The Huron Boat Basin Marina has been recertified for the second time as an Ohio Clean Marina. The first ‘three year certification’ was issued on July 25, 2006 shortly after the statewide program was launched. Re-certification took place on November 2, 2009 for three additional years. The Clean Marina Award is an honor that is received when successfully completing the Ohio Clean Marina Program. “This is a voluntary program that certified marinas commit to environmental laws, rules and jurisdictions and take a more proactive approach to follow best management,” stated Colleen Wellington, Program Coordinator for the Ohio Clean Marinas Program. The program encourages a partnership between marinas and boaters to use innovative solutions to help keep the coastal and inland waterways in Ohio clean. Lake Erie is home to over 300 recreational marinas, of that 42 are currently certified as Clean Marinas, Wellington explained. “Huron City Council and our City Manager, Andy White have placed great emphasis on

the 83 item checklist covering a variety management practices and environmental ethics. Other areas of the program include attending workshops, conducting self-assessments of marina property and scheduling site reviews with the Clean Marina Coordinator, Colleen Wellington. The Huron Boat Basin will be annually instructed by letter to voluntarily reaffirm their status by submitting a completed BMP Checklist to the Clean Marina Coordinator for review. Since “Clean Marina” sta-

tus has been achieved efforts are on-going to maintain the title. The Huron Boat Basin Marina was the first municipal marina in Ohio to achieve Clean Marina status. Three other Huron marinas, Harbor North, Holiday Harbor and Huron Lagoons have also obtained the Ohio Clean Marina Award.

Fire Department Offers Holiday Safety Tips The City of Huron Fire Department is offering its citizens some safety tips for this holiday season: 1) When selecting a real tree for the holidays be sure to choose a live tree with fresh green needles that are soft and do not fall off if the tree is bounced on its trunk. Make sure to check the water level in the base of the stand daily and assure it is kept full. Remember that dry trees can burn rapidly in seconds (see video on the fire department Web site). 2) When selecting an artificial tree be sure

to look for a label stating “Fire Resistant” on the box. Although this does not mean it won’t catch fire, it does mean that it will resist burning. Remember to keep the tree a safe distance away from anything that produces a flame or heat. 3) When you hang decorative lights, remember to follow manufacturer’s recommendations for installing and proper use. Turn off all lights before going to bed or install an automatic timer switch. Replace any lights with frayed or damaged wires, as these can

start fires. Keep candles away from all decorations and never leave unattended. Check your smoke detectors to ensure that they are working properly and practice your home fire escape plan. For more information, safety tips, and a tree fire video be sure check the city of Huron’s Web site at www.cityofhuron.org. Click on Departments, then select Fire & Rescue, then Public Education. The Huron Fire Department wishes you a safe and happy holiday.

“Christmas with Santa” One of Huron’s most popular events – Christmas with Santa – will be held from 3 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 12 at the Huron Boat Basin. From 4 to 8 p.m., Santa and Mrs. Claus will be waiting to hear children’s Christmas lists. Once again, a coloring and craft area will be open where children can make and take a seasonal craft project home with them. The tradition of “Warm Hand from Young Hearts” will also be continued. Donations of gloves and mittens will be placed on a tree to be given to local families in need. There are several new additions this year to the “Christmas with Santa” event, which

is hosted by the Huron Parks and Rec Department: Be sure to bundle up for carriage rides around town from 3 to 8 p.m. and take the opportunity to get up close and personal with a real reindeer from 3 to 6 p.m. As the sun sets, the Boat Basin and City Hall will light up with luminaries. Community members are encouraged to help “Light up Huron” by displaying luminaries throughout their neighborhoods. Those who sponsored the event and are to be thanked are: Berardi’s Restaurant, Family Eye Care Center, Dairy Queen, Hartung and Associates, Arby’s and First Merit Bank.

Warm Coats for Winter Two Huron High School seniors – Brandon Poorman and Katie Thorne – are continuing a family community service their brothers started three years ago. “Warm Coats for Winter” is a community service program in cooperation with the Erie County United Way. The goal is to collect clean, gently used winter coats of all sizes to be distributed to neighbors in need

collected 250 coats in 2006. Brandon Poorman and Craig Thorne followed that up by collecting more than 440 coats in 2007; and Brandon Poorman and Katie Thorne collected more than 275 in 2008. Poorman and Thorne have placed collection boxes in several area businesses who have agreed to help with the program. These businesses are: Ace Hardware – 402 Cleveland Road East Chamber of Commerce- 509 Huron St. Huron Eagles Club – 2902 Cleveland Road West Latanick Equipment Inc. – 720 River Road Modern Dry Kleeners – 518 S. Main St. Other businesses who are helping to spread the word are Cameo Pizza, Domino’s Pizza and Huron Pizza House – by reminding their patrons with a flier attached to each of their orders. “Warm Coats for Winter” will run now through Dec. 20, when all coats will be collected and delivered to the Erie County United Way. within The United Way will then distribute the coats to the multitude of proErie County. grams within their care.

