Harvey Junior ECity Champion Edwin Romo, with advisor and business teacher Nell Rapport, has won the Cleveland ECity-Wide Business Plan Competition.
Trip to national competition next PAINESVILLE - Harvey High School junior, Edwin Romo won the Cleveland ECITY-Wide Business Plan competition May 24. He presented his business, Onyx Duct Tape Wallets, to win the Northeast Ohio competition. Romo earned a seat in the Cleveland competition when he placed first over 18 fellow students, in the Lake County ECity competition this spring. The regional win qualifies him for a trip to New York City to compete in the NFTE (Network For Teaching Entrepreneurship) national competition in October. In addition, Romo’s’ win earns him $1,000 from the Youth
Opportunities Unlimited /ECITY program and is awarded $1,000 from Ernst & Young. The money will be used to expand his business and to prepare for the national competition. This is the second consecutive regional win for Harvey ECity competitors. Last year, Samarie Gaston, proprietor of Sweet Sweet Chocolate, placed first in the Cleveland competition and represented Harvey High School in the national competition in New York City. Romo is supported by his business mentor, Gladys BenetizReilly, who shared in the ECity experience by mentoring Romo in his business entrepreneurial pursuits. Reilly is owner of Viva Spanish; a company that teaches Span-

Life during the Four Springs of 1861-1865 Benjamin Askue and Hart Loomis, both Ashtabula County boys, gave their impressions of nearing Washington that late summer/ early fall of 1862 when writing their letters or in their diary. Hart Loomis was a man of few words when it came to writing and he recorded a sentence or two, but Askue really expressed himself when writing. Askue wrote home to his wife, Flavia, when he nearing Washington. He made a point of saying he was nearing the capital of the United States since the southern capital was at Richmond, Virginia. He mentions that they had just recently passed through the well-known place of Harper’s Ferry. Everyone in Ashtabula County had a connection to that place since some of the men in the raid had been from our county and the arms for the
raid had passed through here. On August 30th, he wrote, “ Well, while writing I had to quit to unload the cars [railroad] and was expecting to move all day until near night when we crossed the long bridge and went as far as Alexandria. Did not get there til near 12 at night as we met some 20 thousand of McClellan’s army going towards the bridge. It is all guess work where they are going but some think they are going to trap Jackson somewhere. We stayed in Alexandria the rest of the night and then came in this morning to this place.” About the time they were nearing Washington, Hart Loomis wrote, Sept. 14- “We had a terrible fight today. A heavy loss on both sides but we won the day. 15th-” Still chasing the rebels and skirmishing with them all day. 16th- “ditto with yesterday.”
The 17th- we had another severe fight today. Drove them again. 18th- “Still firing.” From Helen Wheeler’s letters sent to Austinburg from Washington, where she cared for the soldiers in various hospitals, we discover what she was experiencing as a result of all the fighting. Her letters were sent by Betsy and Cornelia Cowles to the Ashtabula Sentinel newspaper. Askue and Hart had continued to write of heavy fighting all around them. They were writing from a soldier’s perspective on the battlefield. Fighting had intensified all through August and September as troops from both sides headed toward Washington. By August 10th, Wheeler began seeing the casualties take a sudden upward turn. She wrote: “Oh, dear! Another battle and a rumored defeat, three thousand killed, wounded and missing.” Wheeler was very thankful for all the things sent to her from the folks back in Ashtabula County, and she never forgot to show how much she appreciated their help and concern. “I have just received a large box from Cherry Valley and Richmond. Shall take them to Falls Church. The wounded will come this week, and everything will be needed again.

Flying the flag: Rose says it’s a GOOD thing! I am, and always have been, a flag-flying patriot. Over time, it seems there have been some periods when some segments of our society have not seen that as “cool.” That doesn’t matter to my husband and me; it never has and never will. We will fly the flag until the day comes when it’s physically impossible for us to do so. And then we’ll find someone to raise and lower it FOR us, and replace it when it needs to be replaced. Those “someones” will no doubt be our sons, for all of them fly flags outside their own homes, on flagpoles, as we do. For me personally, I don’t know exactly where or when this love for flying the flag began. Perhaps it was the prominence of the flag in my 1940s childhood, when every day at elementary school began with the Pledge of Allegiance... Or perhaps it began with my own family’s patriotic ethic... Or perhaps it began with my hometown’s annual Flag Day parades, which were large and well-attended. Those parades stepped off at our local high school. Along the way and through the downtown, the streets were always deeply lined with residents of all ages, waving small flags that had been given to them by whatever organization was responsible for that. Today in America, it seems, the large yearly Flag
ROSE AROUND TOWN by Rose Moore Columnist Day parades have gone by the wayside. But we do, in a way, have somber versions of a flag parade. After our citizens learned their lesson from the shameful treatment given to soldiers returning from Vietnam, dead or alive, today’s fallen heroes are saluted by great crowds of people holding flags along the route to the local hero’s funeral and burial. These parades, unlike our Flag Day parades of yesteryear, are not exuberant and joyful. But they are quite moving in the intensity of feeling as the funeral procession bears the fallen to his or her goodbye. Huge flags are raised over roadways in the hero’s honor, suspended from aerial ladders by local fire departments; and people line the right-of way, coming in from homes and side streets with their flags, to bear respectful witness to the sadness of the loss. IN A DIFFERENT MOOD, I am happy when I see an unexpected and unscheduled show of respect to the flag that represents our country. One example took place two years ago when an area tree service was taking down four large, dangerous trees on our property. Our flag and flag pole did not seem to be in harm’s way while they worked, yet I

