“Right to Read” Week Rescheduled at Shawnee Elementary School Shawnee Elementary School has rescheduled their “Right to Read” Week for March 15-19, 2010. In the rescheduling process the school was fortunate in securing an assembly with Jim “Basketball” Jones on Thursday, March 18. Jim “Basketball” Jones is a motivational speaker that inspires students to be their best while stressing the importance of reading, stated Ms. Tanny Vonthron, Principal of Shawnee Elementary.

For over 11 years, the Jim “Basketball” Jones program has been motivating stu-

dents and teachers. His program has been performed at over 3,000 schools at various grade levels. Jones tailors all of his performances to appropriate audience levels. He places emphasis on character, effort and listening.

Jones will call on students to

participate while learning about important life skills.

Jones shares his inspirational story of overcoming dyslexia. In part of his message he focuses on the true story of being a Special Education student and his willingness to accept help and work hard to finally exceed everyone’s expectations to graduate with honors from Bowling Green State University.

The program will include basketball spinning, dribbling, juggling and his inspirational message on a winning attitude.

Huron Chosen for 2010 Chris Craft Event

Around Town & Taxes Page 2 —————— Obituaries & Church Chat

PORTSMOUTH, VA – What started as an informal get together by a few Chris Craft Commander owners 10 years ago has grown to be one of the key events of the summer boating season for owners of this classic boat. And Huron has been chosen as the site of the boating club’s next official rendezvous, scheduled for Aug. 5-8.

Huron is steeped in rich maritime history, as well as claiming home to many vintage Chris Craft Commanders, so it seems only natural the Commander Club would find itself convening in Huron for one of its national events, say event organizers Tim Toth and Matt O’Donnell. The pair has already organized two success-

While the event’s focus will be

The Chris Craft Commander Club got its start in 1999 as a written registry of less than 30 Commanders and their owners. The club quickly took its mission to the World Wide Web, and now membership totals more than 1,100 members worldwide.

The Chris Craft Corporation unveiled its first Commander model in 1964 with the 38-foot Express.

The boat was heralded as a design marvel from the drawing tables of Fred Hudson and “Mac” MacKerer. Dick Avery led the design team at Chris Craft that then produced other Commanders ranging in size from the 27-foot weekender to the 60-foot palatial.

Around Town Huron Track & Field Holding Annual Cookie Sale The Huron Track & Field teams will begin their annual cookie sales on Mar. 1. The sales will run through Mar. 11, with delivery on Mar. 31.

This is the fourth year the teams have offered the readyto-bake cookie dough. Packaged 48 cookies to a box, the selections include Chocolate Chunk, Oatmeal Raisin, Peanut Butter, M & M Candies, White Chunk Macadamia Nut and Snickerdoodles. The cookies – which last up to a year if kept frozen – are $15 a box with more than 45 percent of the profit going to the track program.

Money earned from the fund-raiser is used to help defray the expense of high-cost items such as pole vault poles, shotputs, discs and track camps, as well as to help feed the athletes at meets. The athletes will earn rewards, such as free T-shirts, a Kalahari water park pass and banquet tickets, for selling a certain amount of boxes. The cookies will be coming in at the end of March, just before Easter.

Those interested who are not contacted by a Track & Field member should call the high school at 419-433-1234, Ext. 1215 and someone will take orders.

Dear Friends, By now, you may have heard I am running for Erie County Commissioner. It was not an easy decision to make because I do love this city and its citizens. Please do not feel as though I am abandoning you. I know that the City Council, Administration, and Employees are very willing and capable of moving Huron in a continuing positive direction.

If I am fortunate enough to be elected as your County Commissioner, I will not take office until 2011. I will still have time as a City Council member to enact a strategic plan which will be available for all to review and monitor throughout its implementation and progression. I will also follow it very closely as well.

Being elected as a County Commissioner will not only enable me to help all the communities in Erie County, but will also allow me to continue my support of the City of Huron. The City of Huron, and all the political subdivision in the county, will have a voice and be heard on a county-level.

