Oregon rejects hand-held speed camera program Oregon’s Safety Committee recently rejected a proposal to implement a handheld speed camera program for the police department. Councilman Tim Zale, chairman of the safety committee, said Blue Line Solutions, which operates the program, approached city officials. “They wanted to meet me and City Administrator Mike Beazley to present their program to us,” said Zale. “I felt obligated to present it to council and the police department. I didn’t necessarily agree with it. We had a safety committee meeting on it. No one was in favor of it. I’m fine with that.” The Toledo Police Department has a hand-held camera program. “It’s kind of a neat program, but Toledo kind of ruined it for everyone,” he said. Police are supposed to be visible to motorists when using the device. But Toledo has come under fire with allegations they are hiding when using the camera. “There are officers hiding, giving people multiple tickets in a week when they never saw a police car. It’s really not an excuse because if you’re speeding, you’re speeding. But I get it,” he said. In addition, Zale said the city doesn’t need the program because there are few areas with speeding issues. “I don’t know if there are areas in the city that are so difficult for us to do speed enforcement without a tool like this,” said Zale. “I know there are very busy parts on Navarre Avenue and very busy parts on Woodville Road. Sometimes it’s extremely difficult for police to get violators without risking their own necks or anybody else on those roads. That’s the advantage of this.”

Money grab He also doesn’t want to give the public the perception that “this is nothing but a money grab.” Last year, the program in Toledo generated nearly $2.5 million in revenue. “It’s really never designed to be a money grab,” said Zale. “But it’s hard to stop.

Wood County Commissioners

Funding boosted for infrastructure By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The Wood County commissioners are transferring $2.1 million to a fund that will provide additional revenues for replacing and repairing roads and bridges. The commissioners announced last week they will transfer $1.8 million from

the county building and inspection account and shift $300,000 from the conveyance fee that funds the county office of economic development. In addition, the commissioners agreed to earmark $200,000 of revenue from the county sales tax annually to the new road/ bridge fund for five years and Cindy Hofner, clerk of courts, has committed $100,000 by transferring revenue from the auto title

fund. After the commissioners held two public hearings in May and heard a presentation on the condition of roads and bridges by John Musteric, county engineer, they approved a $5 increase to the vehicle license fee. The increase is scheduled to go into effect Jan. 1, 2019 and is estimated to gen-

...I don’t think things have changed that much in the streets in Oregon. We have been able to handle speed enforcement without having that kind of thing.

Because if you use this in a certain area, and an officer is going to be running his camera, just clicking off people violating at the speed parameter that we set, of course there would be multiple tickets versus one, two or three that he would normally do in a certain area. We don’t need the money, so we don’t need to do that. There were some pluses. But I favored the minuses. The vote was unanimous against the proposal.” Among the advantages: “It was at zero cost to us. It wouldn’t have cost the city one penny to have this program. They would have even covered the hours that the officer would be using their hand held gun. So it was at zero cost, and we would have gotten 60 percent of the proceeds,” he said. Zale was most opposed to the way Toledo has used it, he said, in a manner that was not visible to the motorist. “Toledo ruined it for other communities. People in Toledo are up in arms about the way Toledo Police have used the camera, hiding, with motorists not seeing a police car out in the open. You need to see the police car to think, ‘Uh oh. They’re running radar here.”’ In the end, the program just wasn’t needed, he said. “From my experience, I don’t think things have changed that much in the streets in Oregon.

erate about $650,000 a year. At the time they approved the fee increase, the commissioners committed to reviewing cash balances of some department funds to see if additional monies were available for road and bridges. Permit fees that help fund the building inspection department have reached $3.8 million, roughly equal to more than two years of the department’s current operating costs. The commissioners said that with three large industrial projects being announced in the county within the past four months, they anticipate permit revenue will exceed expenditures this year. The commissioners credited the cash balance to the department’s prudent management and the increased volume of permit fees over several years. They described construction in the county as “robust,” especially for commercial and industrial projects. In July, the County Commissioners Association of Ohio released its candidates briefing guide which notes counties are responsible for 26,081 – about 59 percent – of all bridges in the state and they maintain almost 29,000 county road miles. Citing figures from the County Engineers Association of Ohio, the briefing guide states 1,553 bridges have reduced road limits, 2,000 are eligible for replacement and 96 are closed. “Historically, Ohio has met a large portion of its transportation needs with a motor vehicle fuel (gas) tax and license fees. Counties and other local governments receive a share of both revenue sources. While the combination of gas taxes and license fees has worked well for Ohio’s counties and the state, inflationary increases in the cost of construction have effectively reduced the buying power of state and local funding to make necessary improvements to state and county roads and bridges,” the guide says.

Volunteers needed Serenity Farm Equestrian Center, located in Luckey, is looking for energetic, passionate volunteers to help with the therapeutic riding program.

Oregon rejects hand-held speed cameras Continued from front page handle speed enforcement without having that kind of thing.” Northwood The use of speed and red light cameras to catch motorists speeding or running red lights did not go over well in the City of Northwood, either. In 2005, Northwood approved a contract with Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc., to install and operate automated photo speed and red light enforcement cameras at the intersections of Woodville and Lemoyne roads, and Wales and Oregon roads. The city and Redflex shared a percentage of the revenue from traffic citations issued as a result of the cameras, which had caught thousands of motorists speeding or going through red lights. Fines were $110. Supporters, like the police chief, said the cameras improved safety at those intersections. He had backed it up with statistics that showed there were fewer fatal accidents at those locations. But in 2013, Northwood City Council voted against renewing the contract with Redflex.

Some on council were opposed because they said the city had started relying on the revenue to pay for non-safety projects, like a new salt dome. Others said motorists were avoiding the intersections, which in turn hurt business. As a result, the program ended and the cameras were removed. Appeal process Oregon Police Chief Mike Navarre said at the Oregon Safety Committee meeting he doesn’t like speed enforcement cameras “for a lot of reasons.” “I think it discriminates against people who abide by the law and put plates on their cars,” he said. The speed enforcement camera takes a photo of the license plate at the front of the vehicle. “We have states that border Ohio that don’t require front plates, so they pretty much get a free pass” He said he also didn’t like the motorists’ appeals process because the violation is difficult to contest. “I don’t like the appeal process with high speed enforcement. Toledo is way behind. The notices are mailed out a month after the violation,” he said, with few able to remember what they were doing on that

date. Motorists might be shown a video of the violation, but they can’t tell whether or not they were exceeding the speed limit, he added. Navarre, however, said he supports the use of red light cameras, which takes photos of motorists going through red lights. When he became chief in Oregon in 2012, he said he approached the administration about the potential use of red light cameras on Navarre Avenue due to bad accidents at some of the intersections. “I didn’t get a very warm reception back then. I was told `We don’t need that yet.’ So I let it go. I’m a big fan of red light cameras. I think the data is proven. They reduce accidents, injuries, and fatalities. But speed cameras, I don’t see data that supports them. It’s a revenue grab for cities all over the country.” Since safety improvements were recently completed on Navarre Avenue, from I-280 to Isaac Streets Drive, the accident rate on that stretch of Navarare has dropped, said Beazley. “We used to get at least eight accidents per month. Since the improvements, it’s now yielding one accident per month,” he said.

