Voters to decide on curfew

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com

Deter crime Render and other proponents of the curfew hope it will deter such crimes as loitering, ransacking vehicles, theft, fighting, vandalism, trespassing, littering, congregating on street corners, parks and yards, egging vehicles and houses, and toilet papering. Areas that are having issues include neighborhoods off Starr, Navarre, Woodville, Wheeling, Pickle and Coy. Render said neighborhoods are reluctant to put up Halloween and Christmas decorations outside because many are stolen. “That’s one of the biggest things we see,” she said.

Woodmore treasurer

Union rescinds no confidence vote

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The union representing the teachers of the Woodmore school district has rescinded its vote of no confidence in Jaime Pearson, the district treasurer.

The Woodmore Education Association last Wednesday announced its decision to rescind its vote from earlier this year, saying its members look forward to working collaboratively in the future.

“At this time, the Woodmore Education Association members are confident in our treasurer and her ability to continue to meet the financial needs of our district, our community and our students. We feel this is a very positive step for Woodmore Local Schools and look forward to working collaboratively toward a brighter future, the union’s statement says.

Carla Smith and Tammy Kissell, co-presidents of the WEA, issued the statement.

Pearson said Wednesday she was glad to have the union recognize the efforts of her office to improve record keeping and controls.

“I appreciate the union’s recognition

“

We recognized that she took over a district that had severe financial problems and she had to put controls in place to protect taxpayer dollars.

“

Oregon voters will consider a proposed curfew for minors that will be on the ballot on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

Members of block watch groups promoted the curfew at Safety Committee meetings earlier this year, but city council on March 21 voted 5-2 against the measure.

At the time, city officials announced plans to beef up road patrols in areas where block watch groups have complained about juvenile crime and to post signs that restrict attendance at some parks.

But proponents of the curfew circulated petitions to get it on the ballot so voters could decide.

The curfew would restrict youths younger than 18-years-old from being out between the hours of midnight and 6 a.m.

Lori Render, a member of block watch who helped circulate petitions in support of a curfew, said she’s confident the measure will pass.

“When I was circulating the petitions, support was over 50 percent,” she told The Press last week. “They thought a curfew was needed.”

Render said the ballot language left out the time when the curfew would be enforced, something people were interested in when she circulated petitions.

“I think they could have included that on the ballot,” she said.

of the extensive work done by the treasurer’s office to restore confidence in the finances that affect the Woodmore community,” Pearson said in a prepared statement. “With stronger internal controls and a thorough examination of our personnel records, Woodmore is at a point where the district can be proactive with our finances.

I look forward to the continued cooperation

of the unions, as well as all stakeholders, while we build a strong school district.”

Joe Liszak, president of the Woodmore school board, said Pearson has always had the support of board members.

“We recognized that she took over a district that had severe financial problems and she had to put controls in place to protect taxpayer dollars,” he said.

Pearson was hired in October 2014.

Last March, the WEA notified the school board of its vote, citing the union’s concerns over issues with payroll, personnel files, contracts, purchase orders, sick days and fee monies.

The union said the flow of information from the treasurer’s office was frequently “inaccurate and contradictory.”

In its response to the union, the board said Pearson had to restore accuracy to the payroll department which was “riddled with errors dating back several years” and Pearson was acting on board instructions to require all staff members have necessary approvals prior to a purchase.

During the board’s Oct. 18 meeting, Pearson received applause from residents after giving a financial report of the district’s operating cash flow and budget balance, Liszak said.

Study finds

Protecting streams that feed Lake Erie will take work

By Misti Crane Research Communications Ohio State Newsroom While current efforts to curtail agricultural runoff will improve the health of Lake Erie, much more work will be needed to protect the streams that feed the lake, new research shows.

A study of the western Lake Erie watershed found that increased conservation efforts will be needed on most of the farms in the watershed in order to protect arterial streams in Ohio, Michigan and Indiana.

The project, led by researchers at The Ohio State University and The Nature Conservancy, used computer modeling to get a handle on the impact of various conservation efforts in the western Lake Erie watershed. The area includes about 5.5 million acres of cropland, making it the most intensely farmed watershed feeding into the Great Lakes.

Balancing production, stream ecology In light of harmful algal blooms, conservationists, scientists and farmers are looking for ways to maintain robust agricultural production without causing damage to the surrounding ecosystem, said Stuart Ludsin, an associate professor of evolution, ecology and organismal biology and co-director of Ohio State’s Aquatic Ecology Laboratory.

The bulk of that work has focused on reducing phosphorous in western Lake Erie by 40 percent. While that’s an important goal, it doesn’t address the harms from sediment and nitrogen runoff, Ludsin said.

Nor does it focus on the health of streams throughout the watershed – waters that supply drinking water, provide habitat for fish and serve as a playground for anglers, kayakers and others, he said.

“Until our study, nobody had taken a hard look at how agricultural conservation practices aimed at protecting Lake Erie could influence the health of streams in the watershed. We’re asking what happens to water quality and fish communities if we implement conservation measures,” Ludsin said.

“It’s important to not just focus on the lake, but to consider the arteries that feed it. Our streams are as degraded as the lake.”

The study shows that both the streams and the lake will benefit if appropriate conservation efforts are implemented, he said.

Conservation efforts include erosion control and nutrient management, including being selective about how much fertilizer is used and when it is applied.

The report includes predictions about the effects of a variety of conservation scenarios to give stakeholders information on which to base plans going forward, he said.

“Our models tell us what sort of difference it would make to streams if we reduced the amount of nutrients and sediments in agricultural runoff and leaching by 20, 40, or 60 percent,” Ludsin said.

In embarking on this work, Ohio State and partners including The Nature Conservancy, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Ohio Sea Grant and Texas A&M University aimed to provide information that could optimize efforts to protect waters and the species that live within them from runoff, while maintaining the profitability of farms.

They also sought to determine what kind of financial investment will be necessary to achieve meaningful environmental benefits, both under current environmental conditions and taking into account the pressure of continued climate change.

The results highlight the role various farming practices could have in improving water quality in streams and in Lake Erie. To view the full report, go to www. lakeerieceap.com.

Agricultural runoff threatens fish in the majority of the western Lake Erie

watershed, Ludsin said.

Fish starting to benefit Analysis of state monitoring data has shown that current conservation efforts have improved fish community health, but more work is needed to control erosion and fertilizer runoff into streams, said Conor Keitzer, a former Ohio State postdoctoral fellow who is now an assistant professor at Tusculum College in Tennessee.

Through computer modeling, researchers found that stream health could improve with a modest increase in conservation efforts at farms in about 8 percent of the watershed. “But there’s going to still be a huge part of the watershed where water quality is a concern,” Keitzer said.

Nearly half of the farmland in the watershed would need improved runoff controls for widespread benefit for the fish that live in the streams, the analysis found. The research team used available observational data from the streams and fish populations to create a watershed-wide model to estimate how water quality impacts fish populations.

“We can make a big difference, but it’s going to take a lot of work and a lot of cooperation,” said Keitzer.

Erosion control and nutrient management in high- and moderate-need acres identified in the report could mean cleaner water and healthier fish communities in about half the streams in the watershed, they found.

This assessment points to the need to look not only at phosphorous, but at nitrogen and sediment in streams, the researchers said. Each of the three threatens fish in those waters.

Based on established thresholds for North American streams, the researchers found that a majority of streams in the watershed had phosphorous and nitrogen concentrations that could lead to algal blooms, which compromise drinking water and kill fish. Almost half of the streams had sediment concentrations that could harm fish.

“Results of our project clearly show that we can achieve significant improvements in both the streams and the lake, but it is going to take a lot of work,” said Scott Sowa, director of science at The Nature Conservancy in Michigan.

“It also shows that we can’t just focus on a single problem or stressor, like phosphorous. We are dealing with a multifaceted problem that will require a variety of practices and innovative collaborative solutions,” he said.

The researchers estimated it could cost nearly $150 million annually to treat farm acres deemed “high and moderate needs” based on their predicted contribution of nutrients and sediments to surface waters.

Keitzer stressed that the figure was a rough estimate, but one that illustrates that large investments are needed.

“Continued interaction among agencies and stakeholders regarding appropriate management and conservation targets in relation to monetary costs seem prudent,” the researchers wrote in the report.

They also pointed out that farms aren’t the sole contributor to problems in the lake and the watershed. Municipal waste systems, rural septic systems and point sources also contribute.

“I think people forget the importance of these streams, to both fish and people.

This project will help us identify win-win solutions that benefit Lake Erie and the thousands of stream miles in its watershed,” Keitzer said.

The research was supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service.

Monarch tagging effort at refuge celebrated

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Now that volunteers at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge have tagged more than 100 monarch butterflies, they’re hoping that some of the tags will be recovered next spring in Mexico.

