COSHOCTON - A while ago, Ray Hardesty wrote a letter stating what he pictured a community center should be. The letter was passed from friend to friend and he was told he needed to make this happen. He didn’t think much about it, until events started happening that made it possible. Job and Family Services received a grant and the Kno-HoCo Ashland Community Action Commission provided a place. On October 1st, the Coshocton Community Center started operations in the Senior Center on Brown’s Lane. No services from the Senior Center are affected by this unique partnership. The community center uses the building in the evenings and on the weekends. In fact, many senior citizens are taking advantage of the classes and activities that are offered at the center. Hardesty is the director of the community center and said he is very excited about how well the

WEST LAFAYETTE – A few years ago Alex Mullen thought it would be funny to have students act out the song “Rudolph The Red Noses Reindeer,” but it wasn’t long enough for a whole play so he got creative. What Mullen, who teaches fifth grade at Ridgewood Middle School, ended up coming up with was “The Second Best Christmas Pageant Ever!”, a series of comedic sketches. The play, which features about 40 student actors performing skits based on “Frosty the Snowman”, “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”, “I’m Gettin’ Nuttin’ for Christmas”, and the story of the Three Wise Men, was once again performed by middle school students on Dec. 7. “We brought it back because I think it’s been enough years since we last did it,” Mullen said. “Actually, I think (principal) Mrs. Claxon’s son played our snowman the first time and he’s in high school now.” The production was put on by the Ridgewood Middle School Drama Club that includes students in fourth through seventh grade. “I like that this play is a bunch of skits and that we have the choir singing songs between each skit,” said Ian McCurdy, a sixth grader who plays the Angel Gabriel. This is his fourth play with the school’s drama club and this year he also is in the Christmas production at the community theater in Cambridge. “I just like acting out characters for the crowd,” McCurdy said.

His classmate Kelley Masloski is narrator number one in the play and she enjoys sharing the stage with others. “I like that as a narrator other people get to speak and then we do and you just keep doing that every now and then,” she said. Narrator number two in the play is sixth grader Claire Mayse. “I just like talking,” she said. Another sixth grader in the play is Alex Martin and she has the pleasure of playing Frosty the Snowman. “I like being in plays because you get to challenge yourself to be other characters you normally wouldn’t be,” she said. “I even had to be a lion once and that was a challenge, but really fun.” Martin plans to continue on with drama club when she moves on to high school. “You get to meet new people that are a grade or two above you or below you that you wouldn’t meet any other way,” she said. “You also get to see how nice people really are.” Mullen said the drama club at the middle school started in 2009 because a group of fifth graders asked him if they could do a play. “Some of the kids knew I was in a production at the Cambridge Community Theater and wanted to do a play here,” he said. “I got online and found a cheap silly one we could do. I thought it would be a onetime thing and be done, but the school loved it and so did the kids so now we have drama club.” Mullen said this production has truly been a team effort. “The parents and kids got the props and costumes and I just did the script, directed and decorated the stage,” he said. This production and the school’s club also shows, as Martin put it, that big people (the older students) and little people (the younger students) can work well together. “The fourth graders are in completely different places than the seventh graders, but they’ve all worked together and made this happen,” Mullen said.

4-H Shooting classes announced COSHOCTON - 4-H Shooting Sports classes will begin in January. Classes are taught by 4-H volunteers certified to teach their respective discipline. Classes beginning in January are beginning air rifle, position shooting air rifle, air pistol, and archery 1. Beginning air rifle teaches the basic marksmanship skills that can be applied to many other shooting disciplines. The importance of proper sight picture, trigger control, and breath control to shooting accurately are covered. All students will shoot off of a rest to increase the safety of the activity and assist them in shooting consistently, accurately, and develop a group of shots on the target. Position air rifle class expands on the basic marksmanship skills taught in the beginning air rifle class. Standing, sitting, kneeling, and prone positions are taught instead of shooting off a rest. These positions are used in precision air rifle, small bore rifle, and high power rifle competition. Proper use of the rifle sling while in a solid position and other shooting equipment are explained and used. Air pistol class builds on and continues with the basic marksmanship skills taught in the beginning air rifle

class. The safety rules are reviewed and explained. The students will experience more shooting in this class due to their previous experience. CO2 pistols are used, shooting off of a rest. Archery 1 class teaches the basic form, stances, and safety. This class gives the shooter a chance to learn the basics of archery, while getting a strong foundation in safety and shooting fundamentals. Equipment is provided for any class a youth signs up for, but they are highly recommended to bring their own safety glasses.