Her kind words and face comforted many a dying man as seen in in the deathbed scene she described in a letter: “At the hospital two more died during the afternoon, one a middle aged man, the other a young smooth faced boy. I sat for a couple of hours beside him, watching the ebbing away of his young life. His face wore the expression it must have borne in infancy, so gentle and placid, and he breathed his life away like a sleeping babe. Just before ceasing to

He had under his head his mother’s daguerreotype, as was supposed, and in his pocket a letter signed, ‘From your loving mother, to her darling soldier boy.’ God help thee, poor mother, when the tidings reach thee of the death of ‘thy little soldier boy.’ I passed into a tent, and two young boys sprang up with, “how do you do Mrs.

We felt like saluting, and I’m sure that was the desired effect. SOMETIMES I FEEL ANGER at the manner in which our flag is treated, such as: *Hearing on the news about a deed restriction forbidding a veteran from flying his American flag.

for the singer herself. It should be sung like a hymn, and the tune should not be mangled or the words forgotten. Which is why I felt such pride to listen recently as a young middle-schooler named Jenna Moore opened a school concert with the National Anthem. She stood respectfully; sang it carefully in tune and key; a capella and word-perfect, like the hymn it is, paying honor to our flag and country. Admittedly, her talent was not inherited from me, her grandmother. But she had learned through home and family to respect the song and what it stands for. When she was done, it was clear that her audience appreciated the meaning too. GOD BLESS AMERICA, where patriotism still has its fans, and a great many families are still passing it on.

Fighting for fair pay about that. That’s why I won’t give up fighting for the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would shore up theEqual Pay Act and create stronger incentives for employers to follow the law while helping women fight pay discrimination when it does occur. As a father of daughters and as a husband, I know that this pay gap devalues women’s work. And it discourages economic growth— because women make up more than 46 percent of today’s workforce. The pay gap doesn’t affect just women, it also affects their families. Addressing the gender pay gap is a crucial step toward getting our economy back on track. With 33 percent of married mothers in Ohio serving as their families’ primary wage earner, and more than 6.3 million working single mothers heading families across the United States, it
is urgent that women earn the pay they deserve. Our economy works better when women can negotiate fairly and when women are paid what they’re worth. Unfortunately, 46 Senators—all in the minority— voted against bringing Paycheck Fairness Act to the floor for a vote. Ohio women are hard working. Many get up early, stand on their feet all day, then head home and take care of their children—and they don’t ask for a handout. They don’t ask for a bailout. But they do ask for equal pay. They ask that we act now, that we continue the fight for the Paycheck Fairness Act— for women everywhere, and for our mothers, our daughters and our families. It’s these women that I will think about as we continue to fight together for equality and for the Paycheck Fairness Act.

SENATOR SHERROD BROWN In Your Home Town Ohioans work hard, and I believe their hard work deserves fair pay, regardless of gender. But today in Ohio, women earn just 85 cents to every dollar a man makes. According to the Joint Economic Committee, that earnings gap means over the course of their working lives, women lose more than $400,000. That’s unconscionable. Nearly fifty years ago, Congress passed and President John F. Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act into law, making it illegal for employers to pay men and women different wages for the same work. But since then, women have made only minor gains against the salaries earned by men for performing the same work.
I believe that equal pay for an equal day’s work should be an American right. Without congressional action, women will not achieve pay parity with men until 2056. And so, if the pay gap continues, women will never be able to catch up. A lower salary starting at hire doesn’t just mean a smaller paycheck—it means a smaller pension, a diminished 401K, and smaller Social Security check benefits. The discrimination that begins at hire continues for life. There’s nothing fair

