Safety first

Electricity runs (or can run) nearly everything in our lives. It’s such an integral part of our everyday lives, in fact, that we rarely even think about all the benefits that electric service brings to our homes and businesses every minute of every day.

At the same time, it’s even less often that we consider how dangerous electric current can be without proper safety practices and precautions; improvements to the safety features found in everything from major appliances to basic household wiring let us take advantage of all those benefits without much of a thought. But because of that potential danger, safety is always top of mind at your electric cooperative.

Electricity is produced at our power plants and transmitted around the state at very high voltages — up to 345,000 volts. At such high voltages, it’s almost impossible to safely approach energized electrical equipment. In order to distribute that power throughout the communities we serve, co-ops use transformers to step down the high-voltage current, typically to between 7,200 and 12,000 volts. At that level, the systems can be safely managed — by highly trained lineworkers and technicians using specialized equipment. When the stepped-down current reaches closer to your home, another set of transformers again lowers the voltage, this time to the more familiar 120 or 240 volts that we use in our households. But even at these lower voltages, electricity is still extremely hazardous, which is why the conductors that carry it in our communities are either attached to overhead poles or buried underground in insulated cable — either way, the system is designed to be located safely away from potential contact by the public. Of course, it’s not foolproof; things like large equipment, improperly placed ladders or lifts, traffic accidents, or even poorly located trees can potentially lead to a high-voltage contact.

That’s where precaution and safety training come to our aid.

Electric cooperatives spend significant time and effort on safety training, and they go out of their way to create public awareness — helping people avoid hazardous situations if they can, and showing them how to react when it’s unavoidable. Our story this month about the mobile safety training unit that folks can see at Farm Science Review each September has some great information on electrical safety. I encourage you to read the story on page 4, and if you’re planning to attend the Farm Science Review this year, check out one of the safety demonstrations at our Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives building on the grounds there.

Much thought and decades of experience have come together to allow us to safely enjoy the benefits of electric service nearly anywhere. Fortunately, most of us never have to give it a second thought. But safety never just happens. It’s an intentional outcome of rigorous standards, thorough testing, and continual training.

Hope you all enjoy a relaxing and safe Labor Day weekend.

Lasting lessons

Farm Science Review lets Ohio’s co-ops get their safety message out to the masses.

4  OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • SEPTEMBER 2023

It’s not unusual for the crew of lineworkers from Lancaster-based South Central Power Company to hang around and make small talk with attendees after they’ve finished their hourly live-wire safety demonstrations at the annual Farm Science Review in London.

The demonstrations have been a staple outside the Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives Education Building on the grounds of the Molly Caran Agricultural Center in London for years. They always draw crowds, and the crowds are rewarded with an entertaining yet dramatic reminder about the need for safe practices around electrical lines. But last year, the crew noticed an individual waiting for them who clearly had something urgent on his mind.

“Our guys are really good about making sure they answer everyone’s questions, and they’ll stick around as long as they need to,” says Candi Fisher, member engagement coordinator at South Central Power, who coordinates the mobile safety demonstrations for the co-op. “They could tell this older gentleman wanted to talk to them and so they went over to say hello.”

“You saved my life,” the man said.

“That’s not something you hear every day,” Fisher says. “But he was very insistent. He made a special trip there that day to thank the guys who had saved his life.”

As they chatted further, the man told the lineworkers that he had been driving when the car ahead of him swerved into a utility pole and brought power lines down just feet away from his car.

Worried about a possible fire, the man knew he needed to get away from his vehicle, but he recalled one specific part of the demonstration he had witnessed at Farm Science Review the previous year.

“They always stress that the safest place for you when you’re in an accident that involves power lines is inside the vehicle,” Fisher says. “He was worried about a fire, though, and remembered the next part: If you do have to get out, jump out and land with both feet together, then bunny-hop away until you can’t do it anymore.”

The man told the lineworkers that if he hadn’t seen that demonstration, he would have gotten out and run away from the car, which, if the ground is energized by a downed line — he later found that it was — can send a fatal charge through a person’s body in an instant.

South Central Power’s Live Line Demonstration Unit, housed and transported from place to place in a box trailer, makes appearances for law enforcement and safety authorities, civic groups, and high school students throughout the community during the course of a year.

But by far its largest audience is attendees at Farm Science Review, which draws more than 100,000 visitors to the three-day event. The crew puts on five 20-minute demonstrations each day (weather permitting).

“We know that these demonstrations help keep people safe and protected, and we do it because, as a cooperative, we genuinely care about our communities and our members,” Fisher says. “It helps reinforce to people that they need to respect those lines. When people see that demonstration live and in person, it spurs a core memory, and that can be a lifesaver.”

