Mercy to open health center at Clay

“

We also know that your child’s health is always a top priority. ents. Oregon School officials say the project will be cost neutral over its scope. The district will make some initial facility upgrades with those costs recouped through the lease agreements with Mercy. The health center, which will have its own entrance separate from the high school, will offer a variety of day and evening hours. “With our busy schedules today, fitting in an appointment at your primary care office for wellness or illness visits can be difficult,” Gregory’s letter states. “We also know that your child’s health is always

a top priority.” Gregory says a child will not be seen without a parent’s prior consent. Mercy will accept both self-pay patients and those with insurance. Besides normal primary care and physicals, the center will also have the ability to perform immunizations. Sexton’s original idea School nurse practitioner Cherie Sexton will be joined at the center by a Mercy clerical staff member. It was originally Sexton’s vision. “The original idea happened maybe five, six, even seven years ago with our nurse, Cherie Sexton,” Gregory said. “It’s always been a dream of hers to have a schoolbased health center, but funding and partnerships were always a tough sell. There was lots of money years ago, but those got sucked up and stopped.” It helped that Mercy already had an established relationship with Clay’s athletic programs. Door 25 is on the back end of the high school, near the main entrance to Clay Memorial Stadium. “I think it started with our involvement with them with their athletes and our sports medicine group,” said Mercy

Mercy Medical Partners and Oregon City Schools are forming a unique partnership to open a health care center on the Clay High School campus. Inside the high school’s Door 25, 1,500 square feet is being converted into Mercy Health Center at OCS. The center, staffed by a nurse practitioner, will open its door to pediatric patients on Nov. 11 and be available to students and the public 20 hours per week. Oregon school officials say the primary purpose is to keep students in class or be able to return to them to class as quickly as possible after being seen by a pediatric nurse, reducing student absenteeism. Other programming will go along with the center. “To keep our students and community vigorous and strong, we will offer wellness talks by Mercy specialists, school physicals in addition to pediatric health services. Together, we will work to create a healthier school system and a healthier community,” OCS Assistant Superintendent Hal Gregory wrote in a letter sent to the district’s par-

The theft of ducks and Guinea fowl from her Sandusky County home has left Louise Linke more than a little perplexed. She estimates someone came to her and her husband’s farm on County Road 2 during the afternoon of Oct. 3 while she was running errands and her husband was at work and removed four Guinea fowl and four brown ducks from a cage behind a shed. “It had to be someone who knew our vehicles and knew my husband and I were both gone,” she said. Even more perplexing, whoever took the birds left $60 in the latch of the door to their cage. However, none of the birds were for sale. Linke said she had purchased the Guinea fowl about three months ago and the ducks shortly before then. Two younger Guineas weren’t taken. “I want them back regardless of them ‘paying’ me or not. It’s right by our driveway so I’m hoping someone may have driven by and saw them,” Linke said. “I’m tempted to put a sign out front that this is not a “Stop and Shop.’” The matter even surprised a deputy of the Sandusky County Sheriff’s Department when Linke filed a crime report. “He said he’d been a deputy sheriff for many years and this was the first time he’s seen someone take birds and actually leave money,” Linke said.” I said it kind of threw me for a loop too.” The $60 doesn’t cover the amount she spent for all the birds. Of the Guinea fowl, two were lavender, one was white and one was pearl. Linke describes the pearl as actually a light blue with white dots. “I had been looking and looking for lavenders for a while and finally found a lady who is retiring from the poultry business and she had them for sale,” Linke said. “I bought all that she had.” Agriculture literature describes Guinea fowl as a natural solution to garden pest problems. “Having a few Guinea fowl graze your property may be just the solution. Guinea fowl are natural grazers as they will eat

Mercy opens Continued from front page

Not a clinic Although Mercy officials refer to it as a ‘clinic,’ Oregon school officials do not like the word. “First of all, we want to be real clear that it’s not a clinic,” Oregon Supt. Dr. Lonny Rivera said. “It’s an insurancebased program like any other center for health. That whole ‘clinic’ thing has people spooked a little bit. “We also want to be very clear that this is something that is not costing the district money. This is something that generates enough revenue that it pays for the (Mercy’s) rent, and eventually could grow into something bigger that could help aid our students and provide more students

Medical Partners Director of Operations Jayne Beckstead. “Just in conversations with them, they had this idea of having this clinic within their school, so apparently this has been talked about by Cherie and the school system for quite a few years.” Oregon Schools started with a model used in southwest Ohio by Mason City Schools, which also has a health care center on campus. “Mason sent out RFPs, (Requests for Proposals) and they had the University of Cincinnati Hospitals and Apria Health Care, which at that time was in Middletown, and they bid on it and they ended up having a full-sized building and athletic turf that came with the package of athletic training and this health center for their students,” said Oregon Schools Director of Business Affairs Dean Sandwisch. “So, we did a similar thing here where we invited all the health care providers in our area, and we shared our dream and our vision, and Mercy Health came in and said, ‘Yeah, we want to come in and we want to do this.’ They were the only one that jumped forward and so we’ve been working on it ever since.” Oregon School officials add that ProMedica also showed an interest at a presentation, but for Mercy, the timing was right. Mercy public relations director Sarah Bednarski said, “There was a need, and when we evaluated it and we worked with the schools, we felt that we could address that need by creating this clinic. “The key for this is, obviously, it’s exciting for us and it’s a new model for care that you are seeing within Northwest Ohio. We take it as a positive and initially we will staff it about 20 hours a week. Obviously, based on need, it can be expanded, but we thought that 20 hours was a good place to start.”

in the community. That’s the point of all of this,” Rivera continued. “My goal is I’m looking for any way that we can supplement what we do to take the burden off our taxpayers. So, if I can make partnerships with local industry, with health care partners to help us pay for services for kids, I’m going to try anything I can because funding is drying up. If there are ways to do things differently, that’s what I want to do to help benefit the kids in our community. “We’re trying to innovate for our community and we’re looking at different ways to do business. Again, the operative word is

how do we create a more successful environment for our kids and for our community? That’s the whole point of this. If it didn’t have a benefit, we wouldn’t be doing it.” If the health center is successful, both Mercy and Oregon School officials say it could be expanded to include care for adults and mental health care. “It has to be profitable for Mercy and it has to certainly be beneficial for the school district, and if so, that’s a win-win,” Gregory said. “One of the things we want to do eventually is expand it to adults in the near future, and that would mean we would need a family practitioner who could handle it all. “Then, we want to, somewhere in the district not necessarily related to that (health care center), but build up our services for mental health for our students. I kind of want the public to know that we are forward-thinking of the needs of the community.” Mercy officials and school officials will meet quarterly throughout the school year to assess the impact of this program and evaluate the goals set forth by both Mercy Health and OCS.

Remembrance, Inc. honors Medal of Honor recipient Remembrance Inc., a historical society, will host a dinner on Nov. 2 at 6 p.m. honoring Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient Michael Edwin Thornton, a Navy Seal Vietnam veteran, at the Radisson Hotel on the grounds of the University of Toledo Medical Center. Thornton was awarded the medal for saving the life of his senior officer, Lieutenant Thomas R. Norris, who also earned the Medal of Honor in an unrelated incident. Born on March 23, 1949, in Greenville, South Carolina, Thornton graduated from high school in 1967 and enlisted in the United States Navy later that year in Spartanburg. He served aboard destroyers as a gunner’s mate apprentice until November 1968, when he began Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training. Upon graduation, he was assigned to SEAL Team 1 and began a series of tours in southeast Asia which ran from Jan. 1, 1970, to December 1972. By the last quarter of 1972, U.S. involvement in the region had waned and Thornton, by then a Petty Officer, was one of only a dozen SEALs remaining in Vietnam. On Oct. 31 of that year, he participated in a mission to capture prisoners and gather intelligence from the Cua Viet River Base near the coast of Quang Tri Province, just south of the Demilitarized Zone. In addition to Thornton, the mission team consisted of another SEAL, Lieutenant Thomas R. Norris, and three men from the LDNN, the South Vietnamese Special Forces. Approaching by sea, the group was transported by junk until sunset, then paddled a rubber boat to within a mile of shore and swam the remaining distance. Moving inland past numerous North Vietnamese encampments, the group reconnoitered through the night. When morning dawned, the five-man group realized that they had landed too far north and were actually in North Vietnam. They made their way toward the coast but were spotted by a group of 50 soldiers, beginning an intense five-hour battle. When the group’s commander, Lieutenant Norris, was severely wounded, Thornton ran through heavy fire to res-

He then carried the unconscious Norris into the water and began swimming out to sea. When one of the LDNNs was wounded, Thornton supported him in the water as well. He swam with the two injured men for more than two hours before being picked up by the same junk which had dropped them off the night before. For these actions, Thornton was awarded the Medal of Honor. The medal was formally presented to him by President Richard Nixon during a ceremony at the White House on Oct. 15, 1973. The man Thornton rescued, Thomas Norris, survived his wounds and was awarded the Medal of Honor from President Gerald R. Ford in a White House ceremony on March 6, 1976 for his April 1972 rescue of Lt. Col. Iceal Hambleton and 1st Lt. Mark

Clark from behind enemy lines. In 1980, Thornton was chosen by Commander Richard Marcinko to be a founding member of SEAL Team Six, the U.S. Navy’s first unit dedicated to counterterrorism. Thornton later became a commissioned officer and retired as a Lieutenant. He currently sits on the board of advisors for Veterans Direct. Thornton received a commission in 1982 as a limited duty officer and retired as a lieutenant. (biography courtesy of the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and wikipedia.com) Tickets for the dinner are $50 and must be turned in by Oct. 24. Contact Nick Haupricht at 419-270-2655 or Hauprichtnick@gmail.com.

Ohio Veteran’s bonus deadline fast approaching The deadline for service members who served in Iraq to apply for the Ohio Veterans Bonus is Dec. 31. To be eligible, applicants must have served in Iraq between March 19, 2003 and Dec. 31, 2011.

Veterans medically discharged due to injuries sustained in-country can receive $1,000, plus up to $500 for months of service elsewhere. The bonus is not subject to federal or state taxes, and can be used for any purpose.

