Firelands Regional Medical Center Outlines Need for Flu Vaccines

—————— Library, Parks & Rec, Gardening Page 4 —————— Schools Page 5

Firelands Regional Medical Center is encouraging community members to take preventative actions against the seasonal flu virus and the 2009 H1N1 virus to prevent widespread outbreaks, based on a prediction by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that this year’s flu season will be early and possibly severe. “Once the H1N1 vaccine becomes available at Firelands Regional Medical Center, Firelands will offer the vaccine free of charge,” says Susan Cramer, RN, Infection Control at Firelands. The H1N1 vaccine is recommended for the following at-risk groups. Priority will be giving to individuals within these groups as recommended by the CDC: Pregnant women because they are at higher risk of complications and can potentially provide protection to infants who cannot be vaccinated. Household contacts and caregivers for children

younger than 6 months of age because infants younger than 6 months are at higher risk of influenza-related complications and cannot be vaccinated. Vaccination of those in close contact with infants less than 6 months old will lessen the chances they will pass H1N1 on to the infants. Health care and emergency medical services personnel because infections among health care workers have been reported and this can be a potential source of infection for vulnerable patients. Also, increased absenteeism among health care professionals could reduce health care system capacity. Children 6 months through 18 years of age because there have been many cases of pandemic H1N1 flu in children and they are in close contact with one another in school and day care settings, which increases the likelihood of disease spread. Young adults 19 through 24 years of age because there have been many cases of pandemic H1N1 flu in these healthy young adults and they often live, work and study in close proximity, and they are a frequently mobile population. Persons aged 25 through 64 years who have health conditions associated with higher risk of medical complications from influenza. Once enough pandemic H1N1 vaccine becomes available, others will be able to reHuron City residents will get a chance to meet ceive the vaccine as well.

surfaces washed down regularly with an antimicrobial cleaner will also help to lessen contact with flu viruses.” Additional good respiratory etiquette and hygiene habits include: Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze and then throw the tissue away. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or upper sleeve. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze or use the restroom and before eating. If you are not near soap and water, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Try not to touch your eyes, nose or mouth as germs often spread this way. Stay away from people who are sick. If you get sick, stay home from work or school. Michael Blank, MD, Infectious Disease physician at Firelands, recommends that all residents get the seasonal flu vaccine, and those in the target groups get the H1N1 vaccine as soon as it is available. “Symptoms of both the seasonal flu virus and 2009 H1N1 virus are very similar. Symptoms include a cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, fatigue, chills and headache; according to the CDC, a significant amount of people infected with the 2009 H1N1 viruses also experience diarrhea and vomiting. The best way to prevent getting the flu or spreading the flu is to get vaccinated.” The Ohio Department of Health urges everyone who would like to protect themselves from the flu to receive a seasonal flu vaccination. The seasonal flu vaccine will not protect a person from the 2009 H1N1 virus, but it will help fight infection from other seasonal flu viruses. For more information about seasonal flu and the 2009 H1N1 virus, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at www.cdc.gov, the Ohio Department of Health at www.ohd.ohio.gov or contact your local health department. Residents can also continue to visit www.firelands.com for information about seasonal flu vaccine and the 2009 H1N1 vaccine as they become available.

Artino again asks for measurable goals and objective before 2010 budget. Without clear direction, measurable goals and objectives, the City will flounder when it can flourish. Taxpayer dollars will NOT be used as effectively and citizens will remain in the dark. Council cannot stay with the same mindset today. With your support I will deliver a strategic action plan for all to see.

Schools News from St. Peter School Junior High Retreat

On Friday, Oct. 9, St. Peter Junior High students took part in one of the 800 youth retreats offered throughout the year by the NET Ministries. NET Ministries is an international youth ministry that challenges young Catholics to love Christ and embrace the life of the Church. The team serving St. Peter’s arrived on Wednesday evening, met their host families and spent Wednesday evening through Friday morning in and about Huron. Friday’s retreat day found them sharing their faith through large and small group presentations and discussions, music, drama, personal faith sharing and prayer. The young adult NET volunteers give a year of their life in the ministry. They begin their year of service with an intense five-week training program, after which they are put in teams and sent out across the United States to share their faith. Students making the retreat this year said they were especially impressed with the sincerity and enthusiasm of the

NET team. Elaina Hemker, whose family hosted two of the team members, shared that her entire family was very impressed with the commitment of the team members and saw them as a great example of practicing their faith. MaggieMurphy said: “They really helped us to open up in prayer and made us aware that God can always be an important part of our lives, no matter how busy we are with other activities. It was a good day.”

