Huron Police Seek Applicants to Citizen Police Academy The Huron Police Department is taking its community policing efforts to a new level with the start of a Citizen Police Academy in October. The Citizen Police Academy is designed to teach residents about general law enforcement topics and about the Huron Police Department. “We want to be able to interact more with the community and this is one of our opportunities to do so,” said John Majoy, Acting Chief of Police. The CPA will meet every Monday from 6:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. starting on October 12 through November 30. Students will receive instruction on crime scenes, firearms, traffic crash investigation, marine patrol, computer
crimes and more. The classes will be taught by Huron Police Officers with a class taught by Huron Municipal Court Judge William Steuk and Huron City Prosecutor Laura Alkire. A portion of the class will be a patrol partnership where students will ride in patrol vehicles with Huron Police Officers. “Most people do not know what a typical day is like for the Huron Police Department and this is a chance for them to learn about it.” Majoy said. He also added this will be an opportunity to enhance the Huron Police Department’s Neighborhood Block Watch Program. “By having more eyes and ears, along with open lines of communication, together we can keep our community
safe.” Majoy added. The class is open to all persons that either work or live in the City of Huron. Applicants must be 18 years or older and free from a criminal record. Individuals running for political office for any contested fall race will not be accepted. All applicants must pass a background check prior to admission and will be notified in writing of the status of their acceptance. If you are interesting in applying, you can call the Huron Police Department at (419) 433-4114 or e-mail a request for application to huronpolice@cityofhuron.org. The class size will be limited and those interested are encouraged to apply early.

No occupants were home at the time of the fire and two dogs were found during the primary search. The fire was quickly knocked down, but not before extensive damage to the contents and moderate damage to the structure.
This fire should be a reminder to all residents, to have and regularly check the operability of their smoke detectors. During periods of sleep, smoke detectors are often the only means of alerting occupants of fire.

Around Town FROM THE BENCH
Stopping for school buses By Judge Bill Steuk, Huron Municipal Court As school is now in session, school buses are transporting students to and from school. We all know there are traffic laws regarding when drivers must stop for a school bus. Recently, we have had cases in our Court where drivers fail to obey these traffic laws. This article will look at these laws to give drivers a better understanding of when and how they are applied. Ohio Revised Code § 4511.75 and Huron City Ordinance 331.38 apply to stopping for school buses. A driver of a vehicle who either meets or overtakes from either direction, any school bus stopped for purposes of receiving or discharging any school child, must stop at least ten (10) feet from the front or rear of the school bus as the case may be. The driver may not proceed until the school bus resumes motion, or until the school bus driver signals the driver to proceed. A school bus driver is not supposed to start the bus in motion until the student reaches a place of safety on the child’s or person’s residence side of the road. One exception to this law occurs for school buses stopped on a highway divided into four (4) or more traffic lanes. A driver of a vehicle does not have to stop for a school bus approaching from the opposite direction. However, drivers who will overtake the school bus driving in the same direction must stop. School bus drivers operating on divided highways or highways of four (4) or more traffic lanes are supposed to receive and discharge students on the side of the roadway where their residence is located. This law applies not only to students but also, persons attending programs offered by community boards of mental health, and county boards of mental retardation and developmental disabilities, or a child attending a program offered by a head start agency. A driver, who violates this section, can be charged with an unclassified misdemeanor. This means that a degree of misdemeanor (such as first, second, third, etc.) was not assigned to this offense by the Ohio Legislature. The Legislature has established that a fine for this violation may not exceed Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00). A violation of this law is not waiverable, which means an offender must appear in Court rather that just pay a fine. A judge does have the ability to impose a license suspension, which can be up to one (1) year in length. I hope this gives you a better understanding of the traffic laws regarding stopping for a school bus. These laws are designed to allow children to safely board and exit a school bus. Please drive carefully.
Fifth Annual Girls’ Night Out Has New Feature for Creative Minds The fifth annual Girls’ Night Out committee has added a fun, new contest that will allow local creative types to design a unique artwork to display at the event. What is the canvas? Participants will be asked to decorate a bra in whatever fashion their creative juices take them. “The use of any materials such as fabric, beads, paints, clay, feathers, etc. is encouraged as long as the finished project is tasteful,” said Doug Studer, co-owner of Curves in Sandusky and co-founder of this event with his wife, Gretchen. “Cancer is a very serious subject and one that has touched many of us, whether personally, through a family member, or a friend. The Girls’ Night Out committee decided to add the ’Bras for a Cause’ contest as a way to laugh in the face of this serious subject and raise money for a worthy cause”
Girls’ Night Out is a charity event that benefits Cancer Services, FisherTitus Mammography Fund, Firelands Regional Medical Center Cancer Program Fund and North Coast Cancer Foundation. Bras will be displayed during this year’s event scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 28 at the Kalahari Resort Convention Center, U.S. 250, Sandusky. Bras must be submitted, along with an entry form and a $15 non-refundable entry free no later than Wednesday, Sept. 30. For an entry form and a list of contest rules, please visit girlsnightoutcharity.com or call 419-4991308. Winners of the “Bras for a Cause” will be selected by popular vote. Girls’ Night Out attendees can vote for their favorite bras for $1 per vote. In addition, there will be a silent auction for the decorated bras during Girls’ Night

