Cadiz council approves tax exemption for power plant SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 2018

By JD LONG

Jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Last ursday the Cadiz village council joined the Harrison County Commissioners in approving to enter into an Enterprise Zone agreement with Harrison Power LLC. Last Wednesday a resolution was approved by the commissioners who agreed to a 100 percent, 15-year tax abatement. e Cadiz ordinance was read as an emergency reading, which states in part, “on the increase in the assessed value of real and tangible personal property…” e emergency reading was stated for

“in essence of time.” e agenda also dealt with the incessant rains the area has had since February wreaking havoc on area projects. Village Administrator Charley Bowman’s (not present due to illness) report touched on the electrical issues the village has been experiencing uptown. “ey cannot do any work at this point due to the continual rains and rain collecting in the curb boxes and conduit,” Bowman wrote. “Once the weather dries out, they will be able to determine the nature and extent of the problems that are causing the street lamps to not function.”

Touching on Liming Road, council member John Vermillion asked what a scaled back scope meant in regards to fixing some flooding problems and the stabilization of its banks, which has been nicknamed “Lake Liming” for the water build up that occurs.

Council member omas Crawshaw said Bowman was worried about an adjacent hillside eroding that includes an eight-inch water line. “[If the] hillside goes out we’re going to have a bigger problem,” Crawshaw said, which was later confirmed by Bowman via a phone interview. Other items addressed were: - e East Market Street parking lot

will finally see its paving complete once the weather clears up.

- Maplewood Ave. project is not cooperating as problems with a catch basin or its outlet pipe as well as a clogged eight-inch storm line have been discovered. “e catch basin needs to have a new floor poured and a new line installed across Maplewood Ave. We are negotiating to have Mannik & Smith pay for the catch basin and line repair,” Bowman wrote.

- A manhole was discovered on Deersville Ave. where it was covered by asphalt. is along with parts of a sewer main are in need of repair. Bowman

said this work would be a part of a change order needing a supplemental appropriation.

- Bowman also placed a suggestion for changing the speed limit on Country Club Road. With the new school as a consideration, it was thought to lower the limit from 35 mph to 25 mph for 0.2 miles south of South Buffalo Street.

“Lowering the speed this summer following the end of the school year might be the appropriate time, and give those using Country Club Road an advance notice…that the speed limit will be lowered around the new school

Scio encourages cleanup, council members sworn in

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com SCIO – Wednesday’s Scio council meeting saw a slew of motions passed with a preceding message to the community’s landlords to help encourage their tenants to cleanup their properties.

Mayor Michelle Carpenter stated letters are going to be sent to all landlords reminding them that their property “is in their name and they are responsible for the property.” A list will also be provided of violations that need taken care of, as well.

“You need to help assist us in getting them cleaned up,” Carpenter told council.

Also, numerous motions were passed with the first one dealing with the PNC building where council has discussed moving for the past several months.

Council passed a motion Wednesday agreeing to lease the first floor of the building but

much work still needs to be completed with no timeline set.

Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh stated the floor needs redone plus the teller’s counter also needs moved. In the last meeting it was discussed that the building could be rented for $750 per month with half the utilities included. e lease for now is a tentative agreement where council will inform Tubaugh what exactly they want included in the lease, “once that’s done I need authorization to resubmit it and sign off on it.”

Also, Carpenter stated she was informed that the two buildings at the football field need advertised if they were to lease it out. A motion to place an ad in the newspaper was passed with Council Member, Andrew Turner voting no.

Council also voted to take ownership of two properties with one located on West Main Street and the other Grandview Street.

“Properties will be forfeited to the state,” Treasurer Trish Copeland informed council when it was asked what would happen if the village did not take over the properties.

“Well, they’re not being taken care of now as it is, so it’s only going to get worse if we don’t take ownership,” Turner stated where he then made the motion to take ownership, which was passed.

Another motion by Turner was passed concerning taking the chain link fence around the volleyball court for use elsewhere.

Also, two council members were sworn in, incumbent Andrew Turner to his new term and newcomer, Betty Gotschall.

Also, there is a water committee meeting taking place on April 30, at 5: 30 p.m. at the municipal building. And another reminder for cleanup day was given as May 12 from 9 a.m. to noon.

Samantha Trushell, Harrison County Farm Bureau, reads the American Farm Bureau selected book "John Deere-That's Who" to her son, Paxton. April 22 was Earth Day and farmers are doing much to support the environment. The book tells about Deere, who founded plows that would cut through the Mid-west hard-packed clay for farmers, making it easier to turn the soil. It has been read to first and second grade classes by many Farm Bureau groups.

Farm Bureau holds luncheon for Earth Day

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

In 1970, in an effort to support environmental protection, Earth Day was first celebrated and is now coordinated globally and celebrated in more than 193 countries each year as noted in a history of Earth Day story.

Rachel Carson's best seller, "Silent Spring" sold 500,000 copies in 24 countries in 1962 and began to raise public awareness and concern for the environment and now Earth Day is on its way to a 50-year anniversary in 2020.

Annual Career Center Advisory Dinner leads with positive notes HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | AREA

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

Harrison Career Center Superintendent Richard Schoene speaks at their annual advisory dinner last Thursday. Candidates running for the state representative position, Dan Milleson (D) and Don Jones (R) were on hand along with the various department heads giving updates on their progress.

CADIZ – e annual Harrison Career Center Advisory Dinner kicked off last ursday in front of a nice crowd and some promising talk. Superintendent Richard Schoene spoke of some improvements on the horizon, which included a canopy for the outside entrance, central air and gas heat, which drew applause.

Also, candidates for state representative, Dan Milleson (D), and Don Jones (R), both acknowledged the importance and benefits of an education at the career center while touching briefly on their political goals.

Milleson noted the plethora of employers at the recent Belmont County Jobs Fair exemplifying today’s demand for workers. He also noted the “boom and bust” of the steel and coal industries and how jobs from oil and gas are branching out in subsidiary areas.

“What we need desperately are jobs that are going to last,” Milleson told the audience as he touted the importance of getting more students enrolled into the Career Center “with no stigma attached.”

Jones spoke of fond memories of graduating from this very school,

which catapulted him to a degree from Ashland University, a teaching career and successful businessman.

He also touched on the fact that he and Milleson share similar ideas on certain subjects with education being one of them. But he called education being turned into a business and its bottom line becoming too important.

“Sometimes kids get the short end of the stick,” he said without blaming individuals within the education system while acknowledging the books do need to be balanced. He too noted the oil and gas industry’s fanfare in jobs but also the spinoff jobs created and the importance for Harrison County in taking advantage of that.

Jones also said something the public doesn’t normally here from candidates, especially in this age of divisiveness.

“You know, Dan and I are in a unique situation, Harrison County is going to win November the 6th whether it’s he or I.” Some notes from the various instructors were provided by Occupational Lab’s, Larry Bossell: Gloria Palumbo, Drug-Free Club Advisor: e drug-free club membership rate currently stands at approximately 60 percent. e

Saturday, April 28, 2018

aim of the club is to reward drugfree students with positive reinforcements and encourage drug-free lifestyles at an early age.

Richard Beatty, Connections Program Instructor: e freshmen (Connections) students have been working on community service projects for Sally Buffalo Park and e Harrison County Fairgrounds. e sophomore (Occupational Lab) team will be advancing to the State Knowledge Bowl Competition based on their placement in region 10.

Greg Guthrie, Welding Instructor: Students are currently preparing to take their American Welding Society (AWS) Certification tests.

Student proficiency rates on state competency tests were 86 percent. e program is addressing “soft skills” in addition to their welding skills to improve student employability.

Alan Albright, Ag/Industrial Equipment Instructor: e

Harrison Career Center’s Ag/Industrial Equipment team (comprised of David Zatta and Greg Fogle) placed fifth overall in the state out of 162 teams in the Agricultural Diagnostics competition. He noted that employment opportunities, both early placement and post graduate options, remained strong.

