Motorists traveling down Navarre Av-enue have likely noticed the thousands of fl owers that have bloomed at the intersec-tion of Wheeling Street.

Mike Jones planted the bulbs as part of a joint effort with the Oregon Economic Development Foundation and the Eastern Maumee Chamber of Commerce.

Dutch bulb supplier K van Bourgondi-en and Sons, of Columbus, donated 33,000 bulbs for the project, Jones told The Press last week. Jones’ company, MJJ 1 LLC, is an educational consulting company that focuses on landscape design and mainte-nance, fl oral design, blowing glass, kayak adventures, and community engagement.

“I had been in contact with Bourgon-dien and Sons for the last three years,” said Jones. “Last summer, they said they were interested in having a display where they could donate bulbs in a highly visible area – a commercial area and public setting. They wanted to demonstrate the use of spring bulbs on a larger scale to encourage businesses and landscapers to use spring bulbs as perennials, where they are not lift-ed and thrown away after they bloom each spring and replanted with new bulbs each fall.”

For his part, Jones was interested in

teaching good horticultural methods that would show how you can successfully - through good soil preparation and planting - have spring bulbs that last for many, many years.

“And do it in a way that is very cost effective,” said Jones.

“It’s actually cheaper per square foot than what it costs to take care of your lawn,” he said. “It’s intelligent, it’s eco-nomical, it’s good business sense, to prop-erly prepare the soil and prepare the bulbs to know how to mulch them so you don’t have strong weed pressure.. They could be used in major plantings in corporate and public garden settings – also at peo-

ple’s homes. We’re trying to demonstrate the concept of interplanting different spe-cies so they become compatible with each other. That surely helps reduce the main-tenance cost. It encourages young people today to be interested in pursuing a career as a professional gardener and be able to do these type of installations for both private, commercial and public settings.”

The City of Oregon was interested in terms of economic development.

“They were willing to go with my pro-posal and use the mound at the northwest corner of Navarre and Wheeling. So for 22 straight days after Christmas, before the ground totally froze, Bourgondien donated the 33,000 bulbs. We kind of lucked out. The ground didn’t freeze up. I put tarps down to keep the temperature in. It didn’t freeze up tight until the end of the second week of January. We got 1,500 of them in the ground. Then we stored them in 35 to 40 degrees over the winter and planted the rest in early spring.”

The fl owers include tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, ornamental onions, and crocus. “They will come back even stronger next year,” said Jones.

“The display started to bloom before April 3. We’ve been in good strong col-ors since April 3. If things go right, there should continue to be something in bloom

Court deniescell phonerecords requestBy Larry LimpfNews Editornews@presspublications.com

A recommendation to deny a request by an Elmore resident for cell phone call/text detail logs of Woodmore school board members and administrators was fi led Wednesday in the Ohio Court of Claims. A special master of the court recom-mended the denial in the case brought by Denise Paule, who had lodged a complaint last year alleging she was denied access to public records by the school district. In court mediation sessions, Paule and the district resolved all of her requests except for two that sought the cell phone call/text logs, according to the latest fi ling, which notes that Woodmore offi cials as-serted the requested documents were not records of the district. “Requester (Paule) alleges that the offi cials conducted district business by calls and texts using personal cell phones, and that the district pays monthly for their cell phone use for school business,” the court entry says. “The special master found that this stipend is not contingent on any particular cell phone use, and that respondent (Woodmore) does not require recipients to provide copies of their cell phone records in order to receive the sti-pend.” Paule also argued the district was re-sponsible because there was a “quasi-agen-cy relationship” between it and the cellular service providers but the special master disagreed, fi nding “no evidence that the public offi cials’ cellular service providers prepared cell/text logs in order to carry out respondent’s responsibilities, or that respondent was able to monitor the provid-er’s performance in this respect,” the court wrote. Last September, Paule requested from the district administration all email corre-spondence from June 9-25, 2017, between several past and present school board mem-bers and administrators.

Cell phone records

She also requested cell phone call/text detail logs regarding school district busi-ness. The administration responded to Paule on Oct. 8, providing emails between the board members and administrators but denying her requests for the cell phone text logs and emails to the district’s law fi rm. “If you are asking for the call/text logs, your request for copies of the personal cell phone call/text log detail of the employees listed in the request is denied because your request does not pertain to ‘public records’ as defi ned by Ohio Revised Code,” Dan Russomanno, district treasurer, respond-ed by email to Paule. “These personal cell phone call/text log details are not created by the school district, they are not received by the school district, and they do not come under the jurisdiction of the school district.” Communication between board mem-bers and the law fi rm is subject to attor-ney-client privilege, he wrote, and some of the other requested records were denied or redacted because they fall under The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Paule’s initial complaint argues the school board violated state law by not holding a meeting for deliberating action it took after an incident at a June 11, 2017 meeting. While the board was in executive session someone in the audience alleged-ly turned off a board recording device in the room where the open session was being held and a few minutes later turned it back on before the board reconvened. Rather than discussing the incident in a public meeting and then deciding to take action, Paule’s complaint says, board mem-bers discussed the matter by cell phone and emails. “They have chosen to conduct their business on cellular phone which then cre-ated the record. The public’s right to open government then leads to the only docu-ment they created which is cell phone re-cords and the call/text log created the min-ute they hit send,” her complaint says.

Oregon incorporates art and landscapingall the way to the fall.”

Good investment“In most commercial settings, the real

pressure comes when people don’t want to see dying foliage. So they pressure peo-ple to pull them right after they bloom. That is literally 15 times more expensive. All the labor to pull them, all the cost to buy the bulbs. What we’re trying to say is spend your money, prepare the soil well, plant them wisely, mulch them correctly, and fi nancial returns will be several fold over multiple years. It’s a good investment. From the bulb company’s end, they know that people buy bulbs every year from the company. But they think they can sell way more volume if people were willing to plant them on a much more massive scale like we’ve done here. I could teach good horticulture, and the City of Oregon could benefi t from the display. So it’s a win-win.” Art

Jones has also been incorporating art into the landscape, similar to what com-munities in Michigan have done.

“The goal is to incorporate art that is appropriate for the City of Oregon. It won’t be art like you see in the City of Toledo. But it’s refl ective in many ways of the quality of gardening and art like you see in cities like Grand Rapids, Michigan, Seattle, Washing-ton, and Ann Arbor, Michigan - here the ethos of the community embraces the con-cept of good art, good horticulture that will fi t into the fabric of their communities,” he said.

“We put pieces of art in with the fl o-ral. There are metal fl owers, solar powered candles hung from some of the crab apple branches, and we put up a wind vane. We are hoping some more major, substantial pieces of art can be funded to be brought in to key locations where the art might rotate every six months or a year. And local artists would be able to demonstrate they have an understanding of the community and can generate art that is more appropriate here. It is cost effective, encourages econom-

ic growth and encourages the community to join together and feel proud. That’s the

whole collective mission,” he said. Jones is doing a similar landscape in

the front of the Oregon Municipal Build-ing on Seaman Road. He hopes to sign up various businesses on the Navarre Avenue corridor as well.

“Our goal is to have many commercial establishments on Navarre do these kinds of plantings,” he said.

“We’ve partnered up with Penta, Car-dinal Stritch, and Clay High School. Hope-fully, in the fall, we’ll be doing internships for students interested in this kind of work and they can work with me. We’re looking to do additional projects at the Oregon Mu-nicipal building and at various commercial establishments up and down Navarre Ave-nue in the summer.”

According to Jones, the fl owers will come back even stronger next year. (Press photo by Ken Grosjean)

Judgment sought Lake Township has fi led a motion for summary judgment against the Village of Walbridge in the legal battle over which jurisdiction is responsible for maintaining a stretch of Drouillard Road. The township fi led the motion Wednesday in Wood County Common Pleas Court. “Reasonable minds can come but to one conclusion and that conclusion is adverse to the Village of Walbridge even construing the pleadings most strongly in their favor,” the motion says. The township contends the village has been reneging on a 1977 agreement to maintain Drouillard from the village limits south to where Drouillard meets Cummings Road. In a recent fi ling with the court and in correspondence with township offi cials, the village denied it was re-sponsible for maintain the road and the signers of the agreement were not authorized to hold the jurisdictions to it in perpetuity.

