Helping Lake Erie
New basin will reduce overflows By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Northwestern Water and Sewer District hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony last week to celebrate the completion of a $5.8 million wastewater equalization basin or tank located between Williston and Curtice roads in Northwood. District and local officials were at the ribbon cutting ceremony last Tuesday. The new basin controls the amount of rainwater entering the wastewater treatment system in Oregon, protecting Lake Erie by reducing sewer overflows. “It’s one of the largest wastewater storage facilities in Wood County,” Tom Stalter, manager of engineering at the District, told The Press last week. “A lot of thought went into it, so we’re pretty happy with it.” The basin will catch and hold the excess flow of sanitary sewage and storm water temporarily before it is released for

Voters in Lake Township, including the villages of Walbridge and Millbury, will decide a 1-mill, continuing levy on the November ballot that will, if passed, be used to fund 24/7 emergency medical service. The millage is projected to generate about $230,204 annually and township officials are stressing that the funding is needed to chart a new course for the service because LifeStar, the current provider, is ending its agreement with the township. “It’s not a question if it’s going to happen. It’s a given. LifeStar has made the decision and we have to go with it,” Fire Chief Bruce Moritz said, adding LifeStar has also ended service contracts with other townships. “We want to continue a good service and make it into a better service.” Under the current agreement, the township provides an emergency vehicle and equipment for LifeStar paramedics who are housed at the township’s Cummings Road administration building while on duty. Two paramedics are on duty per shift. A 0.8-mill levy has been used to help fund the current service. Chief Moritz said the township’s own fire and EMS departments are staffed by volunteers who’ve been responding to a steadily increasing call volume. In 2016, the departments made 1,185 runs – about 77 percent of which were for emergency medical service. “It’s too big to put this all on the shoulders of the volunteers,” he said. “We’ll have to hire paramedics.” Mark Hummer, the township’s police chief and administrator, said the township’s intent is to be “up and running” under the new format prior to the expiration of the LifeStar contract next April if the levy is approved. “This is not something the fire chief and trustees wanted to do,” Hummer said

A lot of it will depend on how saturated the ground is and how big the rainfall event is.” The project was funded by the Ohio

Environmental Protection Agency. Northwood has a contract with the District for water and sewer services from Toledo and Oregon. Oregon has an agreement with the EPA to make improvements to its system, which affects the District. EPA mandate The basin was built in response to an EPA mandate that restricts the amount of rainwater that gets treated in Oregon to five million gallons per day. It is not a problem during dry weather, but under wet weather conditions, it can exceed the limit. The District reviewed the flow over an 18-month period, and determined it had exceeded five million gallons per day 60 times. The District’s contract with Oregon, which was renewed in 2014, mandated the implementation of a new control structure Continued on page 5

Senator seeks input for the next farm bill Senator Sherrod Brown is touring agricultural areas of Ohio to listen to farmer’s concerns as the next federal farm bill is being written. A member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Brown hosted a roundtable discussion Monday at the farm of Bill Myers in Oregon. “As we start work on the next farm bill, I want to hear directly from Ohio farmers,� said Brown. “That’s why I’m holding roundtables like this one around the state over the coming year, with farmers and rural community leaders, just like we did before the last farm bill. These roundtables produced great ideas in the past and are critical to
making sure that Ohio agriculture has a seat at the table.� Representatives from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, along with farmers and advocates from agricultural, conservation and sportsmen organizations including Ducks Unlimited, Pheasants Forever, The Nature Conservancy, Ohio Corn and Wheat Growers Association, Ohio Pork Producers, Lucas County Farm Bureau, Ohio Farm Bureau and Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association also attended. In 2014, Brown was part of the Senate Farm Bill Conference Committee that negotiated a five-year farm bill.

Businessman preparing care packages By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com Imagine being deployed on the other side of the world away from your family and friends. That’s the reality facing local residents who are currently serving in the armed forces and are stationed in the Middle East. A member of that group is Jerry Britt, the co-owner of Oak Harbor’s XakBee Electronics, who is currently stationed in Kuwait with the Ohio National Guard 371st Sustainment Brigade, which is based in Springfield, Ohio. Britt’s business partner, Paul Stricker, an Oak Harbor resident, is sending out a care package to Britt and his unit and is seeking donations from the community. “It’s one of those things for the troops to let them know we are thinking about them. The biggest thing is to let them know that we appreciate what they’re doing,” said Stricker. “As much as veterans and military personnel get ridiculed and knocked down by some people, I think it’s important to let them know that what they do is appreciated.” Stricker is doing this not just for Britt but also for his comrades. “I don’t focus this care package so much on Jerry as I do the entire unit. I know that in talking to Jerry, there are some people that haven’t really gotten anything from home. These people are sometimes the ones who need more encouragement just to let them know we are thinking about them and that them being over there isn’t going unnoticed,” said Stricker, who is hoping to send out this care package by Thursday or Friday. “If I were away from my family for a year and I didn’t get much from home, that would probably be hard for me. “I am very proud to know a number of these people. My grandfather served in the military, and for me, it would be very hard, and I’m glad that people step up and perform that service because I think a lot of people would have a hard time doing it. I really don’t think that a lot of them get the show of

Save The Children Auditor appointed Matthew Oestreich has been appointed Auditor of Wood County by the Wood County Republican Central Committee The unexpired term runs through March 10, 2019. Oestreich had been serving as acting auditor upon the retirement of Michael Sibbersen. “At some point in the last 17 years, Mike Sibbersen saw in me the qualities of leadership, honesty, integrity, and positivity. He saw that I was willing to learn and work hard. He saw that I was willing to look at things in a different light and find new ways to innovate. Mike has served as a mentor and a role model to me, and I will forever be indebted to him for his years of guidance and leadership.”