One of my favorite moments from being a school board president was having the opportunity to attend the graduation ceremony of so many students from year to year. For me, that was what it was all about—getting these young people to the point where they have attained knowledge in preparation for life as adults. It was also a great way to honor all of the hard work they had put in throughout the years. We have now reached that time of the year when more high school seniors have graduated, while others have received bachelors or other higher-education degrees from universities, community colleges, and technical schools. Although earning a degree is an occasion that deserves much celebration, I also recognize that it can bring unwanted anxiety to these graduates who are wondering what their next step in life should be. There’s no doubt that times are tough. Like many, I have been in the situation of having to work a job after high school while working toward my college degree. This is a challenge that I understand, but I’m also confident that everyone can meet their career goals. A great deal of the work I do at the Statehouse is for people just like the recent graduates. The Ohio House has dealt with legislation that specifically applies to education at the local and higher education levels. We have also passed provisions that are geared toward keeping more of Ohio’s graduates inside our state’s borders so that they can apply their education and actively contribute to our economy. The best thing that the Ohio House has done for recent graduates is adopting legislation that will help to create jobs. We have done
this in a variety of ways, including the passage of JobsOhio, which allows our state to more easily cater to the needs of business, enabling them to grow and create jobs. We’ve also worked on items such as the Common Sense Initiative Office, so that we can ensure Ohio’s small businesses are not needlessly being slowed down. A business that can function to its maximum proficiency is going to be all the more successful, which in the long-run allows for expansion. The creation of jobs requires that business and industry can function well. To help them do that, it’s important that our state does everything it can to promote economic growth. At the same time, backing initiatives that will help improve the education of our students is important, because education is the cornerstone of a functioning society. At the end of the day, providing Ohio students with the tools they need is the most important objective. Students who thrive and learn a great deal are not only better prepared for their future educational endeavors, but also more likely to reach their career goals. By starting small and locally, we are truly shaping the future of Ohio. Our students can be prosperous, have great careers, and provide for their future families. I wish the best of luck to all the recent graduates from the 99th House District. If I can be of any assistance to you or other young people, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Letters to the Editor
Yearly drafting of players for JAGS I had the opportunity to attend a Jefferson Area Girls Softball (JAGS) board meeting on June 14, 2012 and to submit a petition urging the board to commence yearly drafting of all players. Currently, players are only drafted to a team when they move up in an age division or if they are new to the league. The current practice, most noticeable in Major and Senior divisions, has resulted in teams that are either heavily peppered with advanced players or teams that struggle to field a team that understands the funda-
mentals of the game. Participants and spectators of these seriously mismatched games have become disgusted. Over 100 signatures supporting the petition were submitted, many of which were from the players. While the board listened to the rationale that yearly drafting would more equitably distribute talent across all teams, promote a more competitive league, and thereby increase the satisfaction of players, parents and spectators, they did voice some concerns. First, a board member asked what
On sportsmanship In the past month, the best and worst of youth sports have appeared. The best is the viral video of Meghan Vogel at the Division III Ohio State track meet stopped during the 3200 meter to help fellow runner Arden McMath. It was one of the great displays of sportsmanship I’ve seen in
some time. I was glad it brought the Ohio Stadium crowd to its feet in appreciation. Then, there is the opposite end of the spectrum, which took place this past weekend at Willoughby’s All-Star Classic Baseball Tournament. Over the weekend I saw more than one
if a coach would only continue coaching if they could have all their players again. My response was to let the coach quit. A real coach would welcome the challenge of taking a group of individuals, assessing their skills, planning a strategy, implementing that plan and evaluating its effectiveness. It does not take a great coach to take a team with travel ball players and/or high school team players and outperform a team with players that only play during the JAGS recreational league season. Better to lose one
coach than to have a mass exodus of players, which is another area of concern plaguing the JAGS board. Another board member stated they have taken steps to eliminate “stacking of teams.” Although these steps were not expounded upon, the board admitted it would take about two (2) years to see the effects. Yearly drafting beginning with the 2013 draft would eliminate stacked teams immediately. Also voiced during the meeting was a concern that yearly drafting would dimin-
ish team rapport. Although none of the board members in attendance currently have children playing in the Jefferson Area Little League (JALL), I was able to share with them my own experience with my son. JALL does draft entire teams on a yearly basis. Team talent is very equitable, games are close (competitive), and camaraderie is high. I invited the board to attend a JALL game where on any given night any team can win. Then look in the dugout to see for themselves. Yearly drafting would not affect
team dynamics negatively. On the contrary, it would foster greater sportsmanship, greater competition, and greater satisfaction. A greater Jefferson Area Girls Softball league would be the result. The JAGS Board is comprised of representatives of the members of the league. Over 100 members support the change. The JAGS Board needs to represent the reasonable request of its members.