Thanks for all your trust and support.

Please vote on Tuesday, May 4th Sam Artino

U.S. Census Work Under Way With the 2010 U.S. Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. The first phase of the census is under way as workers have begun verifying the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S. Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race and other relevant data.

The big question is – how do you tell the difference between a U.S. Census worker and a con artist? The BBB offers

the following advice: If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag and a confidentiality notice. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions. However, you should never invite anyone you don’t know into your home.

Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information. Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the census.

Remember, no matter what they ask, you really only need to tell them how

many people live at your address. While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, you are not required to answer anything at all about your financial situation. The Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, bank account or credit card numbers, nor will employees solicit donations. Anyone asking for that information is not with the Census Bureau.

Eventually, census workers might contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However, the Census Bureau will not contact you by email, so be on the lookout for email scams impersonating the census or its workers.

FROM DEE HARTLEY, SENIOR TAX ADVISOR AT H & R BLOCK Most tax deductions and credits have a calendar-year life. That is they start on a Jan. 1 and end on a Dec. 31 lasting one year or more depending on what problem they are trying to solve. This tax season we are dealing with at least three tax attributes that have odd beginnings or endings.

The New Vehicle Sales and Excise Tax Deduction If you bought a new vehicle in 2009, you may be entitled to a special tax deduction for the sales and excise taxes on your purchase. Purchases must occur after Feb. 16, 2009, and before Jan. 1, 2010. Qualified motor vehicles purchased during this period generally include new cars, light trucks, motor homes and motorcycles. The deductions can be taken regardless of whether the buyers itemize their deductions or choose the standard deduction. Taxpayers who do not itemize will add this additional amount to the standard deduction on their 2009 tax return. There are weight, cost and income limitations so check this out. Taxpayers who do not itemize must complete Schedule L, Standard Deduction for Certain Filers to claim the deduction.

Purchases in 2010 while still helping the economy do not count, but if you were the first owner of a vehicle purchase at the right time in 2009 don’t miss this tax advantage.

HURON

YOU’RE INVITED! St. Peter Pre-School Open House and Registration Sunday, March 7 ~ 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

• Learn more about our fun and faith-filled approach to education.

• Meet our dedicated teachers.

• Experience first-hand our classroom setting with your child.

St. Peter Catholic School is now accepting applications for PreSchool students (ages 3 and 4) for the 2010-2011 academic school year. Join us in the exciting journey of educating your child.

Applications are also being accepted for Kindergarten through 8th grade students. All classrooms will be open and teachers will be available to answer questions.

Aid to Haiti Special permission has been granted to taxpayers giving aid to Haiti to take the charitable deduction on the 2009 return.

To utilize this tax advantage you need to make the deduction by February 28, 2010.

So you only have a few days to make this work for you. You will still need to have enough deductions to use Schedule A, Itemized deductions or “long form.”

First-time Homebuyer If you are in the market for a new home, you may still be able to claim the FirstTime Homebuyer Credit. Congress recently passed The Worker, Homeownership and Business Assistance Act Of 2009, extending the First-Time Homebuyer Credit and expanding who qualifies.

Basically you need to buy this new home

by April 30, 2010. This was expanded to include anyone who is a long-time (five year) homeowner who wants to upgrade or move to smaller digs or just move next door, but not into Mama’s house. Work with a reputable real estate agent and your tax professional on this one. Do not expect to receive the refundable credit in time to make your down payment. The deal has to be closed before filing. It helps if you have moved in.

And it is taking a long time for these returns to be processed; at least 16 weeks or more.

You will want to file your tax return and get your regular refund, then file an amended return with all of the supporting papers to claim your credit.

For more information about the expanded First-Time Home Buyer Credit, visit IRS.gov/recovery.

Jim Holstine Feb. 15, 2010

Jim Holstine of Glendale, AZ, passed away on February 15, after a brief illness.

