By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon council in the next couple of weeks may be considering legislation for the purchase of property for possible industrial development. “The Oregon Economic Development Foundation is looking for some opportunities to acquire some land to help possibly spur industrial development in Oregon,” City Administrator Mike Beazley said at an October 26 council meeting. “We might be looking to partner with that in some way. We are excited about those possibilities.” The city and the foundation are routinely in conversations with developers and realtors about possible projects, Beazley explained after the meeting. “Most of those projects never materialize,” he said, “and you continue to work on them.” Although he wouldn’t disclose the identity of the developers interested in purchasing the property, Beazley said it could “bear fruit” in the next couple of weeks. “We just want council to know we may be bringing legislation within the next coming weeks to take some next steps,” he said. Either the city would buy the property, or provide funding to the foundation to buy it. The city contributes much of the foundation’s funding. “In years past, it was my bias not to have the city acquire land for sale, but to leave it between private parties. It’s frequently the case now, though, when someone comes to us as a potential developer who wants 20 acres of land right away, I’m going to put together a project for Oregon. If we say to that developer to talk to the land owner, they would move on. They don’t have time to negotiate with the land owner. They want the land available and ready to go. Those are the types of situations in which the city will purchase property. That’s what we do for a shovel ready site,” he said. “When we buy the property, we typically expect it to sell fairly quickly Continued on page 2

Woodmore Schools

Special audit underway, treasurer says By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A special audit of financial records of the Woodmore School District has begun, Jamie Pearson, district treasurer, told residents attending an Oct. 25 forum. She described the audit as a “limitedscope examination of financial records and other information designed to investigate allegations of fraud, theft or misappropriation of funds. I felt I had an obligation to report some of these discrepancies at the auditor of state’s conference and that’s where this all started.” The audit could cover more than one fiscal year, she said. By implementing more internal controls, Pearson said the administration has made progress in addressing problems with balancing bank reconciliation statements, correcting payroll errors and similar issues. Some residents questioned why routine audits by the state in the past didn’t catch some of the mistakes and Pearson explained the audits are based on sampling of financial statements and not a line-by-line

examination of the district’s accounts. The loss of reimbursements – called hold harmless payments – to the district from the state due to the phasing-out of the tangible personal property taxes is only a “matter of when,” she warned but the district will likely realize more revenue from the Current Agricultural Use Valuation program in 2016. Pearson said she will be bringing a recommendation to the board of education in November for renewing an emergency operating levy first passed in May 2011. It generates $600,000 annually and would need to be passed in 2016 to not cause a lapse in revenue for the district. The district’s most recent five-year forecast shows it ended Fiscal 2015 on June 30 with total revenues of about $9.73 million Pearson is projecting total revenues to reach about $10.4 million by the end of Fiscal 2016, including a reimbursement of about $1.04 million. In each of the next four years, she is projecting the district will receive less than half that amount. Steve Huss, school board president, also noted the district’s financial situation

could change quickly as the state decides future basic state aid allocations. “In 2008, we were collecting around $3,100 per kid,” he said. “We’re up to about $4,700 in state aid now. That may turn around and go the other direction.” A resident asked if the board could look at tightening expenditures so they aren’t so close to revenues. Huss said any significant cuts would have to come from personnel and referred to a presentation by Jim Kieper, high school principal, during the board’s Oct. 20 meeting who said the school is operating with six fewer teachers since 1995, including those who taught at the seventh and eighth grade levels. “Here we don’t have a spending problem. Our problem is revenue,” he said. In Fiscal 2013 and 2014, the district’s general fund expenditures surpassed revenues but still had cash balances due to carry-overs and advances. Data compiled by Pearson for the forum says the administration has implemented spending cuts totaling about $200,000 for Fiscal 2016, which ends next June 30.

Land Continued from front page for potential development.” The city owns property in the Cedar Point Industrial Park. “We have acreage there and sites that are prepared for potential partners. In the last 20 years the city has made that available for industrial development. The current manufacturing and warehousing organizations in Oregon acquired the land in those kinds of partnerships over time,” Beazley said. The recently discussed projects are serious proposals, he said. “We’re hopeful as we always are. We’ll see where it goes in the coming weeks,” he said. “We don’t have anything decided or done yet.”

Foster home organizer fulfilling dream By Deb Wallace Special to The Press Dream Again Ohio will soon be opening two subsidized residences to house foster children who have aged out of the system, at 18, in former parsonages in the villages of Woodville (Solomon Lutheran) and Elmore (Bethel United Brethren). There is no set move-in date but the house in Woodville has been recently renovated and has held an open house for the community. The Elmore residence will house boys and the Woodville residence will house girls, with one site manager for both locations. The goal of Dream Again Ohio, says founder Evan Matheney, is to end homelessness among former foster youth and to help them develop vital life skills needed to succeed outside of the foster system. A non-profit organization, Dream Again Ohio was founded by Matheney in October 2014. He is a 2009 graduate of Lake High School. He also graduated from Ohio State University where he majored in political science and government. While he was attending law school at the University of Toledo, he participated in the CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) training program to work with kids in the courtroom and soon realized Ohio has little funding to support kids

who’ve aged out of the system and that it is the most populous state to not have foster care to the age of 21. Matheney was also a non-governmental observer for the 9/11 trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. While there, he thought, “Surely, if they can do this much evil in the world then the opposite has to be true. We can do that much good if only we would have the passion.” He soon made the decision to leave law school and pursue a master’s degree in clinical counseling and fill the need he saw. “The biggest challenge so far has been learning to trust myself and my decisions. Whenever you work with people you have

differences of opinion and sometimes you do not make people happy. Learning to be comfortable in those situations and decisions was a tough process,” he said. He said that the biggest success has been finding supporters of the organization. “People just keep coming out of the woodwork and want to help. It is terrifically humbling. We could not be nearing opening our first site if it was not for our supporters who have decided to become the change they wish to see in the world,” Matheney said. Dream Again Ohio is also hoping to combat failure to complete high school/ GED, poor enrollment in higher education, and criminal involvement. Skills the organization plans to provide include money management, interviewing skills, public speaking, auto care, and resume/job search help. Matheney hopes in five to 10 years Dream Again Ohio will have multiple housing sites closer to and in Toledo to better serve the kids in the program. “Taking care of the most vulnerable people in our society should be paramount. We hope to spread the message about a group of kids and students we are failing when we put them out on the streets. This group will no longer be nameless and silent, but known and powerful,” he said. For information visit www.dreamagainohio.com