Family members of those killed in action or who died from disease as a result of their in-country service can receive a bonus of $5,000 plus whatever the service member was eligible for, up to a total of $6,500.

Indicted The Ottawa County Grand Jury indicted Mark W.

Wilson, who is currently being held in the Ottawa County Detention Facility, was indicted on multiple felony counts, including breaking and entering, theft and theft of drugs, after he allegedly entered a vehicle in Catawba Township last month.

Ohio Coalition unable to negotiate cheaper gas rates By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Northwest Ohio Aggregation Coalition (NOAC) has not approved a natural gas supplier for Oregon residents and other communities who are part of the group. NOACâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual contract with its previous supplier, IGS Energy, expired in April. As a result, consumers will revert back to Columbia Gas as their supplier, unless they independently negotiate rates with alternate natural gas companies. NOAC represents communities that have banded together to negotiate cheaper rates for electric and natural gas customers in Oregon, Northwood, Lake Township, Toledo, Lucas County, Sylvania, Maumee,

Perrysburg Township, Holland, and unincorporated areas of Lucas County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Northwest Ohio Aggregation Coalition has delivered lots of value to our rate payers over the course of the years,â&#x20AC;? Oregon Administrator Mike Beazley said to council at a committee of the whole meeting last Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an unfortunate aspect of deregulation in these industries that most people who have signed on with alternative [suppliers] have actually lost money than if they had done nothing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the case for those who have been with NOAC. Right now, one of the reasons the coalition has saved money for our rate payers is that NOACâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s consultant has advised that no action be taken unless there are savings avail-

able. So NOAC does not have a contract for this winter.â&#x20AC;? There are alternate suppliers going door to door recommending plans, according to Beazley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to our residents to decide which course they want to take. We urge strong caution, though. Doing nothing is still an option that is available. I have chosen that myself. There has not been a proposal worth signing onto. Doing nothing does not hurt our residents. But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think they should feel compelled to sign on with someone who is going door to door. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an easy decision for a household. It may be that it would save them money, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to know,â&#x20AC;? he said. Also at the meeting:

â&#x20AC;˘ Heard from Mayor Mike Seferian that the construction of a 95-unit Hampton Inn Hotel on Navarre Avenue is expected to be completed next year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are planning on opening next year. So I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to see a lot happening there in a very short time,â&#x20AC;? he said. The Hampton Inn recently held a grand opening for a new 105-unit hotel on Secor Road in Toledo. The hotel in Oregon will appear larger, he said, because it will be built closer to the road than the one off Secor Road. A marketing survey conducted by the developers showed â&#x20AC;&#x153;a definite need for that service in this area,â&#x20AC;? said Seferian.

Reporters win Touchstone Kelly J. Kaczala news editor at The Press, and Melissa A. Burden, a senior writer at The Press, won the Press Club of Toledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Touchstone award in the non-daily category for their stories that questioned the need for a proposed 0.5 percent senior levy in Oregon. Kaczala and Burden had uncovered information that showed campaign sup-

porters of the levy suggested that the money was needed for the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior center because the Area Office on Aging of Northwest Ohio, Inc., and the City of Oregon had cut its budget. They found that funding by the Area Office on Aging had been cut in previous years because the senior center had been underperforming and had not used all the monies allocated by the agency. The entry by The Press competed against four entries submitted by the Toledo City Paper. The Press Club of Los Angeles judged the entries. The Touchstone awards are presented annually to journalists in different categories after being nominated for making an outstanding contribution to Northwest Ohio through journalistic excellence or community service.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S SLEEP JUST AS YOU DO THEIR SAFETY

Sleep problems donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just effect a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nights, they disrupt their days too. Lack of sleep can cause your child to have learning delays and be hyperactive, less alert, easily distracted, physically impulsive, injured from increased falls, and overweight.

How much sleep time do they need?

Mercy Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital and Kohlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cares believe that fostering positive behaviors in health and nutrition will help children be healthier and happier. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve teamed up to offer parents and other caregivers practical advice on raising healthy children. Kohlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kids in Action is focused on four valuable steps that are important to better health: good nutrition, increased physical activity, proper water intake and good sleep habits. ts.

Long time Friend of Pearson to step down By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com

Model for ‘Friends’ groups Metroparks public relations director Scott Carpenter says Friends of Pearson has been a model for other “Friends” organiza-

“

Our attendance continues to decline and it’s difficult to get people to participate in our programming.

“

In 1991, Terry Jay Breymaier and wife Mary Nassar Breymaier were instrumental in the founding of Friends of Pearson — an organization that for nearly 25 years has been behind programming and the continued enhancement of 80-year-old Pearson Metropark. Terry, now 66, has been president ever since, including interim president for the last five years as the organization seeks out new leadership. Unfortunately, no one has come forward wanting to fill those leadership roles, and if it remains unfilled, the organization will vote on whether to disband at its November meeting. The Breymaiers want people to know that even though Terry may resign as president, he will stay involved. New volunteers just need to step forward. Membership is currently at about 55, but Terry says during the organization’s heyday, it was twice that number. “Our attendance continues to decline and it’s difficult to get people to participate in our programming,” Terry said. “The Friends of Pearson are struggling and if they can’t continue at the level that we’d like to continue at, we’re not going to continue, and that’s it. I keep telling people, I’m still a member and I’ll still stay very active.” Terry is proud of what the organization has accomplished over nearly a quarter of a century. “We’ve been able to make some very significant contributions to that park, both monetarily and with sweat equity, and I hate to see that not continue to happen and cease,” Terry said.

tions at other parks. Within the Metroparks system, Sidecut Park has its own “Friends” group modeled after Pearson’s. Outside the system, the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge also has its own “Friends” group. Carpenter said Friends of Pearson played a significant role in the expansion of the park into Pearson North. This $1 million recreated swamp has been sculpted and funded by the Ohio Wetlands Foundation. Friends of Pearson planted more than 102,900 indigenous trees and shrubs. The foundation also created shallow pools, relocated the ditch that ran alongside Wynn Road, and added a small pond. “The Metroparks acquired it, which was the fulfillment of a decades-long dream. We had money set aside for many years,” Carpenter said. “Certainly developing it into what it is today would not have happened without the support of Friends of Pearson and others that Friends of Pearson helped to bring in to the cause.” Another significant role played by Friends of Pearson was the development of the Window on Wildlife at the Packersmith Center. “The care they put into it, too,” Carpenter said. “BP donated to help make that renovation happen, but without the ongoing support of ‘The Friends’ — the main-

tenance, the upkeep of it, I don’t know if it would have been as attractive to a potential donor.” Terry, a direct descendant of the Peter Navarre family, added, “The Window on Wildlife, we’re very proud of that. I don’t think there is a better one in the system. Prior to us, we really didn’t have programming to this scale, like the Black Swamp Festival or Ice Cream Social, or the Sunday Series in March that we do, or even the George Pearson Pancake Breakfast. I mean, we have a ball doing that. I don’t know if the park system will pick that up or not.” Volunteerism changing Carpenter also hopes new leadership will step in to fill the leadership void left by the Breymaiers. Terry, a retired funeral home director, recently moved with his wife to a new home near Oak Harbor, about 25 miles from the park, which creates another obstacle for them. “We certainly appreciate all of the work that Terry has done over the years,” Carpenter said. “Beyond the fundraising, they’ve been kind of the soul of the park as well — the eyes and ears and advocates for the park. They are caretakers in a lot of ways. We’re sorry to see Terry step down from that role, but he’s done such a great job and we certainly understand. He’s done plenty and continues to.”

Carpenter says the Metroparks have had to change their focus on how to attract volunteers. He says the system currently has about 3,000 volunteers registered in its data base. “Volunteers are just going great, but it’s been changing and we’ve tried to change a bit,” Carpenter said. “I do know groups like ‘Friends’ groups have struggled, not just at Pearson, but at other places. Historical groups will tell you that historical museums have had a challenge getting and keeping volunteers as well. There are volunteers, but it is a different emphasis these days.” Terry still volunteers as a member of the Metroparks’ volunteer trail patrol and the Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist Program. “Those programs are going great and episodic volunteers, those who come out for a one day event, that is going great,” Carpenter said. “People just seem to be choosing how they spend their time just a little differently. It is sometimes hard these days to get folks, especially younger folks, to sit on boards and sit on meetings. They want to get out and do things. So, it’s just the volunteer spirit is still there, the interests are different.” If new leadership is not found and Friends of Pearson shuts down, Carpenter hopes its membership will not go away. “We would be very sad to see that organization shut down,” Carpenter said. “We would understand, though. There are seasons for everything, and if the group itself decides it’s time has come, we would welcome them to be involved in other ways. I don’t think Terry and Mary are going to go far because they are so involved in so many things. “If there is interest in continuing the programming that they have done, we would certainly consider it in the midst of everything. We have been more involved in recent years in events like the Black Swamp Festival, so we are prepared to do that.”

Wood County voters to decide an array of tax issues By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com

“

We wanted to eliminate being on the ballot so often.

“

Emphasizing that it is not seeking a tax increase, the board of education of the Lake Local School District in November will again ask voters to convert a tax levy from a term issue to a continuing issue. Lake voters on Nov. 4 will decide a 6.75-mill renewal issue that generates about $1.4 million annually for the district’s operational costs, including salaries and benefits. Originally passed in 2012 as a 3-year issue, the district is asking voters to renew it as a continuing measure. Jeff Carpenter, district treasurer, said the board and administration began almost 10 years ago seeking voter approval of converting term issues into continuing to avoid “voter fatigue.” “That’s been our strategy. At that time we were on the ballot about every 18 months. We wanted to eliminate being on the ballot so often. This way, if we do go

on the ballot for new money it’s not to be confused with renewal requests. We put this levy on because we had about $1.5 million in federal, state and local funding cuts and had to replace that revenue.” In addition to passing the levy that is up for renewal, the district in 2012 enacted an austerity program that reduced spending by approximately $1.2 million, including laying off 10 teachers and administrators, 12 classified employees; closing Walbridge Elementary School and reducing the kindergarten program from all-day, everyday classes to half days. Carpenter describes the district as now

being in “equilibrium.” “We’re not at the present time deficit spending, but we have no cash reserve cushion. This is not a new tax. So, if you take away the 6.75 mills, we’re in trouble again,” he said. Other Wood County villages and townships are also placing tax levies on the November ballot, the majority being renewal issues: • Lake Township is seeking renewal of a 1-mill, 5-year used for fire department expenses. Vicki Schwamberger, township fiscal officer, said the levy generates $223,860 a year. The fire department also relies on a continuing levy (voted in 1990) of 2 mills that generates $304,635 a year. • Freedom Township is asking voters to renew a 3-mill levy for Emergency Medical Service and the fire department that generates approximately $180,952 annually. Dave Gerwin, fiscal officer, said no new major expenditures are planned but the department does plan to update its radios and turnout gear.

