Veterans Day Observed On Friday, November 11, 2011 our Nation will observe the men and women who have and will continue to serve our country. It will be a day to honor our Military Veterans and thank them for their dedication to our country and their service. An observation of such has been acknowledged since November 11, 1919. Then U.S. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11, 1919 as the first commemoration of “Armistice Day” known today as Veterans Day. The day’s observations included parades, public gathering and a brief pause at 11:00 am with a moment of silence to honor those who served. It was on this date one year prior, a truce was made between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War. November 11, 1918 was the date that marked the end of the “Great War” even though the Treaty of Versailles was signed several months later. In 1954 President Dwight Eisenhower changed the name from Armistice Day to Veterans Day to honor all US Veterans not just those of WWI (1917-1918) and WWII (1941-1945). In 1968, Congress decided Veterans Day should fall on the fourth Monday in October for consistency instead of November 11th. That law went into effect in 1971, however; this was changed in 1975 when President Gerald Ford returned Veterans Day to November 11, due to the important historical significance of the date. Today, Veterans Day is observed as a federal holiday on November 11th. Military Veterans from all wars: WWI (1917-1918), WWII (1941-1945), Korean War (1950-1953), Vietnam War (1964-1975),

Gulf War (1990-1991) and Global War on Terrorism (2001-present) are honored and observed. On Friday, November 11, 2011 at 11:00 am pause for a brief moment to pay your respects to those who have served and those who continue to serve our country. Show your support and appreciation by honoring and thanking a Veteran.
Exploring Old Woman Creek By Lisa Yako Old Woman Creek National Estuarine Research Reserve in Huron has many options for experiencing the outdoors. The barrier beach, located along Cleveland Road, has parking for about 5 cars and is an amazing place to visit. The beach is forever chang-
ing with the prevailing winds and the powerful waves. For most of the year, Old Woman Creek empties into Lake Erie, but when water levels are low, the beach separates the creek from the lake. At the visitors’ center, located farther east on Cleveland Road, there are approximately 2.5 miles of hiking trails and a viewing deck overlooking the wetland. Often, birders are seen at the deck with their binoculars and cameras trying to catch a glimpse of the plentiful but majestic eagles. My favorite means of exploring Old Woman Creek is by canoe. Anyone with a registered canoe or kayak can obtain a permit to explore the wetland. Permits are issued at the visitors’ center during normal business hours. To gain access to the wetland, you must park at the beach lot and launch
your boat opposite the parking area. From there, it is yours to explore. Your journey will first take you under the Cleveland Road Bridge. You will then paddle through expansive stands of lotus, and then pass under the railroad bridge. At this point, the creek curves to the southeast and continues to wind towards Route 2. Passage beyond this point may be somewhat difficult due to downed trees. In good conditions, your journey can take you well beyond the bridge at Darrow Road. Recently, my husband and I paddled our canoe over Old Woman Creek. It was a crisp day, but we were delighted by the fall colors and the many species of birds and other wildlife that we observed. Our bird list included, but was not limited to, great blue heron, great egret, bald eagle, wood duck, and
belted kingfisher. At one point, we floated the canoe under a downed tree, and we each were required to sit atop the tree as the canoe passed under. Unfortunately, our journey ended just beyond the Route 2 Bridge where we encountered an impasse. On our way back through the lotus beds, we spooked a few fish, likely carp, as we paddled. If you do not own your own canoe or kayak, the staff at Old Woman Creek periodically lead guided tours through the wetland during the summer months. The canoes are provided. Check the Old Woman Creek website for a list of events. Permits for exploring the estuary on your own are available until the ice forms. I highly suggest taking the time to explore this incredible natural area.
Girls Night Out Dorcas’ Closet Founder Named Girls’ Night Out ‘Woman of the Year’ Girls’ Night Out co-founders Doug and Gretchen Studer presented roses to Cynthia Sanders, founder of Dorcas’ Closet, during the seventh annual Girls’ Night Out charity event on Wednesday, Nov. 2 at Kalahari Resort Convention Center. Sanders was selected as the 2011 Girls’ Night Out Woman of the Year. The local benefit was attended by 1,200 women and raised money for Cancer Services, the Fisher-Titus Mammography Fund, the Firelands Regional Medical Center Cancer Program Fund and North Coast Cancer Foundation. “Each year, the committee selects a woman who possesses all the qualities that make someone a Girls’ Night Out ‘Woman of the Year’,” said Doug Studer, co-founder of Girls’ Night Out. “All past recipients have been shining examples of exceptional women who have made an impact on the lives of cancer patients and survivors. Cynthia is a great example of someone who possesses these qualities. She has been a great example of someone who continues to shine even during adversity.” Sanders, who was born with a rare form of cancer, has gone through adversity most of her adult life. Diagnosed with an incurable cancer, she was told many times that she would only survive for a few years to a few months. “Her faith in God has sustained her and kept her going,” said Peg Miller, director of Cancer Services. “Even her doctors call her a walking miracle. She looks at this as an opportunity to do God’s work, by taking ‘one day at a time’.” “Cynthia does not know the meaning of ‘no’ or ‘stop’. Even most days she does not feel her

