The Muscular Dystrophy Association issued fun arrest warrants for local business and civic leaders on June 15, 2011. This included Amy Donaldson, the Administrator of Admiral's Pointe Nursing & Rehabilitation who exceeded her $1600 goal, and 36 more Erie County leaders. The group of communityminded residents was put “behind bars” for MDA’s signature Lock-Up fundraiser at The Sandusky Yacht Club. Accused of having big hearts and being heavily armed with kindness, these “jailbirds” helped raise more than $20,000 for families affected by neuromuscular diseases in the Sandusky area. In order to be released, each jailbird’s “bail” was set at $1600 and the money was raised by encouraging friends, family, co-workers and business contacts to make contributions to MDA. The funds raised will help MDA assist hundreds of local individuals and families living with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related muscle diseases throughout North Eastern Ohio. The Lock-Up also will help send Ohio youngsters to MDA’s summer camp at Camp Cheerful in Strongsville , OH where all activities are designed for kids with limited mobility, and many volunteers provide the one-on-one assistance needed to optimize participation. Some activities include horseback riding, swimming, sports, and arts and
crafts. MDA is the nonprofit health agency dedicated to curing muscular dystrophy, ALS and related diseases by funding worldwide research. The Association also provides unparalleled health care services; advocates for the families it serves; and invests significant resources educating the medical and scientific communities, as well as the general public,
about neuromuscular diseases affecting more than 1 million Americans. MDA maintains a network of some 200 hospital-affiliated clinics — 38 of which are designated as MDA/ALS centers — throughout the country. In Cleveland , OH families can receive excellent care for progressive muscle diseases at the MDA Clinic in MetroHealth Medical Center .

The Inspiration 5K Fun Run/ Walk is a unique event. Part fundraiser/part Huron Parks & Recreation program, this event inspires us at Parks & Recreation year after year! The Inspiration Run is a noncompetitive event that draws family, friends, and groups who come to support the cause, or just use the event as a kick-off of their own inspiration to live a healthier lifestyle. We see many families who make it a “family day” by participating in the run and then planning a family picnic in the park afterwards. Local businesses contribute as well by donating water, fruit & snacks for our participants; and volunteers help out at water stations and registration. The Story Behind the Run…. Aubrey Miller and her friends were talking about how hard it was for them to stay motivated to stay in good shape and be healthy. Like many of us, they couldn’t find the drive they needed to get back to a healthy lifestyle. Then they remembered how much Michelle Saunders and Ryan Foss used to motivate them. Michelle and Ryan were killed in an automobile accident in March 2002 at the age of 19. They decided to use Michelle and Ryan’s inspiration as motivation to get in shape and be healthy so they organized the first Inspiration Run with the help of Huron Parks and Recreation. The Inspiration Run 2005 was a great success! Each year since then the Inspiration Run has spotlighted a person or cause to be the Inspi-

ration Story for that year. Since 2005, The Inspiration Run has raised money for several different causes including: Saunders/Foss Memorial Scholarship, Juvenile Diabetes Association, Diabetes Youth Services, Kirsten Berger Fund, Laptops for Kids (Cleveland Clinic FoundationChildren’s Cancer Unit), Brenda Wilhelm Fund, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Sara Jane Bartlett Nursing Scholarship, Huron Football Scholarship Fund, The Tom Stallings Fund and The Kenneth J. Kessler Memorial Fund. If you so choose, additional donations for any of the above causes can be made and will be accepted in the donation area near the race check-in. Our Inspiration Story for 2011… This year, the Inspiration Run will honor Asher Nikolajevs and his family and his courageous battle against Batten’s Disease. In order to help off-set growing financial costs, this year, 50% of Inspiration Run 2011 registration fees will go to Asher Nikolajevs and his family. The Inspiration Run will take place on June 25, 2011 at Fabens Park. Check-in/Registration from 7:00 a.m.-7:45 a.m., with the run at 8:00 a.m. Registration Fee $10. Pre-Registration is preferred.