Artist Fellowship from the Ohio Arts Council and a Fulbright Lectureship in American Literature to Italy. He is a requested speaker on creative writing, publishing, American Romantic writers, Zen Buddhist writings, and Ohio and working-class literature. He and his wife Ann, a counselor and professor emerita of Nursing at Toledo University of Ohio, are the parents of three adult children and live along the shores of Lake Erie in Huron, Ohio. Novelist Annabel Thomas describes The Long River Home: “In this fine Appalachian novel, Larry Smith chronicles four generations of McCalls, their joys and sorrows, their sins and their nobility… Such regional fiction has always been about people: their connections with one another, their home place, their struggles to survive and to prosper. It’s all here, set, in the grand tradition of Wendell Berry and Conrad Richter, against the Ohio landscape: its hills and its rivers, its frontier beginnings and its later industrial development. We care about the place and its people.” Michigan author Jeff Vande Zande states, “The Long River Hometraces the growth of the McCall family tree from rural Southern Ohio to the industrial Ohio River Valley. Wild and conflicted,
Andrew McCall brings sons into the world who bring sons into the world…. each as trapped by the McCall ancestry as he is buoyed by it.

INTRODUCING FOLEY FISH COMPANY FREE
SAMP LES!!!
Any fish company can say they have the best fish but only one can and has delivered consistently high quality fish since 1906 - Foley Fish. What makes Foley Fish better than others? Our desire to be the best and the steps we take to insure only the best fish gets our name on it. Here are just a few of the ways Foley Fish makes itself better. Buying Freshness & Flavor - Foley customers are assured of freshness because Foley buyers hand select only "one and two day fish," that is, those fish most BLUE HILL recently caught, the freshest catch. By contrast, most Foley competitors purchase fish which averages four days old. Foley's acquires these prime quality fish by BAY ROPE either buying only from one or two day boats or by paying a nominal premium to get the 'pick of the catch' from boats out longer. No fish is accepted by Foley's MUSSELS! "FRESH" until carefully scrutinized for quality and freshness. ALL NATURAL SEA SCALLOPS Foley customers are guaranteed exceptional flavor because of Foley research into the 'vineyards' of the sea. Hundreds of taste tests have taught us that fish GEORGE'S WHILE of the same species can vary tremendously in flavor depending on the fishing grounds from which they are harvested. To use an analogy to wine, the flavor BANK SUPPLIES distinction is predicated on the fishing grounds (vineyard) that are unique because of the nutrients, the quality of the water and the amount of sunlight. Foley's LAST! has an entire line of Signature Fish which have a distinct flavor superiority owning to their unique fishing grounds. This line of Signature Fish allows Foley customers to differentiate their establishment by serving a superior, unmatched selection of seafood to their customers. Come and taste the difference!!!

