Toledo well-positioned
Manufacturing: Renaissance or “rebalancing” By John Szozda Press General Manager The reasons for the rebirth of American manufacturing are the same reasons that could put the Toledo area at the top of the list for the return of American jobs that years ago were outsourced to countries with low labor costs. While there’s debate about the strength of this renaissance, there’s no doubt the playing field has leveled and factors other than labor costs are driving manufacturers to move operations here. D. Paul Zito, vice president of international development with the Regional Growth Partnership, and Matt Sapara, director of development for the City of Toledo, summarized these reasons in interviews with The Press: Shipping issues--Being closer to the American consumer allows for better inventory control to accommodate a change in consumer tastes and a shorter delivery time to the retailer. In addition, freight costs, import duties, quality inspections, freight damage and insurance costs are offsetting America’s higher labor costs; High quality workforce--Zito said, “I was just in meetings with three German

Plans also call for a gas station, according to Mayor Mike Seferian. “I know at different times, this might become a little bit of a topic amongst residents and some people in the city of whether that’s a proper use for that piece of property,” said Seferian. The parcel faced foreclosure years ago following several attempts to purchase it, he added. “Each of those attempts had failed. Now there’s an agreement to try and put that property to use,” he said. The Plan Commission will review the application before making a recommendation to council, which will likely vote on it on Sept. 22. Seferian said the city has to decide whether to control “how retail chooses to purchase property.” “We have to make a decision how we enter into the control or lack of control of how retail chooses to do business in our city. I’ve explained to many people who live in the Park Place condos that maybe it’s not the business you would most desire to be in front of your property, but it might not be the least desirable venture either. So the only way you could control the destiny of the property around you is to own it. I just want to make council aware that this is coming up, and you will be facing a decision. I’m sure there will be strong feelings - in some instances against this proposal. Do you really want to be in that position to control the destiny of how the retail goes in here. There is a demand to put that parcel into action. We’re going to face a few of those challenges as applications for a couple of the parcels come up over the next few years. We have to be united on how we pursue each one of them because we have to be known as the community that treats retail business fairly,” said Seferian. Administrator Mike Beazley said the parcel needs a special or conditional use
owned operations and they all praised our workforce. The operations they have in the Toledo area have the best productivity, efficiency, innovation and enthusiasm of any of their operations around the globe.” Although, Toledo is known as a union town, Zito says, labor here is cheaper than in many larger U.S. cities such as New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Sapara agrees. “We have a quality,
skilled workforce with a history of making things. Different parts of the country are known for different things. On the east coast, they are known for financial acumen. Here, we build things. That’s what we are really good at;” Access to markets--Sapara said, “We are located in the heart of everything. You can reach 80 percent of the U.S. consumer population in a one day drive;” Other advantages--Our port, rail, abundant water and inexpensive energy due to the fracking boom; Labor costs--While labor costs are rising in the Asian Rim countries, they have stabilized or decreased in the U.S. due to the 2008 recession. These factors have spurred some U.S. manufacturers to return to American soil. Some foreign manufacturers, who produce products for the American market, are joining them. Zito mentioned Whirlpool, which in 2013 moved 80 to 100 jobs from Mexico to its Clyde location citing high electrical and transportation costs. Sapara mentioned Crown Battery, which in 2009 moved its operation in Reynosa, Mexico to Fremont. Zito also cited two foreign based companies which have moved into the Toledo

Manufacturing Continued from front page area: Kuka Systems, a German company located on the Jeep complex, has added about 175 jobs in the past two years to supply Jeep which has added 2,000 jobs in the past three years. And Topre, a Japanese tier one auto supplier, last year opened an engineering office in Maumee. Zito expects others Japanese companies to follow. He said a survey of Japanese manufacturers by the Japan External Trade Organization showed 60 percent of companies who have operations outside of Japan plan to invest in the U.S. within two years to produce goods to be sold here. Another factor driving this uptick is that, given all the political unrest in the world, the U.S. is seen as being both politically and economically stable. That stability attracts investment. This local anecdotal evidence is a good sign manufacturing is coming back. So too is a 2013 survey of 200 decision makers at U.S. companies with sales greater than $1 billion. The survey conducted by the Boston Consulting Group reported that 57 percent of decision makers are planning to shift overseas production to the U.S. The Boston group concluded in a 2013 report that this reshoring of American firms coupled with increased exports due to improved U.S. competitiveness could create 2.5 to 5 million jobs. Not everyone is that optimistic, however. A June article by the Harvard Business Review downplays the notion of a renaissance. The author cites a study that shows a “modest improvement� and called this a “rebalancing� of manufacturing which had shifted to lower-cost nations. The term “modest improvement� might be more accurate than renaissance when you take into consideration the challenges WalMart faces in its effort to spend $50 billion more on U.S. products in the next decade. The retail giant launched its MadeIn-America Initiative last August when it brought together 500 suppliers, 32 state governments and major retail industry leaders to a manufacturing summit. It pledged to spend $50 billion, 10 percent of its retail sales, on American made products and immediately announced contracts with six suppliers that would create 1,000 jobs. So, how has it gone? Slower than expected. A Reuters article detailed the problems WalMart is having. Ironically, the company probably the most responsible for the shift in manufacturing from U.S. shores to China, is having difficulty locating companies that can find American made components to build the products as well as an experienced workforce to assemble them. This difficulty, however, will not stop America’s largest retailer. WalMart has more than 10,800 stores and serves 245 million customers a week. It will do what is in its best interest and in the near future the company believes that will be selling American made products because it will be able to deliver them to American consumers at the lowest cost.

It makes sense to make it in America By Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur You wouldn’t think the concept of “Make It In America� would be that hard to sell in the nation’s capital. After all, getting more Americans back to work by creating the right conditions for manufacturing businesses to invest, expand and hire seems like common sense. America has always been an innovation hub and ought to continue to be for generations to come. It is why I have supported the Make It In America agenda in the House as a blueprint for the job creation America needs. The “Make It in America� agenda aims to revitalize our manufacturing sector in order to increase economic competitiveness and create jobs that won’t be shipped overseas. The concept has the support of business, labor, economists, and even a large number of my Republican colleagues. The fact is that you could go to the most Republican district in America and talk about making it in America, and heads will nod in agreement. And, you could go to the most Democratic district and talk about making it in America and heads will move in agreement. It is a unifying agenda in a country that is looking for a way forward. As a case in point, manufacturing has been a bright spot in our economic recovery by increasing jobs and helping other sectors expand. Manufacturing also taps into a fundamental American value: In America, we make things. The production of goods has played a major role in our history, and Americans overwhelmingly believe that making things here ought to be part of our future. Americans watched for years as manu-

It is a unifying agenda in a country that is looking for a way forward. facturing jobs were shipped abroad and bad trade deals became the order of the day. After the decimation of our economy by the North American Free Trade Act and Most Favored Nation (MFN) status for China, the rising costs of production in places such as Mexico and China has brought attention back to U.S. investment as companies are beginning to bring jobs back home. Here, they seek the experience, talent and productivity of American workers. Google, Ford and Caterpillar have all brought back jobs, recognizing the benefits to U.S. production and innovation. The President has acknowledged the trend saying: “We have a huge opportunity, at this moment, to bring manufacturing back. But we have to seize it. ‌It’s time to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs overseas and start rewarding companies
that create jobs right here in America.� He’s exactly right. Manufacturing has the potential to be a jobs-creating engine. But the feedback I have heard from manufacturers interested in moving their production here is that we need to do more to prepare the workers they need — workers with specialized skills in technology and engineering. And our infrastructure network, critical to moving goods to market, is in serious disrepair. The Make It In America plan takes a comprehensive approach toward creating the environment that businesses need to succeed and add jobs. It includes preparing a skilled workforce, investing in infrastructure, making it easier for businesses to invest in research, and reforming the corporate tax system to help companies bring jobs back home. [Among the bills in the agenda: The Workers Opportunity and Retraining Competitive Grant Program would establish a manufacturing grant program that provides scholarships to unemployed workers for manufacturing job retraining; the Education for Jobs Act would expand federal student-loan programs to working professionals and others who may have difficulty meeting current requirements; and, the Manufacturing Jobs for Veterans Act would accelerate training for veterans in manufacturing careers.] In America, the wealthiest country in the world, we will lose only if we fail to invest in the priorities of success. It’s time we harnessed that great American problem-solving energy once more and put it to work creating jobs that won’t be shipped overseas. Manufacturing can be that solution, but Congress must resolve that we need to “Make It In America.�
Agency keeps tabs on ‘USA’ marketing claims By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Since the beginning of 2014, the Federal Trade Commission has sent about a dozen “closing lettersâ€? to companies it found were not complying with regulations covering Made in USA product labeling. The letters inform companies that the commission found there was a violation but it agrees not to pursue the matter further if the company agrees to follow corrective steps. The letters conclude with the commission stating it reserves the right to take additional action “as the public interest may require.â€? A sampling: • In July, Fresh Produce Holdings agreed to update its website, review its countryof-origin claims and enhance compliance controls after it was determined its marketing materials may have overstated the extent that clothing and accessory products containing imported content were made in the U.S. • In February, Niagara Industries agreed to remove unqualified U.S.-origin claims from marketing and use new product packaging. Although the company’s tank-less water heaters are assembled in the U.S. and contain some domestic components, several key components are imported. • In January, AS America, Inc. agreed to re-train employees who generate bar code labels, correct labels on inventory and re-