With the cost of recycling expected to go up, Oregon is discussing its options as to whether it’s worth the effort. Last year, Oregon, like other com-munities across the country, learned that China will no longer be accepting recy-cling materials from the U.S. due to con-tamination. Oregon has been reviewing its options. The city has just a few months left of a fi ve year contract with Waste Management to provide unlimited gar-bage pickup. There is a separate cost for the recycling program. “Our current contract will end in October,” said Public Service Director Paul Roman. “The cost of recycling has gone up. There are facilities that are ac-tually shutting down. It makes it more diffi cult for the waste haulers to recycle. So it is a question of, `Do we keep recy-cling, or do we not?’ We’ve been talking to Waste Management, looking at possi-bly renewing our contract and looking at different ways to recycle or not. We’re going to get different costs and alterna-tives. That’s what we’re trying to decide – whether to keep it or not.” While Waste Management has told the city that costs to continue to recycle would go up signifi cantly, Roman wants to go over the numbers. “I want to see what those costs are.

I don’t know. We’re waiting for that to come back to us,” he said. The city is also looking at the possi-bility of going to a cart system for garbage pickup. “We have unlimited waste refuse collection, and that is something waste haulers no longer want to provide. So we may be looking at the cart system where we provide residents with large recep-tacles, like Toledo. We would certainly provide those carts to our residents. If they wanted more than one, it would be something they would have to pay extra for. Each cart is equal to three garbage cans. We want to know if refuse collec-tion will be separate pickups throughout the year, and if there is any way we could get discounts on the larger receptacles. So

we’re talking all of that with waste man-agement. They are actually supposed to come back with alternatives in June. And we’ll probably have committee meetings throughout the summer to talk about it. So we’re deciding to either renew with these different alternatives or do we go out to bid. That’s something we need to decide in the summer.” No recycling It is a real possibility, he added, that the recycling program would no longer be provided in the city. Residents often throw garbage into the recycling bins and contaminate the material. When it is sorted, much of the material ends up getting thrown into the landfi ll. “If it gets that bad, it’s very likely to get turned away at a recycling facility. So it ends up going into a landfi ll. So we’re paying a premium for recycling when in fact it’s going into a landfi ll. Why would you pay extra for that. That’s the debate. Waste Management says they are taking it to a recycling facility. But that cost that is defi nitely going up. There is a facility in Detroit that it was taken to, but that just recently closed. Even though we knew the costs are going up, I think it’s going to go up even higher. No matter what, we’re going to look at the cost if we’re keeping it, and we’re going to look at the cost if we stop. We defi nitely want to share it with the public and have them weight in on it.”

No matter what, we’re going to look at the

cost if we’re keeping it, and we’re going to look at the cost if we

stop.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has published a risk assessment of the potential for hydrilla introduction within the Great Lakes. The basin-wide assessment identifi ed fi ve watersheds that could be at a higher risk for hydrilla: Southeastern Lake Ontario, St. Clair-Detroit, Western Lake Erie, Southern Lake Erie, and Southwestern Lake Erie. Hydrilla is a highly invasive aquatic plant species that was fi rst introduced to the southern United States in the 1960s from Asia. More recently there have been a noticeable number of infestations in the glacial lakes of the Northeast and Midwest, as well as within the Great Lakes Basin. Hydrilla infestations have potential to cause signifi cant ecological and economic losses. ‘The fi rst step in managing any spe-cies is identifying the extent of its possible range. For potential invasive species, this means identifying suitable habitat where the species may successfully establish if introduced,’ said Matt Barnes, Texas Tech University. Additionally, “preventing the impacts of invasive species depends on under-standing the pathways by which they are

Five watersheds at risk of hydrilla infestationspread,” said Jon Bossenbroek, University of Toledo. Species distribution and dispersal modeling were key components of the risk assessment to support the prediction of which Great Lakes watersheds are the most vulnerable to hydrilla. The risk assessment report identifi es potential economic and environmental im-pacts that may occur as a result of the intro-duction of hydrilla across the Great Lakes Basin. Potential infestations were evaluated basin-wide to project what and where the most likely environmental impacts would be and how extensive those impacts may be by the year 2025. ‘The fi ndings of this risk assessment suggest that funding agencies and man-agement practitioners should devote in-creasing attention and resources to the threat posed by hydrilla to the Great Lakes Basin,’ said Kris Erickson of Ecology and Environment, Inc. The fi rst step to prevent the spread of hydrilla is public education directed to-ward water users, including passive recre-ation users, boaters, and fi shermen, he said. In addition, report recommendations

include early detection efforts at nearshore, littoral zone habitats for the Great Lakes watersheds at the highest predicted risk. Littoral zones are generally defi ned as areas that are shallow enough to allow sunlight to reach the sediment. For additional information about hy-drilla, and to read the basin-wide risk as-sessment report, visit: http://hydrillacol-laborative.com. The risk assessment was completed un-der contract by Ecology and Environment, Inc. in partnership with North Carolina State University, Texas Tech University, and University of Toledo, with funding from the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.

“My question is, where was that de-cision made? There has to be something documented that the board is going into a session to have executive discussion if it’s private. None of that is there. That is why I’m seeking records on that,” she said at the time. Tim Rettig, who became the district superintendent after the board’s June 11 meeting, said the board has since adopted a policy of not leaving a recorder on when adjourning for an executive session.

A court case challenging the consti-tutionality of the Lake Erie Bill of Rights amendment to the Toledo city charter has been put on hold while an appeal is heard. Judge Jack Zouhary, of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, issued a stay after he denied a motion by Toledoans for Safe Water and the Lake Erie Ecosystem to intervene in the law-suit brought by Drewes Farm Partnership, Wood County, against the city. The suit argues LEBOR violates fed-eral constitutional rights, including equal protection, freedom of speech and is unen-forceable for its vagueness. In March, Judge Zouhary issued a pre-liminary injunction that prevents the city from enforcing LEBOR while the case pro-ceeds. On May 8, he issued the stay order while the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals considers the intervention request. “The people of Toledo voted on February 26 to adopt a charter amend-ment recognizing legal rights for Lake Erie. However, in his decision, Judge Zouhary not only refuses to acknowledge Rights of Nature as a legal concept – he even refus-es to hear arguments made in its favor,” a prepared statement by Toledoans for Safe Water says. “The court allowed the State of Ohio to intervene on May 1 as a plaintiff on

Lake rights case on hold pending appeal

the side of Drewes Farms. Judge Zouhary held in his ruling that the city will amply represent the people and Lake Erie. But nei-ther the city law department nor its outside counsel have any experience advancing or defending Rights of Nature laws.” The Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund has provided legal support to Toledoans for Safe Water and assisted with drafting the LEBOR ballot initiative. The group fi led the appeal of Judge Zouhary’s decision to deny the interven-tion motion.

House bill criticized The CELDF also issued a statement crit-ical of the Ohio House of Representatives’ version of the 2020-21 budget bill, saying it includes provisions prohibiting local gov-ernments from recognizing legal rights of ecosystems. The provision was included in an ex-tensive list of amendments to the bill while it was before the House Finance Committee. It states, “…nature or any ecosystem does not have standing to participate or bring an action in a common pleas court; prohibits any person, on behalf of nature or an ecosystem, from bringing, or intervening in, an action in such court; and prohibits any person from bringing an action against a person who is acting on behalf of nature or an ecosystem.” “The political maneuver is a di-rect response to the historic Lake Erie Bill of Rights passed by Toledo voters in February,” the CELDF statement says. “It’s not surprising that the Ohio legis-lature has the shameful distinction of being the fi rst in the country to specifi cally name ecosystem rights – trying to quash them rather than taking the lead in recognizing them. This is the same state government that passed House Bill 463 in 2016 in an attempt to stop communities from even advancing rights-based citizen initiatives,” stated Tish O’Dell, community organizer for the CELDF.

