First, 18 cement trashcans and eight planters were transformed from dull, gray cylinders to bright and creative works of art stretching along Main Street in East Toledo.

Next, Owens-Illinois employees volun-teered with the East Toledo Family Center and the LeSo Gallery to paint and add color to benches and bus stops along the same corridor. The project was a partnership be-tween LeSo Gallery, the East Toledo Family Center, the East Toledo Club, and volun-teers from Owens-Illinois.

Last week, 19 murals were painted by nine artists, including local eighth-graders, at 813 Starr Ave. on a building that a year ago was a public eyesore. The fi nal mural was completed at 5 p.m. on July 2, complet-ing phase one of a public arts project led by LeSo and community leaders.

One mural, painted by LeSo Gallery co-owner Amber LeFever and another art-ist, depicts a portrait of the 18-month-old Elaina Steinfurth surrounded by a bed of roses.

Last December, Elaina’s mother, Angela Steinfurth, and Angela’s 24-year-old boyfriend, Steven King II, pled guilty for their roles in Elaina’s murder. That ho-micide attracted national media, casting a gray cloud over an East Toledo community

Main/Starr corridor

already reeling from a bad image. Elaina’s grandfather is a neighbor to

the LeSo Gallery owners, who live above their business at Starr and Valleywood.

“It was our fi nal piece to the 19 murals that we installed, so it’s kind of our grand fi nale,” LeFever said. “Being a communi-ty-based arts gallery, we really wanted to come up with an idea that was community engaging and meaningful to our neighbor-hood. So, Adam (Soboleski), the other co-owner of LeSo, thought of the idea.”

What’s next? LeSo and other Main-Starr corridor businesses are planning an entertainment and arts festival for Sept. 13, which will include two stages featuring

live bands. Main Street will be blocked off between Front and Fourth streets. “It’s kind of a work in progress,” LeFever said. “The people at Frankie’s and Mainstreet Bar are on the music commit-tee, so they will be working on the music aspect and up here at LeSo, we are working on the pop-up galleries. “Basically, pop-up galleries are when artists take on an under-utilized base and turn it into a gallery, and it’s like never a gallery again. It is designed to bring light to those underutilized bases and hope that they are becoming utilized bases. Pop-up galleries have been around for a while. A few years ago, at a glass con-ference, which is where all the glass peo-ple came to Toledo, there were multiple pop-up galleries that came out of there,” LeFever continued. Toledo District 3 Councilman Mike Craig handles permitting and leading fund-raising efforts. He says the partnership has a long way to get the project off the ground, but he’s confi dent it will happen. He ad-mits he can use any help he can get. “I’ve raised about $10,000, but $12,000 pays for the infrastructure — the band-stands, the port-a-potties — all the stuff that you need,” Craig said. “That doesn’t pay for the talent. The talent is going to be $20,000 to $25,000 more.”

A movement is under way to transform the old concrete fi re dock into a boat launch in downtown Oak Harbor. During Monday’s village council meet-ing, Administrator Randy Genzman re-viewed the funding breakdown for the ren-ovation project revived last year after years on the back burner. He said a $62,850 Land and Water Conservation Fund grant has been obligated to the village and a $28,650 grant through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Nature Works is pending. Should both be secured, the village share would cost about $34,200 if the proj-ect comes in at the low estimate of $125,000 calculated by ODNR staff, the administrator said. The project falls in line with a low-key effort to revitalize the downtown to bring more visitors – and more spending – to Oak Harbor businesses. The old fi re dock structure located at the end of Church Street at the Portage River was once used to provide water service to fi re trucks battling blazes in the downtown area. It has, however, remained dormant for years, Genzman said. The work site could impact the public easement along Church Street as well as the rear properties of Oak Harbor Hardware, Croghan Colonial Bank, U.S. Bank and the old Gordon Lumber yard. Renovation would concentrate on constructing a hand-powered boat launch and dock and pier area for canoes, kayaks and similar watercraft. No access for mo-tor-powered vehicles would be allowed, Genzman explained. Councilman Jim Seaman wondered if the village might be able to use in-kind donations toward the village’s grant com-mitment instead of cash. He outlined a few suggestions, including using village labor. “All these kind of things make the job more doable,” councilman Jon Fickert agreed. Genzman said he would explore the possibility with ODNR offi cials. Councilwoman Sue Rahm, who joined

Public arts gaining momentum Why all these public arts in an East Toledo community many suburban, rural, and even west side residents believe is the pit of Northwest Ohio? Because the people involved want to change that. “I feel like it’s taking off quicker than we thought it would, and it’s been project after project, and we’re thinking, ‘Wow, what are we going to do next?” LeFever said. “We’re working on the initial plan-ning stages for the mural on First and Main and that’s going to be a pretty big project. “Honestly, this neighborhood is every-thing to us. We live here, we work here, we want to be successful, we want our com-munity positive and happy, and I feel like art is our trade, art is our talent, and that is the best way that we can make improve-ments,” she said. It starts with art, but East Toledo Family Center community builder and One Voice for East Toledo leader Jodi Gross says it doesn’t have be just art. But, it’s makes for a good catalyst, she adds. “It’s nice to see those visuals,” Gross said. “It does clean it up with the trash cans and the benches now — it just shows up. Does everything have to be art? I think no, but it adds color and I think just adds to the neighborhood. “I think the important piece is that it needs to be unique to East Toledo and showing that things are being done and that everybody can work together to make this stuff happen. That’s probably one of the important things because it takes a lot of people and logistics to get these projects completed,” Gross continued. Of course, one worry is the possibility vandals will come along and wreak havoc on the trash cans, which are not bolted down. They are, however, heavy, weighing about 300 pounds each when empty. Some are already damaged, too.

“It’s harder to notice now that it’s been painted, but a number of them have the top edges chipped and they are broken from people tipping them over,” Craig said.

“I got the city to buy new liners because some of the liners were actually just store bought-trash cans inside there. They look much, much nicer.” There’s another reason LeFever be-lieves, or hopes, that the artwork will not get defaced — public pride. “We really hope that doesn’t happen,” LeFever said. “I believe once you beautify things, people take pride in them. We’re just not going to stop some dumb kids from doing something silly.” Also playing a role was the East Toledo Club, which provided funding for the supplies for the bench project. Roger Dodsworth, an assistant director at the Family Center, says the East Toledo Club has money to offer to other groups wishing to complete beautifi cation projects on Main Street. One Voice has also included arts and entertainment in its strategies for the neigh-borhoods, along with housing surveys it is currently conducting to inventory property conditions. “We did play a little bit of a role,” Gross said. “Originally, some of the One Voice strategies included some arts pieces of that. Mike (Craig) was very instrumental in doing that — he’s the one who took the lead on that, but we had talked about those as our strategies. “I think it’s great and I think it’s going to be very good for East Toledo. He’s al-ready made some things happen. If he can keep progressing, I think it’s really nice that he’s working with LeSo,” Gross continued. “I think we’re really trying to make a difference with these housing surveys, be-cause people are seeing the volunteers that are out there on Saturday mornings. We’ve noticed that there are some places that are kind of cleaning up and doing some things that weren’t before, so we have to get to those folks. The renters, the landlords, all have to get together, especially if they have a vested interest in East Toledo.”

Court dismisses veteran’s appealin shootout case By Larry LimpfNews [email protected]

A divided Ohio Supreme Court Thursday dismissed an appeal from an Oregon man who claimed the stress he incurred during the Iraq War was a factor when he engaged in a shootout three years ago with city police. Jeffery Belew was appealing a 27-year sentence imposed by the Lucas County Common Pleas Court, arguing his post-traumatic stress disorder wasn’t given ap-propriate consideration as a mitigating fac-tor in his behavior. According to court records, Belew on April 10, 2011 fi red at least four shots at po-lice offi cers who were responding to a do-mestic disturbance call. Two shots hit a po-lice car and Belew didn’t respond to com-mands to stop fi ring until he was wounded by offi cers returning fi re. He was arrested and received medical care. Justices Paul Pfeifer, Terrence O’Donnell, Sharon Kennedy and Judith French agreed the court shouldn’t have ac-cepted the appeal. Justice Judith Lanzinger’s dissent said that while the Supreme Court agreed the trial court did properly take Belew’s post—traumatic stress disorder into consider-ation during his sentencing, an opinion should still be rendered on how PTSD must be considered by a court when it sentences a veteran. “And just as important, we should clarify the standard that an appellate court must use in reviewing a sentence of this type,” Lanzinger wrote. “It is my position that only a full opinion by this court will clarify both the appellate court’s standard of review and the trial court’s need to sup-port the record for a felony sentence.” Belew had entered pleas of not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity to two counts of attempted aggravated murder of a law-enforcement offi cer and two counts of felonious assault. He was evaluated by two psychologists who reported to the court he didn’t qualify for an insanity defense. One psychologist diagnosed him with alcohol dependence and persistent major depression and PTSD as a result of his service in Iraq. The psy-chologist believed Belew was hoping to be killed by police on the day of the shooting. The other psychologist found evidence of a possible personality disorder. The Sixth District Court of Appeals af-fi rmed the trial court’s order. In his dissent, Justice William O’Neill argued the decision by the appeals court should have been reversed and remanded to the trial court for a new sentencing hear-ing that “properly” takes into consideration Belew’s service record and PTSD diagnosis. ”We are here today because of the tragic events that led to his conviction,” O’Neill wrote. “It is without question, and well supported in the record, that this trou-bled throwaway from society wanted to commit suicide by cop. There is no other explanation for why and individual would open fi re on two approaching well-trained, well-armed police offi cers. He failed. Rather than dying, Belew received a non-fatal bullet to the chest – and not one of the offi cers was struck. He took responsibility for his actions and pled guilty to several of-fenses but received an aggregate sentence of 27 years in prison that was far harsher than it should have been.” Belew’s “less-than-honorable dis-charge deprived him of the medical as-sistance from the federal Department of Veterans Affairs that he so desperately needed,” O’Neill wrote. Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor agreed with Lanzinger’s separate dissent that the Supreme Court should have affi rmed the appeals court decision to uphold the con-viction.