very best, but this does not curtail her enthusiasm for life or doing for others. Her mission is to do for those who cannot not do for themselves.” Sanders resides in Sandusky with her husband, American Sanders, Jr. At one time she worked as a bookkeeper, but because of her health she had to stop working. So, Sanders began a ministry in the community to lend a helping hand. She has been doing this mission work for several years now. She first started out of her church, Emmanuel Temple. Now Dorcas’ Closet is located at 156 Columbus Ave., Sandusky. As part of this retail store with a mission, Sanders has designated the upstairs portion of the building as a food and clothing giveaway. “Even though she has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, her legacy to help clothe and feed have exceeded her limits to serve others,” Miller said. Each year, the committee selects a woman who possesses all the qualities that make someone a Girls’ Night Out “Woman of the Year.” All past recipients have been shining examples of exceptional women who have made an impact on the lives of cancer patients and survivors. Past winners include Sheri Thomas (2005), owner of Sheri’s Coffeehouse in Norwalk and breast cancer survivor; Pat Scheid (2006) of Monroeville, instrumental

back surgery
can improve your life. Treating individuals for back or neck pain, injuries, illness or physical limitations, the neurosurgeons on staff at Firelands use the latest minimally invasive procedures to treat even the most complex spinal procedures. It’s no wonder Firelands received the highest-quality rating (5-star) for spine surgeries for the sixth consecutive year and was ranked #1 in the State of Ohio for overall orthopedics, including spine surgeries, hip and knee replacements, and hip fracture repair.

Thurs., November 17 8-11pm
By Lisa Yako Huron High School alumnus, Nick Shamhart, recently released his first novel, “Grey”. Shamhart, who now lives in the Cleveland area, made the decision to release his book in electronic format only. This decision was made due to a variety of factors including overall cost savings, book pricing, and autonomy. Shamhart described his novel as “a paranormal urban fantasy with horror overtones dealing with the unseen world of balancing powers.” For Shamhart, this novel could only be written as a result of gaining life experiences and insight. In describing his previous efforts at writing, Shamhart explained that “I was young and not seasoned enough by life to give a novel the proper effort a quality story requires.” Shamhart, who is a husband and the father of two young children, has learned much about life and finds
relations. He even created his own artwork for the cover of “Grey”. Much of Shamhart’s marketing efforts have been achieved through social media, and he refuses to be an “eccentric and unapproachable artist.” Shamhart is currently working on the second book, “Raven”, in his eight-book series. “Raven” should be released in the spring or summer of 2012. Shamhart, who has a severely autistic child, is also working on a general fiction novel dealing with how the world treats special needs individuals. According to Shamhart, “This novel is both cathartic and emotionally draining for me to write.” Unless a publisher makes an amazing offer, Shamhart plans to publish all subsequent books in e-book format. More information on Nick Shamhart and his novels can be found at www. nickshamhart.com.

inspiration from a variety of sources. On a more eternal note, Shamhart is deeply interested in his children’s future. “I have a desire, like any parent, to want to leave something behind for his children. An insurance policy just doesn’t hold the same measure of comfort that my writing does. I know if something untimely were to happen to me, my children could, at some point, read my novels and know some of the man their father was. Vicarious companionship is no substitution for being there, but it is better than nothing.” Shamhart admitted. Shamhart’s approach to publishing ultimately allowed him to be his own boss. According to Shamhart, since teen paranormal romance is currently a hot topic, many of the large publishing houses are looking to ride this wave and often demand authors alter their story to conform to what is popular. Shamhart refused to compromise, so he chose to self-publish. Yet, the road of self-publishing is not an easy one. Shamhart hired a distributing company to forPetite short hair mostly white mat his book into an e-book, and with brown tiger on head & he purchased his back, her tail is unique w/ own ISBN numblack circular stripes -end of ber and copythe tail is white, pink nose, right.

