GAR Bean Dinner celebrates 149 years First year “bean stirrer” Jack Milligan (left) said, “I am enjoying everything about it, meeting and talking with people.” Milligan hails from Grace Buckberry Farms in Frazeysburg. He is working with Bryan Johnson, who has worked the kettles for several years. Milligan added, “You’re constantly stirring, there’s no art, no skill. You might want to
shave your legs if you’re wearing shorts – the heat will burn the hair off of your legs.” Veteran stirrer Chuck Johnson said they started the kettles around 6 a.m. A large crowd attended the 149th annual GAR bean dinner in New Castle on Sunday, Aug. 21.

COSHOCTON – Esther Gay has been doing a lot of quilting lately and she recently decided to donate one of her creations to Prairie Chapel United Methodist Church. “I just thought it was a nice thing to do in memory of my husband and son,” she said. “We all went to church there. My husband (Dwight) was a retired marine who passed away from Alzheimer’s and my son (Dale) built the Marathon station on Whitewoman Street. He moved to Kansas to run an RV park that his widow still runs.” It took Gay just a few months to make the quilt that is large enough to fit a queen or a king sized bed. “I work steady on them once I get started,” she said. “I was in the mood for brown tones so I started this one for the church. I’ve made all my grandchildren and children quilts. I’ve been quilting for 20 years. I just like to sew and different patterns really intrigue me.” Tickets for the quilt, which also comes with a matching little pillow,

If you’re still breathing, He can still do it.” He also said that was one of the reasons he believes God spoke to them about having the kick-off event in Coshocton. “It comes from the fact that some people remember the old me,” he said. “God made it humbling for me to

COSHOCTON – With so much violence, hate, and depression happening in our world today, many people go throughout their lives thinking that they have no purpose and no reason to be alive. Alan and Tamara Cornelius want to change that perspective through their Change the World Tour which will have its kick-off event at the Rotary Pavilion at the fairgrounds on Saturday, Aug. 27 at noon. “We’re here to explain to people that you have a purpose and God will give you a purpose,” said Tamara. “There is so much going on right now, so much violence and depression. God wants all of that to stop.” Both Alan and Tamara have had near-death experiences and Tamara has had horrific experiences with others who have both harmed and tried to harm her. Both acknowledge that they are here today because God had a plan for their lives all along. “That’s something else people don’t know,” said Tamara. “God loves us all. I didn’t think God loved me after the things that happened to me, but He did and still does. That’s the message we want to get across to other people.” Alan is originally from Coshocton County and was a member of the first graduating class of River View High School. He admitted that he has some things in his past that he’s not proud of, but that God has worked through

TOUR: Coming to Coshocton come back here. There are people here that need the hand of God.” The couple not only wants to tell people about God’s forgiveness, but that God commands His people to forgive others. “Holding a grudge doesn’t hurt anyone but yourself,” said Alan. “Forgiveness releases me from that bondage.” Tamara was able to forgive the ones who did her harm in the past and one of her attackers even gave his life over to Christ because of Tamara’s forgiveness. “When I heard that he had become a Christian, I just thought it’s amazing what God can do,” she said. The kick-off event will have free food, clothing, music, prizes, and raffles. The couple, who have
been in ministry for nine years, hopes to travel to all 50 states and be a witness for God. “It’s not about us,” said Tamara. “It’s about Him. We’re just His vessels.” Alan and Tamara have a non-denominational church in Columbus and want to reach out to those who feel they have no purpose in life. “We want to see lives changed,” said Tamara. “We want to see people coming out of depression and people following what God wants for them and be the best that God created them to be.” For more information, see their website at www. swmmag.com or call 614-203-0920.

OSU Extension Wildlife Specialist presents coyote seminar By Josie Sellers josie@coshoctoncountybeacon.com
COSHOCTON – The more we learn about coyotes the easier it will be for us to mitigate conflicts with them. This is the message Dr. Stan Gehrt, OSU Extension Wildlife Specialist, delivered during his presentation Thursday evening Aug. 18 in Coshocton that was hosted by the OSU Extension Coshocton County office. Gehrt has been researching coyotes for 20 plus years including a long term study in Chicago, Ill., another study on Cape Breton off the coast of Nova Scotia and some smaller ones in Ohio. “There are a lot of conflicts with coyotes there (on the island),” Gehrt said. “It’s rare for a coyote to attack a human in Ohio but on the island it’s seen on a fairly regular basis.” He believes one of the reasons they have problems with coyotes on the island is because they have limited food resources and have to live off of moose, which it takes their pack to kill. “I think that’s part of why they test humans,” Gehrt said. “We are interested in seeing if an increase in the snowshoe hare population helps reduce conflict with people there. Here they are well fed, extremely healthy and that’s the main reason why they have relatively few conflicts with us.” He couldn’t give specific coyote population numbers for Ohio and Coshocton County, but Gehrt did confirm that they are all across the state and in every county. “Their numbers have either stabilized or increased and there has been an overall decrease in their harvest,” he said. Gehrt said there are anywhere from 10,000 to 15,000 coyotes living in Ohio compared to Illinois where there are an estimated 15,000 to 20,000. What makes these numbers interesting is that coyotes are not native to our area.
“They are the only species that have more than doubled their range in the last 50-60 years,” Gehrt said. “In the last year they’ve also crossed the Panama Canal and its going to be interesting to see how quickly they spread into South America.” In Ohio male coyotes weigh an average of 35.8 pounds and females come in at roughly 29.4 pounds. Gehrt also said that coyotes rarely live past 13 years. Many of them don’t reach that age, but their population still grows. Gehrt has seen coyotes give birth to anywhere from five to 11 puppies. “When conditions warrant it they maximize their reproduction output,” he said. “When you remove the older females the young mature faster sexually.” Coyotes typically live together in packs of two to eight animals and when they are howling it can be for several reasons. “They do it to defend their territory,” Gehrt said. “They also are social animals, but they hunt solitarily. Howling helps them rendezvous and they will have several rendezvous sites in their territory.” He wrapped up his presentation by stressing that coyotes are living amongst us, even in urban areas, whether we’ve seen them or not. Gehrt gave the following suggestions to help lessen the chance of conflict with them: • Reduce feeding • Remove cover on property • Fencing • Manage pets • Harass coyotes “If you see one it’s an opportunity to educate them and instill fear,” he said. “They should always be afraid of people. Yell, wave your arms, if you can pick up something and throw it at them, but the last thing you want to do is run away.” For further information, Gehrt suggested people visit urbancoyoteresearch. com.