City seeks funds to improve drainage By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon has submitted an application to the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) to help fund the $2.1 million Pickle Road Storm Sewer Relief Ditch project. Council last week authorized the mayor to submit the application for financial assistance from the State Capital Improvements Fund and the Local Transportation Improvement Program Fund for the project. The application, if approved, would provide a $320,000 grant and a 0 percent loan of $480,000 for the project, according to Public Service Director Paul Roman. The city earmarked $1.3 million in the budget for the project, which includes the purchase of an easement from Toledo Edison. Administrator Mike Beazley said plans call for the construction of detention/retention ponds on the Toledo Edison property that will improve drainage in the area. “We are in the process of discussing acquisition of property and/or easements to obtain these objectives. We’ve been meeting in the last month with FirstEnergy to discuss that possibility,” said Beazley. The project will improve drainage for many neighborhoods and properties along Pickle Road between Coy and Lallendorf roads, according to Roman, as well as many properties between Pickle and Brown roads. The project includes the replacement of a 24-inch storm sewer with a 48-inch storm sewer to expand drainage capacity on Pickle. “In a community as flat as Oregon, drainage is always a challenge,” said Beazley after the meeting. “The community has been investing for several years now to get ahead of this.” Coordinate projects The project will route drainage north from Pickle Road to Navarre Avenue before it empties into detention ponds that would be constructed on the Toledo Edison property. Roman said the city may not score as well on the application because it is not a regional project that would serve 20,000 people or more. The Oregon Flood Relief project is downstream from this project, which is the starting point to improve the system, said Roman. The city needs to coordinate the project with other projects that are ongoing, including a 16-inch waterline to loop the trunk water system to increase pressure to the southwest quadrant. The 16-inch waterline would run down the same Toledo Edison property that the city wants to acquire for drainage. Oregon Clean Energy also wants to have its gas line come up through the same corridor. Over the last year, the city has been trying to coordinate all three projects. Councilman Jerry Peach said it was an

ambitious but needed project to provide some relief to residents who continue to experience flooding in the area. He asked Roman how far along they were in discussions with Toledo Edison in reaching an agreement. Roman said there have been several conversations with Toledo Edison, and that the value of the property may vary. He said the property is zoned R-1 and C-2, which affects the value. Councilman Joshua Hughes said anything the city can do to improve storm water drainage is welcomed and necessary. He added that any relief the city can get from the state in paying for the project is a responsible use of tax dollars. Councilman Tim Zale said he had talked to many residents in the Oak Tree Run subdivision who had some concerns about flooding. He said there was standing water in a field west of the subdivision after a rain

event. He asked Roman how the project would benefit that area. Roman said it would serve the field but less of Oak Tree Run. The improvement would drain the areas a lot quicker during smaller rain events. Residents in Oak Tree Run wanted him to make certain improvements that he didn’t think he could make without having a negative effect in the Flo and Fleitz subdivisions, as well as other subdivisions. Roman said the direction of flow in Oregon is northeast. One of the regional benefits of the project is that it would help take care of the lake and basin, said Beazley. “All the things we do throughout the system, they benefit our basements, backyards, streets as well as the lake and the Maumee Basin as we try to manage the nutrient load delivered to the lake so we end up with fewer things like algae blooms,” Beazley said after the meeting.

Bobcat program at refuge A free program on bobcats in Ohio will be held Nov. 6 at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. The program is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. and will be given by Nathan Bowman, an ONWR staff member who has conducted bobcat research with the U.S. Forest Service and Division of Wildlife in Southeastern Ohio. Although seldom seen, the bobcat is the most abundant and widely distributed

wild cat in North America, according to the Forest Service. After disappearing from Ohio in the mid-1800’s, the bobcat became one of Ohio’s first species to be listed as “endangered.” Today, bobcat populations have recovered throughout Southeastern Ohio and have since been removed from the state endangered species list.

Woodmore’s Adams, Saffran take trips of a lifetime By Sierra Ream and Dyllan Wargo

opportunity to raise funds to help minimize the cost. Anyone interested in going on this trip should contact Adams at 419865-2721, ext 3320 or tadams@woodmoreschools.com.

Window To Woodmore Over the course of ten days, nine lucky people were blessed with the opportunity to go on the trip of a lifetime. Last summer, Woodmore High School Spanish teacher Tom Adams; sophomore Hunter Stevenson and his parents, Jill and Kurt; senior Emily O’Reilly and her mother, Andrea; sophomore Hailey McAfee; and juniors Adam Lemke and Jake Amstutz packed their bags and hopped on a flight to Spain. “My sister went on the 2011 SpainFrance trip, and her trip experience influenced me to go,” said Lemke. “It was the first opportunity I had to travel outside of the country and I loved seeing the cultural differences.” Amstutz said, “My parents influenced me to go to take a step out of my comfort zone.” Students discovered Spain is quite different than America. “People there are more in touch and aware of their surroundings and the environment around them,” said Adams. “They are very appreciative and drawn in by the arts.” Amstutz said, “The places were complex and there were more people than what I’m used to being around in Ohio.” Lemke added, “The buildings and areas are closer together there. There aren’t nearly as many fast food restaurants, but there are more bars and sit-down areas to eat. The only fast food chain I recall seeing was McDonald’s and even that we only saw once.” The only negative aspect of the trip to Spain was all the walking required by the travel agency. Lemke said he wished he could have spent more time in the major cities than in the smaller cities.

The Eiffel Tower in Paris was Amstutz’ favorite sight. After ten short days, on June 26 the group hopped on another flight back home to the States. Adams said he hopes to travel to Argentina in the near future. Adams is currently planning his next

trip for students to Spain and France. He has tentatively scheduled the trip for June 12-22 with planning during the 2016-17 school year. The trip will include three days in France (in Paris, the Loire Valley and Chartres) and the rest of the trip in Spain (in Madrid, Segovia, Toledo and Seville).

Saffran explores Belize This past summer, Woodmore high school science teacher Ellen Saffran took her trip of a lifetime. As a part of a graduate school requirement, she was able to travel to South America and spend 12 days in the beautiful country of Belize with other students in her class. While in Belize, Saffran listened to lectures, wrote reports and conducted behavioral studies on the local wildlife. Despite all of the hard work, they were able to explore as tourists as well. Saffran visited the Belize Zoo, a baboon sanctuary, the Cays off the coast, and the ruins of the ancient Mayan temple of Atun-Ha. Saffran enjoyed her trip. “You read about the different wildlife in books and such, but actually being there and seeing the biodiversity and the plants was really beneficial,” explained Saffran. In addition to the incredible sites, Saffran also met outstanding members of the scientific community, including Sharon Matola. Matola is the director of the Belize Zoo and has won conservation awards on the same level as Jane Goodall. Under her supervision, the zoo only takes in problem animals. The zoo’s staff provides a sanctuary for babies that are left behind in the wild until they are big enough to be released. They are also called when a wild animal strays into someone’s yard. They rescue these animals so that they are not put down.