Huron Hometown News | Thursday, June 23, 2011
Around Town Letter to the Editor It’s a sad day for ALL of Huron. After reading in Wednesday’s paper the shenanigans that took place at the Huron Council meeting Tuesday evening regarding Police Chief Majoy’s departure from office, I was sickened. I applaud those who spoke up in Johns defense, and council should be ashamed they allowed such an injustice to take place on their watch. John is a born and raised Huronite and a clear Huron success story, He followed the footsteps of many of his relatives in Law enforcement and took it to the highest possible level with higher education, a flawless record, and a great role model for kids. My third grade daughter from St. Peters school said it was not fair for Chief Majoy and recalled having him visit her class just two weeks ago during a school program. Her wisdom is dead on and the folks in Huron should not stand for this unjustified action. The citizens of Huron have no contract with Andy White and Council to prevent them from telling the truth and expressing their dissatisfaction with their elected offi-
cials. If the elected officials in Huron want to remain in office they should listen to their constituents. They should start by listening to how council should address Andy White and the precarious position he has placed the city in with respect to the loss of a great public servant. I would like to think that Mr. White also is an “at will” employee serving at the pleasure of council. The voters of Huron should demand through their council representatives the resignation of Mr. White. While I reside on Kelleys Island, I grew up in Huron, Our business is headquartered in Huron, and recently my wife and I choose Huron St. Peters School for our children. We made these decisions because Huron is a great place and a safe place in part because of the leadership of John Majoy. It’s time for the GOOD PEOPLE OF HURON to stand up for THE GOOD PEOPLE OF HURON. Where I come from, it’s what we do. Mayor Rob Quinn – Kelleys Island, Ohio

McCormick Junior High Honors Academic Achievers
By Lisa Yako The Twenty-Fourth Annual McCormick Junior High School Academic Dinner was held on Thursday, May 19. The purpose of the annual dinner is to recognize those students who have succeeded academically. To be invited to the dinner, a student must have been on the honor roll for three quarters. Inclusion on the honor roll requires that a student have a 3.5 GPA with no grade lower than a B. This year, there were 93 seventh- and eighth-grade students who achieved this goal and were invited to the academic dinner. The evening began with a few words from McCormick principal, Mr. Chad Carter. Those in attendance were then treated to a vocal solo by Allison Brownell, a flute solo by Alison Litz, and a clarinet ensemble performance featuring Ashtyn Stadler, Renata Kurtz, Olivia Iannantuono, and Maggie Nelson. The performances were followed by a dinner prepared for the students and their parents. After dinner, each student was individually recognized and presented with a certificate from the President’s Education Awards Program. The evening concluded with an invited presentation by Mrs. Anne Hinton. Mrs. Hinton, retired director of the Huron Public Library, attended her final three years of high school in Huron and raised her daughters here. She spoke to the students about reaching beyond their comfort zone to try new things and, most importantly, about kindness. After having a somewhat difficult time in school and experiencing bullying as a youth, she challenged the students to be kind to everyone and said, “Don’t dismiss the late bloomers- you never know who they will become.” Further, Mrs. Hinton tearfully
stated, “Kindness costs you nothing. It enriches those you touch.” The students who were honored at this year’s academic dinner were: Colleen Allen, Jillian Balde, Karl Bates IV, Brooke Bauer, John Baus, Abigail Black, Delaney Black, Hannah Blackwell, Jep Bloor, Jamie Borger, Alexis Brady, Allison Brownell, Leo Bunting, Megan Cammalleri, Austin Campbell, Hannah Cantrill, Jessica Carroll, Sarah Carroll, Breanna Chaffin, Kaelin Cockrell, Megan Decker, Michael Delahunt, Dean Dickirson, Victoria Fantozzi, James Faunda, Deena Fenske, Grant Ferrell, Benjamin Fries, Jacob Fries, Bailey Gadd, Monika Giardina, Lisa Gies, Paige Graham, Kylie Greulich, Kiersten Hammond, Danzell Harris, Samantha Hebert, Michael Huffman, Shannon Hughes, Katherine Humphreys, Olivia Iannantuono, Samuel James, Camille Karren, Alisia Kelley, Thomas King, Kyle Kovach, Kaityln Krueger, Renata Kurtz, Nicholas Lachowyn, Emily Lance, Kaitlin Lance, Zoey Lehrer, Alexandria Lenyo, Alison Litz, Sean Martin, Graham Mast, Hannah Miller, Madison Mize, Chase Mosijowsky, Hollie Mueller, Cody Myers, Wyatt Myers, Eric Myles, Margaret Nelson, Gabrielle Norcross, Kelsey Ohm, Madison Orzech, Jennifer Paiz, Bo Pettegrew, Franchesca Reiber, Christina Rivera, Tyler Sasala, Brodie Sennish, Samuel Sluga, Nicholas Smercina, Gloria Souter, Ashtyn Stadler, Emma Steinmetz, Caleb Stidham, Erin Stoner, Adam Storer, Rylee Stradtman, Anthony Studans, Julia Studer, Anna Tanaka, Theresa Tomczyk, Logan Weber, Eric Weir, Morgan Welborn, Jacob Wise, Audra Wisehart, Jenna Witter, and Blake Wysocki. Congratulations to these students on their achievement.