The live line unit was designed and built by South Central Power employees. It consists of three portable poles connected by 30 feet of primary wire, with transformers at either end and a breaker on the middle pole. It’s powered by 7,200 volts of electricity — the actual amount of current that flows through power lines in most communities. The lineworkers show some of the real dangers of electricity and the safety practices that are used to prevent tragedies.

“A real eye-opener for most people is when we show them how leather gloves, tennis shoes, and most automobile tires don’t protect against the electricity that flows through electric lines,” Fisher says. “I think maybe the most powerful one is when they electrify a hot dog, and it

M e a t

It took more than 6,000 years for the last ice sheet, the Wisconsin Glacier, to spread across what is now Lake Erie and Ohio, at an average rate of about 160 feet per year. In doing so, it set the stage for peatland ecosystems — bogs and fens (see sidebar at left if you don’t know what they are) — to make their appearance in the Great Lakes region.

Those bogs and fens, as it turned out, became habitats for some strange natural phenomena, says Guy Denny, author of Peatlands of Ohio and the Southern Great Lakes Region (Kent State University Press, 2022) and one of the Buckeye State’s leading naturalists.

“Even into medieval times, bogs and fens remained mystical and frightening places,” says Denny, a member of Mount Gilead-based Consolidated Cooperative. “Fueling

Spatulate-leaved sundew

The fleshy leaves of sundew are covered with glandular tentacles tipped with droplets of sticky secretions. “The common name ‘sundew’ is in reference to how the droplets glisten in sunlight, resembling morning dew,” Denny says. “The sweet and very sticky substance topping the tips of the tentacles attract and then entangle insect prey.”

Bogs and fens?

If you don’t know the difference between a bog and a fen, this little saying might help: “Fens flush and bogs back up.” It means that fens are sustained by underground water sources, such as a mineralrich spring; bogs, on the other hand, depend upon precipitation or surface water to replenish them.

The more the prey struggles, the more tentacles bend over to further entrap it. Slowly, the tentacles force the prey downward onto the surface of the leaf, which at the same time folds over the prey. On the surface of the leaf are glands that secrete digestive enzymes. Ultimately all the process leaves behind is the indigestible chitinous material that once formed the exoskeleton.

Denny says the entire process takes from three to 20 minutes, depending upon the size of prey. The sundew leaf then slowly reopens to repeat the process with its next unlucky insect victim.

some of those fears was a natural phenomenon known as ‘willo’-the-wisp’ or ‘jack-o’-lantern’ — a mysterious, fl ickering light often observed hovering and moving around at night within bogs, swamps, and marshes.

“In folklore, they were thought to be nefarious ghostly spirits,” says Denny, who was inducted into the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Hall of Fame in 2021. “In reality, it was small amounts of methane gas escaping into the atmosphere from the anaerobic decay of peat.”

That spooky otherworldliness seems to make those bogs and fens the perfect setting to find another of Ohio’s other slightly scary natural phenomena that reside there: carnivorous plants. But not to worry — the specially adapted flora only prey upon insects, not humans.

Northern pitcher plant

Pitcher plants, as their name implies, have a basal rosette of colorful pitcher-like leaves incredibly well designed for attracting, trapping, and consuming insects. “Upon landing on the collar of a leaf, prey, such as a wasp, hangs on while lapping up nectar, which, by some accounts, contains an intoxicant that seems to disorient its victim,” Denny says. There’s an ample supply of sweet nectar, but the surface also contains hundreds of stiff, downward-pointing bristles, directing the victim into the depths of the leaf. Just below the bristle zone is a smooth, slippery surface, where the prey eventually loses its footing.

Microscopic magnification shows the slick zone is made up of special cells laid down one atop the other, like shingles on a roof. The cells are both sticky and easily dislodged. As the victim struggles to keep from sliding further into the plant, cells break off and adhere to its feet and body, weighing it down and accelerating its plunge into the liquid contents of the pitcher-like leaf. The prey eventually drowns and sinks to the bottom of the pitcher, where it is digested and its nutrients absorbed into the plant.

We all take a trip down memory lane once in a while, reminiscing about special times and meaningful life events. Beth Sanders, founder of LifeBio, has made it her mission to document those trips — to improve the quality of life for older adults by preserving their family history, one life story at a time.

It started in the 1990s. Sanders’ grandmother, Margaret Stitzinger, had early-stage dementia, so Sanders decided to conduct an interview with her to learn more about the family. What she found were vivid memories, such as the flu epidemic of 1918; growing up in Erie, Pennsylvania; and getting married.

“I didn’t know my grandma as much as I thought I should,” says Sanders, a member of URE–Union Rural Electric Cooperative in Marysville. “It was like discovering gold. I could have lost that information if I hadn’t taken the time to really talk to her.” Sanders compiled her grandmother’s biography and passed it along to family members at the funeral after her grandmother died a few years later.

