HELP IS AVAILABLE

For those Facing a Crisis this Winter During the cold weather, some residents will reach out to the City seeking help or opportunities to help their neighbors in need. The holidays can highlight the great number of individuals and families in the community who need assistance. Fortunately, Central Ohio is home to a number of organizations and citizen groups that ramp up efforts to help people in need throughout the year.

To help streamline the search for organizations, the City of Westerville maintains a list of civic organizations and community resources to connect residents with resources at www.westerville.org/heartoftheholidays.

Help is also available for people in an immediate or urgent situation.

Are you or someone you know facing crisis? Those needing assistance in Franklin County can contact HandsOn Central Ohio at (614) 221-6766 to be instantly connected to a bevy of resources for free. Find more information at www.211centralohio.org.

Need Smoke Detectors?

You Call, We’ll Install For Free The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) recommends installing smoke alarms in each bedroom, outside sleeping areas and on each level of a home. If your house is in need of working smoke alarms or if your smoke detectors are more than 10 years old, they need to be replaced. The Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) partners with the American Red Cross to offer free detectors and installation for Westerville and Blendon Township families. No questions asked and at no cost to the homeowner.

Community Partners Open Westerville Center for Family Safety and Healing In 2017, more than 76,000 domestic dispute calls for help were made to law enforcement agencies in the state of Ohio. More than 3,000 of those calls resulted in domestic violence in Franklin County; 212 individuals were charged in Delaware County. In Westerville, 48 cases of domestic violence resulted in a criminal charge.* Domestic violence is the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, and other abusive behavior as part of a systematic pattern of power and control perpetrated by one intimate partner against another.

It’s grasp on communities, including our own, is alarming.

Domestic abuse is pervasive around the globe, including the United States, where: Nearly 20 people per minute are victims of physical violence by an intimate partner, equating to over 10 million women and men.

One in four women and one in seven men in the United States report experiencing physical abuse by a partner.

On a typical day, there are more than 20,000 phone calls placed to domestic violence hotlines nationwide.

The need for resources and assistance for families facing domestic violence is strong. As a result, communities, health care providers, public safety and advocates are working together to better meet their needs and promote hope and healing.

In October, the City of Westerville and The Center for Family Safety and Healing at Nationwide Children’s

Hospital established The Westerville Center for Family Safety and Healing. Located here in Westerville, the center focuses on domestic violence counseling and advocacy services for adults. The Center also provides services designed to increase the safety and education of Ohio’s law enforcement personnel, and increase the education, prevention, and treatment available to the Central Ohio community surrounding domestic violence.

Westerville public safety professionals will provide and participate in training programs for first responders related to domestic dispute calls. Adults who need domestic violence counseling and advocacy services can call the main scheduling line at (614) 722-8293. In case of an emergency, always call 9-1-1.

“Domestic violence is prevalent in every community, including right here in Westerville,” said Sheryl Clinger, Director of Advocacy/Policy and Community Engagement at The Center for Family Safety and Healing. “We are grateful to the City of Westerville for their partnership and for helping bring these much-needed services to Westerville residents.”

Westerville Division of Police Chief Joseph Morbitzer says the establishment of the center is an important step in the City’s efforts to help connect residents in need with expert help that is close to home.

“One of the things we are hoping to achieve with this center is to bring in victims who would have never sought treatment and give them the support they need to change their lives for the better,” Chief Morbitzer said. “And, ultimately, we want to take a more proactive approach; bringing in other City departments to help us identify at-risk households so we can provide the opportunity for early mediation.”

TRACK CITY SNOW PLOWS THIS WINTER Day or night, when snow falls in the City, the Westerville Public Service Department springs into action to clear the roads. This City service is critical in keeping residents and first responders safe during snow and ice events. And new this winter you can track their progress on the interactive Westerville Road Warrior online portal.

The portal premiered to the public in the fall during leaf collection. During snow events, residents can navigate over to see what streets were treated in the last two, six, 12 and 24hour time frames, in addition to selecting specific roads for more detailed data.

The mapping system, which can be accessed through your favorite web browser, is powered by tracking equipment attached to City snow plows and leaf trucks that relay data to the online system, creating a streamlined flow of communication to the public.