10-year anniversary

Galloway, Gradkowski help Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Purpose celebrate By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com

with Parker and Pattiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to turn a challenge into a success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As Merril Hoge said a couple of years ago, they are finding a way to overcome and achieve greatness by helping others to give to those who are less fortunate,â&#x20AC;? he said. The keynote speaker was former Ohio State great Joey Galloway and former Toledo Rockets quarterback Bruce Gradkowski, who also addressed the crowd of more than 400. Galloway, one of the fastest players to ever play in the NFL, played for six teams and was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in 1995. He played five seasons for Seattle, four with Dallas, five with Tampa Bay, split the 2009 season with New England and Pittsburgh before finishing his career with Washington. For his career, Galloway finished with 701 receptions for 10,950 yards and 82 touchdowns. He also finished with six seasons of at least 1,000 receiving yards. While at Ohio State, the two-time All-Big Ten selection accumulated 108 receptions, 1,494 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I grew up in a small town. When I have a chance to come to places like this, this is special to me,â&#x20AC;? said Galloway, who is from Bellaire, Ohio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The support you get from places like this is truly special, not just the hometown, but the entire area. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s places like this where people come together for special things like this and raise money for events like this. I want to thank everybody for being here tonight and for coming together.â&#x20AC;? Gradkowski is one of the most decorated athletes in Toledo history, having led the Rockets to the 2004 Mid-American Conference title while rewriting the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record book. The Pittsburgh native played in the NFL for 11 seasons and was actually a teammate of Gallowayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s during their time together in Tampa Bay. For his career, he started 20 games and completed 375-of-709 passes to go with 21 touchdowns and 24 interceptions. Primarily a

You may have a difficult time finding a better local charity than Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Purpose. The Fremont-based foundation, which was started 10 years ago by Parker Inks, 19, has become a community staple for many living in Northwest Ohio. Thus far, it has raised nearly $600,000 in an effort to help families with sick children pay for their medical bills. Two NFL veterans were present to help the organization celebrate its 10th anniversary at a banquet, which was hosted by Oleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Zimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wagon Shed in Gibsonburg. The banquet room was filled to its capacity. The organization was founded in 2008 when Inks, who was suffering from a serious case of viral pneumonia and a collapsed lung, took the surplus of cash donated to help pay for his medical bills and used it to start the foundation. Despite being started from the most humble of beginnings, the foundation has flourished, helping countless families in need while bringing the community together. Those who know him say Inks is an inspiration. In addition to starting a foundation, he battles muscular dystrophy and can only move his head and hands slightly. He is currently a student at Bowling Green State University. Local television news station sports broadcaster and foundation banquet emcee Jordan Strack referred to Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother, Patti, as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;backboneâ&#x20AC;? of Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Purpose. Patti is an instrumental figure within the organization and has battled her own health problems, fighting and defeating cancer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What can I say at this point? Ten years,â&#x20AC;? said Parker, who sold some of his art work to raise money for the cause. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s you guys. Without you, this would not happen.â&#x20AC;? Todd Drusback, the president of the organization, continues to be impressed

Drusback says the event in Gibsonburg proves the foundation is playing a role in raising funds for charities that help local families. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought the event was great,â&#x20AC;? said Drusback. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artwork being sold

Sheehy wants algae â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;victimsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on new joint committee State Rep. Michael Sheehy (D- Oregon), last week expressed concerns that the input of urban communities will be left out of a newly formed joint legislative committee to address harmful algal blooms at Lake Erieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Western Basin. The committee comes in response to public and industry pressure to further study one of the most critical issues facing the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Access to clean water is a fundamental right for all Ohioans, and unless we act swiftly, our lake is in real trouble,â&#x20AC;? said Sheehy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Though I disagree with the need for another study â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we know the cause and best practices to contain this crisis â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is my hope that committee leaders appoint members representing the victims of this crisis instead of stacking the deck in favor of special interests.â&#x20AC;? Earlier this year, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency released a report demonstrating that in key watersheds like the Maumee and the Sandusky, more than 80 percent of nutrient pollution fueling the harmful blooms is caused by

agricultural operations. Sheehy accused Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s powerful agriculture lobby, as well as the GOP, of creating an imbalance against urban communities â&#x20AC;&#x201C; forcing Ohio taxpayers to pay $3.5 billion since 2011 to clean up a crisis they did not create. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was there in 2014 when my community lost access to water for three days,â&#x20AC;? said Sheehy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since then, area residents have paid the price and dealt with serious consequences to a crisis they did not create. At the same time, the companies causing the pollution are refusing to act unless taxpayer dollars are going to pay for it. If legislators listened to working class families the way they do special interests, we would have seen serious action long ago.â&#x20AC;?

Federal funds In other news on Lake Erie, U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Oh) announced last week that he secured $300 million for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. Brown also secured $1.3 billion for the Clean Water State Revolving Fund and

$864 million for the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The funds will be included in the final Senate bill that appropriates federal funds for the Department of the Interior and the Environmental Protection Agency. The Senate bill was expected to pass last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ohioans rely on Lake Erie for jobs, clean drinking water, and a place to enjoy with their families,â&#x20AC;? said Brown. He added that he and Sen. Rob Portman were able to ensure the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative was at full strength as communities continue their work on keeping Lake Erie clean. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Separately, there are communities across Ohio that are struggling to afford expensive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but vital-renovations to outdated water and sewer systems. This increased funding for Ohio will provide financial relief for Ohio communities, boosting economic development and ensuring cleaner water,â&#x20AC;? said Brown. The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, according to Brown, is a highly successful

program that has jumpstarted restoration efforts to protect, maintain, and restore the chemical, biological, and physical integrity of the Great Lakes. Brown joined Portman and a bipartisan group of members on the Senate Great Lakes Task Force in writing a letter to the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior Environment, and related agencies, to request full funding to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. The Trump and Obama administrations both tried to cut funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. Senators Brown and Portman worked together to ensure it was fully funded in the appropriations bill for the rest of the fiscal year. The Clean Water State Revolving Fund and the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund programs provide funding to federal-state partnerships that help ensure local water sources are protected from pollution. These state programs allow state governments to provide communities with financial assistance, including loans and grants, to build or update water/sewer systems.

Rep. Ashford says loan bill will benefit working families By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A bill designed to reform what is called predatory short-term lending will benefit working families and consumers in Ohio, State Representative Michael Ashford, D- Toledo, said last week after Gov. John Kasich signed the bill into law. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After years of discussions, false starts and negotiations, I am proud that predatory lending reform today is becoming a reality for the consumers and families of Ohio. For the last decade, predatory lenders have exploited a loophole in Ohio law and taken advantage of consumers by charging some of the most outrageous and unfair interest rates and fees in the nation,â&#x20AC;? Rep. Ashford said. Ashford was a joint sponsor of the bill.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our bipartisan reforms in House Bill 123 will ensure Ohioans can still access short term loans, but in a way thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honest, open and fair â&#x20AC;Ś and I look forward to the positive outcomes this effort will have for generations to come,â&#x20AC;? he said. The bill prohibits licensees under the Small Loan Law and registrants under the General Loan Law from making loans of $1,000 or less or with a duration of one year or less. It also allows consumers three days to rescind a loan with no interest or fees. The bill was supported by local legislators, including representatives Steve Arndt, R â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Port Clinton, and Teresa Fedor, D â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Toledo, and Sen. Randy Gardner, R â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bowling Green. During opponent testimony before the House Government Accountability and Oversight Committee, Ted Saunders,

president of the Ohio Consumer Lenders Association, said the short-term loan industry is filling a need and experiencing customer satisfaction rates among the highest in financial services. He said special interest groups were behind the bill and patterned it after a similar bill adopted in Colorado. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even a cursory review of the outcome of Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lending practices shows a clear reduction in the availability of credit. Since this model was put in place in 2010, not a single new storefront location has opened in the state of Colorado and over 48 percent of the storefront locations have closed. The percentage of Colorado consumers who now qualify for short-term credit has plummeted,â&#x20AC;? he said. Saunders said anyone who wanted to operate under the Colorado model could presently do so under current Ohio law

but none do because it is an unsustainable business model. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lenders simply cannot make sufficient revenue to cover their employee expenses, rent and utility payments and the losses that necessarily flow from making loans to higher-risk borrowers,â&#x20AC;? he said. Susan Jagers, director of the Ohio Poverty Law Center, said lenders in Ohio have exploited a loophole in legislation adopted in 2008. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now they operate as loan brokers, which enables them to dramatically increase the fees they charge,â&#x20AC;? she testified. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a result, we pay the highest prices of any state, and auto title lenders operate with abandon, even though the legislature has never authorized auto title loans. It also enables these companies to make dangerous installment loan products without any safeguards.â&#x20AC;?