Fire Safety

Students in preschool through fourth grade hosted the Huron firemen on Tuesday of Fire Prevention Week. Students were instructed in fire safety and were able to see how all of the equipment a fire official has to wear to be safe while fighting fires. Many of the students shared stories of ways that they practice fire safety in their homes. Students had taken part in the Fire Safety Poster Contest ners included: Kindergartner Joe Vacca, first-grader Riley earlier in the month and winners were treated to firemen Fry, second-grader McKenzie Quinn, third-grader McKenT-shirts, Kalahari passes and lunch at McDonald’s. Winzie Smercina and fourth-grader Lucas Findley.

Education “in the field”

For St. Peter School students, field trips are an integral part of learning the curriculum and field trips were a big part of the schedule this past week. To begin the “tripping”, sixth-graders packed up and left for Mohican School-in-the-Outdoors in Butler, Ohio on Wednesday morning. Before they returned on Friday afternoon they had experienced many outdoor activities. Survival skills, including building a shelter was Lucas Pajk’s favorite while his brother Greg really liked the free choice times, especially caring for the animals at the camp. Teacher Laurie Legando, who also attended the three-day camp, noted that the three days in the outdoors gives students the ability to excel in a different environment, often allowing new leaders to emerge from the class.

Back to the Wild

Second- and third-graders who are working on their animal units in science, visited Mona Rutger at Back to the Wild on Friday. Back to the Wild is a “get well place” for injured animals where they can recuperate and are rehabilitated to go back to their natural habitats after an injury. Students were able to see several animals including a bald eagle and two bobcats. A butterfly emerged from the chrysalis stage while they were there. They learned that the bear is the largest wild animal in Ohio and studied habitats of several of the other animals native to our area.

Lady Tigers Take Eagle Invite Title On Saturday, the Huron volleyball team traveled to Oregon, Ohio, as one of eight teams to compete in the Eagle Invitational at Clay High School. The Tigers went into the tournament seeded second, but had little trouble working their way through a field that included Bellevue, Brookside, Clay, Eastwood, Genoa, Keystone, and Southview. While looking sluggish early on, Huron would not lose a game the entire day. The opening match was against the 4-10 Southview Cougars of Sylvania. At first, the Tigers looked like a team that got up early and just completed a 90-minute bus ride. Game 1 started with a 7-7 tie. Huron then went on an 8-2 run to roll onto a 25-14 win. The second and final game of the match began much the same way. Coach Wood had to call time with his team only up 12-10, to get their heads back on the task at hand.

Junior Taylor Slauterbeck, whose play during the second half of the season has been especially strong, made a couple big points that led the Tiger’s on a 10-3 run to put away the pesky Cougars, 25-15. Huron’s semifinal opponent was the 13-3 Brookside Cardinals. Definitely a step up in competition, the Cardinals hung tight with the Tigers at 11-10 during the opening game. Jesse Miedema came through for Huron with a couple of aces, leading her team on 9-4 run to take a 20-14 lead. Shortly after, her team would win 25-20. During game two, Brookside again held tight with the Tigers early on. At the 13-11 point, Huron went on a 5-0 run, forcing the Cardinals to call time to try and regain momentum. Unfortunately for Brookside, Jesse Miedema came out of the break firing with a trio of kills. At 24-13, Huron’s Katlyn Sommer served an ace for the second

match win. The Finals pitted the top seeded, Eastwood Eagles (16-1), who were ranked 15th in Division II, against the 15-3 Huron Tigers (ranked 17th in Division III). The Tigers came out of the gate quickly, 4-0, stunning the Eagles into taking an early time out. The break did nothing to slow down Huron momentum, which now looked as sharp as they had all year long. Miedema fired an ace to give the Lady Tigers a 10-2 lead. She followed that up with a kill, forcing Eastwood to call time at 15-6. Huron would then close out with a 10-4 run and a 25-10 win. The final game was almost a carbon copy of the first with the Eagles falling behind 10-3 and calling time. Taylor Slauterbeck came right out of the break with a kill and the Tigers rolled to a 22-8 lead. Two more spikes by Miedema allowed Huron to close out the tournament with a 25-13 win.

Melissa is an important leader and senior on the Varsity volleyball team. While she isn’t that full ride college scholarship star athlete, coaches will tell you that it is student athletes like Melissa who really make the difference between getting beat at Sectionals and making it to Regionals. Most Huron teams will have that star athlete(s) but it’s the drive, intelligence, and desire of athletes like “Mo” who determine the true success of a team for its coach and school. Q: WHAT EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN? Melissa: I also play softball and basketball and I am the Senior Class President and a member of the National Honor Society.

Q: HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS HELPED YOU GROW AS A PERSON? Melissa: It has most definitely made me stronger mentally and physically, along with improving my leadership skills, and helping me to become a better allaround person. Balancing three sports and academics has pushed my time management skills, too.