player ejected for arguing calls or throwing bats or helmets after strikeouts. I also saw a handful of parents ejected after going on the field after a game to verbally assault an umpire. The Lake Erie Storm Fans took it to different level, having its “fans” sit in the outfield to heckle and verbally abuse its opponents’ 10-year-old players during
the championship game. During a fully legal questioning of a Storm player’s bat, the Lake Erie fans let loose with all sorts of tirades and abuse of the Lyndhurst pitcher and other players that led to a pause in the game as the pitcher, a nine year old, needed some time to regain his composure. To his credit he led Lyndhurst to a 5-2 win.
After the game the Lake Erie fans continued to taunt players and coaches, and regretfully, the Lyndhurst head coach did make a comment that I am sure he regrets. I would hope all the parents, players, and fans would take a long pause and decide what role they really want sports to play in their lives. As a coach, I stress to fans
and players that we root for our players, never against the opposition. Sports can bring out selfless acts and true displays of fairness as well as great competition. Or, it can be an excuse to display classless behavior and set low standards for youth that deserve better. Kurt Kuster Lyndhurst
Robotic milkers on a farm ASHTABULA AGRICULTURE by JOHN PARKER Ashtabula County Farm Bureau Robotic milkers on a farm in northeastern Ohio! That would not have seemed possible 40 or 50 years ago or even 20 or 30 years ago. But four of these new robots are now milking cows on the Denmndale Farm in Johnson Township, Trumbull County. Denmandale Farm is owned and operated by Davis and Betty Denman and their family, daughter Robin and sons Danny and
Davis. It is a family operation milking about 160 cows and farming 1400 acres of land. Their robots are housed in a small building inside one of the main dairy barns on this farm, where the Holstein cows in the herd have access to the robots and can
be milked any time of the day or night. And the cows decide when they want to be milked and enter the robot when they are ready. This is a DeLaval Robotic Milking System that was put into operation May 8. Much of the winter and early spring was spent by the Denman’s getting the addition on their barn and the robots installed. As a result, they found themselves behind in getting spring work done and crops planted, but were thankful for a good weather. Robotic milkers are remarkable machines. When a cow enters the robot, she has access to a supply of pelleted feed to eat. The amount depends on how much milk she is producing, which is determined by an identification transponder relaying information to a computer. As soon as a cow enters the robot, her udder and teats are sanitized with a spray that comes from the robotic arm that has gone underneath her to the udder. Then her teats are automatically washed by the robot and a small sample of milk taken from each quarter of the udder. If there are

any problems with the milk, like mastitis, blood or foreign matter the milk is rejected and does not go into the bulk tank. After the cow is done milking, the milkers come off automatically and she leaves the robot. Another cow is usually waiting to enter to be milked.

High blood pressure means the body is working harder to pump blood. That puts you at risk for heart problems, diabetes or stroke,” Dr. Stephens said. He said we may feel like something is wrong, but not

A-Tech students take career education to a new level by helping area elementary students find future careers BY JAN PERALA A-Tech JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP - The Ashtabula County Technical and Career Campus (A-Tech) educational experience transcends the classroom walls as students gain practical knowledge and utilize higher level thinking skills in laboratory style learning environments and participate in community based internships, but ATech students took career education to a new level throughout this year when they participated in a series of events at local elementary and middle school buildings and at Kent State Ashtabula Campus. Sponsored by A-Tech’s Career Education Department, student ambassadors shared their skills and knowledge with young students at a multi-faceted interactive career day at Lakeshore Primary School this spring that also brought an array of area career professionals to the school. ATech students talked with the kids about programs of study
ranging from carpentry to computers and completed an array of interactive activities geared to illustrate career skills with the elementary students and to provide a glimpse into their future careers. “At A-Tech we are aware that the seeds of career awareness can be planted at an early age, and talking with older students and career professionals about their programs of study and careers and what they’d like to be when they grow up really makes a big impression on elementary age kids,” explained A-Tech K-6 Career Education Coordinator Kay Roller. “Thirty-seven A-Tech students gave their time to help at this career day (at Lakeshore Primary) joining representatives from area organizations and businesses who volunteered to explain their jobs for the elementary students.” Ashtabula County Libraries and Bookmobile, the Conneaut Police and Fire Departments, the Ohio Department of Transportation, ACTS, the Animal Protective
League, the Conneaut Post Office, Ducro Funeral Services, the Ashtabula County Health Department, Greg Sweet Automotive Group and Community Care Ambulance were among the attendees at the Lakeshore Primary Career Day. “Community Care Ambulance has participated in multiple career days for more than five years and I estimate that they have touched the lives of more than 2,000 young students with their entertaining and educational presentations,” Roller said. Lakeshore Primary firstgrader Maria Hanson was so excited about the Career Day organized by A-Tech’s Career Education Department that she came dressed for the occasion. Maria’s career day attire included a nurse’s white coat, cap and stethoscope draped around her neck in traditonal health care professional style. “I want to be a nurse when I grow up and help people get well. My mom is a nurse,” said Maria, who couldn’t wait to test her listening skills with a stethoscope as Health
Care Academy student Tiffany Bevins and Community Care Ambulance District EMT Corey Stickle and Paramedic Jason Fellows explained the sounds she was hearing. The A-Tech programs represented by students at Lakeshore Primary’s Career Day were Graphic Communications, Computer Information Systems, Early Childhood Education, Electricity Public Safety Academy, Design/Drafting, Carpentry and Health Care Academy. At the “Celebrate Careers” event, a collaborative program hosted by A-Tech Career Education Department and After School Discovery, 30 A-Tech students
demonstrated their skills and knowledge and talked about careers with nearly one hundred fourth-, fifth- and sixthgrade students from Lakeside Intermediate School. A-Tech Carpentry students helped the kids nail together their own bird feeders, students in the Graphic Communications program provided guidance as fifth graders decorated their own T-Shirts, Computer Information Systems students provided a robotics demonstration and Power Equipment Technology students showcased intricated pieces of equipment for wide eyed kids. “We were focusing on connections with our Celebrate students - connections be-
tween our staff and students and connections between the school day and after school,” explained After School Discovery Executive Director Pat Seymour. “A-Tech students provided powerful examples of both. The [A-Tech] students were well prepared and incorporated examples of how math and language arts skills are important for them at school and for their future careers. A-Tech students took their role as mentors for our younger students seriously - but also related well to students’ questions and their need to explore. They provided hands-on ex-