Bred to be distinguished

Ohlinger family reunites at Camp Perry By Ashley Brugnone CMP Writer celder@thecmp.org The 2018 National Matches are well underway, having already assembled a cluster of competitors of all ages and skill-levels onto the grounds of the historical Camp Perry National Guard Training Base through the pistol, smallbore and rimfire sporter rifle phases – with the highpower and long range series of events still ahead. Home of the National Matches since 1907, Camp Perry is a place where dreams come true and memories are made, generation after generation. The Matches’ longevity and welcoming atmosphere for even the newest of marksmen has made it a meeting ground for friends and families, far and wide, for over 100 years. For one talented family, Camp Perry has not only become an annual family destination, but a place where they have created a legacy of their own on the firing lines and across the stage of the famous Camp Perry Hough Theater – a legacy that was years in the making and is far from over. The name “Ohlinger” is well known to regular National Match go-ers. Brothers Mike (61) and Mark (57), and their sons David (39), Sam (32) and Joseph (J.J., 29), along with Mike’s wife, Becky, who volunteers to help out on the range each year, arrive every July to participate in the highpower stage of the event. A tight-knit group hailing from the Columbus, Ohio, area, the boys all grew up playfully competing against one another with their own private marksmanship competitions at home. “We’ve always kind of done this as a family,” J.J. said. Now, life has spread the men out to locations as far as Iowa and Maryland, yet they manage to make the annual trip to Camp Perry each summer for some reconnecting and a little light-hearted fun on the range. “This is our family reunion,” David said, a member of the Air Force marksmanship team for the last decade. “It’s more of just an excuse to spend time together,” said Sam. “We don’t really see these guys that often, outside of this.” The family tree branches out like this: brothers Mike and Mark began shooting

David Ohlinger received Air Force Badge No. 353 on the Hough Theater stage in 2017. when their father, Chester, introduced them to the pastime. Chester came from a line of military men – his father a veteran of World War I and Chester eventually joining the Korean War cause. A fan of the M1 Garand, Chester taught Mike and Mark how to shoot and how to hunt, which the two boys passed on to their own families. The family’s National Matches legacy began with Mike, the eldest of the two brothers, in 1998, when he finally made the trek up to northern Ohio. “I had always wanted to do this, my whole life,” he said. “But I was 41 before I met people to get started.” The following year, he convinced Mark to come up with him for an M1 clinic, and Sam joined a highpower team in 2000 – tagging along for the junior events at the Matches. Eventually, Mark’s sons J.J. and David followed in their family’s footsteps. But soon, as the Ohlingers got better and better in competition, they began to crave more than simply showing up for matches – they wanted that coveted Distinguished Badge dangling from their collars. Outstanding accuracy The Distinguished Badge is an honor earned only by those marksmen and markswomen who have shown continued success and outstanding accuracy by earning 30 points after competing in Excellence In

Competition (EIC) events, where they may earn a maximum of 10 points each time. Many who earn the badge are pinned on the renowned Hough Theater stage at Camp Perry during the National Matches – a sought-after honor, to walk the same steps as some of the most decorated and skilled marksmen of all time. In 2005, when Mike got his first 10 points at Nationals and Sam started shooting High Master, the two decided to start the quest for the badge. They started a few months later in October when nearby Miami (of Ohio) Rifle and Pistol was having their first EIC match of the season. Mike recalled his conversation with Sam as he explained, “I said to him, ‘We’ll go to that, you’ll win the match, I’ll get points, and we’ll go to the (National) Matches and leg out together and go out on the stage next year.’” As it turned out, Sam won the match, and Mike didn’t get any points. But, after some work, the two wound up walking up together on the Hough Theater stage – the first Ohlingers to do so. “[Staff from the Civilian Marksmanship Program] told us it was the first father/son combination to get their badges together,” Mike said. Mark and J.J. watched as the boys were pinned that year, and that’s when they decided to make a plan of their own. “J.J. and I sat in the auditorium and watched them get their badges on stage, and I leaned over and said, ‘We’re going to do that someday,’” Mark explained.

GOP responsible too To the editor: In the July 30 guest editorial by Tom Broadwater, he criticizes the hypocrisy of Democrats in supporting illegal immigration. I might point out that Republicans have had a very big responsibility in the overflow of immigrants. Donald Trump still imports foreign labor to work in his hotels because he doesn’t want to pay American workers a decent wage. Big corporate farms demand foreign labor for the same reason and they are mostly Republican controlled. Global free trade was started by Ronald Reagan, a Republican, and even though moderate Democrats such as Bill Clinton and Barack Obama helped pass more global free trade bills, the biggest supporters were Republicans and Libertarians in Congress – not liberals in Congress. This helped throw foreign farmers off their land, including millions from Mexico who fled to the U.S. to find farm jobs and stayed. Albert Kapustar Oregon

Oregon pizza truck making a name for itself in the area By Melissa Burden Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com For those in the know, a great slice of pizza may come from a truck, not a brickand-mortar store. Red Eye Pie, out of Oregon, recently took home the second-place award for People’s Choice at last month’s Pizza Palooza in Sylvania. “We were in shock,” owner Max Morrissey said. “We have only been in business for 10 months. We were just hoping to keep up with the orders there. We just did not expect to win an award.” The two-day event, held by the Sylvania Chamber of Commerce, brings thousands of pizza aficionados to Centennial Terrace. “It was extremely busy, and the rain held off,” Morrissey said. “We did have some issues initially, but I did notice that we had the longest line of customers there. We were the new kids there and the only pizza place that did not have a brick-andmortar store. We truly are just a truck with three employees.” Morrissey and his wife Darah are both born-and-bred Oregon residents. Morrissey graduated in 2007 from Clay High School. Darah attended Oregon Schools and graduated from Notre Dame Academy in 2004. Morrissey currently works full-time as an operator at the Toledo Refinery. Darah works as a stylist at Future Wave Salon in Oregon. The couple have a 7-month old son, Wilde, who also keeps them busy. “I always wanted to have a pizza restaurant,” Morrissey said. “I thought a truck would be a better, easier way to start. Of course, I also thought I was a lot handier than I am.” Morrissey said the year-long trek down the path to pizza glory started in 2016, when he bought a truck in Detroit. “It was an old handyman’s truck,” he explained. “My friends and I put in the service window, new walls, new electric, etc.” Morrissey said he received help from a local business and his friends. The floors of the truck were put in by Harrison Floors, of Oregon. Andy Knopp, an architect, came up with the design of the truck, along with a long list of materials that would be needed. Nathan Powell helped with all of the carpentry, and Zak Bugaj, an electrician, helped to get the pizza oven and kitchen up and running, he said. The original artwork on the pizza truck was designed and painted by Tony Touch, a friend and tattoo artist from Infinite Art. As for employees, the couple have been able to rely on Jeremiah Steingraber, Jim Cummerow and Easton Snyder, Morrissey said, adding the trio have also ran the truck for him when he has had to work his swing shift at the refinery. While taking the time to retrofit the

(Press photo by Ken Grosjean) truck, the couple also used friends and family to experiment on with new recipes for pizza crusts as well as pizza toppings. “We finally became legal last September,” he said. “Prior to that, we figured out what pizza we wanted to make. We decided on a hand-tossed crust, similar to a New York-style. I also decided to cut the pepperoni myself.” Red Eye Pie has been working with ProMedica, Morrissey said, adding the truck can be found at movie nights and during the Friday concert series at Promenade

Park in downtown Toledo. They also appear at the Rollin’ Truck and Farmer’s Market in Oregon, at the Pat Catan’s parking lot on Navarre Avenue on the first Wednesday of every month. Pizza can also be acquired once a week, from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. in the parking lot at Future Wave, on Navarre Avenue. Red Eye Pie can also be found late night, on the weekends, on Adams Street in Toledo. The truck is used for private parties as well, he said, adding the number of calls for parties has increased exponentially

since the Sylvania event. Red Eye Pie typically has three pizzas to choose from each time they are out in the truck. Choices include cheese, pepperoni and one specialty pie. “We have two favorite specialty pizzas,” Morrissey said. “The Philly Cheesesteak on a thin crust was extremely popular at Pizza Palooza. Our BBQ Mango Chicken on our hand-tossed crust is also very popular. Pizza is available by the slice or the whole pie.” A large NY slice of cheese pie is $3, and pepperoni or specialty pie is $4 per slice. A whole 16-inch cheese or pepperoni pizza is $15, with a whole specialty pizza selling for $18. “If we do any special events for people, we can do pretty much anything, any pizza, they want,” Morrissey said. “The prices for parties is a $100 truck fee. Then 15-24 pizzas are $15 each. For 25 or more pizzas, they are $13 each.” Red Eye Pie’s other scheduled events include: • University of Toledo Lake Erie Center Farmer’s Market – Friday, Aug. 10 from 5-8 p.m., 6200 Bayshore Rd., Oregon. • Oregon Rollin’ Truck and Farmers Market – Wednesday, Sept. 5 from 5-8 p.m. at Pat Catan’s on Navarre Avenue. • Toledo Mini Maker Faire, near Imagination Station, Festival Park, downtown Toledo – Saturday, Sept. 15, from 11 a.m.- 7 p.m. • ProMedica Family Movie Night, Sunday – Sept. 23, from 5-9 p.m., at Promenade Park. Those interested in booking Red Eye Pie may call 419-654-3036 or email redeyepie419@gmail.com. Information on the truck and where they will be located can be found on Facebook or Instagram.