He is survived by his wife, Lesa Growel Holstine, formerly of Huron. In addition, he leaves behind other Huron family members, his aunt, Blanche Ochs, his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Growel, and a number of cousins.

Church Chat there was no way to get off. You were going to the Dulles International Airport whether you wanted to or not.

So they were forced into a long outof-their-way round trip by car, while Renee and I easily traversed the short and direct journey on foot. My folks never returned to D.C., not even for my graduation.

If they had it to do over, I’m sure they would have just parked and walked along with us. But that’s what the Lenten season is for those following Christ, isn’t it? A “do-over�- like a “mulligan� in golf, or when you played baseball as a kid and had to call a timeout to shake the ball out of the limbs of a tree.

The time between now and Easter in early April is our exit ramp, our GPS (God’s Positioning System) so that we can pause, reflect, repent, turn around and get back on track. These 40 days are reminiscent of the 40 days that Jesus was tempted and tested in the wilderness by the devil.

As the evil forces begin to believe that you’re serious about taking that exit ramp and living a life more in tune with God’s will, those old bad habits and addictions will tempt you – and me, too: Trying to pull us back into familiar territory to keep them company and comfortable on that old road to nowhere. But you’ve already decided

I’ve been listening to a song by Jason Michael Carroll called “Hurry Homeâ€?‌ “He’s been sittin’ by the phone since she left, but it’s time for work and he just can’t be late. So he grabs his old guitar and he plays a couple bars on the machine, then he softly sings: It doesn’t matter what you’ve done, I still love you. It doesn’t matter where you’ve been, you can still come home.

And honey if it’s you, we’ve got a lot of makin’ up to do. And I can’t hug you on the phone, so hurry home.

She was just outside a bar in New York City. Her so-called friends have left her all alone. She was scared he wouldn’t want her, but she dialed up that old number, and let it ring. Then she heard him sing: It doesn’t matter what you’ve done I still love you. It doesn’t matter where you’ve been, you can still come home.

And honey if it’s you, we’ve got a lot of makin’ up to do. And I can’t hug you on the phone so hurry home.

He walked in just in time to hear her say, “Dad I’m on my way.�

God is saying to each of us, “Hurry home.� Lent is our reply, “Dad, I’m on my way.�

Rev. Roger’s Reflections My parents took one trip to Washington D.C. – only one – to drop me off for Freshman Orientation at the American University. And here’s why ‌ We had decided to come a few days early and do some sightseeing. My Dad always insisted upon driving. Having spent most of his life in middle Tennessee, he knew every “pig trail and cow pathâ€? in that area of the world. But our nation’s capitol – with all its traffic, hurry-up drivers, quadrants, angled streets and traffic circles – was not to his liking.

However, we were doing pretty well until we arrived at the Ellipse reflecting pool at the bottom of Capitol Hill.

We marveled at the impressive Lincoln Memorial, read all of the inspirational quotations, and then decided to visit the Washington Monument which, of course, is within sight.

My sister Renee and I decided to walk, while the folks would drive and meet us there. It took us 30 minutes to walk, and two hours for them to drive.

You see, my Dad made the mistake of entering the George Washington Parkway. It may have changed since, but at that time, if you got onto that highway

Parkvue’s First Annual Fish Fry Fundraiser was a huge success! Over 200 people packed the house to enjoy nearly 2000 pieces of Lake Erie Yellow Perch freshly prepared at Parkvue.

Ken Keller, Administrator of Parkvue, stated “We had a great time for a great cause. The fish was delicious and the support of our community was overwhelming.

We definitely plan to make this an annual event.” Lou Dickman from Sandusky won the “Perch Pack” door prize, which included everything needed to catch your own perch,

minus the boat and water. Thess Miller from Sandusky won the 50/50 drawing.

Parkvue is a not for profit organization and appreciates the support of the community to assist with providing additional resources and programs for both the residents and staff. The monies raised from this fundraiser will be used to purchase

defibrillators for the campus. According to the American Heart Association, early CPR and defibrillation after collapse can greatly improve survival rates from sudden ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest.