Precious Treasures celebrates 20 years
By Mark Fortune mark@coshoctoncountybeacon.com
WEST LAFAYETTE - Youngsters enjoyed making bubbles and playing various games at the 20 year anniversary party for Precious Treasures in West Lafayette on Monday evening, Aug. 15. The West Lafayette Fire Department brought two engines to the event, delighting the boys and girls. Director Francie Shuck, who has been with Precious Treasures for 16 years, said about being able to serve the
community for 20 years, “It’s amazing. I couldn’t ask for better kids or parents and families. Our daycare board is outstanding.” “We have some fire trucks here tonight to let the kids look around, we have a police cruiser and different kinds of carnival games, food, cake, the whole nine yards. We’ve been here a long time and we strive to provide good quality care for our kids. We are very appreciative of all the support that we receive every day.” Angie Smoulder said this about the care, “All three of our boys are here. It’s nice to have a place so close to
home and with such great care and attention for our kids.” Melanie Kunze shared that at the end of the evening the fire department hosed what was left of the bubbles off of the street for safety reasons and they let the kids help hold the hose. Nine year old Kaylee Kunzee said, “That was the coolest thing!” Precious Treasures is a daycare for children 6 weeks old through 12 years of age and has a preschool program for 3 to 5 year olds.

The O’Hara family of Polo, Illinois came to Coshocton to visit Mr. and Mrs. Ben J. Dogwiler and they brought along quite the marvel. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur O’Hara and their teenage daughters Pat and Jeri had a trailer with dining space and room for four beds. The trailer, inspired by a similar one in Popular Science, looked like an ordinary cargo trailer on the road, but once open, it covered 13 feet easily.
AUGUST 26, 1966 The story of Allan Abel, originally of Coshocton, was told in Trident Press’ “The Great American Hoax”, which detailed the biggest prank played on the American People since Wells took to the airways reporting on alien invaders roaming the Jersey countryside. The Society for Indecency to Naked Animals (S.I.N.A.) and it’s leader G. Clifford Prout, who was actually Abel, preached that we must civilize the animals lest their indecency cause an increase in high school dropouts, unwed mothers and crime. Abel, his wife and the doorman to their residence rented out a broom closet from an office building to serve as the HQ of their gag organization as it fought to clothe the naked animals of the country and build public restrooms for the animals to use. Its motto “A nude horse is a rude horse” was soon heard on the airwaves as Abel made appearances on TV and radio. Donations from across the country poured in to the little broom closet, all of which was returned by the trio of moral crusaders.

Muskingum University PLUS Program empowers students NEW CONCORD - High school students with learning differences can get off to a strong start on their college careers with the help of Muskingum University’s PLUS Program. Established in 1983, the PLUS Program continues Muskingum’s long-held tradition of individual attention to all students with the goal of educating them in the most supportive and successful way possible. Learning differences, including ADHD or other challenges in the areas of reading, writing, speaking, math, memory, fluency, processing speed and executive functioning can further influence an already challenging transition. “With proper support, students with learning differences, including ADHD, can and do succeed in college and beyond,” according to PLUS Program Executive Director Dr. Eileen Henry. The impact of the PLUS program on both students and their families can be profound, she added. “The PLUS Program is designed to empower students. Students discover what is possible. Using strengths and interests to ignite performance is essential to academic achievement and can ease the transition to college,” said Dr. Henry. “PLUS Program staff members guide students as they take on the responsibility for their learning and self-advocacy.” At the heart of the program is a PLUS staff dedicated to helping students with learning differences move through the many changes every new student faces, including meeting college expectations, balancing an increased academic workload, managing their time and becoming
part of the college community. “Our goal in the PLUS Program,” Dr. Henry explained, “is to nurture what is best in students, to cultivate student self-awareness and to support students in creating and using tools they need not only to survive in college, but to thrive. What we hope for, ultimately, is for students to create and use learning strategies and self-advocacy skills that will serve them here at Muskingum and for the rest of their lives.” To meet students’ needs, the PLUS Program offers numerous levels of service, from full and maintenance levels of support to an essential level, each offering changing degrees of help as the student grows academically and personally. “This is not a cookie-cutter approach to helping these students,” Dr. Henry said. “All of the resources of the program are geared toward understanding students and using PLUS Program tools. The one thing we all have in common is the desire for student success, as revealed and defined by each student.” For more information on the PLUS Program, log on to www.muskingum.edu or call the PLUS office at 740-826-8280.