One task facing Sam Rose, the mayor of Rocky Ridge, isn’t something the mayor says he isn’t looking forward to, but the search for a new fi re chief for the Ottawa County village has begun. The village is accepting applications for the position long held by Raymond Brown, who is stepping down. “He’s been a fi refi ghter for more than 50 years,” Rose said, adding Brown has submitted his resignation to him. “That’s a tough role to fi ll – a volunteer fi re chief

with all the responsibility. It’s a hard role to fi ll. We serve a region here and we’re a back-up for the Portage Fire District.” The mayor said Brown has been hav-ing health problems. Brown is also a member of village council. An advertisement by the village calls for applicants to submit resumes to the mayor by 5 p.m. on July 28 at the village ad-ministration building, 14570 Kania Drive, P.O. Box 218, Rocky Ridge, O. 43458. Resumes can also be sent by email to [email protected]. “We need a candidate who can lead the men,” Rose said. “We’re in close communi-

cation with the Portage district and Chief (Mike) Almendinger assured our region full coverage. There will be no lapse in emer-gency service for anyone. ”I think the most viable attribute for the position is a willingness to serve and an ability to lead and communicate with the village government.” Brown’s son, Randy, is the acting chief, he said. Brown was last elected to council in 2011 as an incumbent. The fi re department is supported by a 5-mill property tax levy. Rose said the village will seek a renew-al of the levy on the November ballot.

Ohio 163 water line project The state recently awarded an Ohio Public Works Issue 2 grant to fund construction of Phase 2 of the Ohio 163 water line east of the village. Advertising can begin after July 15 and work is expected to be fi nished this fall. The estimated project cost is $649,000. The village received a $324,000 grant. The cash payout for Oak Harbor is $162,000, according to the grant. To cover that, the village also applied for and received an Ohio Public Works Commission loan. Loan terms include zero percent interest and semi-annual payments over 20 years, according to Genzman.

High grass at solar panel fi eld Councilman Fickert continued his campaign to force Solar Planet to cut the grass on village land where the company placed solar panels. Fickert has often noted this spring and sum-mer the hypocrisy of enforcing main-tenance violations among residents when the same rules are not applied to this property under public ownership. Despite many pleas last summer, the company mowed the lawn once last fall. A portion of the mowing is done under the panels but standing water is hampering work around the panels, Genzman reported. “Do we afford all of the citizens on the maintenance violation list that type of time,” Fickert asked. No, Genzman answered. Councilman Jim Seaman suggest-ed checking out the cost of spraying and giving the company that option.

Pillich talks about veterans’ issues at Dunberger PostBy Kelly J. KaczalaPress News [email protected]

State Rep. Connie Pillich, from the Cincinnati area, swung by the American Legion – Christ Dunberger Post No. 537 on Thursday to discuss veterans’ issues. Pillich, who is a candidate for Ohio treasurer, has introduced legislation to im-prove the lives of veterans. She spent eight years in the Air Force, fi rst as a lieutenant, then a captain. She was stationed in the United States as well as overseas. “I went in as a sec-ond lieutenant, and served in support of Operation Desert Storm. I’ve made it my focus to help our veterans and make sure we do everything to help their families as well,” she said. Pillich is doing roundtable discussions across the state to address veterans affairs, with a focus on fi nances. “I talk about the fi nancial issues. We all know how hard it is to be in the military. I didn’t own anything other than what I had in my car. It was very easy to get a loan, but it was a lot of work to pay that off. It was very stressful for a young lieutenant. We were pretty young when we went in. I worried about my fi nances for about a year. I had one credit card. My car broke down. I had to max out my credit card to get my car fi xed. I was lucky I didn’t have anyone to support. It was just me. So think of these young people in the military who have fam-ilies.” Pillich said there should be bipartisan support for legislation for veterans. “There is no Republican way or Democratic way to do things. It’s just the right way. It’s not about politics. It’s about getting the mission done. It’s the same ap-proach we should use in the Legislature. About 30 percent of the veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan report they have fi nancial challenges when they come back. They certainly learned how to put the mission fi rst when they were on active

duty. But they didn’t learn how to put to-gether their household budget. They didn’t learn how dangerous it is to use your credit cards, they didn’t learn how interest rates can multiply your debt. So we need to make sure we provide more fi nancial literacy op-portunities for our military, both on active duty and in the guard and reserves.” Eligible veterans who qualify should know about the Veterans’ Bonus, which she introduced in the Legislature in 2009. “We think about 90,000 veterans still qualify, but have not yet applied. We want to make sure we reach out to everyone. This is the last year for veterans of the Iraq war to apply. Time is running out. You might fi ll out your application, but you may need supporting documentation,” she said. “And it might take you some time to get it. So we want everyone to apply as soon as possible. I want everyone to put the word out that this bonus is available.” For more information on the Veterans’ Bonus, call 877-Ohiovet (644-6838), or 419-216-6990.

Applications can also be downloaded on the website “veteransbonus.ohio.gov.” “It doesn’t matter if you’re done with your service, or still on active duty,” she said. Other initiatives she introduced into the Legislature include providing unem-ployment insurance for military spouses. “The spouse works to make ends meet. But when members of the military are trans-ferred, the spouse has to quit. The average spouse loses six to nine months of wages in every transfer. And that can be devastating for a military family. Ohio is only a handful of states that expressly prohibits military spouses from getting compensation,” she said. She would also like to see Ohio recog-nize commercial or professional licenses from other states. “We’ve introduced leg-islation to require that. There are lots of things we can do, very minor laws we can pass, that can have a major difference for military families.”

Charissa Gracyk has the blonde hair and good looks to be in front of a Hollywood movie camera, but that’s not her style.

“Only behind the camera for me,” says Gracyk, 40, the older of Lake girls’ basket-ball coach Jim Gracyk’s two children.

Charissa aspires to make it in the City of Angels – lord knows she’s been trying – as a screenwriter, producer or director – and now she’s getting her shot.

“I admire her perseverance,” Jim says, “She has written some really awesome scripts. You just have to crack the nut one time, come up with something. She’s writ-ten horror fl icks, chick fl icks – she wrote a novel about pirates. She’s done a knock-out job of trying to do it the right way, but I think out there you got to have blood in the game, some relative somewhere, in order to really make things happen. It’s a tough business to crack.”

The Encino, California resident, a graduate of Notre Dame Academy and the University of Toledo’s School of Journalism, won’t dispute that.

“It’s really diffi cult,” Charissa says of her quest for solid footing in the big-time entertainment industry. “It’s diffi cult to write a script and get it to people. It real-ly is all about who you know. You have to build a network and get connections and establish relationships. If you don’t have that, you’re just going to be typing a script and putting it in a drawer.”

After graduating from UT in 1996, Gracyk and her cousin, Gillian Perdeau, moved to Boston in 2002 and stayed there almost six years. Gracyk immersed herself into writing at ultimately met screenwriter Mike Cerrone.

“Mike wrote ‘Me, Myself and Irene’ and works with the Farrelly brothers (Peter and Bobby),” Gracyk says. “We got to meet them. Peter said, ‘If you’re excited about writing, you’re on the wrong coast.’ He put that through to us to move West, and so we did. We moved to Encino in 2002.”

Gracyk says she and Perdeau have been writing screenplays since 1997.

“It started off as a joke,” Gracyk says. “We’re both huge horror movie fans, and bad movie after bad movie was coming out. We thought, ‘We can do better than that.’ We’re self-taught. We sat down and start-ed writing one and fi nished it. I found out about a contest and I submitted ours and we placed fi fth out of about 800 (entries). We thought, ‘Maybe we should be doing this.’”

