Mall fails to submit plan The owners of the Woodville Mall missed a deadline last month to submit a plan of demolition of the mall to the city, as per the order of a judge in August. Northwood City Councilman Ed Schimmel said at a council meeting on Oct. 10 that the city is reviewing its options. “The city attorney, city engineer, and city administrator are all working on that issue,” said Schimmel, a member of the city’s Economic Development Committee, where the matter was discussed just before the council meeting. “Work has kind of come to a halt over there. They’re looking at what we need to do to put together some demolition plans ourselves and possibly start foreclosure if they’re not going to move forward on the agreement.” The mall has been shut down and boarded up since December 2011 due to violations of several Wood County Health and Ohio Building codes. On January 17, the city filed a complaint against the owners of the mall, Ohio Plaza Shopping Center LLC and Woodville Mall Realty Management LLC, in the Wood County Court of Common Pleas for nuisance abatement, and removal of the building. After a hearing on Aug. 8, Wood County Court of Common Please Judge Reeve Kelsey ruled that the owners must raze the building by May 2, 2014, and set up a schedule for the owners to follow in preparation of the demolition. First on the list was the construction of a fence around the property’s perimeter to be maintained until the abatement is completed. The owners complied by the Sept. 2 deadline. But the owners failed to meet a September 30 deadline, as part of the ruling, to submit abatement plans to the city engineer, including a plan for the safe removal of asbestos, Administrator Bob Anderson said after the council meeting. “They were supposed to submit a demolition plan to the city, and they never did,” said Anderson. “I think they’re trying to get around it. I think they just want to go into the mall and piece meal it out without a plan. I don’t trust them at all to actually tear the building down. I suspect they want to go in, take out what is of value, and leave us the shell.” “Since they missed the deadline, one

of the things we can do is foreclose on the judgment entry. It’s just like a bank foreclosing on property,” said Anderson. “If you don’t live up to the terms of your mortgage, the bank has the ability to foreclose on your property. That’s what we’re thinking about doing.” On December 14, 2011, Woodville Mall Realty, the owner of the mall at the time, and Mehran Kohansieh, an officer, member, manager and owner of Woodville Mall Realty, were served with a Notice of Building Code Violations. On December 16, 2011, a complaint for temporary and permanent injunctive relief was filed against Woodville Mall Realty and others, including Kohansieh, in the court of common pleas. On June 7, 2012, a default judgment and permanent injunction were granted against Woodville Mall Realty and Kohansieh, as well as other defendants associated with the mall. The court noted in the default judgment that the city had established “by clear and convincing evidence” that the mall had moisture, mold and water damage throughout the building; the sprinkler system was non-functional in parts of the mall and may be inadequate in the event of fire; the owner had not paid for gas to heat the mall and that the pipes of the sprinkler system may freeze over the winter, causing further damage to the fire suppression system; the roof had failed leaving two large holes and numerous leaks in other parts of the roof; and water had caused damage to the floor in the mall, soaking the carpet and buckling the flooring in some sections, causing unsafe walking conditions. The court noted that the dilapidated conditions were in violation of several Wood County Health and Ohio Building codes. Since the owners failed to make repairs to comply with the codes, the court prohibited the defendants from allowing public access to the mall until the violations are corrected to the satisfaction of the Wood County Combined General Health District, the Wood County Building Inspection, and the Northwood Fire Department. On January 17, the city filed the complaint against the owners of the mall. Named as defendants were Woodville Mall Realty Management, LLC; Kohansieh; Ohio Plaza Shopping Center, LLC, which purchased the mall from Woodville Mall Realty on December 27, 2012; Soleyman Ghalchi, an officer, member, manager and owner of Ohio Plaza; Woodville, LLC; and other defendants known as John Doe’s who may have a current or future interest in the mall. The owners could not be reached for comment.

Sidewalks finally coming By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon City council on Monday awarded a bid to a contractor to install sidewalks on the north side of Navarre Avenue between Coy and Lallendorf roads, to improve safety for pedestrians. Council accepted a bid of $89,210 from Cash Services, LLC., Genoa, to furnish labor, materials and equipment for the sidewalk project. Cash Services was the lowest of six bids submitted for the project and opened by the department of public service on Oct. 2. Midwest Contracting, Inc., Holland, submitted a bid for $126,162.50. Quinn Con-

crete Construction, Inc., Toledo, submitted a bid for $131,980. Smith Paving and Excavating, Inc., Norwalk, Ohio, submitted a bid for $115,855. KF Construction and Excavating, Inc., Clyde, Ohio, submitted a bid of $112,800, and Audia Construction, Milford, Michigan, submitted a bid of $119,547. Despite the disparity in the bid between Cash Services and the other five companies, the unit costs submitted by Cash are in line with typical commercial sidewalk repair, according to the Department of Public Service. The project has been greatly anticipated by a group of disabled residents,

Sidewalks Continued from front page many in wheelchairs, who demonstrated on the road two years ago to raise awareness of their plight to get to nearby shops and grocery stores in the area. Many have had to travel in the street due to a lack of sidewalks. “This is a project we’ve been watching fairly closely and I think it’s ready to happen,” said Mayor Mike Seferian. “We believe the $89,000 represents a very good cost to the property owners and we expect most will take part in having this contractor do this work at that rate. It would be hard to do the work on your own much cheaper. It represents the cost of the entire mile going all the way to Lallendorf Road. However, we believe the first half would be installed this year, and the second half would be completed by the middle of next year.” Councilman Jim Seaman asked what the cut off date would be to pour concrete due to cold weather. “Typically, you can go all the way until the end of November,” said Public Service Director Paul Roman. “But usually in December, you have to start covering concrete to allow it to cure properly. Usually, the first week in December is the cut off. But sometimes you get good years when it’s still warm and we can keep going.” The first half of the sidewalks will be installed from Coy to just in front of Walmart, added Roman, and will be usable by Christmas. “That work would be done by November 22,” said Roman. “Then everything else will be done by April 30 next year,” said Roman. “It’s likely sometime in May we’ll bring forth an assessment ordinance for the whole project, and usually you don’t do that until you know your true cost. This really was a very, very competitive bid. I really don’t think the public is going to see a better price. I think a lot of them now will elect to have the city do this work. It was probably a good idea to do it all as one big project. Larger quantity does help on unit price.” “I would have liked to see it all get done this year,” said Council President Tom Susor. “But the fact that it’s getting

Roman said the city’s Street Department also did some preliminary work on the project. “A lot of it was re-grading and drainage, raising catch basins, some relocation and adding fill to bring it up to grade. The value of it was between $20,000 and

$30,000. You do save money when you do it in-house as well,” he said. Just the north side of Navarre will get sidewalks because over 90 percent of it is developed. Only 50 percent of the south side of the road is developed.

Third-grade reading regulations unclear By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press Even as local third-graders wrapped up their state reading tests last week, educators say some parts of the new initiative remain confusing. The Third Grade Guarantee in full effect for the 2013-14 school year is part of the educational package put forward by Gov. John Kasich in the 2012 budget. The program is aimed at identifying kids who are falling behind in reading from kindergarten to third grade. Ohio’s Third Grade Reading Guarantee says that starting with students entering third grade this year, schools cannot promote to fourth grade students who score below a certain level on the state reading test. That level is slightly below the actual passing score on the state reading test, the Ohio Achievement Assessment. Genoa’s 95 third graders took the 2 ½ - hour computer test this past week. Results are expected back in three weeks. Daily reading intervention classes will be offered for those who don’t pass the test, Dennis Mock , superintendent, said. Then all third graders will take the test again in the spring. Parents will get some insight on the reading initiative at a PTO meeting this week led in part by Genoa Elementary Principal Brenda Murphy, Mock said. Guy Parmigian, superintendent of Benton-Carroll-Salem schools, says his district administrators are still searching for answers regarding the test results. He said district officials interpret the law to mean students will have to re-do third grade reading but can continue on to fourth grade with other students. Although some legislators he has spoken to maintain the kids cannot move on to the fourth grade at all if they don’t pass the test. The whole concept itself poses problems in B-C-S schools following the district’s restructuring to cut costs. The changes included closing three elementary schools. As a result, third graders are in the elementary building on the east side of Oak Harbor. Fourth graders go to classes at the middle school in the center of town.