The volunteers, organized as Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, joined forces with refuge staff to tag 107 of the butterflies and, in turn, learn more about the monarch’s migration to wintering grounds in the south.

Updates will be provided through emails. Visit www.friendsofottawanwr.com to join the list.

Data from recovered tagged monarchs are used to determine what pathways are taken during migration, the influence of weather and survival rates. Each tag has a unique code of letters and numbers.

The monarch population has rebounded slightly but still remains well below its long-term average, according to Candy Sarikonda, a conservation specialist with Monarch Watch.

“In 2013, we had the lowest monarch population ever recorded. The monarch population was extremely low during a three-year period, and then last year we saw a bit of a rebound. The monarch population increased to 4.01 hectares, an improvement over previous years but still 30 percent below the long-term average. Sadly, just as monarchs were preparing to leave the winter sanctuaries in Mexico and begin migrating north, a strong winter storm struck the sanctuaries. Some researchers estimate up to 50 percent of the monarchs perished in the storm, having frozen to death. This led to fewer monarchs returning north this spring, and a low number of monarch sightings this summer,” she said.

Last February, Elizabeth Howard, founder of Journey North, wrote that the number of monarchs wintering in Mexico had risen from record lows of the past three years.

“This year’s population contains 200 million monarchs compared to a long-term average of 300 million and a peak of 1 billion,” she wrote.

To counter the decline in the population of the monarch butterfly, the Ohio Pollinator Habitat Initiative this year expanded a pilot program to establish habitat areas for the butterfly by collecting milkweed seed pods.

The seeds are being used for new plantings for the butterfly throughout Ohio in the coming years.

Monarch caterpillars eat milkweed plants and the monarch butterflies use milkweed to lay their eggs.

Soil and Water Conservation District offices in Ottawa, Lucas and Wood counties participated this year in the program as collection points for seed pods.

Marci Lininger, a biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, said the milkweed plant is “essential to the survival of

Oregon to look at better lighting on main roads

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com

“

But on the main roads that the subdivisions often front, those areas don’t have lights.

I think we ought to look at our policy and perhaps change it...

“

Oregon City Council on Monday approved the installation of four street lights in the subdivision of Eden Park for plats two and three.

The developer has paid for the installation charges, and the property owners who will benefit from the lights will be assessed for the operating costs. The estimated cost to the property owners is 0.85 per front foot per year.

The lights are 100-watt high-pressure sodium vapor acorn style lights on fiberglass poles with underground service.

“We do require new subdivisions to have street lighting,” said Mayor Mike Seferian.

Councilwoman Sandy Bihn suggested that lights should be installed on main streets near subdivisions to improve safety.

“I’ve watched this through the years and it works well in the subdivisions,” said Bihn. “But on the main roads that the subdivisions often front, those areas don’t have lights. I think we ought to look at our policy and perhaps change it so there is lighting on the main roads as well as in the subdivisions when these are put in. Or, if not that, then what else the city can do to try and cover the areas. When you see a lit area, the road you are on to get to that area, is dark. I think for the administration

to look at the policies with regard to the main roads that are part of the subdivision would be a good idea.”

“We can look at it,” said Seferian. But he added that there have been problems with the impact of lights to surrounding property owners who are not part of a

subdivision. As a result, the city requires lights be installed only inside subdivisions and at intersections.

“You’re going to make some people unhappy,” said Seferian. “Some people will say `Well, we’re paying for their lighting because they’re not assessed,’ or `You’re making us have a light, and we didn’t even have a voice in it.’ So that’s how we came to the policy we have now. There might be a better one,” said Seferian.

“These are not easy issues,” said Bihn, “but at the end of the day, it’s about safety and making sure we have a community that is attractive and doesn’t look strange because of policies that are decades old. I encourage the administration to be innovative and come up with something. Maybe we can compare what other communities have done. Street lighting benefits all of us in terms of our travel and safety in the community. We’ve struggled through this for many years. The intersections are lit off Bay Shore Road, but when you look down the streets, it’s very, very dark. It seems like an area that needs some improvement in terms of policy and direction.”

“There is a very easy or quick solution,” said Seferian. “Order the whole city to be lit. Council has a couple of ways of going about it: Either order them in, or place it on the ballot and see if people want to light the whole city because they’re going to pay for it. I can’t argue with what you’re saying. It’s safer with the lights than

Two candidates for a seat on the Wood County Board of Commissioners have roots in governance at the local level and both see a need for the next board to foster better communication with municipalities and townships.

Walbridge Mayor Ed Kolanko, a Democrat, said his experience as the current president of Wood County Mayor’s Association and serving on several committees of the Toledo Metropolitan Area Council of Governments have shown him a need for improved communications between the county seat and local communities to “move the county forward.”

“I believe commissioners should be representatives of the entire county and be more engaged in local communities to strengthen Wood County as a whole,” he said.

A native of Walbridge, he also served six years on village council before becoming mayor.

Craig LaHote, a Republican, served on the Perrysburg Township Board of Trustees, before being appointed in 2015 to the board of commissioners, replacing Jim Carter, who retired.

He also sees strengthening working relationships with local communities as a priority for the board as revenues from the state Local Government Fund, Medicaid services tax and other sources come under greater strain.

An increase in sharing of resources, finding more efficient ways to provide services and greater cooperation between the board and local jurisdictions are some ways the board could offset the potential loss of additional revenues, he said.

The next board of commissioners will also continue to face issues such as the opiate epidemic and Lake Erie’s algal problem, according to LaHote.

While a trustee he helped negotiate a tax revenue-sharing agreement with the City of Toledo when FedEx relocated to the Ampoint Industrial Park and a similar agreement with the City of Perrysburg when Owens-Illinois relocated to Levis Park.

Both candidates have extensive business backgrounds.

Kolanko has worked for 20 years as a financial advisor, starting with Smith Barney and currently with Allstate Financial.

LaHote is a part-time instructor at Owens Community College where he is a member of the Computer Science Advisory Committee, and a part-time instructor at University of Toledo, where he is a member of the Information Services Advisory Council.

When not working, the candidates can be found volunteering or at public events.

The winner will serve a four-year term that begins Jan. 2, 2017.

without them. But we’ve always been a city that didn’t force some services down people’s throats.”

Bihn said only certain roads should have improved lighting.

“I don’t want the whole city lit. That was not the intent of my comments at all,” she said. As an example, she cited the lighting pattern down Navarre Avenue past Coy Road.

“It’s a major commercial area, but we have light then darkness, depending on the development. We don’t have a good lighting policy on our main road from Coy on out. And that needs to be lit for our community. I just think there are some opportunities when we get a subdivision, and there are properties that abut the main road. I would at least like to try and find something to start with that covers that and, if possible, look at our policy. It’s not just the people who live there who benefit. It’s all of us who benefit. Statistically, it shows lit neighborhoods are safer in general.”

City Administrator Mike Beazley said the lighting issue has typically been a difficult one to address in other communities as well.

“It’s been vexing to me, to say the least,” he said. “There are ways to lower costs in general with LED and other technology that’s been harder to get adopted.

There’s a group of cities that are discussing how to deal with this now, so I’ll be meeting with those folks in the coming weeks.”

Jerusalem recreation fields taking shape, definition

By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com Last week, tiling to help with drainage issues was completed on 10 acres that will become Jerusalem Township’s recreation fields.

The next step for Jerusalem Recreation is seeding for landscaping and leveling of playing fields, which will allow the township’s recreation department to begin play on another tee-ball and coach pitch field in the near future.

“There are a few more projects that we have planned. The next phase will be trees...lots of trees,” Jerusalem Recreation Director Mike Skitowski said. “In addition to providing shade, trees will also give the facility some definition. The talks are ongoing about a walking path that will circle the property. The Jerusalem recreation fields truly have come a long way from being a farm field just a few years ago.”

It was in 2008 that Jerusalem Township first announced it would create a recreation department and hire a director to lead it.

Skitowski was appointed recreation director in August that year. He is a Jerusalem Township resident and is employed by Oregon City Schools as an adaptive physical education instructor. He attended Sylvania Northview High School and has his masters of education from the University of Toledo.

In 2011, a private/public partnership broke ground for two baseball diamonds and two soccer fields on the 10-acre property adjacent to Jerusalem Elementary School. Some of the cost of constructing the fields was donated by Oregon-based Maumee Bay Turf Center.

In 2015, the township planted nearly 30 mature trees, including Oak and Elm, at the complex and started construction of a new $40,000 pavilion in the spring. The pavilion became reality later that year.

“It’s been a fantastic addition because it’s nice for teams to gather, not only for shade but for days when it rains. This structure gives the teams some shelter during unexpected storms. It also provides a place for a team picnic or gathering. It’s a

(Jerusalem Township photo) very nice building,” said Skitowski.