Curry Triplett, Hospitality/Tourism and Marketing Instructor: Spoke of several off site learning experiences and guest speakers that promoted career awareness for Hospitality and Marketing students.

Michelle Grant, Visual Graphics/Web Design Instructor: Students are competing in the state skills competition in Web Design in Columbus, Ohio. Noted that program enrollment for the 2018/2019 school year is increasing. Students are currently working on their design skills for the upcoming state proficiency tests.

Bowerston Women’s Club discusses Christmas in the Park at April meeting BOWERSTON The Bowerston Community Women’s Club held its April meeting on Tuesday, April 3, at the Bowerston Public Library.

During the business meeting members Megan John and Mandy Radich, who are also members of the village council, advised the group

that it would no longer be able to use the Community Building at no cost for the annual Christmas in the Park.

Radich cited the need for multiple repairs to the building as the reason for this decision. John explained that legal counsel had also advised that the building could no longer be used by any

individual, including council members, or non-profit entities, for free.

The rental fee for 2018 will be $125, increasing to $150 in 2019. The group discussed the matter and noted that the annual Christmas in the Park is currently a group effort with the volunteer fire department providing the

treat bags and Sunnyslope offering the hot chocolate, as well as donations being collected in a can at B&B Carryout. e excess expenses of the coloring contest, prizes and entertainment are absorbed by the club. e group considered asking other area groups for assistance and decided to monitor

collections and decide in September whether or not the group will have funds to continue with this event. Anyone who is interested in co-sponsoring or assisting with this endeavor should contact a club member.

In other business, the group decided to postpone the anticipated lasagna dinner until early October. A donation to the

son of Julie Newbrough, in the amount of $50 was unanimously approved by member.

A craft event was planned for the May meeting. Radich and John will be organizing a slate painting for the evening, cost to be provided prior to the meeting.

Following the business meeting refreshments were served by Mrs. eresa Love.

APPROVES

were steady at 3.00 for both March 27 and April 3.

Bowman also later included as a supplement to his report regarding the repaving of East Market Street (from the square south to the Village limits) at the end of May.

“Between the areas of the square and Holmes Avenue, ODOT will be removing the underlying brick surface and replace the brick with new base material. Between Homes Avenue and Van Fossen Road, the pavement will be milled and replaced. e remainder of

East Market Street will be resurfaced,” Bowman explained.

Prior to the paving project village crews are going to be replacing water service connections “where residents are experiencing low water pressure.”

“Anyone living on East Market

Street who is experiencing low water pressure is encouraged to call the Cadiz Water Plant at: 740-942-3884.” Bowman said they want this work completed before ODOT begins their project.

Bowman also sent notice for the

community to expect traffic delays during construction for the duration of the summer, which he said is to be completed before the school season begins in the fall.

The next scheduled meeting is set for May 3 at 7 p.m.

Court receives TCAP grant funds via commissioners

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The Common Pleas Court of Harrison County announced, via the commissioners, that they received $22,500 for the Targeted Community Alternatives to Prison (TCAP) grant to aid their community corrections program.

The commissioners, as read by Dale Norris then

appropriated funds for the following departments: Salary ($16,000), PERS ($2,240), Medicare ($232), General Expenses ($628), Program Expenses/EOCC ($3,000) and Workers Compensation ($400).

Also, upon recommendation from the Mental Health and Recovery Board’s (MHRB) Executive Director, Jayne Devney, John Carr, public health emergency

preparedness coordinator at Harrison County Health Department, was approved for membership to the MHRB board.

It was noted that Carr works with many departments as preparedness coordinator “in all areas of emergency response and preparedness.� “Mr. Carr has a background as well in criminal justice with employment in prior years at the Belmont County jail and

within the state corrections system,� as stated in the recommendation. “His current position makes him very familiar with the work of a public board.�

Carr’s term will end June 30, 2019.

Also, Commissioner Paul Coffland announced they had received word from Ohio Secretary of State, Jon Husted regarding the primary election held on May 8.

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

SCIO – Work continues at Scio’s ball fields and the water treatment plant.

Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh outlined the main points in his bi-monthly report.

- Electrical work has been ongoing all week. He said the generator has been delivered and also set in place.

- Work is being held back due to the constant rain that has left ground too soft at the Onslow Fields. He said damage has already occurred at a cost of $21,680, which has previously been reported. î “e project is still ahead of schedule.

- î “e College Street lift station’s new T-6 pump is on order and Tubaugh stated it would be cheaper for the village to pick it up themselves.

Manhunt leads to arrest of alleged forger

HARRISON COUNTY – Harrison County Sheri Joe Myers stated that his oďŹƒce has arrested Christopher S. Johnson, 46, after a manhunt along SR151 and County Road 51.

Johnson has been sought by several law enforcement agencies throughout the Ohio Valley for passing checks on a closed account and also for forgery.

His whereabouts have been unknown since last summer when he stopped reporting to his Ohio Adult Parole Authority oďŹƒcer. Since then he has been writing bad checks and forging checks at several local businesses in both Ohio and West Virginia.

Local authorities were notified that Johnson had acquired a vehicle in Martins Ferry without consent of the owner. A passenger in the vehicle alerted law enforcement and coordinated a meeting place with the vehicle owner. Prior to law enforcement arriving Johnson fled the area on foot into a wooded area o County Road 51 near Skit Road. î “e Harrison County Sheri’s OďŹƒce enlisted the help of the Cadiz Police Department and the Ohio State Highway Patrol during the search. A detective was placed in a private citizen aircraft to aid in the search.

with an “estimated cost to the village� at $140.

- î “e village was authorized for a one-year permit (20182019) for the sludge delivery to Dover. He said Kimble’s does require additional testing along with the EPA’s requirements for 2018.

- An estimated cost of $4,170 for the spare paddle wheel with a reduced estimate by $208 was listed. î “e life span for a rebuild is estimated to be four to five

years, according to Tubaugh. î “e rebuild will be held as a spare in case of an emergency.

- î “e hydrant flushing program begins in May of this year and ends in October of 2018. “A schedule will be published as well as a one call to inform residents,â€? Tubaugh stated in his report.

- î “e new Ford F450 is now on order. He said that due to the delay in the order, the

village would receive a 2019 model instead of the planned 2018 one. It is expected to be delivered in about 10 weeks.

- A park mower is to be purchased for under $1,000 by next month. î “e village is looking at three area businesses for the purchase.

- A High Street catch basin including a pipe has been repaired. î “e same work for West College Street is currently on. An overall 130 feet of pipe

is expected to be laid down upon completion. Plastic pipe will replace the old clay tile piping.

- Metal poles have been received by Travis and Collin Albaugh for the park’s backstop. Ed Crall is doing the work and the village is to purchase the chain link at a possible “cost share, or utilize the existing chain link fence at the football field.�

Christopher S. Johnson

Chris Johnson was spotted from the air hiding in the wooded area. Two K9’s from the Sheri’s OďŹƒce and Cadiz Police Department had been deployed. î “e K9 team located Johnson and took him into custody with the assistance of other oďŹƒcers on scene. Johnson did not actively resist when confronted by the K9.

Christopher Johnson was taken into custody on several outstanding warrants and has been interviewed by Harrison County Detectives in reference to other open cases involving him. Further felony charges are being pursued by Harrison County in this matter. î “e Sheri’s OďŹƒce would like to thank Higgins aviation and the Cadiz Police Department and the Steubenville Post of the OSHP, for their assistance in this manhunt.

Farmers are environmentalists. ere are so many more chemicals spread on green lawns than farm land many times.

Letters to the Editor End gerrymandering in Ohio With so little agreement between parties in today’s political climate, something amazing has happened!