• Troy Township is asking voters to renew a 0.8-mill, 5-year levy for the township’s operating expenses. Voters in the unincorporated area of the township will also vote on a 1-mill, 3-year replacement levy for the police department. A replacement levy is based on current property valuations instead of the valuation when the levy was first approved. • The Village of Luckey is seeking renewal of a 1.9-mill, 5-year levy for operating expenses. • The Wood County District Public Library, which has branches in Bowling Green and Walbridge, is seeking renewal of a 0.8-mill, 6-year levy for operating expenses. • The Pemberville Public Library, which has branches in the villages of Pemberville and Luckey and in Stony Ridge, is seeking renewal of a 0.8-mill, 5-year levy. • Voters in two precincts of the Village of Pemberville - 5-D and 5-E - will decide liquor options for Sunday sales. •Voters will decide a 1.6-mill, 10-year renewal levy for the Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services Board.

At $105 a ton, road salt a relative bargain for Lake Twp. By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com

“

One option they discussed but declined in August was to buy it at more than $134 a ton.

“

At a price of more than $100 a ton, it’s hard for governmental ofﬁcials to consider road salt a bargain. However, considering one option they discussed but declined in August was to buy it at more than $134 a ton, the Lake Township trustees Tuesday reluctantly agreed to buy 200 tons at a price of $21,050 - $105.25 per ton. To facilitate the purchase, the trustees approved a transfer of $19,000 from a contingencies fund to a fund for operating supplies for roads. Dan McLargin, road supervisor, told the trustees the new supply would increase the township’s stockpile to about 600 tons. Last winter, the road department went through about 700 tons, he said. “We have to keep our people safe,” Melanie Bowen, chairman of the trust-

ees, said, adding the high price will probably result in the trustees having to reduce

On Tuesday, McLargin said ODOT was able to negotiate a lower price from a company in Indiana. In other business Tuesday, the trustees met in executive session to discuss discipline of a road department employee but took no action. The trustees also approved a motion to set trick or treat time in the unincorporated area of the township on Oct. 30 from 6:30-8 p.m. Walbridge Village Council had previously set that time to avoid having it during a Lake High School home football game on Friday Oct. 31. Bowen said she felt it was important to have the township on the “same page” with Walbridge and Village of Millbury. Trustee Jeff Pettit said he didn’t think it was necessary to move the time from Oct. 31 but trustee Richard Welling made a motion to adopt the Oct. 30th time. He and Bowen voted for the motion and Pettit voted no.

spending elsewhere. McLargin said his department will be stockpiling a supply of small stone to augment the salt supply but it can’t be used on all roads. He told the trustees the salt can be purchased in increments starting Jan. 1. Two months ago, after hearing the price it would cost to buy salt through the Ohio Department of Transportation bidding process, the trustees approved a motion to not participate in the program. McLargin informed the trustees then it would cost townships and municipalities in Wood County $134.82 a ton for salt if ODOT agreed to purchase from Morton Salt, Inc., which was the only company to submit a bid to the department. ODOT had sought a total of 20,000 tons for the eight counties in its District 2, including 4,500 tons for Wood County. The township had paid a little more than $32 a ton early this year when it replenished its supply.

Electrical rates going up in Oak Harbor

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press

If we want to do a major project, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even have the matching funds.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

The cost of turning on your lights is going up in Oak Harbor Jan. 1. Village council Monday directed its village solicitor, James Barney, to ready legislation to phase in a rate hike over the next three years: 2 percent for 2015, 2 percent for 2016 and 1 percent for 2017. The first of three readings will take place at the regular meeting Oct. 20. Village leaders, on the advice of consultants Courtney & Associates, are hoping to fend off a plunge into red ink forecasted in the electrical fund if rates arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t increased. The consultants had suggested a single 5 percent increase. The utilities committee of council debated a 5 percent increase versus the 2-2-1 package suggested by Village Administrator Randy Genzman. The committee recommendation had its backers but the phased in approach won out. Mayor Bill Eberle noted that a 5 percent increase in one shot was cheaper for residents in the long run compared to the other approach. The first increase is 2 percent upon the current rate, he said. However, the second 2 percent compounds upon that sum and then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the final 1 percent on top of that. In the end, â&#x20AC;&#x153;That amounts to more than 5 percent,â&#x20AC;? he contended. Councilwoman Sue Rahn and Genzman, however, championed the phased-in price hike on the premise that residents didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to stomach the increase in one fell swoop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a lot of seniors living here,â&#x20AC;? Rahm said. Yet, talk of utility rate hikes isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done. Sewer and water rates are also being scrutinized. Councilman Jon Fickert pointed out that the sewer rate study suggested council leave the sewer fees alone. However, at current rates, revenue is barely covering costs. Councilmembers argue revenues are insufficient to meet the needs of a village on the verge of some major sewer projects necessary to stop overflow problems that have caused flooding in a number of residential homes and businesses. Genzman agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have enough but not nearly enough. If we want to do a major project, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even have the matching

funds.â&#x20AC;? Both Fickert and Councilman Jim Seaman also noted that the Ottawa Regional Water System, which supplies the village water, increased its rates but that those price jumps were not passed onto the residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To the tune of about $50,000,â&#x20AC;? Seaman said. Given the intense talk on finances and pending utility hikes, Councilman Don Douglas asked council to revisit his idea suggested at the first of the year to alter the income tax credit. Currently, the village collects a 1 percent income tax from village residents who live and work in the village. People who live in the village but work in communities where another tax is collected are exempt from the tax right now. Douglas proposes three options: hike the tax, reduce the credit or eliminate the credit completely. He asked council Monday to direct Barney to prepare legislation regarding the tax credit changes and address it at the Oct. 20 or Nov. 3 meetings. Fickert refused to act on the issue while a park levy hangs in the balance because he did not want the community to perceive it as a threat. Others agreed.

be dropped off at homes from Oak Ridge Drive to the fairgrounds where the testing will take place. The documents will explain what residents should look for during the testing and who to contact if they detect a problem, Genzman said. Kayak giveaway Raffle tickets are being sold throughout the community for a kayak giveaway that benefits the Oak Harbor Development Group, formerly known as the Oak Harbor Downtown Revitalization Implementation Committee. The group has been overseeing a downtown revitalization effort that includes working with the village to install docks off Church Street along the Portage River that have attracted kayaking groups. The winner will be announced during the Oak Harbor Apple Festival. Mike Shadoan, head of the group, appeared at council Monday to inform council about the kayak drawing as well as some other committee news. The group has created a Facebook Page that has more than 400 followers and has reached 4,000 people, Shadoan said. The membership has also created a pamphlet that helps explain the group and its goals. Park levy support Resident Joe Helle volunteered to lead a community committee in support of the upcoming park levy in the village on Nov. 4. Issue 7 is a 3-mill, five-year levy dedicated to the upkeep of village park services. The Oak Harbor park system includes Veterans Memorial Park, Flat Iron Park and Kraemer Park. Combined, they cover more than 25 acres and include activities for little league baseball, football, tennis, basketball, sand volleyball, skateboarding and batting cages. The levy would cost the owner of a $100,000 about $105, according to figures provided by the Ottawa County Auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. By law, the village is not allowed to use tax dollars to promote the levy, according to Genzman. The effort has to be driven by individuals of the community. Helle, who came to council to discuss another issue, said he takes his child to the park regularly and feels that the park is under-utilized and not always cared for with the best effort.

Reductions for vets On Sept. 11, the Ohio Legislature signed into law increased reductions in the Homestead reduction program for any U.S. armed service veterans who have received a 100 percent permanent total disability rating. There is no income requirement for this new veteran homestead benefit. The reduction will equal the tax on the first $50,000 of true value (which is twice the existing homestead benefit of $25,000). A qualifying veteran must submit written confirmation from the Federal Department of Veterans Affairs of the disability rating. The surviving spouse of a qualifying veteran may continue to receive the tax reduction benefit for life or until remarriage. Questions about both programs may be directed to Wood County Auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office at 419-354-9173, toll free at 866-860-4140, ext. 9173 or via email at kgodwin@co.wood.oh.us.