view country-of-origin claims on marketing materials after it was discovered some American Standard-branded toilets containing substantial imported content had been marked “Made in USA.� Julia Solomon Ensor, an FTC staff attorney, said the agency tries to avoid an adversarial approach when enforcing the regulations. “In this area we typically do a lot of staff counseling for companies,� she said. �We think it’s really important that companies can make their legitimate made in the USA claims. But on the other hand we want to make sure consumers aren’t being deceived. In many instances we work with companies to help them make sure that their claims are truthful. Complaints often come from competitors of companies making the allegedly
false claims. “We typically receive several complaints every month about companies that are making potentially deceptive claims. A lot of times those complaints come in from competitors because they are in a better position to determine whether the claims are true or false. Consumers are not really able to look at a product and judge just from the face of the product whether the claim is true or not,� Solomon Ensor said. Complaints can be filed on the FTC website but many companies contact Solomon Ensor and staffers directly. The commission this summer reached an agreement with an Ohio company that provided “Made in USA� certification labels to marketers. Columbus-based Made in the USA Brand, LLC charged $250 to $2,000 for a one-year license to use the certification label, according to the FTC, but the company didn’t independently evaluate the products before certifying them. It also had no procedures in place to determine whether marketers complied with FTC standards. “Seals can be very helpful when consumers purchase products based on claims that are difficult to verify – like the Made in the USA claim,� said Jessica Rich, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. “When marketers provide seals without any verification, or without telling consumers the seal is unverified, consumers are deceived and the value of all marketers’ seals is diminished.�

There’s no place like home…when you buy American By Tammy Walro and Stephanie Szozda When it’s time to buy furnishings for their homes, many consumers do a little research before heading to the store, particularly when making a major purchase. Besides comparing cost of items, shoppers consider the style, function and quality before spending their hard-earned cash. But what about where the goods are manufactured?
According to a survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center, given a choice between a product made in the U.S. and an identical one made abroad, 78 percent of Americans would rather buy the American product. Choosing to buy products made in the United States keeps jobs here. It also helps assure that human rights, safety and environmental standards are being met.

Recently, The Press set out to try to furnish a virtual house with products made in the U.S. We found many. A number of products were clearly labeled, “Made in America,” but in all cases, sales associates were happy to show items that were manufactured in the U.S. The cost of the American-made goods varied widely and in many cases, less expensive and higherend options of the items we chose were available.

Senator pushes for local manufacturing By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com In Sherrod Brown’s opinion, if there is one item the federal government routinely purchases that should be made in the U.S. it is the American flag. A bill the Ohio senator introduced, the All-American Flag Act, would require American flags bought by the government to be produced entirely with Americanmade materials. Currently, the federal government is only required to purchase flags made from a minimum of 50 percent American produced materials. “With Ohio companies proudly producing the American flag, taxpayer funds shouldn’t be used to purchase flags from other countries,” Sen. Brown said. “It’s easy to buy an American flag made in Ohio. RS Sewing, Inc., in Canton, is the nation’s largest supplier of American-made stick flags, and Annin Flagmakers has a manufacturing plant in Coshocton.” The flag act bill cleared the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and is awaiting a vote by the full Senate. Revitalization bill During a visit to Lauren Manufacturing in New Philadelphia, O. last month, Sen. Brown urged passage of a bill that aims to boost manufacturing by fostering collaboration between universities, industry and the federal government. The senator said the Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act had bi-partisan support and would make collaboration easier by establishing
public-private institutes to leverage resources needed to bridge the gap between basic research and product development. “While we’ve made great advancements, like here in New Philadelphia, there’s still more to be made and more jobs to create,” he said. The bill was approved by the Senate Commerce Committee in April and is awaiting a vote by the full Senate. Trade decision lauded Last month, Sen. Brown and Sen. Rob Portman voiced their support of a U.S. International Trade Commission ruling protecting domestic steel manufacturers. After months of prodding by the senators, the ITC ruled that it would levy trade tariffs against the countries, including South Korea, for unfair trade practices. The ITC vote imposes anti-dumping duties on six of the nine countries which were accused of exporting what are called dumped “oil country tubular goods” into the United States. The six countries represent 90 percent of dumped imports into the U.S. last year, the senators said. “Ohio pipe and tube companies are among the best in the world, but we must stand up to foreign competitors who break trade rules at the expense of Ohio workers,” Portman said. Oil country tubular steel goods (OCTG) are used for domestic oil exploration, The U.S. Department of Commerce investigated the dumping of OCTG into the U.S. market from nine countries, including India, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam.

New principal to talk goals at Sept. meeting Todd Deem, Waite’s new principal, will speak to the East Toledo Club Thursday, September 18 at Noon at the East Toledo Senior Center. The public is invited. Deem will talk about his goals to make Waite the best comprehensive public school in the city of Toledo. He will address his efforts to continue the Waite traditions of service to the community, activities and the relationship with the Waite Alumni Association to the school. He also will talk about his plans to increase the school’s emphasis on athletics. Deem most recently was principal at Riverside Elementary in North Toledo. He grew up in the Raymer district, graduated from Waite in 1988 and spent 10 years working at the East Toledo Family Center before embarking on a career in education. Deem, 44, is just the 11th principal in Waite’s 101 years. Compare this to the average stay nationwide for a high school principal--four years, according to some studies. He follows in the footsteps of Dave Yenrick who served as principal for 17 years.

because of the gas station. “If you look at the proposed development for this corner, almost all the uses proposed would be automatically allowed without any permit,� he said. “The strip mall could be carried out or put in without seeking an additional permit of any kind. But a gas station in Oregon is always either a conditional use or a special use depending on where you’re locating it. In a C-5, it is a special use.� Other commercially zoned property would require a conditional use, he added. “A gas station itself is always something that either comes to the plan commission for a special or conditional approval or ultimately to a council,� he said. The developers do not need any waivers or setbacks, he said. “It comes with fewer strings than some. I don’t think in this case there would be exceptions allowed – no setback or buffering reductions. Everything in their proposal will fit within the footprint and the parameters of our code, but a gas station is always either a conditional or special use because of the consideration of the impact of that use,� said Beazley. Councilman James Seaman said the