Gracyk has worked at a number of jobs to help pay the bills since she transplant-ed to Southern California including being dog walker, merchandising for a handbag company, working in retail and in a fl ower shop.

“You name it,” Gracyk says, “I’ve prob-ably done it. Anything to keep a paycheck while I write.”

Gracyk and Perdeau have written a movie “short” entitled “Holy Toledo,” a story about the interaction between 1930s Toledo bootlegger Jack Kennedy Sr. and the Yonnie Licavoli gang. Gracyk is directing the short and soon hopes to turn it into a full-blown Hollywood movie.

Family tiesOne of the characters in the short,

Lake coach’s daughter co-writer

Licavolis, local gangsters featured in ‘Holy Toledo’

William Wallace, is an uncle of Gracyk’s mother, Tina.

“Growing up, our family talked about all these stories about our family and how they were involved with the Kennedys and Licavolis,” Gracyk says. “When we started writing, my grandma (Mary Hoffman) and great aunt (Eleanor Cymbolin) said, ‘This is the stuff you need to be writing about.’ They talked about my great uncle Will. He stored liquor for both sides, the Licavoli gang and for Jack Kennedy. The Licavoli gang found out, so they wanted to teach Will a lesson. Jack and the Licavoli gang were rivals.

“They kidnapped Will’s girlfriend (Kitty) and held her for ransom. We made a short fi lm about all of that.”

The 17-minute short introduces view-ers to prohibition-era Toledo involving the Kennedy and Licavoli gangs. Gracyk says her ultimate goal is to “come to Toledo and fi lm Jack Kennedy’s story for a feature.”

“We have it written,” she says, “It’s a two-hour movie and we plan to come to Toledo and fi lm the entire thing on loca-tion. We need to get the word out and get investors and get people excited about what we’re doing. We wanted do a short and have a premier to let everyone know our next step, and then do a feature about Jack Kennedy and Licavoli and what hap-pened. Kennedy was gunned down in Point Place in 1933.”

Gracyk says her research on Toledo bootleggers and the Kennedy and Licavoli gangs included reading two books by local author Ken Dickson as well as old newspa-per articles.

“I got to speak with Ken, and he’s very well informed about the subject,” Gracyk says. The 17-minute short was shot in Los Angeles and Gracyk says she received as-sistance from fi lm producer Kevin Cooper, who is from Toledo. Raising enough money to produce a full-length feature fi lm on the subject is an ongoing process.

“When we get some ‘talent’ attached, we have a producer out here who is willing to match funds,” Gracyk says. “If we can raise $1 million or a million and a half in Toledo or through other connections, an (L.A.) producer is going to match that.”

Gracyk says she couldn’t be happier with the way “Holy Toledo” has turned out.

“We have such a great crew and a great cast,” she says. “It looks amazing. Keith Shaw is one of our executive producers and he has a lot of experience and connec-tions. We called in a lot of favors, and a lot of people who make a lot of money practi-cally worked for free to help us. We have a composer who composed all the music, and a special effects guy came in and did some amazing stuff.”

“Holy Toledo” will be shown to the public Tues., Jul. 15 at the historic Ohio Theatre, located at 3114 Lagrange St. in the Polish International Village. There is no cost to attend, and any donations will be given to the Ohio Theatre Restoration Fund.

“I’m real excited to fi lm the feature in Toledo,” Gracyk says. “We had a lot of gang stuff going on here, comparable to Al Capone in Chicago. It’s kind of an un-touched subject.”

By Cynthia L. JacobySpecial to The [email protected]

An Oak Harbor councilman Monday defended his role as the fi nance committee chairman and the state of the village fi nanc-es. At the conclusion of the regular village council meeting, Don Douglas responded to an article in the The Press regarding the June 16 meeting. Douglas was absent when a fi nance report was passed out and dis-cussed by his peers that day. They were at times critical of his actions and pondered the downward spiral of village fi nances. He read from a prepared statement Monday. The article reported council discuss-ing village revenues being down about $140,000 at mid-year. councilman Jim Seaman noted that the village continued to overspend available revenue and is poised to end the year in the red again. Douglas said Monday that revenues are actually only down 2 percent overall. He pointed out revenue fl uctuates from month to month as do expenses. And all in all, Douglas maintained, the village’s fi nancial situation “is not as alarming as the article implicated” though he did not offer specifi c fi gures. He also claimed that statements quoted in the article that fi nance committee meet-ings were not held is false. He contended those meetings were held once a month. A meeting focusing on fi nances also is set for the fourth week of July. Otherwise, he added, no special meetings were requested. His peers noted at the June meeting that their requests for separate fi nance committee meetings had been ignored for months. Those requests were reported in earlier articles. Options such as changing collections of the village 1 percent income tax had also been touched on by Douglas earlier in the year, he noted. But, he added, Seaman and councilman Jon Fickert actually put off advancement by suggesting the idea be “kicked down the road” for review. Douglas also took issue with the arti-cle’s referencing the village is $291,000 in the red at this point which Seaman spoke of several times in June. Douglas said his graphs show movement toward a favorable year-end budget balance. Douglas added in 2012 he pointed out that the village needed to resolve its ex-treme budget issues. “I’ve got council’s attention,” he read. “This is a matter we need to address.”

Oak Harbor

Councilman defends his work on fi nance panel

Fixing the problem would begin by stopping knee-jerk reactions to a misunder-stood graph, Douglas said, adding he didn’t utter the words he had a “magic plan” ref-erenced in the story. Those words came from others not him, he said. Douglas then spoke of a Toledo Metropolitan Area Council of Governments meeting he recently attended where one of the keynote speakers talked about small ru-ral governments. The man didn’t want to insult anyone, he told the crowd, but in many rural communities the very people elected to make the decisions have no real idea about the depth of the decisions they are making, Douglas recalled. He said council needed to rely more on the expertise of the staff and administrator involved in the daily operations of the vil-lage. He added that one council person who had previously mentioned “working to-gether for the greater good” had fallen away from that premise. He was talking about councilwoman Donna-Wendt, who was ab-sent Monday. As she rejoined council this year, she talked about the group working more cohesively. At the last meeting, she insisted the mayor put a halt to Douglas’ “one-man show” and make him hold com-mittee meetings. Councilmembers sat silent during the reading. After he fi nished, Fickert was the only council member who offered a rebut-tal to Douglas’ comments as allowed by the rules of order. It was mentioned several times, Fickert said, that things seemed to be improving by recently implemented changes. And that was reported in the article, he added. Still, “Our expenses exceed our rev-enue. I see nothing to show we are not going to be in the same position,” Fickert asserted. He also disagreed that he opted to put off the income tax decision. Previous reports show the two had asked for more

information regarding how the proposed change and how collections would be han-dled by the tax offi ce. “I pursued a different avenue with the parks levy, looked for new revenue. We cannot tax our way out of this,” Fickert told the group. And yes, he did reference a magic plan because “We have been waiting for six months” to see the plan Douglas inferred he had in the works to get the village out of its fi nancial plight. Fickert said, “For three or four years, we had an administrator who spent money like water” and the village is still recover-ing from that. The recent change in administration has ushered in a new partnership with be-tween staff and council, he believed. Newly-appointed administrator Randy Genzman has been working daily with fi -nancial offi cer Debbie Carpenter to scruti-nize purchase requests and projects. He’s also made changes in the refuse contract that could result in a payback to the village. Those kind of innovative measures, Fickert suggested, may provide better fi -nancial footing for the village.

Solicitor’s contract Last month, council tabled the third reading for the two-year solicitor’s contract that had caused heated debate over the last couple of weeks. A motion to bring the leg-islation off the table for the third vote died for a lack of motion. Instead, council members wanted some more changes made to the contract, specifi -cally regarding how requests for legal opin-ions or issues could be submitted to Jim Barney, Kocher & Gillum law fi rm’s repre-sentative. Barney has previously mentioned questions be submitted in writing to him. Barney was not at Monday’s meeting for personal reasons. He was temporarily replaced by John Kocher. Requests made during council meet-ings, by email, by phone, in person or any other type of communication will be ac-ceptable and that will be added to the con-tract language, Kocher said. “We are grateful to be working with you folks,” Kocher said. “We believe in open communication.”

New squad The new squad for Mid-County EMS is up and running, Councilman Douglas re-ported. Others noted the department runs were up in June, numbering 49. Portage Fire District has 15 runs in the same period.