‘Country bumpkin’, Floyd head east Al Thompson left Northwest Ohio on June 4 to resume his bicycle ride around the perimeter of the United States in an effort to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity and Save the Children. Since then, he has returned home but is announcing that he is heading back out, for an event in New York. Here is an excerpt from his blog, which you can follow by going to presspublications.com and clicking on the icon on the upper right corner. Greetings All! It appears as though Floyd and I are heading east again. Well…OK…Floyd will be hitching a ride on the back of my vehicle, and he’s fine with that. (Some have grown worried that I’m ascribing human qualities to my bicycle.) I had contacted Save The Children headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, and offered to do the program about my U.S. Perimeter Ride for their staff. My visit there two years ago at this time was one of the highlights of the first part of my journey, so I thought they might enjoy seeing the program. Courtney Nields, my contact person and go-to lady at Save The Children, then asked me if I could move up the date of my program a bit so that I could attend a Save The Children benefit gala in New York City as their guest, which I am planning to do. It sounds like a grand evening that will be held at the American Museum of Natural History and it will be hosted by NBC Today Show anchor (Saturday edition) Craig Melvin; Jill Biden and Jennifer Garner are honorary chairs for the benefit. Thus… country bumpkin Al will be heading eastward toward Connecticut and The Big Apple at the beginning of next week. I’m attaching below the photo that I consider to be the final photo of my U.S. Perimeter Ride. You may recall from my Concluding Update back in August that on the day that I arrived home (8/14) a few folks gathered at Buffalo Wild Wings to raise a glass or two to toast the completion of my ride. One of those folks was good friend and fraternity brother Doug Palmer.

Thoughts, prayers, and good vibrations go out to Doug, his wife Marilyn, and sisters Sandy and Karla.

Township EMS levy
Media challenge for students organized
of the levy request. Chief Moritz last week held public forums to answer questions about the levy and also plans to attend the Oct. 18 meeting of Walbridge Village Council to discuss it. He said he’s been trying to dispel unfounded rumors about the service, including one he heard from a resident who claimed Walbridge had separately paid $90,000 toward the service. “Millbury and Walbridge pay nothing other than what property owners pay through the 0.8-mill levy,â€? Moritz said. Richard Welling, a trustee, said LifeStar hasn’t been able to fully recover its personnel expenses solely through the contract with the township and has relied on fees to make up the difference. LifeStar has also ended its contracts with the township and other entities for emergency dispatching service, he said. Ballot issues Other local jurisdictions in Wood County also have issues on the ballot: • Freedom Township is seeking renewal of a 3-mill, 3-year levy for fire and ambulance services. • Troy Township is seeking renewal of a 1-mill, 3-year levy for police service. • Webster Township is seeking renewal and increase of a 3.4-mill, 3-year levy for the EMS and fire departments. • Pemberville is seeking an additional 2-mill, 3-year levy for its police department. • In precinct 420, Denny’s Time Out Tavern, Woodville Rd., Lake Township, is seeking Sunday sales of alcohol between 11 a.m. and midnight. • The Wood County Job and Family Services Department is seeking renewal of a 1.3-mill, 10-year levy.
Ohio Sea Grant and the NOAA Marine Debris Program’s Great Lakes office invite students in grades 9-12 from the Lake Erie region of Ohio to participate in the 2018 Ohio Marine Debris Challenge “Communicating for a Clean Future.� Student groups will create public service announcement videos that focus on inspiring others to address marine debris. The deadline for submission is March 16, 2018. Marine debris is one of the most widespread pollution problems facing the world’s oceans and waterways, including the Great Lakes. Debris can consist of a number of trash items, from cigarette butts and plastic bottles to fishing nets and plastic bags. When they get into the ecosystem, these items become unsightly beach litter and can harm or even kill wildlife. However, marine debris is also a problem where individual citizens, including students and adults, can play a meaningful part in creating solutions. “The Ohio Marine Debris Challenge helps high school students better understand marine debris science and the Great Lakes,� said Sue Bixler, Stone Lab education and outreach specialist and one of the judges for the video competition. “Developing this PSA helps them focus on inspiring others to acknowledge marine de-
bris and become part of the solution, and hopefully brings the lessons students learn home to their families and friends as well.� The Marine Debris Program provides lessons on marine debris that teachers can use to get their students up to speed on the issue and to provide background information that can be included in the PSA. Student teams must complete at least one lesson as part of the contest. All lessons meet Next Generation Science Standards and Ohio Revised Science Education Standards.
Three winning teams will be recognized at Cedar Point Amusement Park’s Physics, Math, and Science Week in May 2018, and receive a single day entry to the park. The first place winners will also receive a one-day field trip to Stone Lab, The Ohio State University’s island campus on Lake Erie, including ferry transportation. Second place winners will receive a tour of an educational center in their area, and third place winners will receive gift bags with products from sponsoring organizations. The contest was created in 2016 in partnership with Ohio Congressional District 9 Representative Marcy Kaptur, and has since expanded to include districts along the entire Ohio Lake Erie coastline. For more information and contest guidelines, visit go.osu.edu/marinedebrisPSA. Located on the 6.5-acre Gibraltar Island in Put-in-Bay harbor, Stone Laboratory is Ohio State’s Island Campus on Lake Erie and the research, education, and outreach facility of the Ohio Sea Grant College Program.

ect. The city had preferred that a tank be built underground so it wouldn’t be noticeable to the public, but cost estimates were higher and the underground alternative was abandoned. In addition, some residents from surrounding neighborhoods had expressed concerns about the tank, including whether it would emit an odor and cause a drop in property values. District officials said the tank has a system to catch odors and send them back into the basin. They also said the basin would help property values because it will allevi-
ate flooding problems many residents have. After the Plan Commission denied the preliminary site plan, the city made some recommendations to the District to make the tank more acceptable to residents. The District made the building more low profile so that visually it would not have as much of an impact. It was set five feet deeper into the ground than what had originally been planned. And the District agreed to mound up the area by five to six feet and plant trees at the top. “We put quite a bit of money into the landscaping,� said Stalter.