Andy Holloman - Owner
Ohio Farm Bureau Federation was started in 1919 by a man named Murray Lincoln, whom was steadfast on forming cooperatives to create better opportunities for those involved with agriculture, most notably group purchases of agriculture products, rural telecommunication systems and marketing. He was very successful in sharing his mission and his business, and 1926, created the Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance. In the 1955, this company became so large, it became Nationwide Insurance. Your Ashtabula and Lake County Farm Bureau was granted its official article of incorporation in 1949 and 1944 and since then, has engaged in a number of issues within the county, state and federal level. Over the years we have worked with a large number of organizations right here in Lake and Ashtabula County as well as the state of Ohio. Some of these organizations include Nationwide Insurance, Western Reserve Farm Cooperative, Ashtabula and Lake County Soil and Water Conservation District, Ohio State University Extension - Ashtabula, Dodge and General Motors dealerships, Ashtabula and Lake County Tourism, Lake and Ashtabula County Fair, The Holstein Club, The Grange, Aloterra Energy, Ashtabula Cattlemen's Association, Vintage Ohio Wine Festival, West Orchards, 4H and FFA, hundreds of elected officials as well as many others. In April 2011, the Farm Bureau office (which also services Geauga and Trumbull Counties) relocated its office to the southern end of Orwell Township, after over 20 years in downtown Orwell. For Lake, make sure to stop by our Ice Cream Social on July 9th at the Lake County Fairgrounds, as we share some delicious ice cream and craft some new policy for the upcoming annual meeting. But don't forget about our Farmers Feed Our Needs Food Drive on October 20th at West Orchards. There are ALWAYS opportunities to volunteer with Farm Bureau - it could be just one hour at one event, or maybe you want to spearhead one particular project, regardless, we will find a place for you. If you have a policy idea, don't hesitate to send it to our office! We are Farm Bureau, a non-profit agriculture organization that is dedicated to not only agriculture, but to our communities and we thank you for supporting us all of these years as a member. We hope to see you at one of our events soon!

From page 5B because they were tired of the labor needed to milk in the parlor 365 days a year. Now this labor is freed up to do other farm work, except for the maintenance of the robots. Each robot can handle 50 to 60 cows so they will probably add more as time goes on. Cows in this herd are housed in a free stall barn and the stalls have water beds that are covered with a layer of sawdust, which
makes a comfortable bed. They have access to feed and water 24 hours a day. The feed is a mixture of haylage, corn silage, soybean oil meal and minerals, balanced to meet the needs of the cows. An alley scraper cleans manure from the alleys of the barn every four hours. Denman’s farm 1400 acres of land with about 500 in corn, 500 in soybeans, over 150 in alfalfa hay and
150 in grass hay. They like to start making alfalfa hay in early May and grass soon after. This year, their alfalfa got frozen eight times and they still had a crop but a bit short. This robotic milking system represents a major investment for this family but they believe it will pay off in labor saved and family comfort. Parker is an independent agricultural writer.

PORCH Wheeler? One said he was at Fairfax Seminary Hospital the first time I came there. Two others said they, too, were there among the Ohio boys; that the Surgeon pronounced them fit for duty and sent them on to join their regiment. A relapse followed, and there they were. Their names are Henry Decker, Hartsgrove; E. M. Holcomb, Ashtabula; E. J. Matty, Trumbull; and A. M. Knowlton, Morgan. One little fellow said: ‘I used to see you in Austinburg, and went to school with Frank and Earnest.’ (I have not been able to discover Wheeler’s maiden name, but

From page 3B perhaps these two mentioned were her brothers.) Askue writes to wife, Flavia, of the Battle at Munson’s Hill, still about 15 miles from Washington. He wrote,” There is thousands of troops between here and the Potomac and thousands ahead of us I will not tell you the number but on either side of us it exceeds my age in years by over 10 thousand as near as I can learn. While I write heavy cannonading is heard in the distance and has been all day and was yesterday but with what result we do not know favorable I think. Askue finally arrived at
Munson’s Hill on September 1st, 1862 and he wrote: “There are plenty of fortifications all around where we are with arms and men enough to hold them I think against any force that the rebels are able to send against us. There was heavy cannonading here all day the 29th and 30th. We got there the 30th and could hear a continual roar of cannon from morning until night. There was not firing heard here on yesterday but at dark last night a few guns were fired. I have heard the report that we lost 8 thousands and they 15 but I suppose no one knows the result
yet. We hear of fighting in other places; hear of their making an attempt on Harpers Ferry but got drove back. Of one thing I am satisfied in my own mind and that is that they are making their last strike and if Jackson is captured with his force, the rest will soon be cared for and then hurrah for home once more and beat the sword into the plow share and learn the art of peace once more. Next week, Wheeler describes the horror she experiences as thousands start flooding into the hospitals while thousands more lay on the battlefield dead, dying or wounded.