““I’ve got council’s attention. This is a matter we need to

Healthy Water Ohio to focus on state waterwaysBy Larry LimpfNews [email protected]

A recently-formed coalition of or-ganizations, businesses and education-al groups plans to develop a long-range strategy to protect Ohio’s waterways. Healthy Water Ohio intends to conduct a poll to gather input from the public that will guide the coali-tion’s efforts as it prepares a 20 to 30-year management strategy for the state - where users consume more than 11 billion gallons of water each day for personal and business purposes. The coalition held a teleconference Monday to announce the plans that will be headed by a 16-member steering committee that includes representatives from Anheuser-Busch, the Association of Ohio Health Commissioners, Farm Credit Mid America, Lake Erie Shores & Islands Ohio AgriBusiness Association, Ohio Cattlemen’s Association, Ohio Corn Marketing Program, Ohio Dairy Producers Association, Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, Ohio Federation of Soil and Water Conservation District, Ohio League of Conservation Voters, The Ohio State University, Ohio Soybean Council, Scotts Miracle- Gro, The Nature Conservancy and the Village of Ottawa. The data received through the poll will be implemented into a year-long study the coalition will undertake to examine issues such as water quality, identifi cation of infl uences on water re-sources and economic and environmen-tal opportunities. The coalition plans to announce its fi ndings next summer. Scott Corbitt, director of state af-fairs for the Columbus brewery of Anheuser-Busch Co., said the brewery is one of the largest users of water in the city and the company has made water conservation a priority. Steve Hirsch, president of the Ohio Farm Bureau, said an affordable supply of clean water is critical if the state is to continue as a top agricultural producer. He estimated the farm econ-omy at about $10.1 billion. “Over the years we have dealt with challenges to our water resources, but we’ve taken a piecemeal approach without a broader goal,” he said. Larry Fletcher, executive direc-tor of Lake Erie Shores & Islands, said tourism, fi shing and boating account for more than $1 billion being spent annually in the Lake Erie region. About 30 organizations are par-ticipating in the initiative so far with additional groups expected to become involved. They will operate in working groups to focus on specifi c issues and provide input to the committee.

B-C-S fi lls vacancies To fi ll vacancies in the administra-tion, the Benton-Carroll-Salem school board has tapped two people from the Fremont City School District. The board last week agreed to hire Laramie Spurlock as assistant princi-pal at Oak Harbor Middle School. Spurlock was the assistant prin-cipal at Fremont Middle School. He will assume his duties in Oak Harbor in August. He is replacing Donald Christie, who has taken a position with the Perrysburg City School District. Cheryl Schell will take the helm as principal at Oak Harbor High School, replacing Keith Thorbahn, who was promoted to the district’s director of administrative services. Schell had worked in the Fremont district for 25 years, most recently as assistant principal at the high school. Guy Parmigian, B-C-S superinten-dent, said Schell also has experience as a teacher. “Mrs. Schell is very excited about her new leadership role and will bring a wealth of student-centered leadership experience to our high school,” he said.

Woodmore vacancy Kevin Slates has submitted his res-ignation as treasurer of the Woodmore Local School District. The school board accepted his resignation during a spe-cial meeting. The board rescheduled its regular monthly meeting to July 21 at 6:30 p.m. at Woodmore High School.

What started out in his bedroom last year selling computers on eBay has now turned into a full time business for Michael Oberdick, a 2007 Eastwood graduate and owner of The Apple Outlet in Bowling Green.

The store focuses on pre-owned Apple products. Unlike other buy-sell stores, Oberdick doesn’t purchase devices and inventory from people who bring them in off the street. Instead, he purchases his inventory from Apple-Certified ven-dors who get the devices from companies which had leased them and were looking to upgrade or purchase new.

Before selling his inventory, Oberdick checks every computer to be sure it is operating correctly and will install, in some cases, the newest available software. He carries Apple desktops, laptops, tablets and iPhones and accessories. He recently was approved to set up and activate new phones in or out of contract. He also repairs other brands and iPhones.

The Apple Outlet is located at 1236 West Wooster St. Hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and nights and weekends by appointments. Call 419- 308-5777 or go to www.AppleOutletBG.com.

The right track? To the editor: For at least three nights, there have been fi reworks going off in Walbridge until after 1 a.m. I thought there was a law against noise after 10 p.m. I also thought there was a law against having cer-tain types of fi reworks. Apparently, the police offi cers do not check out where these are coming from and do not care about it. I don’t know how many people can sleep through this loud noise, but my family cannot sleep until they stop. We can put up with them on the 4th of July, but certainly not before and after that date. Also, I read in the paper that Walbridge is not spraying for mosquitoes this year due to the cost of repaving Union Street which, of course, is overdue to be repaired. I would think they could still spray for mosquitoes since they have become a serious problem. They have sprayed in Walbridge for many years and it was never a problem before, and other things still got done. As far as priorities go in this town, the previous mayor focused on the ball fi eld and Railway Park, to get drainage from standing water, and the swimming pool and curbs in town. We have a new mayor who does not seem to accomplish any more than the last one. Whenever you ask him about taking care of something like the alleys with the potholes in them, it is not in the budget. The council members don’t seem to earn their paychecks either. I gave up going to the meetings because it was a waste of my time. If they want to have people move to Walbridge and generate some more tax money for the town, they need to address

some of these ongoing problems here. Other people in this town would agree with me but don’t want to say anything. This is not the “town on the right track,” as it should be.Ernie FrohlichWalbridge Editor’s note: Mayor Ed Kolanko told The Press he checked police dispatching records for the July 4th weekend and found no complaint calls for noise and fi reworks.

Disappointing To the editor: The Democratic Party’s role in labeling or banning Genetically Modifi ed Organisms has become extremely disappointing and angering. Many, including President Obama, promised to either ban or label products that use genetically engineered ingredients. Hillary Clinton recently voiced her support for genetically modifi ed organisms at a bio-tech convention. The only benefi t coming from this is going toward corporate wallets. It was a good day for Monsanto. Unfortunately for the rest of Americans, we never gained the right to know what is in our food. When 60 or so other countries, both industrialized and developing, have heavy restrictions or outright bans on GMOs, it doesn’t seem like it should be too much to ask for the simple right to know what we are eating, whether it is safe or not.

Given the circumstances, I fi nd it im-possible to believe that such things do not cause cancer and mutations in humans. Surveys taken by the Non-GMO Project consistently prove that most Americans want GMO labeling and our government is selfi shly failing to tend to our needs. If Democrats choose to sell out and push aside their promises, I will be more than happy to give my vote to the Green Party.Amelia BockeyWalbridge Editor’s note: The letter is referring to a vote in the U.S. Senate on an amendment offered by Bernie Sanders (I – Vermont) to let states require labels on food or bever-ages made with genetically modifi ed ingre-dients. The amendment was defeated.

A customer’s choice To the editor: Recently, I ate at a res-taurant and at the bottom of the bill, it was printed what amount a 20 percent tip would be and what a 15 percent tip would be. I know other restaurants are doing this also. I’m sure it is a good idea because some customers are not certain how much to tip. I paid my bill with two $50 bills and when I received my change from the wait-ress, I discovered that she had taken a 20 percent tip. That is not legal; that is steal-ing. It is up to me to decide how much of my money I will tip – poorly, medium or

very generously. That waitress was excellent and helped us a lot. When she stole the tip, she cheated herself out of a dollar or two extra that I would have given her. I don’t think I will return to that res-taurant, but if I do, I will have plenty of smaller bills so I can pay my bill exactly and leave the tip I choose to leave.Louis AgostonToledo

Build branch instead This is in regards to the Oregon Library expansion. Here is a library that cost $1.3 million to build in 1989. This year, there is going to be an expansion added at a cost of $2.5 million. The inconvenience of closing this branch for a year is really not neces-sary. Moving it to a temporary location at the old Wynn Elementary school does not seem like a wise use of tax dollars. Why not look at adding another branch? At the rate Oregon is growing it would be very beneifi cial. The Locke Library in East Toledo cost $1.9 million in 2007. I'm sure that it would not cost much more than the planned ex-pansion to build another new one.Paul J. Gibbs Sr.East Toledo

Correction In the June 30 edition of The Press, the article “Oregon Ok’s more commercial zoning on Navarre” should have said that Oregon Council also approved the appoint-ment of Mark Mullins as the city’s new as-sistant fi re chief. The Press regrets the error.

