Retaliation looms in meat labeling dispute

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A hearing set for Sept. 15-16 in Geneva, Switzerland will be the latest round of a dispute in which Canada and Mexico are challenging U.S. regulations for labeling the origin of certain meat products.

The World Trade Organization will conduct the arbitration hearing as Mexico and Canada inch closer to implementing retaliatory tariffs.

In June, Congress approved a bill to repeal country-of-origin labeling (COOL) requirements for beef, pork and chicken with many of the bill’s backers noting the U.S. had already lost disputes and appeals to the WTO. During deliberations on the bill, Congressman K. Michael Conway, (RTexas), a sponsor who chairs the House Agriculture Committee, said Canada and Mexico challenged the rule implementing COOL within months after the rule was published.

“In the fourth and final decision, released on May 18, the WTO rejected the United States’ argument and found that U.S. COOL requirements for beef and pork are unavoidably discriminatory,” he said, adding the WTO’s last ruling “kick-starts the process to determine the level of retaliatory

We don’t think Congress should be intimidated by other countries’ efforts to water down our labeling standards.

The East Toledo Senior Center will be the venue for a District 3 council candidates’ forum on September 9.

Four candidates will get the opportunity to present their views on political issues, and it’s a chance for voters to get their take on each candidate. The forum will begin at 6 p.m.

District 3 candidates (East Toledo and Old South End) are Democrat Peter Ujvagi, Republican Ernest D. McCarthy and independents Robert James Worthington, and Glen Cook. The primary will be Sept. 15 with the top two vote getters vying off in the general election on Nov. 3. The winner will replace Mike Craig, who is term-limited.

The forum will be facilitated by Press General Manager John Szozda and begins at 6 p.m. The Senior Center is at 1001 White Street, adjacent to Navarre Park between Navarre and Starr avenues.

Cook, a U.S. Army veteran, previously lived in the south side of Toledo and attended Libbey, but has lived in East Toledo 30 years, moving here after getting married.

From 2013 to present, he has been with JGM Valve in Commerce, Mich. He previously was director of business development for the State of Ohio, tasked to grow the industrial market in northern Ohio and southern Michigan.

“I feel I can represent Toledo and east side residents that feel as I do, that we need to work together to save our neighborhoods,” Cook said. “I was born here and at 73-years-old, I want this next generation to see a strong and decent Toledo.”

Cook graduated with a bachelor’s degree in education from the University of Toledo in 1970. He is a past board president of St. Peter and Paul Church and past board member of Lake Erie Academy School.

Activities include serving on the community advisory panel for the Toledo Refining Company, a member of the East Toledo Club, he is involved with One Voice East Toledo, is a block watch captain for

tariffs Canada and Mexico can impose.”

Congressman Collin Peterson, (D – Minnesota), a member of the committee, countered that the bill was being rushed through the House prematurely.

He said the Canadian claim it suffered $3 billion in economic losses due to COOL “is ridiculous and is based on unsubstantiated and not publicly available data.”

“U.S. studies, using U.S. Department of Agriculture data, have found little, if any economic harm,” he said.

Rep. Marcy Kaptur, (D – Ohio), also supported maintaining the labeling requirements.

“Current efforts in Congress to repeal country-of-origin labeling are simply veiled attempts to gut these laws for meat – for beef, for pork, for chicken, three arenas that are completely controlled by a few processing companies,” she said.

The measure passed in the House by a vote of 300 to 131 and a similar bill was introduced July 23 in the Senate by Pat Roberts, (R-Kansas), chairman of the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.

As of last week the bill was still pending in the Senate.

In late July, Senator Debbie Stabenow, (D – Michigan), and Senator John Hoeven, (R – North Dakota), introduced a bill to establish a voluntary labeling program with a “Product of the U.S.” label for beef, pork, chicken, and ground meat products that are from animals born, raised, and slaughtered in the United States.

Bi-partisan effort helped American tire workers

Retaliation looms (continued from front page)

By Senator Rob Portman

2>6C:42

“

...after months of fighting, American tire workers won their case and I'm told provisions of the Level Playing Field act helped...

“

Each year, Labor Day gives us a chance to recognize the achievements and contributions of workers to Ohio and our nation. Last month I had the opportunity to travel across Ohio on a jobs tour that took me over 3,000 miles through 22 different counties where I met with workers in factories, on farms, in a coal mine and in businesses large and small. As always, I was impressed at the determination, resolve and creativity of Ohio workers.

Some of those I have been working with are in the tire and rubber industry, which has a very proud history in our state.

For more than 100 years, generations of Ohio workers have not only manufactured tires that drive America, but they have also been important engines to our local economy. If we want to keep this industry competitive and grow the number of good paying manufacturing jobs in our state then we must make sure they are competing on a level playing field in the international marketplace.

Unfortunately, some of our foreign competitors skirt the rules when it comes to our trade laws and give themselves an unfair advantage. This has a dangerous impact on American companies and our workers. Recently, $2.6 billion worth of Chinese tires were imported to the United States with more than three dozen illegal subsidy programs, according to international standards. To compound the problem, it appears that many of these tires were sold below the market value; a practice called “dumping,” that can lead to lost jobs for tire workers.

On several occasions I have been honored to meet with workers of Cooper Tire, represented by USW Local 207L. At the Cooper 100th anniversary party last year I sat with many of them to discuss the challenges they face as a company, particularly from unfairly traded imports. I followed up with the union’s leadership earlier this year.

From my meetings with them and my own research, one thing was clear.

Although these workers are not afraid to compete with imports from China, or any

other country, they were not competing on a level playing field as it related to Chinese tires. With their hard work and ingenuity, they can go toe to toe with any foreign competitor who plays by the rules but not with imports that are sold below their cost, or dumped, or with imports that are unfairly subsidized by a foreign government.

Fortunately, I was able to assist with a trade enforcement case to protect hundreds of Ohio jobs that were threatened by illegal Chinese imports. I consistently raised concerns to members of the Obama administration and presented testimony to the International Trade Commission (ITC), the governing body that determines these decisions. It was important to investigate what China was doing and I was proud to help provide a voice to urge the Administration to make this a top priority.

In addition, in a bi-partisan effort, I worked very closely with Democrat Senator Sherrod Brown and Ohio manufacturers to pass important legislation titled the

U.S. Senator Rob Portman Leveling the Playing Field Act, which was signed into law by the president. Our bill allows workers, like these tire manufacturers to get relief when international competitors try and game the system. This legislation makes it easier for American companies to prove they have been negatively impacted by illegal imports and speeds up relief.

American wage earners should not be sent to the unemployment line because foreign competitors unjustly drive their companies out of business.

On July 15th, after months of fighting, American tire workers won their case and I’m told provisions of the Level Playing Field Act helped these workers win their case. I was very proud to stand with these tire workers and I will always fight for a level playing field in the future.

This Labor Day, let’s remember all of the workers who helped build this country and make America the incredible place it is today. Going forward, let us continue to fight for these workers so that they can succeed and build the bright future they deserve.

For Work & Play Select American Made!