Opioid community forum in Northwood on Oct. 26 By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com An opioid epidemic community forum is planned for Thursday, Oct. 26 in the auditorium of the Northwood Schools Arts, Athletics and Administration Building (former high school), 500 Lemoyne Rd. The forum consists of a panel discussion that includes emergency care teams from Bay Park and Flower hospitals, a speaker from Team Recovery, which is in the process of opening up seven recovery centers, Oregon EMS first responders, and family members who have lost loved ones to opioid addiction, and a detective from Lake Township. Doors open at 6 p.m., with the panel discussion starting at 6:30 p.m. and ends at 8 p.m. “It’s something that our board has talked about for three years,” said Brett Tscherne, director of Eggleston Meinert & Pavley Funeral Home who is on the board of the Eastern Maumee Bay Chamber of Commerce, which is organizing the event. “It’s something that we wanted to speak out about and put something together for the
community because it’s such a crisis and epidemic. We kicked around the idea, and now it’s coming to fruition.” Fliers and literature will be available to the public at the forum. Family loss Tscherne said he has experienced loss in his family to opioid addiction. “Unfortunately, on July 17, my cousin overdosed on heroin,” he said. “I’ve been on the board for three years, throwing this idea around and I never thought in a million years I would be on the other end of this. We were oblivious. We had no idea. It’s a horrible, horrible thing. We didn’t know he had an issue. This forum will let everyone know that there is an issue, and hopefully lead them to look for signs. Now is the time to get the information out there so people can reach out if they need it. There are a lot of families that see the signs, know their kids are doing it and are dealing with it.” He estimates up to 90 percent of young people who end up at the funeral home accidentally overdosed on opioids. And the opioid fentanyl, he said, “is
what we’re seeing.” “It’s what’s killing our kids.” He’s also seeing professionals, such as engineers, lose everything to opioid addiction. “It hits all walks of life,” he said. “It does not discriminate.” On the rise Ohio’s opioid epidemic continued to rise last year, according to a report released by the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) in August. The report shows a sharp rise in overdose deaths involving fentanyl, the emergence of more deadly fentanyl-related drugs like carfentanil, and indications that cocaine is now being used with fentanyl and other opiates. Overdose deaths increased from 3,050 in 2015 to 4,050 last year, and fentanyl and related drugs were involved in 58.2 percent of them. By comparison, fentanyl was involved in 37.9 percent of overdose deaths in 2015, 19.9 percent in 2014, 4 percent in 2013 and 3.9 percent in 2012. Illegally produced fentanyl can be hundreds of times stronger than heroin,
and carfentanil and other related drugs can be even stronger, according to the report. With the emergence of carfentanil in 2016, the fentanyl-related drug was involved in 340 overdose deaths, most of them during the second half of the year. The number of cocaine-related overdose deaths increased from 685 in 2015 to 1,109 in 2016 – a 61.9 percent increase. Of cocaine-related overdose deaths, 80.2 percent also involved an opiate, and 55.8 percent involved fentanyl and related opiates in particular. The report also includes some promising news – the fewest prescription opioid overdose deaths since 2009. “The continued increase in opioidrelated deaths reaffirms that we still have much work to do, but Ohio is seeing important progress in reducing the number of prescription opioids available for abuse and prescription-related overdose deaths,” said Dr. Mark Hurst, medical director of the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and interim medical director of ODH. “This progress is significant because prescription opioid abuse is frequently a gateway to heroin and fentanyl use later on.”
Carroll Twp.
Audit flags overpayments By Press Staff Writer A state audit indicates some current and former officials of Carroll Township owe the township a combined $28,210 due to their pay being miscalculated in 2014 and 2015. The audit found that Jessica Brough, a former fiscal officer, overstated the township’s estimated budget by more than $668,000 during 2014, which triggered overpayments to herself and three trustees. Ohio law lists the authorized pay rates for trustees and fiscal officers based on a township’s annual projected budget – the total resources available for spending. Auditors determined the township’s actual budget for the year totaled $5.3 million but Brough reported a projected amount of $6 million to the Ottawa County Budget Commission for certification. She calculated pay amounts for herself and the trustees based on the overstated budget, using the pay level for a $6-10 million budget rather than the correct pay level for a $3.5 - 6 million budget. The miscalculations resulted in Brough receiving an overpayment of $3,134 and each of the three trustees being overpaid by $3,652 in 2014. In 2015, she didn’t certify the township’s projected budget with the budget commission, resulting in a recorded budget
of $0. Auditors calculated the township’s budget for the year and determined the four officials received the same overpayments as they did in 2014. Findings for recovery were issued: • Jessica Brough - $6,268 • Trustee Rodney Biggert - $7,304 • Trustee Kenneth Gyde - $7,304 • Former trustee Donald St. Clair $7,304 According to the auditor’s office, Brough is responsible for the amounts owed by the trustees because she authorized the excess payments. In a separate finding, auditors determined she failed to post updates to the Uniform Accounting Network, the auditor’s software system for payroll and financial management programs of local governments, in a timely manner. In 2014 and 2015, she delayed posting bi-weekly payroll disbursements to the system by up to 11 months. The township also was cited for poor internal controls over public records after hourly employee timesheets from 2014, minutes from six meetings held in 2014 and a permanent appropriations resolution from 2015 could not be located. The audit notes appropriate procedures to correct several of the deficiencies were implemented by the fiscal officer Tina Gyde when she took office in April 2016.