Right now, the 10-acre facility includes two diamonds, but the plan now is to reconfigure green space to eventually create two more baseball diamonds, two soccer fields, a flag football field, an additional tee-ball diamond, and more landscaping.

“All the property that the township owns is now developed or about to be developed, so the last part that is to be developed will be a tee-ball diamond out there and we’re kind of waiting to see what we’re going to do with the other side, but for now will just be a green space. That should be up real soon.

“We’re going to try and put a bunch of trees out there. We’ve been planting trees out there, but it’s been a farm field since forever, so we need to make it look like an athletic facility now. We’ve got some things in the works and it’s been interesting to watch it unfold.”

from a recreation levy, township trustees, and a seven-member board of directors that oversees township recreation.

“Most of it comes from money we get from a levy. We’ve been saving up for years and years and it’s finally coming through.

And, it’s nice to see in the summer time that there are three or four teams out there on a daily basis, so it’s being used, and that’s great,” Skitowski said. “All trustees, Dave Bench, Ron Sheahan and Joe Kiss, have been very supportive in all phases of development of the fields.”

Even through the project’s originations date back at least 15 years, trustees say Bench was the one who got the momentum started.

“David was really the big starting point,” Joe Kiss told The Press. “The trustees worked together well and really the rec board deserves a lot of credit to stay on it. There were some tough times — some tough hurdles to cross and we just finally were able to cross them. The dream is going to finally get here and it really is the

combination of a lot of groups of individuals working together and getting it done.”

Skitowski says when it comes to hosting tournaments, that will be “doable” someday but the facility is not quite there yet. He promises it will be pursued in the future. Youth baseball and softball diamonds are set for 60 foot bases, but can be adjusted to 75 feet if necessary.

Jerusalem Township Recreation does not act entirely as its own entity — it partners with the City of Oregon Recreation Department and Oregon City Schools, Skitowski stresses.

“We work side by side with the Oregon Recreation Department. We offer everything they do and the teams are combined with the Oregon Recreation Department. So our players, when they sign up, it’s Jerusalem and Oregon combined for their games. It’s tee-ball, baseball, volleyball, basketball, flag football, soccer — so all the traditional sports are offered. We’re just trying to get our facilities established so they have more usage in the future,” Skitowski said.

Command Officer’s Union, and Mike O’Connor, president of the Oregon Police Patrolman’s Association. “We believe that this would be an effective tool for officers in dealing with delinquent juveniles. It is our belief that passage of this type of legislation would result in a reduction in property crimes, specifically theft and criminal damaging offenses.”

Crime rising In 2012, there were 182 juvenile arrests in Oregon. That number dipped to 126 in 2013, then rose to 171 in 2014.

Surrounding communities that have a curfew for minors include Northwood, Toledo, Genoa, Pemberville, Walbridge, Rossford, Port Clinton and Sandusky.

At the March 21 council meeting, council members Sandy Bihn and Kathy Pollauf voted in favor of the curfew, while Steve Hornyak, James Seaman, Dennis Walendzak, Tim Zale, and Terry Reeves voted against it.

Hornyak at the time of the vote questioned whether a curfew would change the behavior of juvenile delinquents, saying it is the responsibility of parents to supervise their children.

Mayor Mike Seferian, also opposed to a curfew, expressed doubts it would deter juvenile crime.

Councilwoman Bihn called the curfew measure “unique” because block watch members decided to circumvent the action of council and take it to voters to decide.

“I don’t remember in my time ever having a citizen petition that went on the ballot, ever. It’s quite unique,” Bihn told The Press last week. “They did a lot of work to get the number of signatures required on the petitions to put it on the ballot.”

7 levy requests on Lucas Co. ballot

By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Voters in Lucas County will decide on seven levy requests next week.

The November 8 ballot will include a 0.7 mill renewal for the 9-1-1 Public Safety communication system, a 0.75 mill property tax renewal for the Toledo Zoo; a 0.17 mill property tax renewal for the Imagination Station; a 1.4 mill property tax renewal and 0.4 mill additional tax for Lucas County Children’s Services; a 2.9 mill property tax renewal for the ToledoLucas County Library; the three-quarter percent income tax renewal for the City of Toledo, and a 1.5 mill levy renewal for the Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority.

The countywide 9-1-1 system is seeking a 0.7 mill renewal, which costs the owner of a $100,000 home $21.11 annually.

The system transfers emergency calls to police and fire.

The 0.75 mill property tax renewal sought by the Toledo Zoo is a decrease from the zoo’s current .85 mill levy.

The owner of a $100,000 home would pay $22.97 per year for the renewal, a 12 percent reduction.

The revenue would go toward operating expenses, such as animal food, veterinary care, animal caretakers, the education department and maintenance and utilities.

The Imagination Station is seeking a 0.17 mill property tax renewal for operations. The levy costs the owner of a $100,000 home $5.13 per year. The revenue is used for traveling exhibitions, exhibits inside the building, and programmatic efforts, including “Adopt a School,” where programs reach into the schools as well as the schools coming into Imagination Station.

The science center offers programs for all ages, from early childhood to high school to adults.

Lucas County Children’s Services is seeking a renewal of a 1.4 mill levy, set to expire at the end of the year, as well as an

additional tax of 0.4 mills The renewal costs the owner of a $100,000 home a little over $36 per year.

The additional tax would increase the cost to over $48 per year.

The extra tax will help the agency address the increasing heroin and opiate epidemic. The agency is seeing an increase in the number of children needing services directly attributable to the epidemic.

The Toledo-Lucas County Public Library is seeking a 2.9 mill property tax renewal and an additional .8 mill levy.

Failure to pass the levies would mean severe cuts in library services over the next several years.

The levies would expand library hours, and update purchases of library materials, including resources in different formats for digital, audio books and streaming media.

The current 2.9 mill levy expires at the end of next year. The library would not start collecting the new revenue until January of 2018 The owner of a $100,000 home would

ODOT readying for winter The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is preparing for winter 2016/2017 by readying its snow and ice equipment, filling salt barns and ensuring operators and mechanics are well trained.

Throughout October and November, ODOT crews around the state will conduct 150-point inspections to repair and fine tune snow removal equipment in preparation for winter. The inspections are part of the department’s annual county-bycounty Operational Readiness Inspections.

“Each spring, the state’s ice and snow equipment is repaired and replaced before being put in storage,” said ODOT Director Jerry Wray. “Fine tuning in the fall ensures every plow, truck and spreader is road ready before the first snows fall.”

Despite Ohio’s mild winter last year,

ODOT’s snow plow trucks were driven more than 7 million miles plowing and pretreating roadways. That’s the equivalent to 281 trips around the Earth.

ODOT has more than 1,800 snow plow trucks and 3,000 operators that clear snow and ice from 43,000 miles of state, U.S. and interstate routes.

New this winter, motorists can download ODOT’s free mobile app – OHGO – which features winter road conditions and personalized traffic alerts with hands-free voice on the go. The app is available on the App Store and Google Play.

Last winter, 35 vehicles struck ODOT snow plow trucks as a result of following too closely. ODOT reminds motorists, “In Ice and Snow, Take it Slow.”

pay $116.81 per year for the 2.9 and .8 mill levies.

The City of Toledo is seeking a renewal of its three-quarters percent income tax.

The revenue would go toward the funding of salaries of city services, including economic development, police and fire.

“They are basic, essential services that we rely upon,” said Toledo Mayor Paula Hicks-Hudson. “It is a straight renewal.

We’re not asking for anything extra.”

The city raises revenue through a 1.5 percent permanent income tax, as well as the three-quarters percent income tax that is renewed by voters every four years.

State cutbacks in funds over the years have forced the city to use Capital Improvement funds to pay general fund expenses.

The Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority is seeking a 1.5 mill renewal from seven communities in its service district, which includes East Toledo. The 1.5 mill levy costs the owner of a $100,000 home $45.71 annually.

Opinion

Is anyone out there ‘getting’ Ohio’s water quality issues?

First, let me say that I get it.

I understand that the farmers in the Lake Erie Watershed were listening to the science and doing what everyone told them. It was once common knowledge that phosphorus did not move in the soil and that reducing tillage was the answer to the algal woes of Lake Erie because phosphorus attached to the soil.

Farmers did what they thought they were supposed to do. With less tillage reducing erosion, phosphorus could be applied when most convenient in the most convenient way. Lake Erie got better and the problem was solved. But it wasn’t.

Unfortunately, the science used to develop the recommendations for those practices had not taken all of reality into consideration. With this compliant shift toward conservation, broadcast phosphorus in reduced tillage situations started to concentrate on the surface and not attach to soil particles. This led to issues with surface runoff of small amounts of very potent dissolved phosphorus after big rains.

When broadcast in the fall and winter or early spring on bare soil before big rains, the problems were compounded.