Shortly after senators Stabenow and Hoeven introduced their Voluntary Country-of-Origin Labeling and Trade Enhancement Act of 2015, the Canadian Agriculture Minister, Gerry Ritz, issued a statement his country would have no choice but to impose billions of dollars of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. exports.

“Senators Hoeven and Stabenow’s proposal in no way reflects Canada’s voluntary labeling regime,” he said. “A voluntary regime as they propose does not require legislation. By continuing the segregation of and discrimination against Canadian cattle and hogs, Senators Hoeven and Stabenow’s proposed measure will continue to harm farmers, ranchers, packers, retailers and consumers. It will cost American families thousands of jobs, and guarantee Canadian retaliation.”

The Consumers Union, the policy and advocacy component of Consumer Reports, wrote in June the proposed repeal goes even further than the case before the WTO by repealing countryof-origin labeling for products not covered by the case, including chicken and ground beef.

“We don’t think Congress should be intimidated by other countries’ efforts to water down our labeling standards…” Consumers Union wrote.

But fear of retaliation extends to an array of producers.

Jim Trezise, president of the New York Wine & Grape Foundation, testified before the Senate committee that the market for all American wine in Canada has increased 78 percent since 2010, with wine exports totaling $487 million and translating into retail sales of $1 billion, a market share of 16 percent.

“The potential tariff increase by the Canadian government would roughly double the price of American wines to Canadian consumers overnight, drying up our sales and opening the door to competing wine regions from throughout the world,” he said.

Dealerships say buying American pays for all of us The argument never really goes away — Ford or Chevy. Either way you are buying from an American company, but for some families its tradition.

“It’s kind of funny because we’re kind of bred, or influenced by our parents, I should say. You know you grew up driving either Ford or Chevy,” says Jeff Brown, general manager for Baumann Ford and Baumann Chevy in Genoa.

“Not a lot of people make that crossover as they get older. You’re seeing it more and more nowadays, somebody will have a preference. It is still there. You know what, I think it’s kind of a family value thing. It’s funny because we always kid about it. My family grew up GM, and then for many years later, I made the changeover, obviously to Ford, and then now I do both.”

Either way, buying from an American company is a big deal. That does not necessarily mean the automobile’s parts were made in this country, or even that it was assembled here.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 65 percent of a Chevrolet Equinox is made in the U.S. or Canada, 62 or 75 percent of a Chevrolet Impala’s content comes from North America, depending on the fleet, and that figure is 60 percent for a Fiat-Chrysler Dart and a Ford Lincoln. There are other cars from the Big 3 manufacturers that are over 70 percent, even approaching 80 percent.

However, many cars built by foreign companies are manufactured in the United States, too, so does that make them an American car? Some people say it does, especially if someone from your family is employed by that company.

For example, 75 percent of Toyota Camrys are manufactured domestically, says NHTSA charts. For Honda Accords its 70 percent, for a Toyota Lexus its 60 percent, and for a Honda Civic it’s 65 percent, but again, that figure can vary depending on the fleet. However, the percentages for cars sold in America is about the same whether it’s a foreign or American brand.

Brown says you’re still helping Americans more when you buy from an American company.

“There are a lot of parts that are outsourced with many of the vehicles, but for the most part, when you look at domestically-made car, it’s where the money ends up — the money stays in America,” Brown said. “We might have parts made in Mexico or China, or this or that, but at least the money is funneled back to here. That’s what a lot of people don’t understand with the imports — yeah, they can make the car in the United States, but that money just

gets funneled back to China or Japan or something like that.

“It’s becoming more and more of a global market and there is nothing we can do about that,” Brown continued. “The global market is opening up, obviously, and these manufacturers are finding that we have to use platforms overseas to help replenish cars here in America.”

Surrounded by assembly plants Brown has been with the Genoa dealership since 2001, serving as sales manager under previous owner Terry Paul and staying on when Genoa Ford/Chevy became Baumann Ford/Chevy 3½ years ago. He says it’s even more important to buy locally when the auto is assembled locally.

“It benefits us — these parts, these suppliers that build around these vehicles are your neighbors, our friends, our relatives who produce these vehicles and have a part in it. They are the ones selling it,” Brown said. “From the people selling the car to the people making the car, they are still employed, along with the people who work on the cars — the mechanics, the parts suppliers, and everything else that goes along with it.”

“On the Ford side, you’ve got the Flat Rock Assembly Plant, on the GM side, you’ve got the (Toledo GM power train plant on Alexis Road) supplies a lot of the transmissions and so forth — I’m not exactly sure which trucks and so forth.

They end up in Dearborn for the F-150s, or the Cleveland plant builds a lot of the (Ford) eco-boost motors. So, we are directly affected by every part of that car.”

Even though Fiat-Chrysler has not officially announced that the Jeep Wrangler will continue to be assembled long term at its traditional home in West Toledo, news from a national magazine that the company is leaning that way has made at least one local dealership happy.

“Supporting American made products not only benefits our country’s economy as a whole but especially locally with the Jeep plant being located in Toledo,” said Nicole Hopkins, marketing manager for Rouen Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep-Ram on Fremont Pike outside Woodville. “The quality has only increased over the years and consumers can be assured they are getting a well-made product that helps support our country.”

And, when it’s manufactured in America, you can be more assured it’s built by a better brand of worker, says Jason

Chevrolet is right behind it. It’s trying hard with the Colorado, the Silverado, and the Silverado HD lineup, they are trying, so we kind of have the best of both worlds right here — Ford and Chevrolet and what more do you need? It’s apple pie and red, white and blue.”

“But, you are still kind of bred with American vehicles. And, I notice, when we get the imports in trade-in, we don’t do that well with them. This area just likes its domestic product. You see a lot more imports and stuff down (south), but I think people here, and with Chrysler and Jeep, it’s all great news for all of us. Our goal is to have everyone working and everybody being effective. It’s what matters, 110 percent.”

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles announced in August that sales of Jeeps are up 18 percent and the Wrangler, Cherokee, Patriot and Compass set sales records. The Jeep brand has had 23 consecutive months of year-to-year sales gains, setting a new sales record every month since November 2013. All set new monthly sales records in August, and even the new small sportutility vehicle, the Jeep Renegade, was up 29 percent compared to sales in July.

Middaugh notes that Buick is the oldest brand in the world, and according to his figures, Chevy outsells any brand, period.

“If the whole company is buying Chevy, they can’t be wrong,” Middaugh said. “There is a reason there, and that’s because the quality and the value are so high.

That’s why we are No. 1 and we sell the most. We have the highest value and good quality.”

Brown is convinced that much of the manufacturing that has been outsourced will return to the U.S., and he’s seeing it already.

“We’ve moving more and more product back to assembly in the United States.

It’s a big deal anymore,” Brown said.

“It was great news when they brought the Fusion from Mexico back up to Flat Rock, and it’s just been an amazing journey.

It’s a wonderful automobile and one of our best sellers. With the new aluminum F-150s, it’s been amazing — you’ve got Kansas City and Dearborn producing one of the highest quality trucks on the market today.”