Investing in children To the editor: I am proud of what we are accomplishing at Oregon City Schools. I am proud of the culture of caring that we are fostering in each of our buildings. Our administration, teachers, support staff, coaches, parents and volunteers, aren’t just putting in their time; they are here because they care about results for each child. As a lifelong resident of Jerusalem Township and the city of Oregon, I cannot express how honored I am to have this opportunity to serve this community. It is also with a humble heart that I ask for your support on Nov. 4. I am asking for a five-year emergency 5.9 mill levy, not because I want to increase spending, but provide the best education possible to our students. Even if this levy passes, we will be spending less than we were seven years ago. The passage of this levy will enable us to continue providing high quality programming to the students of Oregon and Jerusalem Township. Because I believe in accountability, this levy will not be permanent, as it will need to be renewed after five years. I believe that our voters need to have more say in where their tax dollars are spent, and they need to have the ability to say no if we fail to meet our obligations to our students and the community. Working together with our teachers, administrators, coaches, and support staff, we have succeeded in lowering costs year after year while collecting less from our residents than the districts that we compete with. To keep Oregon and Jerusalem Township competitive, we need to continue to invest in our children. Communities with successful schools are attracting new families, preserving property values, and moving forward. Please support our schools by voting yes on Issue 4. Dr. Lonny J. Rivera Oregon City Schools Superintendent

Libraries boost literacy To the editor: In 2012, Gov. John Kasich proclaimed October as Information Literacy Month and Ohio joined 18 other states in an endeavor to raise awareness about what it means to be information literate. His proclamation set out to “remind all citizens of the importance of the role of all libraries and librarians – academic, public, school and special – in teaching information literacy.” Eric Schmidt, executive chairman of Google said, “Every two days, we create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2003. That’s something like five exabytes of data.” So when you receive an email or a Facebook post that baby carrots are made from deformed full-size carrots soaked in chlorine and that’s why they turn white, how do you discern the truth of the statement? That is information literacy. It is the ability to identify what information is needed, understand how the information is organized, identify the best sources of information for a given need, locate those sources, evaluate the sources critically and then share the information. As with everything from learning to play the drums to executing the perfect foul shot, developing information literacy skills takes practice. In Ohio’s K-12 schools, our children at most will acquire 2,300 hours of practice – not nearly enough to prepare them to be college career- and future-ready. Do you know why? Because the teachers who are best prepared to teach these critical skills are the school librarians and

in Ohio, more than a quarter of a million students do not have access to a licensed school librarian. Today’s students need to be able to evaluate sources critically and share with the rest of the world. Working collaboratively with your child’s subject-area teachers, school librarians will help your son and daughter navigate the digital world ethically, and by so doing, your child will be college and career ready. Cheryl Hicks Library Aide, Lake Middle School Library

Levy support urged To the editor: There have been many good things that have happened to the Genoa Area Local School District in the past few years. For example, a previous school board was able to purchase the 60-acre farm adjacent to the high school at a fair market value. The administration was able to obtain a state grant which helped pay for remodeling and building new school buildings. A dedicated athletic booster club was able to donate money and time to build athletic facilities which are second to none in Northwest Ohio. A dedicated and caring staff teaches our children from preschool through precollege. Our high school was recently recognized as one of the best in the nation. We have lived in this community long enough to see our high school graduates succeed in every field imaginable, such as the service sector, skilled trades, farming, medicine, teaching, military service, law enforcement including lawyers and prosecutors, science, small and big business, engineering, the clergy and professional athletics. The list could go on and on. Our students have graduated and become successful citizens. Our school board and administrators have been very frugal in the management of our tax money. One of the most unfortunate things, however, is that the State of Ohio has consistently reduced the monetary support of our schools in recent years. Because of the continued loss of state revenues, the school districts that have citizens who are willing to stand up and to provide local support are the ones that are going to succeed in the near future. We would like to see our schools continue to be a part of a great district. Will you please stand united with us in support of the school levy so we can continue to have a school district we are all proud of? Rosemary and Richard Jones Williston

Strong library To the editor: As principal and administrator of Ottawa County Christian Academy, I ask for our community’s support in seeing the levy proposal for the Oak Harbor Public Library be approved on Nov. 4. Voting “yes” will ensure that it receives the proper funding to provide high-quality service to our community. In its 106-year history, the OHPL has never sought local support through levies. Currently, the library receives 94 percent of its funding through the Public Library Fund from the State of Ohio and the amount it receives has not been increased in nearly 20

years. As you can imagine, cost of materials and upgrades in an ever-growing field of technology requires much more funding. In the past five years, funding has dropped 30 percent due to cuts and overall state of the economy. A “yes” vote will give the library financial stability, restore more hours of operation and increase library material purchases. It will also ensure necessary building maintenance. Our small Christian school relies on the services the OHPL offers. We make weekly trips so our students can enjoy everything the library has to offer. We also utilize their technology to further educate our students. It is a resource we esteem valuable to our students. A strong community depends on individual sacrifice; but it is hardly a sacrifice. A yes vote means a mere $35 per year for the owner of a home with an assessed value of $100,000. Surely, bettering our community is worth that small price tag. Jeremy Bickelhaupt Administrator/Principal Ottawa County Christian Academy

Still waiting To the editor: Walbridge mayor Ed Kolanko sent an email request on Aug. 21 to Congressman Bob Latta to visit as a guest during a village council meeting to address the algal bloom issues in Lake Erie. The message said the mayor had a resident request Rep. Latta attend a council meeting to discuss what is being done to alleviate the algal issue. In response, a member of the congressman’s staff in his Bowling Green office replied, saying she would check with the congressman’s scheduler. Mayor Kolanko replied within minutes, informing the staff member the meetings are held on the first and third Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. and asked to be told ahead of time if the congressman would attend so the mayor could put the visit on the council schedule. The entire exchange of emails took place the afternoon of Aug. 21. It is now October and there is no further response from Rep. Latta’s office. I guess our small community doesn’t deserve a visit from our representative in congress. Apparently it only gets his attention when he can come to our meeting to tell us how much he has accomplished. That would take about three minutes. He certainly doesn’t want to answer any questions that might affect his re-election. Joann Schiavone Walbridge

An important resource To the editor: On the Nov. 4 ballot, there will be a renewal levy to support the Wood County District Public Library. The Wood County Library has been very frugal in the ways that they have used the money generated by the tax. The Library Committee has used the money generated by this tax to remodel both the Bowling Green and the Walbridge libraries, extend hours in Walbridge, buy new materials, and add services. Libraries are a very important resource, especially in these days of electronic communication. The library offers not only physical books to check out but also e-books and magazines, Internet access, music, movies, audio books, Hoopla (an Android

application available with a library card) and computer access for those without a computer. Computers are an important resource, especially for students in all grades doing research for papers and projects. In Walbridge, we have a children’s storytime every week for preschoolers and a computer game night once a month for the older kids. In order to continue all these services at their present level we need to pass this levy. Remember, this is not a new tax; it is a renewal. Kathy Raglow Walbridge

Election policy The Press encourages responses to articles and opinions. In order to provide for fair comment, The Press will have the following policy covering election letters to the editor: The last issue for letters regarding the Nov. 4 general election will be the second issue (Oct. 27) before the election. No letters will be published in the issue immediately prior (Nov. 3) to the election except for letters limited to direct rebuttal of election-related matters appearing in the Oct. 27 paper. No new political information can be introduced in the issue immediately before the election. This is to prevent inaccuracies without a fair chance for correction. Letters are limited to ballot issues. The Press does not print letters about candidates’ races. Letters should be no more than 300 words and include a phone number and address for verification purposes. No anonymous letters will be printed. The deadline is Wednesday, Noon. Send to The Editor, c/o The Press, Box 169, Millbury, OH 43447 or e-mail to news@presspublications.com.

Big Band Sound

October, 2004 News: “How does a man in a cave outcommunicate the greatest communications nation?” Richard Holbrooke, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and a member of President Bill Clinton’s cabinet, asked that probing question before he sat down to lunch at the Navy Bistro in East Toledo. Holbrooke met with The Press for an exclusive interview arranged by State Representative Peter Ujvagi. Holbrooke said the Iraqis need to control their destiny. “You have to get the Shiites, the Kurds and the Sunnis to work together,” he said. The bigger problem is that there are one billion Muslims against us and we have no policy to deal with it other than force, he said. What’s missing in today’s approach is trying to understand the Muslim world. “No one in the administration has even tried to understand this issue. What drives people to kill themselves or sympathize with the killers? Why do people name their kids Osama? How does a man in a cave out communicate the world’s greatest communications nation? Why is the message of tolerance and diversity being defeated by a medieval mass murderer whose goal is to return the Muslim world to a 14th century caliph?” Holbrooke also offered his thoughts on Afghanistan. “I was real critical of letting the war lords come back. I think it was a real mistake to let Osama Bin Laden escape when we had him pinned in the mountains of Tora Bora. These war lords are also drug lords. The first thing to do is get rid of the war lords. They are thugs. They gave rise to the Taliban in 1995-96. And, if they remain in power you will never have a strong central government and the Taliban will have a cause,” he said. Under the Taliban there was no opium production. But, since the war lords have returned, Afghanistan is the major opium producer in the world, he said. Getting rid of opium is a very difficult problem. We need to build roads so that farmers can get time-sensitive crops to market to make a living. Opium is a crop of choice because

of the revenue and the fact it isn’t time sensitive. You can haul it out on donkeys, he added. Sports: The Clay volleyball team, 18-4, took to the road to beat Huron, the state’s

October, 1994 News: Lt. Bob Bratton of the Ottawa County Sherriff’s department appeared before millions of viewers watching America’s Most Wanted in an effort to locate the nanny who allegedly bilked a Perrysburg Township couple out of $80,000. The program produced 110 calls and before Bratton could track down the leads, a clerk at a motel in Bowling Green, Virginia called to say the nanny, Diane Conrad, had checked into his motel. She was quickly arrested and, tragically, eight hours later, she died of a heart attack at the Hanover County Jail. Conrad, who had used numerous aliases including Diane Chambers, had scammed couples across the country. A local woman, the last known victim, first told her story to The Press and sent the story to America’s Most Wanted.

Life, just like the weather, is filled with plenty of changes Everyone has their favorite type of weather. When the conditions are favorable, they are happy. During inclement weather they are not. Regardless of whether or not you like the current weather conditions, the weather always changes with time. You can’t change the weather. Complaining about it accomplishes nothing. All you can do is be prepared for and deal with the current conditions. Having contingency plans is good planning. You may not like the rain, but an umbrella or raincoat certainly helps. Life works the same way; conditions fluctuate and may be unpredictable. Everything flows in cycles. Change is the only constant. Being prepared for the unexpected enhances your chances of success. Tough times do occur. There will be circumstances you don’t like. The unpredictable happens. Just like the weather, situations fluctuate. Although you don’t have any impact on the weather, you do play a role in the direction your life takes. Complaining about your circumstances is just as ineffective as complaining about the weather.