COSHOCTON - Peoples Bank Foundation, a non-profit corporation formed to make donations in Peoples Bank market areas, announced it has donated a total of $57,000 toward regional food pantries throughout Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. In Coshocton County alone $1,500 was donated to New Life Ministries Community Food Pantry. “Peoples Bank is pleased to increase its support of food banks and pantries in communities all across our region. The people who benefit from hunger programming and food assistance are our neighbors and friends,” said Todd Brown, Peoples Bank Market Team Leader. “More than 3.7 million U.S. households with children were unable at times during the year to provide adequate nutritious food for their children. This reality is consistent across the areas we serve. If you have a child, chances are someone your child goes to school with struggles to get enough to eat.” Since the inception of Peoples Bank Foundation in 2003, the foundation has donated more than $357,000 to area food pantries. The grants will be used by each organization to purchase food and support on-going needs. Peoples Bank Foundation contributions focus on charitable giving in four major areas: Community investment and economic development, youth and education, human services programs that improve the social needs of low- to moderate-income communities and individuals, and arts and culture. Organizations receiving foundation grants must meet those requirements and serve the markets where Peoples Bank

Wilson-King wedding DECEMBER 10, 1956

COSHOCTON – Kolton W. Wilson, son of the bride and groom, is announcing the wedding of his parents. The bride is Casey Sue King, daughter of Melissa and Jim Fahrney of Baltic and Chad and Laure King of Warsaw. The groom, Kurt Wilson, is the son of Teresa and Jeff Young of Coshocton and Keith Wilson of Coshocton. They were married on Oct. 8, 2016 in an outdoor ceremony at the Coshocton Sportsman’s Club. The bride wore a floor-length satin camo dress trimmed in white lace. Her attendants were Amber Grove, Abbie Barker, Kelsey Gross, and Lakin Colbern. They all wore green dresses with cowboy boots. The flower girls were their nieces, Rakenzie Welsh and Brielle King. They wore long white dresses trimmed with camo and sunflowers with cowboy boots. The ring bearer, Kolton, son of the couple, wore jeans, white shirt, camo vest, and cowboy boots. The groom and his groomsmen were Jason Lindell, Cody King, Ceavis Web, and Curtis Fry. They all wore jeans, white shirts, camo vests, camo caps, and boots. A reception followed the ceremony at the Sportsman’s Club. The couple and their son Kolton honeymooned in the Smokey Mountains for a week. They reside on CR 23 in Coshocton.

A former Coshocton resident was heading for Somalia where he served as an agricultural advisor in the developing African country. A vocational agricultural teacher in Scioto and Jewett high schools, he taught Somalians agricultural techniques and helped to develop a curriculum for teaching vocational agriculture.

DECEMBER 11, 1966 The Coshocton Chamber of Commerce hosted a contest to find the best dressed house in the area. On December 19, the homes of Coshocton were to be judged in four categories; door, porch, lawn and a combined overall category. The winners in each category received $15 and additional $10 originality prizes were also awarded.

DECEMBER 12, 1976 Tryouts had begun for the Footlight Players’ next big play “Oklahoma”. The ambitious musical comedy was the biggest project yet. Director Lucie Adger grew up in the west and she hoped to capture “how big that country is.” Set designer Carolyn Simpson also had intimate knowledge of the size of the west having been born and raised in Texas.

DECEMBER 15, 1986 The Columbus-based Wiley Organics was to be building a plant in Coshocton. The company, founded by Vincent Wiley and Dr. Kenneth Greenley, switched hands several times until ending up in the hands of Wiley and his two sons. The company produces and processes a large number of chemicals for the research, manufacturing, cosmetic and pharmaceutical fields. After considering several other sights, including Zanesville and London, Vice President David Wiley said, “Coshocton is really one of the best-kept secrets in Ohio.”

ture Committee Chairman Bill Shuster (R-PA). “I am proud that today, as one of the final acts of this Congress, the House voted to invest in our country. The improvements in the WIIN Act are critical regional priorities, like the long-overdue upgrades for the Upper Ohio River’s Emsworth, Dashields, and Montgomery locks and dams, but they also provide significant national economic benefits. An efficient transportation network is what makes our economy run, and ensuring America’s water infrastructure is brought into the 21st century will grow the economy, strengthen our competitiveness, and create jobs.” Shuster continued, “I want to thank Chairman Gibbs and my colleagues on the Transportation Committee, as well as Chairman Upton and the Energy and Commerce Committee, Chairman Bishop and the Natural Resources Committee, our House Leadership, and our Senate counterparts for their hard work on this comprehensive legislation. I strongly urge the Senate to pass this legislation and send it to the President.”

WASHINGTON, DC – On Thursday, Dec. 8, the House passed legislation that authorizes water infrastructure projects critical to economic growth and environmental rehabilitation. The Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation (WIIN) Act, passed with bipartisan support, makes critical improvements to America’s ports, channels, locks, dams, and other infrastructure. Building on the reforms of the Water Resources Reform and Development Act (WRRDA) of 2014, the WIIN Act includes the approval of water infrastructure projects started at the local level and developed in partnership with the Army Corps of Engineers. Additional portions of the bill improve drinking water services and infrastructure, bringing relief to distressed communities with failing drinking water services. “When Chairman Shuster and I worked to reform the way the Army Corps studies and completes water projects in 2014’s WRRDA, we also wanted to put water resources legislation on a regular two-year schedule. This provides certainty and confidence to the private sector, which relies on free and open water navigation to stay in business,” said Congressman Bob Gibbs, who chairs the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee. “The WIIN Act promotes transparency and fiscal responsibility while making the necessary investments in water transportation infrastructure.” Gibbs added, “I thank my colleagues for voting for this economically important legislation and I thank Chairman Shuster for his leadership and partnership on WRDA.” “Without question, this infrastructure legislation is a win for America,” said Transportation and Infrastruc-

Tinkering with old gadgets, riding on that old tractor. You lived to be outside, Under that big blue sky. We had special days and special times, From just a quiet moment, or a ride Or breakfast time at the truck stop, You made it all so special each time. The tales you used to tell, the grandkids They did believe. From Nascar races, to lottery tickets. But now you are gone no more to see. But I bet on tractor you can be found. Just look around your memories we will see, and above all, I know you are waiting, Just beyond the moon for me!