The third grade reading guarantee is similar to one created at the fourth grade level about 10 to 15 years ago. The program grew troubled as school districts struggled with the retention issues and were forced to hire more teachers as a result, Mock said. It eventually fell by the wayside. Mock doesn’t see that happening this time around. “I don’t think this one is going away. They threw it up against the wall and I think it’s going to stick this time,” Mock

said. Still, Parmigian and his administrators say they are still on the search for clarification regarding the “burdensome” law in both the state legislature and Ohio Department of Education. “I think it’s well intended – making sure kids are able to read at the third grade level. But it takes away local control,” Parmigian said. “We know our kids. Everyone is different. We work on the best situation to help those kids.”

The second of two public meetings to discuss a 4.5-mill levy on the ballot in Harris Township is scheduled for Oct. 23 at the township fire station, 321 Rice St., Elmore. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. If passed, the levy will be in effect for five years and generate approximately $289,500 annually. Township trustees say the additional revenue will be used to fund round-the-clock emergency medical service by hiring paramedics. The township has been relying on part-time emergency medical technicians to be at the station from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and on volunteers during the evenings and weekends.

The Ottawa County Drug Task Force has seized more than 120 suspected marijuana plants from a residence at 1360 N. Main Street, Rocky Ridge. The task force, assisted by deputies of the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department and officers from the Rocky Ridge and Danbury Township police departments, executed a search warrant Oct 7 at the home and also seized processed marijuana, grow lights, timers, fans, fertilizer, and cash. The case will be presented to the county prosecutor. It is the second time in about a month that marijuana plants have been seized in Ottawa County. After receiving a tip from a caller on Sept. 5, sheriff’s deputies and the county drug task force removed 37 marijuana plants that were growing in a corn field along Stange Road, about 0.3-mile off State Route 105 in Harris Township. The estimated street value of the plants is $37,000. Persons with information about who planted the marijuana are asked to call the sheriff’s department at 419 734-4404.

District asking for income tax By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A public meeting to discuss an income tax ballot issue to fund operations of the Gibsonburg Exempted Village School District is scheduled for Oct. 29 at Hilfiker Elementary School. The meeting, planned to last one hour, will start at 7:30 p.m. Voters on Nov. 5 will decide a 0.75 percent income tax that will, if passed, generate approximately $750,000 annually during its 5-year duration. No new major expenditures are planned. “This is just to maintain what we have,” said Tom Peiffer, school superintendent. “We’ve lost $700,000 annually from the state starting in fiscal 2012 and 2013 and again this year. By the end of this year we’ll have lost $2.1 million in funding. This will replace that annual amount. That’s what we’re after.” Historically, the district has received about 70 percent or so of its funding from the state but that’s drifted slightly lower to about the mid-60 percent level, Peiffer said. The tax would be levied on district residents’ incomes, which the Ohio Department of Taxation defines for a school system as earned and self-employment income. Because pensions and Social Security benefits aren’t affected by the tax, and it’s not a property tax, school officials are hoping senior citizens and farmers may be more supportive. The district hasn’t asked voters for additional operating revenues since 1994, Peiffer said, adding a levy committee has been distributing informational fliers about the tax and he knew of no organized opposition to it. In May, Gibsonburg voters rejected a 1 percent, 10-year income tax by about 40 votes.

Planned Pethood offers free spaying in E. Toledo By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Planned Pethood is offering free spaying and neutering services for cats in the 43605 zip code area, which encompasses East Toledo. The non-profit animal rescue group received a grant from PetSmart Charities to pay for the services. Humane Ohio has also been offering free spay and neutering services in the 43605 zip code area, as well as in the 43609 and 43615 zip code areas for owned and “free roaming” (feral or stray) cats. Nikki Morey, executive director for Planned Pethood, said the 43605 zip code was chosen as its target area for the services because that is where the Toledo Area Humane Society receives the most calls about stray cats and unwanted litters. The group received a similar grant from PetSmart two years ago to spay and neuter cats in the 43609 zip code because of the high number of cats in that area, said Morey. “Through a concerted and concentrated effort in the 09 zip code, that area now has the lowest numbers,” she said. “We found out that the next zip code with the highest number of cats was in 43605. It is also, in square miles, one of the largest and most densely populated zip codes in the city. So that’s our next area of focus.” To find out if you qualify, call 419-8263499 or email pets@plannedpethood.org. “If calling, you will speak to a volunteer, and based on that conversation, an electronic voucher will be sent to a participating veterinarian. You have to show your ID at the vet’s to redeem the voucher,” she said. The animals are returned to the owner or caregiver after surgery. If the owner needs help finding homes for the animals, Planned Pethood will help them get adopted. Planned Pethood also has limited funding for those with litters of puppies or kittens that need to be spay/neutered as well

as adult dogs and cats. The program, Litter Patrol, allows those in the community to no longer have to find homes for litters of puppies or kittens. The group, formed in 1979, has also written a grant to spay and neuter dogs in the 43605 zip code because statistics compiled by the Lucas County Dog warden show that the highest number of stray and owner surrendered dogs in Toledo is from that area. Four million cats and dogs—about one every eight seconds—are put down in U. S. shelters each year. Often these animals are the offspring of family pets, even purebreds, according to Morey. “Maybe someone’s cat or dog got out just that one time or maybe the litter was intentional, but efforts to find enough good homes failed. Spay/neuter is the only permanent, 100-percent effective method of birth control for dogs and cats and a proven way to reduce the vast numbers of animals who are born only to die prematurely and without a family who loves them,” said Morey. Planned Pethood works with fifteen Northwest Ohio area veterinarians to provide the affordable spay/neuter services. Ordinarily, Planned Pethood offers free spay/neuters for low-income pet owners and subsidies for local hardship cases when funds are available. The mission statement of the group is “to reduce the overpopulation and suffering of dogs and cats through education and low-cost spay/neuter programs and to rescue, vet and place adoptable dogs and cats into good permanent homes.” The group relies on foster volunteers to keep unwanted cats and dogs in their homes until they are adopted. “All of the animals up for adoption stay in foster homes. That way, any donations that come to us go to our vet bills rather than the cost of having a shelter or physical building. That’s why it’s of vital importance that people recognize the work we’re doing proactively for the pet adoption program. The grant we have is a portion of our total budget,” said Morey.

Humane Ohio Humane Ohio, a non-profit organization that operates a low cost spay/neuter clinic and pet food bank in Toledo, is just completing its first year of free spay and neutering services for owned and free roaming cats in the zip code areas of 43605, 43609 (South Toledo) and 43615 (Central Avenue Strip area in Toledo), also funded by a grant from PetSmart Charities. It will continue offering the service into next year, according to Jill Borkowski, marketing director. “The grant will allow us to fix almost 3,000 cats – over a two year period,” said Borkowski. “It’s about 1,500 per year. The second year kicks off in November.” For more information, contact Humane Ohio at 419-266-5607 or email at clinic@humaneohio.org The group has its own veterinarians at the facility to spay and neuter. For a small fee, it also offers rabies and distemper vaccinations, as well as flea treatment, microchip, and nail trim, according to Borkowski. Appointments are required, though the facility accepts walk-ins for feral cat caregivers, said Borkowski. “We understand that feral cats usually have to be trapped, and the caregivers may not get another opportunity to catch them again,” she said. Spay/neuter surgeries are performed Monday through Friday at the facility at 3131 Tremainsville Road, Toledo. Cats need to be dropped off at 7:30 am on the day of their appointment. Walk-in appointments for free-roaming cats are available on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday if space is available in the spay/neuter schedule that day. Walk-ins should be dropped off at 8:30 a.m. Other services offered by the group include a pet food bank, which makes pet food available to free-roaming cat caretakers and pet owners who are financially strapped. The facility also sells winter cat shelters for $35.