Pictured from left to right are committee officers who were involved with the purchase of the new vehicle; Chief Tom Parasiliti, Assistant Chief Mike Csehi, Wayne Cousino, and James Wolfe. The rescue vehicle was purchased through fire levies. The fire department also bought a John Deere Gator ATV that will include a pump for fighting grass fires and will have the ability go into wooded areas that are too small for fire trucks. The ATV was purchased through Jerusalem Firefighters Association fundraisers which included the annual feather party. (Press photo by Ken Grosjean)

Fleitz quits his “day job,” pursues his dream By Katie Siebenaller Press Staff Writer katiesieb@presspublications.com
Paul and Cheryl Fleitz, shown with their grandchildren, are enjoying full-time farming. Paul retired from his “day job” in computer programming this past summer. (Submitted photo) “We just want people to come out and have a good time and buy some pumpkins,” Fleitz says of the farm’s expansions. In addition, Fleitz Pumpkin Farm offers field trips for school groups, opening up the farm to children of pre-school and elementary school age. During these outings, Cheryl Fleitz teaches students about the farm. Students are also treated to a hayride and their own Fleitz pumpkin. Scouts and other organizations are welcome to plan their own trips to the farm too. Out of all of his successes and milestones with his farm, there is one that Paul Fleitz is most excited about – after 42 years, he retired from computer programming this past summer. At the age of 62, after much
“
I really like getting up and working for myself instead of having to get up and go to a job.
“
Paul Fleitz and his family are celebrating 40 years of farming and 28 years of growing pumpkins, and it is with growing patience that they have reached these great milestones. Fleitz always knew he wanted to farm. Both sets of his grandparents farmed, so naturally the lifestyle and occupation appealed to him. However, in college, Fleitz decided to pursue computer programming. He began working as a programmer in 1978. “I thought ‘maybe it wouldn’t be a bad occupation,’” he said. But it did not take long for him to discover his passion did not lie with computer programming. “From day one I was thinking, ‘What else could I do different?’” Fleitz learned fast that he had no interest in sitting at a desk all day. He knew many of his co-workers had held their jobs at their desks for years. Close to 30, in fact. That was the number he needed to reach in order to retire from computer programming, and he wasn’t sure if he could do it. “He told my mom there was no way he could possibly do that every day for the next 30 years. He wanted to be a farmer.” Fleitz’s oldest daughter, Trisha Truman, recounts. In 1980, two years after starting his desk job, Fleitz began farming. “He worked evenings and weekends growing his farm, but it was never quite enough to sustain a family,” Truman said. As a result, Fleitz had to stick with programming during the work week to support his family, leaving upkeep of the farm to his supportive wife, Cheryl. “It’s hard to support yourself just farming,” he added. Fleitz started small, growing an orchard and produce such as strawberries, tomatoes and sweet corn. “I always had in mind I wanted to have a roadside market,” Fleitz stated. “We had a box out there for people to leave their money – you know, the honor system.” The farm hit its stride when Fleitz began selling pumpkins. They kept growing them, and they kept selling. Next thing the family knew, they were being asked if they sold gourds and other fall goods. The following year, gourds were available for purchase. Quickly, the focus of the farm shifted to pumpkins and other fall items, like gourds and apples. “We grow about anything anyone would want for fall,” Fleitz said. The farm has since expanded, adding a craft shop that sells decorations made from dried, painted gourds, a snack shack, corn maze and hay rides. A larger pole barn was built eight years ago to host children’s activities, including a sandbox, straw maze and racetrack for little ones to enjoy. Many activities are free for visitors, and a few have a small $1-$2 admission fee.
hard work and long days at a desk, Fleitz is finally doing what he loves full time – farming.
“I really like getting up and working for myself instead of having to get up and go to a job,” Fleitz said, the joy clear in his voice. Since its inception, Fleitz’s farm has been a family effort, and it continues to be so. In addition to Paul and Cheryl’s efforts, the couple is joined by their four children, their spouses and 10 grandchildren to keep the farm going strong. “They all live within a five-mile radius, so everyone is over here all the time,” Fleitz said. Fleitz Pumpkin Farm is located at 7133 Seaman Rd. in Oregon. For directions and more information, visit their website, www. fleitzpumpkinfarm.com.
Black Swamp Bird celebrates 25th Black Swamp Bird Observatory (BSBO) recently hosted a special weekend event to celebrate its 25th anniversary. The celebration featured many stories of how BSBO has touched the lives of its volunteers, members and visitors., In the past 25 years, BSBO has contributed a wealth of original data on migratory birds in Northwest Ohio. BSBO’s education programs have reached thousands of students throughout the region as well as neighboring states. The organization’s “Biggest Week in
American Birding” festival was also highlighted and applauded. Timed to coincide with the peak of songbird migration through the area, the event brings more than 90,000 birdwatchers to Northwest Ohio, resulting in an annual economic impact of more than 40 million dollars. After reflecting on all the achievements of BSBO’s past 25 years, BSBO Executive Director Kimberly Kaufman presented the vision for a sustainable future. The organization’s staff and board recently participated in an intensive strategic planning initia-
tive. Kaufman also announced BSBO’s newly established endowment fund through Toledo Community Foundation, and the “BSBO Legacy Society,” a program for planned giving. The event also raised more than $15,000 to support BSBO’s mission to inspire appreciation, enjoyment and conservation of wild birds and their habitats through research and education.

Apples in any form really capture and highlight the flavor of fall. ple-jacks can be sprayed with a clear acrylic finish when they are dry if you want. Use felt or green-colored paper to cut foliage, and attach it to the apple stem – or use silk foliage leaves. Your finished apple-jacks can be arranged in a bowl to be placed anywhere that you want a delightful Halloween touch, or placed in a row on windowsills, mantels, etc. Outside, you can group them on a hay bale, in a planter or basket. In a bowl or container, you can place a candle in the middle of the grouping and light it at night. These are fun and easy to make and an adorable addition to your Halloween decorating. October garden tip: Remove dead annuals and clean up veggie beds. Work up the soil and add amendments such as compost, etc. Harvest all the veggies and plant bulbs for spring. If you have garden questions or tips for other gardeners, email dpl3@accesstoledo. com.