Republicans and democrats in the Ohio legislature have come together to address gerrymandering—the drawing of political districts to favor one party over another. e result is Issue 1, an initiative which would amend the Ohio Constitution to give responsibility for redrawing U.S. Congressional district lines to a bipartisan commission. Issue 1 will be on the May 8 ballot.

It will require multiple public meetings before adopting a proposed plan for congressional districts, and any citizen of Ohio may propose a plan for the Commission’s consideration.

The Sports Guy’s

Tonkovich has big week as Huskies surge By: D.J. WATSON NH Sports Writer

FIRE & ICE

CADIZ – Head Coach Mike Valesko and his Huskies may be struggling against Mother Nature right now, but that is about the only obstacle that has been able to slow down Harrison’s club the past couple of weeks. e Huskies are winners of eight of their past nine, having picked up victories over a top-20 team in Div. II (Steubenville), and another top-20 squad in Div. III (Edison) along the way. It just so happens those two teams will be playing in the OVAC 4A Championship game this afternoon, a party the Huskies could have potentially crashed if the weather would have been just a bit more cooperative over the course of this impressive run.

Even though the weather has interrupted or altered the Huskies schedule over five times in the past two weeks, Valesko has one player who seems to have not let the everchanging slate affect him. Junior Logan Tonkovich is having himself a year. Not only did he toss seven shutout innings from the mound in last Saturday’s 4-0 victory over a solid Oak Glen team, he went on to blast a two-run walk off home run in the bottom of the eighth inning this past Monday against the visiting Edison Wildcats. In reality, he technically walked off both of those games for the Huskies, as he executed a line drive double play to end matters in New

R E P O R T A weekly wrap-up of what’s going on in High School, Collegiate and Professional sports

By DJ WATSON

Who’s hot?

1.

Logan TonkovichHarrison Central Baseball – the Huskies are winners of four straight and eight of their last nine…..that will keep anyone on the right side of the F & I report! And Logan “Tonk” Tonkovich is leading the charge. The junior hurled a complete game shutout to earn a 4-0 victory over the Oak Glen Golden Bears last weekend, and with one swing of the bat this past Monday, he walked the Huskies off with an extra innings 8-6 win over top 20 state-ranked Edison. Keep your eyes on the Huskies, the postseason drawing is this Sunday afternoon.

2. Paige Geanangel Youngstown State Softballthe former Indian Creek standout earned some recognition this past week at College Softball’s highest level. Geanangel was tapped as the Horizon League “Pitcher of the Week”. She’s a junior this year and has put together 33 wins during her career for the Penguins. Also of note, her squad is riding a seven game winning streak. #Hopedale 3. Harrison Central Track the Huskies had a solid showing at the Buckeye Eight Championship this past Tuesday. Eric Leech brought home the 800m title, Sam McClelland brought home second in the same event.

Tyler West came in second in both the high and long jump.

On the girls’ side, freshman Jasmine Arnold brought home second in the 3200m, running a time of 12:24. Fellow freshman Audrey Corder tied for second place in the high jump with mark of 4’8.

4. OVAC Tennis - for the boys it was University who picked up the 5A

Championship, while Cambridge secured the 1A-4A division. The Girls will wrap up their portion of the event this weekend.

5. Buckeye Eight Track – the Indian Creek girls’ squad captured the 2018 team crown and on the boys side it was St. Clairsville who left Stanton with the hardware. Big OVAC event on the Horizon for these athletes.

Who’s not?

1. Columbus Blue Jackets – after winning the first two games of their first round series against the Washington Capitals on the road, the CBJ went on to line up the ultimate choke job. In a spot where 88 percent of NHL teams advance in the playoffs with a 2-0 series lead, the Union Crew dropped four straight games. Racking up costly penalties while falling victim to silly goals.

Professional hockey has been in Columbus for 18 years now, and the 5thliners are still looking to advance out of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time in franchise history. Abysmal.

2. Hiland Softball - the Lady Hawks are battling through a tough 1-11 start, and with the postseason draw quickly approaching, it appears the often solid program will be chalking this season up to a rebuilding year.

3. Portland Trail Blazers the boys in Oregon will stand as the only NBA playoff team in 2018 to not win a game in the postseason. The New Orleans Pelicans made quick work of them, moving on to a matchup with Dub City a.k.a.

Huskies junior Logan Tonkovich drives through a pitch during last weekend’s game at Oak Glen.

Tonkovich is on a roll, following up his complete game shutout victory over the Golden Bears with a walk-off homerun against Edison two days later.

Cumberland when the Golden Bears had loaded the bases and threatened a late game rally in the bottom of the seventh. He is leading the team with a .458 batting average, leading the team with 21 RBI’s, leading the team with 22 hits, leading the team with three home runs, and leading the team with an eye-popping .854 slugging percentage. Quite simply, Tonkovich is emerging as a gamebreaker on a team full of high-level talent, and that is a good sign for the Huskies as the postseason

slowly sneaks into the windshield of the 2018 campaign. “Our goal every year is to get better and make sure we are playing our best baseball come postseason time,” Valesko stated after the game.

What might be the most impressive feat of Tonkovich’s breakout run is that he is doing all of this after having an intrusive knee surgery roughly 5-6 months ago, working his way through rehab to join his teammates in time for the pre-season grind. e Oak Glen victory was his second of the

year as the starting pitcher, a role that he has also excelled in with 13 strikeouts and an ERA of 1.050 through three appearances.

Considering that Valesko and Pitching Coach Brandon Ludwig can trot out two D-1 commits in Andrew Clelland and J.R. Heavilin on any given night, having a sturdy arm in Tonkovich is only adding to an already formidable pitching staff.

Fans in attendance of this past Monday’s game at Mazeroski Field

our errors! If we would just apply ours skills while on defensive, we could play against anyone. Right now we got to try and get in what games the weather will allow us, and at the same time get ready for play-offs,” he added.

Shaniel Nameth worked the mat in the opener for the Huskies in a game that lightening happened twice for the visitors in both the third and fourth frames. John

Glenn would get two run in each of the two inning to outlast the Huskies 8-5. Maddison Young got her second home run of the season to get things started for the Huskies. Young's four-bagger produced an early gleam of hope for the home-standers, who held the lead through five innings by a score of 5-2.

Kaylee Elliot had a good outing going 3-3, with a run scoring

double, and two singles and scoring.

In the second, Boyer drew a walk, Pechek singled and Kobey Johnson hit a sacrifice fly to spring Boyer.

Laken Ward legged-out a shallow hit to also score a run. In the fourth, both Young and Johnson singled, but were stranded. Elliott would single in the sixth and steal second, but ultimately would get caught trying to stretch to third.

Conotton Valley Board of Education approves wrestling coach

By JACQUIE HUMPHREY NH Contributor

LEESVILLE - At the April meeting of the Conotton Valley Board of Education, Bill Gilmore was unanimously approved at the district’s new varsity wrestling coach.

Gilmore comes to Conotton with 30 years of coaching experience of both wrestling and football, having served as head coach at both Tuscarawas Central Catholic and Indian Valley. A Dover High School alumni, Gilmore began coaching in 1980.

Gilmore will be revitalizing a program that had been defunct at Conotton for 10 years and says he is “very optimistic” after having 20 high school students, 18 junior high students and approximately 45 youth express an interest at the recent sign up event.

Gilmore is looking forward to teaching “a whole program about how to wrestle” and will be rolling out all three programs for the 201819 wrestling season. He says that he is “looking forward to bringing the excitement of wrestling to the Conotton Valley gym”.

Superintended Todd Herman said that "We are extremely excited to have a coach of his caliber here at CV. Coach Gilmore is well respected throughout the wrestling world. I am confident that he will build a wrestling program that our students and community can be proud of. His passion is contagious, and I can't wait to get him around our kids!"