The food pantry operated by the Lake Township Firebelles is starting its third month in its new home in the former Walbridge Elementary School building and is seeing a gradual increase in the number of residents using its services. The pantry, which is open the third Monday of the month, will be open May 20 from 5-6:30 p.m. at the former school locat-ed at the corner of East Union and South Grove Street. “The fi rst month in March was slow,” said Elsa Caudill, who organizes the month-ly food distributions. “We just need to get the word out there. We did see an increase in April and we’re hoping that in May we’ll see more people coming back. It’s just a matter of them learning where we’re at.” The pantry isn’t serving meals yet, she said, other than snacks available during the monthly distributions. Shelving for the donated food and oth-er items is still being assembled at the new site.

New food pantry sees a gradual increase in users

“It’s been an on-going thing and I’m sure it will be for the next few months,” Caudill said. “We just want people to know that we’re there and we’re available. We are still an on-demand pantry. During Easter week we did reach out to people and some reached out to us.” Smooth transition She said the pantry’s volunteers have made the transition to the new location go smoothly. “We have Boy Scout Troop 160 back

participating and all of the people who had been volunteering before are back now,” she said. “Church of the Brethren has a do-nation for us once a month and people have brought things for us, knowing we’re try-ing to get re-started. Emmanuel Free Will Baptist Church in Luckey, where I am a member, has been contributing. Bethlehem Lutheran and St. Peter’s in Millbury were helping us before and are back.” Her own health issues have resulted in recent hospital stays and rehabilitation, “But I have had other Firebelles step up to the plate. I couldn’t have done it without them and all the other volunteers are right there. They all believe in it because it’s a good cause,” Caudill said. The Firebelles had operated a monthly food pantry and free dinner at the Walbridge Municipal Building but moved to the new location after the village administration last year decided to end its agreement with them. The Wood County Committee on Aging also uses the space at the municipal building to serve daily meals. Walbridge mayor Ed Kolanko said the county pays to use the space and the village didn’t want to jeopardize that relationship.

The pantry is accepting donations of non-perishable food items, toiletries and monetary donations. For information Caudill can be con-tacted at 419-666-3415.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture will soon begin aerial treatments designed to control the gypsy moth population in Ohio. Treatments on 2,517 acres in Lucas and Seneca, as well as Auglaize, Cuyahoga, Fulton, Hancock, Lorain, Paulding and Williams counties will begin in mid-May, as larva and leaf development reaches the optimal threshold for treatment. Treatments are administered using a low-fl ying aircraft that fl ies just above tree tops. High humidity, low temperature and minimal wind are crucial for a successful application. Treatment will most likely take place during early morning hours. The department will use Foray (Btk), a naturally occurring bacterium found in the soil that interferes with the caterpillars’ feeding cycles and Gypchek (NPV), a virus

Gypsy moth spraying to start this monththat affects only the gypsy moth caterpil-lars and has no effect on benefi cial insects. These treatments are not harmful to hu-mans, pets, birds or fi sh. View maps of treatment blocks at www.agri.ohio.gov. When the project begins, dai-ly updates on treatment progress across the state will be available on the website or by calling 614-387-0907 or 614-728-6400. Invasive Gypsy moths are invasive insects that defoliate over 300 species of trees and shrubs. In its caterpillar stage, the moth feeds on the leaves of trees and shrubs and is especially fond of oak. A healthy tree can usually withstand only two years of defoli-ation before it is permanently damaged or dies. In Ohio, 51 counties are currently un-der gypsy moth quarantine regulations.

The department uses three programs to manage the gypsy moth population in Ohio. The suppression program is used in coun-ties where the pest is already established, but landowners voluntarily request treat-ment to help suppress populations. The second program, slow-the-spread, occurs in counties in front of the larger, advancing gypsy moth population. The third program is the eradication program, used in coun-ties where isolated populations develop ahead of advancing moth populations due to human movement of the moth. Offi cials work to detect and control isolated popu-lations to slow the overall advancement of the gypsy moth infestation. For more information about the gypsy moth or for specifi c treatment locations, visit www.agri.ohio.gov.

Ag Notes

The Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) is accepting nominations to honor Ohio farm families who are leaders in con-servation for the 2019 Conservation Farm Family Awards. The award program has recognized Ohio farm families since 1984 for their ef-forts in managing natural and human re-sources while meeting both production and conservation goals. Five area fi nalists will be selected from across the state and will be recognized at the annual Farm Science Review in September. They will also receive a $400 award, cour-tesy of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, and be featured in the September issue of Ohio Farmer Magazine. Individual farmers, partnerships or family farm corporations are eligible for nomination, provided a substantial portion of their income is derived from farming. The judging is based on the nominee’s use of new and traditional conservation tech-niques, comprehensive management, indi-vidual initiative in applying conservation measures and the nominee’s willingness

Nominations sought for farm awardsto share conservation information, experi-ences and philosophy with others. Nomination forms may be obtained from local county soil and water conserva-tion districts or by visiting ODA’s website at www.agri.ohio.gov. The forms can be submitted by email to dswc@agri.ohio.gov or by mail to Conservation Farm Family Award, C/O Ohio Department of Agriculture 8995 E. Main St., Reynoldsburg, OH 43068. Forms must be returned by Monday, June 3. The awards program is sponsored by the ODA Division of Soil and Water Conservation, Ohio Farmer magazine, Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, Ohio Federation of Soil and Water Conservation Districts and the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service.

With 24 Millbury-area residents attending a Neighborhood Watch meeting Wednesday, Ohio Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Offi cer Eric VonAlmen discussed the coyote problems in the village and surrounding area. Several of the residents expressed concern for small pets that may become prey for the coyotes. Offi cer VonAlmen explained that the wild animals will

Coyote problem discussed in Millbury usually attack domestic animals such as cats and dogs because the pets are seen by the coyotes as a threat or as a food source. Ohio law stipulates that any wild animal captured must be disposed of by either releasing the animal in the same immediate area or by euthanizing it. He said moving a wild animal to another location, even to release it back into the wild, is prohibited.

The second and third meetings to seek public input on a water trail proposed for the Portage River in Wood, Sandusky and Ottawa counties will be held this week in Oak Harbor and Pemberville. The proposed trail would include a se-ries of access points to the river with park-ing and informational signs. A meeting is scheduled for May 21 at the Ottawa County Fairgrounds, State Rt. 163, and May 23 at the Pemberville Opera House, 115 Main St., Pemberville.

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden

Who do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror? Each person sees something different when they look in a mirror. Although the refl ected image may be an accurate repre-sentation of their physical appearance, their interpretation varies signifi cantly. You see who you perceive you are. It is your percep-tion which determines your reality. You are usually aware of how other people see you. But are you aware of how you see yourself? Your vision of yourself im-pacts your attitude, thoughts, and actions. You actually have conscious control over your interpretation of your refl ected image. It’s important to assess the current vision you have of yourself. Do you see possibilities or do you see limitations? Do you see a per-son who always makes excuses, or do you see someone who fi nds a way to get it done? The image you see is determined by a number of factors. Your experiences and infl uences growing up are a major compo-nent. Being raised in a supportive, encour-aging environment enables you to see a ca-pable person who is fi lled with potential. Conversely, a negative environment, where you were constantly criticized and maligned, leaves you seeing a struggling person who is constantly enmeshed in problems. Over time, your insecurities be-come deeply imbedded. Your past experiences also shape the image you see in the mirror. Successful ex-periences create a positive image. Bad ex-periences leave you feeling frustrated that you have not been able to bring about your desired outcomes. Who you see in the mirror determines your attitude, thoughts, and actions. You will not act in a manner contradictory to the person you see. If you see a failure, you won’t be successful. However, if you see a success, your behavior will enhance that success. If you are unhappy with the person

you see, you can change that image. You are not locked into the person you current-ly see in the mirror. That image represents who you believe you are right now. You can alter that image to correspond to the person you want to be. Any steps you take in response to dis-content must be positive. Negative, self-de-structive actions, such as substance abuse or aberrant behavior, are guaranteed to make matters worse. Feeling sorry for your-self gets you nowhere. You are responsible for the decisions you make. In order to make changes in your life, you must fi rst change who you see in the

mirror. This is possible by letting go of the past and putting an end to any excuses. Instead, focus on today and the future with a commitment to do whatever is necessary to reach your objectives. The person you see is unique. You have your own aptitudes and abilities. Nothing is gained by comparing yourself to others. All that matters is who you need to become in order to get onto your desired path. Determine what characteristics the person in the mirror should have. The es-sential component, which is the basis for all success, is a can-do mindset. With this in place, you are ready to make any neces-sary changes. Aspects of yourself which may be im-proved include your attitude, outlook, man-ners, persistence, determination, knowl-edge, skills, and patience. Remember that you are not tied to who you have been. You are free to determine who you will be. The mirror is your friend. It shows you

who is responsible for your life. You are a work in progress, not frozen in time. Be honest about who you see in the mirror. The actions you take today are what matter.