This helps the chapter to raise funds to send members to conference in October.

Come and spend the day at the Show having fun, stay for a home cooked meal, and an evening of entertainment.

GAZETTE NEWSPAPERS • WEEK OF WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 2012 • 11B
At Home with Vicky Marcy Hi everyone! It’s hard to believe that the fourth of July is less than two weeks away. There’s so much to do and so little time to get it done! Festivals, picnics, reunions, family get-togethers; it seems like every weekend is filled with things to do. Since the weather hasn’t been too warm I thought our garden probably wouldn’t be ready to harvest until close to the holidays. Nothing seemed to be growing so I took a stroll out to see what was going on. Surprise! Every tomato plant has a few little green tomatoes and I found four, that’s right, four ripe strawberries over in the strawberry pots. I know, I know, I shouldn’t get so excited about finding fresh fruit, but I just planted them last month and didn’t expect fruit until next year. You should see me when the tomatoes are ripe! Salt shaker in one hand, wet paper towel in the other to wipe the fresh plucked tomato and lunch is served. I love fresh rhubarb; clean it, salt it, eat it! It’s a little sour but it sure is good! You would think I would be as thin as a rail because I love fruits and vegetables. Nope! I think it’s because I
Macaroni and Chicken Salad
Vickie Marcy like to use the fruits and veggies to make other great tasting things like pizza, rhubarb pie, strawberry shortcake, cheesy cauliflower and the list goes on and on. Well, at least I’m eating my fruits and veggies, even if they are swimming in cheese sauce or sugar or topped with ice cream. Ok, enough on that subject. Someone asked me a few days ago if I had a recipe for green tomato jelly or pie. Hmm, I love fried green tomatoes, but I’ve never had the jelly or pie. If anyone out there has heard of these or even better, have the recipe and would like to share them please let me know. Anyway, enough about that, lets get to some recipes that are sure to become favorites!
QUICK TIP OF THE WEEK: Refresh stale potato chips, crackers or other snack items by putting a plateful in the microwave for 30 - 45 seconds. Let stand for 1 minute to crisp. Cereal can also be crisped in microwave, using the above steps.
16 oz. cooked, drained macaroni 1 green pepper, chopped 1 sweet onion, chopped 3 stalks celery, chopped 1 Large can chicken breast, drained 1 cup Miracle Whip 1/8 cup vinegar 2 tablespoons sugar 1 tsp. salt 2 tablespoons yellow mustard 1/2 cup milk In large bowl, combine Miracle Whip, vinegar, sugar, salt and yellow mustard. Mix well, add milk and stir until smooth. Add vegetables and macaroni, stir to combine. Add chicken; fold in gently. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
No Fuss Magic Bars 2 Cups graham cracker crumbs 8 oz. chocolate chips 8 oz. coconut 8 oz. coarsely chopped walnuts 1 Can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.) Mix first four ingredients together, add milk. Stir until completely blended. Spread in 9X13 inch pan, bake for 15 - 18 minutes in 350 degree oven. Remove, and let set for a few minutes before cutting.
Fruit Fluff 24 oz. container cottage cheese 15 oz. can crushed pineapple, undrained 6 oz pkg. orange Jell-o 1 16 oz. container whipped topping Place cottage cheese in large bowl. Sprinkle dry Jello over cottage cheese, mix well. Add pineapple, stir to blend. Add whipped topping, mix well. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight. Until next week, stay safe and happy!
Beach Glass Festival back for fourth year BY SADIE PORTMAN Gazette Newspapers ASHTABULA - For the fourth year in a row, the Bridge Street area of Ashtabula will be hosting the Beach Glass Festival on June 23 and 24, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The festival is a street festival with vendors from across the United States coming together to sell and show off their beach glass finds and artwork. “People that are beach glass collectors are interested in the festival,” Troy Dalrymple, organizer of the festival, said. Many will come to the
festival to get another pair of beach glass earrings, bracelet or necklace, but there is more artwork that can be made with the glass such as wind chimes, mosaics, car charms, postcards, notecards and one-of-akind silverware and many more items. “Jewelry is probably the largest category of things to do with beach glass, but there are many different things that can be done with beach glass,” Dalrymple said. As a thank you for four years of the festival and the continuing support of the community and visitors
who will venture up to Bridge Street, this year will also feature a raffle. “This year we will be selling raffle tickets and each vendor will donate a piece for the raffle so throughout the day we will be drawing winners,” Dalrymple said. They are also adding music all throughout the day. “We will be having a disc jockey so there will be music on the streets,” Dalrymple said. The Beach Glass Festival is also a time to learn about the unique craft of finding and collecting
beach glass. Many vendors will feature the different colors of the glass and the origin of the glass. You can also see the difference in lake beach glass, such as the ones found on the shores of Lake Erie, and sea beach glass. The sea beach glass tends to be a rougher cut and the lake glass is smoother due to the rockier bottom of the lake. People from Youngstown and even across the state lines have attended the festival, and Dalrymple said
Cooking with Susan By Susan Masirovits English garden peas, snow peas, sugar snap peas – all very different and yet much alike. In fact, the crossing of the English pea with an edible seed and inedible pod and the snow pea with a edible pod and no seeds to speak of, resulted in the sugar snap pea that has both an edible seed and pod. Two of this week’s recipes feature the garden pea and the snow pea, although snap peas could be substituted – just chop them into bite-sized pieces. The cooking times and methods remain the same. The final recipe is a seasoning blend that’s great over steamed snap peas or other vegetables. It can also be used as a salad sprinkle of as a topping for grilled or broiled meat or fish.
PEA SALAD 2 and one-half cups blanched fresh or thawed frozen peas 2 cups cooked Israeli couscous or brown rice 1 cup diced, seeded cucumber 1 cup diced radishes One-half cup chopped green onions One-quarter cup buttermilk 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt 2 tablespoons mayonnaise 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste Combine the peas, couscous, cucumber, radishes & onion in a mixing bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, yogurt & mayonnaise. Stir in the tarragon, salt & pepper. Pour onto the vegetables & toss to coat. Serves 4 to 6.