October’s bright, blue skies and upand-down weather are back again. The tree’s altering colors and the muted rust and brown on the fields remind us that winter is not far away. Wild asters in purple and white and brilliant goldenrod color our roadsides now, while the wild geese gather in ponds and fields, engaging in their customary fall rituals. Though weather temperatures may drop or climb, fall is here as we move toward the end on another year. Along with its colorful leaves and countryside, October is also a month of some outstanding meteor showers. Shooting stars in the clear skies of October can be some dramatic shows and five of the 12 yearly major meteor showers over the U.S. are visible this month, including the Orinoid show, which can be seen Oct. 2022 (give or take a day), and can produce up to 15 meteors per hour. Apples galore are in abundant supply in October. Apple pie, apple crisp, apple cake, apple fritters – you name it. Apples in any form really capture and highlight the flavor of fall. The October apple harvest at its peak produces some of the freshest, crispest, and best-flavored apples available at this time of year. These juicy fruits are wonderful in any form or just fresh off the tree. Along with providing us with autumn edible treats, apples can be used for decorating. With Halloween not far away, it can be fun to create some apple-based décor. How about making some apple-jacks? To create these, choose blemish-free, firm apples. Yellow, golden or lighter red fruits work well to make these mini jack-o-lanterns. Wash and dry the apples and using acrylic paints, paint stripes at one-inch intervals around the apple from the stem to the bottom. This will mimic the segmented appearance of a pumpkin. When the stripes are dry, paint a jack-o-lantern face on the apple. Each apple can be painted with a different type jack-o-lantern face. Your ap-

How well do you handle workplace disagreements? The
From the American Counseling Association While we all have multiple relationships through our family and friends, for most of us, the relationships in which we spend the most waking hours are our work relationships. Disagreements in any relationship can be challenging, but with friends and family, we usually find ways to work out our issues. A disagreement on the job, however, especially with someone who has more authority, can be a very difficult and awkward experience. Even if we feel strongly about an idea, decision or a project, we often feel we have little choice but to follow the boss’s wishes. When this occurs, we can feel stressed and anxious, and often wish we had handled the situation differently. If a work disagreement or bad decision occurs because of incomplete or incorrect information, it can usually be fixed by logically and coolly presenting the corrected or updated facts. But if workplace disagreements are coming from the type of person your boss is and his business style, that’s not something you’re going to change. Instead, the goal is to use your energy in deciding how you’ll manage the situation so that in the end you can feel good about how you handled things. Start by deciding whether to deal with the problem now or later. Neither is always the best way. Bringing up the problem immediately might make you seem argumentative, but waiting to voice your objections might lead to even bigger problems. You also want to decide if discussing the problem directly with your boss is the best approach. A calm discussion, handled right, might be very effective. But sometimes talking about the issue with family or friends might help you keep the problem in perspective. An important step is simply to as-
Counseling Corner sess the situation, rather than just reacting quickly. How important is the problem, re-
ally? If it is important, consider possible alternative courses of action and evaluate what outcomes each might bring. After selecting the best alternative, implement it. You should now be able to present a carefully considered discussion of the problem and a possible solution, rather than a heated response to the issue. Then evaluate the outcome. Yes, the boss will still be the same person, but what
you want to consider is whether your approach helped fix the problem, and most importantly, did it make you feel good about how you handled the disagreement? “Counseling Corner” is provided by the American Counseling Association.

Everyone’s a winner in local artist’s contest By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com When artist David “Doc” Overholt decided to sponsor a contest on his Facebook page, the plan was to offer one of his paintings to one lucky winner. Overholt, of “Runningdog Artworks,” asked followers to post their favorite photo. From the submissions, he’d choose a winner and create a painting from the photo. It was something the Walbridge artist did last year – something he had fun with. Sixteen people posted photos, ranging from a new baby, a beloved mother, a cherished pet and an idyllic farm scene. “One was a picture of my great-niece, which I was going to for Christmas,” he said. “I was only going to pick one – but the trouble was, I liked them all,” he said. “So I decided...everybody gets a painting.” In the ensuing weeks, Overholt created 16 paintings. He will present the 8 x 10 canvases to the winners at the Northwood Fall Festival, which will be held Saturday, Oct. 14 in Central Park. “There’s just so much bad news in the world today,” he said. “This was my way of doing something nice…of spreading a little happiness.” Last year, Overholt donated two original paintings to the Lake Township Fire Department, thanking them for their service on Jan. 29, 2014, when he suffered a heart attack. He is also working on paintings to donate to a local church and a VFW post. To learn more about Overholt’s paintings or to contact him, visit Runningdog Artworks on Facebook. “I just want to put a smile on people’s faces,” he said.

Anne with her brothers and sisters L-R: Kathy Pollauf, Mary Eble, Joe Imre, Anne Brossia, Steve Imre, John Imre, Suzi Brewer
I have had people ask me, “Why Anne Brossia for Oregon Municipal Judge?”. Let me tell you….Those who know her know she loves the law, is honest and holds a great deal of integrity. She’s fair, but most importantly she follows the letter of the law, so much so that she is a member of the Grievance Investigation Committee for the Toledo Bar Association. She’s a trial attorney so of course she knows her way around the courtroom. But…Her experience takes her beyond that of an average attorney. Before law-school she was a Critical Care Nurse at MCO, with critical judgements made in a second’s notice. Those judgement calls were life and death decisions she made for actual human beings, not by reading a file. How does this connect to community needs? Drug overdoses…Drunk driving accidents….Gun shots and domestic violence….She has seen it all from the other side of the law by experiencing the outcome when bad things happen. Her experiences and judgements have saved lives and comforted those who have lost, spanning over 37 years. Does she claim a party or seek out endorsements? NO! The courtroom is no place for politics. She will serve everyone that enters that courtroom to the letter of the law. With her as Judge, Oregon will be safer. I believe that whole heartedly. Some say most candidates get elected because of name recognition. This November I am voting for the most experienced person for the job. The daughter of Gabriel F. and Mary Clare (Stoepler) Imre has certainly made a name for herself. I would vote for her if she wasn’t my sister. If you are on Facebook, check out her page! November 7th Vote for Anne Brossia, Oregon Municipal Court Judge!! This is paid for by Kathleen Pollauf, private citizen and business owner.