Athletic Director Dave DiDonato shares Herman’s enthusiasm, stating “I'm really excited to have a coach with the qualifications and experience of Coach Gilmore spearheading our wrestling program here at Conotton Valley. He will bring passion, dedication, and enthusiasm to not only the wrestling program but the total

SURGE From previous were treated to a doozy, and that is probably the understatement of the season so far. e Wildcats came to town with the upper hand, having handing the Huskies a 2-0 loss in a tri-doubleheader at Ridgewood near the beginning of the year. However, evidence that the Huskies were ready for the rematch was quickly found in a three run first inning. Singles out of Chance Hursey and Logan Elliott opened the bottom half of the first for the Huskies, and sophomore Andrew Clelland made it 1-0 when he drove a double into left. Tonkovich then sailed a double to center that scored Elliott pushing the tally to 2-0. J.R. Heavilin reached the bags on an infield error that plated Clelland, and before the first was over the Huskies had taken a 3-0 lead. e two teams exchanged runs in the second, with a Clelland single bringing Hursey around third and home in the home half. A Caden Arbaugh single to center scored Heavilin in the third, putting the Huskies in front 5-1. But good

teams don’t just lay down, and the Wildcats would rally with three runs in the fifth and one in the sixth to ultimately push the game into extra innings. After the seventh went silent, Edison would go ahead 6-5 in the top of the eighth inning after an Anthony Sinicropi single scored Riley Watson. It was a perfect small-ball inning for the Wildcats, as they worked a leadoff Watson single into a run with a sacrifice bunt and some aggressive base running.

Trailing 6-5, the Huskies were in need of late game heroics. It just so happened there would be no shortage of players ready to answer the call.

Much like he did on the hardwood this past year, freshman Kobe Mitchell made a big play when his team needed him the most. Mitchell opened up the Harrison eighth with a double to left, and Hursey was able to get Mitchell over to third with a sacrifice ground ball on the very next at bat. Always steady Logan Elliott then tied the game with a line drive single to center, and just like that the Huskies were back in business with one on and one out.

Clelland grounded into a fielder’s choice, setting the stage for the game’s closing act in Tonkovich.

Green light swinging, the junior stepped in and airmailed the first pitch of the at bat over the left field fence, sending the Huskies dugout into a full blown frenzy.

“I’m happy to see we are playing much better now and making progress as the season goes along,” commented Valesko following the thrilling victory. Clelland worked six innings from the bump, ringing up nine batters before Logan Elliott came into to earn the win on the mound. “I’m very happy to get a nice win against a really good Edison team. We have a ton of respect for that program and what Coach Collopy does every year.

Our kids battled in a tournament like atmosphere, and that is a great thing at this point in the regular season. Drew (Clelland) did a nice job pitching and got stronger in the late innings before giving way to Logan (Elliott). e last inning was great to see because we battled out some great at bats before Tonk ended it with the exciting game winner,” Valesko concluded.

Three steps toward a better retirement

8

HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | THE ROAD BEYOND

Did You Know?

To finance your lifestyle in retirement, you can sell a life insurance policy you don’t need for as much as seven times the cash surrender value through a Life Settlement, says the nonprofit Life Insurance Settlement Association (LISA).

Learn more at (888) 504-8561 and www.lisa.org.

(NAPS)—For seniors who have already entered retirement, there are some important things that can be done in 2018 to make it better

and more fulfilling: 1. Consider your spending.

Create a budget and track your expenses.

Most experts say you’ll need at least 70 to 80 percent of your current income to live the same lifestyle in retirement, so after you figure what you’ll get from Social Security and any other income sources, you’ll need to create a nest egg that can throw off that much without your having to use any of the principal.

Also, your retirement can last

for a good long time.

According to AARP, a healthy, upper-middle-class couple who are 65 today have a 43 percent chance that one or both partners will live to see 95. Financial planners now advise that you withdraw no more than 3.5 percent a year out of your savings for both your regular expenditures and one-time items like a new roof or a big vacation for the money to be around as long as you are.

2. Take that dream trip

Saturday, April 28, 2018

while you can. Research by Joseph K. Goodman of Washington University in St. Louis, and Sarah Lim at Seoul National University, South Korea, among others, shows experiences bring more happiness than things. You want to get in as many good times as you can while your health holds out.

Another impetus: Many hotels, resorts, restaurants, attractions and tour operators offer special discounts for older travelers. For example, for less than $100 you can get a lifetime pass that lets you enjoy every national park in the country. Ask when you book about discounts for seniors and you may save enough for an extra trip or two.

3. Inventory your assets for

sources of cash. For example, take a good look at any life insurance policy you no longer need. It could be sold for a significantly greater amount than the policy’s cash surrender value through something called a Life Settlement. You get a cash payment and the purchaser assumes all future premium payments in exchange for the benefit. Candidates for life settlements are typically aged 70 or older, with a life insurance policy that has a death benefit of at least $100,000.

Such a sale could improve retirement for many, yet fewer than half of American seniors are aware of the option. That’s one reason the Life Insurance Settlement Association (LISA), a non-profit organization that

is the nation’s largest association representing participants in the life settlement industry, is committed to making sure that older Americans have all the information they need to make an informed decision. To explore whether a life settlement is a good option for you, you or your financial adviser can contact a licensed life settlement professional who is a member of the association and is subject to a rigorous vetting process.

Learn More For further facts about life settlements, how they work and whether you’re eligible, call the LISA office at (888) 504-8561 or visit www.lisa.org.

There may be hidden value in your life insurance policy.

(StatePoint) As we age, our bodies don’t perform as well as they once did, and vision is no exception.

However, early detection and treatment of eye problems and diseases through an eye exam is the best way to protect your eyes and overall health.

To help keep your eyes healthy for years to come, consider the following tips.

- Eat an eye-healthy diet. Fruits and vegetables, especially carrots and dark leafy greens, provide a hefty punch of key vitamins and a key vision protecting-substance called lutein. Find some new recipes to make filling up on these nutritious choices both delicious and fun.

- Maintain a healthy weight. Did you know that by eating healthy portions, exercising regularly and doing your best to maintain a healthy weight, you can reduce your risk of cataracts? Conditions such as obesity and diabetes can lead to vision problems like cataracts.

- Protect eyes from blue light.

Most people today spend a lot of time in front of digital screens, such as smartphones, computers and televisions. ese devices emit high-energy blue light, which causes digital eye strain that can lead to headaches, blurred vision, dry eyes and even neck pain. Ask your eye doctor about the best options to help reduce eye strain.

- Get an eye exam. A yearly eye

exam is one of the easiest and most important ways to reduce your odds of vision loss and protect your eyes. And it can also help you monitor and protect your overall health. Whether or not you wear glasses, be sure to schedule this crucial appointment. A routine eye exam can help detect signs of serious health conditions, like diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure glaucoma and macular degeneration. Because more obvious symptoms of some health conditions don’t always appear until damage has already occurred, routine eye exams are a good way of keeping tabs on what’s happening in your body.

- Make sure you have vision coverage. Do you have vision coverage through Medicare?

Review your plan. Many people don’t realize that Traditional Medicare doesn’t cover routine eye exams, glasses or contact lenses.

Check out such affordable options as VSP Individual Vision Plans, which offer comprehensive coverage with low out-of-pocket costs, savings on frames and lens enhancements such as progressives, and the ability to see the doctor you know and trust. Plans begin as low as $13 per month. For more information or to enroll, visit GetVSPDirect.com or call 877988-4746.

visits are critical for identifying potential health issues early, as well as maintaining a relationship with your primary care physician. During this visit, your doctor can establish a plan based on your age, gender and health status for the vaccinations and health screenings you need, such as mammograms, cholesterol screenings and colorectal cancer screenings. Medicare and Medicare Advantage cover certain types of annual exams at no extra cost. Check with your plan for details.

- Take medications as prescribed. Your drugs were prescribed for a reason. It is important to adhere to your medication regime and take medications as prescribed. Some drugs can cause harmful interactions, so make sure your doctor knows everything you take, including over-the-counter drugs.