Homecoming celebrations date back to 1911
Students may think that their proms and graduation ceremonies mark the last time they will spend time together on campus. But there will likely be many more opportunities for students to proudly wear their school colors and cheer for their alma maters. Homecoming parades, dances and sporting events offer opportunities for recent grads to return to the hallowed halls of their schools. The origins of homecoming celebrations may be traced to a 1911 football game at the University of Missouri. However, Baylor University and the University of Illinois also take credit for homecoming traditions. Typically homecoming is the start of a spirit week designed to boost the morale of students and athletes alike. Homecoming also may signal the first
game home after teams have been on the road. Homecoming celebrations are often built around football games, but basketball and hockey also have shared the homecoming spotlight. Homecoming enables current and former students to celebrate and display their pride for their schools. Celebrations may include parades, rallies, speeches, and dances. Homecoming festivities also may serve to have alumni mingle and network with others who have sat in the same classrooms and played on the same fields. Some schools elect homecoming courts, which include homecoming kings and queens, as well as accompanying princes and princesses. Students who are elected to the court are usually heavily involved in school activities. The court may participate

in a parade that includes floats and music from the school’s marching band. Homecoming dances tend to be a culmination of homecoming festivities at the end of the spirit week. Students are welcome to attend, and alumni from past years often show up as well. The dance may include a banquet, in which particular students are recognized for their efforts. Alumni may be asked to deliver speeches or hand out awards. Homecoming is celebrated across much of North America, among both high school and college students. It is a special time to rekindle relationships with one’s school and show off pride in one’s alma mater.

Church plans family fun to help support ministries
Beth Moore to share simulcast
COSHOCTON – The Upper Room Assembly & Worship Center treated the community to an afternoon of music and fun in hopes of raising funds to support its various ministries. So far this year the church’s food pantry has served 3,145 families or a total of 9,872 people. The Upper Room Assembly & Worship Center has its food pantry day on the first Wednesday of the month and its produce day on the third Wednesday of the month. It also has an emergency pantry where once in 90 days anyone in the county can request emergency food and be given 15 meals per person in the family at no cost. “It just keeps growing,” said Pastor Stan Braxton. “We give out about 3,500 pounds of food a month. We can sustain it, but we are only a body of 65 people and there is a lot of need in this community.” Another ministry the church has taken under its wing is M.A.D. (Make a Difference), which collects donated clothing and household items and then has free giveaways for the community throughout the year. It also helps people with baby formula and diapers on an emergency basis. The church also has a group to represent the American Red Cross Disaster Action Team. They respond to any emergency in the county for fire, flooding or natural disaster and the church also can serve as a shelter for the county. Braxton said his hope is to have one big event a year
DOVER - LifeWay Christian Resources is slated to simulcast well-known Bible teacher and best-selling author Beth Moore live from Chicago, Ill. on Saturday, Sept. 17. NewPointe Community Church at their Dover Campus is serving as a host location. The event, which is now in its 18th year, both challenges and encourages women to grow deeply in their faith. Join 150,000 women around the world for this live, global, Internet streaming event. “We are passionate to serve women who know Christ well but we’re also hoping they will join us shoulder-to-shoulder in the accelerated outreach effort that God is blazing in our souls,” Beth Moore wrote. “We are praying earnestly that women will come bringing the lost and the searching and the broken and the untaught.” Moore has authored dozens of published Bible studies, books, and devotionals specifically for women for nearly two decades. Her latest LifeWay-published releases are Audacious (October 2015) and Children of the Day (May 2014). Moore’s organization, Living Proof Ministries, is based out of Houston, TX. Dove-award winning musical artist Travis Cottrell, who also serves as worship pastor of Englewood Baptist Church in Jackson, Tenn., is slated to lead worship for the event. The Living Proof Simulcast will be held on Saturday, Sept. 17 at the Dover Campus of NewPointe Community Church. Doors open at 9 a.m. The event ends at 5:15 p.m. Tickets are $25 per person covering one full day of music and worship; sessions led by Beth Moore; lunch, snacks, local vendors, and opportunities for fellowship with other women. Tickets may be purchased at newpointe. org/bethmoore. NewPointe Community Church’s Dover Campus is located at 3950 SR 39 NW in Dover.

Warsaw EMS moves into new building By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com
WARSAW – Last May, Warsaw EMS moved into a new building located right beside of its former building on Main Street in Warsaw. The move was more than necessary as the squad had outgrown its former location that was their home since it was built in 1972. “It was very good for the time,” said Donna Carpenter. “It did what needed to be done. It was a roof over our heads and a place to eat.” Warsaw was one of the first squads to be established separate from funeral homes. Back then, funeral homes also provided ambulance services. When the building was built, ambulances were only small vans and weren’t as big as they are today. In the former location, there was only enough room for two ambulances in the bay and space was so tight that they would often touch the back wall and there wasn’t much clearance between the vehicle and the doors. “There’s a lot of history here,” said Carpenter. “When you’re moving, even though the building is old, we still ran out of this station first. This was our home at the beginning of our career. It’s kind of sad because it’s a part of your history.”