Vehicle entries, break-ins can be avoided in many cases From time to time, most all law en-forcement agencies receive multiple re-ports from citizens who have had their ve-hicles entered and items taken from inside. These incidents usually occur in a rash of thefts in one area or neighborhood dur-ing the night. Like much of the crime that happens these days, the motive can be to get money to buy drugs. Not all illegal vehicle entries are con-sidered break-ins. For a break-in to occur, it usually has to involve some type of force, such as the breaking of a window. In the end, whether force has been used or not, a vehicle owner is going to be out the property that was taken. The bigger difference is the vehicle owner will face an expensive repair to repair the window or other damage to the vehicle. While it is generally true that a locked vehicle is more likely to keep unwanted people out of a vehicle, it should be re-membered that a person who really wants inside will break a window. The key factor here is to prevent some-one from wanting inside the vehicle. In other words, don’t give them any incen-tives to want inside. Valuable such as purs-es, wallets, and electronic devices should be removed from a vehicle and put back in

only when they are going to be needed. Today’s cell phones have reduced the need for some other electronic devic-es such as GPS units and music devices. Smartphones have incorporated these features, and most people keep their cell phones with them. If you fi nd it absolutely necessary to leave a cell phone inside a vehicle, for ex-ample to allow it to charge, it should be hidden from view. You can place it under a seat or tuck it between the seat and the console. You must keep in mind, however, that someone may still see the charging cord, giving them a clue there is likely an electronic device attached. Purses and wallets are a glaring invita-tion for someone to get inside a car to take them. You may just as well have a fl ashing neon sign on top of the vehicle letting every-one know the item is there for the taking. Most people would be surprised to

know how enticing loose coin change is. It is the one item that is consistently taken when a vehicle has been entered by a thief. To you, it is less than a dollar or two, but to a thief it is something easy to grab, easy to carry, and something that doesn’t need to be “fenced,” or sold to turn into cash. This change also adds up for the thief. Many newer vehicles come equipped with some type of security system, and vehicle owners who have older ones may have installed a keyless entry device and/or remote starter system. These devices can go a long way in preventing vehicle entries and break-ins. Each vehicle owner or driver must de-cide for himself or herself if they are going to lock the doors when they exit, particu-larly at night. Regardless of which line of thought is used—to lock or not to lock—a security system allows an important option. You can “arm” the vehicle by engaging the alarm system with the remote, which will lock the doors. You can then manu-ally unlock each of the front doors with the key. This way, a thief can enter the vehicle without breaking a window, but the alarm should still sound when a door is opened. You should also remember thieves like to work in the dark. They will avoid well lit areas; depending on the desperateness

of their situation (how badly they need the money or drugs). Having bright lights on at all times near a vehicle is the most effective way to use light to your advantage. Lights that are motion activated are the next best thing, but remember the thieves will already be on your property before they realize you have them. In short, thieves don’t like noise and they don’t like light. If you hear strange noises that sound like you may have an intruder, call 9-1-1 immediately and stay inside. Turn on outside lights that may not already be on. Never go outside to confront someone. A few months ago, we had a rash of ve-hicle entries in the township and a resident went outside only to be met with gunfi re. Luckily, the resident was not hit. Many thieves are not stupid, but you can be smarter. Use these tips to protect your vehicle and yourself.

Parents, you might fi nd drugs ‘hidden in plain sight’By J. Patrick EakenPress Staff Writernews@presspublications.com Parents, that deodorant sitting on your teenage children’s dresser may not be what it seems. It might be a container for marijuana or even more illicit drugs — manufactured for that purpose — to hide its contents. The items are sold at head shops and on the internet and might be disguised as any household item, including cleaners, tampons, and soda cans. Teenagers also learn to create their own disguises, like hiding drugs inside of an apple, or how to use a fl ash drive to charge the battery com-ponent of a vape device. On your teenager’s cell phone may be blogging apps to post illicit drug-culture or sexual content, to hide photos and videos, or a chatting app that is easily identifi able to predators. They say parents often come across the signs of drug abuse or other illicit behavior in their own home and walk right passed it without notice. That’s why hea lth educator Kayla DeMuth brought “Hidden in Plain Sight” to Eastwood High School on May 2. Wood County Sheriff’s Detective Sgt. Ryan Richards says Eastwood has seen six of its own community members die from opium or heroin overdoses in the past three-and-a-half years, and it is one of the few districts in the area that does not have drug testing. About 50 residents arrived in the high school auditorium to hear from DeMuth and Sgt. Richards, who works alongside the Addiction Response Collaborative, or ARC — a program within the prosecutor’s of-fi ce. Wood County’s ARC program has sim-ilarities to Lucas County’s DART program with some alterations, says Sgt. Richard. With the two speakers was Matt, a for-mer Bowling Green High School student-athlete who nearly passed away from an overdose eight months earlier. Matt ac-knowledged that he used a second cell phone, a fl ip phone without GPS, to com-municate with dealers — another sign in looking for drug abuse.

From cartels to Wood County Sgt. Richards said seven tons of heroin was seized in the United States in 2015, and almost all comes from Mexico or Colombia, smuggled into the country by cartels. Sgt. Richards described in detail how the car-tels work the heroin into places like Toledo or Wood County. Sgt. Richards says once a user gets ad-dicted to heroin, it’s no longer about get-ting high. Instead, it’s about “avoiding the fever” that comes with withdrawal. He described “the fever” as like “the fl u times 10.” Richards says it usually takes about two to three weeks of usage to get to that point, and Matt shook his head in agree-ment. “I needed it to get through the day,” Matt said. “I would have to drive to Toledo every single day, not because I wanted to, but because I needed to.”

Sgt. Richards says he has seen dealers go well out of their way to keep someone addicted. They even have found dealers preying on people at behavioral centers. For example, sheriff’s deputies spotted a dealer who was loitering at the Zepf Center in Toledo just looking for vulnerable ad-dicts. He said the behavior of addicts can be even worse. “Addicts have no coping skills and they are never held accountable,” Sgt. Richards said. “A female overdosed after her dog died and she couldn’t cope with it.

She spent three months with a dope dealer and he used her for sex.” Matt and Sgt. Richards note that there is no stereotype for an addict; it can be a doctor or teacher. Matt was a standout baseball and hockey player at BGHS and not someone anyone would have suspected might become a heroin user. Matt is in after-care right now in an extended program and still sees a coun-selor once a week. When he fi rst went into therapy, he was sent to a facility out of the county, away from dealers and friends who might infl uence him, for 57 days. He is back to living with his parents. Sgt. Richards says it nearly always starts with marijuana use. “If I took 135 people in our program, 135 people would say it started with mari-juana,” Sgt. Richards said. “There were six deaths at Eastwood High School (com-munity) in the past few years and when I talked to the family, it all started with mari-juana. “It’s here. It’s hard for me to say every-thing is here. You are the closest to Toledo. It’s more accessible to you guys than it is Elmwood or Otsego. You are one of the three worst ones in Wood County,” the sheriff’s detective continued.

DeMuth and Sgt. Richards both linked heroin abuse to human traffi cking. “There is a reason why Toledo, Ohio is the human traffi cking center of the United States,” Richards said. DeMuth adds that human traffi cking victims are typically forced to use drugs. In addition, every day in the U.S., 46 people die from prescription painkiller overdoses. Richards says knowing when a heroin or opiate overdose is happening is crucial to preventing the loss of life. “It’s looks like they have had the life sucked out of them. Their lips are pale and fi ngers are starting to turn blue,” he said, adding the most important sign is that their breathing gradually slows to dangerous lev-els until it stops completely. Sgt. Richards says law enforcement has seen a reduction in overdoses because of the availability of Nalaxone, or Narcan, which is available over the counter or free from county agencies and can be used to re-verse the effects of an overdose. The prob-lem now is that Narcan is at parties, too. Matt says that if Narcan was available at a heroin party, it was like he “had a get out of jail free card.” When Narcan is on the scene, he says there is “no accountability, no responsibility” for the users.