gas station would attract more customers to the strip mall and is needed for its success. “Maybe a strip mall has a better chance if there’s a gas station,â€? he said. “It rounds out the ability of that strip to be economically viable. That’s part of the total picture to make the strip successful. Sometimes, that’s the way an entrepreneur looks at things. We have to keep that in mind.â€? Seferian agreed. “You’re exactly right because when you’re building a strip mall‌you’re looking for traffic flow into your complex. They know a service station usually provides, for the most part, an essential part of someone’s budget,â€? said Seferian.
Councilman Tim Zale, though, said the city’s master plan had wanted to keep more retail businesses west of Wynn Road. “I’ve never personally equated a gas station with going shopping. I don’t see the relevancy there,� said Zale. “I’m not opposed, necessarily, to a gas station, potentially coming to that area. When I look at the idea of a strip mall being added to that, we can’t fill the areas of retail inside the city with strip malls now versus putting one in a location way out there. I don’t know if that area personally is ready for development of that kind.� He expected a lot of opposition to the zoning change. “It’s in my neighborhood and I have received a lot of calls of concern from neighbors,� he said. He also said it is council’s responsibility to “somewhat regulate� what type of businesses go into certain locations. “We have to be cautions about how we do that, I agree, because we don’t want to interfere with good development in the city. But at the same time, I do think it is incumbent upon us to somewhat regulate businesses and where they are going to be in the city,� he said.
Trustees ask, is this parcel a wetland? By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The Lake Township trustees may be wading into a sea of red tape if they seek to have a parcel of land along Ayers Road drained. The 8.5-acre parcel west of the intersection of Ayers and Bradner roads has brought complaints from a few residents, Richard Welling, a trustee, said at a recent meeting. A drainage ditch along Ayers doesn’t drain the parcel, he said. Consequently, it is often flooded and a breeding ground for mosquitoes. The county engineer’s office had said the property isn’t the responsibility of the county, Welling said. The trustees briefly discussed the property but heeded the advice of Dave Miesmer, township zoning inspector, who said the parcel should be researched to determine if it’s on a protected inventory list of wetlands. Dina Pearce, a spokesperson for the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, said the agency advises local governments and residents to not rely solely on wetland inventories before embarking on
a project. “Ohio EPA does not maintain a wetland inventory. Inventories maintained by other agencies do exist; however, the wetlands listed in inventories have not all been verified by an on-the-ground survey of the site and they do not necessarily represent every wetland that is subject to regulation,� she said. “We advise people not to rely on wetland inventories because they are frequently inaccurate.� The agency does, however, regulate the filling in of wetlands. “Drainage of an existing wetland is not regulated by Ohio EPA – as long as they are not filling or moving soil around in the wetland. If they find a way to drain the wetland without putting anything in it, no permit would be required,� Pearce said, noting landowners should consult with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers before doing any construction or other work on the site. If a wetland is subject to the Corps’ jurisdiction, a permit from the Corps will be required prior to any construction activities, she said. If a project requires a permit, then a water quality certification permit from the EPA is also required. Ohio law prohibits destruction of the
highest quality wetlands, known as category 3 wetlands, unless it is for public need, Pearce said. Public need would include projects such as roads and bridges and public buildings such as schools, hospitals and government buildings. The law makes exceptions for agriculture and forestry/timber uses. Mark Hummer, township administrator, said it is unlikely the township would take any action on the privatelyowned parcel barring a proven health hazard. Bruce Sanders, a spokesman for the Buffalo district of the Corps, said his office hasn’t received any requests to determine if the parcel would come under its jurisdiction. “There are inventories that exist for both the federal and states,� he said. “But our procedure is if we get a request for a determination we send someone to the site rather than relying on satellite photos or maps,� he said. The Wood County auditor’s website lists the owners of the property as Charles and Betty Guthrie. They could not be reached for comment.

City of Oregon ok’s contracts with unions By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon city council on Monday approved collective bargaining agreements with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) and the Oregon Police Command Officers/Fraternal Order of Police. The previous collective bargaining agreements with AFSCME and the Oregon Police Command Officers/Fraternal Order of Police had expired on June 30 and May 31, 2014 respectively. The renewed contracts included pay raises over a three year period. As of July 14, 2014, employees received a 3 percent raise, which will be followed by 2 ¾ percent raise in July 2015, and a 2 ½ percent raise in July 2016. The contracts are similar to the three year contract approved by council in June for the Oregon Police Patrolmen’s Association (OPPA) that included salary increases for police and dispatchers, said Mayor Mike Seferian. “The substantial parts of the contract wages are identical,” he said. “The OPPA set the standard.” “We feel this will continue to position Oregon as being able to attract and retain quality employees at the same time being responsible with the budget,” said Administrator Mike Beazley. “One of the significant aspects of it was looking long term at getting greater control of our health care costs. We think we can do better with that,” he said. Both contracts, as well as the contract with the OPPA, include the provision for the establishment of a Healthcare Cost Containment and Advisory Committee that will meet quarterly. It will serve in an advisory and recommending capacity to the employer and bargaining units on matters related to health care, health insurance and coverage, and wellness of employees. The committee will investigate methods and best approaches to providing health care and insurance for city employees and options to contain the overall costs of health care. “We’re going to have ongoing recommendations to changes in health care during the life of the contracts in ways we think can responsibly meet the needs of our workforce, but also help control costs,” said Beazley. “It was a primary management objective.” Both contracts had been approved by the respective unions last month, added Beazley. New rescue squads Council also approved the purchase of two new rescue squads for the fire department. Oregon will pay $185,000 per vehicle to Penn Care, of Niles, Ohio, for the two 2014 Braun rescue squads. “We’re beyond the useful life on some of our equipment, and its equipment we be-

lieve is essential to the care that we provide to our residents,” said Beazley. Fire Chief Paul Mullen said the squads will replace two van-type squads from 1999 and 2004. They include few add-ons with the exception of the Stryker power cot and load system, which will reduce strenuous lifting and the associated risk of back injury. “It is an electrically operated hydraulically powered cot that hopefully will save us some Workers Comp injuries,” said Mullen. Lucas County life squads currently have the system, which self-loads into the trucks, he added. “It has worked very, very effectively for the county.” He said he hopes to get a grant to pur-
chase more of the power cot and load systems for the city’s other rigs. In the next few months, the committee will look into replacing fire engines that are past their service dates as well as other fire equipment, said Mullen. Councilman Tim Zale said he toured the fire stations with Mullen soon after he was appointed chief earlier this year and saw the need to update the stations and fire equipment. “[Mullen] was very diligent right from the beginning to consider how we were going to start updating the fire stations and the equipment, much of which is outdated,” said Zale, who is also chairman of the Safety Committee. “He has been very proactive getting started on that.”

Larry Michaels, aka Peter Navarre, talks to Navarre Elementary School students during a recent Peter Navarre Day.
Ceremony set at monument A ceremony in honor of the 100th anniversary of the dedication of the Peter Navarre Monument will be held Friday, September 5, at 2:00 p.m. Peter Navarre (Larry Michaels) and Robert Navarre (Terry Breymaier) will participate in the program coordinated by Robyn Hage. The monument at the corner of Navarre Avenue and White Street was dedicated on July 4, 1914. The guns on the monument are in honor of both Peter and Robert Navarre for their services as scouts for General Harrison during the War of 1812. About 5,000 “patriotic citizens” were in
Oregon Police are investigating thefts that occurred in connection with the recent German American Festival held at Oak Shade Grove. According to Festival Chairman Tim Pecsenye, a cuckoo clock valued at $1,700 was reported stolen by a vendor Sunday night after the vendors had shut down their booths. In addition “Euro Express,” who performed at the festival, reported all their band equipment had been stolen from a trailer parked at a local hotel. “A few years ago, there was a similar situation where a few golf carts were stolen from GAF,” Pecsenye said. “Fortunately, however, through social contact at several events and active conversation, tips were given and the golf carts were recovered. Anyone with information is urged to call the Oregon police at 419-6987064.

Tucker, president of the East Toledo Commercial Club, was the master of ceremonies. Also present at the dedication were Peter’s three surviving sons (Oliver, Eli, and Lambert) and his two daughters (Susan and Zoa). Robert R., the last son of Robert the scout, died just a few months before the monument was dedicated. Victoria Caderact, the last Chippewa on the East Side, was too ill to attend, and she died the following year.