Access the portal during our next snow or ice weather event by visiting www.westerville.org/roadwarriors.

RESOLVE TO RECYCLE BETTER THIS YEAR Westerville homeowners will likely receive larger, easier-to-move recycling receptacles this spring courtesy of the City and the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO). Due to its increased size and ease of use, the carts are expected to promote increased curbside recycling, supporting the City’s overall sustainability initiative. The carts under consideration will be delivered in spring 2019 and can hold up to 65-gallons of recyclables. They feature an attached lid, wheels for rolling and a handle for efficient transport to curbside. A smaller option will also be available for single or small-family users.

New receptacles mean a fresh start and this is the perfect time of year to examine old habits. Why not add improve your recycling habits to your 2019 resolutions list?

Even the simplest acts of environmental stewardship, like following the suggestions below, can help keep the earth healthy for future generations. Considering the growing concern for environmental issues in the world, it should be of comfort to know that making an impact doesn’t necessarily require strenuous effort on behalf of the individual, rather simple, consistent efforts:

LEAVE ITEMS LOOSE.

Well-meaning neighbors will do this to help ensure items are processed properly, however, it’s not necessary. In fact, it actually hampers the process as plastic bags are not accepted at recycling facilities because they can become entangled in the equipment.

NOT SURE IF SOMETHING IS RECYCLABLE?

Consult Rumpke, not the item. Most containers are printed with some sort of recycling symbol, but that doesn’t mean that form of processing is available. If an item has you stumped, visit www.rumpke.com for a wealth of information.

HAVE METAL CANS OR PLASTIC BOTTLES?

They need a little work before they hit the bin. Plastic bottles should be emptied and crushed with the lids reattached. As far as metal goes, aluminum cans, steel cans and lids are all recyclable, so are empty aerosol cans, so long as the lids and tips are removed.

Learn more about Westerville’s recycling and refuse program at www.westerville.org/service.

Your Winter Fire, Carbon Monoxide Safety Checklist According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), nearly half of all home heating fires occur between 5-9 p.m. during the months of December, January and February. The Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) encourages residents to follow these steps to help keep families warm and safe this winter: KEEP HEATING EQUIPMENT CLEAN AND CLEAR According to the NFPA, personal heating devices are the second most common causes of home fires during the winter. Failure to clean solid-fueled heating devices, like chimneys, is the leading cause of these fires. Failure to keep flammable items (like paper, furniture, etc.) far away from heat sources was the top contributing factor to home heating fire deaths. The NFPA recommends keeping flammable items at least three feet away from sources of heat and to keep fireplace ashes outside in a tightly covered metal container at least 10 ft. away from the house at all time.

BE AWARE AND PREPARED FOR CARBON MONOXIDE RISKS AROUND YOUR HOME Winters in Ohio can be tough, and many residents are prepared with portable generators. While these tools will come in handy during a power outage, they can pose serious health risks if used improperly. Exhaust from generators contains odorless carbon monoxide, called “the silent killer.”

That is why firefighters recommend keeping the devices away from windows and as far away from the home as possible. Home heating systems are the top contributor to carbon monoxiderelated deaths. WFD firefighters say it is imperative for all homes to be equipped with multiple carbon monoxide alarms to alert families in the event of an emergency.

KEEP HOLIDAY TREES WELL WATERED AND DITCH THEM WHEN DRY The NFPA says that holiday tree fires, while unlikely to occur, are more likely to be deadly than other home fires. When decorating, fire prevention experts recommend replacing any lights with broken bulbs or exposed wires and to remember to unplug the tree before leaving the house and going to bed. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), a dry holiday tree can ignite and burn faster than a newspaper. While it can be a bummer to take a dry tree to the curb after the holidays, it’s the safest thing to do. Holiday trees are considered yard waste and can be included with normal Monday collection. Be sure to remove all decoration, cut the tree into four foot lengths and tie in bundles.

WPD’s K9 Fiji Receives

DONATED BODY ARMOR The Westerville Division of Police’s (WPD) K9 Fiji has received a bullet and stab protective vest thanks to a charitable donation from non-profit organization Vested Interest in K9s, Inc. K9 Fiji’s vest is sponsored

by Greg Nobis of Delaware, Ohio, and was embroidered with the sentiment, “This gift of protection provided by Greg Nobis.”