Oregon buys Oriental Gardens for safety project By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon recently purchased property at 746 Wheeling Street as part of the Navarre Avenue Safety Improvement Project. Without the purchase, the project would not be able to proceed, according to city officials. The city paid $582,410 to Kin Cheung Lau and Monica Mon Koon Lau, owners of Oriental Garden Chinese Restaurant, Inc., of 746 Wheeling Street, and $7,590 for kitchen equipment and a pole sign, so an access road could be built in the middle of the property to alleviate traffic congestion. “This is something I would have liked to have done a couple of years ago,” said Mayor Mike Seferian, who initially started talking about plans in 2013. But state regulations kept the city from negotiating with the owners to purchase the property, he added. City Administrator Mike Beazley said the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) recently approved of the city’s environmental engineering plan. “We just got approval from the state within the last few weeks,” he said. “We weren’t allowed to begin negotiating to acquire property until after the go ahead on the environmental side from ODOT.” “Buying the property was necessary for the Navarre Avenue Safety Improvement project to proceed,” said Seferian. “When we had the opportunity to really talk to the owners of the Chinese restaurant…we felt we owed them the dignity of trying to come to a conclusion to this as quickly as possible,” said Seferian. “You see a fairly handsome dollar amount,” he added, but he and City Administrator Mike Beazley have recently discussed the purchase of residual property at the site with “interested parties.” “We are very comfortable that they are interested in the purchase of the residual property we have,” he said. He compared the necessity of purchasing the property for the Navarre Avenue Safety Improvement Project with getting a gas line connected to the new Oregon Clean

Energy plant. “Currently, they don’t have a gas line there to make that plant work. We have a big project going, but for ours to work successfully, to me, our Navarre Avenue Safety program officially starts when we own this property,” he said. Median and U-turns The road off Wheeling will improve access to businesses near the intersection at Navarre Avenue (State Route 2), such as Tim Horton’s, Arby’s, and in the Freeway Plaza where several shops are located. The project also includes the construction of a median along Navarre between Munding Drive and Isaac Streets Drive, and median openings to accommodate U-turns and emergency access. That section of Navarre is considered a hazard for vehicles heading east. Seferian once called it “the worst spot in the city,” where there is a high rate of injury accidents. Plans also include the acquisition of a driveway that runs between Tim Horton’s and Arby’s. The proposed access road would connect to the driveway before it exits on Navarre. “I know that this is a significant project for the city,” said Council President Dennis Walendzak. “I for one am encouraged we were able to proceed as quickly as we did. I am happy to see that.”

Councilman Tim Zale said he was disappointed to hear at a recent stakeholders meeting that the project might be delayed another year. “I think this is great that we will be able to proceed pretty much on time with this purchase,” he said. “This doesn’t ensure that we’ll start construction in 2016,” said Seferian. “But without it, we certainly weren’t. So our dedication to the project, on the city end, is we’ll do everything we can to move the project to the earliest possible construction date, and try to resolve any issues we have. The rest may depend on things the state may require. But we are dedicated to trying to bring construction sooner than later.” Councilman Joshua Hughes called it a “very important project” for the city. “Not only for the city and its citizens, but also for the businesses on State Route 2 and I want to commend the administration for this purchase. I believe it is one that is reasonable and quite equitable and allows the city to be in a position to move forward as expeditiously as possible which will, in the end, benefit all of our citizens,” he said. The Navarre Avenue Safety project is the result of recommendations from a safety study conducted for Navarre Avenue. Ninety percent of the $2.1 million project will be funded by a state grant, with the remainder coming from the City Street Improvement fund.

Winning an award

Excellence in Journalism at The Press The Press news staff won an Excellence in Journalism Touchstone award in the print non-daily newspaper category, for their three part series “Saving Lake Erie,” which appeared in the January 12, 19, and 26 editions of the paper. The Press beat out five other contestants for the first place award. The series took an in-depth look at what caused Toledo in August 2014 to issue a three day tap water ban to communities that consume city water after high levels of a toxin, microcystin, was detected

in samples taken from Toledo’s water treatment plant. The three-part series consisted of a total of 18 articles written by news editors Kelly J. Kaczala and Larry Limpf, and senior reporters Tammy Walro, and J. Patrick Eaken, with photos taken by photojournalist Ken Grosjean. The series also won second place in the features category in the national Advertising & Editorial Excellence contest from the Independent Free Papers of America.

Theft investigation Two complaints of money thefts from Woodmore High School facilities have recently been filed with the Elmore Police Department. Police were called to the school Sept. 29 and Oct. 1, according to department reports. On the 29th, James Kieper, high school principal, reported funds missing from “athletic event admissions.” On Oct. 1, Steve Barr, athletic director, also notified police of a “cash box reported stolen from unoccupied and unsecured concession building.” Sgt. Jeffrey Harrison, who responded to both calls, issued a statement last week saying the thefts are under investigation and additional records would not be released. The Wildcats last home football game, prior to the missing funds being reported, was against Otsego on Sept. 18.

Kaptur to appear at cannon dedication U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur will attend the World War I Cannon Re-dedication ceremony Veterans Day, Wednesday, Nov. 11, 3:30 p.m. at the Oregon Jerusalem Historical Society Museum, 1133 Grasser Street in Oregon. The WWI cannon was acquired in 1989 from the Toledo Memorial Soldiers Association, along with a number of artifacts including the famous Gilbert Gaul painting, Battery H Ohio Volunteers Light Artillery in Action at Cold Harbor. The cannon had been in storage at the historical society’s Brandville Museum site until funds could be raised to restore it. Bob Gilmore, a cannon master from Old Fort, Ohio recently completed the restoration and the cannon is currently on display at the Brandville site. The cannon was manufactured in France for the Russian Army, Connie Isbell, president of the historical society, said. It was used by the Russians against the German Army, captured by the Germans, sued against the Belgians and captured by the Belgian Army. Brand Whitlock, mayor of Toledo prior to WWI, was appointed ambassador to Belgium by President Woodrow Wilson shortly before war broke out. He later helped Belgium recover from the war by founding, with Herbert Hoover and others, the Commission for Relief in Belgium, which sipped 5.2 million tons of food and clothing to Belgium and northern France, according

,

The cannon is currently on display at the Brandville School site and will be rededicated on Wednesday, November 11. (Press photo by Ken Grosjean) to Isbell. Exactly when the cannon was presented to Whitlock is not known, Isbell says. However, it is believed to have been a gift