Laura Laffey has a full barn – six chick-ens, fi ve dogs, two cats, two goats and four horses. One of her horses, Sprinkles, stands out from the others. Laffey didn’t plan on having a therapy horse until last Halloween when she took her kids trick-or-treating and her son went as Prince Charming with Sprinkles as his noble steed. In the midst of the craze of Halloween and kids in costume running up to pet her, Sprinkles did not fl inch or bat an eye. It was then Laffey realized just how much Sprinkles loves making people happy and how good she is at doing so. Subsequently Sprinkles underwent the required training and testing in order to become a certifi ed therapy pet through Pet Partners, a workplace wellness program. She passed the tests with the highest score and has no limitations on visits. Sprinkles is the fi rst therapy horse in Northwest Ohio registered through Pet Partners. “I think it’s important for the commu-nity – when you go to a nursing home and it just brightens their week, or even their month,” Laffey said. While Laffey and Sprinkles currently enjoy visiting nursing homes and schools, they would like to work on visiting hos-pitals or doing house visits to those who are homebound, to bring joy there as well. However, they are only able to stay for a couple hours at a time. As helpful as Sprinkles is for those who are sick, she also is fantastic at putting smiles on the faces of those who have lost a loved one or are lonely. While Sprinkles is a loving, kind horse who loves brightening people’s day, Laffey asks that no one feeds Sprinkles during therapy visits, as she could learn to expect food in someone’s hand and may nip. Riding Sprinkles is also discouraged, because she is a miniature horse with a weight limit, and to prevent undue stress.

Sprinkles delivering big smiles, serenity

“I want to keep the visits enjoyable for her,” Laffey said. “She’s not there just for their amusement, I do it also for her enrich-ment.”

Life-saving reminders for boaters The National Safe Boating Council and its partners are kicking off the an-nual Safe Boating Campaign the week-end before Memorial Day with National Safe Boating Week, May 18-24, with important safety reminders for boaters as the busy boating season gears up. “We are excited to join forces with partners around the world to encour-age everyone to wear a life jacket when on the water and always boat respon-sibly because the best boating experi-ence is a safe boating experience,” said Peg Phillips, executive director of the National Safe Boating Council. In 2017, the U.S. Coast Guard re-ported 658 deaths in the U.S. from boating incidents, with 75 percent of those deaths caused by drowning. Of those deaths, 85 percent are reported as not wearing their life jackets. “Wearing a life jacket is the sim-plest safety step a boater can take, just like a driver wears a seat belt in a ve-hicle,” Phillips said. The Safe Boating Campaign contin-ues throughout the boating season with local outreach efforts around the world, including Ready, Set, Wear It Life Jacket Events on various dates. These family-friendly events teach boaters about the importance of always wearing a life jacket, along with helpful care and maintenance information. Boaters can connect with campaign partners in their local community at safeboating-campaign.com/become-a-partner. Safe boating tips and educational resources can be found at safeboat-ingcampaign.com. The Safe Boating Campaign is produced under a grant from the Sports Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund.

Senior Scam Workshop Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) will host a “Stopping Senior Scams Workshop” on Thursday, May 30 at 10 a.m. in the auditorium at Penta Career Center, 9301 Buck Rd. in Perrysburg. The event will consist of speakers from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and an IRS Taxpayer Advocate to raise awareness about common scams that target seniors and offer tips on how to avoid be-coming a victim of fraud. Illegal robocalls are on the rise - Ohioans received 1.7 billion in 2018. These calls are costly, with 22 million Americans losing a total of $9.5 billion in robocall scams in 2016 alone. Congressman Latta is the Republican Leader on the Energy and Commerce Committee’s Subcommittee on Communications and Technology, and has been leading efforts to address consumer scams, particularly robocalls. His legisla-tion, the STOP Robocalls Act (H.R.2386), would help prevent bad actors from fraud-ulently calling consumers by giving over-sight agencies and private companies ad-ditional tools to block calls.

Composers return to TMA For several decades, a pair of compos-ers from Maumee and Austria have collabo-rated on albums, museum exhibitions, con-certs, and music festivals across the globe. The pair will return to the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA) at 7 p.m., Friday, May 24 for a concert in the Little Theater. Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Tim Story are performing in conjunction with “Everything is Rhythm”: Mid-Century Art & Music. The exhibition in the New Media Gallery pairs a selection of 20th-century abstract paintings with a carefully curated musical composition. In 2017, Story transformed TMA’s GlasSalon into an eight-channel, multi-sen-sory installation called The Roedelius Cells — Story’s own radical reworking of record-ings he made of Roedelius at the piano. One of Story’s “cells” is included in “Everything is Rhythm” and during this concert, Roedelius and Story will perform selections from Cells and their collabora-tive project Lunz as well as some electronic improv and solo piano works. Tickets are $12 for members, $16 for nonmembers and $8 for students and mili-tary. Visit toledomuseum.org.

Ottawa County Senior Resources inducted six new Senior Hall of Fame recipients at their 2019 “Slumber Party” Senior Day, held at Camp Perry Clubhouse on Wednesday, May 1. The recipients for this year’s awards include Vera Mae Hille, nominated by the Elmore Golden Oldies Senior Center; John Diebert, nominated by the Genoa Senior Center; Arlene and Milton Wilburn, nominated by the Harbor Lights Senior Center of Oak Harbor; Marty Stys, nominated by the Danbury Senior Center; B. Joan Wolf, nominated by the Port Clinton Senior Center and Sara Toole, nominated by the Put-in-Bay Senior Center. Recipients received a plaque com-memorating their service to the seniors and citizens of Ottawa County. • Vera Mae Hille is the local cheer-leader for the Elmore Golden Oldies Senior Center, always encouraging oth-ers to eat, tell stories and learn from the guest speakers. “She was always our prayer leader, giving prayers that she wrote herself,” her nomination says. Vera has been a Lifelong member of Grace Lutheran Church in Elmore. She and her late husband spearheaded the move from the small church on Maple Street to its current spacious, handi-capped accessible location on Witty Road. She was active with her husband in operating a strawberry farm, employing many high school students. In fellow-ship, she encouraged local residents to attend church, visit the library, and sup-port area business. She even wrote a book about herself to answer all the important questions about herself. At the age of 94, and dealing with mobility challenges, she now has care at home and uses a walker on a regular ba-sis, but that does not stop her from being active. She has led a full and active life, rais-ing three sons – Paul, David and Gordon.

Ottawa County announces 2019 Senior Hall of Fame recipients

She played an active role in both her family and community. She says one of her fondest memories was her father hitching up a horse to the buggy for an afternoon ride. • John Diebert is always willing to help motivate and encourage others to join in and have fun at the Genoa Senior Center. Acting as treasurer and now vice president, he has dedicated this time to the needs of the older generation. The retired Army Chief Warrant Offi cer is a longtime resident of Genoa (over 60 years) and is noted for his pie baking, gift giving and his assistance at the Genoa Care Center and with the Genoa Christian Church. “He has strong leadership skills and shows compassion and caring,” his

nomination says, adding Diebert is also known for his wise-cracking sense of hu-mor. “He is always willing to lend a help-ing hand.” Though he deals with medical events that have impacted his life, his persis-tence and determination have helped him to return to many of the activities he enjoys. He is dedicated to his beloved Genoa, always interested in the growth and de-velopment of all ages, but especially the youth. Diebert is the father of four, grand-father of nine and great-grandfather of seven. • Arlene and Milton Wilburn, who have recently joined the Harbor Lights family, have “made a bang at the center,”

their nomination said. They both are willing to help other members of the group and will always help with clearing tables. Milton is espe-cially willing to help and is “the perfect gentleman.” They are very active, sometimes to-gether, sometimes individually. They are known for being helpful, compassionate and caring. They are both involved in their church, St. John’s Lutheran Church in Oak Harbor. They are also involved in the Eagles and Lions Clubs. Arlene makes time to visit her church family and friends in care facilities very week. The Wilburns say they really enjoy their time with their friends at “Harbor Lights.”

