Al Ereditario of Lorain sits on the Hog for a Cause he won at the 7th Annual Girls’ Night Out, held at Kalahari on Nov. 2.
The Lorain resident remembered this and on Nov. 2, he and his wife, Rebecca, drove out to Kalahari to see the event. They got there around 7:15 p.m. They came in and walked around, looked at the Hog sitting on display, walked by the main ballroom where the show was going on, looked around a little more and drove back home to Lorain. Little did he know that 15 minutes before he got to Kalahari, his winning ticket had been drawn and his home phone had been called. He found all this out when he walked back into the house and had a message from Studer, saying he had won.

Girl Scouts help Goodwill On November 5th, 380 Girl Scouts from 31 area troops participated in the annual Good Turn Day by sponsoring a donation drive to benefit Goodwill Industries. The Scouts collected clothing, books, housewares, and other items for seven Goodwill stores in the four county area. The girls volunteered their time at the donation sites and each Scout earned a merit badge for her efforts. “Good Turn Day is a national event for Girl Scouts. We are honored to have been selected as the agency our local Girl Scouts are supporting in their efforts. Good Turn Day is a win-win for Girl Scouts and for Goodwill. The Scouts experience firsthand the value and the impact of giving back to their community. Goodwill receives donations from the Scouts’ collection drive that support jobs and job training for people who are disabled or disadvantaged. We estimate that typically four bags of donated goods generates enough revenue for us to employ one person in our Workforce Development program for one day. We employ 330 people, with 70% classified as disabled or disadvantaged, “ states Eric Kochendoerfer, Goodwill Industries CEO. “Giving someone a job for a day through four bags of donated goods is something everyone can do to help their community, as the Girl Scouts have so successfully demonstrated with their Good Turn Day. We appreciate their efforts very much.”

The Sandusky State Theatre Announces “It’s a Wonderful Life” Live on Stage! One of the greatest and most beloved Christmas stories “It’s a Wonderful Life” comes alive on stage December 2nd at 7:30 pm and December 3rd at 2:00 & 7:30 pm. This favorite family Christmas story is produced by Thomas T. Kazmierczak III and is directed by Trish Sandberg.

Potter, Matthew Westerhold as Mr. Martini, and Emma Rice as ZuZu and many others. On Christmas Eve, all the citizens of the small town of Bedford Falls pray to the heavens to help George Bailey, it’s then decided that Clarence, an angel who hasn’t earned his wings, is to help George. Before he does, he should know who George Bailey was. George Bailey grew up in Bedford Falls, a small town where he dreams of leaving it and making his mark on the world. His family’s business is the only thing that stands between the good citizens and Mr. Potter, a rich miser who takes sick pleasure in taking from everybody, without even caring how it affects them. George was all set to leave when his father died and had to take care of the business. George would forever be hindered by his plans to leave and thinks that he is nothing but a failure, he decides to kill himself. That’s when Clarence comes in and tries to convince him that he has made something with his life, and that he had a “Wonderful Life.” Show only tickets are $21.00 - $31.00 and Dinner and Show Package tickets are $39.00 - $49.00.

Search for the Christ Child Search for the Christ Child is a unique opportunity to be a “living part” of the first Christmas. It is a 20 minute “live play” where people walk from act to act inside the church. Search is a historical reenactment of the life and time when Christ was born (over 2,000 years ago). You will be led by a shepherd and encounter angels, innkeepers, King Herod, Wise man, Roman soldiers, market place vendors, beggars, and the Holy family. Based on the Biblical gospels of Matthew and Luke, learn the true story of Christmas as you travel to find Baby Jesus. This production is a Free Gift to
Rev. Roger’s Reflections By Rev. J. Roger Skelley-Watts, Huron United Methodist Church Think with me of a question that you would like to ask God. A situation that you have faced personally, or heard about; a difficult person in your life, when you have said to yourself: “When I get to heaven (and I hope I do), and when I meet my maker (if I get the chance), I have a question or two for Him! Such as… Because having questions does not mean that we lack faith, does it? I’ve been leading an adult discussion group on basic Christianity 101. At one meeting a wife turned to her husband of 40+ years and exclaimed, “Really? I didn’t know that about you – wow!” So maybe we should all take some time during this special season of the year to do some faith explorations with family and friends. Here is a list of discussion starters from our lesson book: + Does God exist? + What is God really like? + What is God doing in my life? How do I know? + What does God want me to do? How can I tell? + Do we have one God or three Gods? + If God is so good and powerful, why do bad things happen? + Would God turn God’s back on us? + Would God destroy the world or let us destroy it? + Why did God create people if God knew they were going to mess up? + Does God really hate babies and condemn them to hell before they’re even born? + What makes our God “right” and others “wrong”? …You probably have more. Here’s my favorite: If you are talking with God and He sneezes, what do you say? (haha) Questioning is an act of belief, isn’t it? Think of the religions, countries, and times in history when questioning was not only discouraged, but illegal. That’s a topic for our Thanks-giving table this year. In many of the scriptures, authorities ask
Jesus convoluted questions in order to trip him up, test him, and trap him. They were questioning like prosecuting attorneys and eventually used his answers to falsely accuse, convict, try, and execute the Christ. Similarly to people in your own life experience, if someone so completely dominates you, such that you are not allowed to question or express your own opinion, thoughts or feelings…that person is not in search of the truth, only personal power and control over you. In response to a grilling about which commandment was the greatest, Jesus responded, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all of your mind. And the second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matt. 22) Then, Jesus asked his interrogators a question that they could not answer, so they all walked away. In the end, God will have far more questions of us that we will have of Him. A man bought a new house that he liked very much, except it had a huge boulder in the front yard. Unable to remove it, he went to work with hammer and chisel until it became a beautiful work of art – a gorgeous, breath-taking stone elephant. A neighbor asked, “How did you ever create that?” The man answered, “I just chipped away everything that did not look like an elephant.” If we question God not with accusation but with faith, chipping away from our lives everything that does look like God, what will be revealed is the beautiful sculpture of your soul. At the end of our discussion class, I asked each person to summarize her/his faith in a single word or phrase. Here’s the list: Grace. Strong. Supreme. Creator. Predestination. Jesus son of God. Personal savior. Perfect through him. Christ – sanctifier, savior, healer, king. Forgiveness. Mercy. Mystery. How great is our God who is big enough for these and more. So as we chip away at our boulder, God bless your questions which can come out of faith, or as C.S. Lewis discovered, faith can come out of questions.