Have you ever felt like giving up? Are there situations you have felt are too diffi -cult, too stressful, too hard, too exhausting, or too frustrating to continue? Do you seek out the path of least resistance? The strategy of giving up is learned as a young child. We fi rst utilized it when fac-ing situations we didn’t want to deal with or felt we couldn’t handle. We added, “I can’t do it,” to our conditioned responses which in turn shaped our attitude. After giving up, someone may have at-tempted to help you feel better by saying, “It’s OK, at least you tried.” Unfortunately, their comment served to reinforce giving up as a legitimate option when facing challeng-es. This did you a tremendous disservice. The only time you fail is when you give up. Therefore, learning to give up is learn-ing to fail. This conditioning robed you of many successes that could have been yours if you had just kept going. Attitude is everything. Your actions follow your beliefs. If you don’t believe you can, you won’t. Conversely, if you be-lieve you can, you will. Utilize this con-nection by cultivating a conviction that it’s not over so long as you keep moving ahead one step at a time. The only direction is forward. When facing adversity, challenges, problems, or obstacles, the action you take next is what matters. In order to keep going, you must abandon the old habits you learned as a kid. Now you know better. Every problem has a solution and there is a way to conquer each obstacle. Regardless of what you may face, it’s not over as long as you are ready and willing to take the next step. If you get knocked down, get back up. If you are overwhelmed, take smaller steps. If you don’t know what to do next, study successful examples of what

Attitude is everything when you’re meeting challenges

other people have done who have been in the same predicament. Don’t speak poorly to yourself. Your mind believes whatever you tell it. Putting yourself down, telling yourself that some-thing is impossible, or proclaiming you can’t handle something virtually guaran-tees an unsuccessful outcome. Use the power of self-talk to enhance your success. The phrases you should be using include, “I can do this,” “I will fi nd a solution,” “There is an answer and I will fi nd it,” and “I am willing to do whatever it takes to pull myself out of this.” Another factor you will be exposed to is advice from other people. Unfortunately, many people are negative. They offer a va-riety reasons why you can’t or shouldn’t succeed. There are also jealous people who don’t want you to succeed. And then there are those individuals who may be well inten-tioned but lack the expertise or experience necessary to offer any productive advice. Ignore the naysayers. It’s common to experience pressure to follow their advice. Don’t argue with them or try to justify your position. Thank them for their concern and then follow the path that best accom-modates your needs. Those who have already successfully dealt with the situation you are facing are the ones in the best position to provide ef-fective guidance. Their experience con-tains invaluable lessons you can directly benefi t from.

History is fi lled with countless exam-ples of people who gave up when they were just around the corner from success. It’s diffi cult to accurately ascertain how close you are to success. So you must always keep going. How much or how little time is re-quired is irrelevant. In sports, athletes often have come from behind to achieve victory in the last seconds. The same prin-ciple applies to you also. It’s not over as long as you refuse to give up.

Desired Location for Oregon Senior Center

Oregon voters passed a senior ser-vices levy in November which will gener-ate $250,000 a year. The city is fl ush with more than $10 million in cash reserves. So, where’s the new senior center? That’s what Citizens for an Oregon Senior Center want to know. Marge Ramirez, on behalf of the group, sent a let-ter to Mayor Mike Seferian and city council requesting a public meeting so citizens can voice their opinions on location and ser-vices. The letter, sent May 12, requested that meeting be held in late May. It’s July and still no meeting, but it’s not because city council has forgotten its seniors. The issue is complicated. The citizens committee suggests a number of options for a new center including constructing one comparable to the 22,000 square-foot Sylvania Senior Center, one with enough room to offer social activities such as danc-ing, exercise classes, computer lessons and other hobbyist pursuits. That may be an overreach. Nearly 68,000 people live in the City of Sylvania and Sylvania Township, the two entities the senior center serves. Oregon’s popula-tion is about 19,500 with 3,500 age 65 and older. It’s clear, however, something needs to be done. Councilman Dennis Walendzak, a member of the Senior Services Advisory Group studying the issue, says city offi cials have discussed expanding the James “Wes” Hancock Senior Center for almost 15 years. Now, given the infl ux of new funds, he says, “The time is right to make this deci-sion.” The advisory group consists of city ad-ministrator Mike Beazley, councilman Terry Reeves, senior center director Paula Benton and representatives from ProMedica Bay Park Hospital, Mercy St, Charles Hospital, the YMCA and the Area Offi ce on Aging. The group’s goal is to help the com-munity determine the best way to offer se-nior services cost-effectively. Just because the city has money to build a Taj Mahal doesn’t mean it should. Beazley said gov-ernment isn’t always the best landowner.

Maintenance and operating costs tend to escalate over time. “It might be that the smartest and best way is for the city to become a tenant in a facility that already exists in the city. You can try things and change them over time. Some thing that may be essential in 2014 may not be as much in demand in 2025,” he said. At the risk of oversimplifi cation, a number of women in The Greatest Generation don’t drive or use comput-ers, whereas nearly all Baby Boomers do. Transportation and computer classes may be important today, but in a few years not so much. Socialization activities such as dancing and card playing can change with each generation. Today’s younger genera-tion does much of its socialization through electronic devices. This is not to say more space isn’t needed for meals, recreational or socializa-tion programs. Just that, that space should

be determined by needs, not by a desire to keep up with Sylvania. The more cost-effective option may be to offer senior services in multiple loca-tions. For example, water aerobics at the Y. Why include a pool in a new senior center and siphon off members from a commu-nity asset? Currently, the city sponsors the Golden Eagle Card, which provides seniors with discounts for aerobics and cardio classes. An estimated 600 Oregon seniors belong to the Y, with 59 holding Golden Eagle cards. Such an approach makes a community asset stronger and gives the city fl exibility to change programming to meet the needs of seniors now and in the future. Can this work with other programming partners, say Oregon City Schools, for ex-ample? Beazley calls this approach a “senior center without walls.” Delivering services is one of two issues

the advisory committee is exploring. The other is whether to expand the current se-nior center located in the northeast corner of the city, or build a new center, or lease existing space. The Citizens for an Oregon Senior Center has compiled a list of possible lo-cations in lieu of expanding the current center. They include: leasing space at the old Wynn School, the YMCA, the vacant Pharm store at Starr and Wheeling, or va-cant FoodTown on Navarre; or constructing a new building at the municipal complex or at the corner of Isaac Streets and Dustin. They would like to see open meetings to discuss the pros and cons of these sites. Walendzak adds one more—The Educational Service Center of Lake Erie West, home to the Challenger Learning Center, at the corner of Seaman and Wynn. Walendzak said classrooms, a gym and a lunch area are available for lease. Which site would best serve a city that encompasses 28 square miles? Some are closer to the population center of the city while some are closer to the geographic center. The advisory group is also grap-pling with this issue. Enough already, the seven members of Citizens for an Oregon Senior Center told me at a meeting last month. This issue has been discussed for 15 years, the voters have spoken to increase services and the city has the funds to build. Let’s get on with the public meetings to determine a location. This seemingly slow pace is a “fair criticism of government,” Beazley said. “But, it’s important to get it right. Getting it right is better than getting it fast.” Look for public meetings in August.

Most kids handle their enthusiasm for sports pretty well. They play hard, get ex-cited over wins and sad about losses, but usually just have a good time, enjoying some exercise and healthy competition. Now if only all that were true for their parents. We’ve likely all seen reports of fi ghts during little league games, soccer referees being attacked and coaches facing verbal abuse or worse – violent reactions not from the kids, but from the parents. While it’s understandable that parents want their children to do well and be treat-ed fairly, some parents have made their child’s sports so important that their emo-tions override their judgment and they end up reacting violently to what happened on the playing fi eld. The source of such emotions aren’t diffi cult to understand. If a child isn’t per-forming up to parental expectations, the parent may feel frustrated. Such feelings can be complicated by the parent’s project-ing his or her own athletic dreams and fan-tasies onto the child. When that happens, it’s often a sign that sports are playing too important a role in family life. A good fi rst question to ask is whether the family’s life revolves around the chil-dren’s sports. Are the kids being “pushed,” not just to play sports, but to train harder and to excel, maybe at the expense of school work or other activities? Do you fi nd that you have mood swings associated with your kids’ success or failures in sports, and that your children are rewarded, or teased, mocked and criti-cized, depending on how well they per-formed? Do you blame the coaches if your child’s team loses and make fun of children who don’t play at your child’s level? If the answer is yes to some or all of these questions, there’s a good chance that you’re making sports too important a part of your family’s life. And if you have had thoughts about having reacting violently to other parents, coaches, or referees when things have gone poorly, it’s a clear indica-tion that help is needed. Try talking to a professional counselor specializing in family counseling. He or she can help you readjust your perspective on your expectations and your children’s sports, and can help reestablish a healthy emotional balance between sports and your parenting style.