EHOVE goes global A large number of American companies do business with international companies on one level or another, and they’re looking for employees who can think locally and globally. EHOVE Career Center will offer a new training program in the high school next year that will provide students with a solid foundation in the world of global business. EHOVE’s new Global Business Management program is designed for students to study business principles with a global cultural mindset, explore real world business management issues, and develop organiza-
tion and communication skills. Students interested in business, becoming entrepreneurs, or a career as analysts or managers of human resources, finance, marketing, projects or purchasing, will find the program is a good fit. To help prepare students for college and give them a jumpstart on a business management degree, Global Business Management students will have the opportunity to earn free college credit from BGSU Firelands while enrolled at EHOVE. EHOVE Executive Director Kitty Smith is managing the initial stages of the training
program. Recognizing the shift to a more global environment in business, Smith said that the program also will include a project/problem-based focus with an international capstone field student. “Many businesses are expanding their operations to meet the developing global marketplace, so there is an increasing need for employees who understand the procedural and cultural aspects of international business,” said Smith. “Students in the program will have the opportunity to interact with area professionals who work in this expanding business environment.”
Global Business Management is currently designed for high school seniors only. The first group of students accepted into the program will attend in the 20122013 school year. Students of any age that are interested in enrolling in this program when they become seniors are encouraged to contact EHOVE now with questions or to request more information. Contact EHOVE at 419-499-4663 or ask questions on our Facebook page at www.Facebook. com/EHOVEworks.

Sports Genoa Comets Outrun Tigers for 37-14 Playoff Win Kyle Nutter and the Genoa Comets’ running attack ground down the Tiger defense in the opening round of the State playoffs at Comet Stadium. Genoa absolutely controlled the time of possession 40:23 to Huron’s 7:37. During those forty minutes Kyle Nutter ran for 413 yards and four touchdowns. The Tigers lone bright spot
was WR Cody Thompson who caught five passes for 123 yards including a spectacular jump ball grab for a 77 yard touchdown in the first half. Huron’s varsity football finished the season with an outstanding 9-2 mark and a second place finish in the SBC.
The Comet defense did a nice job keeping the Huron offense off the field. Here DeLamatre is getting tackled after a short gain.
Senior offensive lineman Ryan McNulty (75) leads the fighting Tigers onto the field prior to playoff game at Comet Stadium.
Above and right: Senior QB Kyle Pisano was heavily pressured all night long by the Genoa defense who gathered 5 sacks. Still, he was able to connect on 10 of 23 for 189 yards and a touchdown.
Left: Troy DeLamatre is about to tackle the Comets’ Nutter who powered his way to over 400 rushing yards.

Huron Hometown News | Thursday, November 10, 2011
The Berardi’s Restaurants certainly have a long local history. Starting in the food business in 1942, they quickly became well known for their homemade French fries. From 1942 until 1978, Berardi’s French fries were a highlight for Cedar Point visitors. It was all started by Roseanne and Albert Berardi and many people should remember their original Huron location; Frost Top Drive. All of us have now come to love it as Berardi’s Family Restaurant. They have been operating here since 1979 and it is currently owned and operated by Sue Berardi Fawcett and her brother Al Berardi. The restaurant that started as a dairy bar has become a great place for Huronites to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. They have enjoyed success by continually striving to improve. In keeping with that philosophy, this Spring, Berardi’s will be remodeling the inside to become a classy bistro, however, their menu and staff will remain the same. They want to create a newer, comfortable atmosphere for families, couples, tourists and business people whether they are having a glass of wine with dinner or coming in for a fresh morning omelet. Everything on the menu is made fresh each day and this year they are focusing on local growers. This includes Hahn’s peaches with butter nut squash and eggplant coming from other local farmers. Amazingly, they go through 2500 lbs of potatoes every week to make their signature fries, mashed potatoes, and home fries. Berardi’s has a full scale of beer and wine and they are also known for their seafood bisque, cream cheese pecan pie, fresh Lake Erie Yellow Perch, Philly steak and fries, and their new baked doughnuts. They will be happy to be your caterer for the many upcoming holiday events. They will also deliver items for the regular menu for free (minimum must be meant.) Specials are posted on the on their new website daily www.berardisrestauranthuron.com. Congratulations Berardi’s on becoming Huron’s Taste of the Week.