Despite state reimbursement, cuts on the table By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The Benton-Carroll-Salem School District will benefit from a bill approved last week by the state legislature that reinstates some of the school funding removed by one of Gov. John Kasich’s line-item vetoes of the state budget in June. Lawmakers included $44 million in additional payments to dozens of school districts in Senate Bill 208, which was also drafted to avert an unintended tax hike next year on small businesses. The bill passed in both chambers of the legislature Tuesday and provides the additional funds to districts to compensate them for lost revenue from the elimination of the tangible personal property tax that was assessed on business inventory and equipment. B-C-S schools are scheduled to receive

$133,081 in Fiscal 2017 under the bill. Other districts in The Press circulation area are not receiving the supplemental payments. Lawmakers wrote the bill to include a formula that would provide at least 96 percent of a district’s state aid and TPP reimbursements received in fiscal 2015. Many districts stand to receive more than that in 2017. Guy Parmigian, B-C-S superintendent, said the district had been scheduled to receive about $444,000 in supplements, resulting in a net loss of about $311,000. “We’re still going to have to restrain our spending,” he said, adding personnel may be cut through attrition and spending on technology could be reduced. Other nearby districts to receive supplemental funding under SB 208, include Rossford, $137,831; Bowling Green, $739,377 and Port Clinton, $599,348.

The governor’s veto, which only struck down the Fiscal 2017 TPP supplemental reimbursements, argues the payments are predominantly paid to districts with “higher capacity to raise revenue to support their schools.” “The TPP supplement addressed by this item is an additional payment, in the form of a guarantee, to ensure that no district receives less in Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2017 than they received the previous year for state foundation aid and TPP replacement combined,” the veto says. “Therefore, this guarantee provision diverts resources that could be targeted to lower capacity school districts and circumvents the original intent of the law to limit the reimbursement payments so that they were both declining and temporary.” The reimbursement payments are partially funded by Commercial Activity Tax receipts.

600 Ottawa County students attend showcase By Ashley Brugnone Camp Perry Writer sports@presspublications.com Last month, freshman students from local schools were bused to the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center at Camp Perry to take part in the second annual Ottawa County Career Showcase. The event, conducted by the Ottawa County Improvement Corporation and sponsored by the Ottawa County Business Advisory Council, was part of National Manufacturing Month – celebrated in October. This year, over 600 freshman students from Ottawa County schools (where Camp Perry is located) attended the showcase. The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) was proud to serve as participant and host at last year’s inaugural event as well as during this year’s showcase, which is meant to encourage workforce development, career preparation and skilled-trade opportunities for the next workforce generation. “There was a growing concern amongst the businesses of Ottawa County about where the workforce of the future was going to be coming from and how they would be able to send a message to young kids about the careers that are available within Ottawa County,” said Jamie Beier Grant, director of the Ottawa County Improvement Corporation. With those concerns, the Corporation met with school administrations around the county and discussed how to make students aware of area opportunities. From there, the

Tyler Thompson of the Ottawa County 4-H Shooting Stars air rifle team taught the students a little about the world of competitive shooting. Here, he shows Hannah Polanco of Danbury how to hold the rifle. (Photo courtesy of Camp Perry) Ottawa County Business Advisory Council was formed from business and education leaders with a goal of developing a pathway for youth in their future careers. Twenty employers, ranging from manufacturing to tourism, marketing to health care, and many places in between, constructed interactive and informative booths for the students to enjoy. The Liberty Aviation Museum in Port Clinton even brought a flight simulator for the freshman to try, while the Sheriff’s Department allowed students to try on law enforcement equipment.

“The engagement of the students becomes obvious,” said Beier Grant. “You see the kids having fun and enjoying it, but then, really becoming intrigued by it. And the businesses enjoy it because it gets them exposure and they get to educate the kids on what they do.” The CMP became involved when the council was looking for a place to hold the event. After meeting with Beier Grant, administrators at the CMP decided to donate the range space to the group. “Being able to bring the air gun range into the mix with the kids helps to promote

marksmanship to youth, which I know is one of the mission objectives of the CMP,” Beier Grant said. “It ended up being a nice marriage between the two.” Between their visits to each company’s booth, the freshmen were given the opportunity to fire CMP’s sporter air rifles in the world-class air rifle range – opening their eyes to a sport some had never seen before. Tyler Thompson, 18, of the Ottawa County 4-H Shooting Stars air rifle team, is a talented young marksman from the area. During the event, Tyler showed off his precision air rifle equipment as he fired shots at the range’s electronic targets – wearing his shooting jacket, pants and shoes. He also gladly answered the many questions the curious students had for him about the sport of air rifle shooting. “It’s a lot of fun – I enjoy it,” Tyler said. “I don’t think a lot of them have seen this type of rifle before. They did really well.” Hannah Polanco, a freshman at Danbury High School, was one of the lucky students to receive Tyler’s help. A hunter, she was used to firing guns, but nothing like the air rifles at CMP’s range. She first tried the sporter air rifle, then she moved on to the fancier, more complex precision air rifle. “I just like shooting guns,” she said with a laugh. “I liked [the precision rifle] a lot. It was heavy, but I got used to it, and the trigger was easier to pull.” “It’s normal – just like any other gun,” she added. “I’d probably do it again.” With the large and accommodating space offered at the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center, the CMP is able to introduce the world of air guns to curious visitors while helping to expand community support and the public’s perspective on all of the great happenings within the range.

Inspirational Message of the Week: Secret Prayer When Jesus advised his disciples to pray in the confines and secrecy of their rooms, He was giving this advice as part of a broader criticism of public displays of piety. The first verse of the sixth chapter of Matthew tells us to “Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 6.1) We probably cannot rid ourselves of all public displays of religion, unless we were to stop going to church and refrained from praying with others altogether. And, it is not the public nature of prayer that Jesus is railing against here so much as it is the puffed

Elliston

up, hypocritical, almost boasting attitude of the person who prays to make a show of it. In the Bible, Jesus frequently criticizes those, like the Pharisees, who make a pretentious show of their faith. In those days, this was likely to mean praying loudly in the synagogues. Even today, one does not have to look hard to find the modern counterpart to these actions. If so, we have our reward already. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. R.S.V. Matthew 6.3-4

Your Voice on the Street: By Stephanie Szozda

The Press Poll

What was your best garage sale ſnd?