Fiji has been a WPD K9 officer for four years, working with Officer Bryan Schwartz. A seven-year-old Belgian Malinois, she and Officer Schwartz have won multiple awards for alertness and focus among other competitive tasks. Since 2013, the duo won eight gold, three silver and four bronze medals at the Ohio Police and Fire Games. She has also been awarded two exceptional duty and one life-saving medal.

Vested Interest in K9s, Inc. is a 501c(3) charity located in East Taunton, Mass. whose mission is to provide bullet and stab protective vests and other assistance to dogs of law enforcement and related agencies throughout the United States. The non-profit was established in 2009 to assist law enforcement agencies with this potentially lifesaving body armor for their four-legged K9 officers. Since its inception, Vested Interest in K9s, Inc. provided more than 3,000 protective vests in 50 states through private and corporate donations at a value of $5.7 million dollars.

Protective vests for law enforcement K9 dogs are valued between $1,700 – $2,200. They weigh an average of four to five pounds and are custom fit to streamline the contour of the dog to maximize protection. The vests have a lifespan and warranty of five years. Fiji’s existing body armor was set to soon expire.

“Fiji is a working dog, and takes her work seriously,” says Officer Schwartz. “She’s clear-headed and able to socialize well, but she’s all business when we’re working. She’s strong, highly trained and very alert. But there’s no substitute for extra safety. On behalf of our entire department, I’m grateful for this donation, which together we’ll use to continue our mission of keeping Westerville safe.”

The K9 protective vest program is open to dogs at least 20 months of age actively employed in the U.S. with law enforcement or related certified agencies.

New K9 graduates, as well as K9s with expired vests, are eligible to participate.

PRIVATE/PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP

Brings Fintech to Westerville Westerville now hosts an innovative financial technology (that is, fintech) research and development program at The Point at Otterbein University, 60 Collegeview Rd., thanks to a first-of-its-kind collaborative effort between the Univerity, JPMorgan Chase, the City and JobsOhio.

The outcome of this unique partnership fulfills a specific vision in the City’s Economic Development strategy: connecting industry, higher education and local government to grow the workforce, foster innovation and connect Otterbein University’s well-prepared students with the education that employers need and customers use every day. This sends a message to companies around the world that Westerville is innovative and nimble enough to act quickly.

Every industry has been radically changed by the evolution of technology and the finance industry is no exception.

Fintech’s reach extends far beyond Wall Street to our very pockets. It shows up on our phones through mobile apps, works 24/7 to keep our sensitive financial data secure and much more. Now, JPMorgan Chase, a global leader in the industry and the City’s largest employer, has placed Westerville at the center of this movement.

“With these new programs, the state of Ohio, the Columbus region and our local community become increasingly

attractive for new investment,” said David Collinsworth, Westerville City Manager. “They could be anywhere in the world, but they chose to invest here. When the local, regional and statewide business community grows, we all benefit.”

The program involves the creation of three innovation spaces dedicated to fintech research and development at The Point.

JPMorgan Chase has committed to creating project teams comprised of at least 20 percent Otterbein students from various disciplines. Additionally, three JPMorgan Chase employees will teach four courses at the University including one business and one MBA course.

WESTERVILLE MOBILITY PLAN to Help Guide Future Decisions

Westerville’s ability to offer a variety of mobility options relates directly to the vitality of development and the community as a whole. This winter, City staff will present the Westerville Mobility Plan to City Council for consideration.

If adopted, the plan will help guide future decisions per considerations set forth in the Westerville Community Plan about how residents and visitors move around the City. The plan seeks to: Improve mobility options, making it easier to bike, walk, ride public transportation and drive in our community and connect to the region.

Enhance quality of life, making it safer for youth to get to school, the workforce to get to their places of employment and for people to move about the City in a way that is pleasing to them.

Support future and ongoing development, accommodating growth is key to ensuring Westerville can remain economically competitive and vibrant. See the Westerville Community Plan to learn about the City’s vision.