- If you smoke, stop. Smoking is the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the U.S. It’s never too late to quit, and the benefits of doing so are almost immediate, according to the American Cancer Society. Keep in mind that parts of Medicare cover smoking cessation counseling and prescription medications.

- Get some exercise. Regular exercise can help older adults stay independent and prevent many health problems that come with age. Many Medicare Advantage plans offer exercise programs designed specifically for older adults at no extra cost.

If your plan has a program like this, make sure to take advantage of it.

- Have some fun! Be sure to make time for activities you enjoy and seek out others who also enjoy them. e social interaction is good for you.

“We are constantly inspired by stories of older adults reinventing themselves later in life in meaningful ways, from running marathons to mentoring young people to painting for the very first time,” said Brian Evanko, president of Cigna-HealthSpring. “e key that unlocks all of this is maintaining your physical and emotional health and well-being through the years.”

research. What’s more, you may be relieved to learn, there are ways to train without undo strain, aches and pains.

Doctor’s Advice To help, Bob Arnot, M.D., an award-winning journalist, author of 12 books on nutrition and health, host of the “Dr. Danger” reality TV series, previously Chief Medical Correspondent for NBC and CBS News, and Chief Foreign Correspondent for MSNBC and NBC, offers this advice: - Find a few minutes at least two to three times a week to maintain general fitness. Try three or four five-minute bursts of activity such as walking or climbing the stairs at the office.

- Take two or three more minutes a day for yoga breathing and movements to help your body maintain balance, usable strength, flexibility and muscular restoration.

- Spend another few minutes every day and before any vigorous exercise doing calf stretches and forward bends.

(NAPS)—For many older adults, growing older seems to involve an inevitable loss of strength, energy and vigor—but that need not be, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). e frailty and decreased energy associated with aging are largely due to muscle loss due to inactivity. And when it comes to muscle, the old saying is true: “Use it or lose it.”

What To Do One of the best ways to keep muscles healthy and strong, the CDC advises, is through exercises called strength training.

Why To Do It Done regularly, strength training builds bone and muscle and helps to preserve strength, independence and energy. ese exercises are safe and effective for women and men of all ages, including those who are not in perfect health. In fact, people with health concerns— such as arthritis or heart disease—often benefit the most from lifting weights a few times each week.

Strength training, the CDC adds, can also reduce the signs and symptoms of: - Arthritis—It reduces pain and stiffness and increases strength and flexibility.

- Diabetes—It improves glycemic control.

- Osteoporosis—It builds bone density and reduces risk for falls.

- Heart disease—It reduces cardiovascular risk by improving lipid profile and overall fitness.

Obesity—It increases metabolism, which helps burn more calories and helps with longterm weight control.

- Back pain—It strengthens back and abdominal muscles to reduce stress on the spine.

What’s more, studies have shown that people who exercise regularly sleep better and have less depression, more self-confidence and self-esteem, and a greater sense of well-being.

Fortunately, strength training exercises are easy to learn, and have been proven safe and effective through years of thorough

(NAPS)—If you’re like most people, your resolution to eat well and get fit won’t even last six months. According to U.S. News & World Report, 80 percent of people ditch their resolutions after eight weeks.

Fortunately, there are fun, retroinspired tools you can use to stay on track while staying on trend. “e most effective way to keep your resolutions is to find ways to make healthy living fun,” explains exercise physiologist and Schwinn fitness adviser Tom Holland. “If you find a workout or a nutritious recipe you enjoy, make it a part of your regular routine and eventually you’ll have a healthy habit that’ll last a lifetime.”

Recently, retro-inspired items have soared in popularity based on the nostalgia and positive memories they evoke. Having things that remind you of your childhood can create positive

emotions and help keep you motivated.

Try these four retro-inspired essentials to make healthy living more fun with a nod to the good ol’ days: 1.

Invigorate your workout with vinyl.

Music can play a crucial role in any fitness routine, as it motivates you to keep moving.

According to Costas Karageorghis, Ph.D., from London’s Brunel University School of Sport and Education, music can benefit people’s athletic performance by up to 15 percent by making them less aware of their exertion. Looking for a trendy and unique way to listen to music? Try investing in a record player that blends new with old by offering Bluetooth technology inside a retroinspired design. Head to your local record store to find your favorite old and new upbeat tunes that’ll get you amped to sweat.

- Stay hydrated before, during and after your workout.

- To reduce your risk of muscle soreness after exercise, consider a massage, an Epsom salts bath or intermittent hot and cold showers, as well as proper stretching and cooldown.

- Muscle strains and muscle pulls are major health concerns for weekend athletes. Signs you should look for alerting you to rest your muscles and avoid overtraining are a higher than normal resting heart rate, disrupted sleep due to an elevated heart rate, muscle cramping and muscle twitching.

- Eat right. In addition to lots of fruits and vegetables and a few lean meats, consume foods with magnesium, which helps fight inflammation, and with vitamin B12—especially if you’re over 50—such as fortified cereals.

Drink three cups of fat-free or low-fat milk throughout the day or consume the equivalent in yogurt, cheese or other dairy products. Consider an anti-

inflammatory diet—cut out sugar, potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant.

- Go topical. Topical pain relievers such as creams, gels and patches work locally. For example, the Salonpas Lidocaine 4% Pain Relieving Gel-Patch provides the maximum strength of lidocaine available without a prescription.

According to the Center for Medicare Advocacy, “[Lidocaine] is a highly effective pain reliever and its unique non-narcotic and

nonaddictive properties make it a benign alternative to opioids, without the risks and devastating side effects of opioids.” ese unscented patches can desensitize aggravated nerves and provide numbing relief generally within an hour of application.

Interest Rates are Rising: Should The Fine Art of the 'Do-It-Together' Move You Buy a Home or Wait?

(StatePoint) With heightened talk of rising interest rates, many prospective homebuyers are understandably concerned about whether it’s the right time to purchase a home.

Indeed, you may be wondering if you waited too long and let the historically low interest rates pass you by or if you can still find a dream home that fits within your current budget.

Experts say that it’s true that rates are at their highest in almost four years and that this year has been particularly rough, however, it’s not all bad news. Rates are still well below the levels seen 10, 20 and 30 years ago.

“Rates are still low by historical standards, helping make mortgage payments affordable for many, but your wallet might take

a hit if rates continue to go up,” says Freddie Mac deputy chief economist, Len Kiefer.

How big will the hit be? Assume you buy a home with a 20 percent down payment, take out a $200,000 mortgage and are getting a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage. At a 4.5 percent interest rate, your monthly payment would be $811 with total interest paid over the life of the loan being $131,851. With a 7.5 percent interest rate, your monthly payment would be $1,119 with a total interest paid of $242,748. With an 18 percent interest rate, your monthly payment skyrockets to $2,411 with a total interest paid of $708,081.

If rates jump a half percentage, you’ll pay a bit more each month,

which isn’t ideal, but the added expense will unlikely be a dealbreaker. However, if rates jump to the levels they were in 1981 (an average of 18 percent), you can expect to pay a whopping $1,600 more per month, which may cause you to think twice about taking the plunge into homeownership.

Don’t let current rising interest rates prevent you from buying a home this year. Experts suggest that while rates have risen recently, historically speaking, it is still an overall great time to buy.

(StatePoint) e average American has moved five times in their life so far, moving an average of 26 boxes each time, according to a recent survey conducted by Duck brand. Talk about moving mayhem!

Despite this huge undertaking, surprisingly, less than 20 percent of Americans hire professional movers. Most rely on family members (58 percent), friends (55 percent) and spouses/partners (51 percent).

Here are a few tips to help you master your upcoming move.