In the November election, Issue 3 will allow the growth and sale of marijuana for recreational and medicinal purposes. How will you vote? Yes No

Richard Fiore Genoa “My best garage sale ſnds have been cooking equipment that you ſnd barely used. Cooking is my hobby and equipment is usually expensive in stores but people get rid of stuff like that if they’re moving, downsizing or if they never use it.”

Rebecca McPherson Genoa “A collection of angel tree tops. Most importantly a small angel to go on my mom’s Christmas tree while she’s in the care center. I decorate that tree for her every year so I have searched for that angel!”

Marilee Alger Northwood “I think a bread maker was the best thing I’ve ever found at a garage sale. I already had one but I bought it and gave it away because you just don’t ſnd things like that often!”

Julie Bowman Woodville “An antique Singer Sewing Machine from the early 1900’s with a foot pedal. It was $50! We’ve reſnished it and it’s in our dining room.”

Carol Barrett Oregon “When my daughter was young I liked to dress her in Polly Flinders dresses. They’re pretty expensive but I had this source out in Walbridge that bought them as well. So I would go and buy whatever her daughter had outgrown.”

Last Week's Results Are you in favor of more gun control to prevent mass shootings at schools? 74% No. Criminals will always ſnd ways to obtain guns whether or not there is gun control. 26% Yes. Making it more difſcult to obtain guns will save lives.

Before acting, remember to engage your brain first Acting without first thinking is too common. It is called reacting. It leads to unintended negative consequences. Problems are needlessly created or exacerbated. In this state, you are driven by emotion rather than logic. Anger, jealousy, bitterness, hurt, fear, and distrust are some of the feelings which bypass rational thought. Thinking after acting makes as much sense as a carpenter who cuts first and then measures. Once cut, a board cannot be made longer. Actions, once taken, can’t be undone. A skilled carpenter measures carefully before cutting. Being prudent means thinking before acting. Thinking before acting is responding. This is where your behavior is well thought out and planned. Just because someone else acts does not compel you to react. Thinking puts reason before emotion. Without a consciously thought out response, you revert to a knee jerk reaction. This is your default automatic behavior. What do you say or do when upset, frustrated, or angry? It’s common to become trapped in the same patterns of reactive behavior. Other people will pick up on this and use it to manipulate you.

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden Since emotions cloud your ability for clear thinking, take time to calm down whenever you are upset. Acting in haste bypasses the thinking stage. Rarely is there a pressing need to act immediately. More time is on your side than you realize. Once you are calm, you are in a position to begin assessing your situation. Start by answering a few questions. What happened? Does it really matter? Do you need to respond at all? What are you trying to accomplish? The objective answers stimulate your thinking process. Not only do you want to formulate an appropriate strategy for your response, you also need to keep things in perspective. “Don’t sweat the small stuff,” should always be kept in mind. Many circumstances, which at first seem upsetting, are

insignificant when compared to the big picture of your life. These situations typically require little or no action. You can just let them go. When action is necessary, keep your objective in mind. Know what it is you are looking to accomplish. Consider all of the options available to you. Identify the pros and cons for each option. Objectivity is essential. It may be helpful bouncing your thoughts off a neutral person who you trust. Before deciding on your appropriate response, make sure you gather all of the facts directly from the source. Using second or third hand information as a basis for your decisions is a faulty strategy which leads to erroneous conclusions. Realizing a short term gain at a long term expense is self-defeating. Take care not to burn bridges if possible. You never know what circumstances and people you will encounter in the future. Well thought out action is more likely to solve problems and preserve relationships than an emotionally fueled reaction. Actions have consequences. Think things through from different perspectives. What impact will your actions have on the

various people and situations involved? Are you acting in your best interest or is there some desire for retribution? Your actions should improve your circumstances, not make them worse. Before deciding on a particular course of action, run the different options through “what if scenarios.” This approach forces you to consider all of the various cause and effect relationships. You want to anticipate what impact your action will have so you are not caught by surprise. How will other people react? What action will they take? What are the benefits and liabilities to you? A well thought out response gives you the best chance of taking appropriate action which yields the desired results. Use these suggestions to help you think before you act.

Today, baby killers roam the streets of Cleveland By Dave Lange Forty-five years later, it still gnaws at me. It was the first time in some 12 months that I had an opportunity to strike up a conversation with an American woman. I told her where I’d been. “So how many babies did you kill?” she asked with a scowl. Instead of a welcome back to the world, I got a welcome to reality, a wakeup call to a different world. The flight from San Francisco to Cleveland was cold and silent. “Baby killers,” they called us. In some ways, America has grown up. Those who serve our country in armed conflicts no longer are damned for the warmongering itches of reckless political leaders. In other ways, America has regressed. Today, baby killers roam the streets of Cleveland. On Oct. 1, 5-month-old Aavielle Wakefield was shot dead as she rode in a car on East 143rd Street with her grandmother and 8-year-old sister, apparently by a gunman firing from an apartment building. On Sept. 15, 3-year-old Major Howard was murdered in a barrage of bullets from a passing car on East 113th Street. On Sept. 4, 5-year-old Ramon Burnett was caught in a deadly crossfire as he played football outside his grandmother’s apartment near Central Avenue. We, the members of a civilized, righteous society, can only hope that these ruthless baby killers are brought to justice.

Correction An item in the People section of the Oct. 19 issue incorrectly listed Sean Rizor as an investigator with the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles. He is assigned to the Ohio State Highway Patrol’s Vehicle Theft and Fraud Unit. He recently completed a twoweek deployment to South Carolina as a volunteer for the Red Cross assisting flood victims.

Guest Editorial We know what the problem is. Putting guns in the hands of punks leads them to the misbegotten idea that they are real men. They are so much less. But we do not know what the answer is. There are those who wish for stricter gun laws to stem the flow of bloody violence. They point to a correlation between feeble gun regulation and high murder rates. Louisiana leads the nation in deadly gunfire by far and also has some of the weakest gun restrictions. They can count Mississippi and Arizona in that same vein. But Maryland has the second-highest murder rate, despite being one of the states with the strictest gun laws. Vermont, Wyoming and South Dakota have very low murder rates but also comparatively weak gun laws. Gun ownership is high in murder-prone Mississippi but also in much-less-violent Idaho and North Dakota. Ohio has some of the nation’s lamer gun laws, yet it is middle of the road in terms of gun deaths and gun ownership.