Dangerous mix: kids’ sports and parents

By Tammy WalroPress Staff [email protected]

Like many veterans, Thelma Brown doesn’t like to talk too much about her wartime service. At 93, she prefers to live in the present, enjoying time with her husband, family and friends. However, on July 17, Thelma will pull out her photo album and share her memories and experiences as a young WWII nurse as a guest of the Auxiliary at Christ Dunberger American Legion Post #537, 4926 Pickle Rd., Oregon (corner of Wynn and Pickle Roads). The public is invited to the presentation, which will begin at 1 p.m. and will include time for questions and answers. The longtime Walbridge resident who now lives in Rossford, was born in Indiana as Thelma Horner. Her father, a WWI veteran died when she was just 6. Her mother, unable to support her children after her husband died, placed them for care with the state. As a resident of a state-run home for children, Thelma’s college tuition at Ball State University was paid for – though she worked to pay for books and expenses. She studied nursing, along with education, home economics and other disciplines. As she prepared to graduate in the spring of 1944, she was compelled by the Army’s public calls for nurses to join up. “They were begging for nurses to come in,” Thelma said. “They were even threatening to draft, but they never had to because enough girls signed up. “I guess in part because my dad was a veteran, and also because I had been on my own for some time, I decided I would go ahead and join the Army Nurse Corps,” she said. She signed up through the Red Cross, but had to pass her state nursing boards before she could offi cially join the service. “I got the paperwork that I’d passed the state boards in December 1944, and not long after, I got a letter from the government saying I was selected to go into the service and then got my orders,” she said. Her decision drew mixed reactions from her family. “My mother was not very happy, but she knew this was what I wanted to do, so she respected my wishes,” she said. On Feb. 8, 1945, Thelma reported to Fort Knox in Kentucky for basic training. “Though a number of girls from my graduating class joined the service, I didn’t really know anyone at Fort Knox,” she said. “I was just 22 – I was a little nervous but I knew the Army would take care of me.” After six weeks of basic training, she was assigned to Wakeman General Hospital, at Camp Atterbury, Indiana, which during World War II was the Army’s largest Convalescent Hospital. “It was a big facility – at times, there were over 10,000 patients there,” she said. “The wards had 70 to 90 patients on them. “When I fi rst arrived, there weren’t a lot of nurses – Red Cross nurse aides helped out with the nursing care – but within two

WWII nurse recalls service as hard but rewarding

or three months, more nurses came in,” Thelma said. One of her assignments was working in the receiving ward where patients were evaluated and received testing before being sent off to the proper hospital ward for treatment. “We’d often have 70 or so patients in there who came from the Pacifi c, Italy, England, France, Africa – from all over – unlike in WWI, where they didn’t have the transportation and facilities to bring so many injured back so quickly,” she said. “We also had to serve a prisoner of war ward – there was a German prisoner of war camp there,” she said. “Fortunately, many of them spoke English, but they also had interpreters. “Throughout my 14 months of service, I worked in quite a few wards – neurosurgery, plastic surgery, a lot of burn cases – a lot of things we didn’t train for in the hospitals at home because we just didn’t see those kinds of injuries,” she said. “Initially, I felt under-prepared. I knew the basics of nursing, but you had all these boys – some of them were in pretty bad shape physically, mentally and emotionally. “Lots of times, more than anything, they just wanted to talk,” she said. “They were young, injured, scared and homesick. I think, like most veterans, they felt comfortable talking about their experiences with someone else in the service.” Despite the magnitude and gravity of the assignment, she enjoyed the work. “In a way, it was very diffi cult, but on the other

hand, it was very rewarding,” she said. “I worked with a lot of young men who had facial and jaw injuries, which made it diffi cult for them to eat and drink,” she said. “At the time, they were just starting to do plastic surgery to help patients with shrapnel and the other kinds of wounds the soldiers were sustaining. “I found it so interesting \that they were pioneering these new techniques so they could help get them back to civilian life,” she said. “There was one patient I took care of – who over time became a friend. He had a facial injury so severe that prevented him from drinking out of a cup for fi ve years.” Another patient, who was at the hospital for treatment of a leg injury sustained while serving with the 27th Infantry Division on the Pacifi c island of Saipan, also became a favorite – so much so she eventually married the handsome young Stanley Nowak and followed him back to his hometown of Toledo after the war ended. The couple settled down and raised a family, and Thelma continued her nursing career, working at St. Charles Hospital from 1956 through 1985. Stanley passed away in 1983 and Thelma and remarried to Ken Brown. Over the years, Thelma had kept in touch with and event gotten together with former patients from Wakeman General Hospital, though they’ve recently lost touch. “Most of them are probably gone now,” she said.

nspirational essage of the eek: Don’t Put Your Trust in Things of this World

Young children seem to have the utmost trust in their

parents. For instance, they know that whenever they are

not feeling well, their parents are there to comfort them

and do whatever is necessary to make them better. A

parent's love is special, and it seems that there is nothing

that they would not do for their children. As adults, we

should remember that all things of this world are

temporary and that there is nothing we can truly depend

on or be absolutely sure of.A loved one passing away, or

finances being low, or a serious illness could turn our

world upside down in an instant. However, we should

take heart; there is good news: we are God's children,

and His love for us is even greater than that of our

parents'. And although it takes enormous courage to put

our complete trust in God, we must believe that He wants

only what is good for us. What is required of us is to see

God's work in everything we do, and develop perfect

trust to accept the trials of his life The first step in

increasing our trust in God is to thank Him daily for His

many blessings and to go to Him with our anxieties.

.

Trustin the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your ownunderstanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, andHe will make your paths straight. N.I.V. Proverbs 3:5-6

The 3rd Annual Pemberville Pancreatic Cancer Research Walk/Run will be held Sunday, Aug. 17. The Kohring family began the walk in 2011 in memory of Robert Kohring, Sr. who died June 26, 2010, only 54 days after his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Kohring, who was born, raised and died in Pemberville, was an avid walker, so his family thought it was fi tting to have the walk in his home town, his daughter, Lori (Kohring) Laake said. “We are committed to helping fi nd an early detection and cure for this 4th leading cause of cancer deaths,” she said. “One hundred percent of the donations for this event will go to pancreatic cancer re-search through the Lustgarten Foundation. Cablevision Corp. involvement and sup-port of the foundation makes this pos-sible.” (Visit www.lustgarten.org for more information.) Registration will begin at noon at the Pemberville Freedom Township Fire Station, 104 E. Front St. The three-mile walk/run will commence at 1 p.m. The event will also include a balloon launch, music, raffl es and special recognition of survivors and a remembrance for those who lost their lives to the disease. Pre-registration is available online at www.tiny.url/PemPCRWalk2014. Call 419-352-0151 or 937-212-8270 for more information.

Cystic fi brosis benefi t The 3rd Annual Lorin Grimes Golf Outing to benefi t the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will take place Sunday, Aug. 3 at Tanglewood Golf Course, 9802 Dowling Rd., Perrysburg. Registration will begin at 7 a.m. and scramble will begin with a shotgun start at 8 a.m. The cost is $55 per person or $220 for a four-person team which includes 18 holes of golf and golf cart, steak dinner and door prizes. A cash bar will be available. Cystic fi brosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and adults in the U.S. A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusu-ally thick, sticky mucous that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening infec-tions and obstructs the pancreas and stops natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food. For more information about register-ing, becoming a hole sponsor or making a donation, contact Jeremy Grimes at 419-704-5798.

St. Charles project progressing The Behavioral Health Institute proj-ect at Mercy St. Charles Hospital is mov-ing forward rapidly, according to Sarah Bednarski, Public Relations & Internal

Communications Manager for Catholic Health Partners Northern Market/Mercy Toledo. The site work has been completed, and in June, the construction crew began to set precast wall sections in place. The outer shell of the building will be completed, and then the interior work will begin later this summer. The new two-story building, which will connect to the main hospital, will in-clude adult, geriatric and dual diagnoses units, comprising 90 beds. Additionally, the 62,000-square-foot institute will of-fer a partial hospitalization program. Mercy is exploring partnership opportuni-ties with other providers for additional ser-vices, Bednarski added.

ProMedica Photo Exhibit “ProMedica: Revealing Hunger,” a photo exhibit featuring images by nine Toledo-area residents facing hunger, was the topic of a documentary that aired May 29 on WGTE public television. The exhibit of 27 photos is part of ProMedica’s “Come to the Table” initiative to address hunger as a health issue both lo-cally and nationally. “ProMedica: Revealing Hunger” is touring ProMedica hospitals and other venues in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan through early 2015. For more information about ProMedica’s collaborative anti-hunger ini-tiative, “Come to the Table,” visit promedi-ca.org/cometothetablesummit.

The Navarre Park tennis courts are getting a workout this summer, thanks to Bobby Johnson and the Navarre Park Tennis Association.

Johnson, 62, and members of The Fountain Seventh Day Adventist Church in East Toledo helped form the NPTA last year. The NPTA’s home courts are at Navarre Park.

“We created the association in order to promote tennis in the community,” said Johnson, who works in health information technology. “What we wanted to do is cre-ate a tennis club that would support the community. We went to the United States Tennis Association and we were granted a community tennis association grant.

“The USTA gave us the rights to be a community association. That means we are part of a community and our mission is to provide tennis recreation and educational mentoring for the community. This is one of their membership levels.”

The community tennis association grant is designed to support youth tennis, develop training programs and help build new courts or repair existing ones. The USTA’s Midwest section granted funds to the NPTA in 2013, and Johnson was cer-tifi ed as a youth tennis instructor by the Professional Tennis Register organization.

“I went through some some training and testing,” Johnson said. “I love tennis, that’s the No. 1 thing. Part of it is I love the community here in East Toledo. I don’t reside here, but The Fountain Seventh Day Adventist Church helps sponsor (the NPTA) in East Toledo.”