The American Red Cross has a critical shortage of type O blood and urges eligible donors to give now to help patients facing trauma and other life-threatening situa-tions. As a thank-you for helping replenish the blood supply, all donors who come to give blood or platelets through June 10 will receive a $5 Amazon.com gift card via email. Additionally, those who come to give May 24-28 will receive an exclusive Red Cross-branded T-shirt, while supplies last. Right now, the Red Cross has less than a two-day supply of type O blood available for emergency rooms, where it can be most critical. That means just six units of type O blood are available for every 100,000 peo-ple, but at least 14 are needed every day. While just 7% of the U.S. population has

Red Cross seeking donors during blood shortagetype O negative blood, it can be transfused to patients with any blood type and is what hospital staff reach for during emergencies when there isn’t time to determine a pa-tient’s blood type. Type O positive blood is the most transfused blood type and is also critical in trauma situations. “All blood types are urgently needed, but we’re facing a critical shortage of type O blood – the blood group most needed by hospitals,” said Cliff Numark, senior vice president, Red Cross Blood Services. “Because it’s vitally important for hospitals to have type O blood available when every second counts, type O donors are urged to donate now and make a point to donate of-ten.” Spring break schedules are known to decrease blood donations, and schools, in-

cluding high schools and colleges, begin to host fewer blood drives in late spring as school years end. Because these drives account for about 20% of blood donations during the school year, fewer drives can also greatly affect the blood supply. Donors of all blood types, especially type O, are urged to make an appointment to donate using the Blood Donor App, at RedCrossBlood.org or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). Eligible donors with type O blood are encouraged to make a whole blood or Power Red donation, where available. During a Power Red dona-tion, donors give a concentrated dose of red blood cells during a single donation, allow-ing them to maximize their impact. Local blood donation opportunities in-clude:

Emma, Liam repeat as top baby names

Liam and Emma are once again America’s most popular baby names in 2018. This is the second time Liam is atop the boys list and the fi fth year in a row for Emma. Two long-timers on the list, Jacob and Abigail, toppled out of the top 10 for the fi rst time since 1992 and 2000. There are two new names in this year’s top 10 — Lucas for the fi rst time ever, and Harper makes her way back on the list. Here are the top 10 baby names for 2018 in order of popularity: Boys: Liam, Noah, William, James, Oliver, Benjamin, Elijah, Lucas, Mason and Logan. Girls: Emma, Olivia, Ava, Isabella, Sophia, Charlotte, Mia, Amelia, Harper and Evelyn. For all of the top baby names of 2018, and to see where your name ranks, visit Social Security’s website, www.socialsecu-rity.gov/babynames/. Social Security began compiling the baby name list in 1997, with names dating back to 1880. At the time of a child’s birth, parents supply the name to the agency when applying for a child’s Social Security card, thus making Social Security America’s source for the most popular baby names. Each year, the list reveals the effect of pop-culture on naming trends. Royalty seems to have infl uenced parents in 2018. Meghan was the fastest-rising girls’ name, moving 701 spots to number 703 from number 1,404 in 2017. This jump speaks to the popularity of Meghan Markle, an American who joined the royal family when she married Prince Harry in 2018. Tune in next year to see how newborn Archie infl uences Moms and Dads in 2019. The name Archie actually reappears in the top 1,000 in 2018 for the fi rst time since 1988, and he will likely continue climbing up the list after the latest royal news. Winter is coming for “Game of Thrones” fans. The name Yara voyaged 314 spots from number 986 in 2017 to number 672 in 2018 on the girls’ side. Followers of the hit HBO show know this probably is due to Yara Greyjoy, a character on the popular series. For the boys, Genesis is the fastest-ris-ing name for 2018, shuffl ing his way 608 spots to number 984 from number 1,592 in 2017. There has been a resurgence of clas-sic names in the top 10 baby names in re-cent years, so perhaps Genesis is a harken-ing back to the classic English rock band led by Phil Collins. Speaking of Genesis, award winning Grammy singer and coach on “The Voice,” Alicia Keys named her son Genesis after his birth. Visit www.socialsecurity.gov/baby-names/ to view the entire list. Acting Commissioner Nancy A. Berryhill encourages everyone to enjoy the baby names list and also to create a “my Social Security account” at www.socialse-curity.gov/myaccount. My Social Security is a personalized online account that people can use beginning in their work-ing years and continuing while receiving Social Security benefi ts.

University of Toledo sophomore out-fielder Bekah Yenrick (Clay) is a key ele-ment to the Rockets’ softball team that earned a bid to the NCAA Division I tour-nament. Toledo (29-26) faced No. 14 seed Kentucky (33-22) Friday in Lexington, Ky. in first-round regional action. The Rockets are bracketed alongside Virginia Tech (45-9) and Illinois (32-23), and are making their first appearance in the NCAA Tournament since 1992.

“We were pretty sure it would be Kentucky so it didn’t surprise me,” Toledo coach Joe Abraham said. “They’re a good SEC team so it’s obviously going to be very difficult, but we played Florida State close so anything can happen. All of those teams have good pitchers so the key for us is good solid pitching and to make all of the plays. Any game is winnable for us. Yeah we’re an underdog, but not so much of an under-dog that we can’t win games.”

“This is just exciting,” senior second base Megan Choate said. “We just won the MAC and I think the team isn’t really over that. Being in the room tonight you could just feel the vibe and it was really excit-ing. Knowing that I get to play a few more games with this team moved me to tears. I’ve been thinking about it a lot but now we have at least two more games. It’s just exciting being able to put the uniform on and play with the girls a little bit more.”

Yenrick has started in 50 games and played in 53, batting .252 (30 for 119) with 14 runs, eight doubles, one home run, 25 RBIs, a .345 slugging percentage and .401 on base percentage, plus she has not made an error all season.

As a freshman, she appeared in 45 games, started 35 and hit .271 with 96 at-bats, nine runs, 26 hits, five doubles, three home runs, 21 RBIs and slugged .417. She had one stretch where she reached base in eight straight games and recorded six RBIs against Ball State on May 5, tying for the most RBIs in a single game in UT history.

Yenrick was a four-year letter winner at Clay, Earning second-team all-state as a senior and honorable mention all-state honors in 2016. She was a three-time all-district and four-time first-team All-Three Rivers Athletic Conference selection.

Yenrick led the Eagles in doubles, RBIs, walks, batting average and fielding percentage as a junior and is the single season school record holder in home runs, doubles, RBIs and fielding percentage. She is the career record holder in RBIs, home runs and batting average at Clay.

“I am very excited that Bekah will get the chance to play in the NCAA soft-ball tournament,” said Clay coach Brenda Radabaugh. “This is an amazing opportu-nity for her and the University of Toledo softball team. I am proud of Bekah for her accomplishments on the softball field and in the classroom. She is a hard-working player who deserves her moment in the spotlight.”

Bekah is the daughter of Robert and Holly Yenrick and is majoring in exercise science at UT.

The Rockets are coming off the Mid-American Conference Tournament where they won the first tourney title in program history after going on a five-game tear in the loser’s bracket as the No. 7 seed, taking down No. 4 Northern Illinois, No. 2 Kent State, No. 1 Miami and No. 3 Ohio. Toledo

Yenrick part of magical run to NCAA

most recently won the MAC regular-season title in 1992, but this was the first MAC Tournament crown for the program.

Toledo was the lowest seeded team in MAC Tournament history to win the title.

“I’m in a state of disbelief that we got it done,” Abraham said. “It was a team effort, especially with pitching from Kailey (Minarchik) and Leah (Allison) that saved Erin (Hunt) some innings of work.

Erin was clutch for us, and all of the clutch hitting, clutch defensive plays and a big out from Sam (Golden) in the sixth inning of the final game made this just an unbelievable team effort. We have a bunch of battlers. Literally one week ago we were fighting to get into the tournament. It was such a good feeling to beat Central Michigan and make it in. One week later, here we are the MAC Champions and I literally can’t believe it.”

Toledo claimed the title in dramatic fashion, rallying from a five-run deficit to defeat Ohio, 6-5, in the second game to set up a winner-take-all battle with the Bobcats. That game was no contest, with the Rockets demolishing Ohio, 9-2.