Board plan to remove ballot issue stalled By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com After crunching numbers and consulting with the Ohio School Facilities Commission, the Eastwood school board and administration had what they considered a winning formula for financing the local share of construction costs for a new elementary school building. But after receiving an opinion last week from the Ohio Attorney General’s office, district officials are now waiting for clarification on how they can proceed with the building project. The board had planned to vote last Tuesday to remove a bond issue request from the November ballot, reversing a decision it made in June to place the issue before voters. Since June, the district received its first property tax payment reflecting a revised valuation of a Troy Energy facility, Brent Welker, school superintendent, explained and district officials believed they had more options for the district’s share of construction costs. “Eastwood schools have learned from our financial advisors that we can use the money from the Home Depot agreement, along with a portion of new tax money from Troy Energy, to fund our local share and pay off the debt in 10 years,” Welker said at the time. “Given the fact that we can raise our local share without extending our current debt, it simply does not make sense to ask voters to approve a bond issue that is no longer relevant.” The Home Depot agreement calls for the company, which is building a distribution facility, to pay $675,000 annually to the district for 15 years. The combination of funding from the Home Depot agreement and Troy Energy would have enabled the district to not go to taxpayers for funding but instead issue what are called certificate of participation bonds to finance about $11 million for the district’s share of the costs. However, the attorney general’s office has concerns about the district issuing the bonds. “This was a surprise to us since we received a green light…when we met with the commission in Columbus,” Welker says in an Aug. 26 email to Eastwood residents. The board dropped its proposal to remove the ballot issue from its Aug. 26 meeting agenda. Welker said the board will provide residents with ample opportunity to voice their opinion on the matter. “We understand that before action is taken, there are segments of the community who will want to be heard on the issue,” his email says. “I can assure you that we will make sure such opportunities are made available.” The district plans to build an 80,000-square-foot building to house students in kindergarten through the fifth grades. The OSFC would provide about $7 million for the project.
Resale shop setting roots in Oak Harbor By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com Shoppers looking for a true “find,” as well as avid browsers will discover that Neighborhood Resale Shop & Antique Mall in Oak Harbor truly has something for just about everyone. The eclectic mix of items includes furniture, dishes, silverware, vintage signs, pictures, paintings, tools, books and clothes. Susie Murray, one of the store’s owners, noted there is great appeal for some of the vintage items with the Baby Boomers, who often say that stepping into the store is like being transported back to their childhood. “A lot of times with the older clientele, they love just to come through and reminisce,” Murray said. “When they leave, they always say, ‘Thank you so much for bringing back our memories.’ Nine times out of 10, if they haven’t said my grandmother or mother had this (item), it’s odd. They love to come and see the stuff they grew up with. “We also have quite a big younger audience,” Murray said. “They look for that well-built item or that unique piece that you can’t find at a store nowadays. It’s the way (the items) look to you, feel to you. For the most part, people find something. We try to have something everybody likes. The store, located at 104 W. Water St. next to Pisanello’s Pizza, has 18 consignees and six dealers renting space. “We have a large variety (of items) and you never know what you’ll find when you come in. We are consistently bringing things in. We have all kinds of things – things that we’ve bought at auctions, flea markets and garage sales,” she said. The shop, which is owned and operated by Murray, along with John McGlynn
Store owners say there is appeal for some vintage items with Baby Boomers. and Colleen and Kevin Cooper, opened 16 months ago. Murray and McGlynn are a couple, and McGlynn’s sister, Colleen, is married to Kevin, with whom she lives in southeastern Michigan. Colleen, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer nearly four years ago, came up with the idea for opening an antique shop when she realized it would be difficult to maintain her job as a flight attendant while battling the illness. “(Colleen) dreamt up the idea four years ago,” said Murray. “She didn’t think she’d be well enough to go back to her job. (But) she went through chemotherapy and radiation and is back working as a flight attendant.” Murray attributes the store’s suc-
cess in part to word-of-mouth – customers telling their friends and family about their finds. The company’s website, www.neighborhoodresaleshopandantiques.com, and Facebook page also help attract and keep customers connected. The owners also sell items on Etsy and Craigslist. Murray says she is happy with where the company is after 16 months in business and is hopeful about the future. “It’s something we all wanted at some point in our lives – a business of our own,” she said. Neighborhood Resale Shop & Antique Mall is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. For more information, call Susie Murray at 419-577-1066.
Mann Technologies opens in Woodville By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com Mann Technologies recently expanded, opening a new store in Woodville early last month. The computer shop, which was founded by Genoa native Joel Mann 13 years ago, is hoping to gain more clientele while immersing itself into the Woodville community. Mann’s mission “to enhance the quality of life for all our customers by providing affordable, high-tech solutions and related equipment,” is different from other computer stores because it has a smaller, locally-based approach, the founder says. This allows the employees to have more of an intimate relationship with the customers not typically offered at a “big box” store. “I guess we’re more homegrown,” said Matt Milbrodt, who works at the Woodville branch. “We’re used to dealing with local people, so we’re more of a hometown technology store. Typically, we will handle everything from replacement of hardware to removal of viruses to building new systems. If we make a mistake, we’ll correct it.” Mann Technologies serves a wide-ranging clientele including home users and businesses, including doctors’ offices and law firms. Currently, the company employs six employees and one intern.
Matt Milbrodt (left) and Joel Mann are shown at the counter of the new store So far, things appear to be going well in Woodville. “The people of Woodville have been very friendly and we’ve gotten a good amount of business so far,” Milbrodt said.

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A local state representative joined with colleagues on the state controlling board recently in questioning why the Ohio Department of Transportation didn’t do more to assist Ohio universities when the department sought requests for proposals for a research/planning project to improve bridge construction. State Rep. Chris Redfern (D- Catawba Island) and at least two other members of the board indicated during a board meeting last month they wouldn’t approve a contract with Iowa State University for $166,269 even though it was lower than proposals from Cleveland State University, Case Western University, Ohio University and the University of Toledo. Andrew Bremmer, director of legislative affairs for ODOT, described the responses from the Ohio schools as “inadequate” to board members but they weren’t swayed, according to meeting minutes. Bremmer also said because federal funding is being used to pay for part of the project, ODOT is prohibited from indicating a preference for Ohio institutions in the requests for proposals. But Sen. Chris Widener (R – Springfield) argued that ODOT has received a waiver from the federal government for geographic preference in previous requests. The senator said the project should have shown an Ohio preference and an Ohio school could
There were no injuries reported in a train/truck crash Aug. 22 at a crossing on MartinWilliston Road in Ottawa County, the sheriff’s department said. A semi was travelling north on the road at around 8:50 a.m. when its trailer became stuck on the tracks. A train coming from the west stuck the truck. Sheriff’s deputies said the driver was able to exit the truck before the crash but the vehicle, which was leased to the Helena Chemical Co., was a total loss.

be the lead and, in turn, retain Iowa State personnel for their expertise. Rep. Ross McGregor (R – Springfield) agreed with Widener, saying he was skeptical Ohio universities are vague or incapable of understanding the requests for proposals. When it became apparent the ODOT request wouldn’t be approved, Bremmer agreed to take it back to the department for further study. “When someone comes before the controlling board, Democrats and Republicans alike ask the same questions; can someone do it cheaper with the same quality and/or why are we doing this out-of-state and not in-state?” Rep. Redfern said. “When the issue came up with Iowa State the ODOT answer was they’ve been working with them and they always do good work. That is un-
acceptable to not be competitive and have Ohio organizations be the first choice when awarding contracts. “In-state may be more expensive but over the long term can you drive costs down by using an in-state vendor? Also, those resources are being used locally. I was a county commissioner and we could probably have purchased vehicles cheaper in Dayton or Indianapolis but we tried to buy from someone in Ottawa County.” The bid proposals were: • Cleveland State - $250,327 • Case Western - $265,577 • Iowa State - $166,269 • Ohio University - $413,761 • University of Toledo - $219,088 “This contract will develop a specification that will increase the probability of achieving crack free, long-lasting decks. The research will develop a state-of-theart bridge concrete that will give a unique consideration to coming up with the best mix characteristics that will ultimately extend bridge life and delay (or eliminate) the need to replace decks prior to superstructure replacement,” the ODOT request says. In its submission to the controlling board, ODOT wrote that Cleveland State’s work plan lacked detail and UT’s plan was vague and didn’t demonstrate a thorough understanding of what ODOT asked. The Case Western research didn’t reflect research currently in progress and its methodologies were not practical. OU’s budget was “top heavy” and the work plan focused more on lab testing than field testing.

Village to start construction for new solar field By Deb Wallace Special to The Press
Train/truck crash
After two years of negotiations, the Village of Woodville will see the start of construction on a 4½- acre solar field on village-owned land behind the utility building on Lime Road. In July of 2012, Solar Planet, LLC, Columbus, contacted the village about installing a solar field in or near the village. The solar field is a 750 KW system and the panels are made globally with other equipment and material coming from local resources. Village officials said one benefit of
Woodville having a solar field is that it will diversify the energy portfolio and it will supply about 6 percent of the annual energy requirements of the village. Additionally, Woodmore schools will have access to the solar field and will be able to connect digitally to it to collect data for use in various school projects. It’s been a long process to get the project off the drawing board, village officials said. Village council passed legislation in March of 2013 to allow Keith Kruse, administrator, to work with Solar Planet to develop a solar field in the village. In September of that year, Solar Planet submitted chang-
es to the contract and continued to make changes in the contract until December. Solar Planet requested in January 2014 that development be stopped so that they could work out some internal issues and in March the company announced it was under new management. Two years after the initial contact, Solar Planet’s new management met with the village and agreed to honor the original contract. Solar Planet has surveyed the site and will be moving forward on construction by the end of September. The project is expected to be complete by the end of the year.