The Toledo Zoo is home to three female cougar cubs, relocated from the state of Washington after the loss of their mothers. (Photo courtesy of the Toledo Zoo)
Toledo Zoo now home to three orphaned cougar cubs The Toledo Zoo welcomed three female cougar cubs orphaned by human-wildlife conflict. The three cougar cubs, also known as pumas or mountain lions, came to reside at the Toledo Zoo after the state of Washington’s Department of Fish and Wildlife reached out to the Association of Zoos and Aquariums to find the cats new homes following the loss of their mothers. The oldest cub is estimated to be 10-12 weeks old, weighs about 10 pounds and is from southeast Washington. The younger
two cubs are approximately 3 weeks old, weigh about three-and-a-half pounds each and are from northeast Washington. The younger cubs were part of a litter of four, with the other two cubs now residing at a zoo in New Jersey. Cougars (Puma concolor) are found throughout North and South America and while they are not endangered, some populations are severely threatened. Additionally, the cougar has been extirpated from Ohio. “The Toledo Zoo is proud to provide a home to these orphaned cougar cubs. As a

part of our own mission and that of AZA, we always try to meet the needs of wildlife officials in placing orphaned native species. These cubs will not only provide a tangible connection to human-wildlife conflict, but also give Zoo guests the privilege of watching an elusive and often-villainized feline species grow and develop,” said Jeff Sailer, Toledo Zoo’s executive director. The younger cubs can be viewed by the public during veterinarian-supervised bottle feedings at 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. each day, near the indoor viewing of elephants

Shepherdstown a cool place to visit, especially in autumn Shepherdstown, West Virginia, just may be the most haunted town in America. Even if it’s not, the place is just plain cool to visit, especially in the fall when it lights up with the reds and yellows of the season and there’s a haunting chill in the air. “Shepherdstown is an amazing place,” says Annette Gavin, CEO of Jefferson County Convention and Visitors Bureau. Of course, you’d expect her to say that, it’s her job. Still, listen to her – she happens to be right. “It’s cool, funky. A university town.” Shepherdstown has been around a long time – longer than any other town in West Virginia. In the years since its founding in 1762, Shepherdstown has aged with grace on the scenic banks of the Potomac River, its 2,000 residents passionately protecting its old-town hometown feel. Look for it in the naturally beautiful extreme northeast corner of West Virginia in an area that is never more than a short drive from Maryland and Virginia, and just a comfortable Sunday drive from Washington, D.C. The town’s historic district has a wonderful colonial feeling, dominated by Federal-style brick houses built in the late 1700s still sporting with the flourishes of the time – metal rails and fences, stately trees, time-worn steps and porches. There’s a lot of life in Shepherdstown. Visitors stroll German Street, pausing on benches in between sorties into shops that are colorful, fun, and full of gift ideas. In between, the shops are a mix of well-maintained private residences and an eclectic selection of very good eating establishments. Where there is life, there is also death, and, sadly, during the Civil War, Shepherdstown saw more than its share. Union and Confederate armies swept back and forth across this contested corner of West Virginia, colliding regularly in bloody encounters. None was bloodier than the Battle of Antietam, which was centered on farmlands just minutes across the Potomac River from Shepherdstown. Antietam has the horrifying distinction of being the bloodiest single-day battle in our nation’s history. Imagine a mind-boggling 3,700 dead and over 19,000 wounded in critical

those really leaves blowing across the sidewalk or the ghostly sounds of Civil War wounded shuffling to first aid? Is that shadowy figure ahead a friendly local or one of the apparitions reportedly seen with regularity? Take a break to ponder all that in today’s Sweet Shop in the heart of town. It was known as Moulder Hall in Civil War days, site of a Civil War hospital. Some people say that now it’s a focal point for paranormal activity. More than a few Sweet Shop patrons and staff have stories to tell of strange encounters and bumps in the night.

Saturday, October 28th In memory of my dearest friend, Patricia “Patty” Howe-Watson. I resided with Patty in her home from April 19, 2015 till her passing. I called her my “Little Sis”, and she would call me “Vampire”. We would say the same words at the same time, then we would stop and start laughing. We shared good and bad times we had been through, sometimes crying and laughing. Patty didn’t judge me, nor I her. She was, is and will always be “MY TRUE FRIEND”. A day will come when my tears will stop flowing for you. My heart will stop aching for you. My longing for you will cease forever. My memories of you will fade away. This day, will be the day, when I breathe my last breath.

Pigs, politics come together in small town mayor’s office Lance Westcamp may be one of the few small-town mayors in central Ohio that can be found driving his tractor down Main Street and he is certainly the only one with an office full of champion hog banners from around the country. “I was born and raised on a farm just south of Groveport. I graduated from Groveport high school in ’75. I farmed 4,500 acres with my dad and brother — most of it rented — in mid-70s and my dad always had a commercial sow herd of 50 to 75 sows. Even the farm we lived on was leased from the state. Most of that ground now is warehouses,” Westcamp said. “We were losing acres to development so my brother and I got outside jobs in late-80s and early 90s. I continued to farm until 2013, but by then most of everything was being custom farmed.” With the future of the Franklin County farm destined for development as Groveport (and nearby Columbus) continued to grow, Westcamp thought he would give politics a try. “I got an urge to get into politics and back in ’87 I ran for City Council. There were six people running for six council seats and I was the top vote getter at 222,” Westcamp said. “Then in 1994, I was president of the council and became mayor after the other mayor resigned.” In addition to his part-time mayoral duties, Westcamp has worked for the Ohio Department of Commerce since 1998. Like the landscape around him, Westcamp has adapted and integrated into urban Ohio, but he has never strayed far from his roots in farming. Westcamp’s unique agricultural background amid a sea of urban sprawl has allowed him some unique opportunities “I still raise a little bit of sweet corn so I still need a tractor and we’ll bring it to the community once in a while,” he said. Landrace hogs More notable than sweet corn, though, is Westcamp’s work with Landrace hogs. “I got my first set of Landrace hogs in 1972 and it was a breed I always enjoyed. They make great mothers and they are very content,” he said. “In 1972, the Franklin County Fair had a herd class with three females and a male. I drove the old pickup to New Knoxville and bought three Landrace gilts and a boar from Vernon Hite. Then I took them to the Franklin County Fair to show and we brought them home and that is how I got my Landrace start.” The American Landrace breed has a white, long body, 16 or 17 pairs of ribs and a less-pronounced arch of back than other breeds. They have a long and narrow head with large, heavy ears and they are noted for meatiness. They excel in litter size, birth and weaning weight, rebreeding interval, durability and longevity that are used

in crossbred animals in large commercial operations. “Landrace hogs are still out there doing what they are supposed to do for the big commercial guys,” Westcamp said. “But there are not as many Landrace show pigs as there used to be.” Westcamp sold all of his pigs around 1985, but got involved again when his children were in 4-H around the mid-90s. “My son was probably 16 and we started tinkering around with Landrace when I bought a gilt. Then we started showing at the State Fair around 2002. We got to the point where the State Fair was about to do away with the Landrace show because they didn’t have any numbers,” Westcamp said.