Construction on the new building started in September 2015 by Straight Line Construction and was completed in April of this year. Warsaw Village Council also meets in the upstairs portion of the building. “It took a combined effort of village council, the commissioners, and us working together to make this all happen,” said Todd Shroyer. “This shows what we can do when we all work together.” The building sits on two lots, one purchased from the Jackson family and the other was given to the village by the commissioners. The building cost $595,000 and money was raised by allocating $45,000 per year and then $100,000 per year of the EMS billing fund for the new building. Levy tax money can only be used for maintenance and operation costs, so no tax dollars were used in the construction of the new building. Used vehi-

The new building features a large meeting area, a large kitchen area, two bedrooms, a recreation room, a full bathroom, and a large bay area to house three ambulances. It even has an additional room that is not in use yet for future development. The building is also handicap accessible. “The long-term goal is to do something like this in Coshocton because we need it there too,” said Shroyer. At Warsaw, the station is manned by one two-person crew and Shroyer said the county receives on average 6,500 calls a year. They are planning to have an open house in the near future. “This building is a nice addition to Warsaw,” said Carpenter.

New Castle buzzes with activity for 149th bean dinner NEW CASTLE - The village of New Castle, located on U.S. Route 36 near the Knox County line in Coshocton County, celebrated the 149th annual G.A.R. (Grand Army of the Republic) bean dinner and the 100th anniversary of the Walhonding Rube Band on Sunday, Aug. 21 at McElwee Park. Regular attendees and guests alike enjoyed a beautiful sunny day and somewhat lower humidity as they enjoyed sandwiches, potato salad, pie and of course, beans that had been stirred in two large kettles over an open fire since 6 a.m. or somewhere around that time as the “official” start time is suspect. Local historian Ken Smailes and Chris Hart entertained the audience that had gathered on the hillside under the large shade tree that has no doubt witnessed dozens of bean dinners. Everet Beatty, who is the president of the committee behind the event, said, “This is about community fellowship. I had a guy from the Boy Scout troop tell me that his grandmother could make potato salad and he could make it with her guiding him on how to make it but it wasn’t the same because you couldn’t taste the love in his. And that’s the way with these beans – we have people come here that say, ‘I hate beans but I love your beans’, so I don’t know what it is – maybe they just taste the love in ‘em.” “And you look at the people in the line – they’re talking and laughing – I suppose they know them but maybe they don’t. That’s what makes this event worthwhile. It’s just everyone enjoying each other’s company and fellowship.” “We have someone here from Hawaii, someone from Texas and all around. The Lord has blessed us with a beautiful day – everything’s wonderful.” Beatty said, “I enjoy the fellowship more than heading this up. Someone’s gotta do it – you hear about the Medal of Honor winners – they said that they weren’t the most qualified; they were just the ones that showed

Leanne Reed, who will be 2 years old in October, joined the Walhonding Rube Band with her harmonica for a few moments next to her Grandma Janet Doughty, who has been a member of the band, along with her three daughters, Judy (Martin), Elaine (Ross) and Leanne’s mom, Ellen (Reed), for many years. The four, along with two uncles (Walter Doughty, Max Mercer) and several cousins and relatives are just one example of several families with multiple members and generations of musicians that enjoy performing with the band. up and did the job. That’s the way I am – I’m not the most qualified by any means. We just enjoy doing it and serving.”
“We have lovely help here, there are people that just pitch in – there’s a guy over here stirrin’ beans for the first time. We have other people that just help out when they’re needed.” “Allen Locke asked me about a break, saying that there are laws on this labor stuff – I said, ‘Well yeah, you get a break – every two hours – but we’re not busy now so take two or three of ‘em.’ As long as the lines are there we need the help.” “Next year is the 150th anniversary and we’re going to have the Chestnut Ridge Band in the afternoon – we hope to stretch the event out if we – and the food - can last longer.” Beatty said the menu will stay the same and the bean recipe will stay the same next year – we are not allowed to change it – Martha Young says no to that.” Everet shared the bean “recipe” – “It’s very precise, we put in about six pounds of butter and then six to eight or 10 pounds of onions – it depends on how much we get chopped up. Then four picnic hams and we start ‘em at 7 a.m. and cook ‘em until they’re done. Then we add salt and pepper to taste – we used 84 pounds of beans this year. Then we just cook and stir until done.” Karen Locke introduced the members of the Walhonding Rube Band around 1 p.m. with many returning “veterans” of the band joining in for the 100th anniversary performance of the group. Locke had several old instruments on display – including a drum from the early years of the Rube Band. Glenn Allen and Tom Fry were recognized as their fathers were part of the original band. A special plaque was given to Jim and Mary Ann Williamson for their efforts in working on the cemeteries in New Castle Township along with several other projects the couple has completed in recent years. Brent Young of Millersburg was crowned the 2016 Bean King.