The NPTA held two tennis sessions for youths last summer, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and had about 30 participants. Youths do not have to live in East Toledo to participate. The NPTA has about 20 kids playing at Navarre Park this summer.

Johnson is the instructor, with occa-sional help from Larry Michaels, who re-sides on the East Side.

“He’s been involved in tennis for a long time,” Johnson said.

This year’s summer sessions for the 10-and-under youths runs from 5:30-6:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 5:30-6:30 on Wednesdays and Thursdays for ages 11-17.

“This year we started a junior team for ages 11-17,” Johnson said. “We have six members, and they will be competing. They are in that age group that is either learning tennis or has played some tennis. We’re hoping to have some tournaments for the 10-and-under group as well. They will try to play it here on July 26. We’ll also ask

Navarre Park group keep courts busy

different clubs to come in.“I’m excited about the junior group. A

couple girls haven’t played much tennis, but do they have talent. I’m looking for the next Venus and Serena (Williams). They are strong and fast, and I’m excited about them.”

The NPTA also has an adult (18 and over) league, the Navarre Park Tennis Club, which practices on Sunday at 4 p.m. and every Wednesday at 6 p.m. The club played matches against Sylvania Country Club last Monday and competes in the USTA Midwest Women’s 3.0 League.

“This is the second year we’ve played,” Johnson said. “It’s a really nice fellowship. We meet and have a game and a social time. It’s kind of a social network scenario. We have 15 women, and the season runs from May through July 28.”

The adult players compete in fi rst and second singles and fi rst, second, and third doubles.

“I pair them up, and these are all fi rst- and second-year players,” Johnson said. “We’re playing a level above (their rating level), and that’s on purpose.”

Johnson said he would like to see the four Navarre Park courts get a much-need-

ed makeover.“We need fi ve courts,” he said, “and

these are in pretty bad shape. They’re play-able, but we’ve been fi ghting with the City for two years to get the courts done. Last year we paid to get them done. This year the City promised to get them done, but they patch worked it and didn’t do a good job of that. We are contemplating building some new ones or getting these resurfaced.

“We don’t have a (new) site yet. We are looking at this site to build a new one and add another court. We really would like six or eight courts, and that would mean another location. This side of town really needs more than one (facility). Waite High School uses these courts, and there are a lot of tennis players on this side of town. They’ve been playing with substandard courts for a long time.”

Johnson brought the issue up to Mayor D. Michael Collins when the East Toledo Family Center hosted a town hall meeting two weeks ago, which drew 150 people, including residents, city offi cials and com-munity leaders.

Johnson was told by city offi cials that the cost to resurface the four Navarre Park courts would cost about $30,000.

A.J. Achter selectedHessman, Carrera to play in Triple A all-star showcase

Toledo Mud Hens third baseman Mike Hessman and outfi elder Ezequiel Carrera were named to the Triple-A All-Star game, the International League announced Wednesday.

Oregon native A.J. Achter (Clay/Michigan State) was also named to the International League roster. He was elected to represent the Rochester Red Wings as one of two relief pitchers in the All-Star Game.

Achter was in Toledo in early May. Achter gave up one hit and no runs in three innings against the Mud Hens, who won that game 7-0 and swept the four-game series from the Red Wings.

“I had already had some pretty good memories on that fi eld,’ Achter told Press contributing sportswrit-er Mark Griffi n. “The day I pitched against the Hens, it was Mother’s Day with my mom and both grandmoth-ers in the stands, plus 40 other family members and friends in the stands. It was pretty special and something I’ll never forget.”

Achter remembers the Fifth Third Field public address announcer’s intro for Achter.

“They announced, ‘Now pitch-ing for Rochester, from Oregon, Ohio, A.J. Achter,” he recalled. “There were a lot of nerves, but once it came time to throw the ball, it was like any other game.”

This marks the fourth All-Star se-lection for Hessman, tying a record held by Lee Stevens, Joe Thurston, and Todd Williams. Hessman hit .258 with 15 home runs and 33 RBI at the time of his selection, and Monday he became in In-ternational League's all-time home run hitter with 259 blasts. His 15 home runs this season are tied for second in the In-ternational League. He was selected to the All-Star game in 2006-07 with To-ledo and in 2012 with Oklahoma City.

Carrera is 10th in the International League with a .307 batting average, while also hitting four home runs and 27 RBI. His 33 stolen bases lead the league 13, at the time of the selection. Hessman will start the game at third base, while Carrera will start at one of the three outfi eld positions..

The contest between the Inter-national League and the Pacifi c Coast League, which will be held at Durham Bulls Athletic Park, will take place on July 16 in Durham, N.C. The contest will be broadcast on MLB Network and 1230 WCWA.

For many area residents, going to Fremont Speedway on a Saturday night was the fun thing to do. That tradition has been handed down from generation to gen-eration.

The Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame has inducted its sixth class. And to add to the special nature of the event, for the fi rst time ever, some hall of famers took place in an actual racing event.

Besides 11 individuals and a business being inducted into the Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame – the second class to be picked by the membership of the Fremont Speedway Historical Club – there are 23 drivers who competed in a complete night of racing in 305 sprints. The Legends Race had drivers who represented thousands of feature wins and many, many track and se-ries championships. And if you think it’s an exhibition race you were very wrong. The legends drivers competed in heats and a feature that paid $1,000 to win.

“The Hall of Fame induction is always very, very special and very emotional. So many people have given so much over the last 63 years to make Fremont Speedway what it is today and we are so proud to be able to honor them every year with in-duction into the hall of fame.,” said Rich Farmer, Fremont Speedway Promoter and a trustee of the Fremont Speedway Historical Club.

In order to be eligible for the Legends Race, the drivers had to be at least 50 years of age or older and have not competed in a sprint car in last two years.

Here are the drivers who participated in the Legends Race: Kenny Clark Jr.; Mark Keegan (Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame inductee); Eric Rankin (Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame inductee); Rodney Duncan; Jim Linder (Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame inductee); Clay Keim (Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame inductee); Bobby Distel; Kenny Jacobs (National Sprint Car Hall of Fame inductee); Larry Helms; George Dussel; Kelly Kinser; Jerry Nemire; Brian Neeb; Charlie Fisher; Rick Ferkel (National Sprint Car Hall of Fame induct-ee); Al Liskai (Fremont Speedway Hall of

Baumann Auto, Gibsonburg family among inductees

Fame inductee); Gary Griffi th (Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame inductee); Joe Keegan; Ed Haudenschild; Charlie Swartz; Rick Daugherty; Lee Potter and Jimmy Leaser.

The Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame Class of 2014 includes fi ve drivers, two rac-ing mechanics, a family of car owners/me-chanics; and two special service recipients.

The list of drivers includes L.J. Connors, Clay Keim, Eric Rankine, Todd Vance and Jim Ward. The racing mechan-ics/builders include engine builder/driv-er Gary Griffi th and the Van Ness family (Dad, Harold Van Ness Sr. and sons Harold Jr. (Jim) “Hap” Van Ness and Norm Van Ness) Going in under the car owners cate-gory will be the duo of Bob Leaser and Joe Wright and Harold Kemenah. The special service inductees include Ken Kiser and the Baumann Auto Group.

Here’s a look at the mechanics/build-ers hall of fame inductees:

The Van Ness family The Van Ness family of Gibsonburg (Dad, Harold Van Ness Sr. and sons Harold Jr. (Jim) “Hap” Van Ness and Norm Van Ness) owned, built and maintained race cars from 1956 through 1975. Just some of the drivers who piloted the famous No. 35 included hall of famer “Irish” Jim McCune, hall of fam-er Jim “Smiley” Roepke, hall of famers Al, Dick and Steve Liskai, Bill Cicanese, Jerry Nemire, Dick Holcomb and hall of famer Daryl Harrison to name a few. The Van Ness race cars won features all over the region. Most of the Van Ness family race cars were built by the dad and sons before a car built in Cleveland was purchased from hall of famer Jim Ford in 1967.

Gary Griffi th. Gary began working on engines with his father, hall of fame member Earl Griffi th when he was a teenager. He con-tinued to work on engines with his dad until 1978 when Earl retired. Gary also worked at Century Die Company. Gary took over Griff’s Engines in 1978, and the company contin-ues to do just that today. Gary has worked with some of the best owners and drivers in the country over the years including hall of famers Rick Ferkel, Johnny Beaber, Jack Hewitt, Tim Sabo, George Fosco, Wayne Maffett Sr., Roy Sheets and Harry Kresser and others like Dick Sabo, Frank Pavia, Paul and Tom Kistler, Russ Adkins, Rusty McClure, Scott Kraylek, Ken Meggitt, Joe

Conroy, Ronnie Beal and many others. Not only did Gary build championship engines, but he accomplished great things behind the wheel of race cars, winning a sprint car championship at Buckeye Speedway and the MSA Super Modifi ed championship.