12

The framework is the result of months of thorough research and consideration. An open house was held during the summer during which residents had the opportunity to review information, ask questions and provide feedback.

The plan will take into account traffic counts, intersection analysis, multi-modal overlaps, street designs for the community, truck routes and the various ways people need Westerville’s roads, trails and sidewalks to function.

The plan will be coordinated with Westerville Parks and Recreation, the Recreation and Opens Space (PROS) plan, MORPC’s Regional Corridor Analysis, ODOT improvement plans and Central Ohio Transit Authority’s (COTA) transit improvements.

Find supporting documents and details about the creation process at www.westerville.org/mobility.

FIRST RESPONDERS PARK EXPANSION TO PAY TRIBUTE TO ALL FIRST RESPONDERS Expansion plans for First Responders Park (FRP) have been approved and will soon be underway, scheduled for completion by September 11, 2019 in time for the annual 9/11 Memorial Observance.

The park, located at 374 W. Main St., was dedicated in 2010 to honor the service and sacrifice of all first responders. It features the “C-40,” a section of steel from the north tower of the World Trade Center that fell during the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.

The existing park also features a sculpture called “The Crossing.” The sculpture honors Westerville firefighter David Theisen, who was killed in 1998 while battling a blaze in Crooksville.

The park has been eyed for expansion for some time, but the community response to the Feb. 10, 2018 deaths of Westerville Division of Police Officers Anthony Morelli and Eric Joering in the line of duty expedited plans to create a permanent police memorial. Add to that its compact size and proximity to the noise of West Main Street, expansion plans moved forward last summer.

Expansion features include a ceremonial lawn for larger gatherings, a fountain wall memorializing our fallen local heroes and a walkway that features first responder functions of police, fire, emergency dispatch and public safety chaplains. C-40 will remain in its place as a centerpiece to the park; The Crossing will gaze upon the steel from the southwest walkway of the park as part of the feature on firefighters and emergency medical service providers.

The finished park has been designed to provide a comforting place for a grieving community to pay respects to those who gave everything in service.

This project is supported by a generous $500,000 donation from the state of Ohio. Learn more about the project at www.westerville.org/FRP.

EXISTING CONDITIONS

The existing park has outgrown its space for important community events like the 9/11 memorial and flag retirement ceremonies. Gatherings at the site must compete with road noise from Main Street. The expansion will create more space for events and provide an atmosphere for quiet contemplation and reflection.

HEROES MEMORIAL FOUNTAIN

For the first time in the park, a water feature will be integrated into the site.

The gentle falling water against the rock will encourage visitors to stand close and reach out, near the names of fallen first responders embedded into the stone.

VIEW FROM MAIN STREET

Reducing noise from Main Street was key to accomplishing a more serene experience for park visitors and community events. The steel remains visible from this perspective, as do the state of Ohio, United States and City of Westerville flags. A pedestrian walkway greets you from this angle as well, to begin the walk into and along the site.

INTERIOR VIEW OF PARK

As a visitor is inside the park, there is space to gather or sit alone in thought. A center lawn is introduced with the expansion, ideal for ceremonies and events.

City of Westerville named a

2019 Global Smart21 Community The City of Westerville was named a 2019 Global Smart21 Community by the Intelligent Community Forum (ICF) on Thursday, Oct. 25. Westerville is one of only four cities in the U.S. to make the list, an annual compilation of 21 international communities leveraging their strengths in the broadband economy to advance economic opportunities and quality of life for citizens and the business community.

This is the first ICF recognition for Westerville. Fewer than 200 communities worldwide have been named to this prestigious list. Smart21 communities are eligible to begin a process to be named to the list of 2019 Top 7 Intelligent Communities.

“Our residents, workforce, and community partners can celebrate another distinction that puts Westerville on the map with internationally recognized cities. It’s the purposeful decision-making in technology and advancements in digital equality that attract people and jobs and won us this recognition,” said Todd Jackson, Chief Information Officer for the City of Westerville.

According to the ICF website, Smart Communities are those which have – whether through crisis or foresight – come to understand the challenges of a global economy and have taken conscious steps to create an ecosystem capable of prospering in it. ICF evaluates communities on the basis of their performance in six key indicators: broadband connectivity, knowledge workforce, innovation, digital equality, sustainability and advocacy.