Artificial Nest to Replace Fallen “Dutch Eagles” Nest
Fresh Sweet Cherries Available
Q
Peaches early July
Several members of the community have come together to install an artificial nest in Perkins Township, Erie County with hopes of replacing the beloved “Dutch Eagles Nest.” The bald eagle nest located outside of the Old Dutch Tavern on Perkins Avenue fell out of an eastern cottonwood tree in early June, 2009. The nesting pair, commonly referred to as the “Dutch Eagles”, has been monitored by local residents and bird enthusiasts from many areas of the state and country since 2006.
After the nest fell, discussion began among community members whether something could be done to restore the eagles’ roost. Discussion led to a plan to construct an artificial nest, a course of action that has proven successful in other locations by replacing fallen or damaged nests, expanding raptor populations, or relocating breeding pairs away from human activity. Although the eagles’ acceptance of a newly constructed home is not guaranteed, it was decided that it was worth a try.

Driving to Vermilion on Friday evening for the start of the 2009 Huron Varsity Football season had an ominous feel to it. I arrived at the site in the midst of a torrential down pour, an announcement that the scoreboard was down, and my car was being directed to park in the middle of the Lake Superior of mud puddles. I was wearing cloth tennis shoes and cursing the fact that while normally, three umbrellas can be found scattered through out my car, I was able to locate a single one. I wasn’t sure want to expect from the game because the Tigers had no returning starters on either side of the ball, and a mediocre performance in the Bucyrus scrimmage. But as often happens in life, things weren’t near as bad as it seemed. The rain, while steady, was a comfortable, warm summer shower. Considering the conditions, on hand was a nice size, good spirited Huron crowd, anxious to see their new team. And it quickly became evident that the young football team was fired up and ready to play. As for my shoes, well…I didn’t even notice. The Tiger defense, which would play well all night, made the first of four interceptions early in the game. Jarod Blakely made a nice play on an errant Sailor pass and scrambled off a nice return. Senior running back Derek Dowell helped Huron capitalize with a seven yard touchdown run. Dowell
would run the ball 17 times to lead the team with 110 yards and three touchdowns. In fact the Huron offense went exclusively with its running game. Led by its solid line play, and combined with the slick playing conditions, the Tigers only threw two passes all night. Vermilion trailed 7 – 0 after the first quarter. On the second play of the second quarter Huron made a big time sack by senior Zack Grieves that stopped the Sailor drive forcing them to punt. All night Grieves seemed to be in middle of much of the trouble Huron’s defense created for Vermilion. The Tigers proceeded by going three and out. On
the ensuing punt, at the 8:23 mark, the Sailor special teams blocked the punt and recovered the ball on the Huron 30 yard line. The first play was a quick pitch that was never handled well and recovered by Grieves of the Tigers. The visitor’s offense took over on their own 45. Led by Dowell and a hard working offensive line, Huron drove in for another rushing touchdown (a 31 yd run by Dowell) to take a 14-0 lead into half time. The third quarter began with an interception by Huron’s Jake Hillman of a Sailor pass on third down and long. On the second play following the turnover, Hillman dashed to the end zone from the Vermilion 40 yard line. As the field deteriorated further, Huron mustered one more drive that was capped off by Dowell’s third trip to the end zone. This time from the three yard line at the 6:57 mark of the third period. The last Tiger score was brought about following Dylan Corwin’s fourth period interception and return. A few plays later, sophomore Anthony Lane kicked a 27 yard field goal to give the visitor’s a 31-0 advantage. The Huron defensive shut out was dashed with just 1:42 left in the game by a 70 yard run from Vermilion’s Anthony Budka. But all in all, it was a very strong effort, in sloppy conditions, by the Tigers on both sides of the ball to retain the win oar in this lake shore rivalry.

Nancy Bloor did not lose a single game in any of these three matches leading her team to a 2-1 record over this stretch. Huron’s only lose this past week was to SBC rival Clyde Flyers, 3-2. Sophomore Lynsie Schwerer won two hard fought singles matches of her own against Clyde and Edison. She gained valuable experience in the matches which both required three sets and a tie breaker.