Identify a problem once, and then spend your effort discovering the appropriate action you should take in order to rectify or mitigate the situation. Plan ahead. Prepare yourself for the unexpected.

formulate contingency plans to deal with them. Have alternative courses of action ready to put into place if needed. Don’t fixate on what might go wrong, just be prepared if something does. For example, prudent boaters wear life jackets. They don’t head out on the water expecting their boat will sink. They don’t give up boating because there are situations where boats have sunk. They are prepared for the unlikely scenario that they might encounter on the water. Learn from your past. Take note of what worked and what didn’t. Avoid failed strategies while repeating successful ones. Good or bad, every experience has something valuable to teach you. Experience is only wasted when you learn nothing from it. Don’t become stuck in adverse circumstances. Tough times don’t last but tough people do. A tough person proactively strives to make the best of a situation, rather than passively waiting for conditions to improve. Take responsibility for your direction. Blaming other people or circumstances prevents you from moving forward. Whining

and complaining accomplishes nothing. Analyze your situation and then make the best decisions you can based on the information you have at hand. Then take action based on your decision. Life is filled with challenges. As much as it would be wonderful to experience only great weather, it doesn’t happen. However, your thoughts, attitude, and actions do impact the circumstances you attract. A positive, can do attitude is a potent tool that helps you get through tough times. Successful people become experts at finding solutions for the problems they encounter. They don’t lament the past. They never throw up their arms in despair. They always move forward, one step at a time, no matter what circumstances they are faced with. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www. BryanGolden.com or your bookstore.

Counseling Corner Don’t let anger control your life From the American Counseling Association For most of us, our daily lives include a lot of stress and tension. There’s that morning traffic jam, the supervisor who never appreciates us, the kids’ latest problems, the news reports of terrorism reports, bad economic news and local crimes. Unfortunately, for many people, daily stress and tension can build to the point that it only takes one small incident for them to explode, letting their anger get out of control. Experts say anger is the most poorlymanaged emotion in our society, with as many as one in five Americans having an anger control problem. Not being able to manage one’s anger is a major cause of conflicts in both professional and personal relationships. Is anger a problem for you? One way to judge how well you control your anger is to consider whether you’ve ever, during an argument, raised your voice, broken something, pushed, slapped or physically hurt someone, embarrassed yourself, or felt out of control. If any of those apply, consider these actions to help you better manage your anger. A starting point is accepting responsibility for your anger. Anger may be triggered by someone else, but it’s you who lets it happen and grow out of control. It’s also important to recognize the beginning signs of anger. Anger is easier to control when it is still at a low level. Try to identify the cause of your anger. It isn’t someone else, but rather something within you, emotional or psychological from your past, that’s usually the real source of your anger. And when anger does occur, learn to focus on the situation or behavior making you angry, rather than the other person. Criticizing or name-calling doesn’t resolve a problem but merely escalates it. Rather than putting the other person on the defensive and raising the conflict level, use “I” statements to talk about what you’re feeling and experiencing. When anger controls you it can make your life miserable, lead to very real problems and even affect your health. If your anger is sometimes out of control, consider an anger management course (see your local hospital or mental health center), or consulting a professional counselor offering anger management help.

Plaque lauds work of chaplain and therapy dog By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor. twalro@presspublications.com As she walks through the corridors at Mercy St. Charles Hospital on a recent afternoon, Rev. Sherry Schermbeck is greeted warmly by many hospital staff members she encounters. “Hi! How are you?” “Hey, nice to see you,” they say. Schermbeck, who retired last November after more than 22 years serving as the hospital chaplain, was well known for the faith, the compassion and a healthy dose of humor she brought to her job. For more than half her career at St. Charles, she shared her mission with her partner…a tiny dog who had a big impact on the people she encountered during her 40-hour work week. Gracie, whose registered name was “God’s Amazing Grace,” joined the St. Charles staff in April 2002. For more than 11 years, she came to work every day with Schermbeck. She was paid with countless loving pats on the head and, scratches behind the ear and she had the uncanny ability to know where in the hospital to go to get a Milk Bone treat. She was at work when she became ill Sept. 21, 2013. She died later that day. The pair’s dedication and service has been commemorated by a plaque donated by Eggleston-Meinert-Pavley Funeral Home. St. Charles administration decided to hang the plaque in the corridor near the hospital chapel. The special dog-shaped plaque features a photo of Sherry and Gracie and the tribute, “They both brought smiles & healing to patients, visitors and staff. They loved and were loved.” Eyeing the plaque, Schermbeck lauded the hospital’s administration for allowing her to bring a therapy dog to St. Charles. “ “It was a forward-thinking idea in 2002,” she said. “Although other facilities were allowing therapy dogs to visit with their volunteer owners, I believe Mercy St. Charles was the only one in the area that had a dog in the hospital 40 hours a week.” Schermbeck had proposed the idea to hospital administrators after reading an article about the benefits of pastoral care dogs in healthcare settings. She approached Cathleen Nelson, who was then president and CEO of the hospital, who suggested Schermbeck speak with Sister Dorothy Thum, vice president of Mission Services for Mercy Health Partners. After some discussion, the administrators agreed that pet therapy might integrate well with the faith-based hospital’s holistic approach to healing the body, mind and spirit. Schermbeck agreed to purchase the dog that would become her “partner” and make it a part of her family. “I knew I would bond with whatever dog I worked with, so I wanted it to be mine, so that if I would retire or my job situation would change, we wouldn’t be separated,” she said.

Rev. Sherry Schermbeck, her therapy dog Hope, and Larry Schaffer, of EgglestonMeinert- Pavley Funeral Home. The funeral home donated the plaque, hung near the chapel at Mercy St. Hospital, as a way to recognize Schermbeck and her first therapy dog, Gracie, who died last year after 11 years of service at the hospital. After some research, she chose a Bichon Frise for its small size and nonshedding, hypo-allergenic coat, which would be unlikely to cause problems for people who have dog allergies. “The breed comes from the Canary Islands and means, ‘curly lap dog,’” she said. In support of the program, Pups ‘N’ People Dog Training in Maumee donated training services; East Suburban Animal Hospital donated veterinary care and South Suburban donated grooming services for the dog. Selecting the dog’s name was easy, Schermbeck said. “The name represented my hope that she would be the vehicle of God’s grace, to open doors that might otherwise have been closed, to reach people who might otherwise be unreachable.” Gracie did not disappoint. Schermbeck prayed for her Gracie in the hospital chapel on her first day of “work.” she recalls. Not long after, the two encountered an Asian woman sobbing in the hospital hallway. The woman had come to see her sister, who, unbeknownst to her, had already died. “As she stood there sobbing, speaking little English, Gracie was in my arms and focused intently on her,” Schermbeck recalled. “When she was ready to leave, she kissed me on the cheek, thanked me, and then took Gracie’s head in both of her hands and kissed Gracie on the top of the head and said, ‘Thank you, too.’” Over the years, Schermbeck chronicled a number of “case studies” detailing Gracie’s impact on hospital patients, visitors and staff members. There were many. “When she was at home, she tumbled and played with our other dogs, but when she was here, she seemed to instinctively know when she needed to be still and do her therapy work,” Schermbeck said. “She

developed the sensitivity to know when and where she was needed. “The trainer warned me that she could get burned out, but I never saw it with Gracie…she always happy to come to work,” she said. Typically, Gracie visited patients by referral from staff or families. On occasion, she’d take a “wrong turn” into a room and more often than not, she’d find a new friend. Often, the patient would open up to Schermbeck while Gracie snuggled up close on the bed. “She opened doors, sparked conversations that I might not have been so successful at myself,” she said. About four years ago, Gracie was joined by Hope, another Bichon Frise who, literally wandered into the lobby one day after sneaking out of a car outside the hospital. “I got paged from about three people who wanted to know if I was missing Gracie because she was in the gift shop,” Schermbeck said. The chaplain eventually found the owner of the dog, a woman from Oak Harbor. The woman was ill and expressed concern about being able to care for the dog, whom she called Bailey. Schermbeck, agreed to take the dog on a temporary basis and eventually adopted her. She renamed the dog Hope. “We took her for training; Gracie was also a good teacher for her and eventually Hope joined the pastoral care team, too,” Schermbeck said, adding, “She visited her former owner several times when she was a patient at St. Charles before she died. Though Schermbeck and Hope retired Nov. 1, 2013, patients and visitors still ask about the therapy dog, often telling staff members their “Gracie stories.”

How you can find time for fitness Finding time to exercise is no small feat for many men and women. Obligations at home and at the office can make it hard to fit in a workout, a familiar quandary for men and women with multiple commitments. Though it’s not always easy to fit in a workout when juggling multiple responsibilities, men and women must consider the responsibility they have with regard to maintaining their physical and mental health. The United States Department of Health and Human Services advises that healthy adults get at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes a week of vigorous aerobic activity, and that such activity should be spread out over the course of the week. In addition, the DHHS also advises that healthy adults include strength training exercises in their workout regimens at least twice a week. Such a workout schedule can improve both physical and mental health, making it easier for men and women to handle their hectic schedules. While such recommendations may seem manageable, many men and women still feel as if there’s just not enough time in the day for them to incorporate a daily exercise regimen. The following are a few ways such men and women can find time for fitness. * Take a walking lunch. Many professionals have heard of a “working lunch,” but those strapped for time to exercise might want to take a walking lunch instead. Rather than sitting at your desk or in your favorite booth at a nearby restaurant on your lunch hour each day, consider squeezing in some time to walk during those 30-60 minutes you normally spend eating or catching up on office gossip with coworkers. * Exercise in the morning. Research has shown that men and women who exercise in the mornings exercise on a more consis-

Research has shown that men and women who exercise in the mornings exercise on a more consistent basis than those who exercise later in the day. tent basis than those who exercise later in the day, including after leaving the office at the end of the workday. * Prepare meals ahead of time. If working out in the morning simply won’t work out for you, then consider planning meals in advance so you can free up time between the office and dinner each night. For example, slow cookers and crockpots make it possible to start making dinner in the early morning and require little or no effort once you arrive home in the evening. * Work while you workout. Smartphones and tablets have made it easier than ever to get work done while you’re away from work. This includes getting some work done while you’re getting in your weekly

recommended aerobic activity on the treadmill, elliptical machine or exercise bike. * Get off the couch. Many men and women prefer to unwind on the couch as they catch up on their favorite television shows and movies. But such unwinding should not come at the expense of working out. Much like catching up on work at the gym, you also can catch up on your favorite shows and movies while at the gym. Many smartphones and tablets now have apps that allow users to access subscription streaming services, so users who can’t find time to exercise should take advantage of such apps and watch their favorite shows and movies from the treadmill instead of the couch.