Around Town Youth Group Raises Money for Homeless

BEHIND THE BADGE

A Ban on Cellular Telephones, Texting, One, Both or Neither? BY JOHN T. MAJOY, ACTING CHIEF POLICE

OF

On Tuesday, November 24, the Huron City Council had a public hearing on the topic of a proposed ban of driving while using cellular telephone and texting within the City of Huron. Specifically, the City of Huron is considering enacting a law that prohibits the use of a cellular telephone while driving, texting while driving, or both. The legislation was sent back to the Public Safety Committee for further review and will be presented to City Council again in the near future. As members of the public, your input is valuable and you have a voice. With that said, I am seeking input from the public on this matter. Do you think that the use of a cellular telephone while driving should be prohibited outright? Should the legislation enact a law that only bans texting while driving, or, should both be prohibited? The mission of the Huron Police Department includes creating a safe environment

for our c i t i ze n s a n d visitors. This includes enforcem e n t of traffic laws for the safety of motorists and pedestrians alike. We will diligently enforce any such legislation as passed by our governing authority to help maintain the safety of our community. Your opinion is indeed valued and we would like to hear from you. If you wish to voice your thoughts on this or any other matter, please feel to send an e-mail to the huronpolice@cityofhuron.org

On a recent cool November night, 54 kids spent the night outside in cardboard boxes to raise money for the homeless. The kids were members of eight area Lutheran church youth groups that raised $3,750 for Crossroads Homeless Shelter, with an additional matching donation from Thrivent Lutheran financial institute of $1,000. On Nov.14, the teens assembled a makeshift cardboard box city on the grounds of

In fact, the summer 2010 Boat Basin Brochure planning is well under way. As you may know, these brochures contain all the summer events at the Amphitheater: Boppin’ on the Basin, Movies by the River, and Arts at the Amphitheater. Many business sponsors have already confirmed their return for 2010 and at this time we are looking to add a few. The Boat Basin Brochure is a great way for you to advertise your business, as these brochures are mailed to residents, distributed at boat shows, and are available at local tourist destinations. If you are looking for ways to market your business or are just interested in supporting these events within your community, don’t delay as these brochures go to print in the near future. If this is something you are interested in, contact Doug Steinwart, facility manager of the Huron Boat Basin at 419-433-4848 as soon as possible.

Gardening Warm Winter Weather Problems? MARY STRAYER, MASTER GARDENER

Since the last six weeks have been unseasonably warm, it was time to do some investigation to find out if there really is going to be any problems in spring with our bulbs and other landscape materials. Research information was given to me from Zachary Rinkes, Extension and MORE! Educator for Erie County OSU Extension. Basically, the conclusion of this information is that it is very hard to really tell how much damage Northern Ohio Medical Fitness Center members are medically will be done to anything until winter finally supervised and trained by licensed professionals. does come – and spring reappears at it regular time.

shrub will have to produce a second set to have blossoms then. Sometimes this does not happen and you will see less blooms and less leaves this year, but if all is normal next winter, the following spring will be back to normal again. Check your gardens – the forsythia bushes are blooming in my gardens, dill seed is up, and parsley has begun to send up next year’s crop. Some things to consider are: Prune off the dead from the plants, but do not over prune this year. Give the plant space to grow. If you were planning to transplant it, don’t. Wait a year and do it then if at all possible, or do it early spring. Also, pay attention to the plants, especially ones that rabbits, deer or moles etc. care to munch on. If possible put a wire cage around these special plants, because the warm weather has awakened the ‘critters,’ and when awake they have to eat. Have you noticed the mole and ground squirrel mounds appearing in the yards again? Alas, they are awake and will start to do damage. There are also traps available to snare the critters, and it would be a good idea to use them if the weather continues to be above freezing. Lastly, there are concerns coming to me in emails about spring bulbs in gardens. Some of us have seen the foliage up out of the ground already, some as high as 4-6 inches. When this happens and then a freeze comes along, the flower stem will not emerge until later. It is when the flower stem is visible; there is concern about loss of not only blossom, but the bulb as well. You can mulch over any bulb that is barely showing by adding 2-3 inches of mulch and hoping it freezes fast enough to stop the flowering process. Here’s hoping all of this will pass quickly, and old man winter will come to us in Northern Ohio very soon. Happy Gardening. Special Note: Thinking about becoming a Master Gardener? Call OSU extension at 419627-7631 and sign up – classes begin later this month. Thanks.