There’s no jail strong enough to hold this Oregon man By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com

Saddoris pays for it His first six escapes were from the Oregon city jail in 1975 and 1976, and it led to political strife in the city and the resignation of Police Chief James Saddoris. “There was some really funny stuff about it, but it wasn’t really funny then,” Pollock said. “What’s funny is James Saddoris was the chief of police back then, and he ended up losing his job because of me. They made it to be some political thing — how I got out of Oregon’s jail six times, and they were looking for a reason to replace Saddoris anyhow and so they brought up the fact that some idiot broke out of jail six times. Pollock’s third escape from Oregon’s jail saw him walk through an unlocked garage door, and it came two days after he walked away for his second escape. In another escape, just prior to his 19th birthday, he sawed two bars out of the lower portion of cell No. 4, and Oregon police used tracking dogs, finding him just past Seaman Road across from the city building. Police believed that after sawing his way out, he crawled through the hall past the dispatcher and out the kitchen door. After his fifth escape from the Oregon jail, Pollock was apprehended and placed in the Lucas County jail, but it could not hold him long, either. While in Toledo, he caused a panic downtown after eluding 30 sheriff’s deputies and police officers for almost five hours while wearing prison khakis and handcuffs connected to a chain around his waist. A picture of the apprehension appeared on the front page of The Blade the following day. So, do you think the Oregon police department has disrespect for Pollock? Not so, says retired officer Russell Bell, an Oregon policeman from 1970-77. “I got to know him when he was just a 13-year-old kid,” Bell says. “Mark got in trouble with the police at a very early age and when he was about 17 or 18 years old, he sawed his way out of the Oregon jail on two separate occasions. He escaped from the Oregon police at least five times — just walked right out of the jail, and he spent half of his life in prison, but he’s never been a violent person.”

“

His life would read like a Hollywood mystery movie, but it’s 100 percent true...I’ve seen stuff in Hollywood that’s like stuff I actually lived with him.

“

There seemed to be no jail in Ohio that could hold Oregon resident Mark Pollock for very long. During a 20-year plus span, Pollock served multiple sentences in Ohio’s prisons, county and municipal jails, and 17 times he escaped. It all stemmed from a single marijuana bust when he was 17-yearsold. “I turned two joints into a 12-year prison sentence,” the now 57-year-old Pollock alleges. “I was young and stupid. I never really hurt anybody, even with all of my escapes. I managed to escape 17 times, and only once did it involve violence, and I didn’t hurt anybody. I threatened him, and he didn’t beat me, but I wouldn’t have hurt him. “Remember the cartoon with the dog and the wolf,” Pollock continued. “They would clock in and all day long the wolf would try to get the sheep and the dog would hit him with hammers and stuff, and then they would clock out. That’s the way I saw it — it was up to them to keep me in the jail and it was my job to get out. But we never really had any great animosity for each other or anything.” His escapes once got him a call from television talk show host Phil Donahue, but Pollock could not appear on television because he was incarcerated. He was the subject of a Paul Harvey radio show, and print media throughout Ohio had a field day with Pollock’s prowess getting out of jail. Everything Pollock went through — every court record, every newspaper article — is documented in several large scrapbooks. The scrapbooks include real photos and sketchings Pollock created while in jail. “It seems so all unreal, and I tell people about these things, and they are looking at me, ‘Yeah, right,’ but I can back it all up,” Pollock said. “There is nothing fictional about it. I pretty much got out of every jail they put me in. The thing was I wasn’t smarter or anything, but you have time to think, and I wanted out, and the trouble was every time I would escape I would only bury myself that much deeper. Escape was my only way out.” A Toledo Blade article dated Oct. 4, 1984 headlined, “He Has Escape Down; Getaway Needs Work,” and his getaways led him to Toronto and Florida.

Mark Pollock That doesn’t mean that Pollock has been an angel, either, Bell says. “When he was going through his teen years, he was into every independent drug that there was,” Bell said. “He is the nicest guy and always has been. The man has got a talent for drawing — he can sit down and freehand draw the most beautiful stuff that you’ve ever seen. He really is an artist. He’s really creative. Like I say, I’ve been at him for years to write his life story, and he always says, ‘Well, I don’t know how to get started, you know?’ “He and his sister are both adopted, and his parents couldn’t have been better parents. He just did a lot of stupid stuff, but some of it reads like a cartoon out of a Hollywood movie, I’ll tell you, and some of it is serious,” Bell said. Pollock, who also studied law in prison and always represented himself during court appearances, said “I was in there and I had nothing but time on my hands, so that’s what I did. I was completely selftaught or whatever. I would draw in there, and everybody would say, ‘Oh, when you get out, you could become a graphic artist.’ Then I found out, everything now is done by computer. I used to draw cars, but nobody hand draws cars anymore.” Escapes go statewide His escapes were not just limited to Oregon and Toledo. In February, 1976, he escaped from the Allen County jail, but was apprehended at a church three blocks away. He used a spoon and shoelace to unlock the door of a holding room, ran past a secretary who entered a vestibule between the holding room and the booking area and fled out the rear door, deputies told a Blade correspondent. The secretary was not injured. Ultimately, his escapes increased his bust for two marijuana joints to major felony prison time. Plus, while free, he was connected to a burglary and auto theft incident, which ultimately got him imprisoned at the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield. He said he was framed by the real culprit, a former friend who used Pollock as bait because of his record.

But, don’t let Pollock fool you when he says nobody was hurt — there were scuffles in small county jails in other parts of the state and he admits to assaulting an individual in Portage County. He even confessed to an unsolved murder in Portage County to get out of a Lucasville maximum-security prison. He didn’t commit the murder, but it could have brought closure to the family involved. The purpose to confessing to a crime he did not do — to find his way into a mental institution or a rural county jail, but it backfired. Acting as his own attorney, he defeated a local prosecutor and talked a jury into granting him an innocent plea due to insanity, but Common Pleas Judge George Martin put aside the case, declaring a mistrial, and sent him back to the maximum security prison to finish a 17½ to 45year sentence.

Where’s the book? Ultimately, a Columbus judge sympathized with Pollock, reviewing his records, and noted how the marijuana charge had developed into much more. Pollock is now back in Oregon living at the same home he grew up in, on Eastvale Street. “I believe with the right help, the man could write a best seller,” Bell said. “His life would read like a Hollywood mystery movie, but it’s a 100 percent true. For the seven years that I was a cop and the dealings that I had with him, I’ve seen stuff in Hollywood that’s like stuff I actually lived with him. ” Pollock says he has been approached about a book. The last proposal came from a University of Michigan English professor. “That’s when I was getting all that publicity,” Pollock said. “I turned it down at that time because there were people who had helped me with the escapes, and I didn’t want to get them in trouble. Also, I had to see the parole board in order to get out of prison, and the parole board wants to see rewards, and they don’t think kindly on people who have profited from their crimes. So, let’s say this lady wrote a book and it would have made any money, they would say, ‘Well, we’re going to give you a few more years to spend the money you’ve just earned,’ and I wouldn’t have gotten out and at that time. Getting out was more important.” Pollock has another idea — he would like to start a prison security company, and he has his own angle. “I thought I’d go in their jail, look around, write a little report, and charge them $100. I thought if I could figure out a way to get out of a building, I could figure out a way to get in. I said, the trouble is, the police see it through the police’s eyes, I see it through the criminal’s eyes. There is a different way of looking at things, I think.”