New TMA installation engages the senses & the world A multisensory art installation of video, new media and works on paper by artists from around the world launches a recently renovated gallery dedicated to contemporary art at the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA). “Sights and Sounds: Art, Nature and the Senses” presents modern and contemporary works of art in a variety of media that explore and relate to the natural world. Many of the works are recent acquisitions installed for the first time, while others from TMA’s acclaimed collection have only been shown occasionally. The installation, curated by TMA Director of Curatorial Affairs Halona Norton-Westbrook, will be on view exclusively at TMA through Feb. 24, 2019. Admission is free. “Sights & Sounds: Art, Nature, and the Senses” is the first in a series of contemporary installations planned for the newly renovated TMA gallery space. The experience includes three largescale video installations by David Hockney, Takashi Ishida and James Nares – thoughtprovoking meditations on natural and urban landscapes.

They plan to film episodes of the hit series “American Pickers” throughout the region in September. “American Pickers” is a documentary series that explores the world of antique “picking” on History. The hit show follows skilled pickers Mike and Frank as they hunt for America’s most valuable antiques. They are always excited to find sizeable, unique collections and learn the interesting stories behind them. As they hit the back roads from coast to coast, Mike and Frank are on a mission to recycle and rescue forgotten relics. Along the way, the Pickers want to meet characters with remarkable and exceptional items. The pair hopes to give historically significant objects a new lease on life, while learning a thing or two about America’s past along the way. Mike and Frank have seen a lot of rusty gold over the years and are always looking to discover something they’ve never seen before. If you or someone you know has a large, private collection or accumulation of antiques that the Pickers can spend the better part of the day looking through, send your name, phone number, location and description of the collection with photos to americanpickers@cineflix.com or call 855-OLD-RUST.

History & Hops Brewery Tour The Toledo History Museum (THM) is inviting guests to explore Toledo through the lens of the area’s rich beer brewing history. By combining a bus tour and beer tastings with historical digital and audio content, THM’s History & Hops Brewery Tour will fully immerses guests in the proud tradition of local beer brewing and the Toledo story, starting Sept. 1. “People enjoy learning about our area’s history and seeing it firsthand. Our Unholy Toledo Tours have been sold out for two seasons,” said Donna Christian Rehfeldt, board president of the non-profit history museum. “We’re very excited to add this tour to our programming and expand our outreach to other parts of the community.” Starting at various local breweries on the first and third Saturday of each month, guests board a luxury excursion bus to tour the Toledo Brewery Trail and learn how beer brewing played an important role in Toledo’s past — and continues to shape our future. “We share the roots of Toledo’s grand brewing heritage from the first breweries on the East Side and Lenk’s Hill to shipping beer worldwide from Toledo’s Warehouse District,” Christian Rehfeldt said. THM’s history guides lead guests on a narrated, multimedia bus tour of the famous and not-so-famous brewery sites that dot Toledo’s urban landscape and challenge guests to win prizes by answering Toledo brewery trivia questions.

Inspirational Message of the Week: Desperation The shining dreams and ideals of youth often become tarnished and faded in mid-life. We expected great things from life but are disappointed to see our dreams unfulfilled and time running out. Thoreau famously remarked that “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” Living with this desperation takes a heavy toll which few can bear. Most of us either relinquish the dreams or lower our expectations. Some of us continue to believe that the brass ring might still be grasped. But no one can live with the thought that they have somehow failed at life, or failed to live up to their own ideals. So how should we face this? How do we live in such

Northwood

a way that we can approach the grave with a full-throated singing of our dreams and ideals? One way is to keep doing the best that we can, knowing we are finite creatures who often stumble. But, at least if we know that we have run the race with determination, never giving up, we will know we have done our best. We should also realize that this isn’t an individual race, but a relay race, where we have taken the baton from others and will soon pass it on. And finally, to complete the analogy, the coach of our team is God, and ultimately God’s team will win. We are all cosmic winners if we are on the side of goodness. “When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who watch over my way.” Psalm 142:3

August programs to honor Wood County’s history The Wood County Historical Society will feature three living history programs in August to honor notable citizens that made an impact on Wood County’s leisure time of the 1920s and 30s. The highlight event of the year is the 15th annual Living History Day, which takes place on Sunday, Aug. 26 from 2-4 p.m. at Oak Grove Cemetery on the campus of Bowling Green State University. Eight local residents will portray citizens interred in Wood County cemeteries or that had an impact on Wood County’s leisure time of the 1920s and 1930s. This year’s honorees were chosen to coincide with the “leisure time” exhibit at the Wood County Historical Center & Museum, “The Return to Normalcy: A Life of Leisure in Wood County.” This event is free and open to the public. On Monday, Aug. 6, the Way Public Library in Perrysburg will host a sneakpeek performance, “Voices from Wood County’s Past: The Leisure Years,” featuring two music-inspired portrayals. Local musician Cleve Patton, will portray Raymond T. George (1889-1930), who was the conductor of the First Methodist Church orchestra and a member of the Bowling Green Military Band. Also featured will be Georgia Sargent Waugh (1891-1974), the leader of the Kitchen Kazoo Orchestra of the Portage Township homemakers. She will be portrayed by Michele Raine with a short performance from her kazoo orchestra. This event is free and open to the public. A complete list of portrayers, honorees, and event details can be found at woodcountyhistory.org or by calling the museum at 419-352-0967.

Etc. Tails on the Trails Whether you’re rearing to race, wanting to enjoy a walk in the park, or just want to support the animals in our community, join Humane Ohio for the 2nd Annual Tails on the Trails Walk and 5k Run Sunday, Sept. 9. The event will take place at the Liz Pearson Shelter in Ottawa Park. The race will kick off at 9 a.m., with the walk beginning a few minutes later. This dog-friendly event will include food trucks, doggy-IQ tests, caricatures, a fun photo booth, a vendor village, music by DJ Shellie, and more. All funds raised at Tails on the Trails will go toward keeping spay/neuter services affordable in the Northwest Ohio region and helping keep pets in their homes. Racers can register for $22 if they sign up before Aug. 26, or $25 if they register after. Day-of registration will also be available for $30. Walkers are asked to fundraise a minimum of $5 but are encouraged to fundraise further. Prizes will be awarded to those who raise funds ranging in amounts of $50$1,000 and more. Prizes include t-shirts, bumper stickers, coolers, and even a Fitbit Charge 2 Heart Rate & Fitness Wristband Activity tracker. All runners will receive a t-shirt, and the fastest male and female will win a $25 gift certificate to spend at Dave’s Running Shop. “This event is a fun opportunity to bring

the whole family out, including man’s best friend, to get active while supporting a great cause,” said Humane Ohio’s Development and Marketing Coordinator, Kaylie Spotts. “Fundraisers like this help us keep our prices low for the community, so we can ensure every pet guardian is able to afford to fix their cats and dogs. Last year was great, and this year we are adding even more things to do such as food trucks and the doggy IQ test which we think will really make this an event to remember.” For more info or to sign up, visit https:// humaneohio.org/tails-on-the-trails/ or call 419-266-5607, ext. 111.