Looking for direction? Focus on your destination Do you know where you want to go? What do you envision as your destination? Are you staring at the ground or contemplating down the road into the distance? Perhaps you are constantly looking behind you. Your destination determines your direction in life. Without one, you drift and wander. A destination must be of your own choosing. Heading toward someone else’s destination is generally devoid of real enthusiasm, providing little satisfaction when reached. Therefore, adjusting your destination based on the expectations of others, or in response to criticism, compromises your own desires. Everyone has an opinion to offer concerning where they believe you should go. But it doesn’t matter what other people think about your particular destination. Your choice must be based on your dreams and desires. There are various time frames for destinations. Where do you want to go today? This week? This month? This year? Five years from now? Ten years down the road? Knowing where you would like to be in the
Dare to Live
by Bryan Golden future aids you in determining which closer destinations you must first attain. You are more likely to trip and fall when you are fixated at your feet, rather than looking further down your path. How often have you heard, “pay attention to where you are going?” Fear inhibits your ability to pick a destination. Fear of failure, fear of ridicule, fear of making a bad decision, and fear of criticism are among the most common fears. Life is not perfect. You are always free to make changes as needed. Make the best choice right now based on the information you have. Giving into fear prevents you from moving forward. Worry is a colossal waste of time which never accomplishes anything. It’s
easy to conjure up limitless “what if” scenarios describing every possible way things can go wrong. Worry, like fear, stops you. Action is the way to address the concerns you have. Do something about those issues you have some control over. Formulate contingency plans to deal with situations out of your hands. Doubt, like worry, drains your energy. All types of doubt emanate from your own fears. Doubt also seeps in based on negative comments you receive from others. You may doubt your abilities, your chances of success, your resolve, your experience, or any number of other issues. Give in to doubt and you will never arrive at your destination. A burning desire along with unshakable determination vanquishes doubt. Uncertainty is another negative which wears away your resolve. There is no way to predict the future with certainty unless you give up. Only then can you be assured of failure. The same strategies used to ward off fear, doubt, and worry also work for uncertainty; chose the destination you really want and do whatever is necessary to get to it. How about unrealistic destinations?
Isn’t it a waste of time striving for something unrealistic? Trying to ascertain which destinations are realistic is severely limiting. How do you know what is realistic? Every dream at some point was labeled unrealistic before it was reached. Those destinations you reject as unrealistic will inevitably be reached by others who don’t impede their progress with such limiting proclamations. Pick your destinations as if anything were possible. In a fantasy world, where would you like to go? What would be your choices if it didn’t matter what anyone else thought? These are your dream destinations that can be transformed into reality with desire, determination, and action. You can arrive at any destination you choose.

Revitalize labor unions to help the middle class By Robert L. Borosage Labor Day is supposed to be a celebration of workers, but it’s been a long time since workers have been celebrated — or for that matter, have had a reason to celebrate. That’s because the union movement that gave us this holiday is, at least numerically, a shadow of its former self. If we really want to give workers something to cheer about, we need to revitalize unions. It’s no coincidence that prosperity was widely shared when unions were at the height of their power in the decades after World War II, and that inequality has soared as unions have been weakened. That’s what I conclude in Inequality: Rebuilding the Middle Class Requires Reviving Strong Unions, a new Campaign for America’s Future report. My analysis tracks the simultaneous decline in the power of the labor movement and the fortunes of middle-class workers. It makes the case in simple terms. One chart reinforces the point. It compares union membership with the share of income going to the top 10 percent since the 1920s. When only one in 10 workers belonged to unions in the early 1930s, the richest 10 percent pocketed nearly half of the nation’s income. Then President Franklin D. Roosevelt began a set of bold New Deal initiatives that dramatically increased the power of workers to join unions and bargain collectively. The share of workers who were unionized rose to about one-third by the late 1940s. At that point, the bottom 90 percent saw a significant increase in their share of national
Guest Editorial income. Today, as union membership declines to low levels last seen in the 1920s, the share of national income going to the top 10 percent is rising — to levels not seen since then either. Combine that with lackluster economic growth and you get the result chronicled in an August report by Sentier Research. As The New York Times reported, Sentier found that median incomes, when adjusted for inflation, had fallen 3.1 percent since 2009. They remain significantly below what they were in 2000. A corporate-driven propaganda campaign has for decades blamed labor unions for saddling American corporations with burdens that made them uncompetitive in the global economy. That has proven to be cover for dismantling the forces that kept corporations from rigging the economic rules in their favor. When corporate power was kept in check by union power, workers and corporations

at least had a fighting chance to prosper together. Without that check, workers are losing. As wages erode, benefits disappear, work conditions become harsher and jobs themselves become more unstable. The good news is that a combination of worker-activist movements and bold political leadership is setting the stage for a potential resurgence of the labor movement. In Los Angeles and other cities, newly elected pro-labor officials are making companies that benefit from local zoning or contracts pay a living wage and accept unions when a majority of workers indicate they want one. Across the United States, fast-food worker strikes are fueling state and municipal minimum-wage increases while injecting new energy and ideas to worker organizing efforts. President Barack Obama has used executive orders to raise the minimum wage for federal contract workers and require adherence to basic fair labor standards, including the right to organize.

could have effects that ripple through to private sector workers. Labor Day would live up to its purpose if it not only gave workers a temporary respite from the rigors of their jobs, but also drove a national effort to empower workers once again to rebalance the economic scales so that we can rebuild a growing, stable middle class. It needs to be a day on, not a day off, in the effort to reclaim the American dream for working people.

Live! in the House kicks off with bluegrass concert
“
The Pemberville Opera House will come alive with the sounds of bluegrass Sept. 6 as The Rick Prater Band kicks off the seventh season of Live! in the House concerts series. A native son of Knott County, Kentucky, Prater deftly combines the sounds of his home with original musical ideas to form a unique yet traditional sound. After living in Indiana for several years, he returned to Kentucky in 2010. With the move came a reorganization of his band, formerly known as Rick Prater & The Midnight Travelers. Prater’s strong skills on the rhythm guitar, and occasionally on lead guitar, are the perfect complement to his vocal style. Complementing Prater are Larry Martin on banjo and baritone vocals; Brian Scott on mandolin and tenor vocals and John Arms on the bass fiddle. The band members come together to provide a wholesome, family show, that doesn’t rely on gimmicks – there is no smoke and mirrors or fancy light shows, just traditional bluegrass music, played from the heart, for real people. In addition to his normal bluegrass shows, Prater delivers a Bluegrass Gospel program that has earned him many accolades. Tickets to the show, which starts at 7:30 p.m. are $10 and are available at Beeker’s General Rick Prater Store in downtown Pemberville, or by contacting Carol at 419-287-4848 or carol@pembervervilleoperahouse.org. The series will continue with concerts planned the first Saturday of each month through May. The performance schedule includes: • Oct. 4 – Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Barbara Bailey Hutchinson. • Nov. 1 – Vaudevillian magician and comedian The Great Kaplan. • Dec. 6 – Holiday music performed by barbershop chorus The Voices of Harmony. • Jan. 3 – Silent Movie Night featuring some laughs with Charlie Chaplain, highlighted by Lynne Long on the piano. • Feb. 7 – Ragtime Rick and The Chefs of Dixieland. • March 7 – Lone Raven providing an eclectic blend of traditional music from the Celtic lands and other areas of the world. Season tickets are available for $75. Call Bailey at the above number or visit www.pembervilleoperahouse.org for more information.

"Mr. and Mrs. Irishman," Mary Ann and Kevin Mackey, cooked up a second batch of their Angry Irishman Hot Sauce July 11, the day before their wedding. (Press photo by Tammy Walro)
Angry Irishman is hot sauce with an attitude By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com Some like it hot, and some like it very hot and Kevin Mackey is betting that if you’re one of them, you’ll be a fan of Angry Irishman hot sauce. (But don’t worry, if you don’t…he won’t be mad – it’s just the sauce that has the attitude). The story behind Angry Irishman is a love story. It began in 1986 when Mackey and his family relocated to Port Charlotte, Florida after he graduated from Oak Harbor High School. He didn’t want to move, in part because he smitten with classmate Mary Ann Mullin. “We had gone out a couple of times, but I couldn’t tell her how I felt about her,” he said. Living in Florida, he found himself homesick, lovesick and bored. He decided to take advantage of the hot, humid climate and started growing peppers in a little kidney-shaped patch of land in his back yard. “We grew peppers when we lived in Ohio, but I thought I’d try planting the hot varieties,” he said. “They literally grew like weeds.” He used his bumper crop of peppers to make hot sauce, and eventually accepted a challenge from a friend to see who could make the sauce with the most heat. When Mackey won the competition, and his interest was piqued. “I went to the library and did some research on in-

first five or 10 seconds and then the heat just drives it home,” he said. “I put it on everything…I’ve put it in the oil when making popcorn…whew…. it’ll light you up pretty good,” Mackey said. Rave reviews led the couple to consider producing the sauce for sale. Mullin started doing some research. The couple contacted Small Business Development Center through the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce for guidance. On May 28, the couple, with the aid of friends who volunteered their services, cooked up the first batch of Ohio-based Angry Irishman Hot Sauce in the NOCK kitchen. “We put some feelers out to retailers and restaurants, and word must have gotten out because we started getting some calls from places we hadn’t contacted yet,” Mullin said. With their inventory of 715 bottles selling fast, they scheduled a second production date for July 11, just a day before they were getting married. Angry Irishman Hot Sauce is available at several area locations including Frobose Meat Locker, in Pemberville; Novelties and Nostalgia in Woodville; Cuttin’ Loose Hair Salon, Tank’s Meats, Tina’s Country Market and Drive Thru, and Bench’s Greenhouse and Nursery in Elmore.