Deeply missed by wife and family.

Coshocton Christian School recently installed a new sign in front of its location at the Coshocton Christian Tabernacle on State Route 36. The previous sign was in ill-repair, and the staff and families saw the need for a new one in order to properly advertise the school’s information. The gifts of several anonymous donors made it possible for the new sign to be made.

Coshocton Lumber provided the wood, Tim Eberhard of Cross Improvements and Principal Stanley Zurowski got the sign ready to be installed, and Christopher Clantz and Bob Decker helped with the sign’s installation. Pictured from left are Christopher Clantz, Tim Eberhard and Bob Decker.

invited to come and eat lunch with their grandchildren and then visit their classroom. “Any time I get to spend more time with my grandchild is a fun time,” said Pam Marzluf, who was there with her grandson, Jack Ahonen. Also there with Ahonen were grandparents Larry and Linda Adams. “It was a nice time,” said Linda. “I think it’s great that they (the school) do this.” Ahonen also commented that he enjoyed having his grandparents to school for lunch. “It’s been really fun,” he said. For about 10 years, the school has dedicated two school days out of the year to invite grandparents in for a luncheon and a quick tour of their classroom. This year, 149 grandparents came on Thursday and another 105 signed up for the luncheon on Friday. “We get a lot of grandparents who return year after year,” said Principal Joel Moore. “They’re here every year with their grandchild grades kindergarten through sixth. It’s just a nice time for them to fellowship with their grandparents.” Bill and Jackie Ogle were there with their granddaughter, Brayleigh Cox, for the second year. “We love it,” said Jackie. “She’s in first grade and this is our second year coming. It’s nice coming in and sharing lunch

with her and then visiting her classroom.” Bill attended school at Conesville Elementary. “This is the school I went to, so it’s kind of a homecoming for me,” he said. “It’s just fun seeing them small and then watching them grow up.” Cox also said she had fun having lunch with her grandparents. “I really liked it,” she said. The luncheon is co-organized by Jillian Wesney and Jamie Wright and the head cook is Sue Adams. “If you knew what they did behind the scenes, it’s just amazing,” said Moore. Jeremy and Michelle Hogue attended

“We get a lot of grandparents who return year after year. ...

This is Bella’s first year. We were here with Zoey last year.” Bella said she had a good time with her grandparents. “It’s so much fun,” she said. Moore said the grandparents’ luncheon has become a tradition for many. “It’s one of those things you don’t normally think of as a normal school day, but we dedicate two days for this every year,” said Moore, “and every year, we get compliments on the things we do. It’s become a tradition for us.”

Career Center introducing program for 2017-2018 year “Some studies show this is the fastest growing field worldwide,” Winegar said. “They say right now there are two million jobs worldwide left unfilled.” Students who complete the NICS program will have a solid foundation to go on to college and major in areas such as computer science or networking. They also can earn three certificates that Winegar said are highly valued by employers. “If they get those when they walk out of here they will not be long unemployed,” Winegar said. “This is a great opportunity and the skills are very portable. The same fundamentals are used across most industries and it’s not a field that is geographically isolated.” Some of the career fields out there include: IT Technician, IT Administrator, Field Service Technician, Help Desk Technician, Network Support Technician, and Network Installer. “This is a tremendous opportunity for students and one more way we can help prepare them to be successful,” said Superintendent Rick Raach. “Everything is about technology now and it’s never going to go away.” Josie Sellers | Beacon

They can even be in three buildings in one day and spend time at their high school, with us and on a college campus. We also work with online academies, homeschoolers and students from the Christian School.” Becky is excited her son is considering going to the Career Center. “I went to a vocational school when I was in high school and loved it,” she said. “I feel you are more able to get help if you are struggling. There’s also more one on one and more hands on. It’s more like a family.” The Masons learned about the NICS program from Bart Winegar. He is the director of technology for the school and will be the senior advisor for the NICS program. Those who enroll in it will learn a variety of skills including: Computer networking (wired and wireless), computer systems – building, troubleshooting, repairing, the fundamentals of programs, experience a little bit of working on gaming programs, and network security.

COSHOCTON - David Mason and his parents were the first to hear about a new opportunity for students at the Coshocton County Career Center’s SPIN event. The Masons first stop at the Student Parent Information Night (SPIN) held Dec. 6 was to learn more about the Networking Information Computer Systems (NICS) program that will start with the 2017-2018 school year. “I like electronics and computers and seeing what’s inside them,” David said. “I also like that there are different opportunities here at the career center.” David, the son of Becky and John Mason, is a sophomore at Ridgewood High School. All sophomores in the county visited the Career Center the week before the SPIN event and picked three programs to learn more about. SPIN gave them the opportunity to bring their parents to the Career Center so they too could learn about the opportunities available to their children at the school for their junior and senior years. “All 12 labs are open and we have our four academic divisions represented here tonight so the parents can