Smart21 of 2019

ICF also recognizes communities based on collaboration among city government, private business and education.

City staff worked closely with representatives from The Point at Otterbein University, Westerville City Schools, Westerville Public Library, JPMorgan Chase and other key stakeholders to craft the nomination, which combines reporting hard data with qualitative narratives to demonstrate the community’s strengths as a hub of innovation and opportunity. Initiatives like the City’s WeConnect data center and fiber network were representative elements of this innovative approach in the Westerville application.

The announcement was made by Louis Zacharilla, ICF cofounder, during an event hosted by ICF Canada.

“This was a significant effort of telling the Westerville story and our intentional investments in innovation, digital equity and economic development,” said David Collinsworth, Westerville City Manager. “Becoming a Smart21 Intelligent Community puts us in this year’s class with world-renowned cities, including those in Australia, Brazil, France, Taiwan, India, Canada and more. We’re proud of this designation and will continue our efforts to stand out not only in the state of Ohio, but across the globe.”

Honor Your Personal Active Duty

VETERAN HEROES WITH MILITARY BANNER Beginning Monday, Jan. 7, the City will begin accepting applications from residents wishing to honor Westerville sons and daughters holding veteran status or who are currently serving in a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard).

The full-color, double-sided banners will feature the individual’s military photo and will be displayed on light poles in Uptown Westerville along State Street, between Home and Walnut Streets. Banners will be displayed during the month of May and again in November to coincide with Veterans’ Day. Applicants may purchase the banner for $130; reservations for space are accepted on a first-come, first served basis beginning Monday, Jan. 7 through Friday, March 1. Because of the projected popularity for this program and limited number of poles, applicants will be added to a waitlist for the next year if applicable. Part of the banner proceeds will support the Westerville Parks Foundation.

Applicants must provide a high-resolution digital image or scan of their military member’s photo(s). High-resolution means it is at least 300 dots-per-inch (DPI) for print quality purposes. Simply put, the higher the resolution, the more detail the photo contains resulting in an image that can be digitally enlarged to fit the banner.

After a banner is posted for the two-month terms, it will be returned to the individual(s) who purchased it the first week of December 2019. The applicant must be an immediate family member (spouse, parent, sibling, grandchild or legal guardian) of the service member.

Find more information about this program at www.westerville. org/militarybanners.

CITY CHARGES UP FLEET WITH ZERO-EMISSION VEHICLES

With the popularity of electric vehicles on the rise, it’s important for the Westerville Electric Division to understand how they work and their impact on the public power supply. That is why the City added two zeroemission, all-electric vehicles to Westerville’s public vehicle fleet this fall.

“We’ve seen a market shift with electric vehicle options becoming available at more affordable prices. We want to be ready to accommodate the changing interests of Westerville residents,” said Chris Monacelli, Electric Utility Manager.

Westerville took advantage of low unit pricing secured through the City of Columbus fleet bid to purchase two 2018 Nissan Leafs, and will receive a $3,000 rebate for each vehicle.

Kevin Weaver, Westerville’s Public Service Department Director, says the decision to bring on electric vehicles has practical benefits.

“Electric vehicles make a great deal of sense for most tasks that cities perform,” said Weaver. “Our uses are primarily short-range in nature.”

For more information about how the City’s new electric vehicles will be used, visit www.westerville.org.

Electric Division Drop-Offs Provide Safer Solution for Light, Battery Disposal The Westerville Electric Division is on a mission to make recycling holiday lights, light bulbs and batteries safer for residents and refuse workers by providing an alternative to throwing the items in the recycling or trash bin.

Holiday lights can become entangled in processing equipment, light bulbs can break and batteries can cause fires in recycling and refuse collection vehicles. All of these items can be dropped off at the Electric Division facility, at 139 E. Broadway Ave. for safe disposal.

Beginning Monday, Nov. 19, the Electric Division will accept strands of lights to recycle in exchange for a LED light bulb (limit three bulbs per household, there is no limit to the number of strands can be recycled.) Participants must bring their lights to the Electric Division, 139 E. Broadway Ave., Monday- Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. to receive new LED bulbs. Those not interested in an exchange can drop off strands in the marked bins in front of the facility anytime.