2>6C:42 Middaugh, new car sales manager at Dunn Chevrolet-Buick in Oregon.

“They are built just as well in quality, if not better, and the money goes here in our own country. It keeps jobs here, supports families here, businesses here,” Middaugh says.

Middaugh likes it when he hears from potential customers that they are shopping with the intention of purchasing an American brand, but he knows not everyone thinks that way.

Congress passed the American Automobile Labeling Act (AALA) to help consumers by providing information about the country of origin of vehicles and their parts. The law was enacted in October 1992 and went into effect two years later.

“There are people who are very conscious of it, and there are some people who are not. They are many, many people that it is a motivation — they want to buy from an American manufacturer,” Middaugh said.

“

It’s becoming more and more of a global market and there is nothing we can do about that.

Northwood looks at creating revitalization district

DROUILLARD

Northwood City Council on Thursday will consider establishing a revitalization district as a tool for economic development.

The district would promote the development of new restaurants, and other social and entertainment establishments in properly zoned areas of the community.

“Basically, if passed by council, extra liquor licenses would be available within the district,” said City Administrator Bob Anderson. “City council is looking at different ways to encourage economic growth along Woodville Road from the Great Eastern Shopping Plaza to I-280.”

Creating the district would provide businesses with better access to D-5l liquor permits, which would spur investment and economic development, according to Glenn Grisdale, an economic development consultant for Northwood. The district would be established through the Ohio Division of Liquor Control, which would allow the sale of up to 15 additional D-5l liquor permits within the district. D-5l permits allow full liquor sales privileges.

“The reason why this tool was created is because sales of liquor permits are based upon population in the state of Ohio. The most coveted and desired liquor permit is the D-5l, which allows establishments to offer beer, wine and spirituous liquor until 2:30 a.m.,” said Grisdale.

Liquor permits are sold quickly, on a first come first serve basis, he added, because restaurants are more profitable when selling liquor.

“Northwood not only wants to provide their existing residents with this service, but for them to get to the next economic level, they’re going to need additional rooftops and economic activity that only comes from inviting new traffic to the community.

It’s just one element to the overall economic development strategy that we’re trying,” he said.

Without the establishment of the district, a Northwood business seeking to buy a D-5l liquor permit would have to go through the Division of Liquor Control’s TREX program if there are no licenses

available for transfer within the community. The business would be allowed to purchase another liquor permit in Ohio but is required to buy the business’s assets as well, which can be cost prohibitive.

“Usually, it can get so expensive to the business looking to buy the permit that the deal will go away,” said Grisdale. “So when someone in the district applies for a liquor permit, the Division of Liquor Control will look at the address on the application, and will see it’s in a revitalization district, and that business will be eligible for a D-5l liquor permit. They would be able to buy the D-5l liquor permit without having to buy the business’s assets. That’s the whole benefit of this district. It allows people to save money, and get just the license. They can use the extra money to fix up their building,

do a business plan, buy food, or whatever.”

He noted that the public shouldn’t be wary about additional liquor licenses turning the city into the “wild, wild west.”

“The market will find this tool valuable up to a certain point where people will say, `There are just too many restaurants over there, or too many whatever.’ But that will never happen because city council will keep their ears to the ground and will listen to the public. It will never get that way because businesses will go through the same liquor permitting process as anyone else. It just makes them eligible,” he said.

One possible boundary for the revitalization district could be the Central Business District along Woodville Road, he said. It would be used in conjunction with other tools to help revitalize the area, which

includes the Great Eastern Shopping Plaza.

“Generally, it includes the far west boundary of the Great Eastern Shopping Plaza, then north to Old Curtice Road, then east to the outlots around Meijer and Applebee’s, then to the outlots along I-280, then across I-280 to outlots at Menards, then back to the Great Eastern Shopping Plaza,” he said.

The proposed district does not include the property where the former Woodville Mall was located on Woodville Road before it was razed.

“Council did talk about that, but upon my advice, I didn’t want this district to get too large because people would not see the fruits of the program, it would be too sprawled out,” he said. “It could be included later.”

“Family Frenzy” benefit

Pemberville grocer honored with Retailer Award The Laurel Grocery Company recently honored Pemberville IGA and its owners, the Frobose family, with two awards.

Laurel is a wholesaler of groceries, meat, produce and general merchandise and serves 275 stores in a nine-state region.

The London, Kentucky based company has been serving family-owned grocery stores since 1922.

Laurel honored the store’s owners, Bob and Elaine Frobose, as one of two Laurel Grocer 2015 Retailers of the Year recipients. In addition their son, Jake, was named retail manager of the year.

Teresa Despaign, spokesperson for Laurel, said the Frobose family was recognized at an awards presentation on August 25. Criteria included the store’s increase in sales—30 to 40 percent every week over last year--and the family’s support of the community.

Bob Frobose attributed the sales increase to upgrades made since his family purchased the store three years ago. New refrigerator cases for all products were installed and the meat department expanded.

“We have 60 different kinds of bratwurst and lots of smoked products such as smoked bacon. Anything you can smoke, we smoke,” he said.

Pemberville IGA is a family-run business providing jobs for 17 to 20 employees.

In addition to Bob, Elaine and Jake other family members are Ben, Abby and Zach.

Councilman eyes seat on twp. board

Boat show

Greg Jones, of Grove City, Ohio, shows off his 1940 Thompson 40 dingy at the ninth annual Antique and Clasic Boat Show held recently at the National Museum of the Great Lakes.

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com With a decision by a veteran Lake Township trustee to not seek re-election in November, and a decision by an incumbent member of Walbridge Village Council to seek her seat on the board of trustees, there will be new faces next year on the board and council.

Melanie Bowen, who will be completing her fourth four-year term as a township trustee, said Tuesday family responsibilities are preventing her from spending as much time on township business as she’d like.

“I couldn’t give 100 percent to the job,” she said. “When you can’t do that it’s not fair to the residents.”

Ken Gilsdorf, a member of village council, is one of three candidates for the seat being vacated by Bowen.

Michael Evanoff, Meadowview Lane, and Matthew Schober, Luckey Road, are also on the ballot.

Gilsdorf said running for a trustee’s seat is something he’d been seriously considering.

“I love Walbridge and I love Lake Township,” he said. “I think Melanie has done a good job and I told Melanie I’d never run against her.”

Bowen left open the possibility of running again for a trustee’s seat in two years when the terms of incumbents Jeff Pettit and Richard Welling expire.

In 2013, Gilsdorf was the highest vote-getter among five candidates vying for council.

Fire truck purchased Resolutions for hiring personnel, purchasing new equipment and maintaining facilities of the Lake Township Fire Department were approved Tuesday by the township trustees.

The township will purchase a new fire truck from Sutphen, of Dublin, O., for $465,759.

The company submitted the lowest of two bids, according to Bruce Moritz, fire chief, who said production of the new truck would take about eight or nine months. The township is replacing a vehicle that is more than 20 years old. Moritz said the department has $200,000 in its budget for a down payment and will finance the balance.