The many benefits of massage therapy Advertisements for vacation destinations often paint couples’ massages as the premier romantic activity. It’s true that massages can be relaxing and sensual, making such sessions ideal gifts. Yet, massages aren’t just sultry oils and New Age music. They can actually be very good for overall health. Massage therapy is beneficial in various ways. Massage is no longer just available in upscale health clubs or luxury spas. Massage spas have cropped up in malls, hospitals, clinics, and even office buildings, making massage therapy that much more accessible. The Mayo Clinic notes that while more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, it may be helpful for a variety of health ailments. In addition to easing sore muscles, reducing joint pain and help-

ing soft tissue strains or injuries, massage can promote relaxation, reduce anxiety and calm feelings of stress. Massage reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol. This helps to lift spirits and can often lower blood pressure. Massage also may help to boost the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, which are associated with depression. According to Health magazine, massage also can help promote healthy sleep. It has something to do with the effect of massage on delta waves, which are the brain waves connected to deep sleep. There is some evidence that massage can also increase white blood cell counts, promoting improved immunity. Many people rely on massages to relieve pain. According to a report published in 2011 in the American College of Physi-

cians’ “Annals of Internal Medicine,” massage helps people in pain feel and function better than those who do not receive treatment. Massage can alleviate stiffness and pain and promote a better range of motion. And pain relief is not just for the back, arms and legs. Massage can reduce risk for migraines and decrease pain from tension headaches. Massage even has beauty benefits. Rubbing the face and scalp can promote blood flow and encourage lymphatic drainage. This can add vitality to the complexion and plump up the skin. Dull hair may appear more shiny and revitalized. People can explore different types of massage and experiment with what works best for their ailments. Everything from Swedish massage to reflexology is offered at massage clinics.

Have a flu-free winter season Spending significant time in close proximity to others indoors can make people more susceptible to the flu. As a result, winter, when people typically spend more time indoors than outdoors, is often dominated by the sniffling and sneezing synonymous with the flu. But men and women can take steps to protect themselves from the flu this season. * Get a flu shot. Some people prefer to avoid getting a flu shot because they want to build up their natural immunities or they believe the shots can make them sick. But most flu shots contain an inactive virus that will not make you sick, and will only trigger your body’s immune system response to a foreign invader. It can take a couple of weeks for full immunity to develop, so it’s possible to still get sick even after a flu shot has been administered. Also, a flu shot does not guarantee recipients won’t get the flu. People can still get the flu after receiving a flu shot, as it may be another strain of the virus. But flu shots are largely effective. * Quit smoking. Smoking can disable mechanisms in your breathing passageways that serve as natural repellants to the flu. These include the hairs on the lungs that brush away contaminants. * Avoid sick people. When those around you are sick, it is best to keep your distance, especially when those people have the flu. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state that people with the flu can spread it to others up to six feet away. Flu viruses are spread mainly by droplets of bodily fluids expelled during coughing, sneezing and even talking. * Be especially cautious when pregnant. According to Dr. Cameron Wolfe, an infectious disease specialist at Duke University Medical Center, women who are pregnant are at a higher risk of complications and even death from influenza. Doctors don’t fully understand why, but many feel that because the flu can compromise a woman’s ability to breathe well, this makes it difficult for oxygen to be passed on to the fetus. * Get plenty of rest and good food. Adequate sleep and a healthy diet can bolster your immune system.

“Survivor” star to speak at Go Red for Women event Heart disease kills nearly half a million women each year – about one per minute. They are sisters, mothers, daughters, friends, neighbors and colleagues. The American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement seeks to provide women with the tools and resources they need to reduce their risk for heart disease and stroke. Make a difference in the lives of Northwest Ohio women at the Go Red for Women Luncheon, which will be held Friday, Nov. 7, at noon at Parkway Place, 2500 Parkway Plaza, Maumee. The event will begin at 11 a.m. with a health and wellness expo. The luncheon program begins at noon. The event, which will be emceed by Emilie Voss of WTOL, will also feature a celebrity keynote speaker, Holly Hoffman, of the television show, “Survivor Nicaragua.” Hoffman will share her inspirational story of what it was like to be the “last woman standing” on her season of the show and how her experiences have uniquely affected her view of life and its challenges. Tickets are $100 per person. Corporate tables are also available. For more information about the luncheon or to reserve your seat, contact Kali Wulff at kali.wulff@heart. org or call 419-740-6167. “When you get involved in supporting Go Red for Women by advocating, fundraising and sharing your story, more lives are saved every day,” said Michelle Dean of Rudolph Libbe, Inc. and the chair of the 2014 event. “There are 300 fewer women dying each day because of the educational support the movement provides. We know that women who are involved with the Go Red movement live healthier lives, with nearly 90 percent making at least one healthy behavior change, more than one-third losing weight, more than 50 percent increasing their exercise, six out of 10 changing their

diets and about one-third talking to their personal doctors about developing heart health plans.” To learn more about heart health, call 1-800-AHA-USA1 or visit heart.org.

Help “Kick Hunger” Main Street Ventures and its restaurants – Ciao! Restaurant in Sylvania, Revolution Grille in Toledo and Real Seafood and Zia’s Restaurant at The Docks – are aiming to “kick hunger” through the “Taste of the NFL” program. Family House is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization that provides emergency homeless shelter, food and services to almost 300 families each year. “Taste of the NFL,” being held with Heidelberg Distibuing and Gallo Wineries is a dine/donate program that will help Family House “Kick Hunger.” Through Nov. 30, for each bottle of wine sold, a meal will be donated to Family House. Terry Kretz, area district manager for Main Street Ventures, said, “Family House has a unique mission to keep families together through a crisis. At our participating restaurants we want to help during that period of homelessness. We are pleased that our donation will strengthen that support allowing for meals to be purchased for families who live at the center.” Renee Palacios, executive director of Family House said, “We are so thankful that Main Street Ventures, through the Taste of the NFL program, has chosen Family House to benefit from a portion of

these wine sales.” To make reservations at participating restaurants, call 1-888-456-3463

Survivor Art Show Area cancer patients will share their art and their stories at the Third Annual Survivor Art Show Friday, Oct. 17 from 4 to 7 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 18 from 2 to 4 p.m. at The Victory Center, 5532 W. Central Ave., Suite B., Toledo. All types and varieties of art expression will be included in the event. Many of the cancer survivor artists will be present to share the stories behind their artwork. The cancer journey is a time of great emotional and mental stress, along with the physical hardships sometimes encountered with treatment, according to Penny McCloskey, program director. “Art expression is one of the ways that people cope with the extraordinary changes they have gone through in their lives. Since art expression is an individual process, the scope of the collection ranges from glass mosaic and cross stich, to collage and painting.” The Victory Center hosts the Healthy Spirit Art Therapy program, held with the support of Key Bank and the Toledo Community Foundation, and led by local art therapist Areka Foster. Program participation is free for any local cancer survivor and is held twice a month. Art show pieces may have been created during the Healthy Spirit Art Therapy program, or by individual survivors working independently at home The presentation is free and opened to the public. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, call 419-5317600.

Distillery to offer new drinking experience in Oak Harbor A local distiller is hoping to bring a new drinking experience to downtown Oak Harbor. Joe Helle, representing Oak N Harbor Distillery, 136 W. Water St., asked village council on Monday for its support in his new endeavor. Helle has secured the required federal permit for the business and is now waiting for a state liquor department inspection for the manufacture and sale of alcohol. That permit, should it be issued, will come before council in the near future. “Really, my future is in your hands when that license comes across your desk,” said Helle, who attempted to quell any concerns about the business. “This will be the first legal distillery in Oak Harbor. It’s not beer. It’s whiskey, vodka and bourbon,” said Helle. “We’re not a bar where you can sit down, get a beer and watch the game.” The distillery, he said, is about “the experience.” Patrons will watch Helle hand craft the spirits in a still with a 53-gallon boiler system located in the refurbished 1,200-square-foot store front the business occupies along the village’s main street. He is only legally able to share four quarter-ounce samples with someone or

sell 1.5 liters in a single visit. “And safety is paramount,” Helle insisted. “We’ll be manufacturing it but there will be no open flame in the building.” Resident Dennis Shiets said he thought there were already too many bars in town. This enterprise is different, Helle responded. “It’s a specialty product. It’s a handcrafted alcohol you can’t get here unless it’s from someone’s garage.” Mayor Bill Eberle complimented Helle on his new venture. “I personally look forward to it. It’s a neat little niche,” the mayor said. It will also stir up interest in Oak

Harbor, Helle added. “They are a draw. It’s all about marketing. And people aren’t going to come if my product isn’t good.” Future endeavors include creating a “Sippers Club” in which members receive souvenirs such as T-shirts and personalized flasks. While he has no product to sell presently, Helle invited council and others to the distillery’s open house during the Oak Harbor Apple Festival. Fiscal clerk search The search for a new fiscal clerk has been narrowed to five candidates, according to Eberle. They will be interviewed at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 14 in village council chambers. The new hire will replace fiscal officer Debbie Carpenter who submitted her resignation in September for personal family reasons. Her last day is Oct. 31. Land auction About eight acres of village-owned land on the western side of Port Clinton go on the auction block at 3 p.m. Nov. 4 in village council chambers. The auction will be run by Len Partin of Jack Bradley Realty. A website is up now regarding the sale and fliers have been mailed to those who expressed interest in the parcel in years past. Oak Harbor has owned the land along

State Route 163 near the corporation limits for about 30 years. It was purchased in hopes of using it for future water system development. However, the village joined the Ottawa County Regional Water System, its current provider, and the land became obsolete, Village Administrator Randy Genzman said. The village has tried unsuccessfully to privately sell the land for years. Partin will meet with village council Oct. 20 to discuss pricing guidelines for the auction. Trick-or-treat hours The village set Halloween trick-or-treat hours for 6-7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31. There is no home football game that night, Police Chief Steve Weirich noted. New crossing guards Three crossing guards have been hired to patrol the streets surrounding Oak Harbor Middle School, the chief said. One person is already on the job. The other two should be on-site by next week. Restructuring of the Benton-CarrollSalem School District changed the makeup of the student body in recent years. There is more foot traffic as well as much younger students, including fourth graders, in the mix which intensified the safety issues at the already congested area, the chief explained before.