The result, even after doing what they had been told to do, left farmers squarely in the crosshairs of the public blame game when Lake Erie’s ugly algae problems again bloomed. Farmers were frustrated and felt they had done their part, but the public was not pleased and there was plenty of data to support agricultural blame.

So, this fall I sat in a room at the National Museum of the Great Lakes in Toledo with numerous stern-faced urban/ suburban/environmental journalists in formal dress for a visit from Hillary Clinton later that day. They sat and listened to the summary from OSU researcher Elizabeth Dayton clearly stating: • Agricultural soil phosphorus levels are holding steady or trending downward in at least 80% of Ohio counties from 1993 through 2015.

• Soil nutrient testing is vital to deter-

(Press photo

by J. Patrick Eaken) mining the right amount and type of fertilizer needed for crops.

• Incorporating fertilizer into the soil through banding or injecting has the potential to reduce the concentration risk of phosphorus in runoff up to 90% under certain conditions.

• Tile drainage is an effective filtration system that can reduce soil erosion and prevent the loss of nutrients. In general, phosphorus concentration from tile runoff is less than in surface runoff.

• Current guidelines for phosphorus levels in soil established by Tri-State Fertilizer Recommendations appear to be on the right track.

• Nearly three-quarters of phosphorus in surface runoff is attached to and travels

with eroded soil sediment, making erosion control a key to phosphorus runoff control.

All of the journalists in that room heard this information, and maybe they even understood it. It is quite possible they know that farmers want to do what is right but also must balance the challenges of weather, logistics, economics, and countless other factors when making farm management decisions. They heard that farmers care about clean water, but do they get it?

I’m not sure. And if the journalists do not get it, do you think the general public will?

Agriculture I know you are trying to do what is right for the environment and for your farms. But in today’s ever increasing demand for accountability and traceability in all levels of our society, you not

only have to do what is right but you also have to demonstrate that you are doing things right in a way people who do not get what you are doing can understand. And now, courtesy of big investments in terms of time, money, collaboration and research, there are some fairly concrete answers on what needs to happen in agriculture to address water quality.

I get that: budgets are tight, time is limited, resources are stretched thin, prices are low, inputs are high, questions are numerous, trends are headed in the right direction, ag is not the only contributor, and there are plenty of “ifs” and “buts.” The general public and the stern-faced journalists, however, do not really seem to care.

They care about clean water and I know you do too.

The dry conditions in 2016 led to less runoff and, as a result, a smaller algae bloom in Lake Erie. Because of that, the issue was somewhat out of the spotlight this year, but we all know the algae issue has not gone away. And while there are still many questions, those in row-crop agriculture who want to address problems with water quality and costly nutrient loss now have some fairly clear guidelines to follow and plenty of help from Ohio farm organizations and agribusiness to help implement and showcase those efforts. The answers are simple and simultaneously complex.

In what will surely be an ongoing battle with nutrient loss in agriculture, we finally have some answers. Now we all need to make sure we are acting on them. Do you get it? I sincerely hope that you do.

Your Voice on the Street: By Stephanie Szozda What is the best thing you’ve ever gotten trick-or-treating?

The Press Poll If the presidential election were tomorrow, who would you vote for?

Hillary Clinton Gary Johnson Jill Stein Donald Trump

Shelby Readel Millbury “Throw back candy.

Amber Brossia Northwood “I remember one time I got a king size Hershey’s bar and that was pretty cool. It was the prize of the night!”

Levy merits passage To the editor: The Woodmore Board of Education is seeking a renewal of an emergency levy that was passed in 2011 and must be renewed in this election to retain the 12.5 percent property tax rollback on residences and 10 percent on Class 1 real property, which amounts to $75,000 per year on this levy. New millage levies that are not renewals will not qualify for this rollback and state money that comes with it. This emergency levy was the first “new” operating money for the Woodmore Local Schools since a previous levy was approved in 1993 and renewed since.

The Woodmore Levy merits passage because: • It is an emergency levy which has a fixed dollar amount and can only generate that dollar amount. When local valuations go up, the auditor adjusts the rates so the amount generated is as close to the amount of the levy as can be formulated. This adjustment was not made last year on our two emergency levies and the bond levy. This is being addressed by the auditor as required and at the request of the Woodmore Board of Education.

• The passage of this levy is necessary for the board to maintain our current programs and staffing. Any possibility of making improvements in the future depend on the passage of this levy.

• The district has a history of financial stability. The 1993 levy lasted until 2011 when this additional levy was passed.

• The board needs a consistent revenue stream to be able to provide our students with the educational experience the community expects.

• Communities are only as strong as their school system. We have for many years produced graduates who have gone on to careers of their choosing because of the education that they received at Woodmore.

Woodmore graduates are well represented in many professions and trades. We are proud of them. They are our future.

I am asking for support of the Woodmore $600,000 emergency levy renewal on Nov. 8.

Sam Preston Woodmore Board of Education member

Stay the course To the editor: After two failed attempts this year to pass the renewal levy, the Woodmore school board should have gotten the message that the property owners are fed up with sky high Current Agricultural Use Valuation taxes, computational errors resulting in higher property taxes that have to be returned to property owners, lawsuits, electric over-charges and additional tax requests for the auditorium and the income tax request.

Now is the time to reward ourselves, the tax-paying property owners, by pulling together and defeating this “emergency” levy.

If the levy is already figured into the budget, why call it an “emergency”? It’s more political language to obfuscate the already burdened tax paying property owner.

It was reported that $300,000 was reduced from the budget. Well, find $300,000 more and you won’t need an “emergency” levy. If this levy passes, I’m sure this money will be re-instated so at the next levy request it can be “cut” again, thus continuing this cycle over and over.

Times have changed. Like companies and banks that merge, this district should have been merged with Genoa, Fremont or Oak Harbor, resulting in no additional costs

Bryan Feeny Millbury “Five bucks. I just knocked on the door... said trick-ortreat and he gave me 5 bucks! How can you top that!”

of a new school and the 37-year tax levy burden that went with it.

By defeating this levy, we tell the Woodmore board to suck it up, stay the course, contain the costs, and do the best it can with what it’s already been generously given and to stop asking for more money.

Alan Snyder Elmore Editor’s note: The computational error and electric overcharge were the fault of the county auditor’s office and Village of Woodville respectively. The term “emergency levy” is a state definition to describe a levy with millage that fluctuates to generate a fixed dollar amount; in this case $600,000 annually.

If the levy is renewed, the school board is committed to maintaining a balanced budget before resinstating past spending cuts, Joe Liszak, board president, said last week.

Good stewardship To the editor: On Nov. 8, the voters of Sandusky County have the opportunity to consider a renewal levy for the Sandusky County Park District.

The Park District brings us White Star Park, the North Coast Inland Bicycle Trail, the Wilson Nature Center at Creek Bend Farm and more than 10 other parks. In addition to park facilities, the district provides entertaining and educational programming and supports local recreation throughout Sandusky County.

The district has successfully completed promises made 10 years ago. These promises include: • Construction of Wilson Nature Center at Creek Bend Farm • Clyde to Bellevue North Coast Inland Trail Section • Fremont-Lindsey-Elmore North Coast Inland Trail Section • Modernization of White Star Park Utilities (in final design) • Expansion of Programming Opportunities • No request for additional tax dollars

• Addition of White Star Beach hours The Park District has proven to be a good steward of public resources and provides valuable services throughout the county. I encourage Sandusky county voters to support the renewal of the Park District tax levy, which will not increase taxes.

Steve Gruner Gibsonburg Editor’s note: Mr. Gruner is a former director of the park district.

Promises kept To the editor: Every 10 years, the Sandusky County Park District asks the voters of Sandusky County to renew the 1 mill levy that helps provide money for the Sandusky County Park District. This 1 mill costs a $100,000 homeowner $35 per year.

This is a renewal and not new money.

Sandusky County Park District maintains 11 parks. Since 2007 when the last levy was passed: • Park attendance has increased 200 percent • 15 miles of bike trail were constructed • $500,000 in local community grants were awarded • There have been more than 15,000 program presentations • Seven new parks have been acquired (with state and federal grant money).

Promises made in 2007 included developing Fremont-Elmore and Clyde-Bellevue bike trails; acquiring Creek Bend Farm with no tax money, construction of Wilson Nature Center at Creek Bend Farm (no tax money used), modernizing restroom facilities at White Star (in final design). All are completed or underway.

Promises made, promises kept.

eral issues and candidates. This letter is to specifically ask the voters of Woodmore School District to support the passage of the renewal levy.

This levy is important to the district to continue to provide the quality education that our district deserves and desires. Our theme for the Levy Committee this campaign is “Our School, Our Community, Our Future.”