1. Use “Smart” Supplies. In addition to the essentials like boxes, Bubble Wrap cushioning and packing tape, keep an eye out for new tech-based moving solutions, like the Duck Pack & Track app-based labeling system, which uses a smartphone app and unique labels to keep track of your boxes’ contents. For a frustration-free move, you can easily label boxes to find what you need later in no time. Simply purchase the labels and download the free app. Place a label on a box; scan the QR code; and log the name, location and

contents of the box by typing or using voice commands. You can even add a photo of the box contents. To find items, simply speak or type that item into the app, and the box name and location will be provided. For more information, visit DuckPackAndTrack.com.

2. Determine Your Packing Process. How do most people organize boxes? e three most popular approaches are: by room the item is in before the move (45 percent); by the room the item will go in at the new house (25 percent) and by type of item (17 percent). Any method can prevent headaches. Just don’t be like the 10 percent of Americans who don’t organize in any particular way!

3. Pack Like a Professional.

More than 80 percent of Americans say they find something frustrating when packing to move. e top complaint? Worrying about items breaking. Help ensure keepsakes and other breakables arrive intact by using Bubble Wrap cushioning. For the best protection, wrap items with the

bubbles facing inward -- not outward.

Once securely wrapped, seal boxes with a stronger, more durable packaging tape to ensure even the heaviest boxes arrive safely and securely.

4. Stay Calm on Moving Day. e hustle and bustle of moving day may be stressful, so have a method to the madness.

Designate a go-to person for questions. Plan meals and beverages ahead of time to keep movers happy and hydrated.

Give helpers specific tasks inadvance or schedule them in shifts to avoid a traffic jam. And finally, always have a plan for unexpected obstacles, such as weather.

5. Mind Your Manners. Show your movers how grateful you are for their help. Reward them with a special treat either on moving day or afterwards. Hosting a special party once you’re moved in is a great way to get back together and show your appreciation. And remember to say “please” and “thank you” throughout the entire process.

Small gestures go a long way, especially if you find yourself having to move again.

Smart Tips to Keep Your Grill Clean and Safe (StatePoint) Nothing beats barbecues, block parties and al fresco dining. For your family’s safety and for the sake of your grill, here are some pointers on keeping that grill well-maintained all season.

Visual Check Ensure your grill is still in good working order after the off-season by giving it a once-over. Remember to turn off the gas and tank valves before getting started.

Check whether all of its components are intact, including gas hoses. Also, determine whether the tank is full.

Keep in mind that many grills come with a warranty, and you may be able to replace worn out parts without needing to buy a brand-new grill entirely.

Quick Clean-Up When it comes to the grates, experts recommend using tools that allow you to skip the brush and the elbow grease to save some time and energy.

“Spray a concentrated multipurpose cleanser over your grill’s grates evenly, wait a few seconds to give the grease time to break down, then gently wipe the area down with a sponge,” says TV contractor, Jeff Devlin, who uses Mean Green on his grill. e spray, which was recently named by Real Simple Magazine as the Best Multipurpose Spray, is available at Walmart and other retailers.

Other Considerations A deep clean is important once or twice a season.

However, after each use, you can keep debris and build-up from becoming a bigger problem with a quick spot clean. One important area you don’t want to neglect is the bottom of the grill, where ash and grease build-up is likely to occur. Scrape out this section regularly.

You can better protect your grill from the elements and guard against rusting by covering it after each use.

If possible, use the cover provided by the manufacturer, as its designed to best fit your grill. is season, take great care of your grill. With the right tools on hand, you can streamline your routine.

By Esther McCoy e Friends of Smithfield group will be sponsoring a pasta dinner, with salad, bread and dessert on May 3 from noon to 4 p.m. at the Presbyterian Church. is is a fundraiser for the group to carry on with projects for the village. A Chinese auction will be held with gift cards for eating establishments, village businesses, groceries and gas available, if the correct ticket is pulled from the container. e business meeting is held following the dinner cleanup as there are members who live in other areas. Cindy Straus Grace, secretary, is from Cleveland; Richard McElroy, director, from Canton; John Borkowski, vice president, from Kirtland; and Charles "Butch" Fluharty, director, from Columbia, Mo. On the agenda for the meeting will be programs and projections to offer support and ideas for help with Northern Cemetery mowing, the crumbling retaining wall at the intersection of State Route 151 and 152, the enclosure of the bell that rang for classes to start at the Smithfield High and Elementary School that was later moved to Northwest Elementary School until the school was closed.

Members of the former Smithfield Lions Club moved the bell to the Smithfield Quaker Church Cemetery and Paul Greene and a village employee devised a base for it. Now the group wants to have it enclosed with a transparent cover so the bell can be protected from the elements. ey keep an area at the cemetery cleaned and have flowers planted at the benches as well. Some of the projects to be discussed are the mowing of the Northern Cemetery, annual Octa Foster classroom teacher grant application with Erin Best as the winner for projects in the upper elementary grades at Buckeye North Elementary. A college scholarship is awarded to a high school graduate of a Smithfield High School parent or grandparent as well. e Brilliant Lions Club held a pulled pork dinner at the Wells Township Community Center on April 22. ere were many Smithfield residents in attendance, including our Christian Church members, Pastor Wilford Simeral, Anna Simeral, Butch and Carol Ann Garcia, Linda Morris, Karen Pazzelli, Shelly Pugh, Jean Digman. And Tony Phillippi. Sis Brannon, 91-years-young, of New Alexandria, was there. She makes dozens of pizzelles each week to take to residents of health facilities and for children in Sunday School classes. John Corrigan and his wife were at the dinner. ey are frequent visitors

at area fundraisers and it is great to see his smiling face and warm welcome.

Our son, Darin, has a Bichon frise dog named Charlie who has the most adorable brown eyes.

He has been known to grow tons of fur and was taken to the groomers to get made more ready for the warmer weather to come.

In talking to our grandson Jackson, who is part owner of Charlie, he told that the enthusiastic dog received a close hair cut, even having his ears trimmed. "Was he embarrassed about having a haircut," I asked, hearing that animals can get embarrassed if anything drastic is done to their fur? "No he wasn't embarrassed but my mom sure was," he said. e "Keeping in Touch" Smithfield Alumni Society newsletter is now out and there is a form for sending back to attend the July 28 banquet and awards dinner. is is at Froehlich's in Steubenville and the doors open at 4 p.m. with dinner served at 5:30 p.m. Ron Retzer is providing the musical entertainment and Rick Pastre does his popular accordion playing while walking around the tables. He even takes requests.

Rick can be found at Gables Care Center and other care facilities playing for the senior citizens as well. We have an auction with John Borkowski as auctioneer, where is auctioneer Billy Birney when we need him? ose attending have been donating Smithfield High School memorabilia for three years and I think they are about of anything like that, so we are taking anything that might be of interest to someone else.

Ohioans fish for free the first weekend in May May 5-6 is Ohio's free fishing weekend COLUMBUS – Ohio is known for its world-class fishing, and on May 5-6, anglers are invited to take part in the annual free fishing weekend, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). Ohio’s Free Fishing Days are open to all Ohio residents and extend to all of Ohio’s public waters, including Lake Erie and the Ohio River. is is the only weekend all year that does not require anyone 16-years-old or older to obtain a fishing license. e ODNR Division of Wildlife’s six fish hatcheries stocked more than 66 million sport fish in public waters in 2017, including walleye, saugeye, steelhead, rainbow trout, brown trout, muskellunge, channel catfish, blue catfish and hybrid striped bass, which will provide opportunities for more than 1.3 million Ohio anglers.

Ohio State Parks is also offering a camping discount during Ohio’s Free Fishing Days. Campers can receive a 20

percent off discount May 4-6 by using the promotion code 18ANGLER. e Free Fishing Days weekend offers Ohioans of all ages the chance to experience the fun of catching a fish. Here are some helpful tips for taking a youngster out fishing.

- Keep the trip simple by considering a child’s age and skill level.