Knox County to host fifth biennial event KNOX COUNTY - Historic old barns, imposing monuments to our agricultural heritage, dot Ohio’s byways, but so many barns, now obsolete on land no longer farmed or too small to house modern equipment, have been left to ruin. The 2016 Knox County Barn Tour on Sept. 10 from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m., the fifth of a free biennial event, produced by the Knox County Landmarks Foundation, formerly Knox County Renaissance Foundation, will feature barns whose owners aren’t following that trend, and experts who can help guide those people who might like to save a barn. The four restored barns are now a guest house, a furniture showroom and deli, a family party barn and showroom, and a woodshop. A working barn is still used for horses and hay, and the first floor of the furniture showroom barn is unchanged for animal care and houses a petting zoo. This tour will show just how useful and beautiful these iconic assets can be. The student-operated Kenyon Farm with many animals and a solar installation will be featured. There will also be a stop at an Amish blacksmith. The barns follow a route east of the college town of Gambier towards Brinkhaven, the gateway to Amish country. Begin the tour at the Kenyon Farm at 20245 Zion Road in the scenic college town of Gambier and receive a map or go to www.knoxlandmarks.org to download a map of the 25 mile round trip and get details on what when and where. After the tour from 6:30 – 9 p.m., Pete Shew and the Back Porch Swing Band will provide entertainment at a barn dance at the Mount Vernon Barn Company. A donation at the dance would be appreciated, and for every $1 donation, a ticket for the general raffle to be held
at the dance will be given. Featured this year is a children’s art exhibition and competition of third and fifth grade students, the traditional plein-air painters’ competition, and a show of renowned artist James Young’s barn paintings. Also new this year will be a storyteller, Bizzie Vunderink from Ashland, giving six performances. The tour also welcomes Ohio Prairie Nursery who will have information on prairie restoration and free seeds. All locations will have a selection of live music, food, crafts, animals, petting zoo, exhibits, farm machinery, mini-barn raising, face-painting, demonstrations, pro-
duce and a gardener’s sale to enliven the day and appeal to all ages. At the Kenyon Farm the Kenyon Dance Department will have a class presenting a site inspired modern dance performance. The event is held every two years on the second Saturday of September on even-numbered years. Thirty historic barns have been opened to the public for the one day event over the past four events. No barns have ever been repeated. There has never been a charge for this event which is held to celebrate the cultural heritage of Knox County. Any proceeds and donations, however, go to further the mission of KCLF and toward the ongoing conservation of the historic Victorian Italianate IOOF Building c.1858 at 112-114 South Main Street in Mount Vernon, the home and current restoration project of KCLF. The tour is also a part of the Ohio Open Doors event sponsored by the Ohio History Connection, a 10-day event. The website is www.ohiohistory.org. The Mount Vernon Barn Company will have its grounds open for the enjoyment of the walk to its forest spring, and all the sites have classic rural landscapes and views. Enjoy the back roads of Knox County and the unique small towns that this route connects as you both step back in time and explore the future of our rural landmarks. Contributed | Beacon

Calder, founder of modern-day Roscoe, remembered COSHOCTON – When Edna Jones was 15 years old, she first became interested in the history of Roscoe Village while trying to earn her curved bar for Girl Scouts. This love of Roscoe’s history has continued throughout her lifetime, and she believes that the 200th anniversary of the founding of Caldersburg should be celebrated. “That was the beginning of the village,” she said. “Two hundred years is a long time to still be here. I was born and grew up in Roscoe and the Montgomerys were friends of mine. I’m not willing to give up the history now.” The history of modern day Roscoe Village goes back to 1816 when James Calder platted Caldersburg and the small village produced wood, brick, and whiskey, and traded upriver to Millersburg and Mt. Vernon. However, Calder would eventually fail in his own settlement. Calder came to modern day Coshocton in either 1809 or 1810. In 1811, he paid $2.81 for a four-month business permit and opened a store in Tuscarawa, which is now Coshocton. He also purchased other lots in town but was never a great businessman and was constantly in debt. When James Renfrew entered the scene, Calder came to ruin. Renfrew came to America in 1810 and set up a store in Tuscarawa sometime later, although the exact year is unknown. The two businessmen believed they could both have booming businesses due to the in-
creased population, but unfortunately for Calder, this was not the case, and Renfrew proved the better businessman. “He had a business in modern-day Coshocton,” said Alice Hoover, historian. “He didn’t do very well. He owed a lot of people money and went bankrupt, so he came across the river and set up a trading post, and he did very well.” Fortunately for him, Calder had saved up enough goods for a store and built a cabin on the western bank of the Muskingum River the same year he founded Caldersburg. He was now in direct competition with Charley Williams who had come to the abandoned site of Goshchachgunk and established a well-known tavern and store. Williams didn’t appreciate Calder in that he also eliminated the need to travel on Williams’ ferry, on which he charged a large sum for the day of $0.25, to do business in Tuscarawa. Caldersburg was established on an old Native American trail and encompassed the lower end of modern-day Roscoe and parts of Hill Street and State Route 541. “It was a thriving town for a while,” said Hoover. “It was convenient because people didn’t have to pay the ferry to cross the river.” Calder sold three and a half acres to his son, James Taylor Calder for $10. The land was located on State Route 541 up to the red house at Clary Gardens. “Supposedly, his son built the red house at Clary Gardens,” said Hoover. “He then added the second story before 1840.”
Long time employees enjoy sharing Roscoe’s history By Josie Sellers josie@coshoctoncountybeacon.com
COSHOCTON – Seneth Darr wanted to be a teacher, but life led her to Roscoe Village and she wouldn’t have it any other way. “I’m a big softy and couldn’t be mean to kids,” she said. “Working here has been nice because I can teach history and not have to make anyone behave.” Darr has worked in Roscoe Village’s education department since 1993. “It’s a very enjoyable job because most people who come here are interested in history,” she said. She originally started as a potter and so did Stacie Stein. Stein began her career with the village in 1986 with the landscape department and then switched to the education department in 1987. “They had an opening for a potter and in college I had had some experience with that,” she said. “It’s been nice working here because you can interact with the guests and not just teach them. You also meet people from all over the world.
One time I even met the ambassador of Zimbabwe.” In addition to educating the guests about the history of Roscoe Village and the canal era it thrived in, they’ve also been able to demonstrate to them how craftsmen such as weavers, broom makers and blacksmiths made their goods. “We both enjoy working with our hands and making things,” Darr said. They also agreed that their favorite historical building to work in is the craftsman’s house. “That is where the weaver lived and we both like to weave,” Stein said. Darr’s favorite season in the village is summer time. “We do leisure tours then and people are out walking around,” she said. Stein also likes leisure tour season “They are better than guided tours because leisure is when you get to interact with the guests more,” she said. “There is more time for questions and they can SEE ‘EMPLOYEES’ ON PAGE 20

Like father, like son. James Taylor Calder went bankrupt in 1841. Calder continued to face legal trouble and was ordered to pay his debtors every 90 days. Another blow to Calder’s business was the arrival of William Barcus from Cadiz who opened a tavern and hotel, and Theophilus Phillips of New Jersey who opened another tavern. Finally, he was driven out of Caldersburg and moved two miles west of his establishment to make shingles after going bankrupt in 1828, even though debtors still owed him $3,000. Nothing more is known about Calder, how he died, when he died, or where he is buried.