For more information about fundraising efforts and future events at Parkvue, please call 419-621-1900.

Senior Living Firelands Internal Medicine Residency Receives Approval Firelands Regional Medical Center announces that the Internal Medicine training program has been granted a five year Continuing Approval by the American Osteopathic Association, Program and Trainee Review Council.

The residency program, through Firelands’ Medical Education, promises an exceptional training experience

for physicians pursuing a career in internal medicine. Through the threeyear program, residents are challenged to develop solid history and physical exam skills, excellent office and hospital procedure skills and an overall understanding of the art of internal medicine. Residents successfully completing the program are able to have

either a traditional internal medicine practice – including office and hospital work – or a nontraditional practice focusing on only office or hospital work.

Firelands has provided osteopathic medical education in Northwest Ohio for more than 40 years in a college environment. For more information, go to www.firelands.com.

BGSU Firelands Exhibit Showcases Non-Traditional Families Is there a “typical” family in American society? What stereotypes and prejudices shape our perceptions of the family unit? “In Our Family,” a traveling photo-text exhibit from Family Diversity Projects, Amherst, Mass., was conceived as a tool to challenge stereotypes, dismantle prejudice and fight oppression. “In Our Family” will be on display in the Firelands College Library beginning Monday, Feb. 22 and continuing through Friday, Feb. 26. The exhibit is free and open to the public as part of the BGSU Firelands Diversity Celebration.

To create this exhibit, 25 unique families were interviewed and photographed.

“In our attempt to include a very diverse array of families, we interviewed and photographed people who were willing to speak openly about their lives and about some of their familial and individual challenges,” said Peggy Gillespie, co-interviewer/editor of “In Our Family” and co-director of Family Diversity Projects. “Many of them spoke of feeling invisible because their families didn’t fit the stereotypical image of an American nuclear family. Many spoke

of being teased or isolated because of their family structure or situation.”

Family Diversity Projects is a nonprofit arts organization devoted to educating the public about issues related to the diversity of family life in the 21st Century.

The event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Sandy DiCarlo (sandrad@.bgsu.edu), coordinator of student and campus activities at 419-433-5560 or 800-3224787.

Goodwill Offers Free Tax Help SANDUSKY – Low- and moderate-income area residents can get free help with their 2009 state and federal income tax returns by contacting Sandusky Bay Area Goodwill Industries.

Goodwill is providing the service through a grant received from the Ohio Benefit Bank, a Web-based program that connects low- and moderate-income Ohioans with job assistance and public benefits. Individuals whose annual household income is less than $57,000 are eligible for the program, which began Monday, Feb. 15, and ends June 30.

By using the OBB tax software, Goodwill also can help filers interested in attending college complete Free Application for Federal Student Aid forms online. An added benefit is filers will receive a 10-percent discount good toward purchases at any SBA Goodwill retail store.

Pennsylvania, Dr. Surfield spent

The assistance is available by appointment only at Goodwill’s Sandusky Administrative Office, 419 W. Market St., by calling 419625-4744.

To expedite the filing process, eligible persons are asked to bring their W-2s or 1099 tax forms, Social Security numbers for all family members, deduction and credit information like tuition bills or child-care expenses, direct-deposit records for savings and checking accounts, and copies of their 2008 tax returns.

“Many people do not realize they are eligible for various tax credits and other public assistance, so a program like this can be very helpful to them,” said Marlis Rock, Goodwill’s vice-president of Workforce Development. “It was a natural fit for us, too, because many of the disabled and disadvantaged we provide employment services to fall in the low and moderate income brackets.”

Vickery Recognized As January Beacon Of Light F i re l a n d s Regional Medical Center has selected Lisa Vickery as the “Beacon of Light” Vickery Award winner for January.

The Firelands Beacon of Light is a program developed to recognize team members who exemplify and exhibit the Values of Firelands in the areas of service, integrity, respect, unity and stewardship, along with the person’s commitment as a community member.