Students enjoy United Way Week and crazy hair day

By Josie Sellers josie@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – Students at Coshocton Elementary School had fun last week raising money for a great local cause. United Way Week was held Dec. 5-9 and gave students the chance to dress up for the cost of $2 for the week or $0.50 a day and enjoy yummy treats at lunch for just $0.50. Pajama day, which was Monday, Dec. 5, was a favorite for kindergarten students Aubree Bantum, Abigail Un-

kefer and Jaylee Alexander. However, they also enjoyed crazy hair day on Friday, Dec. 9 along with fellow kindergarten students Leo Laaper and Harmony Fisher. “My mom put a bottle in my hair and I’m Cindy Lou Who,” Fisher said. The school shared with the students that United Way helps to promote community service projects and its goal is to help children and youth succeed through engagement, strengthening and supporting families, improving access to health care and promoting financial stability.

COSHOCTON – Mike Burr was feeling pretty positive at the Swim for Cure held in his honor, but unfortunately a recent appointment with his oncologist didn’t reveal good news. “After conferring with our other oncologist they feel the spots on the lungs are cancer,” his wife Linda posted on Facebook. “They are not going Burr to remove the lymph node, the doctor said it is very deep and we are looking at a six week recovery period. They feel the lungs outweigh the groin area and they feel we really need to start treatment as soon as possible. The hope is the treatment will also work in the groin area.” Mike, the varsity boys’ soccer coach at River View was diagnosed with Melanoma earlier this year. Since then the River View community has rallied behind him with a Fight Like Mike campaign and River View’s varsity swim coach Kristina King carried the support over to the swim season with the Swim for Cure on Nov. 29. “There is no chemo for Mike’s type of cancer so we will be starting anti immunotherapy,” Linda said. “We hope to start in the next couple weeks. We covet your prayers, love, and support. The doctor wasn’t very optimistic but we serve a God who can and does perform miracles.”

Live Nativity brings the true meaning of Christmas to community By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – For 19 years, the Coshocton Christian Tabernacle has been bringing the true meaning of Christmas to the Coshocton community. Even before the church was built in 2005, the congregation used to do the program at an old John Deere building on Brown’s Lane. “We just want to bring the true meaning of Christmas back to the community,” said Jacque Wagner, coordinator of the event. Each year, the Live Nativity has 12 scenes depicting the marketplace, the tax collector, the inn where Mary and Joseph are turned away, the angel appearing to the shepherds, an angel choir, the wise men, and various scenes from Jesus’ life ending

with the resurrection at the tomb. The weather was so cold this year that most people were putting hunting gear on under their costumes just to keep warm. There were two shifts that went out, one at 6:30 p.m. and one at 7:30 p.m. so that no one was kept in the cold for more than an hour. “It gets trying as you get older,” said Ray Conrad, who is 79 years old and has played a wise man since the Live Nativity started. “When you’re younger, you don’t mind standing out in the cold. It’s not as easy as it was back then.” A warm meal was served to the participants before the event started.

CENTER: Partnership creates opportunity for the community FROM PAGE 1 center has been received. “In the month of October, we had around 600 people through the center. Although we don’t have an official number for November yet, we are sure we brought in more than a hundred more.” The center is operating as he hoped – as a place where everyone is welcome and where “Good Stuff Happens.” He said Monday evenings are a perfect example of how he envisioned a community center. There is a NA meeting, yoga class and a card making class. Later, AA meets there. “This is a great opportunity for those in recovery to hang out, make new friends and see there are other options for them.” He firmly believes in the center’s mission statement – “To provide a community learning, support and recovery center. In order to serve and engage individuals with dignity, compassion and respect, by sharing our community strengths through collaboration to resolve life’s challenges together.”

Not only is the center used as a meeting place, some of the most popular classes are the fitness classes. A fit camp is offered several times a week and a cardio drumming class is another popular option. The fitness classes are offered in the dining room, so the tables and chairs are taken down and set up again several times a week. Craft classes are also being offered. While most classes are free, the craft classes do have small supply fees. Game Zone is another fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Three gaming systems are available for use and many people are bringing their favorite board games and spend the afternoon in friendly competition. You do not have to pre-register for game days or fitness classes, but if you want to take a craft class, pre-registration is required. Outside, a bocce court was built by Boy Scouts and a small patio was added to the side of the building. Hardesty hopes to add a really unique item to the community center soon. “I want an indoor mini-golf course. I have

memories of playing with my grandparents and would love for children to have those same memories.” He said the course could be set up in the dining room and it stores easily in wheeled carts when not in use. Another exciting opportunity will be starting soon. The center has been certified as a Pound Fitness Center and Hardesty sent four people to Pittsburgh to be certified as trainers. This program uses a special drum stick to add fun and rhythm to an addictive workout. Most of the equipment needed for any of the fitness classes is available at the center, but the public is welcome to bring their own. Self-defense, sign language and hair and nails classes are just a few of the other opportunities available at the center. Chair massages are available on Wednesday evenings. Complete schedules are posted on the center’s Facebook page and are available at the center. For information, call the community center at 740-622-4852 or like the community center’s Facebook page.