gredients for making hot sauce,” he said. “Over a period of about seven years of trial and error – including some really disgusting versions – I finally came up with this recipe – a habanero and tomato-based hot sauce.” He gave samples of his sauce it to family and friends to try and after receiving requests for more, he began making the product in his kitchen and selling it on a limited basis. Mackey originally dubbed the sauce, “Jugo del Diablo (juice of the devil). “When I became a Christian, the name didn’t fit too well so I relied on my family history – I’m mostly Irish and we tend to be a rather rambunctious type of folk, so I came up with ‘Angry Irishman.’” Though he was 1,200 miles away, he couldn’t forget about Mary Ann. “In 2009, I followed my heart and reconnected with her,” he said. The next year, he moved back to Northwest Ohio. Busy with work and focusing on a budding relationship, the hot sauce was put on the back burner, until 2012 when Mullin encouraged him to make a batch. “I took it to work for my co-workers to try. Someone asked, ‘What do Irish people know about hot sauce?’ A lot of them asked, ‘How hot is it?’ “I just told them to try it and tell me what they think,” he said, adding, “I admit, I love watching people’s reaction when they taste it for the first time.

A successful year The German-American Festival did not disappoint as it drew one of its largest crowds ever this past weekend, Aug 22-24. More than 35,000 people were in attendance this year. “Despite a few setbacks such as the cooler fire in one of our refrigerated trucks causing us to lose six 55 gallon drums of sauerkraut, a bunch of eggs and a ton and a half of hand-made potato salad, I would
say this year had the best turnout to date. It was amazing to see all of the volunteers come together and make the festival happen without a hitch. The show must go on, and that it did,” said Tim Pecsenye, Festival Chairman. “We want to say a big thank you to all the extremely dedicated volunteers and friends who poured their time and efforts into making this festival great, and to those who really stepped up and helped us during the fire crisis,” Pecsenye said. “Without them, it would not have been possible. We hope that they enjoyed the festivities, and look forward to their support again next year. We also would like to thank the administrators and employees of the City of Oregon, the Oregon School District and employees, and neighbors in the area for their patience throughout the last weekend.” The German-American Festival is the largest supporter of high school level foreign language education in the Toledo area. The German-American Festival Society presented more than $4,000 in scholarships and awards to young German scholars in northwest Ohio. Additionally, several German and Swiss Societies make scholarships available. The Toledo Schwaben Verein has awarded scholarships for 13 years, for a total of 105 scholarships and $52,500. The GBU Financial Life also annually awards several scholarships and grants promoting scholarship through the GBU Foundation. St. Louis Helping Hands Ministry and Little Sisters of the Poor benefited from the leftover food. The committee has already started to work on next year’s event – the 50th annual German American Festival.

Grub ‘n Suds to pay tribute to founder Lowell Krumnow The Elmore Historical Society and ABATE of Ohio Region # 7 are putting the final touches on the 18th annual Grub ‘n Suds Motorcycle Rally, which will be held Saturday, Sept. 6, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Depot Park in Elmore. ABATE is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the rights, improving the image and promoting the safe operating practices of Ohio motorcyclists. Through the years, the organization has used the event to help draw awareness to motorcycle safety and have been at the forefront of the “Look Twice, Save a Life” campaign. Although many of the elements that have made the past 17 events a rousing success will continue, this year’s Grub ‘n Suds will be different for many reasons. Last October, shortly after the 2013 event, the Historical Society lost its founder, Elmore Mayor Lowell Krumnow, to brain cancer. Krumnow started the annual Grub ‘n Suds and this year’s event will be held as a memorial to “The Mayor,” as he was affectionately known to those attending the event. In tribute, ABATE and Diversified Insurance have partnered to sponsor Grub ‘n Suds commemorative glass mugs, which will be etched with memorial and likeness of “The Mayor.” The Historical Society will again be selling their annual Grub ‘n Suds t-shirts. This year’s colorful design will also have a memorial to its founder. As in past years, the ABATE “Headless Motorcycle Run” will start out the day’s festivities. The first 200 registrants will receive a free 2014 edition of the Grub ‘n Suds collector’s mug. Registration for the poker run will begin at 10 a.m. in the ABATE tent at Depot Park. Public judging for the Bike Show will also begin at 10 a.m. Motorcycles will be judged in six classes – custom, historical, cruisers, sport, rat and touring. Winners of

League favorites to battle in Lemoyne Road rivalry By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Friday’s matchup between Northwood and Lake will feature a contrast of styles on offense. Yet, both teams are expected to finish at or near the top of their respective leagues. So, whatever they are doing, running or passing, it works for them. Northwood, as it has done for years, will employ the wishbone offense, a threeback, two-wide system that focuses on running the ball. Coach Ken James has had success with it, and it’s served as a model for how to operate an offense. For years, James has relied on several backs to help form a potent rushing attack and 2014 is no different. The Rangers return two of their top playmakers from last year, QB Mike Vallejo (140 carries, 1,380 yards, 25 touchdowns last year) and running back Dominik Bermejo (over 1,300 yards), two players who will be expected to lead the team’s offense again. Expect to see Chanlor Hayes, Jacob Zieroff, Jonny Wheeler and Joey Woody to see some time in the backfield as well. “So far, they look good,” James said. “Mike is a better passer this year. We hope to take advantage of that. Bermejo has looked quick in scrimmages. He’s faster than he was. Chanlor Hayes is as fast as Dominik. We feel like that speed will help us. “We need to get those guys out in the open. We feel like we need to get the ball into the hands of some our playmakers. The biggest area where we lost people was the O-line. That’s been the biggest concern in the preseason — getting that line rebuilt. I’ve never seen a quarterback that throws well from his back.” Lake, meanwhile, under second-year coach Mark Emans, has one of Northwest Ohio’s best quarterbacks, Jared Rettig, who has verbally committed to the University of Findlay. Last year, Rettig completed 138-of212 (65.1 percent) passes for 2,347 yards to go with 31 touchdowns and six interceptions. His favorite targets, record-setting receivers Adam Duncan (39 receptions, 799 yds., 13 TDs) and Todd Walters (51