Canal boat ride gives glimpse of past COSHOCTON – The speed of travel was once no faster than a team of horse could walk. This, however, was a big improvement for Ohioans. When guests visit Roscoe Village they have the opportunity to watch a video called “Ditches of Destiny” that teaches them how the canal era brought growth and prosperity to Ohio because it took settlers out of isolation and gave them a way to get their goods to market. According to the video, the canal was already working for the state of New York so in 1822 government officials authorized a feasibility study in Ohio to see how they could make it work there. After the study it was determined that two canals would be built. The Ohio and Erie Canal would run from Cleveland to Portsmouth and the Miami and Erie Canal would go from Toledo to Cincinnati. The 308 mile long Ohio Erie Canal passed right through what is now Roscoe Village and created a busy little community. In the book, “Roscoe Generations – Regeneration,” it states that the first canal boat carrying cargo was called the Monticello and it arrived on Aug. 21, 1830. It may have taken three and a half days to get your goods to market, but Ohio finally had a reliable means of transportation. However, travel stopped when the canals flooded or froze over. The railroad, which was a more affordable and faster means of transportation, slowly pushed out the canals and the flood of 1913 finally put an end to them. Today people can experience traveling on a canal boat on a restored section of the canal in Lake Park.
Lorle Porter, Ph.D., author of “Roscoe Generations – Regeneration,” explains in her book that Bob Thomas, head of Coshocton’s chamber of commerce, pushed for the idea of revitalizing Lake Park in 1966. At that time Americans were enjoying their family cars and leisure time was a big market. A leadership committee to make Lake Park a tourist attraction was formed and cochaired by Edward Montgomery and Jay Shaw in 1967. In 1968 the Lake Park Development plan was approved and the Coshocton Foundation became the custodian of the Lake Park Funds. Canal Fulton already had a canal boat that was built by volunteer carpenters, but Coshocton didn’t have that much support at the time so Shaw approached “Mad” Marshall Jacobs about building one for Coshocton. Jacobs, who was known for taking on challenges, accepted the task, but not without some drama. He often disappeared and had to be hunted down and brought back to work. At one point he was even living on the boat with his dog and wanted to operate it himself. The Coshocton Foundation was leery of his request and Jacobs finally gave in. He delivered the Monticello II on May 13, 1971 and it was dedicated on May 30, 1971. In May 1990 the Monticello III was launched thanks to the help of three local foundations and a $50,000 gift of steel from Coshocton Stainless. Lori Everhart said the Coshocton City and County Park District was created in 1985 and at that time they took over running the Monticello II. Before that she is not sure if the boat was operated by the city or privately run.
File Photo | Beacon
Everhart, director of the park district, said they also operated the Monticello III until Tom Roahrig started leasing it from them in 2012. This is now the Roahrig family’s fifth year operating the canal boat. “I didn’t want to see the history and tourist draw for our county go away,” Roahrig said. “We pulled it in the 90s with our horses so I had some idea of how it worked and what went on there. When they talked about closing it I just couldn’t’ let that piece of Coshocton history go away. It also helps Roscoe. People come to the boat and then go there or go to Roscoe and then come here. We work close with them and it really works out well for both of us.” Rides on the Monticello III last about 40 minutes and the boat departs hourly from 1 to 3 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. From Labor Day through mid-October it is only operated on the weekend and leaves on the hour from 1 to 4 p.m. Tickets for the canal boat ride are $8 for adults, $7 for seniors and $6 for students ages 5-12. For more on the canal boat, or to check that its departure schedule was not impacted by weather conditions, call 740-622-7528. The canal boat is located on State Route 83 North near the Lake Park office. Staff | Beacon

Stein said sometimes that information celebrates a certain time period, like the anniversary of the Civil War and other times it’s to celebrate an important person in Roscoe’s history. There also are special holiday tours. “Sometimes we just change things out and get new information,” Stein said.

The George LeRetilley House was built in 1853 and was the home of George, the son of James LeRetilley who was a successful merchant in Roscoe. It is still a private residence 163 years later. She has several then and now pictures posted on her Facebook page and also has enjoyed coming across maps showing the way Roscoe was laid out in years past. “I learn stuff every day and I’m trying to get people engaged because I want people to appreciate Roscoe,” Lainie said. “I hope people that live here realize what we have.