How are the schools? To the editor: “How are the Schools?” – that is usually the first question that is asked by individuals or businesses looking to move into a community. In the city of Northwood, we have a mixed answer to that question. As far as the quality of education goes, the support from the community and the commitment to our students from the board of education, the administration, the teachers and all of the staff, the answer is a resounding “outstanding.” However, from a facilities and buildings standpoint, unfortunately the answer is not as positive. As a parent who was fortunate to have had two kids start their first day in kindergarten at Northwood Schools and finish their high school years by getting their diploma from our district; and by having had the privilege of serving on the board of education for eight years, I have seen firsthand the care and time the district has taken to keep our buildings as functional and updated as possible. Unfortunately the infrastructure of 50plus-year-old buildings can only be held together with a “Band-Aid” for so long. I am proud of the hard work that the current board and administration have done to keep providing a quality education and terrific school experience for our kids. If we want this to continue, I would ask that you support the schools on the upcoming ballot and allow Northwood Schools to continue to be an “Excellent” school district that we have all come to expect and that we are so proud of. Scott Phelps Northwood resident and former school board president

Support urged To the editor: We are writing this letter as proud residents of Wood County. We are very fortunate to live in a place with such a high quality of life and sometimes, like many of us, we take it for granted. We shouldn’t. It is no accident that where we live is a place other areas in our state look to as an example of how to do things right, from economic development to local government that actually works. Historically, a critical part of what we have done right to maintain a high quality of life for all of us is the excellent human services that have been developed in our

county. We recognize our county as one that supports frugality, but also one that provides support for the things that work to enhance all of our lives. Now is one of the times where we all need to stand up and once again support something that is a vital part of our positive identity as a county – Wood Lane. Wood Lane provides very necessary basic services throughout the lifespan of individuals with developmental disabilities – from birth to the end of the life. Early Intervention Services support families as they teach and guide their children in achieving developmental milestones. Wood Lane School provides educational services to students from every school district in Wood County. These students require intensive supports to meet their medical and physical assistance needs as well as a quality education to reach their human potential. Adult Services, like all of Wood Lane’s services, support individuals to be as independent as possible so that they too may contribute to the well-being of our communities. Wood Lane’s focus is on developing and enhancing skills and competencies in work, home, and self-management. These services are not luxuries. They are necessary and we need to support them by voting “yes” for Wood Lane on Nov. 5. It has been 13 years since Wood Lane last asked us for additional financial support. In spite of increased demands for the services provided, Wood Lane has successfully demonstrated its ability to fulfill their mission while being careful stewards of our citizens’ tax dollars. We encourage everyone to vote yes and continue our commitment to these services that are so important to our quality of life in Wood County. Greg and Jen Clark Northwood

A fine tribute To the editor: After serving 33 years as a public official - 14 as a member of Elmore Village Council council and as Elmore mayor for 19 years- Lowell Krumnow was laid to rest last Friday. He touched the lives of nearly everyone in the community in one way or another. Whether it was the many festivals he

helped organize, a walk through the downtown area with its historical lighting and signage he was so passionate about placing there, or a walk or ride down the North Coast Inland Trail which would have never been possible without his endless efforts. Many tributes were paid to him as a person and mayor during his short illness and untimely death but the one that will stand out in many minds was the honor bestowed on him by the Woodmore High School students and staff. One of the most beautiful and poignant tributes was seeing more than 500 Woodmore students and faculty members standing silently and respectfully along Elmore Eastern Road as the procession passed by to honor the memory of the only Elmore mayor they had ever known. A Woodmore graduate, Lowell was one of the school’s more ardent public supporters. He always said, because of the strong Woodmore School District, the foundation for a strong Elmore community was being laid for years to come. I am only one of many that would like to say thank you to the Woodmore staff and students for that beautiful tribute that will last forever in our memories. Rick Claar Member of Elmore Village Council

Festival support To the editor: The 35th Annual Apple Festival was held Oct. 12-13. What a wonderful weekend filled with food, rides, crafts and entertainment. When we say that the festival and all of the great activities would not be possible without the help of generous sponsors and volunteers, we truly mean it. From the village departments, to the property owners, to the volunteers and vendors, it really takes everyone working together to make our festival the success that it is. We would especially like to recognize the Oak Harbor Hardware, National Bank of Ohio, Spangler Motors & US Bank for the use of their property for the festival. The Oak Harbor Area Chamber of Commerce would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for their contribution to this year’s festival: Candy Apple sponsors Carroll Township, Civil-

ian Marksmanship Program, McDonald’s, Magruder Hospital, National Bank of Ohio and the Village of Oak Harbor. Additional sponsors include ProMedica Bay Park Hospital, Buehler Excavating LTD, Commodore Perry Federal Credit Union, Community Markets, Croghan Colonial Bank, Health Management Solutions, Kocher & Gillum, Lake Erie Shores & Islands, Materion, Memorial Hospital, Molly Judge DPM, U.S. Bank and Zink Calls. Many thanks to other groups and individuals who helped and to everyone who came out. Valerie Winterfield Executive Director Oak Harbor Area Chamber of Commerce

Correction An article in the Oct. 14 issue of The Press about Lowell Krumnow, the former mayor of Elmore, incorrectly stated the Village of Woodville was involved in talks about forming a Joint Economic Development District. Only the townships of Harris and Woodville are involved in the talks with the Village of Elmore.

Make your next step one step closer to your goal We all make mistakes. There are things in the past we would have done differently. Unexpected challenges surface at the worst possible times. Problems arise that were never anticipated. There are various choices available to you and you’re not sure which path to take. If you get caught up in the past you will compromise your present and pollute your future. There are always things you would do differently in hindsight. Mistakes are never pleasant. Examine the past to understand what went wrong and why. Use it as a learning tool to move forward more successfully. Unless and until you understand the cause and effect connection from your past, you have no basis to make improvements. Take ownership of your actions. You are responsible for where you are. Blaming other people or circumstances sabotages your future. Whatever circumstances you are facing, feeling sorry for yourself is not only an

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden absolute waste of time; it drains your energy and contaminates your attitude. Regardless of your current situation, there are many others who have successfully overcome a similar predicament or made the best of it. If they can do it, you can also. Becoming overwhelmed and freezing in fear or doubt never works. Getting bogged down in paralysis by analysis provides you with a false sense of security that you are being prudently cautious. While you justify not taking the next step because you are busy analyzing all of your options, opportunities are passing you by. Worry doesn’t work. Worry is a con-

ditioned response that you have spent your life perfecting. You can worry as much as you want but it will be to no avail. All worry does is exhaust and frustrate you. Worry creates stress which leads to actual physical and mental ailments. Worry must be replaced by the action of taking the next step. Regardless of what has happened, what you have been through, the problems you face, or the obstacles you have to overcome, the most important thing for you to do is take the next step. This is positive action that moves you forward. Success requires self-monitoring. This is a constant awareness of what’s happening to you and why. Are you on track to reach your goals? If not, why not? What needs to be changed before taking the next step? Circumstances may not be ideal. All you can do is make the best decision you can with the facts at hand. Your objective is to keep moving forward toward your desired destination. Make adjustments as needed.

Your path to success is not a straight line. Each step you take should be directed toward a goal. Situations may blow you off course. Changes in direction will be required to avoid obstacles. Detours may be necessary to solve problems. Each step you take should be deliberate. Think before you act. Gather as much information as possible before making decisions. Seek advice from people who are where you want to be. Every journey, regardless of the length, is simply one forward step after another. It’s impossible to get to a destination by sitting in one place. You lose ground by walking backwards. You need to look forward in order to remain on course. If you are always looking behind you, you’ll never reach your destination. When in doubt just take the next step, no matter how small. It’s not magic. Giving up is never a valid option. If you fall, get back up, shake yourself off, and take the next step. Make this a habit. Set a good example for others.