- Choose a pond, lake or stream where children will be able to easily catch a few fish.

- A spin-cast reel is usually the easiest for kids to use.

- Bring a camera and snacks.

- Be patient – plan on spending time untangling lines, baiting hooks, landing fish and taking pictures.

- Most of all, have fun.

Anglers 16 years and older are required to have a valid fishing license to take fish, frogs or turtles from Ohio waters when not fishing on Ohio’s free fishing weekend. An Ohio resident fishing license is only $19 a year for residents. Fishing licenses are available at participating agents

and wildohio.gov. e sales of fishing licenses, along with the Sport Fish Restoration (SFR) program, continue to fund ODNR Division of Wildlife’s fish management operations. No state tax dollars are used for these activities. ese are userpay, user-benefit programs. e SFR is a partnership between federal and state governments, industry and anglers/boaters. When anglers purchase rods, reels, fishing tackle, fish finder and motor boat fuel, they pay an excise tax. e federal government collects these taxes, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service administers and disburses these funds to state fish and wildlife agencies. ese funds are used to acquire habitat, produce and stock fish, conduct research and surveys, provide aquatic education, and acquire and develop boat accesses.

ODNR ensures a balance between wise use and protection of our natural resources for the benefit of all. Visit the ODNR website at ohiodnr.gov.

ICMS performing production on May 4 JUNCTION-An MINGO upcoming performance at Indian Creek Middle School will be out of this world as students stage their first production on May 4.

Members of the school’s new seventh-grade drama club will perform in Marshall Pailet’s oneact comedy, “Everyone Gets Abducted by Aliens: A Cautionary Tale,” in the cafetorium with doors opening at 7 p.m. and the show starting at 7:30 p.m. Advisor Frank Elliott is directing the production and said admission is by donation this year since it was brand new at ICMS. Proceeds from sponsors and collections on the evening of the performance will go toward club activities and the future of the program.

Elliott said interest has grown in the club since the idea was developed this past winter.

“In February, several of the seventh-graders came and asked if they could meet in my room during lunch to work on a skit. I believe there were maybe six kids,” he recalled. “Since deciding to do a play, the club has grown to roughly 30 kids. I saw an opportunity to help students find a place to shine in a fun, new way and to use it as a feeder program to support future productions at the high school.”

He also hopes that more shows will be featured at ICMS in the future.

“My hope is to have a club that all ICMS students can be a part of

next year and beyond. In fact, the students currently in the seventhgrade took a vote on a junior musical for next year,” he said. “I have the honor and privilege to teach these kids in a classroom and work with them in this club as well as the choir. We have some terrific kids at ICMS and I want them to have every opportunity possible to shine in the classroom, in athletics and on stage. It is important to have programs that give all our students a place to fit in as not every student connects through each setting. By offering more opportunities, we allow ourselves as educators to reach more of our students and make a positive impact on their future.”

MEETINGS, NOTICES, ANNOUNCEMENTS Cadiz Finance/Street meeting e Village of Cadiz will hold a Finance/Street combined committee meeting on ursday, May 3 at 6 p.m. in council chambers.

LEGAL NOTICE AQUA OHIO, INC., NOTICE OF APPLICATION TO ASSESS A SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT CHARGE BEFORE THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF OHIO

Former Lake Erie East, Masury, Norlick Divisions and Mohawk Utilities Public notice is hereby given that on March 1, 2018, Aqua Ohio, Inc. filed with the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio an Application for Authority to Assess a System Improvement Charge in the Lake Erie East, Masury, Norlick Divisions and Mohawk Utilities. The case number of the proceeding before the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio is 18-0337-WW-SIC. A copy of the application is available for inspection at the office of Aqua Ohio, Inc., located at 6650 South Avenue, Boardman, Ohio 44512.

The filing may also be viewed online at the Commission’s docketing department website www.ohio.gov/puco/docketing/index.cfm.

In its application, the Company seeks to avail itself of the authority set forth in Ohio Revised Code section 4909.172 to assess a monthly system improvement charge on all metered and fire service customers. The purpose of seeking authority to assess and collect a SIC is to fund the replacement and rehabilitation of infrastructure including aging water mains and plant that are crucial to service reliability and water quality. Improvements totaling more than $19.1 million have been made since the last rate case in 2016. The application, if granted in full, will result in an additional $1.78 per month for an average residential customer using 4,000 gallons of water per month in the Lake Erie East, Masury, Norlick Divisions and Mohawk Utilities. The proposed surcharge would equal 3.937 percent of the total water service bill of each customer, and customers can contact the applicant toll-free at 877.987.2782 with any questions concerning the application.

Adena Lions Club presents “Bridge to Broadway” HARRISON NEWS-HERALD

Saturday, April 28, 2018

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

ADENA - e practice sessions of over three months brought forth success for the Adena Lions Club as they presented "Bridge to Broadway," a story in itself. Last fall, the bridge connecting the Smithfield side of the town to the Harrisville side was removed for repairs, as it was in a deteriorating condition. is left the residents divided from traveling from one side to the other without going many miles out of their way. e 68th annual show brought out this dilemma in the backdrop where the Buckeye Local High School art class, under the direction of Lynn Sweeney, who made the left side a scene from the Adena Park, some buildings on the square; and the right side a montage of playbills from the Broadway shows where they their musical borrowed productions. e indispensable gray, iron bridge was connected between the two scenes, showing how the village had coped throughout the many months. us the name, "Bridge to Broadway." And what a great presentation it was.

At the start of the program, Karl Bowers and his henchmen, attired in hard hats, safety vests and lots of tools on their belts, came up the main aisle and started pounding with hammers and proceeded to cart away the steps. Dan Holt, interlocutor, questioned the workers. Bowers, the spokesman, said that repairs were needed and they had to take away the only way to get down from the stage. is sounded like words heard six months before about the bridge that was removed. He said it would be in working order again when the weather improved. us the stage was left without steps throughout the entire show. At the program conclusion, the workers came back hoisting a set of steps that had a handrail and said that work was completed. is was a parody on the real bridge situation for the village and caused many laughs.

Something else that created many laughs was the chimney sweep portrayed by Dennis Kinsey.

Drew Case was the news reporter interviewing the keeper of the chimneys and Kinsey displayed a contraption he was to place inside the chimney, which happened to be a toilet seat with an alarm attached.

When properly installed a pink flamingo would come to nest there. e stage crew had a long ladder leaning against the stage wall and on the corner was a replica of a chimney many feet from the ground. Slowly

Jessica Harr is surrounded by admiration from the End Men at the Adena Lions Club presentation of "Bridge to Broadway," the 68th annual show provided for the folks from Adena, Smithfield, Harrisville, Mount Pleasant, Brilliant, New Alexandria, Piney Fork and other parts of the area. She sang and danced to "Hello Dolly" in the 24 act show that was held for two evenings. Dan Holt was interlocutor, taking over the position held by John Parkinson for over 60 years with the Lions.

Endmen were Drew Case, Dennis Kinsey, Dean Rutan, Rich Steffl, Roger Warren and Rob Whinnery. Wally Jancura is also in the picture.

Kinsey climbed up, while looking back to make funny comments. At one point, the ladder starts to fall from the wall, chained to keep from going over, and Kinsey dangles for a minute.

He finally gets to the top, installs his invention and down comes the pink flamingo of happiness to nest in the chimney. He has been known to pull off some funny but dangerous antics during his many years. He gets a Golden Wave Oscar for his bravery and humor for the many times he has been doing these tricks.

Angelica Kidd, likely the youngest member of the chorus, sang "Tomorrow" from "Annie" and young dancers, Kenna Case, Addie Erwin and Delaney Florence, danced and twirled their umbrellas to "Singin' in the Rain"; Kenna Case was back with Delaney Florence and Cadyia Pugh as "Aquarius" dancers and tap dancers were Denise Howell and Rebecca Kinsey to "Lullaby of Broadway."