The manufacturer is offering to pay 2.5 percent in interest on the down payment during the production period, which can be applied to the price of the vehicle, he said.

The trustees also awarded a contract to Quinn Concrete, Inc., Toledo, to a portion of the asphalt apron in front of fire station 1 for $7,350.Chief Moritz said the 8-inch-thick section will be replaced with concrete. The department frequently parks vehicles on the apron for washing and other purposes and the asphalt is wearing.

Personnel matters for the department were also approved. The trustees approved hiring Daniel Faust and Russel Fisher as probationary firefighters. The two will be assigned to station 2 and be on probation for one year.

A six-month leave of absence for firefighter Michael Huepenbecker was also approved and an annual pump and ladder testing/inspection will be contracted to Mistras Corp. for $3,500.

In other business, the trustees will hold a hearing on a proposed lighting district for the Siglar Addition on Sept.

15 at 7 p.m.

Residents in the subdivision petitioned for the district, said Richard Welling, a trustee.

Council race Three candidates, Breanna Hernandez, Ryan Weaver and Tamra Williams, all of whom live on E. Union Street in Walbridge, are vying in November for two open seats on village council.

Edward Kolanko, the incumbent village mayor, is being challenged by Leo Brenot, of Earl Street.

Residents living in the unincorporated area of the township will also be asked in November to renew a 1-mill, 5-year levy used to repair roads.

Wants to raise hens

Oregon man reapplies for special permit

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com An application for a Special Use Exemption (SUE) permit to raise six hens in a residential area on S. Wynn Road in Oregon that was withdrawn this summer has been resubmitted for approval.

A public hearing on the matter is scheduled for 8 p.m. on Sept. 28 before Oregon City Council.

The Oregon Planning Commission in August unanimously recommended approval of David Pullella’s reapplication for the SUE, a reversal of the commission’s 3-2 vote that an earlier application for the SUE be denied in June. There had been opposition from some nearby property owners.

The property at 935 S. Wynn Road is in a low density residential district.

Pullella had asked council several weeks ago he be allowed to withdraw his original application for an SUE due to some confusion regarding his intent for the permit.

When he had initially applied for the permit, the Building and Zoning’s inspection department had asked Pullella if he had wanted to include any other animals, since there was a $300 application fee for the SUE. Pullella then said he might want to raise rabbits, ducks, goats, turkeys, swans and pheasants in the future, though his immediate plan was to raise the six hens, according to Mayor Mike Seferian, who is a member of the Planning Commission.

“He only wanted to apply for chick-

ens,” said Seferian. “When it came before the Planning Commission, some of the neighbors were upset that the permit would allow all the other animals.”

Council had approved a motion to allow Pullella to withdraw his application with the understanding he could reapply in the future without additional application fees.It would have taken six votes of city council to overturn the Planning Commissions’s recommendation that the permit be denied.

“It was determined that it really wasn’t fair to the applicant because he didn’t really want all those other animals,” explained Seferian. “The second application only asks for the six hens. Now that it has passed the Planning Commission, it will only take a majority of council to approve the request.”

Less opposition Seferian said there was a “softer opposition” to the SUE request from area residents at the August commission meeting.

He said the recommendation for approval included the condition the SUE be revised on a year to year basis.

“I moved for acceptance of the SUE for a one year period with the option for renewal,” said Seferian. “We have found in the past that sometimes you give someone an SUE carte blanche, and they initially take good care of animals, but as time goes on, they do not take such good care of them. So a reason to deny a renewal would be that the applicant did not live up to the terms of the way they should care for the animals.”

Some on the Planning Commission wondered if Oregon should be like Toledo, which does not require a permit to raise chickens.

“I brought it up to council and they did not think it would be a good idea, that it would be more prudent to use the Planning Commission for this process,” said Seferian.

The city’s Project Review Committee had no objections to the SUE request, but recommended that a plan be submitted and approved for waste removal and housing.

Pullella plans to raise the chickens to lay eggs. The chickens would be fenced in.

A coop would be located behind a 10 foot by 12 foot shed, located about 250 feet from the road. He also plans to build a run for them as well.

Harings on other zoning requests scheduled for 8 p.m. on Sept. 28 before council include: • An application for an SUE in an R-2 medium density residential district for commercial truck storage at 2159 and 2163 Arkansas Street. The owner/applicant is Jerry Watson.

• An application for an SUE in an R-1 Low Density Residential District to house more than three dogs – creating a kennel on the property at 6143 Seaman Road. The owners/applicants are Fenno and Linda Vanderveen.

• An application for an SUE in a C-2 General Commercial District for the purpose of outside bus storage at 5434 Navarre Avenue. The applicant is Noel Graham for owner Larry J. Liptack.

Ohio EPA loan will help repair septic systems

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency is offering funds to help eligible homeowners in Lucas County to repair or replace their septic systems.

The Ohio EPA awarded a $300,000 loan to the county as part of the Ohio Department of Health’s Home Sewage Treatment Systems (HSTS) Repair/ Replacement project for 2015.

The Ohio EPA also provided funds for HSTS repairs/replacements in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013, according to Dina Pierce, media coordinator for the northwest and southwest district of the Ohio EPA. This round of funding is being co-administered with the Ohio Department of Health (ODH).

The funding is expected to improve the quality of life for low-income residents by repairing or replacing failing home sewage treatment systems at an affordable cost.

In addition to addressing potential health concerns, local water quality will benefit from the improvements. By targeting failing home sewage systems in the western Lake Erie basin, nutrient and bacteria runoff into the lake is expected to be reduced.

The western basin of Lake Erie has been plagued by algal blooms in the last several years, some of it due to leaking septic systems along the lake.

Since the principal on the loan to the

Toledo-Lucas County Health Department is forgiven, no principal or interest must be repaid to the state. Eligible Lucas County homeowners will receive either 100 percent, 85 percent or 50 percent principal forgiveness toward the cost of repairing or replacing failing home septic systems.

The percentage of principal forgiveness assistance is dependent on the number of people living in the household and whether the household’s income is at or below federal poverty guidelines, or up to 300 percent of the guidelines, according to Pierce.

While the funds do not have to be repaid, any portion of the repair or replacement cost not funded with the state loan will be the homeowner’s responsibility.

“These are called loans because the funding comes from the state’s Water Pollution Control Loan Fund,” said Pierce.

“However, effectively these are grants because the funds do not have to be repaid by the homeowners or the county health departments.”

Ohio EPA has made $5 million available to county health departments for this program, she added.

“To date, $1 million has been loaned to seven counties, including the Lucas County loan,” she said.

Approximately 31% of all household sewage treatment systems throughout the state of Ohio are experiencing some degree of failure, according to a 2012 Clean Watersheds needs Survey, conducted every

four years as required by the Clean Water Act of 1972. This is an increase from the 23% failure rate reported by the Ohio Department of Health in a 2008 Survey of Household Sewage Treatment Systems Operation and Failure Rates.

The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) assists the Ohio EPA by collecting information on household sewage treatment systems and failures in Ohio.