The Woodmore school district is spread out over two counties, two townships and two villages, but what brings all these entities together is Woodmore School. We must look at our school as a community that we all can be proud of, and work together to make this district the best it can be for the future of district and students.

I feel we are headed in the right direction with positive outlook with our finances and transparency with the board. It has been a long road to see this turn around with our board. Now it is time to support our school and keep moving forward in a positive direction with a yes vote on Nov. 8.

In anticipation of scary season, the Locke, Birmingham and Oregon branch libraries issued a challenge to young writers: get your “spooky� on and pen an entry in the “Get Your Spooky On� short story contest.

The contest, open to grades 4-12, “dead�-lined Oct. 13, giving librarians time to read the ghostly tales and choose first-, second- and third-place winners from each branch. First-place prize included a Ghost Hunter’s Society t-shirt, a notebook to continue writing endeavors, a book of tattoos and $5 McDonald’s gift certificate. Secondand third-place winners received a notebook, tattoos and a $5 McDonald’s gift certificate.

Locke’s first-place winner, Benson Bowman, a fourth-grader at Oakdale School, was very surprised to learn his story won.

Locke Children’s Librarian Tim Loge told Benson of his first-place honors in a surprise announcement in the school cafeteria, where his parents and grandparents joined the gathering of fourth-graders.

Explaining what led the judges to choose Benson’s story, “The Ghost That Wasn’t a Ghost,� Loge said, “First, it was spot-on for a traditional story – it had a beginning, middle, and an end. The spooky mystery is solved all within—by the way, only 324 words. “Second, Benson used descriptive language,� he said. “For example, in the first paragraph he tells us about carving pumpkins, a spooky basement and a church graveyard. This all builds tension and expectation for the reader. “And lastly, he uses his sense of humor making the story fun,� Loge said. “The Ghost That Wasn’t a Ghost�

It was the night before Halloween and my best friend Jon and his little brother Paul and I (Marvin) were at my grandma’s house. We were waiting for grandma to get back from the store with the pumpkins.

We were planning on carving them for Halloween. My grandmother lives in a big two story house with a spooky basement.

The house is right on top of a hill next to the church graveyard.

We didn’t have much to do so we went down in the old basement to investigate a strange noise that we heard coming from there. We started going down the stairs and became frightened because it was very dark and we couldn’t find the light. I knew there was a flashlight in grandma’s drawer in the kitchen. We started downstairs.

Meanwhile, my grandma came home and saw a strange light roaming from the basement. She became afraid and ran to the neighbor’s to call the police because, “grandmas don’t have cell phones.�

We saw strange shadows in the corner of the basement. It looked like a ghost rising off the floor. It was making funny noises that sounded like “Ooohhh.� Jon and Paul were so scared that you could hear their teeth clattering. With the flashlight in hand, I dove at the ghost only to hear a screech and saw my grandmother’s cat Felix. He was stuck under one of Grandma’s old sheets.

Meanwhile, Grandma came in behind Officer Barney looking like she saw a ghost. When I told her what had happened she began to laugh so hard that her teeth fell out.

Oregon Branch Li Libr Library brar br ary y First Place, Chloe Strong ron ng 5th grade, Homeschool “The Trick or Treat Phantom�

It was cold and stormy and pretty much the worst night to go trick-or-treating. It was the first year my parents let me go around the block by myself. There were people wearing everything from fairy princess to zombie costumes. I was a glow-inthe-dark skeleton.

I was only to the fifth house when suddenly I heard a, “Help! HELP!�

I turned around. “What the‌â€? I said.

Then I saw a black glove reach out from the bushes and grab a mummy that was behind me. “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!� the mummy screamed and another black glove came out of the bush. The mummy fell to the ground. Struggling the gloves let go. Too scared to think, the mummy ran home tripping every few feet.

I looked at the bush and two orange eyes looked back. Startled, with my heart pounding, I ran to the next yard. “Talk about creepy,� I whispered.

Just then, a big gust of wind passed and I heard another, “Help!� and a witch passed out on the ground. I saw the orange eyes again in a tree. While my heart was thumping three times a second, I ran across the street. I heard another group scream and run. “What a crazy Halloween,� I said.

Everything was happening so quickly.

As I slipped behind some garbage cans I thought how I’ll explain this to friends outside the neighborhood. There I waited,

and waited, and waited. Finally, when everybody was scared into their houses or tired of the cold, I peeked out, crossed the street, and ran down the concrete sidewalk to my house, all of the night’s memories passing through my head.

When I got to my house, something was different. “All the lights are off‌ I thought. I looked down at my watch. 8:15.

My parents don’t go to bed until midnight on Halloween. The orange eyes passed through my mind. I heard my teacher talking in my head about how someone’s eyes can change color when they’re extremely mad and angry.

I heard it! Cracking leaves in the bushes! I looked around to see if anybody was watching. I put my trick-or-treat bag on the ground and slowly started walking to the bush.

I heard it again. Whatever it was, I decided I was going to grab it and find out. Then excited, scared and half-crazy, I pounced. I grabbed a black glove. “Owww!� came a voice from the bush.

Surprised, I let go. My best friend Jacob crawled out from the bush. “Were you the one scaring me?!� I said. “Yes, sorry,� he answered. “It’s fine. Just don’t do it again,� I replied. I picked up my trick-or-treat bag and invited Jacob inside.

Just then, I heard a groan, a big one. “What’s wrong Jacob?â€? I asked. e,â€? , h e sa said id.. id “Uh, that wasn’t me me,â€? he said. d ssaw a w aw ha hat at made I turned around and what o th thee gr grou und n ‌. ‌ the noise and I fell to ground‌.

Birmingham Library rary First place, Jasmine L Lucas Grade 5, Ella P. Stewart School Once upon a time there were three girls – Cindy, Arianna and Saniya. Cindy was 15. Arianna and Saniya were 15. They met when they were in pre-school and they were still friends. They always did stuff together. One thing they did was go to a costume party. The next day it was Halloween.

The girls planned to go into the woods when it was dark. They heard something behind them. When they turned around there was a goblin! They ran as fast as they could. Cindy fell. The other girls were so scared the they left Cindy behind. When Cindy got up, the goblin was behind her.

When she saw it, she started to run again.

Finally she saw the other girls and ran up to them. Cindy started to cry and said “why did you leave me behind?� They said “Because we were scared.� The goblin caught up with them. When it got behind them, Saniya kicked it, and it went flying.

It never came back.

Oak Harbor H.S. students christen donated spirit rock Oak Harbor High School is the home of a new spirit rock donated by Galen and Sue King. The rock is located near the front entrance to the high school by the flagpole.

Mr. and Mrs. King indicated that they were motivated to make the donation because they were so appreciative of the Senior Passes that allow senior citizens (62 and older) to attend home B-C-S sponsored athletic events free, and that they are paying it forward with this gift.

At a recent board meeting, the B-C-S Board of Education extended its gratitude to the Kings and others who helped to install the approximately 8,000 pound boulder valued at $800. The board also thanked Henry Gurtzweiler, who donated the use of a crane to lift the boulder into place; Jeff Winterfield and Ron Lajti, who oversaw the project; students Jeffrey Winterfield and Dylan Mansor, who dug the hole in which the boulder sits and Tait Miller for his time operating the crane.

Students at the high school were excited about the addition of the spirit rock.

“I love our spirit rock. It is something I’ve never known Oak Harbor to have, so I feel it

is especially special that the Class of 2017 could help bring one to our school,” said senior Maddie Rathbun.

“The Art Club at the high school has taken the lead in christening our donated spirit rock, and I am sure there will be other groups to follow,” said Principal Cheryl Schell. “We have a great student body that has embraced school spirit and truly cares for and supports each other’s club and sporting events. The rock just adds a visible shout out to these groups.”

Art Club student Savannah Hetrick said that the spirit rock “ties all the students together.”

Athletic Director Drew Grahl said he would like to thank the rock donor and all of the other volunteers that made the Oak Harbor High School Spirit Rock a reality.

“We have an amazing number of activities available to our students at Oak Harbor High School, and this rock will give all of our students an opportunity to express the pride that they have in the activities that they participate in. I am sure that this Spirit Rock will provide a lot of great memories to B-C-S students for many years to come.”

Clay’s Wamer, Kiss finding new ways to contribute

By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Clay quarterbacks coach Gary Allen approached Reese Wamer four days before the Eagles’ game against rival Waite back in September and told the sophomore he was replacing senior Josh Kiss as the starting quarterback just three games into this season.

“I was a little nervous, I’m not gonna lie,” Wamer said.

Wamer ran for two touchdowns and threw for another score in the Eagles’ 28-7 victory over the Indians on Sept. 9 “They prepared me throughout the week and I was ready come Friday,” Wamer said.

“When I got in that first drive and it went well, and I was ready to play. We marched down the field. I had a couple short rushes, some key third-down rushes and some passes. It was pretty satisfying that I could get in the game and lead the team.”