Lake Erie destinations recognized Three destinations in the Lake Erie Shores & Islands region recently earned national recognition for being the best of the best. The city of Port Clinton was named as one of the “Top 10 Most Affordable Lake Towns in 2018” by Realtor.com, while Cedar Point’s Lighthouse Point was named as the “Best RV Park” in Ohio by Reader’s Digest. Put-in-Bay was also named as the “Best Kept Secret” in Ohio by Reader’s Digest and the “Prettiest Town in Ohio” by ArchitecturalDigest.com. According to Realtor.com, the “Top 10 Most Affordable Lake Towns” list was based on “places where there are plenty of wellpriced and available homes, where property values are rising (so snagging a home will be a good investment) and there are plenty of fun things to do on or around the water.” Port Clinton was chosen due to its prime location on one of the Great Lakes, the influx of visitors during the summer, and wide variety of locally-owned shops, restaurants, and more. Its close proximity to area parks

and the islands all played a factor in the city making the list. Cedar Point’s recently-expanded Lighthouse Point was named as the “Best RV Park” in Ohio, by Reader’s Digest. Located steps away from Cedar Point, Cedar Point Shores and the mile-long Cedar Point Beach, Lighthouse Point features 120 full hook-up RV campsites, waterfront cottages, cabins, and more. This year, the park introduced 25 new RV sites, complete with amenities such as a fire pit, Adirondack chairs, glider swing, and more. Put-in-Bay earned its accolades as “Best Kept Secret” and “Prettiest Town in Ohio” for its wide variety of family-friendly activities, local restaurants, history, and more. This year, visitors can get a bird’s-eye view of the island thanks to the reopening of the observation deck of Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial. For more information about these award-winning destinations in the Lake Erie Shores & Islands region and more, visit SHORESandISLANDS.com.

History Spotlight

Neighborhood theaters once flourished on the east side By Larry Michaels East Toledo Historical Society Long before movie-goers were clustered into mega-theater complexes, many nowforgotten little theaters dotted the neighborhoods of East Toledo. In the year 1911, four small East Side theaters appeared in city directories for the first time. “Amusements” were offered at the Cresent (930 Woodville Rd.), the Palm (220 Paine, now the Hungarian Club), the Navarre (at Oak and Navarre, later Walter’s Drug Store), and the Peoples Theater (804 Starr Ave.). Several other small theaters opened soon afterwards – the Ideal at 306 Fassett,

the Gaiety at 2156 Front St., and the Oak Theater at 509 Oak St., now part of Ondrus Hardware. None of these early movie houses lasted very long, with the Palm surviving the longest, until 1931. In addition, the Alvin or New Palace Theater was located in the Weber Block; the Gem was in the Montville Block at First and Main and the Cook Theater was for a short time in the Platt Building at Front and Main where McDonald’s is today. The most successful of the early theaters were the East Auditorium, the Tivoli, and of course the Eastwood. On Christmas Day of 1913, A.J. Smith and his son Martin opened the East Auditorium at 519 Main St.

The following year, James Beidler became a partner, and soon “the people of East Toledo could enjoy the popular movies at a price that was reasonable.” With the coming of the “talkies,” it flourished, and continued to do a good business well into the 1950s. It later became a Pentecostal church and the building is now gone. The Tivoli on Consaul Street in Birmingham also did well, survived the Depression, and lasted until the 1950s. The Eastwood was the largest and most successful theater on the east side. It opened on East Broadway between Navarre and Woodville in 1921 and was immediately very popular. Movie-goers could see a newsreel, one or more cartoons, a short western, a couple comedies, and a feature picture — all

for one dime. For example, in March 1942 “They Died with their Boots On,” starring Errol Flynn, was at the Eastwood, and Cary Grant appeared in “Once Upon a Time” in July 1944. There also would be a drawing where a lucky ticketholder might win a ham or a box of candy – valuable prizes during the Depression. Bank Nights were held in the 1950s, an early type of lottery. The Eastwood suffered a long decline,but is still operated by Cornerstone Church and shows a few movies, the only old east side theater to survive the age of television. Also, a few of the other old buildings still stand, a reminder of an earlier era when little theaters once thrived in every east side neighborhood.

Cousino’s celebrates waitress’ 40 years of service By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com Have you ever ordered a steak in a restaurant and had a server ask you if you are right- or left-handed, so the steak knife could be appropriately placed on the right or left side of the plate? If not…you’ve likely never eaten in Janet Pollauf’s section at Cousino’s Steakhouse. And, for those who order the restaurant’s signature casserole potatoes, Janet makes sure to position the hot dish carefully so they’re not likely to accidentally get burned. Those are just a couple in a long list of reasons Janet is beloved by customers, co-workers and Eileen Cousino, the restaurant’s owner and Janet’s employer (though Cousino dislikes being called ‘the boss’ or any other title at the restaurant, a longtime staple on Woodville Road in Oregon). It was Cousino who hired the teenaged Janet back on July 19, 1978. “She was one of my first hires,” she recalls. “I could see that ‘eye of the tiger’ in her. She came in with a presence – very self-assured. She impressed me. She was hungry in a good way. “At the time, she really wanted to buy a Corvette,” Cousino said. Eventually, Janet did get the Corvette – and she kept working. She married her husband, Greg Pollauf, had three sons, and

also became a grandmother of two granddaughters. Four decades later, she is still serving steakhouse customers – many of whom plan their dining visits for when their favorite waitress is working. To mark Janet’s 40th anniversary at the steakhouse, Cousino and the rest of the staff planned a celebration of the woman whom they describe as “one in a million.” On July 19, Janet’s family, co-workers, longtime customers and friends gathered at the restaurant for a surprise celebration. Though Janet was technically “working,” Cousino offered to be her runner for the evening – something she was nervous about. “When I do run for her, she’ll say, ‘Don’t put the plate down like that, Eileen, it goes like this,” Cousino laughed. “Janet is low-key but meticulous – a perfectionist in a good way,” said bartender Karrie Landis. “She really cares about everything and everyone here.” “I came into work the other day, and I didn’t know whose car was in the parking lot,” Cousino said. “Inside, Janet came up and she had two little rags in her hand. I asked her what she was doing, and she said she was cleaning the mirrors and the Tiffanys (lamps). I never knew she did that, but the team has said she does that every month – on her own time, with her own supplies.” “She takes pride in everything she does,” said Kali Landis, general manager. “She loves to see other people happy.”

Her coworkers, customers and family celebrated with Janet Pollauf on July 19 - her 40th anniver sary of being hired at Cousino’s Steakhouse. (Submitted photo). “If she’s having a bad day, you’d never know,” Kali said. “If she has a negative customer she takes it with a grain of salt and tries everything she can to try turn things around. She gives everyone the benefit of the doubt.” “She works Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 4 p.m. to close and her station is always full for the entire night,” Cousino said. “She asks for a small station so that she can interact with her customers. “Her customers think of her as family,” she said. “She gets invited to weddings and events; if there’s a funeral, she attends. “Often when we work together, we reminisce about the old days and I tease, “It’s not like it used to be, is it Janet?” Cousino said. “Back then, we opened at 4 p.m. and closed

at 2:30 in the morning. Those were really long hours for us; we don’t stay open that late anymore, thank goodness.” “Through all the years, she hasn’t changed or aged a bit,” Cousino said, displaying a pair of photos – one from Janet’s early days at the restaurant along side a recent picture. “She never ages; she looks exactly the same,” Cousino said. “She’s beautiful inside and out.” “Forty years at any job is impressive, but to do 40 years in this industry is unheard of,” Kali said. “It’s definitely something to be celebrated.” “She never ceases to amaze me,” Cousino said.

Obituary Donald F. Carnes

June 24, 1942 ~ July 31, 2018 Donald Franklin Carnes was born on June 24, 1942 in Toledo. He was the oldest of two sons born from the union of the late Aldred Franklin and the late Rowena Alice (Zerbe) Carnes. Donald attended Woodward High School graduating with the Class of 1961. He enlisted in the United States Navy serving his country honorably. Donald attended Monroe County Community College where he earned an Associate’s Degree as a Journeyman Machine Repairman. Not afraid of a challenge or hard work, Donald worked in many different positions throughout his lifetime. He began working for Ford Motor Company in 1962 as a machine repairman later earning a position as a Supervisor. He worked at the Monroe Stamping Plant for most of his career, although because of his management capabilities he was moved to Texas to work at the Laredo Ford plant from 1987 until 1995. Donald retired in 1997 after thirty-two years of service. Donald married the love of his life, Louise Danyi, on July 15, 1967 at St. Stephen’s Church in Toledo. The couple was blessed with three children. Donald was a wonderful husband and father and a phenomenal cook. He had a great sense of humor and truly enjoyed being around others. Always having something interesting to say, and without an inside voice, he was surely the life of every party. Donald was very intelligent with a photographic memory. An eloquent speaker, he was an unpaid dispenser of philosophical knowledge. With a love of boating, Donald became a charter boat captain after his retirement from Ford, although he took every opportunity to hone his golf game. Donald Franklin Carnes, age 76 of Monroe, passed away unexpectedly at home on Tuesday, July 31, 2018. To cherish his memory, Donald leaves his beloved wife of fifty-one years: Louise; three children: Alan (Pauline) Carnes of Lakewood, Ohio; Amy (Mike) Thompson of Grand Isle, Vermont, and Ann (Ryan) Hauser) of Monroe; a brother: Robert of Toledo; twelve grandchildren: Donovan, Oliver, Benjamin, Jacob, Sylvia, Vera, Hazel, Naomi, Samantha, Bryan, Michael and Jennifer.