Created in 1989, the Water Pollution Control Loan Fund provides below-market interest rate loans for communities to improve their wastewater treatment systems.

The reduced interest rate and principal forgiveness will save the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department an estimated $421,000 compared to a conventional, market-rate loan.

Besides improvements to publicly owned treatment works, Water Pollution Control Loan Funds have been provided for agricultural best management practices, home sewage system improvements, landfill closures and water quality-based storm water projects. The WPCLF provides technical assistance to public wastewater systems in a variety of areas from the planning, design and construction of improvements to enhancing the technical, managerial and financial capacity of these systems.

WPCLF loans also make possible the restoration and protection of some of Ohio’s highest quality water bodies through the fund’s Water Resource Restoration Sponsor Program.

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

Oregon

eek: The Door is Open

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.”

That walleye you caught — it’s gotten around Lake Erie

By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com

Of course, the shark epidemic on the Carolina coast is no threat here, but Lake Erie has its own shark — the walleye.

That’s what Dr. Chris Vandergoot, supervisor with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Sandusky Fisheries Unit, calls the walleye — “Lake Erie’s shark” because walleye are the lake’s predator.

Thanks to new technology, the Ohio DNR is better understanding that a single walleye gets around — after spawning, it can virtually travel from the western basin to the central and even eastern basin in a year’s time, and then back to the western basin to spawn again in the spring.

Some walleye, Dr. Vandergoot says, leave the western basin and travel to Lake Huron and back.

Dr. Vandergoot says walleye, a cold water species, move east as you get into the warmer, summer months because the colder, deeper water in the central and eastern basins promotes growth and more foraging opportunities. He says because of their new study, movements previously understood have been confirmed, and new movements are being discovered.

They are tracking walleye with telemetry — using acoustic technology. Dr. Vandergoot presented preliminary findings for the four-year old study during the Sixth Annual Lake Erie Workshop for Science and Outdoor Writers and Reporters at Gibraltar Island, home of Ohio State University’s Stone Lab. They use a digital mapping system called Glatos, which starts by placing transmitters all over the lake. After a fish has a chip installed, it passes by a transmitter, which Vandergoot compares to an EZ Pass or tollbooth, and that records the fish’s movements. The receiver system is currently being installed all over the Great Lakes by various university scientists working alongside Ohio State.

“It’s a way for us to study and record geographical behavior previously unfea-

Solutions

Dr. Chris Vandergoot sible to us,” Dr. Vandergoot said. “Any fish that is tagged, if it goes to other lakes, we are going to know about it.”

Since 2011, 900 walleye have been released with acoustic transmitters installed, including 200 in the Maumee River in 2011 and 2012, 165 in Toussaint River in 2013, and 200 in the Sandusky River in 2014 and 2015.

Dr. Vandergoot showed a video starring himself and his assistants catching a walleye near the Touissant River in April 2013. They knocked out the walleye’s nervous system, put the fish to sleep, and then he performed surgery to install the chip.

The whole process takes about a minute and a half. Then, they put the walleye into a recovery chamber before it is released back into the lake’s waters.

Once installed, a transmitter will last anywhere from one to 10 years, signaling to researchers every one to two minutes. The transmitter is able to determine what depth the walleye is at and the temperature of the water, so it provides researchers with data

to determine what optimal temperatures are best for walleye growth and survival.

What they are finding is that walleye are much more highly mobile than previously thought, and larger females are even more likely to migrate. In addition, during spawning, females average about 10 days in the reef, males about 30 days.

“Which makes sense because when the female was in the area, she blows her eggs, and she’s done. The male, however, he has multiple opportunities to spread his genetics across the population,” Dr. Vandergoot said.

Dr. Vandergoot says the study has three themes — • To help re-evaluate conservation efforts. For example, numbers of lake trout and sturgeon have taken a hit in Lake Erie, so this will help make sure the same doesn’t happen to walleye.

• To monitor signs of aquatic invasive species and how susceptible they would be for trapping.

• To help determine stock assessment levels so the ODNR can more accurately determine what the safe catch limit should be for walleye each fishing season.

Dr. Vandergoot says the information from these studies will “provide more useful information to U.S. and Canadian decision makers.”

“We’ve developed a product for Lake Erie managers so they can make a decision on the Lake Erie fishing industry,” Dr. Vandergoot said. “It helps us determine movement rates, spawning ecology and survival rates of Great Lakes walleye. We’re addressing the temporal and spatial structure of fish populations, spawning ecology and phrenology, spawning site fidelity, habitat use, and thermal occupancy for maximizing growth.”

The Press Poll

Where do you think is the best place to get boneless wings?

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.

Vincent Smoot Walbridge “The Skillet in Walbridge because they’re really juicy and good.”

Allie Burner Woodville “I think the best place is Buffalo Wild Wings.

They’re really big and they have a lot of breading which I really like plus I like their honey barbecue.”

Get informed

To the editor: I am writing on behalf of the Oregon Schools Levy Committee.

Our committee is made up of concerned community members who feel that a strong school system is critical for a strong community.

We would like to make sure that Oregon voters are aware of some important points regarding the upcoming 3.95 mill levy: • The State of Ohio has cut Oregon City Schools funding by $2.6 million over the past five years.

• Oregon Schools has cut its spending by $2.5 million over the past six years to balance the budget.

• If the levy does not pass, extracurricular activities such as clubs, band, choir, Limelighters and athletics will be cut beginning in the 2016-17 school year.

• If the levy does not pass, the Clay Career Technical Program will be shifted to a joint vocational school, resulting in an automatic 3.2 mill un-voted property tax increase.

If anyone has questions regarding any levy details or how the funds will be used, please come to a community forum meeting on Sept. 10 or Oct. 8 at 6 p.m. in the Clay cafeteria for an open discussion.

I want Press readers to know that I have been to the Limestone Tavern in Rocky Ridge on numerous occasions at all times of the day and night and have never seen anything sold there that wasn’t allowed by the establishments liquor license.

The current owner of the tavern has spent uncountable hours and a large amount of money to improve the ambiance of the bar to make it a place where one can easily take their friends and family and feel

relaxed. I am sure his establishment should not have been implicated in the quarry tragedy at Rocky Ridge.

I am also sure that if The Press’ readers go out there and see the place for themselves, they will find it a great place to frequent and will want to return again and again. There is corn hole played every Thursday night and the food is great.

Undermining Obama

To the editor: If race relations are worse in this country since President Obama took office you might want to look at a certain political party that has diligently worked to undermine everything he has done or tried to do.

Then look at some of the so called candidates and wonder why they say what they say. Racism should have been extinct years ago. There is one group of ignorant people that is responsible for its return.

In spite of undesirable events, maintain a positive outlook Dare to Live

Why do things happen? There is always a cause and effect relationship. Your actions determine your outcomes. Being able to recognize this connection enables you to adjust your actions as needed to keep on track toward your goals.

Undesirable events are frustrating. Our reaction typically includes many negative emotions including anger, resentment, and bitterness. As much as you would like to, there is no changing what has already happened.