Vickery R.T.(R)(M), is a lead clinical instructor in the Radiology Department at Firelands. Her nomination read: “Lisa is one of the most knowledgeable technologist in X-ray, and she is a very compassionate person to her patients, coworkers and students. She fosters a team approach and is very effective when working and assisting others. Lisa has impacted numerous students in many ways. She is always willing to give whatever is needed.”

How do I become a Safety Town Counselor? Safety Town Counselors are one of the most important parts in running a successful program. Each year, between 40-50 counselors donate their time daily. The typical age of a Safety Town counselor is between sixth- and ninth-grades. There are also some older, experienced Safety Town counselors who are in tenth-, eleventh- and twelfth-grades. Safety Town Counselors must have completed sixth-grade before Safety Town begins to be eligible.

These counselors are vital to the day-today operations of Safety Town. Each counselor is assigned to a classroom or help on the blacktop outside. A Safety Town counselor is responsible for bringing excitement, energy and safety to the participants – many children are nervous the first day and it is the role of the counselor to make sure they feel comfortable.

Safety Town is a way to gain Community Service Hours toward a Diploma of Distinction. Counselors must bring the re-

quired paperwork from their high school guidance counselor to the counselor meeting prior to the start of Safety Town. Forms will be completed after completion of Safety Town. Those interested should complete and return a “New Counselor Application Packet,” which can be found on the parks and rec Web site or office. The deadline for submitting an application is Friday, April 2.

Schools EHOVE Career Center

Students at EHOVE Career Center learned last week that perfect attendance pays off, as five students anxiously stood in front of the entire student body waiting to find out who would win a car. Sara Hugo of Vermilion High School was the lucky winner.

The prize for the contest, which was part of the school’s Perfect Attendance Initiative, was a 1997 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Five students qualified for this drawing, having had perfect attendance since the beginning of the 2008 school year through the day of the contest.

Students qualify as having perfect attendance if they have no absences (excused or unexcused, except for school-related activities), no tardies and no suspensions. Drawings are made weekly, quarterly and yearly.

Students can also win big prizes for perfect attendance each week, each quarter and at the end of the semester. The prizes include MP3 players, iPods, gift cards, a Wii game system and Guitar Hero. “Good attendance is the first step to a suc-

cessful education as well as employment,� said Assistant Principal Rod Smith. “The attendance initiative provides an incentive for students to create and achieve short term attendance goals for themselves, with the hope that they will see the longterm positive effects for themselves and the business/company of which they will someday be a part.�

To determine the winner of the car from the five finalists, students took turns selecting an envelope taped to the car. Inside, that student won a Meijer gift card, but then had to turn over the card to find out who was eliminated from winning.

The final student whose name hadn’t been called was the winner.

Assistant Director Mark Ringlein emceed the event and announced Hugo as the winner. The student body’s cheers filled the room as a shocked by excited Hugo climbed into her new car.

The prize car was donated by a former EHOVE guidance counselor, John Ma-

rett. After receiving the car, it first became part of the EHOVE curriculum. EHOVE Auto Tech and Auto Body students, along with their instructors, inspected and fixed

up the interior and exterior of the car. More importantly, they corrected any problems and made sure it was mechanically sound and safe to drive.

Majoy was the sectional champion in the heavyweight class, defeating Woodmoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ben St. John in a 4-1 decision. In the 130-pound weight class, John Russo also made the finals, but was pinned by Kyle Burns of Edison. Matt King (152) lost in

his final match by a 4-3 decision to Travis Lombardi, also of Edison. Zach Blodgett (160) and Jordan Romick (215) won their respective consolation matches to qualify for the District meet, which will be held at Owens Tech.

Undefeated Port Clinton Topples Tigers, 53-38 The final home game of the year for Huron basketball was Senior Night and, by far, the largest crowd of the season was on hand to say thank you. The Tigers had eight senior ball players and five cheerleaders taking part in the final home game of their careers. Also part of the reason for the large crowd was that the opponent, Port Clinton, was the fifth best team in the state in its division. Huron is a streaky team.