THE BEACON 19

WHY GOD SENT JESUS CHRIST TO EARTH ON CHRISTMAS

1. BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PAST

You can’t go back, but He can. The Bible says, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8)

2. BECAUSE YOU NEED A FRIEND

Jesus knows the worst about you, yet He believes the best. Why? Because He sees you not as you are but as you will be when He gets through with you. What a friend!

3. BECAUSE HE HOLDS THE FUTURE

Who else are you going to trust? In His hands you are safe and secure - today, tomorrow, and for all eternity. His Word says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go pray to Me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:11-12 NKJV)

Genesis 1:27 “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” We have been made in the image of God. Psalm 8:4-5 “What is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? For You made him a little lower than the angels, and You have crowned him with glory and honor.” Think of this: God is mindful of each us. He thinks about us continually. God has crowned us with glory and honor. We were made for greatness.

G.K. Chesterton said this “Whatever else is true or not, this one thing is certain, man is not what he was meant to be.”

Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” We have all sinned • We have failed miserably • We have made a mess of things • The graveyard is our destiny

Yet God is still mindful of us. Yet God has pursued us. Jesus came as a baby, born in a stable, born into poverty. No one knew He was coming. No one cared that He had arrived. He was unwanted by the world. He came and lived and died a sinless life so we could become the sons of God.

GOD HAS DONE IT ALL

We told him to leave us alone and that we do not need Him. Yet God sent Jesus Christ to come and save us from our sins and from ourselves. God made us and loves us and pursues us and will not stop loving us in spite of our sinfulness. At Christmas we learn how much God loves us and there is nothing more important than that. Respond to God’s gift to you this Christmas.

If you’d like to begin a personal relationship with Jesus today, please pray this prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for dying on the cross for me. I recognize that You are the true Son of God, sent to the earth to pay the full price for all of our sins. I believe that You were raised from the dead. You are God Almighty, and I surrender to Your Lordship. I am sorry that I have lived my life apart from You. Please forgive me for thinking that my life could have true meaning without You. I turn from my sins and choose to follow You. I give You my hurts and fears, my unforgiveness, my pride, my greed and all the garbage from my past. Thank You that I can start my life over again with You. I ask this in Your name. Amen.

Paid For By Your Friends at NEW LIFE MINISTRIES 727 South 7th Street Sunday Morning Service Time 10:00 AM Sunday Evening Service Time 6:00 PM “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7 0017_121416

Poster contest winners named Interim recognized CAMBRIDGE – Senator Troy Balderson sent Interim HealthCare a letter on behalf of the members of the Senate of the 131st General Assembly of Ohio, to pay tribute to Interim HealthCare of Cambridge on receiving HomeCare Elite status for 2016 from ABILITY Network and DecisionHealth. Interim HealthCare of Cambridge is deserving of recognition, for it has attained a remarkable record of service to the area. The facility has been designated among the HomeCare Elite for the seventh consecutive year and was further honored as a Top 500 home care provider for the second consecutive year, and it also gained a five star quality rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. These prestigious accolades are a justifiable source of pride and an outstanding reflection not only on the institution itself but also on its astute management, on its hard working staff and volunteers, and on the community. “Over the years, Interim HealthCare of Cambridge has enhanced the quality of life within the surrounding area, helping innumerable people achieve optimum health, and its generous contributions have earned it the gratitude and respect of many,” Balderson said. “We are certain that as this worthy establishment continues its dedication to service, it will uphold the tradition of excellence that has long been its hallmark. Thus, with great pleasure, we commend Interim HealthCare of Cambridge on its recent accolades and extend best wishes for ongoing success.” Contributed | Beacon

Gibbs supports a pay raise for U.S. troops and a commitment to allies WASHINGTON, DC – On Friday, Dec. 2, the House passed the final bill that fully funds the Department of Defense, gives U.S. service members a pay raise, and ensures America lives up to our commitments to allies. The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) provides our military with the training, equipment, and troop levels necessary to meet any threat and to keep America safe. Service members will get a 2.1% pay raise while funding for maintenance of military facilities is increased. Additionally, American air superiority will be bolstered with the acquisition of multiple strike fighter aircraft, helicopters, and transport planes. The NDAA bill also implements reforms to the military health system and procurement procedures in an effort to increase efficiency and operate as responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars. The defense funding legislation also guarantees our commitment to allies facing the threat of terrorism and expansionist regimes. Multiple cooperative defense programs with Israel are funded

above the President’s request while Iraqi Security Forces will continue to receive training to assist the United States and its allies in combatting ISIS. Additionally, $350 million is provided for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative in an effort to train and equip the Ukrainian military against the threat and posturing of Russia. “We live in uncertain times, with the threat of terrorism, aggressive actions and posturing from Russia, and the Chinese increasing their presence in the Pacific,” said Congressman Bob Gibbs after voting in favor of NDAA. “Now is not the time to draw down our forces or shrink the Defense budget. This legislation addresses the needs of our military in terms of preparedness, facilities, and cooperation with allied nations. The safety and security of the American people is our top priority and I am proud to support legislation achieving that objective.” The same measure passed the Senate earlier this week and now awaits a signature from the President.