Alzheimer’s Assn.

Day Center marks 20 years The Northwest Ohio Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association is celebrating 20 years of providing Adult Day Center services for those with Alzheimer’s and related dementias. The life of a caregiver for someone who has Alzheimer’s disease can be stressful and tiring. For those living with the disease, sometimes opportunities to interact become more difficult and infrequent. Regardless of whether the person with Alzheimer’s is a parent, spouse, friend or neighbor, and even when care is provided willingly with the utmost devotion, the task of helping someone live with Alzheimer’s can be demanding on the caregiver. In 1993, Alzheimer’s Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter took a progressive step to help caregivers meet the array of challenges they face, and to help ease the isolation those with the disease often experience by opening an Adult Day Center in their newly acquired offices at 2500 North Reynolds Rd. in Toledo. The Center offered a safe, supportive environment in which skilled, trained and compassionate staff members provided day care for those with Alzheimer’s and related dementias. In addition to companionship, participants received help with daily living activities and enjoyed mentally stimulating and enjoyable games, food and fun. The Day Center staff also delivered an invaluable gift to caregivers – respite – the opportunity to take a break from the demands of providing care while knowing their loved ones were safe and being cared for. The Chapter had essential support in turning the concept of the Adult Day Center into a reality. The Dana Corporation provided $10,000 of seed money. Original and current operating funds are provided by the Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio. In 2008, the Chapter opened a second Adult Day Center at 131 N. Wheeling St. in Toledo. The East Side center accommo-

dates up to 10 participants and offers the same range of services to residents of Oregon, Northwood, Genoa, Toledo and surrounding areas. According to Traci Holland, Respite Coordinator and Adult Day Center Supervisor, “Attending the Adult Day Center often delays or prevents premature placement in a long-term care facility. Many of our caregivers are in the workforce and need a safe place to bring their parents or spouses during the day while they are at their jobs. “We provide social and cognitive stimulation, as well as physical exercise that they may not get if they were home alone all day,” she said. “The caregivers have peace of mind knowing their family member is in a secure environment.” Holland added that often, the best part of her day is interacting with participants and families. “In some cases, families are socially isolated with limited social contact,” she said. “The interactions with staff, volunteers and other families are very supportive. Sometimes all they need is a hug or a smile. This goes for the Day Center participants as well.” Adult Day Center services are offered on a cost-share model. Operating costs are subsidized by the Lucas County Senior Services Levy, State of Ohio Alzheimer’s Respite Funds, State of Ohio block grant funding through a grant from the Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio, Inc. and the Monroe County (Mich.) Commission on Aging. Additional financial assistance may be available for those who are eligible for Ohio’s PASSPORT program and/or for those who qualify for benefits from Department of Veterans Affairs. Long-term care insurance may also provide coverage. Hours at the Wheeling Street Center are Monday through Friday 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Call 419-720-4940 for more information. The Reynolds Road Center is open Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Call 419-537-1999 for more information.

Tim Washington, with his great-grandchildren Dalen and Matthew, receive help from the Kinship Navigator Program.

Helping relatives raise kids Each year, about 1,500 grandparents and relatives raising children and 2,700 children receive help through the Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio’s Kinship Navigator Program. The program is designed to provide information on the dozens of community agencies that offer services for grandparents, aunts, uncles, brothers and sisters that are raising relative children. Some of those services include financial and health care assistance, regardless of income; legal questions, finding affordable childcare; managing a child’s anger and behavior issues; food and clothing re-

sources, recreational activities; alcohol and drug abuse issues. Tim Washington, who raises his great-grandchildren said, “My goal is for my great grandchildren to learn to take care of family first. The Kinship Navigator Program supports me in taking care of my great grandchildren.” According to the Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Task Force Report, the average age of grandparents in Ohio who raise and care for their grandchildren is 55.

Elder law questions to be answered at Caregiver Expo Do you or a loved one have questions about estate planning and administration, Medicaid, guardianship or other elder law issues? Visit the Caregiver Expo Saturday, Nov. 2 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at Parkway Place, 2592 Parkway Plaza in Maumee and ask your question of an elder law attorney. Mark Lindburg from Legal Aid of Western Ohio will be part of a panel discussion at the event that includes questions from the audience. Following is a list of frequently asked power of attorney questions: Question: Why do I need a Power of Attorney (POA)? Answer: A POA is a document that designates a person to make all your

business decisions (including your banking) and decisions for your welfare, in the event you become incapacitated. A full power of attorney can avoid the need for a guardianship if you should become incompetent either through Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, coma, etc. Question: Are there different types of POAs? Answer: There are three main types of POAs. First, is the business POA wherein the grantor empowers a trusted person to handle his business affairs. Second, is a Springing POA, which is a specific type of business POA. This document empowers someone only after the occurrence of a specific event (such as incapacity of the grantor).

Third, is a Healthcare POA, which empowers someone to make medical decisions for you if you can’t make them yourself. Question: When I’m admitted to the hospital/nursing home do I have to have the original POA? Answer: It depends on what you need done. With medical POAs, copies are as good as originals and can be used to make medical decisions for you. For business POAs you must have the original notarized document for your POA to make financial arrangements for your care. Question: Do POAs expire? Answer: It depends on the type of POA and the language used in the document. Most POAs are durable in nature and

therefore would not expire unless the grantor dies, the grantor revokes it, or a court revokes it. There are some POAs that, by the language in the document, set certain durations or names an event, which when and if it occurs would terminate the POA. Question: What if my appointee uses the POA for his own benefit? Answer: There is a fiduciary duty for the person appointed as power of attorney to act in the grantor’s best interest. This concept is codified in the Ohio Revised Code and if such an event happens, the appointee could be guilty of theft, conversion, fraud, etc. For clarification of these answers or for additional information about POAs, contact a lawyer.

Are you prepared to be a caregiver to a family member? By Carol Durnwald RN, MSN Hospice of Northwest Ohio

ing, caregivers are often eager and happy to help. They are simply doing what needs to be done for a loved one. It is difficult for a caregiver to see his or her care as work. However, realizing that you are a caregiver can help you find and accept the support you need to help you better care for your loved one and yourself.

An estimated 22 percent or 46 million Americans provide 37 billion hours of unpaid care for an adult family member or friend who is ill, disabled or elderly. In the United States, more than 75 percent of needed care is provided by family caregivers. Caregiving spans all economic and racial groups. Most caregivers are women over the age of 45. Forty percent of caregivers are raising children; 64 percent work full or part time. On average, caregivers provide 12 hours of care weekly over a 4-½ year period. Often caregivers are gripped in the cycle of caregiving; yet do not understand the role they are in.

Q. How do I know if I am a caregiver? Caregiving is diverse. Your role may be ever changing. Do you regularly do any of the following for an unable loved one? • Cook, clean, buy groceries, do laundry • Help bath, dress, transfer in and out of bed • Make appointments, drive to and attend appointments • Manage medications • Manage bills, mail and paperwork • Organize daily care or take on crisis management If you answered yes to one or more of

Q. Am I a caregiver? Not an easy question to answer. Caregivers do not usually think of themselves as caregivers. In the early stages of caregiv-

the above, you are a caregiver. Q. Am I prepared to be a caregiver? Most who care for an adult loved one, do not feel prepared for the complex responsibilities, challenges and deadlines required. There are five basic steps to help you in your role as caregiver. • Understand the diagnosis. By learning about the illness or condition your loved one has, you will be more able to plan and care for their needs. • Talk about finances and health care wishes. Although these topics may be difficult to discuss, planning ahead for both can help prevent future misunderstandings and heartache. Difficult decisions are even more difficult, if not impossible, to make during a crisis. • Hold a family meeting. Bring together family and friends involved in the caregiving process. Discuss what the caregiver needs and who can best meet those needs.