Find beauty following the footsteps of the “Group of Seven” You really should spend some quality time with the Group of Seven; get to know them and the places they loved, and actually follow their footsteps across one of the most beautiful regions of North America. The Seven were extraordinary artists, inspired in the 1920s to venture into wilderness, take solace in its beauty, record it in their unique individual vision, and, in the process, not only give Canada an amazing gift of art but inspire the preservation of some of today’s most celebrated parklands. They did for Canada with canvas and brush what Ansel Adams did with his camera for the American West. Lawren Harris, J.E.H. MacDonald, Arthur Lismer, Frederick Varley, Frank Johnston, Franklin Carmichael and A.Y. Jackson were all introduced to the beautiful landscapes of northern Ontario by Tom Thomson, who had painted scenes of Algonquin Provincial Park that were an inspiration to the Group. Together they explored new subjects and captured them with a daring new spirit. “It represented a change in the style of traditional landscape painting,” Jasmina Jovanovic, executive director of the Algoma Gallery of Art in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. “Their work was filled with emotion, strong colors, expressive brush strokes, and symbolism.” It was uniquely Canadian, both the subject matter and their style, which broke from European traditions. Eric Brown, the first director of the National Gallery of Canada, saw something really special in their early work. “A national spirit is being born” was his reaction, according to Jovanovic. The Group’s first focus was the Algoma Region, the beautiful region north of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula anchored by Ontario’s Sault Ste. Marie. “In three years they came seven times to Algoma,” Jovanovic said. They came by train on the route of today’s Algoma Central, out of the Sault to the Agawa Canyon. There the train would drop a boxcar renovated for them to use as a combination mobile studio and dormitory. “Many of the group were affected by

Natural Wanders by Art Weber the atrocities of World War I,” Jovanovic said. “The nature of Algoma was very healing. The trips were a spiritual experience.” The results were superb artistically. Many of the subjects have become scenic destinations today. “Lawren Harris and J.E.H. MacDonald painted Bridal Falls in Agawa Canyon,” Jovanovic said. “The Agawa River and falls were painted by many.” That just scratches the surface for hundreds of sites that inspired their paintings. Many of these locations are still identifiable and are now easily accessible, making it a wonderful adventure to follow in their

footsteps. Most of these locations still look as they did when painted by the Group, so it’s easy to experience the scene as they did and be similarly inspired. Then there’s the bonus of appreciating their unique artistic interpretation. To experience what they saw and how they interpreted it, you’re invited to enjoy touring with the “Moments of Algoma,” a system of 16 interpretive stations to follow. Each station is an actual Group of Seven painting site, a site that illustrates the artists’ experience or a gallery in which to view their work. Following the route is an opportunity to experience the beauty of Northern Ontario. One of the best ways to be introduced to the Algoma Region and the Group of Seven is to take a ride on the Agawa Canyon Tour Train, which, during its June 20-Oct. 15 schedule, departs daily from Sault Ste. Marie. It’s a 140-mile trip to the canyon, where passengers are able to get off the train and explore the natural beauty, es-

pecially Bridal Falls. Food and food service on the train, which boards at 8 a.m. and returns to the Sault at 6 p.m., is excellent. Multi-day packages are available, which allow time for exploring many historic and scenic attractions in Sault Ste. Marie as well as a trip up the Coastal Highway, which is rich in scenery and includes some Group of Seven sites. Sault Ste. Marie is about 390 miles north of the city of Oregon via US 23 and I-75. For more information, visit www. SaultTourism.com and www.Sault-Canada. com. For information on the canyon tour visit www.AgawaTrain.com. Visit www. MomentsOfAlgoma.ca for information on the 16 stations interpreting Group of Seven sites. The Holiday Inn Express is excellent and is among several recommendable accommodations central to great dining and within walking distance of the Agawa Canyon Tour Train station. The Algoma Gallery of Art is also nearby.

Spencer Schultz

Chandler Dippman

Dippman, Schultz honored at College World Series By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Because the college baseball season doesn’t last into the summer, it is incumbent upon players to get as many reps in as possible during their time off from school. Five local players have sought to play for the Toledo Hawks, a summer collegiate team coached by Ed Mouch. Mouch’s team went 27-22 and advance to the semifinals of the National Amateur Baseball Federation’s College World Series, which has been held in Toledo annually since 2004. “It’s been a good season. We had a lot of kids on our roster and we tried to give them an equal opportunity to play and figure out who our guys were going to play at the NABF College World Series,” Mouch said. “I think it’s very, very important. They’re going back to the school in the fall, and they get to see more pitches as a hitter, throw more pitches, (and) hopefully it makes them a better player. Obviously, we want to win, but we want to make sure that every kid leaves our program a better player than what they started out back in June.” At the College World Series, Spencer Schultz and Chandler Dippman earned alltournament honors for their performances. Schultz is a Walbridge native who played baseball at Bowling Green High School for his father, Bob, who was the coach at the time. He currently plays for Union University, which is located in Tennessee. Schultz hit .259 this past season, drove in 17 runs and finished with

17 runs. This summer, he hit .347 for the Hawks. Normally a catcher or first baseman, Schultz found himself filling in at other positions for the Hawks just to get his talents into the lineup. “He’s a very good left-handed batter, and he hit in the middle of the lineup. He’s got some power, he can play multiple positions and he played in the outfield for us,” said Mouch. “Spencer is a really good player. He ended up hitting well for us.” Dippman, who hits and pitches at the College of Wooster, earned NCAA Division III All-American for his efforts in the spring. He hit .333 with the Hawks. For the Fighting Scots, he hit .317 to go with a home run and 29 RBIs. He was even better on the mound, going 8-1 with a 2.71 ERA, making him a twoway threat. Dippman, who played for St. John’s in high school, struck out 30 batters in 69.2 innings of work. Mouch credited Dippman, whose family is originally from the Oregon area, for his work ethic and leadership. “Chandler’s a really good player. Chandler is one of those fundamentaltechnique guys. He took care of playing a solid third base, and he was our No. 3 hitter all year long,” said Mouch. “He’s the kind of guy that is a baseball rat. He’s a leader by what we’re doing, on the field, and in the dugout. He talks to kids and lets them know situations.” Matt York, a Clay graduate who pitched at Lourdes University, also had a nice summer, pitching to the tune of a 3.68 ERA. His final season with Lourdes saw him go 4-4 with a 4.75 ERA in 72 innings of work.

“He’s played for us for three years. He got us into the semifinal game tied at 3-3 in the sixth inning,” Mouch said. “He did a great job, I love Matt. He was a starting pitcher for us when we won the NABF College World Series in 2016.” Another former Clay Eagle is Christian Orr, who will be playing baseball next year at Owens Community College. He hit .256 for the Hawks. “This is his first year playing for us. He played multiple positions for us out of necessity,” said Mouch. “The biggest thing is he can play a lot of spots for us, so he was in the lineup all year long. He was very solid for us. He committed to us, and he just wanted to play baseball.” Jude Neary, a Cardinal Stritch alum, just got done playing his sophomore season at Defiance, where he hit .237 (.368 on base percentage) to go with nine doubles, 13 RBIs and nine runs scored. “I’m hoping Jude becomes our third baseman and replaces Chandler. If he comes back and plays with us, he takes over playing third and defensively he’s fine,” said Mouch. “It’s just a matter of making sure he hits consistently for us.” Mouch is the former head baseball coach at St. John’s Jesuit and Sylvania Southview. He currently works at SJJ as an assistant to head baseball coach Craig Meinzer, a former athletic director, baseball coach and football coach at Cardinal Stritch. In the spring, the Titans had a good season, winning a district championship. “Craig and I have been together for years. He was an assistant coach when I got the head coaching job at St. John’s.

working for him, and I think we’ve got a really good rapport,” said Mouch. “He lets me take of the hitting and he takes care of the offense. We’re looking for a lot of positive things for our program down the road.” In the championship game, the Oil City Stags (Mt. Pleasant, Mich.) defeated the Columbus Braves 7-2 at Mercy Health Field. The Stags scored two runs in the first, took the lead for good with three in the sixth, and added two insurance runs in the eighth to cruise to the championship victory. Tournament Most Valuable Player and Batting Champion Derrek Clyde (Saginaw Valley State) had two doubles, a triple and two RBIs in the championship. For the tournament, he batted .520 through six games. Former Major Leaguers who played in the CWS since it has been in Toledo include Tony Cingrani (Illinois Jayhawks), David Freese (Fenton Collegiate), Burke Badenhop (Ohio Storm), A.J.