The day after beating Waite, Allen informed Wamer that he was officially Clay’s new starting quarterback. Wamer’s next start was against Three Rivers Athletic Conference power Central Catholic. He led the Eagles to a TD on their opening drive, but the Irish pulled away from there.

Fast forward one month and Wamer now feels like a different quarterback in the Eagles’ spread offense. He ran for 112 yards and threw for 165 yards and two touchdowns in Clay’s 20-13 TRAC win over visiting Fremont Ross. Wamer’s sister, Jaycee, a senior, was also named homecoming queen.

“I’m very comfortable,” said the 5-foot10, 160-pound Wamer. “At first I didn’t make the best reads, but now the coach (Mike Lee) gives me the nod to throw it deep if I have a receiver out there and I feel I can make a play. The plays are coming to me easier and I’m more comfortable than I

Last year Kiss, who completed 53 percent of his passes (137 for 258) for 1,520 yards and 10 touchdowns, was an Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press honorable mention selection at quarterback.

Wamer said Kiss, who also starts at wide receiver and defensive back, has been supportive of the quarterback switch. He had scored three touchdowns this year heading into the game at Lima Senior (a 4027 Spartan victory).

“Josh was struggling the first couple games,” Lee said. “He had quite a few turnovers and we had to make a change to amp

up Josh’s performance. We wanted to give him a break and pick him up a little bit.

Josh has become a receiver for us and has done a nice job.”

Heading into the final regular season game against St. Francis de Sales, Wamer had completed 91 of 187 passes for 1,257 yards and 10 touchdowns. He rushed 72 times for a team-high 259 yards and two scores. Kyle Miller and Mason Baker have 198 and 287 yards on the ground, respectively.

“Reese is a pretty good athlete and he sees the field well,” Lee said. “He has deceptive speed and is very elusive. He gets

out of situations you wouldn’t think he could. He’s got those eyes in back of his head. Sometimes he gets out of stuff and you think, how did he do that?”

Wamer’s last-second decision in the fourth quarter a week ago against Fremont Ross was a thing of beauty.

Facing second-and-3 from the Eagles’ 34-yard line. Wamer dropped back and got hit at the knees just as he lofted a deep pass to fellow sophomore Trey Reddick. The 66yard touchdown pass, with 10:23 left in the game, proved to be the game-winning score for Clay (2-7, 1-5 TRAC).

“We only had one guy going out for that play, and that was Trey,” Wamer recalled. “I had a checkdown receiver, which was Josh, but Trey was the only one going deep. Their cornerback hesitated because he saw Josh going in motion. Trey had a couple steps on him and I just threw it to him to make the play. He had him beat by two or three steps, so I just threw it to him.”

Reddick leads Clay with 17 catches for 400 yards, followed by Jake Lingohr (18 for 242) and Jake Novak (15 for 271).

Wamer said he likes playing in the Eagles’ offense because it features a lot of passing plays and allows him to improvise if the play breaks down. He started at point guard as a freshman on Clay’s varsity basketball team the second half of last season.

“I feel like I have a good arm if a play gets open down the field, and I have good legs,” Wamer said. “We have a couple of designed running plays for the quarterback, and it’s nice to get that push from the line.

I’m pretty shifty when I get through the line and I can make people miss.”

He added that the victory over the Little Giants “was very positive for us.”

“We prepared all week and we knew we could get that first TRAC win,” Wamer said. “It was just a good feeling, knowing we got that win in the TRAC.”

Gibsonburg’s backfield trio — catch them if you can

By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Coaches know they have to be able to put their players in the best possible positions in order to win.

Gibsonburg football coach Steve Reser and his staff did exactly that after going 10-1 last season and entering 2016 with just six returning starters on both sides of the ball. The offense, however, was still in the hands of senior Ryan Clark, whose rushing role and passing numbers have somewhat diminished this season in favor of a more running back-oriented attack.

“With him and Madison Jaso and Alex Richards in the backfield, we went more to a two-back offense with an offset pistol (formation),” said Reser, in his seventh season.

“That doesn’t give Ryan many opportunities to throw too many times, and he hasn’t had that many opportunities to run it either.

“That being said, it hasn’t affected how Ryan plays the game or is a team leader.

He understands that’s what we have to do to win ballgames. He’s taken (his role) in stride very well. In Division VI football you have to coach the players you have. This team this year has to run it more, and Ryan has done very well accepting that. He does everything you would expect him to do.”

TAAC title with the Locomotives with a win over Hilltop and a Montpelier loss to Northwood.

Gibsonburg, which routed Cardinal Stritch, 66-26, last Friday, could make the D-VI state playoffs in Region 22 with a win over Hilltop (2-7). The Bears were averaging 39.9 points a game after nine games and allowing 21.6 points per game, Clark and the speedy Jaso and Richards would play a huge role in what transpired on the final weekend of the regular season.

Clark was 102-of-202 passing for 1,497 yards and 12 touchdowns, with six interceptions, heading into the final week. He was voted the TAAC Player of the Year last season after throwing for 2,408 yards and 31 touchdowns and running for 516 yards and eight scores.

“Ryan has been an outstanding leader, in the offseason and throughout the season,” Reser said. “He’s had a different year than last year because he’s had a different team. We have transitioned to more of a running team.”

Jaso, who plays tailback and middle linebacker, leads the Bears with 1,242 yards rushing on 134 carries (9.3 average) and 14 touchdowns. He also has 13 catches for 172 yards and one TD, and he has two interceptions on defense.

“Madison is a great athlete,” Reser said. “He did a great job at tailback last

year, and this year he has stepped up his game. He gets to the edge very quickly and hits the hole very quickly. He’ll run around you and is a very physical runner as well.

Tackling Madison is a tough task. He’s just a strong running back and he always works for the extra yard.”

Richards, a fullback and inside linebacker, has carried the ball 58 times for 543 yards (9.4 average) and eight touchdowns.

He also has seven catches for 73 yards and one score.

Reser said the Bears were “lucky” to get Richards two years ago, when he moved in from the Indianapolis area.

“He’s been a great asset, just phenomenal,” Reser said. “He is a great running back and is also powerful. His vision is what makes him great. He does a great job of seeing the hole, and his jump-cut ability from side to side is uncanny. He’s done it since he got here. His ability to see a hole and hit the hole is great. He doesn’t have lot of top-end speed, but he’s had some huge runs because he has great vision.”

Reser said the Jaso-Richards combination forces defenses to pick their poison when it comes to stopping the Bears’ ground game.

“The running backs complement each other,” Reser said. “They bring different styles to the game and that gives us a different look on offense.”

Stryker looking to be conference’s tenth football team

By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com It looks as if the Toledo Area Athletic Conference may get to 10 schools for football after all.

Buckeye Border Conference member Stryker is going through a mandatory probationary period and looks to be adding varsity football soon. Last Saturday, Northwood’s junior varsity played the Stryker JV for the first time.

Northwood football coach Ken James says that if Stryker does begin a varsity team and joins the TAAC for football only, it will give the league the opportunity to split into two divisions — an east and west to reduce travel.

The west would likely consist of BBC members Stryker, Edon, Hilltop, and Montpelier with either Ottawa Hills or Toledo Christian joining them. The east would consist of Northwood, Danbury, Cardinal Stritch, Gibsonburg, and OH or TC, but James warns that he’s “not absolutely positive it would shake out that way” and everything remains speculative.

“Stryker has already contacted the TAAC about joining in football only. The league will probably look at how viable the program is and revisit the issue in two or three years,” James emailed The Press.

“They had 25 players suited up when we played them, so I think they will be able to get it going. Their community seemed pretty excited about the prospect of having football. They had a really good crowd for a JV game.”

Winterfield had Oak Harbor contending for playoffs

By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com In an up-and-down season that has featured its share of twists and turns, Oak Harbor was in playoff contention entering its final game.

Led by quarterback Jeff Winterfield’s 1,000-yards plus passing effort, the Rockets were ranked ninth in the Division IV, Region 14 standings, less than two points behind No. 8 Bellevue (6-3) for the final postseason spot heading into Friday’s final regular season game against Ottawa County rival Port Clinton.

Oak Harbor was 5-4 with a 2-3 record in the Sandusky Bay Conference’s Bay Division and sports impressive victories over Eastwood and Perkins that have earned them key computer points.

Rocket wins over Vermilion and Fremont St. Joseph got them back over .500 after experiencing a three-game losing streak, but it would have taken a win over highly-touted Port Clinton (8-1) Friday night to get them there. The Redskins were ranked first in the region heading into Friday’s contest.

“I think our kids are really excited about the potential of making the postseason. You put all the hours in, starting August 1, and it’s very rewarding to be playing in Week 9 and 10 and still have a chance at the postseason,” said Oak Harbor coach Mike May. “We’re just focusing on trying to get better every day and peaking at the right and hopefully we’ll be playing in Week 11.”