Lemoyne Road Rivalry Lake Flyers vs. Northwood Rangers LAKE COMMUNITY STADIUM Friday, September 5 7 p.m.
Lake receiver Adam Duncan, finding open space against Northwood last year, is one of quarterback Jared Rettig’s favorite targets. (Press file photo by Heather Rettig). rec., 958 yds., 11 TDs) return, plus he has running back Branden Short (118 car., 896 yds., 11 TDs) to accompany him in the backfield. Rettig, had two incredible performances last season. In Lake’s 49-35 loss to Genoa, he threw for 312 yards and five touchdowns. Against Elmwood, Rettig went 33-of-47 for 602 yards and seven touchdowns. Because the Flyer offense can beat teams on both the ground and through the air, it creates problems for opposing defenses in terms of how they choose to play against Rettig & Co. “When we have balance, it allows us to do a lot of different things,” Emans said. “It puts defensive coordinators in a position where they have to say, ‘What do we want to stop? The run, the pass? Can they stop both of them in their base defense?’ “It’s a nice advantage to have the different options we have. When we had success in the early 1990s at Wauseon, it was when we were able to (run and pass).” Despite their vastly different offenses,
the two teams do have at least one thing in common: their respect for each other. Emans, who led Wauseon to the Division III state title in 1993, knows what James has built in nearly three decades at Northwood. “Ken has a system and a staff, an offense and a defense that they believe in it and they get their kids to believe in it,” Emans said. “It takes a lot discipline to run that offense. Even when kids graduate, (Ken) still gets his kids to the playoffs (the next season). “The thing that amazes me is that when (Northwood) is hit hard by graduation, he plugs in new bodies and they’re still successful. They don’t have years where they go 8-2 and then 2-8. They’re consistently good. That’s the mark of a good coach.” James credits Emans for the work he’s done in getting the Flyers steered in the right direction. “Mark was a great fit for Lake,” James said. “He brought experience and credibility and won in a tough league (Northwest Ohio Athletic League) at Wauseon. He’s
real professional. He knows how to coach the kids and has a good system. They’ve got the right coaching staff and the right players. With Jared Rettig, Mark Emans knows that he has a good quarterback, and he knows what he’s doing.” Last year’s game was quite different from those of the recent past. The Flyers defeated Northwood, 56-20, in Week 2, breaking the Rangers’ eight-game winning streak in the Lemoyne Road rivalry. Lake would go on to finish 8-2 and 5-2 in the Northern Buckeye Conference, good enough to qualify for the playoffs in the No. 8 slot in Division IV, Region 14. Unfortunately, the Flyers lost, 36-25, to top-seeded Caledonia River Valley on the road. The Rangers, after starting 0-2, reeled off eight straight wins, won another Toledo Area Athletic Conference title and qualified for the Division VI playoffs, where they fell, 34-6, to the top-seeded club, Tinora. This year, Lake is expected to compete for the league title and make a run at the playoffs, which oddly enough, is exactly what Northwood is predicted to do this season. Both teams can take a big step towards accumulating valuable computer points by getting a victory in this game. A Lake-Northwood television broadcast produced by Toledo Sports Network will air on the Channel 13 ABC-Plus Network (digital channel 13.2) Saturday at 10 p.m. The game will also be available for viewing on Time Warner 996 and WMNT Buckeye 58. Broadcasts are also available for viewing at ToledoSportsNetwork.com.
They may be young, but don’t count out Wildcat golfers By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Woodmore’s boys’ golf team won’t have a bulls-eye on its collective back this fall, but no one is willing to count out sixthyear coach Steve Burner’s young squad. The Wildcats won three straight conference titles before last season, when they finished tied for second with Eastwood behind Northern Buckeye Conference champion Lake. Three lettermen return from that Woodmore team, including senior Alex Gedert, a two-time first-team All-NBC performer and state qualifier last season. Gedert will be a four-year letterman this year. “Alex keeps the ball in the fairway, and his iron shots on the greens are fabulous,” Burner said. “That’s what he’s best at, his longer irons onto greens. He’s just got the mentality of a golfer. He thinks things out; he sees things. Down at state, he saw (shot)
windows that I didn’t even see.” Gedert shot a two-over 73 at Green Hills in Clyde at the Hohenstein Invitational. This summer he competed for an Ohio team against a team from host Pennsylvania, using a Ryder Cup format. Burner said he will lean on Gedert for his leadership and to help make up for the graduation of four-year letterman Devin Fisher. “We’re so young, and Gedert is a heck of a leader,” Burner said. “He’s been working with these kids, and they’re like sponges on Alex. They’re listening to what he has to say. As the season goes on, they’re going to get better by what he has to say.” The Wildcats took seventh out of 16 teams in Clyde, shooting a 340 team score. “We are very young, so I was happy,” Burner said. “We have Alex leading the way, and I have two sophomores and two freshmen on the starting quad. We’re trying to get between 330 to 340.” Woodmore’s two sophomore start-

ers are Austin Berkel and Zach Schmeltz. Berkel played in most of the Wildcats’ NBC matches last year. “Those two worked very hard during the summer,” Burner said. “I see big things out of them this year and the next two years. Hopefully, Alex will show them what it’s like to be a big-time golfer. Zach’s strength is his short game. He’s really good at the wedge and the putter. “Berkel just has an all-around game, similar to what Alex has. He understands the game in general. He just needs to get stronger. Once he gets stronger, he’ll be right in that same caliber.” Freshmen Mitchell Miller and Ian Cook have been in the starting lineup early in the season. “They’re young and willing to learn,” Burner said. “They’re working hard but they’re just going to take their lumps off the bat. Mitchell just kills it off the tee, but he has to learn the short game. Hopefully, he can learn that in-between game. Once he
learns that, that could mean the world for him. “Ian is very raw as a golfer. Very athletic. He’s getting with these guys and learning the game of golf. Once Ian picks it up, watch out. He’s got good touch. He’s not very long off the tee yet and that gets him in trouble.” Burner also mentioned freshman Coner Emch as an up-and-comer on the golf course. “That kid is a killer in wrestling,” Burner said, “and the big thing with Coner is he just picked up a club two years ago. He’s very raw, but very athletic. You can tell just watching him how much he wants it. He wants to be on that varsity team. You’re going to see him playing this year on some varsity matches.” Burner, who said senior Jake Greenhill is out indefinitely due to an arm injury, listed Rossford and Lake as the teams to beat in the NBC this season, “with us and Eastwood coming up behind them.” “But,” he said, “we’re not going to concede anything yet.”

Clay spikers relying on their speed, athleticism By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Clay’s motive on the volleyball court this season is all about playing faster. The Eagles, under second-year coach Dave Conley, don’t have anyone taller than 5-foot-10, so they want to use their speed and athleticism to put opponents away. “We’re trying to play good defense and play a faster offense,” Conley said. “Knowing the teams on our schedule that will be our most difficult matches, if we don’t play a little differently, we’re going to get killed at the net. We try to use our athleticism and speed things up.” Clay was 1-1 heading into Thursday’s home match against Notre Dame Academy. The Eagles lost at Anthony Wayne in three games, including 25-23 in the last two games, and beat Northview in four games. “Anthony Wayne is a tough team and that’s a tough place to play,” Conley said. “You gotta give them credit. Northview is much improved. Very scrappy and they play good defense. It was a battle. There was nothing easy about it.” The Eagles return four letter winners in seniors Kallie Seimet, Brooke Gyori and Grace Winckowski, and sophomore Mallory Ladd. All three seniors were starters last season, when Clay took third in the TRAC tournament. “It’s going well so far,” Conley said. “We look to be pretty strong defensively. We’re athletic and trying to use that to our advantage. The chemistry is definitely growing and we’re on the right track there. Our leadership is growing.” Seimet, a 5-7 libero, earned secondteam All-Three Rivers Athletic Conference and all-district honors as a junior. She has given a verbal agreement to play at Bowling Green State University next season, according to Conley. “I would call her a technician,” the coach said. “She plays long for a librero. She’s tall and rangy and very positive. She has a good motor and goes hard all the
Clay sophomore Mallory Ladd (6) joins three seniors, Kallie Selmet, Brooke Gyori, and Grace Winckowski as returning letter winners on the varsity this season. (Press photo by Russ Lytle) time.” Conley said “probably our two best players” are Gyori and Seimet. Both play with the Premier Volleyball Club, and Gyori teamed with a partner this summer to take eighth place at a national two-man beach volleyball tournament in Milwaukee. “Her and Kallie have to be on the court,” Conley said. “You could almost flip
a coin on their defensive ability, Brooke and Kallie. Brooke is doing some setting for us this year, too. She is very smart and a really good athlete.” The 5-9 Winckowski, an all-state track hurdler, is the Eagles’ top outside hitter. “We rely on her to get us kills,” Conley said. “She has real good leadership. She and Brooke are both potential Division I
volleyball players.” Ladd has stepped in this year as the Eagles’ second middle hitter and has done a good job so far, Conley said. “She’s maybe our best athlete,” he said. “She’s not too tall (5-5) but she jumps out of the gym. She has like a 24-inch vertical. Last year she lettered as a DS and got more and more time in the rotation as the season went along. This year she’s stepping into a much bigger role.” Mary Mottmiller, a 5-10 senior, is the Eagles’ first middle hitter. “She’s really stepping up in games,” Conley said. “She had a really good match against Northview and brings a lot of energy. She’s a good blocker who can put the ball away when we need it. We’re relying on her quite a bit this year.” Bailey Phillips, a 5-10 sophomore, saw some varsity action last season and will play a big role in Clay’s offense this year as a setter and outside hitter. “She’s a big part of our team,” Conley said. “We go in and out of a couple (offensive) systems, and Bailey has done a good job stepping into that second setter role and has a lot of potential as a hitter and blocker. Her setting, that’s where she projects the best at.” The rest of the roster includes junior DS Alexa St. Julian, sophomore middle hitter Maddie Vargyas and sophomore outside hitter/DS Hannah Kolinski. “Alexa has a great work ethic and a great motor,” Conley said. “This is her first year on varsity and she’s more of a backup for us, but she adds tremendously to our team chemistry and our work ethic. Maddie is a good athlete and is our second middle hitter. She’s playing well and is a smart hitter.” Conley said this year’s squad has the potential to be a force in the race for the TRAC championship. “We expect to be in the mix at the end,” he said. “We’re a little bit younger starting out than last year, and we hope we’re playing our best volleyball at the end of the season.”
Young Eagles still winning, but learning on the job By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Jeff Beck has been coaching volleyball for 14 years, and this is the youngest varsity team he’s ever had. The sixth-year Eastwood coach has six freshmen on the roster, and three of them are starting. The Eagles improved to 5-1 and 1-0 in the Northern Buckeye Conference on Tuesday night with a three-game sweep of visiting Genoa. Eastwood’s lone loss is to Arcadia. “This is the only team I’ve ever had with more than one freshman starter,” Beck said. “To say we are young is putting it mildly. This is a very talented group (of freshmen) and they’re learning how to deal with pressure. Coming from eighth-grade level volleyball to varsity is a drastic jump. They are handling the pressure better and better with every match, and the future looks bright.” Five letter winners return from last year’s team, which lost to top-seeded Central Catholic in the third round of the Division II district tournament. Three starters return in senior setter/right side hitter Jaci Juergens, junior libero Mackenzie Albright and junior outside hitter Bri Hoodlebrink. Juergens is a four-year starter and has been a first-team All-NBC and all-district setter for three consecutive years. “Jaci is doing a nice job of leading,” Beck said. “She really holds those freshmen under her wing and does a nice job coaching them during the match. Now she’s also hitting and it looks like she’s been hitting for three years, even though this is her first
Eastwood senior setter/right side hitter Jaci Juergens sets for senior middle hitter Morgan Getz (7) in the Eagle’s sweep over visiting Genoa Tuesday night.