Twenty state representatives are trying to change that by co-sponsoring Ohio House Bill 147 to put more guns on the streets. There are those who claim any gun regulation violates the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which actually calls for a “well-regulated militia” in establishing a right to bear arms. According to politicians in the pockets of the guns-and-bullets lobby, those arms include assault weapons, whose explicit purpose is to main and kill, but perhaps not surface-to-air missiles, whose purpose is more of the same. In April, a 3-year-old blasted a bullet into the head of 1-year-old Braylon Robinson as they were playing in his mother’s Cleveland home. Authorities called it

an accident. It’s no accident for an adult to stash a loaded handgun beneath a sofa where a toddler’s curious little finger can find the trigger. Will that baby’s real killer be brought to justice? Speaking of justice, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine held a news conference last week to posit about the danger of children getting their hands on marijuanalaced candy if voters approve the pot-legalization initiative on the Nov. 3 ballot. As baby killers roam the streets of Cleveland, politicians pretend to be looking out for the babies. Dave Lange is the former editor of the Chagrin Valley Times.

Are you ready for the commercialization of Pot Tarts? Is there any sane ground between Reefer Madness and the legalization of marijuana for personal pleasure? Baby Boomers experimenting with marijuana in the 60s and 70s were confronted with the addictive danger of pot from their parents whose view of marijuana was influenced by the movie, “Reefer Madness.” The film’s message is that marijuana can lead to hallucinations, violence, rape, suicide and insanity. The same generation that sold us The Vietnam War tried to sell us the danger of pot. The rhetoric about the war didn’t stop Communism, nor did the irrational exhortations about marijuana use stop Boomers from lighting up. Now, “Reefer Madness”, to a lesser degree, is back. The Wood County Prevention Coalition gave a presentation to members of Rossford United Methodist Church titled Considering the impacts of marijuana legalization in Colorado. The five speakers portrayed pot as highly addictive to some and a gateway drug to more dangerous drugs. The statistics were mind boggling: An increase in traffic citations and deaths caused by those under the influence; an increase of teens with mental health problems, an increase in school expulsions and the assertion that today’s marijuana is 80-times stronger than the pot toked by Baby Boomers. Is this the same scare tactic? Why should we listen now? After all, State Issue 3, the proposed amendment to the Ohio Constitution to legalize marijuana use, would benefit those who cannot get pain relief from prescription drugs and others who suffer from seizures. It will allow those who have been convicted of certain non-violent marijuana crimes to have their records expunged. It will allow for those 21 and older to possess an ounce of pot. These are commendable goals. Too many young or unfortunate pot users, because of their conviction, cannot get a federal student loan, obtain certain professional licenses or pursue certain careers. Legalization would also benefit us all by generating an estimated $550 million in annual tax revenue for roads, public safety and economic development. Besides, marijuana use will be constrained by employee drug testing. So, vote yes, right? Not so fast. The prevention coalition makes a strong case to vote no on Issue 3. Point one: Are you ready for commercialization of marijuana? Ask yourself why Responsible Ohio has chosen as its mascot Buddie, a smiling healthy, pumped-up superhero reminis-

Buddy, the Responsible Ohio mascot. (Responsible Ohio photo) cent of Joe Camel? Don’t all our boys want to grow up to look this buff? Sure, they do and the subliminal message is they can by eating and smoking pot products. The following are some of the edibles marketed in Colorado: Twigs (Not Twix); Krondike (Not Klondike); Double Puff Oeo (Not Oreo) and Pot Tarts (Not Pop Tarts). Kyle Clark, the drug-free program director for the prevention coalition, said pot marketing will resemble early marketing used by the cigarette industry. It will be creative, misleading and ubiquitous. “This isn’t about medicinal legalization or recreational legalization. Issue 3 deals with commercialization, packaging and promoting their product which is a drug to addict people for lifelong usage, and the easiest way to do that is to target our youth,” he said. The ads he’s seen feature scantily-clad women and athletes. One ad from a ski resort offered a $1 joint free with a ski pass. Another ad depicted Fred Flintstone with the caption Yabba dabba do. That ad promoted the use of a dab, a THC-concentrated, smokable oil manufactured through a dangerous process using butane. One pot store painted the image of Sesame Street’s Cookie Monster on its wall. This is big business. And, 1,159 retail stores in Ohio will fight for its share of a virtually untapped market. That’s more locations than Starbucks, or McDonalds. You

are deluding yourself if you think this industry will keep a low profile and sell pot in unmarked plastic baggies. If you find this unnerving, consider the following: A short film clip at the beginning of the presentation quoted a secret report issued to one tobacco firm proposing marijuana as an alternate product to bolster profits as cigarette usage was declining. The report concluded tobacco companies, “have the land to grow it, the machines to roll it and package it, the distribution to market it.” Imagine that. Point two: How will healthcare costs be affected? Francesca Leass, a therapist with the Wood County Children’s Research Center, said the THC in today’s marijuana is considerably higher than that of the 60s and 70s. The higher THC means it’s more habit-forming and unpredictable. Some of her young patients have developed long-term psychosis and demonstrate “an inability to quit.” Leass says therapists also are seeing an increase in “a-motivational syndrome.” “We are seeing more kids who don’t want to go to school, have low energy, are depressed and want to sit around and smoke pot all day,” she said. With big business comes big science. Expect THC levels to increase further and delivery systems to explode. Faith Yingling, director of wellness at Bowling Green State University, said students are already using a variety of delivery systems to get high. These include Juju

joints, similar to e-cigarettes; inhalers, marijuana wax and edibles. Yingling said that even if Issue 3 passes, enforcement will not change at BGSU as the university receives federal funds and operates under the Drug Free School Act. Point three: If the beneficiaries of Responsible Ohio become irresponsible in their advertising and products, the state legislature can act to rein them in, like it does with beer, wine and tobacco, correct? Well, no it can’t. Issue 3 is a constitutional amendment. For a contrasting viewpoint, I called my sister, Lisa Santos, who has lived in Denver for nearly 20 years. She lives in a neighborhood which is a 10-minute bike ride from downtown. She is a realtor and a mother of three children, ages 15, 12 and 9. Her kids walk and ride their bikes past numerous pot shops. “You can find pot shops on every corner, especially around the city, but, being in the thick of it, I don’t see more problems with it. I don’t see kids doing it normally than what was before. “It’s always on the news…You have to talk about it more. It necessitates a deeper discussion about drugs.” She counsels her kids about pot like she does alcohol. As far as Reefer Madness overcoming the Mile High City, she hasn’t seen that. “It’s not like you’re walking around Denver and there’s stoned people all over the place,” she said. “It’s not like we have a bunch of vagrants lying around because of it.” The Denver media has aired a lot of stories about how marijuana has helped people deal with pain and seizures. Some stories have depicted families who have moved to Colorado just for the medical use of marijuana. Her biggest concern is the packaging, marketing and abuse of edibles. “There needs to be some kind of limitations and labels in terms of edibles. The hard thing about edibles is there are 12 doses in one brownie, and so you don’t eat the whole brownie. That’s really scary and difficult.” On November 3, you will decide on Issue 3.