However, you do have control over your response. Taking the appropriate next step is what’s critical. Negative emotions inhibit this process because your attitude influences your perception. Assuming the role of a victim puts you on a path of endless frustration.

The goal is always to make the best of whatever you have to deal with. Effectively doing so requires a positive mental attitude.

You want to identify what steps you can take to improve, or at least effectively deal with, your current situation.

Conversely, a negative attitude fosters a victim mentality which finds fault and places blame. Rather than moving you

forward, this approach digs a deeper hole.

Then, not only are you stagnant, you are also mired down, making it even more difficult to move to a better place.

A positive mindset enables you to identify the reason for the circumstances you are facing. The connection may not be evident immediately. With time, patience, and a clear mind, you will be able to ascertain the reason.

A positive attitude enables you to identify previously hidden opportunities.

Doors that close push you into a new direction. Your objective is to determine the appropriate direction. Things often work out for the best when you have a positive outlook.

Negative results serve a purpose. They identify areas where changes are needed. They motivate you to explore options

you may have been ignoring. Unanswered prayers may very well be a blessing in disguise.

The real reason for a particular outcome may take time to become obvious. At the moment it happens, you have no idea why. Later, when you are able to look back and reflect, the pieces fall into place.

Once you understand why things have happened, you are in a position to gain more control of your life. Your goal is to eliminate behavior which produced undesirable results, while repeating those actions which yield positive outcomes.

This is an ongoing process. Constantly monitor your cause and effect relationships. Examine unsuccessful results for hidden opportunities. You will learn more from mistakes and failures than when all goes as planned.

Life is fluid. Make changes as needed. Circumstances, situations, and goals change, and you need to adapt. Don’t become trapped in the past. Remain connected to where you are right now. What are your current goals? Which direction would you like to be headed? What should be your next step?

Don’t become angry or bitter when things don’t go as expected. Harboring these negative emotions make your situation worse. Release destructive feelings in order to focus on moving ahead.

The direction of life is forward. The past cannot be changed. You determine your future. Your success is dependent on understanding why events have unfolded the way they have. Don’t be passive, you are not a victim.

Take responsibility for your circumstances. Regardless of what has happened or why, it’s up to you where you go next.

You are the driver of your life, stay behind the wheel. Goals are reached by taking one step at a time. If you stumble or fall, get right back up in order to keep moving forward.

Researchers study 30,500 men

Fatherhood at young age can lead to death at middle age

“

One poor choice made without realizing its ramifications can also lead to a lifetime of limited options.

“

Any man who holds his sleeping, helpless newborn in his arms knows the enormity of the task ahead of him: ď‚ˇď€ Make money; ď‚ˇď€ Teach independence; ď‚ˇď€ Serve as a role model; ď‚ˇď€ Imprint a moral code; ď‚ˇď€ Encourage participation in activities that teach discipline, teamwork, sharing and leadership; ď‚ˇď€ Most importantly, work with a partner to instill a certain set of life skills that will allow that newborn to develop into an adult who can compete and contribute to society.

To be sure, some fathers get lost along the way.

Some think they are raising a drinking buddy.

Others have the misguided notion they are cloning themselves.

But, with few exceptions, a father wants to raise a child to be better than himself, to have what he didn’t have and to avoid the mistakes he made. So, it should come as no surprise a recent Finnish study concluded that men who become fathers before age 25 have a higher risk of dying when they reach middle age. Fatherhood is not a job for boys.

The study, which was published this summer by researchers at the University of Helsinki, concluded the stress and financial burden of raising a child increases the

risk of heart and alcohol-related diseases when those young fathers reach ages 45-54.

Researchers tracked 30,500 men born between 1940 and 1950. Men who had their first child before age 22 had a 26 percent higher risk of death than men who fathered their first child at age 25. On the other hand, men who became fathers between the ages of 30 and 44 had a 25 percent low-

er risk of death in middle age.

The study concludes that the stress of providing financial support so early in life restricted a young father’s ability to invest in his education or attain marketable job skills.

In addition, the burden of fatherhood can retard a young man’s desire for adventure and self-exploration, which can lead to depression and the normal pathologies a depressed man indulges in—alcohol, drugs and other forms of escapism.

While the study suggests a causal relationship between fatherhood at an early age and death at an early age, I suspect the burdens of fatherhood are not the only reasons for an early demise. I suspect poor choices.

One such choice can lead to a litany of poor choices.

Take drug use, for instance.

Accomplishments in career, education and hobbies result from the hard work it takes to achieve them. These achievements lead to a sense of self esteem and satisfaction with life. A drug high, which takes little effort, can provide a few moments of satisfaction. The user receives the benefit without the work, so he delays his development and makes poor choice after poor choice to feed his habit.

One poor choice made without realizing its ramifications can also lead to a lifetime of limited options. Take driving while intoxicated. The billboard campaign a few years ago showed a young man taking a

breathalyzer test. Under it was the caption “You just blew $10,000.�

You will find few young men who believe this. However, after paying to have your car towed and stored, attorney fees, court fines and costs, court ordered education classes, license reinstatement fees, an ignition interlock system, “party plates,� and higher insurance rates you could easily blow past that $10,000 figure. In fact, two years ago, an experienced DUI attorney I consulted for a column, pegged the total at $14,762.

That’s a big hole for a young father to dig out of working for a little more than minimum wage and paying for diapers, pack-n-plays, bassinets, cribs, swings, jump-ups, walkers and later sports, music lessons or an education.

If researchers look deeper, I think they will find a young man who becomes a father when he is not mature enough or financially stable enough to handle the job has compiled a history of bad choices.

On the other hand, if he hasn’t screwed up too bad, when he holds that sleeping, helpless newborn in his arms, he will discover that natural calling to protect and nurture and he will wake up each morning with these words from Spike Lee reverberating in his head, “Do the right thing.�

Ag secretary’s love affair with biofuel is fleecing taxpayers

By Ryan Alexander It’s a timeless story of teenage romance: pledging love, abandoning reason, rebelling against authority. No, this isn’t the plot of a John Hughes movie. Instead, I’m talking about Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack’s love affair with ethanol.

While Vilsack is tasked with representing the interests of all of taxpayers, at times he seems to have never left Iowa — where ethanol is a big business and where the secretary served two terms as governor.

He regularly attends ethanol trade conferences, and he’s among the industry’s most vocal supporters.

Under Vilsack’s guidance, the Department of Agriculture co-opted the Renewable Energy for America Program to support ethanol blender pumps in 2011.

Otherwise known as REAP, the government created this program to help small businesses in rural areas install renewable energy systems or improve their energy efficiency. As even ethanol producers will acknowledge, blender pumps do neither.

Guest Editorial They’re simply a method to increase ethanol’s share of the gasoline market.

Currently, almost all U.S. gasoline is 10 percent ethanol, or E10. The industry obviously wants drivers to consume more ethanol, so it pushes higher blends, like E15, E30, or E85. But normal gas pumps can’t handle corrosive high-ethanol gas, or offer multiple blends.