Following a 41-7 loss to Genoa in week 2, Oak Harbor defeated Eastwood, 35-28, to improve to 2-1 before losing three straight games during a rough part of its schedule that included Edison, Huron and Clyde.

But the Rockets persevered and came out with a chance at getting to the postseason.

“I think a good reflection of his leadership was after the tough three-game stretch.

We were backed into a corner. It took Jeff Winterfield, Dylan Mansor and the other

Oak Harbor senior quarterback Jeff Winterfield. (Press photo by Russ Lytle/ Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP) seniors and they led us to where we continued to fight ourselves out of that corner,” said May. “If you lose three in a row midseason, some football teams fold and some continue to fight and get better. We have continued to fight and get better, and that’s a reflection of them.”

Heading into the SBC battle with PC, Winterfield was hopeful his team could get into the playoffs.

Chasing school record Winterfield was within striking distance of the school’s single-season record of 1,275 yards, which is held by Chad Schwartz, who led the Rockets to the Division III regional finals in 1995, where Oak Harbor lost, 107, to eventual-state champion Clyde. If Winterfield throws for 287 more yards, he’ll break the record. At his current pace, he’ll finish with 1,236 yards.

Winterfield, who also plays basketball, has worked year-round to stay in shape and build muscle mass to enable himself to take the beating that comes with running the ball so much.

“I love playing sports and I put a lot of time and effort into them. I go to camps and lift year-round and play other sports to keep my skills up. Because of the competition we face, I know that I need to be stronger and faster than my opponents to get that edge on the field or the court,” said Winterfield. “I love having the ball in my hands and being a dual-threat quarterback is great because I have more opportunities.

I love everything about it and I don’t really feel a lot of pressure.”

Winterfield, a two-year starter, has come a long way since entering high school.

“From the time he was a freshman, he’s really developed into a man, he’s physically developed. He’s worked really hard in the weight room,” said May.

veloped is as a runner; he’s the primary focus of our offense,” said May. “He makes reads on whether to hand it off or run it.

He’s really developed into a good leader on our football team overall.

“When most people think of the Wing-T, they think about running the ball and ball control. Coach (Scott) Schulte has said that Jeff’s ability to throw the ball makes us different. Most defenses want to load up the box and stop the run, but Jeff allows us to loosen up the defense because he can throw it.

ally depressing others and we’ve lost some games we should’ve won, but we are still in position to make the playoffs, which is our goal, so I’m alright with how things have gone,” said Winterfield. “It’s been amazing.

High school football is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and it’s been great going out there playing with my buddies.”

Winterfield was at his best in those two marquee wins. The 35-28 victory over the Eagles saw Oak Harbor dominate in the first half as it raced out to a 28-point lead at halftime. Winterfield had one of his best games, accumulating 283 yards of total offense (196 passing, 87 rushing) while throwing for two long touchdowns (43, 52), both to Matt Harris, and running for another. In the win over the Pirates, Winterfield completed 14-of-21 passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns and ran 14 times for 76 yards as the Rockets controlled the tempo and time of possession as it kept the ball away from Perkins’ rushing attack.

In a 34-0 SBC win over Vermilion, the Rockets relied more on the run as nine different backs put up a total of 337 yards on the ground, including Winterfield running for 45 yards on 11 carries and a touchdown.

He also completed 7-of-11 passes for 68 yards, including two to Harris for 31 yards, three to Raymon Behlmer for 20 yards, and one each to Jaret Parker (9 yards) and Caleb Oberther (8 yards).

After nine games, Winterfield completed 79-of-133 passes for 1,057 yards, good for just over 59 percent, and he has thrown 12 touchdowns and eight interceptions.

But what’s just as impressive is the fact that he leads the club in rushing with 94 carries for 526 yards and five scores. In five games, Winterfield has rushed for at least 66 yards and has two long touchdown runs this year — a 75-yard scamper against St. Joseph and a 63-yard dash against Fostoria. Four times, he’s accumulated at least 229 yards of total offense.

Rocket seniors finish career 36-1 in Sandusky Bay

By Yaneek Smith and J. Patrick Eaken sports@presspublications.com The Oak Harbor Rockets boys soccer team won its second consecutive Division II district title with a 5-1 victory over Maumee (11-7-2) at Lake Community Stadium Thursday night.

The Rockets got goals from four different players on the night. Mark Bodi opened up the scoring late in the first half after Maumee’s defense held Oak Harbor off the board despite owning the majority of the possession. Maumee won the coin toss and elected to take the wind, but the Oak Harbor defenders held the Panthers scoreless through the first 40 minutes.

Oak Harbor got two second half goals from outside shots by Liam Hall. Nate Poiry and Tyler Bowlick each added second half goals as well to pull away. Maumee got a late goal midway through the second period on a penalty kick, but it was not enough to stop the Rockets. Tyler Bowlick, Nate Poiry, Liam Hall, and Nick Damron all assisted on goals as well. Goakeeper Andy Buderer stopped all shots on goal Thursday except the penalty kick.

Oak Harbor plays in the regional semifinals next Wednesday at Perkins High School at 7 p.m. against the winner of Saturday’s Bay Village Bay vs Rocky River contest.

The victory set a school record with 17 wins on the season. They are 17-1-1 heading into the regionals.

Buderer was faced with the task of having to replace the now-graduated Kyle Draper, who had a stellar career of his own.

Buderer has met the task, as shown when he led his team an 8-0 shutout victory over Old Fort —even though he needed just one save. In a 7-1 non-league win over Norwalk, three keepers, Buderer, Brian McMullen and Kyle Smith combined for three saves. As a result, Buderer, a junior, is second team All-Sandusky Bay Conference.

“Of course we don’t want him to have to make any saves during a game, but when he does, it’s nice having him back there,” said Oak Harbor’s top scorer, Poiry, a senior forward. “He’s a reliable keeper with great reaction times.”

Coach Ken Filar added, “Andy is an extremely hard worker and is his own worst critic. He is very dedicated and driven to be a great goalkeeper. We can’t always spend the amount of time on goalkeeper train-

(Press photo by Russ Lytle/Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP) ing during the week that we would like, so Andy has taken it upon himself to do some goalkeeper-specific drills and activities that we’ve worked on previously in addition to some things he took from the goalkeeper camps he’s attended.

“A benefit is that a few of the younger guys who are thinking about playing goalkeeper have joined him before our normal team practice to work on their skills. Andy is very athletic and enjoys diving during training and making physical plays. The coaches have full confidence in Andy to play as well as and potentially surpass Kyle Draper. Kyle (Smith) is also a strong goalkeeper and is not far behind Andy. We feel good about where we’re at and the depth at the goalkeeper position this season.”

senior Quintin DeWalt on the outside and seniors Donovan Damron and Zach Hess in the middle. That’s a big part of the reason Buderer only had to deal with one shot on goal in the win over the Stockaders, and the Rockets just had to worry about three shots on goal against Norwalk. It was more of the same in tournament action last week.

In a district semifinal game at Lake Community Stadium, the Rockets defeated Genoa, 4-0.

“It was another team win for the Rockets as four different players scored. Nate Poiry scored in the first half off a pass from Liam Hall to take a 1-0 lead into half time. Oak Harbor controlled the ball for the majority of the first half but Comet junior goalkeeper Devin Jensen played outstanding and stopped numerous Rocket chances,” Filar said.

Oak Harbor scored 27 seconds into the second half when Holden Pelz crossed the ball in from the right touchline to Liam Hall, who finished it to the far post. Nick Damron scored from of a hard Nate Poiry shot that rebounded off the goalkeeper.

Tyler Bowlick took a pass from Liam Hall late in the game and hit a hard and low line drive near post from 25 yards out, giving the Rockets their final three goals.

Buderer made five saves on the night and the Oak Harbor defenders earned their third shutout in a row and seventh of the season.

Oak Harbor also finished undefeated in

the Sandusky Bay Conference at 7-0. The seniors earned their fourth straight SBC title with a conference record of 36-1 during that span.

Poiry is the Sandusky Bay Conference Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. Joining Poiry on the All-SBC first team are junior forward Nick Damron, senior center midfielders Tyler Bowlick and Hall and Donovan Damron on defense.

Joining Buderer on the second team are defenders DeWalt and Hess. Honorable mention selections are senior midfielders Lucas Greggila, Pelz, and Mark Bodi along with sophomore defender Lacer. It is the second time in three years that Oak Harbor has gotten 12 all-league honorees, the most allowed per team.

Bowlick and Hall each tallied hat tricks in the SBC win over Old Fort. Also adding goals for the Rockets were Damron and senior midfielder Mark Bodi. Bowlick and Poiry also each had two assists and Pelz added another.