The Rockets began the tournament with a 4-2 win over No. 2 seed Kent State on Thursday before falling 7-1 to the Bobcats on Friday. Fighting through the loser’s bracket in the double elimination-style tournament, the Rockets had to defeat each of the top four seeds to come out on top. All together, Toledo outscored the competition 33-14 in its last five games.

The Rockets were led in the circle by Hunt, a sophomore who tossed 37.1 innings with four complete games. (— from UT press releases)

Koch, Bryertop throwers At the Northern Buckeye Conference track meet, Genoa dominated all four throw-ing events. As a result, the Comets swept the “Field Athlete of the Meet” awards as senior Noah Koch took the top boys honor and senior Alexis Bryer took the top girls honor, each winning two throwing events. Koch won the shot put with a toss of 54-3½, just over two feet short of the league record set by Logan Bryer in 2014 (56-6¼). Koch also won the discus with a throw of 164-2. That record is also owned by Logan Bryer (173-6), which was set in 2014. Genoa senior Christian Pearson won the boys long jump with a leap of 20-10¾ and the 100 meter dash (11.45). Genoa se-nior Sean Hoeft won the 1,600 in 4:39.58. Woodmore junior Cole Sotak won the pole vault, clearing 14 feet. In the girls meet, Alexis Bryer won this year’s shot put (36-9) and discus (100-8).

The 4x200 relay team of junior Colette Askins, freshmen Ava Ayers and Olivia Hayward and senior Mya Staczek won in 1:51.18.

Woodmore sophomore Ava Beam woke up still fi ghting a cold last Saturday morning prior to the Northern Buckeye Conference meet at Eastwood.

A few sniffl es, however, couldn’t stop her from winning three individual events and anchoring the Wildcats’ 4x800 relay to a fi rst place fi nish.

“She’s a high-quality athlete, a gamer,” Woodmore coach Jim McMahon said. “She shows up on meet day and you can count on her to perform at a high level. We as coaches are super proud of her. She con-sistently performs at a high level, and she’s been that way all season.”

Beam won the 800 in 2:30.34, took fi rst in the 1600 in (5:31.10) and still had enough energy to win the 3200 (12:26.86) in her fi nal event of the day. She and senior teammates Nora LaMunyon and Maddie Thatcher and sophomore Olivia Thatcher started off the meet by winning the 4x800 relay in 10:30.77.

“I was pretty happy with my perfor-mance,” Beam said. “I wasn’t expecting that to happen at all. With nobody pushing me, I think I had decent times running all four events.”

Beam admitted that she was “pretty tired” after winning the 3200, her fi nal event of the day.

“I just tried to do my best,” she said. “I was worried for how the day would turn out. Friday night I was telling my-self that whatever happens happens and I can’t be disappointed if I don’t set a PR. You have to work with what you have. My split was not what it usually is in the re-lay. The 4x800, I like the team aspect of it. You all have to depend on each other and it motivates me to run faster, because I know there’s that pressure on me to per-form well.”

The 5-foot-9 Beam also won the 1600 and 3200 at last year’s NBC meet and ad-vanced to the regional meet in both events. Beam, Olivia Thatcher and LaMunyon were on the winning 4x800 relay at last year’s conference meet, then went on to take 16th

Woodmore’s Ava Beam beats odds, wins four eventsplace at the Division III state meet.

“Ava has had a really good season,” McMahon said. “I’m not surprised by her performance. She shows up at practice and works hard and does everything we ask of her. She is very respectful, a hard worker, and she has a great attitude. She’s a quality person who does the right thing and she is a very well-rounded student-athlete.”

Beam also runs cross country and was a point guard on the Wildcats’ basketball team this season. Her offseason running workouts vary depending on the time of year; her parents, Julie and Ryan, some-times bike alongside her during her train-ing runs.

“During the summer I do a workout the coaches put together for us,” Beam said. “I run at different parks and I run in Elmore. I train all summer for cross country. I play basketball, so I don’t do a lot of running for track (season). I will go run three or four miles on Sundays. I just feel like I have to, to be ready for track to start again.”

Beam and Olivia Thatcher are the strength of Woodmore’s long-distance group, McMahon said. He added that Beam and Thatcher often go back and forth as the team’s best runners in the 3200, but Beam is the Wildcats’ top performer in the 800 and 1600.

“It’s friendly, but underneath the sur-face they’re competitors,” McMahon said. “They push each other in practice. It’s good, healthy competition.”

Olivia Thatcher took second (12:42.21) behind Beam in the 3200 at the NBC meet, and she also placed third in the 1600 and fourth in the 800.

“We’re best friends and we push each other,” Beam said. “At the end of the day, it doesn’t affect us. We just want each other to become better runners.”

Beam said she has the top time in the 3200 heading into this week’s D-III district meet at Sandusky Perkins, and her goal is to return to the state meet in at least two events.

“I’m hoping to make it in the 4x800 and a personal event,” she said. “I plan on running the mile, two-mile and 4x800 at districts, and I plan on focusing on the 4x800 and two-mile at regionals. I really want to get back to state.”

The Oak Harbor girls track team had 10 individuals win seven events as the Rockets scored 197 points to easily win the Sandusky Bay Conference Bay Division title. Huron was in second with 122 points. Senior Sophia Eli, sophomores Paige Clune and Elayna Krupp and freshman Hannah Schulte won the 4x100 meter relay with a time of 50.67, less than a second off the league record set by a Perkins squad in 2015. Krupp and fellow classmates Abby Below and Emily Haar joined freshman Logan Wagner to win the 4x400 in 4:11.5. Below won the 400 in 1:01.55, Krupp won the 200 in 27.15, junior Emily Wolf won the discus with a throw of 126 feet, 11 inches, senior Peyton Bloomer cleared 5-2 to win the high jump and sophomore Madison McKitrick leaped 16-2½ to win the long jump.

Rockets edge Chargers It wasn’t by much, but the Oak Harbor boys track team edged out Edison 170½-167 to win the Bay Division championship. The championship was led by 18 re-turning letter winners, including a strong core of seniors. “We feel as though we have a great core group of seniors who are leading the team in the right direction,” said coach Andy Augsburger. “We also feel as though our sprinters have trained very hard. “I am very proud of how my throwers have competed and pushed each other in practice and meets. I also am very proud of our young group of distance and middle distance athletes. They have been fi ghting for spots and pushing each other every day. “We want to fi ght for a league title ev-ery year. That has always been our mental-ity. Our competition at SBCs in track and fi eld is always amazing. I think that’s why our coaching staff and athletes like that time of year a lot. The competition is al-ways great. Our league meet is very unique with three divisions. You get to see some of the best teams and athletes in the state.” Oak Harbor junior Aidan Barton won four events, including the 100 meter dash, fi nishing in 11.48 seconds, the 200 (23.33) and he was part of two championship relay teams. Barton joined seniors Nick Pfeiffer and Ajay Riechman and junior Tyler May to win the 4x200 relay (1:32.44) and Barton, Riechman, May, and senior Brandon Elmes won the 4x100 in 43.78. Pfeiffer, May, Elmes and sophomore Wyatt Miller teamed up to win the 4x400 (3:28.65). In addition, Pfeiffer won the 400 meter dash, fi nishing in 51.8 seconds. “Aidan Barton, Ajay Riechman, Tyler May, Brandon Elmes and Nick Pfeiffer all have put in a lot of work in the off season to prepare for the upcoming outdoor season. They have high goals for 2019. They also have competed at the state meet and know what it takes to be mentally tough as well as physically tough,” Augsburger said. “Aidan Barton ended his sophomore season on a high note. He ran a fully auto-matic 23.1 in the 200 meters and made his way to state in the 4x2. He has trained hard in the offseason. His times this year have been great,” Augsburger continued. “Nick Pfeiffer had a tough junior sea-

Oak Harbor boys, girls track sweep Bay Division titles

son in track and an injury in football his senior year. He has worked his way to be-coming one of our fastest athletes we have. He has trained so hard to get back in run-ning form after surgery. “Nick Pfeiffer had total ACL replace-ment surgery after an injury in football in October 2018. He has been on a mission to be back on this team and has trained tre-mendously. Many days in the offseason have been hard with rehab and training. We are hoping that he ends his career on a high note.” Augsburger believed all along that his relay teams would excel, and he’s seeing it happen. “With a great core group of returning sprinters we look to compete at a high lev-el. Our past seniors have paved the way for our athletes getting to regions and state,” Augsburger said. “Now our athletes know what it takes to be mentally and physically tough at dis-tricts, regions and state. Our 4x1 and 4x2 has had great success so far. With that said it will be important to keep gaining trust as a core group and bring the underclassmen that we have with them.”