COSHOCTON – Tucked amongst the living history buildings, businesses and restaurants are still some private residences on Whitewoman Street. One of those homes, the George LeRetilley House, is now rented by David and Lainie Brillhart. “I love everything about living here,” Lainie said. “My husband is on the Roscoe Village Foundation Board and I’ve heard about Roscoe for years. David’s dad lived above the candy shop as a child and he lived on the basin and David proposed to me on the aqueduct bridge. I’m originally from Fort Wayne, Ind. so I had no idea about canals. It’s amazing work that they did and is the reason why Roscoe is here and thrived.” The Brillharts moved from their home in the country to Roscoe Village this past May. “We have our own private space, but if I want to talk to people I can walk down the street,” Lainie said. “We can eat dinner at the Warehouse or Uncorked and the girls across the street come tell me when they get new dresses in the shop. If I want to go for a walk I can walk out my front door and down to Lake Park. We don’t have to make plans for the weekend either because all our friends are right here enjoying music at the Warehouse or Uncorked.” She also has enjoyed discovering new information about her home and the village’s history. During her research Lainie discovered that the George LeRetilley House was built in 1853 in the Greek Revival style. She also learned that George was the son of James LeRetilley who was a successful merchant in Roscoe. “I really want people to know how special this place (Roscoe Village) is,” Lainie said. “I don’t know what Coshocton would be without Roscoe and I don’t think people realize that. I’m out every day finding something interesting in this little village.”

Both Stein and Darr love that working at Roscoe fills their interest in history and being creative. “Where else could you go work that you get to make things and learn more about history,” Stein said.

Nancy Jenny Olinger is just one of several teachers Dickerson, who teaches at River View, also will be rethat the Farmers Insurance Jon Ianniello ceiving school supplies. These teachers were referred to the agency by their friends and family. Agency was able to help out with school Contributed | Beacon supplies. Olinger is a third grade teacher at Ridgewood Elementary.
DOVER - When the alarm clock buzzes on Monday morning, waking up for another work-a-day week, sometimes we’d like to smash it with a hammer and go back to sleep. The thought of another long work week makes us want to pull the covers over our heads and go into hibernation. Why is it that sometimes work is such a drag? What happened to the excitement we felt when we started a new job or launched a new career? How do things get so stale in the workplace? What if it didn’t have to be stale and boring at work? What if there’s a better way? What if God has a plan for you that would make your job rewarding, fulfilling, and just plain awesome? We believe the Bible has real, practical answers for all of life – including your work life. Join NewPointe Community Church Sept. 4-25 for a message series that will help you find purpose in the day-to-day. As a result, you may even find yourself on Mondays saying, “TGIM!” NewPointe Community Church has five locations throughout Northeast Ohio including a Coshocton Campus which currently meets at the elementary school. Service time is Sunday at 10 a.m. Visit newpointe.org/locations for more information.

Local meats available at Coshocton Farmers Market COSHOCTON - Andy and Katie Lane have been selling pastured meats (pork, chicken and rabbit) and free range eggs at Coshocton Farmers Market on Main Street all season. The couple, along with Doug and Molly Wharton and Kathy Neal, own Hand Hewn Farm near Fresno. They all live in the big farmhouse that once belonged to Andy’s grandparents, with Andy and Katie’s two children and Doug and Molly’s three. It’s a well-organized business, with Andy responsible for the pastured poultry and rabbits, Katie for the laying hens and baby chicks and poults, and Doug for the pigs and farm maintenance. Molly does ordering, customer service and secretarial work, while Kathy is in charge of the gardening and accounting, along with the cooking. The children are happy to help with the animals and chickens. Hand Hewn Farm consists of 320 acres that were once Andy’s grandparents’ dairy farm. Most of it is rented out to other farmers, but Hand Hewn is slowly taking over more of the land. Their pork is forest-raised, with the pigs rooting in their natural habitat, where they eat acorns, hickory nuts and beech nuts. The 45 laying hens eat non-GMO feed and also lots of bugs and greens in the pasture. Hand Hewn raises pastured turkey for the holidays as well, taking orders to deliver the birds fresh to their customers. In addition to farming, Andy is an elementary art teacher in the Garaway school system and Molly is a practicing midwife. In the winter, Doug and Andy give

10 fun facts in time for fall Autumn is a season of many changes, with some of the most notable including the dramatic multicolored displays that occur just prior to trees shedding their leaves. It’s also a time of year when many people feel reenergized by cooler temperatures and spend many hours outdoors enjoying all that fall has to offer. Whether
A great way to enjoy the fall scenery is the Coshocton County Fall Foliage & Farm Tour. This year’s tour is scheduled for Oct. 22-23 and you can find more information by calling the OSU Extension office at 740-622-2265 or visiting http://coshocton.osu. edu. The tour highlights local agribusiness and fall color in Coshocton County and is free. one is collecting leaves, picking apples, exploring corn mazes, or driving the countryside enjoying the foliage, autumn is full of fun facts that can make the season that much more enjoyable. 1. Autumn begins on the autumnal equinox, which occurs on or near Sept. 22 in the northern hemisphere. This year, Sept. 22 is the day when the sun crosses the celestial equator moving southward. When the equinox occurs, there are an equal number of daylight and nighttime hours. 2. Since ancient times, autumn has been an important
File | Beacon
time of year for many civilizations. Autumn is a main harvesting time in many areas, and a successful harvest was once necessary for survival. Many steps are, and have long been, taken to ensure a bountiful autumn harvest. 3. Fall is a time when trees and other plants prepare for dormancy during winter. As autumn progresses and the hours of daylight gradually decrease, trees begin to close down their food production systems and reduce the amount of chlorophyll in leaves. Chlorophyll is the chemical that makes tree leaves green, and as it declines, other chemicals become more prominent and shine through in the leaves. That is why leaves change color. 4. Some scientists believe that global climate change can impact autumn colors, such as delaying the change in trees. Also, red pigments may start to decline as trees
use sugary fuel to grow new twigs rather than to cause red leaf displays. 5. Americans more readily refer to this time of year as fall, while the British use autumn. Both terms date back to around the 16th century. Prior to this period, autumn was known as harvest. 6. Much of the United States bids farewell to monarch butterflies in the fall. Each autumn, monarch butterflies migrate from the United States to Mexico and some parts of Southern California. They fly at speeds ranging between 12 and 25 miles per hour. 7. A study of U.S. centenarians born between 1880 to 1895 published in the Journal of Aging Research, found that babies born during autumn months are more likely to live to age 100 than those born during the rest of the year. Thirty percent of the centenarians followed were born during the fall. 8. Squash, pumpkins and other gourds are prominent in the fall. The largest squash grown on record belonged to Joel Jarvis of Ontario, and his huge winner weighed in at 1,486.6 pounds in 2011. 9. The many-colored leaves are not the only display one might see during the fall. The autumn equinox signals the aurora borealis, also called the Northern Lights. Besides the lengthening of nights and cool evening weather, which are great for stargazers, autumn is aurora season, according to NASA. That’s because, during the fall, geomagnetic storms are about twice as frequent as the annual average. 10. Full moons are named for the month or season in which they rise. The Harvest Moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox. Contributed | metrocreativeconnection.com