Family to appear on “America’s Funniest Home Videos”

By Melissa Burden Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For one local family, Sir Isaac Newton’s Third Law of Motion could not be more true. In fact, a recent family outing was deemed so funny that producers of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” proclaimed the video one of three videos in contention for the $10,000 grand prize. According to Kim Kwiatkowski, of Northwood, a trip with family members to the African Safari Wildlife Park in Port Clinton ended up producing one memorable and hysterical family keepsake, all caught on video. “I have to first say that the African Safari was the most fun a person can have for $8,” Kwiatkowski said. “That really is a little gem out there. A lot of people around here just do not know about it. I am in my 50s and this was my first time there.” In June, Kwiatkowski and her daughter Erin Popovich, husband Chuck and their daughters Rilee, 5, and Ella, 2-1/2, all of Genoa, along with daughter Ashlee Fisher and her son Mason, also 2-1/2 of Oregon, piled in an SUV for the family outing. “When you go there, you get to ride through the park and see the animals up close,” Kwiatkowski explained. “You are also each given food to give to the animals that come up to your car.” The leisurely ride allows people to visit and feed alpaca, bison, deer, guanaco, zebra and llamas, just to name a few of the species found at the park. “The bison pretty much lay their head on your lap to get the food. It is just a great experience,” she said. And then, there was a giraffe. The long necked, unassuming animal also made its way up to the SUV, which is outfitted with a sun roof. “We thought it would be a great idea to feed the giraffe carrots through the sun roof,” Kwiatkowski said. “Erin was videotaping the family feeding the sweet animal when, without warning, the giraffe did something we definitely were not expecting.” The encounter with the giraffe cannot be fully explained. You are going to have to watch the show to see what happened. The only thing that can be said is the giraffe’s response was met with an equal and not so opposite response from Ella. “After the incident, we continued to go through the walking safari,” Kwiatkowski said. “We wanted to complete the tour for the kids.” What resulted was a videotape that

They told us we were one of three finalists...

A trip to African Safari Wildlife Park in Port Clinton resulted in a “funny” experience for the Popovich family, which landed parents Erin and Chuck Popovich, and daughters Rilee (left) and Ella a spot on the Nov. 8 episode of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” (Submitted photo) friends and family members urged Erin to submit to AFV. Erin sent in the video in August and received a call in early September that producers of the show really liked it. “I was in shock,” Erin, a math teacher at Jefferson Junior High school in Washington Local Schools, said. “They had a bunch of questions for us and they told us the producers liked our video, wanted to use it on the show and that we would get a free T-shirt. Two weeks later, they told us we were one of three finalists and that they were flying us out to Los Angeles to tape the show.” “I told my husband and the family and they were all very surprised,” Erin continued. “This was the one and only time we ever did something like this. We never sent in a videotape before, to anything, much less to AFV.” Erin and her family went to L.A. Sept. 24-26 to tape the show. “It was awesome,” Erin said. We arrived Thursday at 3 a.m. our time. We did not have a whole lot of time to sightsee but the girls really liked the palm trees. We also

were able to visit the Manhattan Beach Pier and see the ocean.” Friday was taken up with the taping of the show. Because her children are young, Erin and her daughters spent most of the time in the green room, eating, hanging out and watching a live feed. Her husband Chuck was able to sit in the audience throughout the taping.

“The studio is much smaller than I thought,” Erin said. “We were told that there was between 200-250 audience members. We were all allowed on the set when they announced winners.” For now, the only people who know the outcome are Erin and her immediate family. No one else has been told. “All I can say is that we are in the top three,” she said. “I guess you will have to watch the show to see what happened and the outcome.” Kwiatkowski added that she did not want to know what happened because she was afraid she could not keep it quiet. For now, the incident with the giraffe has left an impression on both Ella and Mason, the babies of the family. “We went to the Toledo Zoo a couple of weeks ago and neither of them wanted to see or have anything to do with the giraffes there,” Kwiatkowski said with a laugh. “I think they may be scarred for life. Ashlee and I just laugh about it. For anyone who knows this family, what happened is just par for the course. We always seem to have an adventure.” Erin agreed. “When we were watching the video in the green room, Ella cried,” she said. “She wants nothing to do with the video or giraffes.” To watch what happened, tune into AFV on Sunday, Nov. 8 at 7 p.m. The show is aired locally on WTVG Channel 13abc.

Fans of good old classic country music will enjoy a trip down Memory Lane with Pickin’ Roots, Saturday, Nov. 7 at 7:30 p.m. at the historic Pemberville Opera House. The band, based in southeast Michigan, plays the “classics” – Hank Williams, George Jones, Merle Haggard others that your dad...and even your granddad enjoyed. The group is comprised of lead singer Larry Rothman; lead guitar player Beau Buchanan; James Dodd, who plays both guitar and bass and sings vocals and harmony; and Tony Ramirez, the “elder statesman” of the group who has been playing music for over 70 years, on rhythm guitar along with vocals and harmony. Joining Larry is his wife Katie Rothman, who plays mandolin, and their 14-year-old daughter Taylor, who makes a guest appearance on vocals. Relatively new to Pickin’ Roots is Joe Weyand, who plays drums. No classic country band would be complete without a pedal steel, and Pickin’ Roots has a good one in Bill Moore. Tickets are available for $12 at Beeker’s General Store, at the door or by contacting Carol at 419-287-4848 or carol@pembervilleoperahouse.org. Visit www.pembervilleoperahouse.org for more information. The performance, part of the Live in the House series, is sponsored in part by the Ohio Arts Council.

Smokey’s BBQ Roadhouse brings genuine BBQ to Oregon By Melissa Burden Press Contributing Editor news@presspublications.com If you think you have to travel across the Maumee River to experience slow smoked, Southern-style barbecue, guess again. Smokey’s BBQ Roadhouse, located in the old Ponderosa Restaurant on Woodville Road, held a soft opening in June, bringing the down-home taste of good, homemade barbecue to Oregon. The restaurant had its grand opening in September. Owned by Joe Carlo, of Millbury and Jim Krueger, of Curtice, Smokey’s is just what the pair thought was needed in the area. “We wanted something really nice for the area,” Krueger said. “There was nothing with really delicious food or a really nice place to go in our area. We all know El Camino and Cousino’s are nice places, but the rest are chain restaurants here.” Krueger describes the food at Smokey’s as “traditional American and southern home cooked.” “All of our food is homemade,” he said. “I mean everything is handmade, in house. We also source our food from around here. The wood we use in our smoker is local. The only thing that is frozen is our tater tots which are sweet potato tots with a marshmallow glaze.” To garner inspiration for their menu, Krueger and Carlo traveled from Detroit to Florida and everywhere in between to research the food, the wood and the types of smokers being used in legendary restau-

Smokey’s owners Joe Carlo and James Krueger. (Press photo by Ken Grosjean) rants, including Slows Bar BQ, in Detroit. “We went everywhere just to see what people were doing,” Krueger said. “We have had people from Tennessee and California come to our restaurant and they have loved it.” The barbecue at Smokey’s is not the typical Kansas City style, dripping in a sweet sauce, Krueger said. In fact, the smoked meats are served “dry,” which may seem like heresy to some folks.