Create a written plan. • Learn about and use community resources. • Use the support that you have. Caregivers often say they don’t need help, while they are struggling to maintain their life and the life of the care receiver. It is vitally important not to become isolated as a caregiver. Recognizing yourself in the role of a caregiver can help you be a better caregiver. No matter what stage of caregiving you are in, following the above steps can help you and your love one through this important journey. The work of caregiving can be daunting, but you do not have to face it alone. Caring for the Caregiver Classes and Hands-on Caregiving Classes are available through Hospice of Northwest Ohio. Visit www.hospicenwo.org to see a list of currently scheduled sessions and learn more about them, or call 419-661-4001.

Assessment tool helps avoid the dangers of caregiver distress they escalate. Included in the program are two new tools: the “Are You a Caregiver Quiz,” which is designed to help a family caregiver self-identify and recognize the role of a caregiver, and the “Family Caregiver Distress Assessment,” adapted for the Home Instead Senior Care network by Dr. Peter Vitaliano of the University of Washington. The assessment allows caregivers to determine their risk for distress and resulting emotional and physical issues, including depression, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. “So many spouses and adult children are unaware of their potential risk of caregiver distress because they don’t see themselves as caregivers,” said Scott Rozanski, a local Home Instead Senior Care owner in the greater Toledo area. “These new resources enable them to understand their role, the stresses they may face as a

Nearly one-third of adults living in the greater Toledo area are family caregivers who could be at risk for heart disease, diabetes, depression and various other physical and emotional maladies as a result of caregiver distress, a potentially dangerous condition brought on by the pressures of caring for a senior loved one. Studies increasingly point to caregiving as a leading stressor for families. In fact, one U.S. study revealed that more than half (52.8 percent) of those caring for individuals with diseases including cancer or Alzheimer’s had scores indicating depression. In response to this growing issue, the local Home Instead Senior Care office has launched a public awareness campaign – Family Caregiver Stress Relief at FamilyCaregiverStressRelief.com – to help family caregivers determine if they are at risk for distress and to minimize problems before

caregiver, and how that stress might lead to more serious health effects.” A recent Home Instead Senior Care study discovered that caregivers are prone to hiding their emotions and, as a result, their health suffers. Approximately 74 percent of caregivers who hide their feelings report fatigue, 53 percent report difficulty sleeping, 37 percent report depression, and 30 percent weight gain or loss. Research shows that certain characteristics make family caregivers more vulnerable to caregiver distress, the top being: • Gender: Women report more psychological distress than men (however, male caregivers have more negative physiological responses to caregiving, including higher blood sugar and insulin levels, poorer cholesterol and immune function, and obesity). • Reluctance to ask for help: Caregivers who won’t ask for help are setting them-

selves up for the kind of exhaustion that can lead to distress. • Chronic illness: Caregivers who are already sick or have existing medical conditions, such as coronary disease, hypertension and cancer, are more vulnerable to additional negative health effects resulting from caregiver stress. “It’s important for caregivers to understand that stress can impact one’s ability to care. If they don’t care for themselves, they may put their senior loved ones at risk. Whether it’s support groups, stress management techniques or respite help, caregivers need to realize the importance of managing their health, too,” Rozanski said.

Bird observatory celebrates 20th year

Teaching Whooping Cranes to fly south a mission of honor Man learned to fly studying birds. So, when some endangered birds needed to learn how to fly south, Joe Duff thought it only fitting man provide a helping hand, or a plane to lead the way. Duff was the keynote speaker at the 20th anniversary banquet of the Black Swamp Bird Observatory held Saturday at the Catawba Island Club. He told the crowd of 150 the remarkable story of how researchers and pilots have taught Whooping Cranes how to migrate. Duff was also celebrating a 20th anniversary. In 1993, he and William Lishman raised and led 18 Canada geese 400 miles from Lishman’s Ontario home to Virginia. Those birds returned to Lishman’s property the following spring, proving that using an ultralight aircraft could help researchers increase the chance of survival for endangered avian species. That story was told in Columbia Pictures hit movie Fly Away Home. The two formed Operation Migration the following year, raised funds and honed their techniques. They have since led Trumpeter Swans, Sandhill Cranes and Whooping Cranes south. The Whooping Crane is one of North America’s most endangered birds and, at five-foot tall, it is the tallest. There were only 15 birds in the wild in the early 1940s. Since then, a consortium of private and governmental agencies has succeeded in increasing the numbers to 200 to 300. So, why does man have to teach Whooping Cranes how to fly south? “The problem is that Whooping Cranes, like a lot of birds, learn migration routes by following their parents,” Duff said. “So, if you try to reintroduce them into the wild that parent generation is gone…There are no sign posts, no history books, no maps. It’s just one bird to the next, so it’s lost forever.” Without migration to warmer climes, many cranes would be unlikely to survive northern winters. Teaching a crane to follow a plane is a complicated process, Duff said. It starts in Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Maryland. Eggs from captive cranes are turned by hand three times a day while listening to the sounds of an aircraft and an adult crane. They emerge imprinted to follow the sounds. Then they are shipped by plane—in one instance a Lear Jet—to White River, Wisconsin for training. The goal is to return the cranes to the

A pilot for Operation Migration leads a ﬂock of Whooping Cranes south. (Photo courtesy of www.operationmigration.org) wild so researchers are careful to assure they don’t become comfortable with the human form. All workers wear white suits covering themselves from head to toe while interacting with the cranes. When finally freed, the cranes will be afraid of humans like they should be. Flight training begins by using a Whooping Crane puppet and a plane with the wings removed to lead the fledglings around a circular track and condition them to follow the sight and sound of the aircraft. The camouflage is also important for another reason. “When it grows up and wants to breed you want to make sure it thinks it’s a Whooping Crane,” Duff said. Some cranes had made breeding advances to Sandhill Cranes as well as humans. When it’s time to fly south, an army of volunteers is needed. There are families who offer resting stops every 50 to 100 miles along the 1,285 mile journey from central Wisconsin to the St. Marks and Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuges in the Florida panhandle. There are road crews who drive ahead of the plane-led flock with their trucks, trailers and suits to set up pens and assure no humans are in sight. And, there are the pilots.

by John Szozda The trip south usually takes two to three months. The one underway now has eight birds. The return trip in the spring, when the birds fly without man’s guidance, typically takes about eight days. Duff was a commercial photographer before becoming enamored with the avian world. “It’s fun. You get to wear a costume. You get to fit into their society and that’s an unusual honor because that society has been running for millions of years.” Duff has spent 20 years working with geese, swans and cranes. He welcomed the chance to deliver the keynote address for BSBO’s 20th anniversary, saying he has admired the work the organization has done in preserving habitat, researching birds and promoting its mission through the Biggest Week in American Birding. Kim Kaufman, BSBO executive director, summarized the group’s impact on

birding since its humble start in 1993 when Julie and Mark Shieldcastle opened a small office in Oak Harbor. The group prides itself on research and education. In 20 years, it has banded 571,883 birds which Kaufman said “is a tremendous tool for bird conservation.” BSBO has also studied hawk migration for 18 years and is completing the Ohio Winter Bird Atlas, the first such publication in the country, and is working on a Spanish language bird guide. BSBO also founded the Ohio Young Birders Club for ages 12 to 18. Kaufman said this year’s spring festival, The Biggest Week in American Birding, drew some 80,000 visitors to the wetlands of Northwest Ohio and had an estimated economic impact of $37 million. All this work couldn’t be done without volunteers and Kaufman said volunteers have logged more than 120,000 hours in the past 20 years. The organization has garnered national attention having been featured on Dirty Jobs and CBS Sunday Morning. Comment at zoz@presspublications.com