Balance, leadership are key to Gibsonburg’s 6-0 start By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com It’s been a long time coming for Gibsonburg. The Golden Bears, who have not had a winning season since 2001, appear to be turning the corner in year five under Coach Steve Reser and were off to a 6-0 start heading into Friday’s non-league game at Hardin Northern. Gibsonburg has been dominant as its passing attack and stout defense have enabled the Bears to outscore opponents 279-121 while beginning play in the Toledo Area Athletic Conference with a 3-0 mark. In addition, the prospect of a Division VI playoff spot is looking better and better. After six weeks, the Bears were ranked fourth in the region, trailing Tinora, Spencerville, and Convoy Crestview — all also undefeated. Trailing the Golden Bears is Lima Central Catholic (4-2), Wynford (5-1), defending state runner-up Wayne Trace (5-1) and Van Buren (5-1). Gibsonburg quarterback Matt Tille, a four-year starter, has helped power the offensive attack. During week six at Robert E. Krotzer Field, Tille rushed for 213 yards and threw for another 174 to lead the Golden Bears to a 62-35 victory over TAAC foe Edon. The week prior, in Gibsonburg’s 58-24 victory over Danbury, Tille threw for 314 yards and four touchdowns and carried the ball 15 times for 133 yards and two scores. His ability to run and throw the ball keeps defenses off balance and serves as the offense’s fulcrum. Tille has a solid group of receivers to throw to, including four-year letterman Derek Angelone, as well as Erik Jahna, Marcus Tille and Griffin Geary, among others. There’s been pressure on them to replace the production lost by the graduation of the speedy Isaih Arriaga and Adam Copley, and they answered the call so far. In the win over the Lakers, Angelone caught five passes for 132 yards and a score, Geary had two catches for 67 yards and a touchdown, Jahna’s one reception was a 51-yard touchdown and Marcus Tille had three catches for 47 yards. Angelone caught a 46-yard TD pass and Jahna had a 24-yard TD reception from Tille in the win

(Photo by Jeff Holcomb) over Edon. “They’ve really stepped up to the challenge and taken over the reins,” Matt Tille said. “It’s nice throwing the ball and knowing that they can go up and make a play.” As with any offense, the position players only have success if the offensive line blocks well, and Reser says the Bears’ five men up front have done that. From left to right, Tyler Hovis, Ian Taylor, Trent Hovis, Billy Ruth and Skyler Shively, a group that includes just one senior, has given Matt Tille time to throw while opening holes for Josh Dyer. “They’ve been awesome,” Tille said. “They’ve stepped up this year. They’re one of the best offensive lines I’ve had throughout my career here. They don’t mess up too many times, and when they do, they make up for it. I’m really happy with the way they’re going, and they’re always ready to learn.” Reser is pleased with their performance, too.

“The offensive line is doing a great job,” he said. “I told the team, ‘If we have a good line on both sides of the ball, we’ll have a good team. They don’t get enough credit, and no team’s line gets enough credit. We’ve really pushed getting into the weight room and our boosters have helped to revamp (the weight lifting facility).” The defense has more than held up to its share of the bargain, too, allowing a respectable 20.2 points per game. It may be three scores per game, but it’s enough to give the high-powered offense a chance to score even more. The defensive line, which includes A.J. Blausey and Bryce Wright at the ends, Shively and Brandon Campbell in the middle, is big and athletic. The linebackers, which include Ryan Clark and Alex Vargo on the outside and Dyer and Tyler Hovis on the inside, have consistently swarmed to the ball and the secondary, which includes Angelone, Marcus Tille and Mateo Flores, have kept the opposing teams’ passing

attack in check. Reser credits his kids for gaining a better understanding of defensive coordinator Steve Hankish’s scheme. “Our staff understands what is expected of them (and) our players are doing a nice job of just reading their keys,” Reser said. “Coach Hankish does a nice job, and everybody else on the staff is doing a great job. The kids are very coachable. “If they understand schemes, that’s 90 percent of the battle. If you have some speed, athleticism and size, that helps even more. This is year two for Coach ‘Hank’ and this defense, and the players are putting themselves in position to make plays. It seems like our defense is really rallying to the football. We want our guys to fly to the football. We push that in practice and we do a lot of pursuit drills.” Tille credits the defense with helping to take some of the pressure off the offense. “I know they have my back,” Tille said. “I know that if I’m not having the best game, they’ll pick it up. It’s nice knowing that I can go onto the field and not have to worry about getting a TD. Obviously, we want to get a touchdown every time, but it’s nice to know they’re playing so well. It’s nice to never have to be in a hole.” Tille and his fellow seniors also have an understanding that finishing their season off on a high note can help to complete the rebuilding process while sustaining their legacy. “It’s extremely important,” Tille said. “We came into the year and there was talk amongst the seniors to leave a legacy. That’s been our drive throughout the entire summer — just leave your legacy. One day, you’re going to want to talk about that.” Tille believes that the leadership of this year’s senior class has been instrumental in helping the team to remain focused. He says that senior class is a special group, one that includes Tille, Angelone, Ickes, Vargo, Blausey, Wright, Campbell, Tyler Hovis and Julian Arriaga, who is currently battling an injury. “Everybody has stayed together this year,” Tille said. “The leadership out of our class has been amazing. Everybody knew that if they wanted to play, they had to put the time in the weight room and the conditioning. The work in the offseason has been different in the past.”

Waite seeks to end 51-year championship drought By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com It may not look like it yet, but Waite football has come a long way. So far, that the possibility remains Waite could win its first Toledo City League football championship in 51 years. In the season’s first six games, the Indians (2-4 overall) have equaled their win total from last season while showing resolve. Waite’s game at Bowsher this Friday will provide the Indians with a challenge that could propel them further along as they look to climb the ranks of the City League. The Rebels (2-4, 1-0 CL), who opened CL play with a 48-18 victory over Woodward, won the conference title last season and finished 8-2 overall. Waite coach Dan Chipka’s first victory as a head coach came when his club defeated east side rival, Clay, in thrilling fashion, 28-26, for the Oil Barrel Trophy. The Indians later beat Rogers, 50-20, in the first game of the City League slate to open 1-0 in the conference. Quarterback Jeremy Pratt led the way, using his dual-threat abilities to run a multi-faceted offense that includes tripleoption concepts. Pratt currently leads the CL in two categories, passing (791 yards) and touchdowns (10), and is third in rushing (838). He’s gotten help from running back Nate Houle (349 rushing yards), Anthony Huff (190 receiving yards) and

GAME OF THE WEEK City League Showdown Waite Indians @ Bowsher Rebels Friday, October 17 7 p.m.

Anthony Ashford (180 receiving yards). Chipka says the victory over the Eagles was an emotional turning point. “It was a magical experience,” he said. “We as a coaching staff have been harping on the kids every day about success, doing the little things right, being processoriented and looking at every day to make sure we’re doing the things right to become better. I think the players, they needed to see the results and see the victory and taste the victory. When it came together for us against Clay, it was awesome, it was sweetness. A couple kids were crying, a couple members of the community were crying. It was special.” Chipka credits Pratt for taking the lead and serving as the offense’s catalyst. “I can’t speak enough about Jeremy’s attitude and leadership, and his production speaks for itself,” Chipka said. “I think

Jeremy is going to surprise a lot of people and not only distance himself as the league’s leading passer but also as the league’s leading rusher. With the offense we run, it’s quarterback-driven. It’s predicated on the play of the quarterback, whether it’s run or pass. In the preseason, Jeremy was still learning the offense and still going through those growing pains. He’s grown as a young man and an athlete in leaps and bounds.” It hasn’t been just Pratt. He’s gotten help from Houle, Ashford and Jermaine Brown, who scored Waite’ first touchdown in the victory over Rogers. “Houle, Brown and Ashford, those guys are the ones getting the tough yards,” Chipka said. “Especially Nate Houle. The way he’s been able to run, the third-andone yard, the fourth-and-inches’, the plays we desperately need, Nate’s been delivering. That’s what leads to the success of the offense, and then Jeremy breaks the ensuing play, and people don’t see that when they read the paper. When we ride that guy’s back and Jeremy gives Nate the football, those are some tough yards and he’s able to get. Four yards, six yards, sometimes 12.” It’s not just the victories that indicate the Indians are headed in the right direction, Chipka says it’s the fight they’ve shown in some of their setbacks. Three of Waite’s losses came to teams currently in playoff contention. Bellevue, which led the Indians by just six points midway through the third quarter before pulling away for a 42-20 victory,

was ranked No. 1 in Division IV, Region 12 after six weeks. Dover, which defeated Waite on Sept. 26, was ranked seventh in D-III, Region 9 and Genoa stood ninth in D-IV, Region 12. “It was a six-point game in the third quarter with Bellevue,” Chipka said. “That’s what I was alluding to — we are getting to the point where we are tasting victory. We have to learn how to close out games. We have to seize the moment.” More than anything, Chipka is hoping his team can learn valuable lessons after playing a tough non-conference schedule. “We’ve talked about continuing to play the best in the state of Ohio,” he said. “We needed to find our identity. We were a tough, blue-collar football team that will play hard for four quarters. And the team embraced it. “After a few tough losses, we had to move in a tough direction, we had to pump the positivity. We told the players, ‘We’ve competed with these teams. We need to become winners and finish it off.’ We wanted to learn how the opposition does the little things right, how they set a tempo and attitude, the managerial things, not so much the Xs and Os. I think it hits home for the kids. “There’s only one way to get better and that’s through hard work and perseverance through tough times. We know what we were up against and we know that we had to compete at a championship level. I’m so proud of these kids because they’ve bought into what we’re teaching them.”