Pemberville Legion finishes 1-2 at state tournament By Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com Pemberville Freedom Post 183 coach Don â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chopperâ&#x20AC;? Schmeltz was pleased with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play at this year's American Legion state tournament. Schmeltz had guided Post 183 to the American Legion State Tournament â&#x20AC;&#x153;eight or nine years in a row in the 1990s,â&#x20AC;? including a runner-up finish in 1992. Schmeltz has been Pembervilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach for 47 years. Helping Schmeltz this year was assistant coaches Dave Russell and Guy Elston. Russell previously coached at Northwood and Elston is a former professional baseball player who helps mostly with the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pitching. A.J. Fritz, the son of Mike and Beth Fritz, is the batboy, and A.J. followed the Legion state tournament by getting to throw out the first pitch at a Toledo Mud Hens game last week. This year at Beavers Field in Lancaster, Pemberville finished 1-2 and was eliminated in the second game of the losersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bracket. The Circleville Post 134 Panthers won the championship over Beverly-Lowell Posts 389/750, 4-2. Pemberville opened the tournament losing to Jefferson County Post 33, 7-0, struggling to get three hits off pitcher Tristan Haught. Josh Vischer (Genoa), Zach Marvin (Maumee) and Cole Noftz (New Riegel) all had base hits for Pemberville. However, behind the pitching of 2018 Eastwood graduate Jake Pickerel (Owens Community College), Pemberville got back on track, defeating Van Wert Post 178, 13-2, to open loserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bracket play. Pickerel struck out one batter, walked one, hit one batter, and allowed seven hits, with three coming in the first inning. Meanwhile, Pemberville exploded for 14 hits. Going down the lineup, Scott Mackiewicz (Lake) went 3-for-5, Noftz went 2-for-3, and batting clean-up, Marvin went 3-for-5, including a seventh-inning triple. Fred Sisco (Gibsonburg/Campbell University) went 2-for-4, Sam Witt (Genoa) went 1-for-3, Alec Zoeller (New Riegel) went 2-for-3, and Vischer went 1-for-4.

In addition, Pickerel reached three times on walks, scoring twice, Nofts scored twice after getting hit by a pitch and walking, and Vischer, Witt and Zoeller scored after reaching on a walk. In the seventh, Pemberville scored seven runs, sending 10 batters to the plate, on three hits and four walks. However, Pembervilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season came to an end, losing to Beverly-Lowell, 6-5. After Beverly-Lowell took a 6-2 lead in the fifth, Pemberville scored three in the sixth, but it was not enough. In the sixth, Marvin, Witt, Pickerel

and Vischer all reached on base hits, and Mackiewicz on an error, but Mackiewicz and Vischer were stranded after the BeverlyLowell pitcher struck out the eighth batter of the inning. In the seventh, Sisco was hit by a pitch and Witt followed with a base hit, then both advanced to second and third on a balk, but neither was unable to score when Zoeller hit a fly ball to left field for the third out. Mackiewicz and Marvin were both 2-for-4 with a double, Witt was 2-for-3, and getting base hits were Jake Pickerel, Justin Pickerel (Eastwood), Sisco, and Vischer.

Post 183 finishes the season 35-16. Post 183 qualified to the state tournament by winning a five-team double-elimination tournament in Defiance and Ottawa. Post 183 played its first two double-elimination games in Defiance, and the championship game was in Ottawa. Pemberville beat Napoleon, 5-1, in its opener, and then topped Adams Township, 10-0, in six innings. Sisco got the win in the opening game. Jake Pickerel, who will play at Owens Community College next season, pitched the second game and went all six innings to earn the win. Post 183 again won by the 10-run rule in the championship game, beating Findlay Post 3 by a 14-4 margin. Witt, who will be a junior at Genoa, pitched the first twoplus innings and fellow left-hander Zoeller closed out the win. Noftz, a senior at New Riegel, went 4-for-5 with a home run to lead the offense. The game ended when Justin Pickerel hit a ball over center fielderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head with the bases loaded in the bottom of the fifth. Other local players on the team are Tyler Haas (Eastwood/Bowling Green State University), Tyler Babka (Woodmore) and Bryce Pratt (Cardinal Stritch).

Rockets, Eagles stay on top of game in the summer By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com In any sport, what sets the good players apart from the average players is work ethic and commitment. For softball players, that means playing the sport during the summer in an effort to refine their skills. Summer teams are loaded with talented, capable playChris Rawski ers, and competing against one another raises each player’s level of play. Two area schools with multiple girls playing on summer teams are Oak Harbor and Eastwood. It’s no surprise that both of these programs have had tremendous success, in large part due to the commitment of its players. Oak Harbor has won back-to-back district titles and two straight Sandusky Bay Conference championships. The Rockets have come a long way in Chris Rawski’s seven years as coach, reaching the regional tournament twice in a row and winning five sectional titles while flirting with 30 victories in each of the last two seasons. A number of Rawski’s player, including Kaytlynn Sandwisch, Olivia Jensen and Dani Epling, are playing summer softball. “It’s very important to see great pitching and to be put in different situations in multiple games. It helps to hone your reactions in big games when the high school season comes around. I think (getting better) comes from when you’re in those situations in the summer against good competition, facing good pitching and you’re able to translate it to high school,” said Rawski. “You’re not overwhelmed because you have so many games under your belt. I see travel softball as a way to elevate your game in high school and if you want to further

Eastwood coach Joe Wyant chases behind a close play during district tournament action last spring. (Press file photo by Russ Lytle/ Facebook. com/ RussLytle/RHP) yourself into a player at the next level, it’s a great way to show off your skills and hone the skills that you have coming out of high school. “That’s how we started our program. Emma (Bergman) and Maddy (Rathbun) started playing on a travel team in seventh grade and they sat the bench the majority of the time and learned. After that, they kind of led the way as far as if you wanted to get some playing time on the varsity team, (playing travel softball) is almost something that you have to do.” Like the Rockets, Eastwood has been a dominant force in recent years and is one of Northwest Ohio’s elite programs. The Eagles have won back-to-back district championships and three straight Northern Buckeye Conference titles, including a 45game winning streak in the league.

During 11th-year coach Joe Wyant’s tenure, the Eagles have won five district championships and advanced to the state tournament in 2013. Quite simply, Eastwood has rebuilt its program with its commitment to summer softball. Wyant has plenty of his kids playing summer softball, including Ashley Hitchcock, Megan Melcher, Alissa Ray and Hannah Owens. Wyant agrees with Rawski’s perspective. “I think any time that you get extra playing time and have the opportunity to swing the bat and face good pitching, you’re only getting better,” he said. “I’m happy that they get a chance to go out there and compete. That’s the biggest thing for me — mentally concentrating on softball. It gets a fair share of my time. Eight out of my 10 starters are playing summer softball.”

Playing in the summer isn’t a requirement, but the coaches say it can go a long way towards refining your skills and raising your level of play. “You now have players that come in as freshmen who aren’t overwhelmed by what they see at the varsity level,” said Rawski. “When they’re able to be in multiple situations over and over again, it gives you the opportunity to become a great varsity player.” How do you know it works? Both coaches had to oversee tremendous rebuilding efforts during their tenure. The Rockets won nine games in Rawski’s first year and the Eagles had just four winning seasons before Wyant took over. Eastwood is 247-66 since Wyant became the coach and Oak Harbor is 145-62 since Rawski took the reins.