Presbyterians share Christmas musical

Lumber Company

COSHOCTON - Members of the Crusaders Choir will present the “The Noel Critter Motel,” a new Christmas musical for young voices, as part of 10:30 a.m. worship on Sunday, Dec. 18, at The Presbyterian Church, North Fourth and Chestnut Streets, Coshocton. Featured Bethlehem characters include Lydia Black, Gage Haines, Georgia Haines, Sarah Heading, Kiera McPeck, Courtney Snyder, Dannan Stewart, Sydney Stewart, Ethan Swigert, Lukas Sycks, and Debra Taylor. The stage director and choreographer is Erin R. Jobes, the church’s director of Christian education, and Charles R. Snyder is the musical director. It’s not just another day in the Tiny Bit of Heaven Motel (actually a stable behind a small inn), which is completely run by animals. Their strict “no humans allowed” policy is about to be violated as the Innkeeper allows a young couple to stay in the stable. Maybe the critters will learn that their “no human” policy is for the birds with the presence of a Baby who will change the world. Other musical leadership that day will be provided by Moving Spirit, a men’s octet; Cantaré, a women’s sextet; Westminster Ringers handbell choir, and Alice M. Hoover, organist. The Reverend Jonathan T. Carlisle is the pastor and Sherri Lawrence will serve as liturgist. All are invited to join in this worship celebration. Preschool childcare will be provided and ample parking is available.

Coshocton residence has Christmas lights synced to music By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – Nothing gets you in the Christmas spirit more than driving around and looking at all the beautiful Christmas lights that people have used to decorate their homes and yards. But there is one house on Evergreen Park Avenue in Coshocton that takes Christmas lights to the next level. For the second consecutive year, Travis and Erin Slaughter have synced their Christmas lights to music on the radio. People who drive by the Slaughter’s residence are encouraged to tune in to 107.1 to hear your favorite Christmas songs synced to the flashing lights that grace the Slaughter’s yard. “Her (Erin’s) nephew saw Christmas lights with music on YouTube the year before and I said, just watch, I’ll do that next year,” said Travis. “It turned into a year-long project in the basement.” Travis started working on his light display in December of 2014 and it premiered in December of 2015. Most of his spare time is spent down in the basement soldering circuit boards and getting the music synced with each flash of the lights. The Slaughters have an FM transmitter and are able to broadcast Christmas songs to 107.1 that should come in on your radio just past Coshocton High School.

“I program each beat of the song to a flash of light, so it’s very time consuming,” said Travis. When all is said and done, Travis said he has about 900 hours invested in his Christmas light display. “I have an internal alarm clock,” said Travis. “I’m up at 1 a.m. during the week for work, so on the weekends, I’m up early anyways, so I found something to fill the time. By the time she (Erin) gets up in the morning, I’m already working downstairs.” Each year, Travis hopes to improve his light show. This year, he added a scrolling screen that broadcasts different messages. Travis said he hopes to expand that next year where people who drive by can text messages to a certain number and have it displayed on the screen. Travis gets most of his Christmas lights through group buys throughout the year. His Christmas light show runs on two outlets and powers about 1,000 watts. He says the neighbors don’t complain and some begin asking right after Thanksgiving when his Christmas display is going to start. “You don’t actually hear the music unless you turn on the radio,” said Travis. “So the music isn’t blaring in the neighborhood. But the lights are really bright, and they’re flashing, but the neighbors don’t complain.” The show begins every night at about 5:15 p.m. and runs until 9 p.m. weekdays and 10 p.m. on weekends. On Christmas Eve, the Slaughters leave the lights on all

night and the whole neighborhood lines the road with milk jugs with candles inside. “Last year, it was awesome to look out the window and see bumper-to-bumper headlights all around the neighborhood,” said Erin. “We’ve had people stop out front and ask on Facebook. Everyone comments how much their kids like it.” Although the display is mostly Travis’ project, Erin said she enjoys seeing the lights. “She supports my Christmas lights addiction,” said Travis. There are about 30 songs programed on the Slaughters’ FM transmitter with five or six songs playing in a loop per night. The display takes a couple of days to put up and will be taken down in January.

Jingle Bell Jangle 5K fun for all By Jen Jones

COSHOCTON - Despite the frigid temperatures, more than 60 runners, young and older, showed up for the second Jingle Bell Jangle 5K on Saturday, Dec. 10. Many were dressed in holiday outfits and everyone was full of the Christmas spirit and eager to run around the lit path through Lake Park. DK Races sponsored the race and this year, they partnered with the Coshocton County Fire Fighters Toy Chest to help children in our area have a merrier holiday. Part of the registration fee from each runner will be donated to the toy chest and anyone who came to the event could make a monetary donation or drop off a toy for the chest. Santa was there to thank everyone for helping. Dustin Haywood and Kelly Treat are co-owners of DK Races. Treat said they started setting up the course at 11 that morning and the biggest challenge was the deep freeze that settled over Coshocton this weekend. They wanted to make the course as festive as possible and lights were placed all around the course. “We just want to say a huge “thank you” to all of the Boy Scouts who came to help today. We couldn’t have done this without them and we really appreciate them.” Treat said they have been doing races for about five years and always try to make their races fun and festive. Each race has a different theme and she thinks so many runners come to the Jingle Bell Jangle race because

