Making Kids Count delivers boots to students

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Making Kids Count visited Austintown Elementary School to deliver free boots to 28 students.

Jana Coffin and Colleen Eisenbraun, co-presidents of Making Kids Count, delivered the boots to students on Dec. 3.

“It’s called the best foot forward boot program,” Coffin said.

“We go to all these schools in Mahoning and Trumball county.

Schools where anyone who has over 45 percent free and reduced lunch are selected.”

The program has been active for three years, Coffin said, and was started with the help of Mike Iberis from the Italian Scholarship Fund and Second Harvest Food Bank.

“He came to us and said that their plans were to clothe and feed and shelter and we talked about boots because we don’t think anyone does boots in the area,” Coffin said.

That year, Iberis was able to secure the program $10,000 used to purchase boots for local students.

This year, the Italian Scholarship Foundation donated

Austintown Elementary School counselors and Making Kids Count representatives handed out 28 pairs of boots to Austintown students on Dec. 3.

$15,000, along with $5,000 from the Ronald McDonald House and $3,000 from private donors going to purchase more than 650 pairs of boots.

New this year students in Youngstown Schools will also be receiving socks which were purchased by the Kiwanis Club of Youngstown.

“Some of the kids the first year we took off their shoes to try on

the boots and they weren’t wearing socks,” Coffin said. “It was late in the year then, around January, so we knew we needed to do socks as well.”

The need of individual schools is determined by what percentage of students receive free and reduced lunch. The program then uses a rubric based on enrollment numbers to determine how many referrals each school

receives for number of boots.

Coffin said that school counselors are then contacted with information about the program and they choose the students who will receive boots.

Counselors then send the names, grades and shoe sizes back to Making Kids Count, who order the shoes and then deliver See BOOTS, Page 4

Members of the Austintown robotics team prepared for the first competition of the season on Dec. 1.

Austintown’s robotics tournament was space-themed, titled “Rover Ruckus” where robots were created to carry plastic balls and cubes and place them in a container in the center of the field.

Austintown hosts FIRST Tech challenge robotics tournament

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Austintown hosted a FIRST Tech Challenge robotics tournament on Dec. 1 at Austintown Middle School.

Head coach of the team Andy Yantes said that this is the second year the tournament has been hosted by Austintown.

“This is an actual regional tournament this one people can advance to the state tournament and then the world tournament,” Yantes said.

Austintown’s team consists of a team of 22 eighth- to ninthgraders.

Twenty-four additional teams from across the state of Ohio traveled to Austintown to compete.

Yantes said that beginning in September everyone around the country is given a game to design their robot to compete in.

This year was space themed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing in 2019.

“For FTC its Rover Ruckus,” Yantes said. “They have a lander that sits in the middle of the field and they have to collect minerals and put them in the appropriate spot on the lander.”

The minerals in the competition are plastic cubes and balls that the robots are designed to pick up and place in the appropriate spots.

Yantes said many of the teams competing against Austintown during the tournament were made up of high school students

from other schools.

This is because Austintown is one of the only schools with an ongoing robotics program from kindergarten through senior year of high school.

Yantes started a Lego league for elementary school students six years ago. Children in those grades use Legos to create less advanced robots that, according to Yantes, they will display later this year.

The FIRST Tech Challenge tournament was designed as a transitional level for students to move from creating Lego robots to more advanced robots as they get older.

“It’s really exciting seeing the kids grow up. I have seen these guys since they were in sixth

Austintown’s robotics team FIRST Tech Challenge tournament, the first tournament of the robotics season in Ohio, took place on Dec. 1 at Austintown Middle School.

grade and now they are seniors,” Yantes said.

During the tournament competing teams will break into alliances and rack up points based on how many minerals they are able to properly place during allotted times.

Along with students who control and build the robots, Yantes said there are a variety of other jobs students are judged off of.

“As with anything the whole concept of robotics is to teach them the different skills. The big one is we want kids to be excited about engineering and STEM based things, but there are different groups,” Yantes said.

He explained that a group of students works on an engineering notebook, which outlines the

groups progress in designing and building the robot.

These students will get judged on their presentation of the notebook.

“There’s also a marketing piece to that and it teaches to them about business plans,” Yantes said.

Robotics also includes a community service piece, with students from the high school coaching elementary school students and volunteering at the tournament.

“Part of our community service and a big piece of what we do is us hosting it. They also do other community service projects throughout the year,” Yantes said. “It’s not just ‘I want to build a robot.’ It can be anything.”

Mill Creek Park plans renovations for Ford Nature Center

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Mill Creek Park aimed to collect the money needed to renovate the Ford Nature Center on Giving Tuesday on Nov. 27.

Chris Litton, the director of development, said that the center hasn’t received serious renovations for 25 years.

“The renovations are much needed,” Litton said.

To help them reach this goal, the park received a matching grant from the Sand Hill Foundation in California.

Litton said Sand Hill would match every dollar raised by the park up to $1 million to benefit the center.

“We have never really done this before,” Litton said. “This is a first for us.”

The park was able to raise $7,423 on Tuesday which will be matched by the grant to total $14,846.

Litton said the largest donation of $5,000, came from Thomas and Katherine Shipka.

“We are very grateful to the Shipka’s for their generous and

continued support of the Mill Creek MetroParks Foundation,” Litton said.

T he Ford Nat u re Center opened in 1972 and is the epicenter of education programs for the park.

Currently housed in the center are the Habitat Room, the Discovery Room and a Live Animal Room.

Children are able to travel to the center to learn about local animals, their habitats and other aspects of the nature in the park.

The center also houses a teachers’ resource center, which has a range of books, videos and other materials for local teachers to use in their class rooms.

The center offers a variety of programs for school age children t hroughout t he yea r, marking it as one of the most utilized buildings in the Mill Creek Park.

Litton said construction on the center will likely begin in Spring 2019.

“It’s an important building and it needs the renovations,” Litton said.