Extracurricular activities can benefit students in various ways. Academic clubs, sports and volunteer organizations provide students with opportunities to grow as people and make new friends while also teaching kids skills they will use for the rest of their lives. Many parents are aware that extracurricular activities can help students improve their chances of gaining admission to college. But students who choose the right extracurricular activities will benefit in greater ways than simply strengthening their college applications. The following are a handful of ways parents can help their sons and daughters choose extracurricular activities they can benefit from for years to come. Ask kids to jot down their interests. Students are more likely to enjoy and excel at extracurricular activities that align with their existing interests. Ask kids to jot down a list of their interests or anything they might want to try. Youngsters might want to learn a musical instrument even if they have never before taken a course on music. Once kids have listed their interests, look for activities that allow them to further explore those interests. Chances are there is a school-sponsored or community-based club or organization that will align with at least one thing on your child’s list. Encourage kids to have fun. Kids are more likely to enjoy and fully commit to an activity if they find it fun. While extracurricular activities can help kids grow as people and improve their image in the eyes of college admissions officers, kids will

get even more out of an activity if they enjoy doing it. Look for something that won’t interfere with schoolwork. Extracurricular activities can look great on a college application, but that benefit is lost if the activity interferes with a student’s academic performance. Some activities, including sports, demand more of students’ time than others, but make sure kids know that school always comes first. Ask around. Ask neighbors or school officials for recommendations to help kids who have tried but failed to find the right fit with regard to extracurricular activities. Sometimes it takes a little trial and error before a child finds an activity he or she is comfortable with. Fellow parents can make great resources, and school officials likely know of a host of clubs and organizations that kids may be interested in. Sign up with your kids. If kids are hesitant to sign up for an activity because they are shy, sign up with them. Volunteer organizations are typically family-friendly, and kids might be more likely to come out of their shells if they sign up with their parents or siblings. As kids grow more comfortable with an activity, they will want to get more involved even if mom and dad don’t have the time. Parents can employ various strategies to help kids find activities they can be passionate about for years to come. Contributed | metrocreativeconnection.com

Guide to end-of-summer sales The end of summer is marked by mixed feelings. Come the end of summer, vacations may be coming to an end as children ready themselves for a new school year. But shoppers know the end of summer is an ideal time to find great deals on an array of items. Although backto-school sales flood the marketplace this time of year, plenty of other sales take place in the final weeks of summer and consumers can save substantial amounts of money if they know where to look. Outdoor furniture As stores clear out their seasonal items, shoppers can score big deals on patio sets and other outdoor furniture. Retailers need to make room for snowblowers, rakes, shovels, and holiday merchandise, so shoppers are bound to find discounted tables, chairs, fire pits, umbrellas, and chaise lounges. Individuals can use this opportunity to update worn-out patio furniture and other seasonal items they can store over the winter. Camping/hiking equipment Only the most devoted campers camp out when the temperatures begin to dip, so consumers can use this opportunity to grab camping equipment before it’s gone for another season. Tents, flashlights, cooking gear, backpacks, outdoor

recreational items, such as kayaks or fishing tackle, water bladders, and heaters may be available at steep discounts. Grills Backyard barbecues are a staple of summer. If your barbecue or outdoor cooking equipment experienced heavy use throughout the summer, now is a great time to shop sales on grills and outdoor cooking gear. Travel Consumer Reports says that prices tend to drop on airfare, hotels and theme parks after Labor Day. Deals on luggage also can be had once summer travel season ends. Tuesdays are a great day to book airline tickets because they tend to be cheaper on Tuesday than other days of the week. Travelers can use this information to their advantage, booking trips to destinations that have super weather throughout the fall, such as Hawaii or the Mediterranean. Caribbean destinations also are good choices, though travelers should consider travel insurance to protect against hurricane-related cancellations. Vehicles Many dealerships tend to begin discounting cars when new models begin to debut in August and September. The longer a dealership holds on to a vehicle, the more money it tends to lose. Prospective car buyers may be able to negotiate a good deal this time of year, ultimately walking away with a brand new vehicle with a solid warranty. It’s not unheard of to receive a discount of 15 percent or more on previous year models. Spa treatments Many spas have begun discounting massages and facials at the end of summer, according to the International Spa Association. Shoppers can use this opportunity to try out new spas and save some money in the process. In addition to these discounts, bathing suits, summer clothing, lawn and garden equipment, and pool/spa items may be discounted come the fall.