Light bulbs and batteries can be accepted year round. Just bring them to the Broadway Avenue facility and place them in the marked containers. Batteries must be sorted by type. Accepted types include lithium (rechargeable), lead acid wet cell (vehicles) and typical household (AA, AAA, C, D etc.) Please be sure to sort batteries by type.

AQUATICS

DEEP WATER AEROBICS

THE PERFECT ADDITION TO ANY FITNESS PROGRAM

No matter the weather outside, the Watering Hole at the Westerville Community Center has opportunities for fitness, recreation and social activity. One staple is the many aqua fitness programs available that take place in both the leisure and lap pools yearround. A popular class is Deep Water Aerobics which takes place in the deep area of the lap pool every weekday morning at 9:30 a.m. This highintensity class for cardiovascular, strength and tone is a complete workout for the purpose of flexibility, aerobic capacity and overall fitness.

Sylvia Robinson, Westerville’s newest aqua fitness instructor, began teaching as a way to keep herself on a health journey. She quickly discovered a gift for creating a welcoming and safe environment for those fearing judgement in the gym.

30

“I feel accomplished when people return to my class or take my suggestions and attend other classes,” said Robinson. “I feel trusted and feel like I have an impact.

It is more rewarding than anything else I’ve done.”

Aqua fitness classes are a great addition to any physical fitness program, by incorporating team exercises into class, participants begin talking to each other and create what Sylvia calls “accountability partners.” “I try to take time to talk to my participants, get to know them, make them feel welcomed and at home.” she said. “It’s important to keep the atmosphere fun but also give a good workout.”

For more information on the Deep Water Aerobics class offered this season, see page 31.

FITNESS &WELLNESS YOGA, MEDITATION AND MINGLE WITH WESTERVILLE PARKS AND RECREATION

Wellness embodies more than physical fitness alone and is often described as encompassing many dimensions including emotional, social and environmental well-being. A new class offered with Westerville Parks and Recreation is geared toward this idea. Yoga, Meditation and Mingle will take place at the Everal Barn and Homestead and offers participants the ability to experience historic beauty and comfort while engaging in community support and fitness.

During this event you will be able to concentrate on relaxation while meeting other community members. Take a retreat in your own town and experience an amazing Friday evening. You will meditate and practice Yoga to live music, taste healthy/gluten-free and/or non GMO refreshments and learn about essential oils (at your discretion).

Focus on creating a balanced approach to the new year and experience an event that will highlight YOU and being the best version of yourself. Start

your year redefining what is “enough� aligning priorities and concentrating on preventative health maintenance. Parks and Recreation is proud to offer accessible healthy active lifestyle opportunities to our residents and surrounding areas.

Through a NatureWorks historic preservation matching grant offered by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) in 1981 and 1998 and a citizen-driven PROS 2000 income tax increase in 1998, the Westerville Parks and Recreation Department began transforming the Everal Barn and Homestead into what we see it as today, a truly unique setting where heritage and hospitality meet. Everal Barn is quietly nestled on the grounds of 52-acre Heritage Park and is beautifully renovated.

WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH THE CITY? VISIT THE VOLUNTEER PORTAL Those looking for an opportunity to lend a helping hand in City initiatives need look no further than the Westerville Volunteer Portal.

From “elf duty” at Snowflake Castle to helping individuals who are differently-abled, and more, there is an opportunity for everyone to get involved.

“We cannot overstate the importance of volunteers in our community,” said Adam Maxwell, Director of Administrative Services, who oversaw the implementation of the portal.

“Residents donate thousands of hours to City programs each year. Their efforts are part of what make this community great.”

Maxwell says that while currently the portal houses mostly Westerville Parks and Recreation opportunities, it will steadily expand to encompass other City-affiliated volunteer groups like the Westerville Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association (WCPAAA) and the Citizen’s Auxiliary Resource Team (CART) through the Westerville Fire Division.