“They need so many in the class or they do away with the breed.” His proximity to Columbus allowed Westcamp to more easily address the challenge than some others would have been able to do. “I’m not saying they were all show quality, but we took 12 or so to the State Fair to keep the numbers up. We did that for four or five years and the numbers grew. My kids would take eight of the 12 and we had neighbor kids and we would put the pigs under their names. It was a lot of work, but we lived close by so we were able to do that,” Westcamp said. “The people at the State Fair appreciated what we were doing because they didn’t want to lose that breed from the show. The kids figured out that there are not that many Landrace hogs and your chances are better with Landrace if you want to take a barrow and they had a better chance to get money and a nice banner for winning.” Show pigs Today, along with his son Mitchell,

who is a teacher and football coach at Groveport, Westcamp has stayed very competitive with his Landrace hogs through Westcamp Family Showpigs. “We have 14 Landrace sows, which is unheard of for show pigs. That is probably the largest herd for Landrace show pigs in the country. We probably sell 25 to 35 club pigs a year,” he said. “My son and I really started working to better the breed in the late 90s. We had the champion Landrace boar at the Ohio State fair in 2004 and 2007 and we’ve had it the last six years in a row. We had the champion female in 2013. This year I had the champion boar at Ohio State Fair and then took a different boar to Indiana and had the champion boar at the Indiana State Fair.” The mayor of charming Groveport has built his livelihood around service to others off the farm, but the highlights of his career have been in the show ring. “We have done very well over the

Your life is your responsibility — no one else’s Fresh Country Dare to Air Taking responsbility Live provides numerous by Bryan Golden Pigs, politics years showing our Landrace at the Ohio State Fair and the Indiana State Fair and around the country,” Westcamp said. “One of the best highlights of my career was talking my son into taking five gilts to the Ohio State Fair this year. They were all in the same class and I had five grandkids showing them. The oldest one was eight. They didn’t win, but my wife, who is not a pig person, watched the kids out there all showing at the same time and said, ‘Now I know what you are talking about.’” And Westcamp hopes that his urban connections and location can help him share that experience with others. “I don’t have a college degree but growing up on a farm and being very active in FFA and 4-H, I brought everything I learned there to running meetings as the mayor and running the community. Growing up in a farming community helped me and that is why I keep trying to get kids involved in 4-H. I love to work with kids in town who want a fair project. “If a kid in Groveport or even Columbus wants a pig for a project but they don’t have a place to keep them, they can keep it at our place as long as they come out at least once a week to make sure everything is OK and feed and water and wash it. We want to educate the city kids and even rural kids who do not have livestock to be around the animals,” Westcamp said. “I am concerned with all of the lofts they are building in downtown Columbus and all of the places for the young people to move that those young kids will never see a field of corn or soybeans and won’t know where their food comes from. It all starts with agriculture.” Matt Reese is the editor for Ohio’s Country Journal. For more from Reese, visit ocj.com.

The victim approach causes inaction because nothing the victim does matters anyways.

by Matt Reese
Who is in control of your life? Are you in charge of what happens to you, or do you believe you are the victim of circumstances, or the actions of others? Some people take responsibility, whereas others are convinced they are victims. The way you view your life impacts your direction, results, and what you attract. Regardless of what you think, your life is your responsibility. You are not dependent on anyone else for what happens to you. There is always a cause and effect relationship. Your attitude and actions have results. Yet, there are those who do not, or will not, take responsibility for their situation. These people become angry, bitter, or resentful. They blame everything and everyone. Their luck is always bad and they are convinced they can never catch a break. The people who take responsibility for their lives never make excuses or blame other people or circumstances. They understand that their actions matter. They initiate change in their lives through their behavior. It’s your decision whether or not you take responsibility for your circumstances. People who don’t take responsibility exhibit a victim mentality. They have an endless list of excuses for why things happen to them. They blame their family, friends, bosses, coworkers, neighbors, parents, children, strangers, spouse, significant other, the economy, or bad luck. The victim approach causes inaction because nothing the victim does matters anyway. The resulting inaction causes problems to persist or worsen, reinforcing the victim’s erroneous belief that nothing is within their control. You are not a victim. Regardless of what you are facing, your response makes a difference. You decide what your next step will be. The objective is to take positive action in order to change, or improve your situation. Don’t allow past negative experiences to taint your attitude. A victim mentality never has any positive impact. Your past does not pollute the present unless you allow it to. Even if you now have a victim mentality, you can decide to change it.
Put an end to making excuses. Excuses are such a common approach to dealing with challenges that many people are not aware they do it. Excuses become an involuntary reaction. “I can’t,” “I don’t know how,” There’s nothing I can do,” “It will never work,” and “These things always happen to me,” are just a few of some commonly used excuses. Stop complaining. Once a problem has been identified, all of your focus must be devoted to taking corrective action. Constantly rehashing problems over and over contaminates your outlook, inhibiting your ability to discover solutions. Ignore naysayers and critics. Anyone who derides you has nothing positive to offer. You have no obligation to respond to criticism or justify your actions. Make positive decisions that work for you. You pick your path, along with the best strategy to keep you on track. When you look in the mirror, you see the person responsible for your life. Creating a list of reasons to succeed builds a positive mindset. Taking charge of where you are headed is extremely rewarding. If you are not used to taking responsi-
bility, converting is a simple process which requires replacing victim habits with a take charge approach. Monitor your thoughts. Each time you make an excuse or place blame, replace it with a positive step forward. Any type of action you will take to make some improvement, no matter how small, puts you in charge. Taking responsibility provides numerous benefits. You will attain more goals. You will be happier. Your productivity will increase. You will become more adept at solving problems. Your stress level will decrease and you will be in command of where you are headed. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www. BryanGolden.com or your bookstore.