Roob makes comeback Elmes, a winner in the 300 hurdles last year, this year fi nished second in that event (39.39) and second in the 100 hur-dles, too (15.18), fi nishing one-hundredth of a second behind the winner in the 110 and by just over one-fi fth of a second in the 300, both times to Huron junior Jimmy Harkelroad. Oak Harbor senior Cole Roob won the

Bay Division shot put with a throw of 52 feet, almost four feet better than second place Willard senior Josh Holida (48-¼). Like Pfeiffer, Roob had to make a comeback from an injury. “After having major knee surgery in October of 2017 we didn’t know if he would be released or ready to throw for his 2018 (junior season),” Augsburger said. “He was able to power throw shot most of last year and had a PR of 48 feet. This year is able to glide and has more stability and confi dence. He has set some high goals.” In the long jump, May did not reach his PR, but leaped 20-3¾ to fi nish second behind Vermilion senior Cavan Leonardo (21-1½). “He has already jumped 21-10 this sea-son. His form and landing have improved tremendously. He has set some high goals this season,” Augsburger said. In the 1600, senior Marcus Hartlage, who fi nished sixth in the 3200 at last year’s regionals, fi nished in third at the SBC meet

with a time of 4:35.49, and in the 3200 Oak Harbor freshman T.J. Hallett was fourth in 10:21.73 and Hartlage was fi fth in 10:28.55. “Marcus has a lot of experience and knows what it takes to compete at a high level. He has been a great leader which is why our distance/middle distance program is growing stronger every day,” Augsburger said. “The underclassmen (including Hallett) are young but compete at a high level every meet. They are learning a lot.” Augsburger said it was good to see his team pull out a league championship after graduating some top talent and fi nishing as Bay Division runner-up last year. “We graduated Andy Buderer (now at Ohio Northern University), a two-time regional placer in the pole vault. We have two athletes who have stepped up and started training for the event. They are both young and are improving every day. We graduated Jake Lewis and Alex Gezo both who were in the high jump.” (— photos of Oak Harbor athletes by Laura Bolander)

Children’s Ticket (3-6 years)

Adult Ticket (7 years+)

By J. Patrick EakenPress Sports Editorsports@presspublications.com

Northwood track has just seven boys and 11 girls on the team, but nearly every one of them has found a way to contribute.

The Northwood girls team scored 186 points in the six-team Toledo Area Athletic Conference meet to easily defeat second place Ottawa Hills (109). “The girls knew they had a good op-portunity to win the conference this year, and many of them rose to occasion, drop-ping times, adding feet in their events,” said Coach Jeremy Lewin. “It was a great team effort.”

The boys team scored 122, fi nishing as league runner-up behind the Green Bears (146).

Therefore, if you have 18 athletes with talent, then that is good enough if all of them contribute. “We have strong numbers on both the girls and boys teams which allows us to put a full line-up on the track every week,” Lewin said.

This is the fi rst league championship in the 12 years that Lewin has been coach. Last year, Northwood girls fi nished third and the boys sixth. “The TAAC is a very strong track league. Most of the schools have competitors who are regional qualifi ers and state qualifi ers. It’s always fun to see that kind of competi-tion at the end of the season,” Lewin said.

The girls won the championship on the strength of seniors Trinity Fowler and Olivia Randall, while the boys are led by seniors Jon Lucas and Joey Heise, ju-nior Anthony Williams and sophomores Demond Marks and Jay Moten.

Last week, Fowler defended her league championship in four events, including the 400 (1:01.83), 800 (2:26.58), 1600 (5:34.73) and 3200 (12:30.58). She repeated as TAAC Female Athlete of the Year.

This was nothing completely new for Fowler, who was the district and regional champion in the 800 as a junior and fi n-ished second at the state meet. She holds the school record in the 800, 1600, 3200, 4x800 and 4x400. Lewin says she has al-

Every athlete contributes to Rangers’ championship

ready signed to run cross country and track for NCAA Division I Bowling Green State University.

Freshman Olivia Cox adds depth to the distance program, participating on the second place 4x800 relay squad and plac-ing fi fth in the 800 (2:48.31). She ran good times in the 800 as an eighth grader, so Lewin knew he had talent joining the pro-gram this year.

The girls 4x200 relay team of Randall, sophomore Emily Bowen, freshman Randi Wilson and sophomore Tori Romstadt easily won in 1:59.96, defeating the second place

team from Ottawa Hills by over 12 seconds. Randall, sophomore Christina Zielinski, sophomore Ashley Rable and freshman Mia Austin won the 4x100 with a time of 55.56.

Randall hopes to get back to state, where she was part of a state placing 4x400 team in 2017. Lewin believes the relay teams have a strong chance to do well when tournament meets begin this week. “We expect to improve tremendously in our relays this season with the experi-enced runners we have coming back, plus the added speed we have seen on the team so far,” Lewin said.

In addition, Northwood freshman Alayna Avalos took the shot put with a toss of 26 feet, 10 inches while Wilson fi nished second (26-2).

Bowen won the high jump, reach-ing 4-4 while her teammate and classmate Alivia Rohloff fi nished second by clearing four feet. In the long jump, Zielinski won a championship with a leap of 14-8½.

Sprinters close to recordFor the boys, Heise won the 300 me-

ter hurdles with a time of 41.18, an event in which he fi nished second at regionals a year ago.

The 4x200 relay team of Williams, Marks, Heise and Lucas won in 1:35.7, less than three seconds off the league record (1:32.9) set by Toledo Christian in 2007.

“Demond Marks and Jay Moten are all fi rst year track athletes who have already shown signs of good speed and explosive movements,” Lewin said.

Williams won the shot put champion-ship with a toss of 38-7 and Northwood ju-nior Josh Croley fi nished second (38-4¾).

Lucas, who was a regional qualifi er in the 400 meter run last year, fi nished second at the league meet this year with a time of 53.62, just over one-tenth of a second be-hind Toledo Christian sophomore Trevor Wensink (52.74).

Top distance runners are junior J.J. Poiry, who fi nished fi fth in the 1600 (5:09.52), junior Antonio Garcia was fourth in the 800 (2:14.45), and Poiry and freshman Max Closson were seventh and eighth in the 3,200 with times of 11:45.96 and 12:00.82. “Max Closson was dedicated in his winter training and is running really well this season,” Lewin said.

Northwood junior Josh Hannum fi n-ished second in the long jump (19-0½). Lewin says the biggest improvement this season has come from Romstadt, Heise, Hammum, and junior Jimmy Jablonski, who demonstrated “dedication to their off season training, goals, and work ethic.”

The Cardinal Stritch boys were fourth with 51 points and Stritch girls fi fth, scor-ing 48. Stritch’s only league winner was senior Ashton Caryer, who took the discus title with a toss of 161-10.

In the 4x400 at Lake this season, Northwood senior Jon Lucas takes the baton from classmate Joey Heise. (Press photo by Russ Lytle/Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP)

I M Wnspirational essage of the eek: What’s Your Story?You often hear it said that only you can define what

success means to you. That is, the story of our life is

something that only we can properly tell. We certainly

rely on others to help us with the details, since no one

remembers their own birth, or can know what

happened while they were under anesthesia or

otherwise unconscious, but it’s up to us to create the

guiding narrative of our own life story.And don’t we all

want there to be a story worth telling when it comes to

our own life? While we are alive the story is

necessarily unfinished, but as we get older we begin

to see certain themes coming together. Whatever

your life story is about, make sure that the way you

live makes you a hero and not a villain. And like any

good story, the parts that tell us the most are the trials

and the struggles we go through. It’s easy to be calm,

cool and collected when everything is going

smoothly. The real question is whether you can

maintain your composure, and your values, when

things start to fall apart? Blessed is the one who

perseveres under trial because, having stood the

test, that person will receive the crown of life that the

Lord has promised to those who love him.