Though the holidays are several weeks off, it’s not too early to look ahead and develop a spending strategy. “Planning is key,” says Dawn Barnes, Senior Extension Agent of Family and Consumer Sciences for Virginia Cooperative Extension. “You need to maintain control of your spending rather than letting the holidays take over and dominate your spending and time management.” Follow these suggestions to make the holidays less stressful, budget-friendly and less unexpected when they arrive. Create an all-inclusive budget. Make a list, check it twice and leave no expense unconsidered. For instance, if you illuminate your home’s exterior with holiday lights, consider how the additional power load will increase your electric bill, and factor that into your budget. If you’re traveling, account for the cost of gas or airfare, lodging, meals, entertainment and more. Want to safeguard your spending plan with a
budget cushion? Barnes recommends adding an additional $100–200 to your budget. Get a head start. Establish your budget for this holiday season as soon as possible. Then, track your purchases as you make them. After the holidays, review what you spent and use that to create a holiday budget for next year, Barnes recommends. Put that money in a savings account earmarked for holiday spending. Be flexible. “If there is less money in your holiday budget then what you planned on, adjust spending a bit,” Barnes says. For instance, if you were intending to provide all the food and beverages for a holiday gettogether, invite your guests to a potluck instead. Use credit with caution. Paying with plastic? Barnes recommends deducting the transaction from your checkbook balance right after you make the purchase. That guarantees the money will be there when your credit card bill arrives. “Don’t take on any more debt than you can handle,” Barnes says. If you’re currently dealing with debt, State Farm offers tips for paying off credit card debt.

Last year we usually lost the match in the baker games but we have spent a lot of time working on that already this year and they are already showing great improvement. Kevin Gosser had a fantastic two game series with a 508 and freshman Alex Winschel opened up with an unbelievable 279 and the team seem to build off them through the rest of the match. I’m looking forward to seeing what this team is going to show during the season.

Health & Wellness Fisher-Titus Medical Center’s Autism Spectrum Kids Program Showcased
North Coast Cancer Care has always been outstanding. Now it’s part of Ohio’s top cancer care.* North Coast Cancer Care proudly joins Cleveland Clinic. Cleveland Clinic, North Coast Cancer Care provides the latest treatment options and the best cancer care in Sandusky, Clyde and Norwalk.
Mary Helton, director of rehabilitation at Fisher-Titus Medical Center in Norwalk, and Lindsey Soisson, pediatric special programs coordinator at Fisher-Titus, recently showcased the Medical Center’s Autism Spectrum Kids (ASK) program on a national level during the 2011 American Speech-Language-Hearing Association’s Convention, held Nov. 17-19 in the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, Calif. The annual ASHA Convention is the premier annual event for speech-language pathologists, audiologists, and speech, language and hearing scientists. Soisson and Helton presented an hourlong presentation on Thursday, Nov. 17 titled “Bringing Specialized Programming to Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) in Small Communities” to individuals in charge of supervision or management of speech-language pathology programs who are interested in alternative service delivery models for children with autism spectrum disorders and initiating or expanding specialized programs in their communities. “Small communities find it difficult to
provide specialized programs for children with ASDs,” Helton said. “The number of autism cases diagnosed continues to grow and the need for local programming also continues to grow. During our presentation, we talked about the framework for developing programs for children with autism in small communities and highlighted our own ASK program as a model.” The Fisher-Titus Medical Center Autism Spectrum Kids (ASK) program was founded in 2001 when concerned parents of children with special needs approached Fisher-Titus Medical Center and asked for help in offering camps and other recreational programs close to home. In 2001, the ASK program began and offered two camps for children with Autism, a winter and a summer camp, that served 41 area specialneeds children. These trans-disciplinary, private-pay camps provided children with a local opportunity for therapeutic recreation that before this time was unavailable. Since its founding in 2001, the ASK program has grown exponentially. In 2010, ASK offered 19 camps including such innovative programming as: International Cooking Camp, Yoga Friends, and Drawing on Strengths. In addition to camps, ASK also offers other specialized programming including: quarterly sensory friendly movies, community seminars, a free lending library, seminars, and a quarterly community newsletter. “Our locally developed programs are offered to children and families who otherwise would have to travel over 60 miles to the closest large city to receive such services.” Soisson said. “Creating specialized programs in a small community has unique challenges as resources can be sparse, there can be a lack of community awareness and education regarding autism spectrum disorders, and funds for families can Bar North is located in Thunderbird be lacking.” Hills North Clubhouse.