BUTTERED SNOW PEAS & CARROTS Three-quarters cup water 2 cups carrots cut into matchstick-sized pieces 2 cups snow peas cut into thirds lengthwise 2 tablespoons butter Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives In a skillet, bring the water to a simmer. Add the carrots, cover, reduce the heat & simmer for 3 minutes. Add the snow peas, cover & cook an additional 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender. Add the butter, stirring until the butter melts & coats the vegetables. Season & top with the chives. Serves 4.
SEASONING BLEND One-quarter cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon fresh thyme 1 tablespoon lemon zest Combine the ingredients and chop to make uniformly fine mixture. Makes about one-quarter cup, enough to season 4 servings. The Jefferson Farmers’ Market opened last Saturday in the parking lot of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, 32 E. Jefferson St. Be sure to stop by between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Who ya gonna call? Ashtabula County’s radio hams Public Demonstration of Emergency Communications set for June 23-24 Despite the Internet, cell phones, email and modem communications, every year whole regions find themselves in the dark. Tornadoes, fires, storms, ice, and even the occasional cutting of fiber optic cables leave people with the means to communicate. In these cases, the one consistent service that has never failed has been Amateur Radio. These radio operators, often called “hams,” provide backup communications for everything from the America Red Cross to FEMA and even for the International Space Station. Ashtabula County’s “hams” will join with thousands of other Amateur Radio operators showing their emergency capabilities this weekend. Over the past year, the news has been full of reports of ham radio operators providing critical communica-
tions during unexpected emergencies in towns across America including the California wild fires, winter storm, tornadoes, and other events world-wide. When trouble is brewing, Amateur Radio’s people are often the first to provide rescuers with critical information and communications. On the weekend of June 23-24, the public will have a chance to meet and talk with Ashtabula County’s ham radio operators and see for themselves what the Amateur Radio Service is about as hams across the USA will be holding public demonstrations of emergency communications abilities. This annual event, called “Field Day,” is the climax of the week long “Amateur Radio Week” sponsored by the ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio. Using only emergency power supplies, ham radio operators will construct emergency stations in parks, shopping malls, schools, and backyards around the country. Their slogan, “When All Else Fails, Ham Radio
Works,” is more than just words to the hams as they prove they can send messages in many forms without the use of phone systems, internet or any other infrastructure that can be compromised in a crisis. More than 35,000 amateur radio operators across the country participated in last year’s event. “The fastest way to turn a crisis into a total disaster is to lose communications,” said Allen Pitts of the ARRL. From the earthquake and tsunami in Japan to tornadoes in Missouri, ham radio provided the most reliable communications networks in the first critical hours of the events. Because ham radios are dependent on the Internet, cell towers, or other infrastructure, they work when nothing else is available. We need nothing between us but air.” In the Ashtabula County area, the Ashtabula County Amateur Radio Club will be demonstrating Amateur Radio at the Ashtabula County Fairgrounds in Jefferson, Ohio, on June 23-24. They
invite the public to come and see ham radio’s new capabilities and learn how to get their own FCC radio license before the next disaster strikes. The Ashtabula County Amateur Radio Club will also be conducting initial operations from the new Emergency Communications Trailer that the club purchased earlier this year. Amateur Radio is growing in the US. There are now over 700,000 Amateur Radio licensees in the US and more than 2.5 million around the world. Through the ARRL’s Amateur Radio Emergency Services program, ham volunteers provide both emergency communications for thousands of state and local emergency response agencies and non-emergency community services too, all for free. To team more about Amateur Radio, go to www.emergency-radio.org. The public is most cordially invited to come, meet, and talk with hams. See what modern Amateur Radio can do. They can even help you get on the air!
Shear Excitement: Fiber-producing animals take center stage at Farmpark’s Woolfest KIRTLAND - Ever wonder how materials to make a sweater or scarf or other garments are produced from fiber? At Woolfest, discover first-hand how the handspun and woven products are created from natural fibers, such as the fleece of farm animals. The process begins with removing the fleece from the animal. Watch shearing of sheep, an angora goat, and even a llama. Also, continue the journey by trying knitting, spinning, weaving, dyeing and carding the wool. Demonstrations throughout the weekend include sheep herding, spinning, weaving and knitting. Woolfest weaves its way into Farmpark 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 23 and 24. Due to the nature of the event, no pets are allowed on Farmpark grounds other than pre-registered animals
for shows, classes or vendors. Fiber-producing animals take center stage at Woolfest. Get an up-close look and pet many of the breeds of fiber-producing animals – llamas, alpacas, angora rabbits, and 20 different breeds of sheep. Many hands-on crafts, including creating felt balls, are available for children to make. Sign children up for special spinning and knitting classes upon admission to the park. The quality of natural fibers, fiber craft supplies, books, and hand-woven, hand-knitted, or handcrafted fiber products are to be discover at the Fiber Marketplace. Forty vendors from across the Midwest showcase natural fiber products from the raw fiber to finished products and
demonstrate spinning, loom weaving, knitting and more for sale. Other products including garments and art produced from animals’ fibers will also be on display. A complete list of vendors is available online on the Woolfest page at lakemetroparks.com.