Innovations Portrait Studio

“We like to serve our hand-rubbed, slow-smoked meat dry, without sauce,” he said. “We want people to taste the meat. Of course, if someone wants the sauce cooked on the meat, to have the meat ‘wet,’ we will do that for them.” For those who prefer to add sauce on their own, Smokey’s has three available at the table- regular, spicy barbecue and an apple butter barbecue. The menu runs the gamut from porta-

bella fries, onion straws, cheese curds and sliders to ribs, soups, salads, chicken, brisket, steak and catfish. Burnt ends, extra smoky pork tips in a signature dry rub, are a must for barbecue aficionados. The sides including Southern slaw, hand cut fries, pit pork and beans, homemade mac and cheese and corn bread muffins are also there for the taking. “All of our food is handcrafted and delicious,” Krueger said. “We also have house-made desserts including cheesecakes, fresh pies and our very popular and seasonal fresh apple turnovers. “We totally remodeled the place and have a full bar,” Krueger said. “This is a family oriented place that is casual, fun and laid back.” Smokey’s also caters to the sports loving crowd. The restaurant has nine TVs along with an indoor/outdoor patio to watch your favorite game while enjoying your barbecue. “Business has been very good,” he said. “We really have not done a ton of advertising yet and we have people beating down our door to come in. A lot of our business has been word of mouth so far.” Smokey’s has both daily and regular specials. Smokey’s BBQ Roadhouse is located at 2080 Woodville Rd., in Oregon. Hours are Sundays, 11 a.m.-9 p.m.; Monday through Wednesday, 11 a.m.-10 p.m. and Thursday through Saturday 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Call 419-725-2888 or visit the restaurant’s Facebook page, www.facebook.com/ smokeysbbqroadhouse for information on current specials and events.

“Little Bavaria”

Frankenmuth a “destination” for the holiday season & beyond Frankenmuth, the mid-Michigan town that oozes Santa Claus every day of the year, just got a ladder. But it’s not for Santa. He’s still getting up on rooftops and down chimneys just fine, thank you. It’s for fish. Not to worry, Zehnder’s Restaurant and Bavarian Inn, these fish won’t be a threat to your famously fantastic all-you-can-eat chicken dinners. This fish ladder is to help walleye get up and over the dam that’s preventing them from going up the Cass River to 73 miles of historic spawning waters. That ladder – 13 years in the making – was dedicated Oct. 27 giving all those walleye the boost they need. Bavarian-flavored Frankenmuth is famous far and wide for the giant family-owned Bronner’s CHRISTmas Store – note the spelling, which reflects the strong spiritual roots of the Bronner family – and, of course, for those chicken dinners. Then there are all those other restaurants serving up great food – places like Tiffany’s that still look like the turn-of-the-19th-century lumberman’s bar and restaurant it once was. And there’s shopping all up and down Main Street – dozens of shops ranging from the Frankenmuth Clock Shop that’s festooned with German-made cuckoo clocks, to Kern’s Sausage with its coolers chock full of homemade Braunschweiger, blood sausage, bratwurst and, well, you-name-it. It’s that kind of town. Homegrown. Proud. Built on the foundation of a strong German Lutheran work ethic and garnished with cheese, sausage and the homebrewed beer to be found at Sullivan’s and, of course, the Frankenmuth Brewery where brewmaster Steve Buszka hovers over the array of large fermenters like they were his children. Dorothy Zehnder sets the pace. At almost 94, the matriarch of the family that owns the Bavarian Inn, still works six days a week in the restaurant’s kitchen and loves every minute of it.

The town has flourished in the years since those German pioneers settled the area while the Cass River has flowed into the background. “It was no longer considered a working river,” said Sheila Stamiris of Frankenmuth’s Downtown Development Authority, which spearheaded the fish ladder project as part of a green initiative for the river. “Lumbermen used to float logs downstream for milling, it’s not used for waterpower anymore; people don’t fish it.” Not that the Cass needs a lot of clean up, mind you. Water quality is good. It’s a nice, peaceful river that flows flat into the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge and the Saginaw River. Too warm for salmon and trout, the Cass supports walleye, crappie, and a few lake sturgeon. “The dam interfered with fish, preventing them from going upstream to spawn,” Sheila said. “The ladder is a constructed rock rapids, a design that’s often used in Minnesota and the Dakotas as a way to manage fish movement at dams. “Our fish aren’t jumpers,” she said. Now they can swim over the dam thanks to successive arcs of stone starting 300 feet downstream and stepping up as they approach the dam. And it’s clear sailing for fish and the town. “We foresee eco-tourism emerging,” Sheila said. “The development of biking, walking, and water trails for canoes and kayaks that connect with Shiawassee, which has been called the ‘Everglades of the North.’” It’s got the town excited, including Jamie Furbush, president and CEO of Frankenmuth Chamber of Commerce.

Thank You On October 4th, Hidden Hills Golf Club hosted a benefit for Tom Avery. Tom resides in Genoa, has Pulmonary Fibrosis and is currently awaiting a call for his lung transplant at Cleveland Clinic. Over $11,600 dollars was raised for Tom and all proceeds that are not used by Tom will be passed on to another community member in need. Following Tom’s benefit, on October 17th Hidden Hills hosted their first annual Car Show/Golf Scramble for ALS to stand with Steve Drossell’s family as he fights his battle. Steve is a resident of Woodville and his benefit raised around $10,000 dollars. A great “TEAM” effort in both of these benefits speaks volumes for our community as everyone came together in two short weeks to raise over $20,000 dollars. With these two gentlemen being friends so many of the same faces have gone above and beyond to support these men. Tom and Steve, along with their families, would like to thank everyone for all their help and generous support. A special thank you to TarpStop, and also Cindy and Kevin at Hidden Hills Golf Club for the hard work and generosity in these two benefits!

The Avery Family and Drossell Family