In 2017, residents donated more than 28,000 hours of their time to important City programs. Keep an eye out for opportunities to volunteer for a Westerville Parks and Recreation sports program. Visit www.westerville.org/ volunteer for more information.

ADAPTIVE & INCLUSIVE SECOND-ANNUAL

#ALLIN RECREATION FAIR Westerville Parks and Recreation will again host the #ALLIN Recreation Fair on Saturday, Jan. 26, 2019.

With the mission: “To connect the differently-abled community with art and recreation services in the greater Columbus area,” this event is sure to please.

Every child or adult who is differently-abled should be encouraged to pursue a hobby that transports them while keeping them in their comfort zone.

Recreational activities like sports, arts and crafts and trips have the opportunity to create excitement and friendship throughout their day. Not only do these classes and events release stress, but also build self-esteem and provide an opportunity to channel energy in a positive manner.

During the 2018 event, more than 150 individuals and families visited with 25 vendors whose focus is inclusion and providing recreational activities for individuals who are differently-abled. Attendees received information regarding normal daily care to sports to therapy animals. They even had a chance to sit with a few very special therapy dogs that loved the attention and getting their photo taken.

#ALLIN RECREATION FAIR Saturday, Jan. 26, 2019 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

Westerville Community Center 350 N. Cleveland Ave.

“It was a wonderfully organized event with lots of useful information about services; and it was clear that you devoted a great amount of time and energy to organizing it,” said one attendee. “Thank you for putting on such a great event!”

The #ALLIN committee, made up of professionals, parents and individuals who are differently-abled was formed after the community requested a location they could go to hear about many opportunities at one time. The event aims to bring in a diverse group of vendors. “This was one of the best fairs we have attended.” said one vendor.

For additional information on the 2019 event, see page 25.

YOUTH TEACHING TRADE FOR THE FUTURE

Trades jobs (contracting, wiring, carpentry and more) in the United States have traditionally been held by men, with women only holding about 9% of these jobs in the workforce. The word “Tradeswomen” is not even listed in Webster’s Dictionary; the Oxford Dictionary and Dictionary.com lists a definition as “...a woman engaged in trading or a trade, typically on a relatively small scale.”

Because women and girls so infrequently work in trade industries, Westerville Parks & Recreation is

proud to introduce new programming to expose girls to a skill-building education and careers.

“Girls in Trades” teaches the building trades, providing an opportunity to experiment with basic power tools such as a cordless drill and everyday hand tools.

Students will experience how to wire a lamp and learn how to create and read blueprints for a building project. Not only will the class teach a trade, it will empower girls to take the initiative in trade jobs and provide the ability to fix a leaky faucet, fill a wall with photos and simple tasks at home.

Girls in Trades is available to ages 12-18 from Jan. 26 through Feb. 16. See page 59 for additional details.

Know an adult interested in learning about trades?

Women in Trades is available this winter as well. See page 63 for information.

Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon representing women who worked in factories and shipyards during World War II, many of whom produced munitions and war supplies. These women sometimes took entirely new jobs replacing the male workers who joined the military.

HEMPSTEAD ROAD PARK TAKING SHAPE

A park in the southeastern quadrant of Westerville is not a new idea. The Westerville Parks & Recreation master plan (Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces -or PROS) that helps guide planning and investment long called for a park to serve the community and neighborhoods on the southeast side of town. When the property at 480 S. Hempstead Rd. near McVay Elementary became available, the City acquired it to begin plotting a course to fulfill that vision.

character the McVay family sought to preserve. Also included is a realigned entry drive and bridge, shelter, restroom, trail network, elevated play elements, nature play area, creek interaction zone and meadow as well as a parking lot for park visitors.

The design team will transition to development and construction phases next, which will take the majority of 2019. Construction is expected to begin in 2020.

Starting with a series of public meetings earlier this year, conceptual plans were developed based on resident feedback. The response from participants was overwhelmingly positive. The conceptual plan was developed to pay homage to the McVay family, the original landowners, who were deeply philanthropic and loved nature. Akin to other parks and green spaces in Westerville, the theme centers around nature while implementing play features and recreational opportunities.

The concept plan includes the preservation of mature trees on the property. Fun, whimsical and educational elements will maintain and embellish the site’s natural