Film, concert highlight Civil War tribute Audiences are invited to leave their 21st century cares behind and step back into time as the Pemberville Freedom Area Historical Society presents A Civil War Tribute Live! In the Pemberville Opera House Friday and Saturday Nov. 1 and 2. On Friday evening at 7 p.m., noted historian Dr. Robert Goulding will discuss “Andrews’ Raiders – Their Quest for The General.” Andrews Raid, or the Great Locomotive Chase, as some call it, is arguably one of the great railroad adventure stories of all time. On April 12, 1862, the War Between the States had been under way one year, when a band of 22 Union soldiers disguised as civilians, under the leadership of a spy and contraband merchant, James J. Andrews, worked their way 200 miles behind the Confederate lines. Their mission was to board and steal a northbound Confederate locomotive on the Georgia State Western & Atlantic Railroad, take it north and burn the bridges and tear up track and telegraph lines behind them. Just short of their goal, the Raiders were captured; several were hung and the rest imprisoned. All but one of the Raiders hailed from Ohio – many were from Northwest Ohio, including one from Pemberville, Sgt. Elihu Mason. The raid became the subject of a 1956 movie entitled “The Great Locomotive Chase,” starring Fess Parker, which will be shown immediately following Dr. Goulding’s presentation. A replica train setup of “The General” will also be set up. Admission to the presentation and film is free. On Saturday, The Dodworth Saxhorn Band – billed as America’s premier 19th century brass band -- take the stage at the Opera House at 7:30 p.m. to present a Civil War Commemoration and Veterans Salute. Formed in 1985 by Alexander Pollack, the band is a re-creation of the community brass bands popular in the mid-1800s. The ensemble of up to 17 members dress the part and perform on antique brass valve horns and drums built between 1840 and 1880. Most of their numbers are original to the era and were obtained from the Library of Congress and other collections, while

Michael Ando to be inducted The 2013 Birmingham Hall of Fame’s 37th Annual Inductee and Scholarship Banquet will be held Sunday Oct. 20 at St. Stephen School Hall, 2018 Consaul St. in East Toledo. The celebration will begin at 4:30 p.m. with a social hour. A Chicken Paprika and Pig in the Blanket dinner will be served family-style at 6 p.m. Guest speaker for this event is Chris Bergeron, head coach of Bowling Green State University’s men’s ice hockey team. An article in last week’s Press highlighted inductees Stephen Junga, Jason Way, Glen Mesteller, and the late Joseph Tinta. Michael Joseph Ando was inadvertently omitted from the list of inductees. Ando will be honored as an Athlete and Distinguished Citizen. Ando has been a life-long East-Sider. He was born in Toledo on June 8, 1959 and lived in Oregon until he married Gayle Fursdon in 1972. They are the parents of three children, all of whom attended Waite High School. They also have four grandchildren. Ando attended Oregon schools and participated in football at Fassett Junior High and Clay High School. He was starting offensive tackle at both Fassett and Clay. He was also a starting center for the Fassett basketball team and played Little League baseball, where he was a pitcher. After high school, Ando received a degree from Owens College. Since 1975, he has lived on Caledonia Street in the Birmingham neighborhood. During this time, he served as a councilman at St. Stephen’s Parish for some 13 years and has been a helper in the kitchen at St. Stephens for 34 years, helping out during all the major dinners that the church has had, including the Birmingham Ethnic Festival. He joins his father John Ando; uncles Paul Zam and Joe Kovesdi; aunt Lola Zam, and cousins Joe Kovesdi, Bob Kovesdi and Paul Zam Jr. in the honor of being inducted into the Birmingham Hall of Fame.

The Dodworth Saxhorn Band is a recreation of one of America’s ﬁrst all-brass bands - the Dodworth Band, which dominated the New York music scene from 1836 to 1891. Based in Ann Arbor, Mich, the band entertains using antique brass valved horns and drums built between 1840 and 1880. others have been edited for clarity and errors or scored as they would have been for the time. Based in Ann Arbor, the band performs in schools, universities, theaters, orchestra halls and opera houses throughout the eastern United States and Canada. They also play regularly at Greenfield Village of The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mich., as well as at Victorian Civil War balls, historical re-enactments, living history events, and vintage baseball games. The band provided music for Ken Burns’ popular nine-part “Baseball” film series that aired on PBS. Their single, “Gee, It’s A Wonderful Game” is featured on the series’ original soundtrack. (Listen to a clip, or buy it at Amazon.com.) Their library includes copies of music manuscripts and early arrangements from the Baseball Hall of Fame, numbers that span the early years of baseball from mid-

The Brunner Campus in Genoa is hosting a women’s self-defense class Oct. 21 in Genoa. The class runs from 7 to 9 p.m. and costs $15 per person. Each class member will receive a free cylinder of pepper spray. The class will focus on some basic defense moves as well as offer participants the opportunity to purchase new protective gear styled especially for women, according to Pam Zimmerly of Damsel in Defense, who is leading the class. Zimmerly hooked up with Brunner Campus owner Joy Moritz when Moritz stopped by the Damsel in Defense table at a recent Fall Fest held at the building. Moritz said the vendor offered another opportunity for her and her husband to bring educational and meaningful programs to the area. “October is really the perfect month to take this on,” Zimmerly said. “It is domestic violence awareness month and there’s a lot of information out there about protecting yourself.” According to national crime statistics, one in five women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime. An aggravated assault occurs every 35 seconds. And college women are four times more likely to be assaulted. Zimmerly got in the ground floor of the company more than a year ago. She was at a vendor’s fair when she heard an unusual zapping noise in the distance. She looked over and saw a woman holding a mini blue stun gun in her hand, demonstrating its easy use to onlookers. She talked to the woman and was instantly encouraged by the prospect of bringing the self-defense gadgetry to others herself. The company goal is three fold: To equip women with self-defense tools, empower them to protect themselves and educate them by encouraging them to back up purchases with self-defense training. The merchandise line includes an array from stun guns, stun batons, personal alarms and various forms of emergency kits. To reserve your seat at Monday’s class, send an email to brunnercampus@aol.com with your name, email address and phone number. Payment can be made on arrival.

Goldenrods add showy splash of golden beauty to fall gardens By J.K. DePeal Garden Writer news@presspublications.com

Get Growing

The countrysides of Northwest Ohio are now aglow with the colors of fall wildflowers. Shades of royal purple, pure white, and bright gold give us an autumn show before the stark, gray days of winter set in. Brightest of these fall flowers is the regal goldenrod. These wild beauties have been domesticated and improved, and are now available in many varieties to be grown in your perennial gardens. Domesticated varieties are available from nurseries, garden centers and plant catalogs and range from a few inches tall to several feet tall. In form, these domesticated types come in upright with branching stems and spikes of tiny golden flowers, plumes, or loose clusters of blooms. Like their wild cousins, these goldenrods will grow in poor soil, but they thrive abundantly in good soil. They are also drought-tolerant and do not need staking. When choosing goldenrods for your garden, be sure to check the various types carefully. Some domestic versions are “clumping” varieties and will grow in one spot for years without needing to be di-

vided. Other types may be invasive and will spread through the garden crowding out other plants. Also, give attention to the height of your selection as some types will grow several feet tall. Tallest of the domesticated goldenrods is Solidaga rugos, often called wrinkled goldenrod. This variety has large, rounded leaves and hairy stems. Its golden-flowered panicles are held erect over its tall stem and foliage. This is a fine specimen variety that can be placed at the corners of a deck or patio. Or, it makes a great focal point in the center of an island bed or at the back of a tall growing perennial garden. A very showy goldenrod is Solidaga speciosa. It grows to about three feet and has long, billowing, golden plumes. It is somewhat invasive but does well in a fall bed with mounding flowers such as mums or low-growing shrubbery. Solidaga rigida is called “stiff goldenrod.” It grows to five feet and bears flat