Past District Governor R.J. Konkoleski, who carries about 40 award pins of his red Lions Club jacket, told of the many projects funded by the Lions with the proceeds from the show. ey were the instigators for the very up-todate eye sight machine used by the Buckeye Local schools, going in partnership with the Brilliant,

Dennis Kinsey played the part of the chimney sweep from "Mary Poppins" and climbed a tall ladder to install his cleaning invention to bring the pink flamingo of happiness to the chimney.

It worked after the ladder started falling backward, intentionally.

He was hanging from a rung for a minute but it was chained to the wall for safety.

DAR holds April meeting at hospital The Moravian Trail Chapter of the DAR met April 21 at the Harrison Community Hospital with eight members present. Dessert was served by the hospital staff. Patty Vaughan was the hostess.

Regent Vaughan and Chaplain Kay Singer led the DAR ritual.

Chaplain Singer shared a lighthearted devotion entitled the Prayer Rock. Sheila Perkins read the President General's message. President General Ann Turner Dillon shared how much she has been enjoying attending state conferences and hearing about all the great work being done in DAR. She invited members to Washington DC to the Continental Congress and to West Point to a memorial for a Revolutionary heroine.

She announced that the DAR Museum will be ready to welcome guests this summer and announced the availability of a $500 grant for classroom teachers. She encouraged staying in touch through the DAR Blog and the DAR magazine.

Janice Yager gave the National Defense message dealing with the conflict in Syria.

She shared that a few months ago it looked like the 7 year war in Syria might be coming to an end but now both Iran and Russia are involved and the risk of escalating is high.

The chlorine-gas attack on children by their own leader has put the US in a conflict over wanting to retaliate against Assad and putting peace keeping operations into the hands of Syrian neighbors.

Since this month is the anniversary of the adoption of the American's Creed, a brief history of the formulation of the creed was given. It was first written by Thomas Jefferson, then redone by William Tyler Page and finally adopted on April 3, 1918 making America the only nation in the world founded on a creed.

The secretary and treasurer's reports were given by Janice Yager and Jackie Gebhart.

Sheila Perkins will attend a registration workshop on April 29 and she is working with the SAR chapter to put together a joint meeting with our chapter in June. It will celebrate Flag Day and the program should

be about Fort Laurens. The May meeting will be at the hospital and will be a welcome to anyone interested in knowing about DAR. The September meeting will be a lunch at the home of Charlotte Thomas in St. Clairsville with a representative of the Passport Agency doing the program.

We will continue the summer Tea Party, which will be held on Aug.15.

Jackie Gephart will make invitations. This has been a good fundraiser as members stay at home, all drink tea at the same time and send a donation to a cause which will be determined a the next meeting.

The group were saddened by the passing of one of their over 90 year old active members, Jean Ater. Jean loved DAR and was responsible for bringing two daughters and a niece into membership. Some of our members held a DAR service for her on March 17 at the Koch Funeral Home in Freeport.

The program was presented

by Kay Singer entitled "Our Constitution Rocks" It was taken from a book for young people written to help them understand this important document. Both Laura and Barbara Bush had endorsed the book and it helped explain that the US didn't just happen. Our constitution, unlike any other, was written through the collective genius of our founding fathers in 1787 and the American people have kept it with few changes ever since. Its seven articles and 27 amendments establishes our form of government, protects our freedoms and rights with checks and balances to protect against dictatorship and provides for a way to amend it if necessary. The book was very colorful and attractive and members are considering purchasing copies for area schools.

The next meeting will be May 19 at the Harrison Community Hospital at 1:30 with Janice Yager as hostess.

Anyone who has ever had any curiosity about DAR is invited.

Ash arraigned, faces possible life in prison Saturday, April 28, 2018

Zurek granted judicial release, Sanchez faces revocation of sanctions

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ - Andrew Zurek, who pleaded guilty to two counts of rape and received a four-year sentence back in 2016, filed for judicial release as was planned as part of the original agreement.

Tuesday, Judge Hervey granted his release as it was stated during sentencing that the state would not oppose his release if he served at least two years in prison.

Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese stated that the early release was the understanding at the time of sentencing and saw no reason for the court to not honor the original joint agreement between the state and the defendant, who was represented by Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola.

“This was part of the original agreement…we don’t know of any reason to ask this court to not follow our original joint recommendation therefore, we have no opposition to the release,” Bruzzese explained.

The victim, who was an acquaintance of Zurek spoke in protest of his early release and read an impact statement throwing out allegations of having her life threatened by him and the pain it caused.

She stated she’s had panic attacks regarding his possible release from prison, among a host of emotions she noted.

“It’s hard for me to trust anybody,” she told the court and said she feared for her safety.

Following the victim’s statement

she made an unusual request to ask Zurek why he did it but Pincola stated he advised his client not to make any statements “at this time.”

“I have advised my client not to answer any questions from the victim in this case,” Pincola continued, “simply for the reason that that’s not what we’re here for today…we’re not here to relitigate this case. He did allude to the fact that information provided in discovery could be released at a later date but would not do so now.

“There are traumas that will never heal, we understand that but we’re here to, we can’t solve that issue…” Pincola told the court.

Hervey noted that Zurek was eligible to file for judicial release earlier than this but noted Zurek was aware of the agreement and apparently decided to wait until two years had been served, which actually came to 26 months as stated in court.

Hervey also noted Zurek had the “lowest level of security classification” in prison as well as no violations while incarcerated and completed “several activities” and programs.

“I’ll do whatever the court asks…” Zurek told Hervey when asked if he had anything to say in regards to his motion. Zurek will not walk immediately free, though as he will remain incarcerated until a bed opens at the Eastern Ohio Correction Center (EOCC) where he will need to complete the program there, which could last up to six months if necessary.

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Charles W. Ash Jr., the 40 year-old from Scio, was arraigned early Wednesday afternoon on three felony charges, two of them were of first degree, rape.

Harrison County Prosecutor Owen Beetham stated that based on Ash’s prior history and the nature of the current charges, which involve a minor under the age of 10 years old at the time of count one (rape) and under the age of 13 for count two (rape), he asked for and was granted a bond in the amount of $1 million.

A third count, a felony of the fourth degree, involved gross sexual imposition, the same charge he was convicted of back in 2015 along with importuning. e possible life sentence without parole comes with count one, and count two he faces a possible 15 years to life. e third count is a possible 18-month sentence. “e court’s aware of Mr. Ash’s

Hervey noted that numerous factors came into the decision including the facts of the case, Zurek’s actions since his conviction and the victim’s sentiments, which he said were taken “very seriously.”

“So, Mr. Zurek is not getting out today. Mr. Zurek will be held locally until placement can be made at Eastern Ohio Correction Center,” Hervey explained adding that Zurek was expected to involve himself in sex offender specific programs at EOCC. Cadiz resident, Eric Sanchez was brought to court Tuesday as he also faced revocation of his CBC sanctions for a series of traffic mishaps, which included launching a stolen vehicle into a Hopedale house two weeks ago.

Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese informed the court that Sanchez still owes $1,452 from a previous case and expressed concern for a driving under the influence charge, as well as “drug or alcohol use from April 13th” noting separate violations.

“It’s apparent that his lack of respect for this court and this probation department’s rules had led to these charges…” Bruzzese explained noting his being out at 4 a.m. “driving drunk on a stolen vehicle” and crashing into a house near Carpraro’s Restaurant. Bond was set at $75,000.

Sanchez said he was working and stated he did make a payment against that financial debt. He still faces pending charges in county court for the actual offenses of that crash.

prior criminal record as Mr. Ash has been in front of this court on two other occasions…” Beetham reminded the court where he noted the two prior convictions, prior criminal acts and wanting to protect the public and the alleged victim before requesting the high bond.