On the right night, perhaps the Tigers could hand the Redskins their first loss.

Huronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two big men, Steve Bowers and Brandon Poorman, opened up the scoring and got the home crowd fired up. However, two minutes later, Port Clinton was up 8-4, forcing Coach James to call his first timeout. By the time James called his next timeout, with 2:09 left in the first quarter, the Tigers were down 15-4 and the Huron side was silent.

The Tigers mounted a brief run to open the second quarter to pull within four, 15-11. But just like with their first meeting, Port Clinton can score â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both inside and outside quickly. The Redskins converted on three straight fast breaks and were suddenly up 21-11 with still 4:44 left in the first half. Senior Jonathon Hicks would hit the only Tigers basket the rest of the second period. By the time halftime mercifully came around, Huron was down 31-13.

Huron displayed character and a tough nose defense to outplay Port Clinton in the third quarter by a score of 13-7.

Still, PC was up 38-26 when the final stanza opened. The Redskins mounted their last big run following a Port Clinton timeout with 7:13 to play. Over the next three minutes, the visitors outscored Huron 12-6 to take a commanding 50-32 lead. It was too much for the Tigers to overcome.

The final score was 53-38. Derek Dowell played aggressive offense and led the Tigers with 10 points. Senior Zach Grieves contributed nine points and six rebounds. Huronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s JV team also fell to Port Clinton, 56-45. Drew Enderle led the junior team with 19 points.

Prior to the game, the following seniors were recognized for all they have done to represent their school: Steve Bowers, Derek Dowell, Zach Grieves, Jonathon Hicks, Max Jenkins, Brandon Poorman, Joe Ramey, Eric Volz, Jennifer Fialka, Nicole Luzader, Colleen Machovina, Taylor Thatcher and Carissa Wright.

Same Start, Different Ending Lady Tigers Knock off Norwalk, 55-47 With 3:51 left in the first quarter, Huron coach Ty Ray called his first timeout of the game. It seemed like the same old story: Huronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opponent had just completed a 10-0 run and the visiting Truckers looked to be in complete control of the game. It was Senior Night after all; couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the Tigers put together an effort worthy of their two captains (Devon Grendow and Melissa Moberg)?

Junior Devon Koenig came out of the break and hit two buckets while Grendow hit a field goal of her own. Norwalk was comfortably in the lead, 20-10, at the end of the first quarter. While the Tigers played a zone, the Truckers seemed to have too much inside for the home team to handle. Norwalk hit the opening basket of the second period to take what would be their biggest lead of the game (12 points). But the visitors would only score one more time in the half (a lay-up with :50 left) while Huron would drop in 15 points of their own. A combination of turnovers and ice-cold shooting hurt the Truckers. The Tigers had the lead going into halftime, 25-24. Devon Koenig already had 10 rebounds on the night.

The lead, for the first four-plus minutes of the third quarter, went back and forth. With 3:50 left, following a steal and a fast-break bucket by Norwalk to tie the game at 31 each, Coach Ray called time. Point guard Caroline Estel came out aggressively and drove the lane for two baskets, then Koenig and Ward both hit short jumpers. Norwalk kept pace via the free-throw line. At the end of the period, Huron led by only two points 39-37.

The difference in the game came during the final quarter.

The Tigers outscored the Truckers by a 16-10 margin. The eight-point margin of victory was built by the 4:30 mark, following outside jump shots by Lauren Volz and Melissa Moberg that gave Huron a 48-40 lead. Huron did a nice job of controlling the action the rest of the way to victory, 55-47.

Caroline Estel led the way for the home team with 20 points, five rebounds and four assists. Devon Koenig and Devon Grendow both had nine points and led the Tiger Lauren Volzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (24) defense at the top of Huronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effort on the boards with 16 and nine rebounds respectively. Koenig also contributed four steals, and Volz added zone helped shut down the Trucker offense.