sprays of pale, greenish-gold flowers. It forms clumping roots and is not invasive. Rigida is lovely in a display of red, yellow, and orange flowers (hot colors), or with contrasting blooms of blue and purple. Solidaga juncea bears plumes of flowered panicles and Solidaga odora is a scented variety of goldenrod. For a “domesticated wildflower garden” look try any of these varieties in a bed of Black-eyed Susans, asters, and coneflowers. This garden is a fabulous butterfly magnet. Goldenrods generally have no serious pest or disease problems. Also, contrary to some belief, goldenrod pollen is not responsible for causing hay fever. This is caused by a plant called ragweed, which flowers and produces pollen at the same time as goldenrod. Whatever variety you choose, goldenrods are an easy care, hardy flower that will add a showy splash of golden beauty to your garden in the late summer and fall months before the long, cold months of winter. Whenever I see goldenrods begin to bloom, my taste buds remind me that it is time once again to start serving a favorite fall dish that I was first introduced to by a favorite aunt. She prepared this delicious treat for us as a Sunday brunch and she would wait until fall to serve it because the

elegant golden garnish looked so much like goldenrod flowers. Aunt Gladys called this dish “Autumn Goldenrod Eggs” and her recipe is: 6 boiled eggs 3 cups milk 4 tbsp. butter 4 tbsp. flour Salt and pepper to taste ¼ cup finely minced sweet onion 1 tbsp. paprika 6 plain, whole wheat, or multi-grain slices of toast, English muffins, etc. Over low heat, melt the butter and blend in the flour and salt and pepper. Slowly add the milk stirring the mixture constantly until it thickens. Separate the yolks from the whites of the boiled eggs, chop the whites and add them to the sauce mix. Set aside and keep warm. Crumble the egg yolks. Arrange the toast, English muffins, etc. on plates for serving. Pour the warm sauce over the toast, sprinkle crumbled egg yolk and a pinch of paprika over the top. Aunt Gladys always served her Autumn Goldenrod Eggs with homemade bread and eggs from her own chickens but I have to admit this dish is delicious, satisfying, and beautiful even with store-bought ingredients and, now that the goldenrod season is here, a nice treat for fall.

Halloween fun and surprises await at BOO! on the Boardwalk Magee Marsh, located near Oak Harbor, will hold the 5th Annual BOO! on the Boardwalk event Saturday, Oct. 26 from 6-8 p.m. In case of heavy rain, the event will be held inside the Sportsmen’s Migratory Bird Center at the marsh.

There will also be pumpkin decorating, games, a bat craft, and touchy feely boxes. Visitors are invited to enjoy a cup of cider and a donut before they leave. Magee Marsh is located at 13229 W.

Jumping Pumpkins “What do you do with all those pumpkins?” It’s a question the Toledo Zoo hears each year after the fall-time fun of Pumpkin Path and Little Boo. The pumpkins will provide enriching experiences for many zoo animals on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 26-27 at Jumping Pumpkins festivities. Animals from monkeys and otters to cassowaries and even elephants will find pumpkins all around their habitats. Some will make a meal, and some will make a mess, but all of them will interact with their environments and engage in naturalistic behaviors. Pumpkins are provided courtesy of Fleitz Farms, Myer Farms and Oldcastle Inc. For a complete schedule of events, visit www.toledozoo.org.

Keep young boys and ghouls safe on the trick-or-treat trail Halloween is an exciting time of year for kids, and to help ensure they have a safe holiday, the American Academy of Pediatrics offers these helpful tips: All dressed up Plan costumes that are bright and reflective. Make sure that shoes fit well and that costumes are short enough to prevent tripping, entanglement or contact with flame. Consider adding reflective tape or striping to costumes and Trick-or-Treat bags for greater visibility. Because masks can limit or block eyesight, consider non-toxic makeup and decorative hats as safer alternatives. Hats should fit properly to prevent them from sliding over eyes. Look for costumes, wigs and accessories that are labeled flame-resistant. If a sword, cane, or stick is a part of the costume, make sure it is not sharp or too long to prevent injuries if the child stumbles or trips.

Get flashlights with fresh batteries for all children and their escorts. Do not use decorative contact lenses without an eye examination and a prescription from an eye care professional. While the packaging on decorative lenses will often make claims such as “one size fits all,” or “no need to see an eye specialist,” obtaining decorative contact lenses without a prescription is both dangerous and illegal. This can cause pain, inflammation, and serious eye disorders and infections, which may lead to permanent vision loss. Carving a niche: Small children should never carve pumpkins. Children can draw a face with markers and then parents can do the cutting. Consider using a flashlight or glow stick instead of a candle to light your pumpkin. If you do use a candle, a votive candle is safest. Candlelit pumpkins should be placed on a sturdy table, away from curtains and

other flammable objects, and should never be left unattended. Home safe home To keep homes safe for visiting trickor-treaters, parents should remove from the porch and front yard anything a child could trip over such as garden hoses, toys, bikes and lawn decorations. Check outdoor lights and replace burned-out bulbs. Sweep wet leaves or snow from sidewalks and steps. Restrain pets so they do not inadvertently jump on or bite a trick-or-treater. On the trick-or-treat trail • A parent or responsible adult should always accompany young children on their neighborhood rounds. If your older children are going alone, plan and review the route that is acceptable to you. Agree on a specific time when they should return home. Only go to homes with a porch light on

and never enter a home or car for a treat. Because pedestrian injuries are the most common injuries to children on Halloween, remind trick-or-treaters: • Stay in a group and communicate where they will be going. • Carry a cell phone for quick communication. • Remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk. • If no sidewalk is available, walk at the far edge of the roadway facing traffic. • Never cut across yards or use alleys. • Only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks (as recognized by local custom). Never cross between parked cars or out driveways. • Don’t assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing trick-ortreaters. Just because one car stops, doesn’t mean others will. • Law enforcement authorities should be notified immediately of any suspicious or unlawful activity.

Finances 101 Credit Unions in Northwest Ohio have partnered with Bowling Green State University and the Office of Ohio Treasurer of State, Josh Mandel to help set young people on the right financial path with a lifesized interactive game full of life lessons through “Finances 101: Walk the Walk, Talk the Talk.” More than 650 high school students from 16 Northwest Ohio schools (20 classes) participated in a recent event at BGSU. By completing the session, students learned about a number of things including how earnings impact buying decisions, what it costs to run a household, and how to prevent spending beyond their means. Students across Ohio and the nation can experience these same situations through the online version at www.Finances101theGame. org. Participation in either version is at nocost to students or schools. The Northwest Chapter of the Ohio Credit Union League is a local trade association representing 35 local credit unions. Schools attending included Genoa, Penta Career Center and Rossford.

essage of the

An Old Testament figure who struggles with God only argumentatively, his case against God is a pretty good one. By God's own admission, Job is the most upright man on earth, and yet, God allows Satan to take everything from Job, including his property, his family and even his health, over a wager with Satan. And thus Job calls God to account for this. The very fact that the Book of Job is in the Bible seemingly attests to the fact that God admires those who would question and challenge Him. The standard, "pious" interpretation of the Book of Job is

Oregon

eek: Wrestling with God that Job never questions his faith in God, but patiently endures the many afflictions sent his way. However, careful reading of this challenging book actually reveals that the majority of the book is devoted to Job challenging God's justice, and as it were, wrestling with God. Sometimes, our prayers can be a challenge to God - and God is alright with that. He's certainly big enough to handle any challenge. Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. - R.S.V. Job 7.11