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, 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 together. Whatever your life story is about, make sure that the way you live
Genoa
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

Oregon’s first farmers market considered success By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com
Feedback “The weather was perfect, which helped with the turnout,” Councilman James Seaman, the city’s liaison for the event, said at a council meeting on Monday. “I’m in the process of getting feedback from some of the venders and other people who were involved for next year,” said Seaman. “We’re going to tweak a few things, maybe get rid of the generators and get some electrical in there, add a few more vendors. It looks like something we can finally do on a regular basis. And I thank everyone who helped out, especially the administration and the mayor’s office. We got tremendous cooperation, and that’s the only way we could have pulled it off so well. We hope to have another great one next year.” Council President Dennis Walendzak said he was also pleased by the event. “It was very well received,” he said. “I have heard nothing but praise for that. Thank you for doing the yeoman’s work on that,” he said to Seaman. “You put a lot of work and effort behind that, and it was very successful.” Councilwoman Sandy Bihn agreed. “It was a nice event, and is something we will want to build upon, likewise in
“
We took a scientific approach to see what we could do to make it better for next year.
“
Over 300 people attended Oregon’s first farmers market on Monday, Oct. 2, in the parking lot of Pat Catan’s on Navarre Avenue. “We were pleasantly surprised that that many people came out,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. “It was a fun and successful event.” The event was sponsored by the Eastern Maumee Bay Chamber of Commerce and the City of Oregon. There were seven vendors featuring food, produce from farmers markets, and family activities, such as cornhole. “We hope to add more next year,” said Beazley. “There was some pent up demand for that kind of event in Oregon. We’re looking to make sure we’re taking the right steps to organize it next year. There’s the question of whether we should do this once a month, twice a month, once per week – these are all the things we’re looking at for next spring.”
other venues in the city,” she said. Catching up Seaman told The Press last week that he wanted to start the farmers market in Oregon because he saw how successful farmers markets were in other communities. “I thought we were a little bit behind the times because most of our neighbors have farmers markets and food trucks. It was a fun thing for citizens to do. It was time we did it. I took the bull by the horns and everything turned out. I was so happy,” he said. Among the food that was featured were donuts, waffles, hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza and pork sirloin sandwiches, which Seaman tasted. “It was delicious,” he said. Holey Toledough, a food truck that baked donuts, was also at the event. “They made fresh donuts with sprinkles on them, and waffles, right out of the oven and onto your plate. It was tremendous,” said Seaman. “We had produce from Bench’s and Sprague’s farms that included fresh corn, cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage,” said Seaman. Other vendors included homemade soap making, and the sale of small furniture Those who attended the event were asked to fill out a form for feedback, he said. “We took a scientific approach to see what we could do to make it better for next year,” said Seaman. “We plan on having more food trucks than we had. Not too many so that the vendors don’t make much money, but it should grow a bit.”

Prom night is a special moment in the lives of many teenagers. TradiĆ&#x;on plays a role in making prom night special. Even parents get emoĆ&#x;onal when they watch their youngsters adhere to many of the same customs they partook in decades earlier. One such tradiĆ&#x;on involves the wearing of boutonnires and corsages. Some may be interested to learn the origins of the unique custom of wearing boutonnires and corsages. â&#x20AC;˘ Boutonnires: Men wear boutonnires on special occasions, including weddings, religious ceremonies and prom night. At weddings, the groom and his groomsmen typically boutonnires. But some historians believe men have not always worn ďŹ&#x201A;owers strictly on special occasions. Some believe the modern-day boutonnire traces its lineage to sporĆ&#x;ng events in ancient civilizaĆ&#x;ons, including Egypt. During those Ć&#x;mes, men might have worn certain colored ďŹ&#x201A;owers as a show of support for parĆ&#x;cular parĆ&#x;cipants in sporĆ&#x;ng events, not unlike how many modern sports fans wear team shirts, jerseys and other aĆŤre to display their support for their favorite teams. But according to GentlemansGazeĆŠe.com, the boutonnires of today likely started appearing just a few centuries ago. A 1771 painĆ&#x;ng of BriĆ&#x;sh Captain William Wade by the arĆ&#x;st Thomas Gainsborough depicted Wade wearing a bouquet of ďŹ&#x201A;owers in his top buĆŠonhole. And in the 19th century, menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fashion included coats that folded over the top, revealing the inside of the buĆŠonhole. Boutonnires provided an aestheĆ&#x;cally appealing way to cover up that buĆŠonhole. â&#x20AC;˘ Corsages: The term â&#x20AC;&#x153;corsageâ&#x20AC;? was once a reference to the bodice of a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dress. The ďŹ rst corsages were actually worn on the bodice, which is the part of a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dress that is above the waist, and some believed the corsage could ward oÄŤ evil spirits. According to PollenFloralDesign.com, by the 1900s, corsages were worn closer to the shoulder than the bodice. At this Ć&#x;me, the ďŹ&#x201A;owers were pinned on upside down, with the bow at the top. The corsages were also larger at this Ć&#x;me than they are today. The tradiĆ&#x;on of giving corsages to young ladies on their prom nights is relaĆ&#x;vely recent. In fact, many historians agree that this pracĆ&#x;ce likely began in the 20th century in the United States when gentlemen would typically arrive to pick up their prom dates bearing bouquets of ďŹ&#x201A;owers for their datesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; parents. The young men would then remove one ďŹ&#x201A;ower from the bouquet and aĆŠach it to their datesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dress.