Here’s a look at the special service hall of fame inductees:

Ken Kiser. Ken has been associated with Fremont Speedway in some way or another nearly since the track’s inception in 1951.

Mike Blazevich was in a good mood on a Tuesday evening, for three reasons.

First, he got to play golf with his girl-friend at Maumee Bay. Second, it’s a beauti-ful night. Third, he shot in the 80s.

Not bad for a 20-year-old whose sport of choice is college football. The Cardinal Stritch grad, now a 6-foot, 195-pound sophomore free safety at the University of Toledo, has been working his way up the depth chart on defense after the Rockets redshirted him in 2012.

Blazevich didn’t see any playing time last year as a redshirt freshman for UT, which went 7-5 and 5-3 in the Mid-American Conference, but he’s optimistic heading into the 2014 season. He chuckled when he was asked how often people ask him if he’s going to see the fi eld this season.

“When I’m home,” Blazevich said, “I’ll bet I get asked that question by three or four people a week if I see people I know. Everyone asks me that question. I have the same answer every single time. I’m work-ing towards (playing) and it’s a lot harder than people think. I’m making big strides,

Blazevich prepares for another season as Rocketwhere I can see myself being on the fi eld.”

Blazevich, a fi nance major who has gained 20 pounds since his playing days at Stritch, has a 3.4 GPA but isn’t taking any summer courses at UT. Instead, he’s getting in some hours as a detailer at a local car dealership.

He said he and his teammates worked out fi ve times a week for three weeks this spring/summer before an off week this past week. Another three weeks of conditioning begins next week and ends around Aug. 4.

The Rockets open the season Aug. 30 against New Hampshire at the Glass Bowl.

Blazevich’s position coach, John Heacock, is also the Rockets’ fi rst-year de-fensive coordinator. Blazevich is listed No. 3 on the depth chart at safety on a defense that returns one starting safety, both line-backers and all of its cornerbacks.

“We’re just losing a defensive end and one safety (from last year),” Blazevich said. “We have a new defensive coordinator and I feel like the team’s more defensive mind-ed this year. It is a similar game plan to last year.”

Blazevich said Heacock has been building up his confi dence since joining the program as a fi rst-year assistant.

“I have to work my way up,” Blazevich

said. “He says since he’s been here, I’ve made that progression where I could possi-bly play if there’s an injury. He says I could be fl uid with the defense and be fi ne.”

Blazevich said he played three quar-ters in the Rockets’ spring game in April and garnered “six or seven tackles.”

“I felt pretty comfortable out there,” he said. “The speed doesn’t overwhelm me anymore. After two years, it’s normal. I’m used to it. In my mind, I’m really going to be one or two (on the depth chart) this year. I feel I have a chance of playing, just be-cause of the way I’ve progressed this past year and I feel I’m good for those roles.”

If he doesn’t see time on defense, Blazevich said he will be more than happy to earn a role on the Rockets’ special teams units. He hasn’t played special teams since high school.

“It’s just really detailed (in college),” Blazevich said. “In high school you just run straight. In college everyone has a specifi c role. My role this year would be as a con-tain player. I would be the guy who would be going down the fi eld and laying back with the kicker, laying the edge. I think that would be a really good role for me.”

Blazevich is the son of Mike and Stephanie Blazevich.

Everything about Coach Don “Chopper” Schmeltz’ Pemberville Freedom Post 183 American Legion baseball team is elite, including the coaches. That includes Schmeltz, his assis-tant, former Northwood head coach Dave Russell, and another assistant, Eastwood alum Thomas Schmeltz. It includes the team’s players, such as Northern Buckeye Conference Offensive Player of the Year Connor Bowen of Lake, Northwood’s Evan Perkins, Genoa’s Nick Wolfe, Gibsonburg’s Brent Hayward, Cardinal Stritch Catholic’s Grant Curavo and Austin Pratt and Eastwood’s Grant Peters, Ryan Mang and Elijah Brown. Currently 23-11, Pemberville was on a roll after 34 games, fi nishing 3-2 last week-end in a tournament in Lancaster, Ohio, but not getting out of pool play and into the fi -nals. This past week they were mostly on the road, at Prospect, Ottawa, Findlay, Port Clinton, and then Monday, July 14 against Whitehouse at Anthony Wayne High School. “Things are going pretty well thus far,” said Chopper, who’s been coaching baseball for over 40 years. “We’re playing against some great competition. We’re play-ing some elite teams and seeing guys that are No. 3 and 4 hitters on their high school teams.” Bowling Green High School alum Andrew Herringshaw is leading Pemberville at the plate with a .386 average, followed by Jordan Watson (North Baltimore), who’s hitting .377. There are currently three play-ers hitting around .340. The team’s leading pitchers include Zach Foster (Elmwood), Hayward, Curavo, Peters, Watson, Nick Watts (Lakota) and Austin Rodesky (Bowling Green). “After you play 20 games or so, you know who can hit and pitch,” Schmeltz said. “It shows up more here more than

Chopper Schmeltz’ Legion team lookin’ good at 23-11

it does in school. You’re seeing the best pitchers all the time. And the good hitters, they’ll adjust and do the job. The ones that are mediocre, it catches up with them.” Schmeltz says one of the most impor-tant parts is the bond that players from op-posing schools develop with one another while playing together for the summer. If you ever watch the end of a high school baseball game, you’ll notice that a num-ber of players on the opposing teams are acquainted with one another, something that develops from playing Legion or other summer baseball together. Legion baseball is not just for high school players, it’s for college players who are on break after their freshman season —

at least for now. Starting next year, players with a year of college experience behind them will be ineligible for Legion ball, even if they are under 19-years-old, which is the age limit. Two of Pemberville’s players, Foster and Watson, currently play college base-ball, but wouldn’t have been able to play next year when the new eligibility rules go into effect. Foster just completed his fi rst season at Ohio Northern University in Ada and Watson just got done with his fresh-man campaign at Heidelberg University in Tiffi n. Coaches say one of the reasons is be-cause college recruiters don’t bother attend-ing games if the player has already signed.

Still, Schmeltz is against the rule change. “It’s important for guys that are fresh-man (in college) to play,” said Schmeltz, who played Legion ball at the same Pemberville fi eld in the late 1960s with former Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland, who was his teammate. “They get a lot more experience against a lot of 19-year-olds. If they didn’t start or get to play a lot in college, they get to play a lot in the summer,” Schmeltz, also an Eastwood graduate, continued. There are other issues facing Legion teams. Two longtime Northwest Ohio pro-grams, Lima and Fremont, folded this sea-son because of funding issues and a lack of volunteers. Legion directors say the World War II and Korean veterans who used to support the programs are dying off. The Lima team had been in existence for a half century and its games were still covered regularly by the Lima News. In recent years, Legion ball has also had to deal with competition from travel baseball teams and showcase tournaments. The downside includes the high costs to families that are required if their children want to play. In the old days, and still at most Legion halls today, the veterans who make up membership do the fundraising, but a few Northwest Ohio Legion teams are also now requiring a pay to play policy to keep their baseball program running, but costs still generally remain cheaper than other travel baseball. A longtime Legion coach in Pennsylvania, Kevin Manero, wrote, “In so many ways, it appears that parents and their sons now feel they should measure the quality of a baseball program on how much it costs to join it. But does it make sense to pay at least a $2,000 registration fee (sometimes much more) and then dish out more money on top of that for transpor-tation and hotels, only to end up at a col-lege where your counterparts on American Legion teams also landed, after paying much less to get to that point?”

Pitcher SamanthaShirling heading toLourdes University By J. Patrick EakenPress Sports [email protected]

Lourdes University head coach Jo Ann Gordon has announced that Samantha Shirling has signed a letter of intent to play softball for the Gray Wolves beginning with the 2015 season.

A right-handed pitcher from Millbury, Ohio, Shirling posted a 27-2 record in the circled for her career at Eastwood High School, including a 22-2 mark as a senior. The Eagles tallied a 56-6 record overall dur-ing her two seasons with the varsity squad.

“We are excited to have Samantha join the Gray Wolf family,” Gordon stated. “She is a proven winner at the high school level and is a true student of the game. I expect her to make an immediate impact and pro-vide depth to our pitching staff.”

Shirling was a First Team All-Northern Buckeye Conference selection as a senior at Eastwood while also garnering First Team All-District accolades. She was the recipient of the team’s Archie Griffi n Sportsmanship Award in 2014 along with being named the team’s Most Valuable Player.

Upon arriving at Lourdes, Shirling in-tends to study nursing.

Hentges family to offer at Public auction the items of the Late

Darrel Hentges, who many may remember as the Clerk at many

miscellaneous items on the wagons. Promptly at 11 am we will

then move to the toys and Massey Ferguson Memorabilia,

moving then on to the tools and farm equipment, finishing the

sale by then moving back to the wagons.