it is a great way to get into the holiday spirit and help others at the same time. Every participant received a jingle bell and an arm band that lit up to make the race even more festive. The area sounded like Santa’s sleigh as runners jumped up and down and stretched to get ready to run. There were even some four legged runners joining the fun and decorated with lit necklaces or reindeer ears. Aimee Neighbor said she loves the night races and the Christmas race is so much fun. “It’s festive and a great way to support kids in our area,” she said. She said DK Races always does a good job with their events and she knew it would be fun. She added hand warmers inside her thick mittens to help stay warm. Allen Angle was there with his children, Jillian and Brody Johnson. This was Jillian’s first race and even though she was cold, she was excited to be there and to get the race started. The run was Brody’s fourth and he really likes all the themed races he has been in. Angle said he brought the kids because they wanted to come and because the race was supporting such a good cause. Angle was dressed as an elf and both kids had plenty of Christmas clothes and decorations, too. Hot chocolate and cookies were waiting at the finish line for the runners. For more information on DK Races and their themed runs, you can “like” them on Facebook or e-mail them at dkraces@gmail.com.

Custom-made weathervane created for courthouse By Josie Sellers josie@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

Josie Sellers| Beacon

Brad Birkhimer (center) was asked to create a weathervane for the Coshocton County Courthouse. Pictured with him are his sons BJ (left) and Richard (right) who Brad said helped some with the assembly and the design, but were definitely going to help him mount it to the top of the courthouse.

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Courthouse received an early Christmas gift this past weekend. On Saturday morning, Dec. 10, a weathervane created by Brad Birkhimer was installed at the very top of the courthouse for all to see. “I was born and raised in Coshocton so I was very honored to be able to do this for Coshocton,” he said. According to Mary Beck, clerk for the Coshocton County Commissioners, the commissioners were ap-

Josie Sellers| Beacon

proached by Beth Clary who wanted to have a weathervane commissioned for the courthouse. Clary paid for the weathervane and Birkhimer donated his time and labor. “It was a way to give back to Coshocton for all the opportunities I’ve had here over the years,” Birkhimer said. Birkhimer is a former Roscoe Village blacksmith and now has a shop in Newcomerstown. The custom-made weathervane bares the date 1811, which Birkhimer said is the year Coshocton County was founded.

Twas the Night Before Christmas event draws a crowd By Jen Jones

COSHOCTON - When Our Town Coshocton decided to plan a Christmas event, the poem “Twas the Night Before Christmas” was the easy theme to choose. The classic was written in 1850 during the days of canal boats, a time that Coshocton and Roscoe Village love to show off and celebrate. Angie Brillhart, from Our Town Coshocton, said they wanted an event that would be fun for everyone in the family and still showcase the canal era that draws so many people to Coshocton every year. Brillhart said shopping local is so important to the area and they wanted to highlight just how many unique places we have to shop in this holiday season. “Since this is our first year, we are hoping to learn what works and build on that to make this an event that brings people from all over to see us next year,” Brillhart said. “We want families to experience an old-fashioned type of Christmas.” The event took place on Saturday, Dec. 10 and started at the Art Park on Main Street (former home of the Park Hotel). Children were invited to hunt for Christmas ornaments that had been scattered through the park. Special ornaments would earn them a bag of candy. Despite the cold, several families took advantage of the event and children squealed with delight as ornaments were found. The Coshocton Public Library brought a snowman craft for the kids to do and hot chocolate and doughnuts

Santa Claus reads “Twas the Night Before Christmas” to the crowd at the first Our Town Coshocton Christmas event held Dec. 10. were given out. The high point of the morning was the arrival of Santa Claus. After greeting several children, Santa read “Twas the Night Before Christmas” to the crowd and added several “Ho – ho – ho’s” to the story. He even shook his belly just like he did in the story.

Carol Watson brought her grandson, Clayton, to the park to enjoy the fun. She said one of his friends told them about it and, despite the frigid temperatures, they dressed like they were going sled-riding and came. Clayton found a big bag of ornaments and was happy he got to come. The ornaments they found were pretty, but what Sadie, 3, and Bryly, 4, Welsh really wanted was a candy cane from the tree they saw decorated with them. Dad Bryan said he and wife, Kellly, decided to come for the kids, so they could have some fun and meet Santa. He said Christmas is all about the children and the fun they have. Both girls gathered ornaments while they waited for Santa. Another part of the event was the Sugar Plum Shop Hop. Several downtown businesses donated gifts to be raffled off at the end of the day. The grand prize was a pair of diamond earrings. Most shops offered incentives at their store such as discounts on select products or BOGO sales. Raffle tickets could be earned by making a purchase at the participating stores or they could be purchased before the raffle. Our Town Coshocton would like to remind everyone that shopping local keeps your money in your community. When you purchase from a small business, you help the owner pay for sports or dance lessons for their children, instead of putting more money into a chain store owner’s pocket. Your money stays here and helps build a stronger community for everyone. Shop local this Christmas.

Hoop shoot lets youth practice basketball skills By Josie Sellers josie@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

Josie Sellers | Beacon

This was Aaliyah Better’s third year competing in the Elks Hoop Shoot. For more photos, visit www.coshoctonbeacontoday.com.