Clay coach inducted into Northern’s hall

*Press Game of the Week

By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Kristopher Oberdick, a 2002 sport management major and basketball athlete at Ohio Northern University who lives in Oregon, was inducted into ONU's athletic hall of fame on Oct. 3 as part of homecoming weekend. Oberdick, who played prep basketball at St. John’s Jesuit, exploded onto the ONU scene as a senior and had one of the greatest seasons in Ohio Northern men’s basketball history in 2000-01. Picked to finish sixth in the Ohio Athletic Conference during the preseason, Oberdick was named captain of an ONU team that had graduated three 1,000-point scorers the year before. Playing in what was thought to be a rebuilding season, Oberdick propelled the Polar Bears to a 27-4 record and a No. 1 national ranking for the final four weeks of the regular season. The Polar Bears won the OAC Regular Season and Tournament titles in convincing fashion and reached the Final Four of the NCAA Division III Tournament. Oberdick was named First Team AllAmerican, First Team All-Region and OAC Player of the Year after leading ONU in scoring, assists, steals and blocked shots. He currently ranks 31st all-time at Ohio Northern with 1,084 career points. Oberdick is employed by Oregon City Schools as a teacher, junior varsity basketball coach and junior varsity golf coach at Clay. He and his wife, Rebecca (Lee), a 2002 ONU graduate, live with their children Grant (6) and Grady (2), and are expecting a third in January.

Eastwood’s youth movement learning varsity ropes By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Eastwood sixth-year volleyball coach Jeff Beck says he gets plenty of slack from the community about having four freshmen start on the varsity team. He’s been willing to endure the verbal punishment, and so far, the season has gone as planned. After winning in three straight games over Rossford, the Eagles were 14-5 overall and have secured sole possession of second place in the Northern Buckeye Conference with three losses (9-3). A week earlier, Eastwood gave league champion Otsego (13-3, 11-0) more than any other NBC team had all season. The Knights prevailed 25-23, 25-22, 18-25, 25-18, but nobody on the Eastwood coaching staff is complaining. It was the first time Otsego did not win an NBC match in straight games. One of those freshman, Katelyn Meyer, led Eastwood in kills during the match. “It was awesome,” Beck said. “Before this match, they (Otsego) have not even dropped a set (game) in league play and nobody had even gotten 19 points on them. “Our scores really were nice. You know, I’m almost as happy as a win because we are so young, and it means we’re moving in the right direction.” Seeing his young team nearly pull it out was heartbreaking, however. “It was a great night. The girls worked hard,” Beck said. “When you have games that go 25-23, 25-22, those can go either way and I think Otsego’s experience just won out. They are really good this year and hats off to them. “We walked in there, and I hate to say this as a coach, but we coach to win. Am I happy with what we did? Yes. But on the other side of that, when we were so close to winning, too, I’m kind of on the fence.” Eastwood actually has six freshmen on its varsity roster, and all were part of an eighth grade team that finished as league runner-up last year, losing to whom else, but Otsego, in the final of the NBC tournament. But they have had to grow up quickly at the varsity level. Among Eagles’ starting freshmen are outside hitter Katelyn Meyer (166 kills), who led the team in kills heading into the Rossford match. She is joined by sixfoot tall freshman middle hitter Hannah Hodulik (84 kills) and freshman setter/hitter Abby Schroeder (240 assists, 132 digs, 60 aces). “The biggest thing about this is they are not afraid anymore,” Beck said. “They

Eastwood libero Natalie Decker dives to dig out a kill attempt by Otsego. (Press photo by Lee Welch/ Family Photo Group.com) were a little nervous and a little afraid to make mistakes. The game kind of made them feel insecure. They had a lot of butterflies. Now, they have a body language about them that kind of displays a veteran. I don’t think they have fear anymore to go out there and do what we ask. “I can’t say enough about them, and I’m sure people get tired of me harping about the freshmen, but tell me whatever coach in any other sport who starts four of them. I was hoping I knew what I was doing and I think I’ve proven it. “Last year, we finished 17-6 and we finished second and we had some veterans, we had a player going to a (NCAA) D-II college, and we’re more than likely going to finish 17-5, which is better than last year. Our schedule didn’t change much and I’m really excited. I think the future is extremely bright.” Leadership roles Beck says the older players have been on board, taking on roles as leaders. Five letter winners returned from last year’s team, which lost to top-seeded Central Catholic in the third round of the Division II district tournament. Three starters returned in senior setter/

right side hitter Jaci Juergens (115 kills, 427 assists, 225 digs, 47 aces before Rossford game), junior libero Mackenzie Albright (394 digs, 32 aces) and junior outside hitter Bri Hoodlebrink (133 kills). Eastwood’s other starter is senior middle hitter Morgan Getz (117 kills, 52 aces), and junior Allyson Decker has 138 digs and 31 aces. Juergens is a four-year starter and has been a first-team All-NBC and all-district setter for three consecutive years. Albright was a second-team all-conference selection last season, while Hoodlebrink was named honorable mention. “Jaci Juergens is a four-year starter for us at setter, and she has really helped the younger girls feel comfortable and not worry about their mistakes,” Beck said. “She’ll set them. They’ll make a mistake, and she’ll set them again. She’s helped them gain confidence. If it wasn’t for her, I don’t know how they would’ve gained that game-confidence. “Morgan Getz, she was our third middle last year and did not get a lot of playing time, and she’s second on our team in kills. She’s gone from a non-starting role to a starter and she has done such a good job this year that basically if we didn’t have her, we would have lost a couple matches,” Beck continued.

“All the other upperclassman had to really be patient with the younger girls. They have higher demands on them, and they are expecting the freshmen to meet those demands but not in a negative way.” As a result, Eastwood has been a different team during the second half of its NBC round-robin schedule. “The second half of the league schedule can really tell you whether or not you are improving,” Beck said. “We lost to Elmwood and we beat them the second round, and then we had the scores against Otsego.” Eastwood is the only NBC team which will enter the tournament against Division II competition, and the school has one of the smallest D-II enrollments in the state for volleyball. Beck knows his team will have its work cut out. Eastwood, the No. 3 seed, will host the Maumee-Lake winner at 6 p.m. on Oct. 18, and a win will send them to the district final four at Findlay High School. Beck says Otsego, which is unranked in the state coaches’ poll, has unlimited potential in the D-III tournament. “I expect them to get to the final four because last year they almost made the final four, and narrowly lost to Archbold,” Beck said. “They are really good this year.”

Eastwood senior gridiron players finally get over the hump By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com In a Northern Buckeye Conference thriller between Eastwood (5-1, 3-0) and Lake (5-1, 2-1), the Eagles won by the slimmest of margins, 28-27. For Eastwood’s seniors, getting past Lake and Genoa was their first goal, but few others saw it coming. Genoa has always been in the way for Eastwood’s senior footballers, and although the Eagles have virtually owned the Flyers over the past 13 years, Lake was this year’s pre-season NBC favorite. In week six, trailing Eastwood 28-21, Lake backup quarterback Jacob Rettig found Todd Walters from 12 yards out on fourth down for a touchdown with seven seconds left, setting things up for a thrill-

ing finish. Lake coach Mark Emans decided to go for two on the conversion, sending his team out for the win. However, the Flyers were stopped when running back Branden Short was stopped at the goal line by Tyler McCrory. McCrory’s tackle likely saved Eastwood’s season. “It was the most exciting game I’d ever been a part of,” said McCrory, a defensive end. “We had to win that game — our season was in our hands. Now we don’t have to hope for other people to win or lose. We’ve worked hard this summer and it would’ve meant nothing if we lost. “(Coach Rutherford) said the next day that it all came down to that. If I hadn’t made that tackle, we would’ve missed the playoffs. This senior class had never beat Genoa. To beat Genoa (17-7) and Lake was pretty exciting. In preseason, we were

picked third and we beat the top two teams. Our goals were to make it back to the playoffs and win the league.” Against Lake, Eastwood kicker Lucas McCullough kicked an 18-yard field goal with 2:42 remaining that would have given the Eagles a 23-21 advantage, but a roughing the kicker penalty gave Eastwood a chance to take a first-and-goal at the Lake one-yard line. Rutherford chose to accept the penalty and took the points off the board, but his gamble ended up paying huge dividends. Senior back Grant Geiser punched it in for six points, which ultimately proved to be the difference. “I knew we had it in us to beat them and when we were down like that, I just never stopped believing,” said back Devin Snowden, who entered the game fifth in the NBC with 442 rushing yards. “I just kept telling everyone we could and they

believed me. (The coaches) just kept calm and didn’t show any panic or anything. We worked hard in practice all week so we knew all we had to do was start playing like we usually do and the rest would just fall into place.” Ultimately, Eastwood’s physicality was the difference as its offensive line continued to open holes for Geiser and Snowden while wearing down the Flyer defense, a fact that played into Emans’ decision to try and end the game before going to overtime. If the Eagles are to have continued success, it will be because of their ability to control the line of scrimmage and run the ball. “It makes me feel great that the team and coaches knew they could rely on us to do what we do best and just keep running it,” Snowden said. “But we couldn’t have done it without the line giving us holes to run through.”

eek: Who is the Least of Your Brothers?

Jesus tells His followers that failing to feed and clothe the least of their brothers, and failing to visit them when they are ill or in prison, is tantamount to failing to do those things for him. But, who are the least of our brothers? In a literal sense, the least of our brothers are those at the periphery of society: the homeless and those living in destitute poverty or marginalized by lives of crime or addiction. These are people who desperately need our help, whether they are aware of it or not. But, there is another class of people who might also be considered the least of our brothers; that is, those whom we marginalize in our own minds because of fear, prejudice, or other subjective reasons. Sometimes we marginalize others by

stereotyping them as members of a particular group, or perhaps by failing to adequately recognize or listen to them. Interestingly, these people may be the polar opposites of the first group (i.e., they may be wealthy, high-status, attractive individuals) but, we may still fail to treat them like genuine people for one reason or another. If that is the case, then we should also consider them to be the “least of our brothers.” The upshot of all this is simple. We should treat everyone we come into contact with as if they are our brother. Truly, I say to you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me. R.S.V. Matthew 25:45
