alex Vartorella contributed 13 goals and six assists last year and will be joined again in the starting lineup by junior midfielder Sydney Hess (9 goals, 4 assists) and junior fullback Sami

Heintschel (5 goals, 8 assists). “We’re reloading and, hopefully, picking up where we left off,” Coach Hess said. “Alex gets the ball in front of her, she’s tough to stop. She finds a way to put the ball in the net. She’s a threat because she’s fast.” Sydney Hess earned first-team All-

TRAC and second-team all-district last season, while Heintschel earned first-team honors in the conference and district. “Sydney had a great season with scoring and getting production on the outside,” coach Hess said. “She was in the right place at the right time most of the season and cashed in on her opportunities. She’s always making the simple, right play. Sami is the backbone of our back line as a defender. She just has a true knack for knowing where the ball is going to be.” Junior Olivia Hornyak had 76 saves and was named the TRAC’s top keeper last year. She helped Clay post 10 shutouts and outscore opponents 58-10. “We’re expecting Olivia to duplicate last year,” coach Hess said. “When she shows up and is mentally locked in, she can make saves a lot of keepers can’t make. She’s quick and athletic and has a knack for making those big saves.” Other starters this season include sophomore center midfielder Reagan Clark, a first-team all-conference and second team all-district selection, junior fullback Hannah Jehany, Hailey Clere, junior midfielder Marisa Vislay, junior fullback Hanna Gerrard and freshman fullback Ashley Vartorella. “Our strengths are speed and ball possession,” coach Hess said. “Our possession game has gotten a little better, being able to possess the ball from the back line going forward. The girls know what success is. A lot of them are committed all year long to playing good club level soccer.” Coach Hess said winning the TRAC title again this season could prove to be more difficult than last year. “Our goal is to defend the league championship, but it’s going to be tough because St. Ursula has 15 letter winners back,” he said. “We’re going to have to go through St. Ursula and Notre Dame and Findlay to defend our title. One of our other goals is to win that district game. We need to be playing our best soccer in October if we expect to move forward in the tournament.”

Now announcing…my pick for Ohio State’s starting quarterback Ohio State’s quarterback J.T. Barrett’s first collegiate game was against Virginia Tech last year, and VT was the only team to beat the Buckeyes last year. After the game, many who were worried about Braxton Miller’s replacement had even greater concerns because of J.T Barrett’s play. I had a different take. I was at the game and saw things up close that led me to come away with a different conclusion. First, let’s look at last year’s team. It was very frustrating to see a pass defense that continued to play like they did the year before when they lost the Big Ten championship to Michigan State. He had also addressed it at the press conference after the 2014 spring game. Meyer addressed the need for improvement of the poor pass defense after the Virginia Tech game. The weakness also showed up in the opening win over Navy but then came Virginia Tech, and the weakness became even more obvious. Without trying to be brutal, all I can say is that VT’s staff outcoached Urban Meyer and his gang. Hard to believe but it’s true. OSU continued to play with their defense too deep and gave away too many short passes. The offense could not do enough to

In My Opinion by Harold Hamilton overcome this disadvantage. Fans walked away from the game thinking what are they going to do with the quarterback situation, but that wasn’t the biggest problem. What I saw in J. T. Barrett was quite different. The J.T. that I saw was aggressive, fast, a leader, a thinker and a tremendous athlete. I told anyone that would listen that J.T. Barrett had a ton of potential and OSU should concentrate on other areas for team building. Looking back, I felt Barrett would get better, but I never thought the team or Barrett would ever have the turnaround that they had. So after watching Barrett set record after record and even be in the Heisman Trophy discussion, isn’t it obvious that he should be the starter this year? Well not so fast, many say. Remember after his injury, his replacement, Cardale Jones, stepped in and beat the best teams in the country to give Ohio State the na-

tional championship. Jones has an arm like a cannon. In fact, but some say he throws the short passes too hard for his receivers to catch, on occasion. Jones does throw the long ball well enough to give his receivers extra time to “run to the ball.” Jone’s best feature, however, is when he runs on a broken play. It’s fantastic to see him put a shoulder into a linebacker and drive them back 5 or 10 yards. No question he has a ton of talent. At this year’s spring game press conference, Meyer said each quarterback candidate would be evaluated on multiple criteria and a spreadsheet kept over the summer. He said he needed this information to fairly determine the starter. It would not be a “gut feeling” decision. It should be obvious that using a technique such as this for evaluation pushes each candidate to work harder in all areas and maybe even to watch their behavior on campus and at off campus establishments and tattoo parlors. A pretty good lever don’t you think? My pick for starter is J.T. Barrett. The reasons are sound but seem to have been overlooked by many. Barrett has a season’s experience in which you could not have asked for any more from him. I think Barrett is smarter, faster, more athletic and

more dedicated than Jones. Remember, Barrett was third in line but was moved to second two days before Braxton Miller was hurt. The coaches saw something that they liked better than what Jones could produce, or could not produce. While Cardale Jones played his role in winning a national championship, I would bet that all of his team members stepped up a bit knowing he was green. The really great thing about it is no matter whom the choice is, the starter will be the best in the land. Should the starter get hurt again this year, which would seem to have about the same odds as the Cleveland Browns going to the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history, Ohio State’s backups are darned good, no matter who they are. Meyer said he will announce the starter at the beginning of the Virginia Tech game, 8 p.m., Labor Day. My pick is J.T. Barrett.