May 23, 1926 - June 12, 2012
Margaret “Peg” Woodman Loeb passed away in Tucson, Arizona on June 12 at the age of 91 after a brief hospitalization as a result of a fall. She was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio. After graduating from high school in Youngstown, she attended Miami University and graduated from Youngstown State. After a brief teaching stint, she became an airline hostess with Capitol Airlines and was based out of Washington, D.C. She married David Loeb and they lived in Ashtabula for 55 years. They owned the Globe Bell clothing store which was in the Loeb family for 70 years. She and her husband lived on Amelia Avenue in the Bunker Hill area where they raised their 3 children, Susanne, Marmee and David. Peg was an integral part of building the YMCA/YWCA on Lake Avenue and because of her love of reading, was a long-time member of Fortnightly Book Club. Bunker Hill Elementary School benefited from her PTA involvement. Peg enjoyed a good game of golf and always loved spending time at Redbrook Beach with her friends, children, and relatives. She and her family were members of the First Presbyterian Church. As a result of her husband’s automobile accident in 1973 (which left him a paraplegic) and until his death in 1994, she was his devoted caretaker. In 1987 she and her husband began splitting their time between Green Valley, Arizona and Ashtabula. In 2001 she became a full-time resident of Green Valley and at the time of her passing was a resident of La Posada Retirement Community where she had been living independently. Peg Woodman Loeb had deep roots in Ashtabula. Her mother, Margaret Beach, was raised here and Peg would spend summers at their family cottage across from the Ashtabula Country Club. Her grandparents on her father’s side (Charles and Minnie Woodman) lived in the large white house at the corner of Bunker Hill and Woodman Avenue (hence the name). It was while visiting her Grandparents (when they were not living at their coffee plantation in Costa Rica)
and cousins (Rudy, Francis, C.A, and Bill Herzog) at the Woodman home, that she met David Loeb. However, their friendship did not turn into love until she started writing to him while he was serving in the Army in Africa and Europe during WWII. Peg had a love for life that few have achieved. She traveled extensively her last 18 years and would tell everyone her favorite trip was to the Galapagos Islands. She was extremely loyal to all her friends, never forgetting birthdays and special events. You knew Peg would be there for you in whatever way she could and was exceptionally generous. Peg is survived by her brother, Charles Woodman of Youngstown, and her three children, Susanne Loeb Blodgett of Green Valley, Margaret (Marmee) Loeb Hasemeyer of Denver, and David William Loeb of Culiacan, Mexico and Green Valley. Her grandchildren are Jody Adams of Denver, Mark Hasemeyer of Boulder, Brad Hasemeyer of Denver, Bianca Rowley of Tucson, and David Benham Loeb of Culiacan, Mexico. Her great grandchildren, whose paternal Grandparents and Great Grandparents are Bob and Dottie Rowley and the late Don and Charlotte Rowley (all formerly of Ashtabula and publishers of the Star Beacon) are Robert David (R.D.) Rowley and Jayden Rowley of Tucson. A graveside service will be held on Thursday, June 28 at 11 a.m. at Ridgeview Cemetery (Austinburg Rd.), with Rev. Steven Long of the 1st Presbyterian Church officiating. DUCRO FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATION SERVICES are handling arrangements. Donations in Peg’s memory can be made to the non-profit MedianGreen, Inc.