COSHOCTON – Basketball is a sport Aaliyah Better loves to play and the Elks Hoop Shoot gives her the opportunity to show off her skills. The 2016 Elks Hoop Shoot was held Dec. 11, in the Coshocton High School gym. Any boy or girl age 8-13 was eligible to compete in the free throw shooting event. Paul Bowman, who helped organize the contest, said participation was down. Better, however, has become a regular at the event. This is her third year competing and last year she went on to place third in the state Elks Hoop Shoot. “I practiced almost every day for this,” Better said. She plays basketball for the seventh grade team at River View Junior High School. “I like being out and shooting,” Better said. “That’s my favorite thing.” Her mother Ashley Better enjoys watching her play basketball.

“I love it because she loves it,” Ashley said. “She puts everything she has into it.” Bowman said the local Elks have held a hoop shoot for probably close to 40 years. “The Elks are good at giving back to the community,” he said.

Barb Wiggins received her service award from HR Director Zach McMorrow for more than 20 years of service with Interim HealthCare.

COSHOCTON - Interim HealthCare of Coshocton recently hosted an Employee Appreciation Dinner in celebration of National Homecare and Hospice Month. Employees of both homecare and hospice were recognized for years of service and entered into a drawing for various door prizes. “It truly is a collaborative effort from our team of home health aides, nurses, and clerical office staff to make everything that we do for our patients possible,” said Cindi Harriman, branch manager. For 2016, Interim HealthCare received the Homecare Elite Top 500 Award, ranking Interim among the top 500 homecare agencies in the country, and also received a five-star quality rating from Medicare based on patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes. “Interim would not have been able to achieve either of these two honors if it weren’t for our team of professionals dedicated to providing the highest quality care,” said.

2016 COTC Legends of Loyalty awards presented

Contributed | Beacon

Legends of Loyalty winners for 2016 posed for a group photo. Pictured from left are: Mike Cantlin, Stephanie Cantlin Athen, Barb Cantlin, Ron Alford (all family of

John Alford), Dr. Bonnie L. Coe, president of COTC, Scott Wilson, Barry Riley and Steve Riley

NEWARK - Two longtime employees and two longtime friends of Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) were presented with the college’s highest honor. The 2016 Legends of Loyalty awards were presented by President Bonnie L. Coe, Ph.D., on Dec. 6 during a reception on campus marking the closing of the college’s 45th anniversary celebration in 2016. The Office of the President established the Legends of Loyalty award in 2011 to identify and recognize dedication and commitment to the college. It spotlights individuals who have, over the years, made a significant

impact on the history of the college, have gone above and beyond their required duties and proven unselfish allegiance. The first award was presented posthumously to former Park National Bank President John Alford. His children attended the event and received the award on his behalf. Coe told the crowd that Alford’s support of COTC dates back nearly half a century. “To promote a culture of philanthropy within the bank, John Alford set an early example that was later emulated by many in the Newark business community. Mr. Alford offered bank employees the unique opportunity to participate in the Newark campus Founders Hall fundraising campaign through payroll deduction, and that was merely the start of the many successful fundraising drives that he spearheaded or participated in to show his support of the Newark Campus Development Fund (NCDF), COTC and The Ohio State University at Newark,” said Coe. “Mr. Alford was an early and generous donor to many organizations and because of the culture of community involvement that he exemplified, nearly a dozen Park National Bank presidents, executives and directors have supported the college by also serving on the NCDF board of trustees.” The second recipient is COTC Board Trustee Barry

Riley. Riley is the longest standing board member on the COTC fiduciary board serving as a trustee for 25 years. Riley has also served the college as an Ohio Association of Community College (OACC) board delegate for many years and is the founding trustee for OACC. “We have been fortunate to have Barry Riley as a highly engaged board member who is dedicated to COTC. As a graduate of Ohio State, a past employee on the Newark campus and now a trustee, Barry has a valuable perspective,” said Coe. “For his many years of dedication to this college and to our students, I’m honored to present him with the 2016 Legends of Loyalty award.” The third award recipient has been employed by COTC for 32 years. Mechanical Technician Steve Riley is the most senior member in the campus facilities department. “He brings performance above and beyond the normal duties which have earned him the trust and respect of his colleagues. His work ethic and positive attitude is above expectations,” said Coe. “Steve Riley is known as the ‘go to’ person on the maintenance team whenever it is faced with a particularly challenging problem.” The final recipient also has longevity with the college. Professor Scott Wilson has been a faculty member at COTC for 36 years. He is the most senior faculty member which gives him the honor of leading the faculty during the commencement processional. “In my eyes, there is no one who makes a greater impact on the student experience than the faculty,” said Coe. “Professor Scott Wilson is widely respected for his deep commitment to student success. He always makes sure to do what he can to provide support and then to refer a student to an appropriate office for further support when that is needed.” Recipients of the Legends of Loyalty award have their name added to a perpetual plaque that hangs in the Office of the President. A $1,000 scholarship is also donated to a COTC student in honor of each recipient, and a beautifully-engraved commemorative clock, along with a holiday wreath, are presented to each recipient. Central Ohio Technical College opened in 1971 and is celebrating its 45th anniversary in 2016. COTC is a fully accredited, public college dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible programs of technical education in response to current and emerging employment needs, as well as encouraging the professional development of students, staff, faculty and administrators to assist them in achieving their maximum potential. COTC is the only technical college in Ohio operating four full-service campus locations: Newark, Coshocton, Knox and Pataskala. Contributed | Beacon