Genoa golfers seek to defend league title Henry wins on Baumann Auto Night

By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Gabe Scott and Austin Marley did their part to lead Genoa’s boys golf team to its first league championship in eight years last fall. Scott and Marley, both first-team AllNorthern Buckeye Conference performers, propelled the Comets to the NBC title but have since graduated. Now it’s someone else’s turn to step up, coach Mike DeStazio said. “We lost two good kids, but the program is really strong,” DeStazio said. “The program isn’t bare. We think we have a shot of winning the league. We have to shoot around 165 if we want to win the league. If we do that, we can be in every league match we’re in. Everything depends on my young kids. If we’re consistent, we can be in the top three.” A good place to start the season is with the services of junior Ethan Smith, last year’s NBC player of the year and a secondteam all-district performer. Smith started out as Genoa’s No. 3 man last season but quickly moved up to No. 1. “He plays in a lot of tournaments in the LEJGA, in about 18 matches this summer,” DeStazio said. “He did a lot last summer and showed me early on that he could play in matches because he had a lot of experience playing competitively. For a sophomore, he was very mature and it didn’t bother him to play competitively. “Marley was probably my best golfer last year, but he had some bad rounds and played better in the two-spot and we put Ethan at No. 1. Ethan lives and dies golf, and that’s what the secret is to this game. I think he plays seven days a week.” Smith and Scott tied for second place at last year’s NBC tournament, and they helped the Comets win all four conference shootouts. Marley was the medalist at two of the shootouts, while Scott won one. Smith was the medalist at the shootout at Chippewa, where Genoa took the top five individual places. The Comets, who have no seniors or freshmen, return four lettermen in Smith, juniors Issac Simmons and Brock Pollauf,

The beauty of racing is that no matter how bad a particular night goes, a driver gets a fresh start at the next race, often the very next day. Such was the experience this weekend for 410 sprint car driver Cap Henry. The Republic, Ohio driver missed the show Friday but came to Fremont Saturday, July 28 and passed Rob Chaney with just three laps to go to score his first victory of the season at “The Track that Action Built” on Baumann Auto Group Night. Henry, aboard the Lane Racing, Beer Barrel Bourbon, Metropolitan Landscaping, UTEC, Geck Electric, Wings Unlimited, FK Rod Ends machine, used a lapped car as a pick to drive around Chaney to take the lead in the Fort Ball Pizza Palace 410 Sprint A-main on lap 28 and drove to his fifth career win at Fremont Speedway. “I don’t know if Rob lost his brakes, but I could see he was struggling with that lapped car on the bottom. That’s the advantage of being in second; you can choose a line and go. We were doing an insanity there for awhile this year. We kept coming to the race track with the same set-up thinking it was going to fix itself. Finally this weekend we changed some stuff but I made us look like idiots last night but we’re in victory lane tonight. I felt like they should have put someone else in the car after last night...I drove so bad. I think we’ll keep the seat here another week,” said Henry. In an era of continuous change, the Baumann Auto Group is celebrating 62 years of serving the community. Buck Baumann continues his father Al’s vision in the seven dealerships that are in Fremont, Tiffin, Port Clinton and Genoa. (— by Brian Liskai /Liskai2x@roadrunner.com)

(Photo courtesy Robert Robinson) and sophomore Tommy Giles. DeStazio said he anticipates Simmons being the team’s No. 2 golfer and Pollauf being No. 3. “Simmons has really come a long way, and he plays a lot of golf with his dad,” DeStazio said. “We had a practice round at Maumee Bay and he shot a 38 from the blue tees. He had an opportunity for five birdie putts for nine holes. I think he will be one of the bigger surprises in the league. “Brock is probably the longest hitter I ever been around coaching,” DeStazio added. “Maumee Bay is 345 yards and he took a 3-wood and put it high on the right side of the green. That’s unbelievable. He’s going to be a big factor in our program and he’s capable of shooting in the upper 30s and lower 40s.” DeStazio said Giles should make an impact this season. “He’s going to be a really good golfer

the next couple years,” DeStazio said. “He has great length. I expect him to be in the top 10 in the NBC this year. He’s been playing golf probably since he learned to walk. His dad (Tom) used to be the golf coach at Genoa, and his dad is a pretty good golfer. Tommy has great length and hand-eye coordination, and he’s a great baseball player.” DeStazio said the team’s fifth man will likely be junior Mike Rightnowar, while the sixth spot will be filled by junior Ty Cairl or sophomores Aiden Hilbert and Joey Large. “Mike just started golfing last year,” DeStazio said. “He will probably be the most improved player on the team because of just starting last year. He works hard and he’s very athletic. We’re expecting a lot of good things from him. As my five-man, we just need him to shoot in the mid-40s. We think he’s gonna be a big part of our success this year.”

Elmore resident Travis Diehl, a 15-year-old Woodmore football player, lifting at the USPF Regional Powerlifting Competition in Oak Shade Grove, Oregon. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton/HEHphotos.smugmug.com)

Woodmore’s Diehl takes powerlifting to another level By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com It’s truly a sight to see. Like something out of an episode of ESPN’s Strongman Competition, men and women compete against one another lifting enormous amounts of weight while building camaraderie and cheering on one another. Instead of televised on a national network, the event took place in Oregon. On a Saturday morning as part of Oregon’s Boomfest celebration, the USPF Regional Powerlifting Competition featured stellar weightlifting competition at Oak Shade Grove. The Animal House Gym’s Mario Rizo, one of the organizers, says the event was a success. “This was the first USPF Regional Powerlifting event we threw,” said Rizo. “We received the ‘thumbs up’ in May and we had a vision of what we wanted it to look like. We are very happy with how it turned out.” Of the competitors, Travis Diehl and Emilio Duran are local athletes who have made a name for themselves. Diehl, 15, an Elmore resident, plays for the Woodmore football and track teams. He says these grueling events can last five hours. “I’ve been weightlifting since I was in sixth grade. My dad got me into it. Powerlifting helps build my strength and confidence,” he said. “It’s nerve-racking competing at an event like this — you’ve got all these people watching you, and this was my first event.” Diehl, who competes in the bench (209 pounds), squat (292) and deadlift (353) is going to be a sophomore, finishing of his freshman year with a 3.6 GPA. He is gearing up for his second season of football for Coach Lou Bosh’s Wildcats. Duran, 23, is a 2013 graduate of Clay High School, where he competed on the football and track teams. He makes his home in Oregon and currently works at the Toledo Correctional Institution. Duran, who has been powerlifting for

three years, can bench 436 pounds, squat 622 and deadlift 600. “I enjoy it a lot,” he said. “It’s a passion for me.” Duran competes in part because of the “great bonds” he is able to build with his competitors. Duran works out at the Animal House Gym, which is located on Starr Avenue in East Toledo. The competition was organized by owners Rizo and Oregon resident David Poiry. The Animal House Gym features some of Northwest Ohio’s strongest men and women, and it was on display Saturday. “The Animal House is a training facility that is a raw, bare-bones lifting gym,” Rizo said. “People come to the Animal House for results in power. People get what they put in and the atmosphere inside the gym will help those accomplishments. It reminds me of Rocky Balboa going to Russia for training and using that atmosphere to drive him to beat the Russian. “Powerlifting is a brotherhood/sisterhood and although you compete against one another, a true powerlifter will always cheer on the other person on the platform. My guys at The Animal House Gym are an extension to my family. My partner and I truly believe that is why we opened the only powerlifting gym in Toledo.” Duran credits the place for its atmosphere, backing up Rizo’s statements. “The gym is always a good time, there’s never a dull moment. It’s a brotherhood and sisterhood in there,” Duran adds. “Everyone gets along and it’s just a great environment.” Rizo works at the BP-Husky Toledo Refinery as a safety advisor and also as an Oregon firefighter and EMT. He credits the event’s many sponsors — Corporate Splash, One More Production Company, Grogan’s Towne & Country, Dunright Building Services, the Cock ‘n Bull, Anderson Powerlifting, Captain Jack; Sprague Farms; Erdmann Sound Productions and Oregon Mayor Mike Seferian and Tom Zunk for making it all possible. “I would like to thank my sponsors because it would’ve much more difficult to pull off on short notice,” Rizo said.