So ethanol needs a mechanism to mix it with regular gasoline. That’s where blender pumps come in.

REAP’s purpose was clear, but Vilsack’s department saw an opening in the law’s failure to narrowly define “renewable energy systems.� In a 2011 rule it issued for the program, the department declared that

“flexible fuel pumps� qualified. It was a shameless attempt to use tax dollars to help the ethanol industry distribute its product.

Like parents catching a teenage boy sneaking in through their window, Congress immediately objected. The House overwhelmingly passed amendments offered by then-Representative Jeff Flake — the Arizona Republican is a senator now — barring the department from spending money on the blender pumps.

Then, in the 2014 Farm Bill, Congress specifically excluded blender pumps from the definition of renewable energy systems.

Lawmakers stated the obvious: REAP was never meant to pay for installing pumps at gas stations.

Yet being forbidden only strengthened Vilsack’s ardor for blender pumps. Within weeks of Congress passing the Farm Bill, Vilsack went on the record reassuring the ethanol industry that their love affair would endure: “This is an invitation to you to come to me, and I will help you‌ Make no mistake about that.â€?

True to Vilsack’s word, the Department of Agriculture recently announced the creation of the Biofuels Infrastructure Project, which just finished accepting applications for as much as $100 million for blender pumps.

The romance lives on, but it isn’t a happy ending for taxpayers. For more than 30 years the government has subsidized ethanol, which currently enjoys numerous tax breaks, support from Department of Energy and Transportation programs, and a renewable fuels standard that mandates its use.

So $100 million to help ethanol producers pad their bottom line is icing on the cake. The Vilsack blender pump affair is fleecing taxpayers. It has to stop.

Ryan Alexander is president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan federal budget watchdog.

Sadly, a spate of murders, robberies and traffic accidents most likely took precedence.

Have been riding the Erie Canal Trail the last couple of days under sunny but cool skies - quite good for cycling — very level of course as the path follows canal side - lush farm land provides green and growing vistas as the canal traverses upstate New York.

The Erie Canal, completed in 1825, was one of the economic engines of westward movement and commerce in the early to mid 19th century. Providing a navigational path from the Hudson River to the Great Lakes, tons of agricultural produce could move easily eastward along the canal, and much needed industrial goods could move westward, fueling the expansion and development of the soon to be continental United States.

I am currently in Rochester, NY, and will still be on the Erie Canal Trail tomorrow.

I can easily go through 10 mood swings each day, from elation at the beauty of the countryside sweeping past, to a deflation of the spirit as I think about this long road and the physical demands that are called for. I think in the previous update I said I had forgotten what it was like to cycle long distances under a heavy load. I hadn’t really forgotten — I can easily recall times on previous tours when it really got tough. So you don’t really forget, but want to remember more all the good experiences of tours gone by.

I rode the Lake Erie wine trail into Pennsylvania amid a carpet of vineyards to the left of me and to the right of me.

Surrounded by vineyards, and really thinking I could use a glass of wine. A high ridge of hills and uplands off to the south delineated the Lake Erie coastal plain and the wine region — thankfully keeping their distance, not requiring me to climb up and over.

In Erie, PA, in a rather rough part of town through which I was passing, Alonzo came up to me and thanked me for what I was doing. And then I thanked him for thanking me.

I volunteered a day with Buffalo Habitat for Humanity on Wednesday working on a rehab house that is intended for a Somali immigrant/refugee family of 9.

We were hanging some drywall, but about halfway through the day, I started to feel ill. Finished the day a bit rough, and then had to cycle into downtown Buffalo to see if I could get accommodation at a traveler’s hostel. Luckily I found accommodation, and also luckily the bug departed, and I felt better in the morning.

Very disappointed in the TV and Print media outlets in both Cleveland and Buffalo! I contacted the major network affiliate outlets in both those cities to let them know what I was doing and that I would be at the Habitat for Humanity office with my bike before heading out to the job site for the day, and there could be a good news story here. None showed up in either city passing up an opportunity to report a story that would have been beneficial to my fundrais-

is not even the Adirondacks which await just to the east of me. Debating whether to go all the way up on the St. Lawrence Seaway where it will be flatter.

I bade good bye to the Erie Canal Trail on Saturday — good riding...flat but a little dusty. It covers the bike and chain with a thin film of gritty residue. Once off the trail, the terrain becomes hilly heading toward the shores of Lake Ontario. I hit a sweet spot late in the day - when everything seems to be clicking and the hills don’t matter much. Stopped at a great deli in Putneyville where the owner Brian and his wife Tiffany are rabid Buckeye fans.

He saw my Ohio cycling jersey and when they found out I was cycling for Habitat For Humanity and Save The Children, they

would not take any money for the food I was about to purchase. Brian directed me to the nearby marina campground, and all was good on the shores of Lake Ontario.

But Sunday was a different story as the previous day’s sweet spot became a bit sour with each challenging hill and ridge needing to be climbed. After 40 miles, I was spent. Mercifully, the last six miles to Fulton flattened out and a tailwind was my friend. At the North Bay campground overlooking a small lake with a long Native American name, a beautiful campsite awaited me. Earlier at the office I had asked if I might purchase a beer, which they did not sell. But as I was setting up camp, Brian, the manager, rolled up in his golf cart with a cooler filled with ice and 5 beers nesting inside - I should add I only drank 2.

My ride on the last day of August made up for Sunday — I made it a short day . . .and there were long gradual downhills and not so bad uphills. Enya and Celtic Women, my peddling muses, lent their voices to the ride.

Resided last evening with Warm Showers hosts Kit and Lou in Pulaski, NY. Great company, amazing homemade salsa, and chicken on the grill!

As I approach the 600 mile mark in my journey, the question is: head east into the high Adirondacks, or seek out the flats of the St. Lawrence Seaway route?

The

Etc. Elmore festival to feature grub, suds and much more The Elmore Historical Society and ABATE of Ohio Region # 7 are putting the final touches on the 19th annual Grub ‘n Suds Motorcycle Rally being held Saturday, Sept. 12, from 10 a.m.- 8 p.m. at Depot Park in Elmore.

The festivities will kick off with the ABATE “Headless Motorcycle Poker Run.” Registration will begin at 10 a.m. at the ABATE tent in Depot Park. The first 200 registrants will receive a free 2015 Grub ‘n Suds collector’s mug.

Public judging for the ABATE Bike Show also begins at 10 a.m. Motorcycles will be judged in six classes – custom, historical, cruisers, sport, rat and touring.

Winners of each class will be showcased in the “Parade of Champions” which will be held during the band break between 4 and 5 p.m. at the stage.

Razz & Sonzz will kick the party into high gear with a Rock, Country Rock and Blues Concert from noon-4 p.m. Josh Boyd and the VIP Band will also be back to provide three hours of powerful bluesy, funky and rock and roll music to the stage beginning at 5 p.m.