Filar said his squad “had a full team effort” in their rout over Norwalk. Six different players scored for the Rockets, who were led by Poiry with two goals. Bowlick, Hall, Nick Damron, Greggila, and Pelz each added a goal. Six players also contributed with an assist – Pelz, Poiry, Greggila, Bodi, Nick Damron, and Hall.

“We constantly stress playing as a team and not worrying about who scores,” Filar said.

Inspirational Message of the Week: What’s Your Story?

You often hear it said that only you can define what success means to you. While this is certainly true, it doesn’t go far enough. That is, the story of our life is something that only we can properly tell. We certainly rely on others to help us with the details, since no one remembers their own birth, or can know what happened while they were under anesthesia or otherwise unconscious, but it’s up to us to create the guiding narrative of our own life story. And don’t we all want there to be a story worth telling when it comes to our own life?

While we are alive the story is necessarily unfinished, but as we get older we begin to see certain themes coming

Genoa

together. Whatever your life story is about, make sure that the way you live makes you a hero and not a villain. And like any good story, the parts that tell us the most are the trials and the struggles we go through. It’s easy to be calm, cool and collected when everything is going smoothly. The real question is whether you can maintain your composure, and your values, when things start to fall apart? Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12

Sponaugle wins district by nearly a half-minute

Hannah Sponaugle. (Press photo by Lee Welch/FamilyPhotoGroup.com)

Eastwood senior Hannah Sponaugle’s long distance running career just keeps blossoming.

Sponaugle finished in first place at the Owens Community College Findlay campus Division II district cross country meet, closing in 19:15.36, which is more than 28 seconds ahead of second place finisher Anna Kovacs, a Central Catholic junior who finished in 19:43.7.

A week earlier, she finished first in the Northern Buckeye Conference cross country race, closing in 19 minutes and 46.96 seconds — nearly one minute ahead of the runner-up, Woodmore freshman Faith Morris (20:40.26), in the 5K race.

It is the fourth straight year she won the NBC meet — no athlete, male or female, has done that in the history of the NBC nor the Suburban Lakes League. She has also won the district meet three of her four years, finishing as runner-up the other time, and she has qualified for state three times.

Sponaugle still holds the school record with a time of 18:41 run last year at the

league meet. She has finished seventh at the regional three straight years. Her best place at state was her freshman year when she placed 33rd.

At this year’s Owens College D-II district, the Oak Harbor girls, led by sixth place Makayla Wagner (20:29.61) and seventh place freshman Hope Sievert (20:38.19), finished third as a team, scoring 73 points to trail Wapakoneta (60) and Tiffin Columbian (65). Eastwood (147) was sixth and Lake (261) ninth.

The Oak Harbor boys cross country team also finished third at the D-II district meet, scoring 83 points to trail Maumee (29) and Liberty-Benton (81).

Oak Harbor senior Austin Tallman (18:01.94) was ninth and senior Mark Bodi (18:03.61) was 11th. Genoa, led by 14th place sophomore Bobby Bench (18:10.73) was fourth with 106 points.

In the Sandusky Bay Conference race, the Oak Harbor girls were third in the Bay Division, scoring 64 points to trail Edison (50) and Huron (57). Clyde (92) was fourth,

followed by Perkins (146), Vermilion (149), Port Clinton (157) and Margaretta (181).

Wagner (19:38.61) finished second and Sievert, (19:44.63) was third. Also for Oak Harbor junior Alyssa Fuller (21:35.39) finished in 16th, sophomore Anna Zeitzheim (21:56.4) was 21st and senior Karissa Garza (21:58.27) was 22nd.

In the D-III boys district meet at Owens, the Eastwood boys were runner-up, scoring 91 points to trail only Ottawa Hills (34).

The Eagles were led by senior Josh Bierley (18:01.94), who finished sixth and senior Avery Geisbuhler (18:07.86), who was tenth.

In the D-III girls meet, Genoa finished second, scoring 65 points to trail only Liberty-Benton (34). For the Comets, freshman Marainna Heninger was 13th (21:54.82) and junior Jocelynn Dunbar (22:07.85) was 14th.

At the D-III girls district hosted by Galion High School at Amanns Reservoir, Woodmore freshman Faith Morris finished fifth in 20:93.35. As a team, the Wildcats were eighth.

Woodmore, Lake picked to finish near top of NBC

By Yaneek Smith and J. Patrick Eaken sports@presspublications.com After a few down years in girls’ basketball, Woodmore is expected to rebound and compete for a league title in the Northern Buckeye Conference this season.

In addition, Lake could take the next step rising to the top of the conference.

That’s according to the preseason rankings from the NBC coaches, who picked the Wildcats and Flyers to finish second and third, respectively, in the conference.

Elmwood, which won the league in 2013 and 2014 before suffering two straight losing seasons, returns a number of key players, including a few who were injured last year. They are the preseason favorite.

The Royals, with five first place votes, edged Woodmore, with two first place votes, as the Royals accumulated 59 points to the Wildcats’ 57. Lake had 50 points, followed by Otsego (37), who was a district finalist last season and the league champion two years ago. Eastwood was fifth with 29 points, followed by reigning league champion Genoa (26), Rossford (15) and

Metro Suburban Maumee Bay

Fostoria (14).

Woodmore, under ninth-year coach Kyle Clair, returns eight letter winners, including six seniors, who will be playing under their new defensive system for the second season. Despite having a number of key players returning like Lily Rothert, Kate Barbee, Liz Koenig and Carly Rothert, the Wildcats will have to replace one of its top players in 5-foot-9 post Jordan Grzegorczyk.

“Our biggest thing was offensive efficiency and improvement around the basket and we’ll see if we get any better at that,” Clair said.

The Flyers looked good for the last few seasons and could be in line to take the next step. It will be the second season under Joe Nowak, and while the team did lose five seniors accounting for 10 points per game, leading scorer Bekah Swartz, who broke the school’s 3-point record, returns.

Eastwood, meanwhile, is now on its fifth coach since Jim Grayck left in 2007.

Nick Schmeltz, now in his second year leading the program, will work to replace the production lost by the graduation of

Mackenzie Albright and Alexa Schmeltz.

“They (returnees) were not huge contributors in the scoring category, but they did the little things well for us last year,” Schmeltz said. “If they adapt to the varsity game, we might be alright.”

The young Eagles return just two starters and plan on playing three freshmen and a sophomore this year.

Genoa won its first NBC title last season after coming close the year before, but graduated six players, including four starters. On top of that, Mike DeStazio is expecting to play several freshmen for a team that will have plenty of new faces.

The Comets lost four starters — Haley Pickard, Erica Harder, Carly Gose and Haley Gerke — who averaged a combined 44 points-per-game. Emily Edwards, the lone returning starter, is battling a knee injury and is a big question mark coming into the season.

Of the 17 players in the program, nine are freshman and three are sophomores. Pickard has moved onto the next level and is playing for Owens Community College this year. Coach Mike DeStazio says he expects three freshmen to be play-

ing varsity full time.

Elmwood lost two seniors, but Coach Doug Reynolds says he is “excited” about this year’s team, saying he has seven players that he calls “a good group” returning who have all started a varsity game at one time or another. He expects them to be more mature and bring a more physical presence this year. He says he has a total of “eight strong players and we’ll see who else comes in.”

Otsego graduated eight seniors, but coaches there say they have a talented group of freshmen coming in.

Rossford graduated four seniors, accounting for 42 percent of point production, but there will be two returning seniors this year. Coaches say they have the best freshmen class they have seen in a while.

Fostoria has a new coach and new system with maybe one or two seniors expected to join the team along with four juniors.

In addition this year, the NBC plans to run an fifth and sixth grade girls basketball program again this year. To get your daughter involved, contact the coaching staff at your school.

Kimberly Vaculik, Planning, Zoning & Economic Development Coordinator City of Northwood Hi, I'm Emma! I've been at Maumee Valley Save-A-Pet for seven long years. I've watched as loving family after loving family has come in....and chosen another cat. I'm a tabby and maybe people think I'm too plain because, even as a kitten, no one picked me. And if being a Plain Jane isn't bad enough, I lost a lot of my hair for a while; I guess people wanted a more beautiful cat.

(The vet thinks it might have been from fleas or allergies that could be seasonal, environmental or food related; Maumee Valley Save-APet will see it through with my adopter. I'm now on a monthly flea preventative and have had some depo injections and it's working!) I enjoy a cage free shelter and outdoor cattery, but I love people and dream of a home! I really like other cats too and would love to live with another kitty(s), but I don't want to sound greedy. Stop by Maumee Valley Save-A-Pet at 5250 Hill Avenue (at Reynolds) Wednes-day through Saturday from 12 - 5 pm and let's go home in time for Halloween; I've got my costume on and my bags packed! I've been