She will do whatever it takes to compete and win.” Albright was a second-team allconference selection last season, while Hoodlebrink was named honorable men-

tion. “Mackenzie’s technique has improved so much this year,” Beck said. “As a coaching staff we want the ball to be in her hands. We feel very confident with her defense and her passing. Bri is getting better
with every match and is starting to develop into a go-to hitter.” The Eagles’ starting freshmen are outside hitter Katelyn Meyer, who leads the team in kills, 6-foot middle hitter Hannah Hodulik and setter/hitter Abby Schroeder. “They’ve played great,” Beck said. “They have come in and they’re confident. They’re not nervous and not scared. Technically, they are working on improving and playing at the varsity level. Nobody can say they should be playing on the jayvee, especially when Hannah is leading the team in blocks and Katelyn is leading the team in kills. They’re really jelling together as a team, no matter what their ages.” Eastwood’s other starter is senior middle hitter Morgan Getz. “She has just improved so much from last year,” Beck said. “She was our third middle last year and didn’t get a ton of playing time. This year she is literally our go-to hitter and has earned her position. As senior, it’s nice to see her hard work has paid off. She had 12 kills against Genoa, with one error, so it’s nice to see her shine right now.” Despite their youth, Beck said he believes the Eagles can be a player in the NBC title race. Otsego won the championship last year and Eastwood was second, after winning or sharing the previous four conference titles. “At the start of the year I knew we would not be the team picked to win the league, or be in second place,” Beck said. “With every match I gain so much confidence in these girls. They are not scared to compete. I just don’t think we can be overlooked. I’m having so much fun coaching these girls, watching the younger girls develop and watching the older girls lead.”

By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Lake girls soccer coach Don Jablonski is confident that the team he watched lose to St. Ursula Academy 4-0 on Monday isn’t the same Flyers team he’ll see the rest of the season. “Going into the St. Ursula game, it’s their name,� the second-year coach said. “St. Ursula brings fear because we’ve never beaten them. I think that was a lot of it, the confidence level. We watched the game film (Tuesday) night and it showed they weren’t any better than us. We made a few mistakes. We’ll go into training (Wednesday) night and start correcting that.� The Flyers, who took second in the Northern Buckeye Conference a year ago behind Woodmore, opened the season with a 2-1 win over Lima Shawnee and beat Otsego 9-0. Lake traveled to Genoa, which opened the season with a 4-0 win over Central Catholic, on Thursday. “We outshot Lima Shawnee 40-4,� Jablonski said. “We just couldn’t put the ball in the back of the net.� Lake finished 12-8 last season after losing to Maumee in the Division II district finals, and returns 19 letter winners — and 11 starters — in 2014. “I like the leadership from our senior class and their willingness to learn as a team,� Jablonski said. “We had three freshmen make the varsity this year who are going to be playing a lot.� Catie Phalen – a senior center-midfielder and team captain, led the team in goals last season with 13 (with four assists) while earning second-team All-NBC honors. “I expect her to be our leading scorer,� Jablonski said. “Her strength is her shooting ability. She can shoot with either foot.� Two other key returnees are NBC Most Valuable Player Jordyn Taylor, a senior center midfielder, and sophomore forward Kayla Saffran, a first-team all-conference pick. Taylor had a team-high 16 assists to go along with five goals a year ago. “Jordyn’s strength is her field vision,� Jablonski said. “That’s why she leads us in assists every year. Going into the season

she was only six assists away from becoming the school’s all-time leader. The team likes her, and she’s a good kid. She is the captain of the captains. “Kayla has good speed and good foot skills, and she has a very good mentality going to the goal. The sophomore kids look up to her. She’s very coachable.� Senior forward Alexis Hansen had four assists and was second on the team with 12 goals last season. “She’s predominantly left-footed and has decent speed,� Jablonski said. “This year she’s putting a little bit more effort into it. She’s working harder this year than last year.� The team’s third captain is senior defender Allison Terry, who was voted to the All-NBC first team as a junior. “She takes charge of the back,� Jablonski said. “She controls the defenders and keeps them organized. I like her leadership in the back.�

What I like about this team is these kids can play multiple positions.� Sophomore defender Angelica Aikman returns in a starting role, and sophomore Kaity Weis will get plenty of action off the bench. “We have good speed, but not blazing speed,� Jablonski said. “We play more as a team. We try to do our attack as a team, with 11 players. Our passing game is very important.� Jablonski added that the Flyers have set lofty goals this season. “We would not only like to win districts, but we would like to win the regional tournament to go to the final four,� he said. “I think we have the team to do that, if we stay healthy and we continue to learn like they have been learning.

People “Officer VanCleve is very deserving of the Mississippi Flyway Waterfowl Protection Officer of the Year Award,” said Kevin Newsome, Field Supervisor for the ODNR Division of Wildlife. “Ottawa County has some of the best waterfowl hunting in Ohio, and Reid takes his responsibility of enforcing waterfowl hunting regulations very seriously.” Van Cleve graduated the Wildlife Officer Training Academy in 2007 and has been the State Wildlife Officer assigned to Ottawa County since 2010. He is a native of Evansville. The Mississippi Flyway Council recognizes full-time law enforcement officers from each state, province and region, who make outstanding contributions to the protection of waterfowl. Officer Van Cleve was selected as the Ohio recipient this year. Officer Van Cleve’s hard work resulted in nearly 1,500 hunter and angler contacts in the field this past year. Many of the contacts were waterfowl hunters and Van Cleve logged 11 waterfowl related arrests, ranging from over-bag to shooting trumpeter swans, a state threatened species.

essage of the
The Bible tells us that our tongue is a small member of our body that can cause great damage. It compares it to a small fire that can set a forest ablaze. In the Bible, St. James tells us that if anyone can control their tongue, it proves that they have perfect control over themselves in every other way. He also tells us that sometimes our tongue praises our Heavenly Father, and sometimes it breaks out into curses against men who are made like God. Holding our tongue is not always an easy thing to do; however, we should try not to speak badly or spread rumors about others. Gossiping and spreading lies are

not good and often can prove quite harmful and hurtful. When we know of someone who is constantly speaking badly of others, we must realize that they are probably also rumoring about us when we are not around. There is nothing that reflects a person's character more than what they say and the way they speak about others. A good person is kind and truthful, and they can be trusted not to speak of the faults of others. God wants us to live in harmony with our friends and loved ones, and holding our tongue will help us to develop a Godly relationship. My brethren, this ought not to be so. R.S.V. James 3:10

Your Services Change, Your Prices Change, Why Does Your Yellow Page Ad Stay The Same? An ad should be flexible... Like your business. Not chiseled in stone like a stagnant yellow page ad. So consider this... 1: With cell phones, caller i.d., internet directories, search engines and competing phone books there is less reason to go to a phone book with your ad in it. On the other hand, you have The Press in your hands just like your potential customers living or working in 33,892 homes and businesses in your market area. For less than $21 a week, you can reach them in The Press Expert Section. 2: You can frequently change the size and copy of your ad in The Press to advertise seasonal offers, special prices, new products & new services. 3: Each lively issue of The Press is full of news, information and features from 20 towns and their surrounding areas in Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky and Wood Counties. More than 475 businesses and individuals use The Press each week to sell goods and services. For more information, call the classified department