Once again, the Historical Society is bringing back its popular “all-you-can-eat/ all day” wristbands, which enable wearers to enjoy grilled hamburgers, cheeseburgers and hot dogs, sausage and barbecued beef sandwiches, fresh hand-cut french fries, coleslaw, baked beans, lemonade and iced tea. Everything on the menu can also be purchased a la-carte.

There will also be several vendors on the grounds selling additional food items and, as always, lots of ice cold beer by the glass or pitcher will be on tap.

On display this year will be the new 2016 motorcycle models including Harley, Indian, Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki.

Several vendors will also be at Depot Park selling jewelry, leather products and motorcycle accessories.

Motorcycle-related vendors interested in participating in Grub `n Suds may call Rick at 419-377-0700. Visit www.elmorehs. tripod.com for info about the event.

50th GAF draws record crowds More than 34,000 people came out to celebrate the 50th annual GermanAmerican Festival at Oak Shade Grove in Oregon.

“I would say this year had the best turnout to date,” said Festival Chairman Tim Pecsenye. “We were excited about the crowds that our fest drew this year – it was truly unbelievable. Bratwurst, potato salad and potato pancakes were just a few of the many extremely popular and delicious authentic German food choices that were enjoyed by all. Walking around the festival and seeing everyone enjoy the festivities was a very rewarding experience.”

Take time to savor the very best time of the year Football, festivals, fall colors, the Fall Classic, flights of migrators, frost on the pumpkin, fair breezes and fantastically deep blue skies – it just doesn’t get any better than right now.

Unfortunately the season passes much too quickly.

There’s no time to procrastinate. Get outdoors now, and later, and over and over in-between. You won’t regret it. Go with your family, your friends, significant others.

It doesn’t have to be a trip to a big place. The ravine near your house is loaded with good stuff. So are the woodlot at the end of the street, the unmowed vacant lot, the banks of the Maumee and the Portage, the trails in area parks and the trailsides of the Slippery Elm and Wabash-Cannonball trails.

Thank goodness fall color is more of a symphony than a weekend happening.

The notion of peak color is a moving target, really. Peak color along our lakeshore or rivers is different from a maple-dominated forest, which is different from oak woodlands. Colors hang on beech trees well into November. Cottonwoods can be done early.

Among the best and brightest colors to be found in early fall are along the woodland edges, often along the edges of our highways. Look for the rich oranges, reds and yellows of sassafras, the crimson of sumac, the deep colors of Virginia creeper.

The vivid colors of poison ivy may not be enough to offset any personal dislike, but provided you avoid contact, it is beautiful.

Often overlooked are the wildflowers of fall. Asters, especially, are showy in many of our meadows.

Fall color is different every year. Last year was great; the year before, not so much. Heavy rains, strong winds and early hard freezes can all bring colorful leaves to the ground too soon. What happens here may not be what’s happening not very far away.

Accurately predicting the relative beauty of the fall season is a difficult task, but we do know some things, and can make educated guesses about others.

While there is variability in individual trees, generally speaking, the trees that turn red include red oak, white oak, pin oak, shingle oak, black cherry, dogwood and sumac.

Some trees reflect more than one color.

Those that could be included in a group of mixed colors – red, yellow, maybe varying shades of orange, purple and dark russets – are buckeye, red maple, sweetgum, sassafras, and sugar maple. You can also throw

The banks of the Sandusky River near Fremont in late fall.

Virginia creeper and poison ivy into this group.

Those that can be counted on to show off yellows include beech, birch, hickory, black locust, tulip poplar, black walnut, cottonwood, sycamore, and basswood.

Ash, where it hasn’t been eliminated by the emerald ash borer, is also a yellow tree in fall.

Locally, best color typically starts along our lakeshore and rivers where buckeyes, sycamores, hackberry and cottonwoods dominate. Yellows dominate and best color is usually the last week of September into early October.

In the woodland, black tupelo with its small brilliant red leaves is an early changer. It’s not common but it’s showy.

Woodland edges are both obvious and wonderful from early in the season to midfall. We already mentioned that sassafras

Natural Wanders

by Art Weber and sumac dominate many of our edges. In the best color years sassafras can seem to glow orange and red.

Maples and other trees of the wetter woods come next, especially in places like Pearson Metropark. Secor Metropark is a bit of a drive, but it is one of the most reliable places to check late in the season.

The deep woods there, protected from the worst of winds and where temperatures are moderated, often hang on to leaves into November. The late color there is heavily

yellows, with the more copper colors of beech commonly mixed in. Young beech, like many young oaks, hang on to their leaves into winter.

Oaks wrap things up and in great years they are not some sort of lame final act.

They can be spectacular in their golds and crimsons, a grand finale for the season.

Part of the fun of fall color is that it’s predictably unpredictable. And when you catch it right on a great day there’s nothing like it, not even a perfect day in June.

Ohio Fall Color Updates are available each week through 1-800-BUCKEYE or on the Internet at http://fallcolor.ohiodnr.gov/ fall-color-home/. Local fall color reports will be available on the Metroparks of the Toledo Area website at www.metroparkstoledo.com.

Ag Notes

Walkers’ club member logs 300 miles Janet Watruba was already walking on her own at Spiegel Grove when the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center started its Walkers’ & Wagging Tails’ Club, so she figured she would join the club and log her miles. Watruba, of Fremont, was the first member of the club to reach 300 miles.

Hayes Center staff recently awarded Watruba with a T-shirt and lunch box from club sponsor ProMedica Memorial Hospital and a gift basket of goodies donated by The Fremont Company.

“I love to walk here first thing in the morning more than any other time,” Watruba said. “It’s cool, and it’s quiet. It’s home to me.”

Club members who reach 300 miles will receive a club T-shirt and – for those who have dogs – a club bandana for their dog. Participants can walk anywhere, inside or outside, keeping track of days and distances periodically recording the stats in the official log book at the Hayes Center reception desk.

For info or updates on upcoming events, visit www.rbhayes.org or call 800998-PRES.

Opposites Attract

For better or worse, couples must plan for retirement A wonderful blessing and a curse of marriage is the joining together of two very different people. While their values are likely the same, the challenges of living life together have caused many a couple to struggle with ďŹ nancial decision-making. One spouse may obsess over every penny, while the other spouse is a never-ending party, spending money feely, because “Hey, you can’t take it with you, right?â€?

While different approaches to money can make for plenty of heated discussions over the years, the most critical decisions often happen as retirement age approaches. Without a shared approach to ďŹ nancial matters, new retirees can ďŹ nd themselves laboring over decisions that have huge consequences later in life, when the opportunities to correct course may be very limited.

For the couple that is nearing retire-

Beyond the Money

by Adam Cufr ment or has recently retired, there are a number of questions to address as a couple, to ensure a uniďŹ ed approach. After all, the numbers are bigger than ever and the consequences are signiďŹ cant: • Do we both feel comfortable that we have enough savings to retire? • How much risk do we intend to take with our investments during retirement? • Have we decided how to handle money left after we pass away? • Do we both feel comfortable with

This partial list illustrates the vast number of decisions to consider when approaching retirement. It’s extremely important to consider each person’s views before large decisions are made.