That experience helped her realize two things: first, that she proudly came from a long line of strong, influential women; second, how important it was to engage with her grandmother, listen to her story, and record her family history before it was lost forever. “Listening is good for all of us,” Sanders says. “When they tell their story, it gives them purpose. There’s a reason they’re here.”

Sanders knew she could help aging adults improve the quality of their lives simply by helping them tell their life stories. It became her passion, which she turned into LifeBio in 2000.

The company initially focused on capturing life stories using journals and an online biography system. Since then, LifeBio, located in Marysville, has grown into a health-tech company, developing apps that are used by seniors, health care workers, health systems, and educators.

Today, LifeBio employs more than 45 people in 10 states and works with major health care plans

CO-OP PEOPLE

nationwide to provide memory-care services.

“We have to know people to deliver the best quality care for them,” Sanders says. “For us, it’s about the process, not the product.”

Her husband, Jeff, is LifeBio’s chief technology officer. He builds and oversees the company’s apps and works with the technology team to develop and introduce new initiatives. Together, they have developed three main programs for use in memory care.

MyHello is a social support program designed to reduce loneliness. It’s funded by a national health care plan. “Incredible technology has enabled us to connect people to each other,” Sanders says. “They sign up online or by phone, answer a few questions, and are matched with another participant. Then once per week for 13 weeks, the participants call each other at a designated time to share life experiences.”

MyHello aims to foster a feeling of connection, which in turn reduces depression. “We have done clinical studies that prove we reduce depression and

increase happiness by connecting people who can share stories and reminisce with one another,” Sanders says.

The LifeBio Memory app prompts users with a series of questions, encouraging them to recount life moments, and records and transcribes their responses. The app is the result of a substantial grant from the National Institute on Aging to improve the quality of care for people with dementia.

They’re currently developing a third component called LifeBio Brain, an app that will be used as a 10-minute cognitive screening tool for dementia. “We have partnered with Brown University to move the test away from being a paper-and-pencil test to an interactive app for users,” she says.

And there is more on the horizon. The Sanderses are looking to further expand the company and develop additional memory care initiatives.

“My legacy is helping others realize their legacy,” she says, “thus helping people experience more love, hope, and peace.”

“It was like discovering gold. I could have lost that information if I hadn’t taken the time to really talk to her.”

GUERNSEY-MUSKINGUM

ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE CURRENTLY SPEAKING

MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER

Capital credits differentiate cooperatives

Cooperatives like Guernsey-Muskingum Electric are special because they are owned by the consumers or members they serve and because they are guided by a set of seven principles that reflect the best interests of those members:

1. Voluntary and Open Membership

2. Democratic Member Control

3. Members’ Economic Participation

4. Autonomy and Independence

5. Education, Training, and Information

6. Cooperation Among Cooperatives

7. Concern for Community

This month, I want to discuss the principle of Members’ Economic Participation. Members contribute equitably to, and democratically control, the capital of their cooperative. At least part of that capital remains the common property of the cooperative, which allocates surpluses for any or all of the following purposes: developing the cooperative through maintaining and upgrading the electric distribution system and business infrastructure; setting up reserves; benefiting members in proportion to their transactions with the cooperative; and supporting other activities approved by the membership.

What does that mean for you as a member of Guernsey-Muskingum Electric?

Each time you pay your electric bill, you make an investment in Guernsey-Muskingum Electric Cooperative. For instance, if the cooperative’s margins were about 5 % of total revenue, that means for each

$100 you paid for electric service, $5 was credited to your capital account. GMEC retains this capital until the financial condition of the cooperative permits the return of the money to the member. To allow more members to have an opportunity to share in a general retirement of capital credits, our method of retiring capital credits is a percentage of the total capital method. This means that each member will receive a refund for a percentage of the total capital in his or her account. This usually occurs as a separate line-item credit on the member’s December bill. Members who leave our lines receive a check once the amount refunded equals $30

Every year, the cooperative notifies each member/owner of the amount of capital credits he or she has been assigned for the prior year. This notification is included in the note area on the bill for current members, or a letter is mailed to former members who are no longer receiving service from Guernsey-Muskingum.

Why is this “special” or “di erent”?

When it comes to that surplus, investor-owned utilities (also known as IOUs) pay that money out to shareholders, not the customers they serve. These are people or companies from around the world that own stock in the company. These are the same companies that wouldn’t build electric lines to rural areas because it wasn’t “worth it.”

Please take a minute to check the list of members with unclaimed capital credits on the following pages and if you see a name you know, have that person contact us. And remember to always keep your address updated with us, even if you move out of our service territory, so you get back your investment.

Guernsey-Muskingum sends two on Youth Tour

Katie Carlisle and Gracie Ehrick were selected to represent Guernsey-Muskingum Electric Cooperative this year on the Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. Katie and Gracie joined approximately 36 other students from around Ohio — and 1,200 students from other electric co-ops in 28 states — for the seven-day, all-expenses-paid trip.

The Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives Youth Tour is an annual youth leadership experience for high school students from families served by electric cooperatives. As part of their tour of the nation’s capital, students met with members of their congressional delegations, visited Arlington National Cemetery, and attended a performance at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

Katie, a junior at Marysville High School, is the daughter of Steve Carlisle of New Philadelphia and Marnie Fredrickson of Marysville. Gracie, a senior at Philo High School, is the daughter of William and Traci Ehrick of Zanesville.

For more photos and information about the students’ experiences on the 2023 Youth Tour, follow on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/ohioyouthtour) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/ohioyouthtour/).

Energy-efficient windows provide comfort and savings

According to the Department of Energy, heat gain and loss through windows consumes 25 % to 30 % of residential heating and cooling energy use, so upgrading or improving your windows can boost your home’s energy e ciency.

Start by identifying the kind of windows you have. Are they single-pane or double-pane? Are the frames metal, wood, or vinyl? Some manufacturers etch the make and model numbers in a corner of the glass, so you can look up the model’s information.

Single-pane windows and double-pane windows with metal frames are the least energy e cient. The lower the e ciency of your existing windows, the higher the potential for energy savings if you replace them.

You have several options for improving your windows, ranging from replacement windows or storm windows to budget-friendly repairs.

Window e ciency

Several components can make windows more e cient. High-quality frame materials insulate and reduce heat transfer. Two or more panes of glass with space in between improve the window’s insulation capability. Warm edge spacers hold the panes of glass the proper distance apart and help insulate the edges of the panes. Low-emissivity coatings applied to the glass reflect infrared light, keeping heat in during the winter and out during the summer.

If you want to replace your existing windows, shopping for ENERGY STAR-certified windows is a good place to start. ENERGY STAR sets specific U-factor and SHGC requirements based on your geography, so you get the best fit for your location. Replacement windows offer additional benefits, like improved operability and aesthetics. Keep in mind that this can be an expensive upgrade.

Storm windows are a lower-cost solution for some homes. Traditional storm windows are made with clear glass. Low emissivity storm windows provide energy savings similar to replacement windows at about a third of the cost.

Storm windows are mounted inside or outside existing windows and are available in operable styles, so you can still open and close your windows. Look for ENERGY STAR-certified models.

If you want to maintain the historic architecture of your existing windows, low-e storm windows are a great option. Some companies can refit your existing window frames with custom double-pane glass and weatherstripping.

As with any home improvement project, be sure to get multiple quotes to compare pricing and scope of work. You may find additional savings with rebates from your electric co-op, or state or federal tax credits for window upgrades.

blocks

Window e ciency is rated in U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coe cient, or SHGC. U-factor measures heat transfer through the window, which relates to how well it insulates. The lower the U-factor, the more e cient the window. The SHGC measures how effectively the window blocks heat from the sun.

Replacement and maintenance

If new windows or storm windows are not in the budget, your best bet is to maintain your existing windows. Keep the paint and caulking on the exterior in good condition. That will help prevent damage from the elements. Caulk around the inside trim, ensure sash locks are installed properly, and make certain windows seal tightly when locked. You may choose from a variety of weatherstripping types for windows to keep drafts at bay.

Whether you replace or make improvements to what you have, adding e ciency to your windows will add year-round comfort to your home.

Energy efficiency Tip of the month

Did you know fall is the perfect time to schedule a tune-up for your heating system? Home heating accounts for a large portion of winter energy bills, and no matter what kind of system you have, you can save energy and money by regularly maintaining your equipment.

Combining proper equipment maintenance and upgrades with recommended insulation, air sealing, and thermostat settings can save about 30% on your energy bills.

Small town, BIG sounds

When Lora Lynn Snow first saw the inside of the Ariel Opera House in 1987, the first thing she noticed, of course, was the quarter-century’s worth of bird droppings that coated just about everything. But almost immediately, she saw beyond the disrepair of the once-spectacular Gallipolis theater. Where others could only see pigeon poop, Snow saw possibilities.

“I ignored the piles of rubble,” Snow remembers. “I heard the building singing, and it was love at first sight.”

Today, thanks to that love affair — and a lot of hard work — Gallipolis (population 3,300) is home to one of the most distinctive, if unlikely, symphonies in the country. The Ohio Valley Symphony, replete with tubas, French horns, cellos, bass violins, flutes, harps, trumpets, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, and more, begins its 34th season of performance at the Ariel this month.

The hills that hem in this tiny Ohio River town on the southern tip of the state are truly alive with the sound of music.

Homecoming

But it wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for Snow. An oboist who grew up in Charleston, West Virginia, Snow had earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Ohio State before moving to Arkansas.

There, she played in several ensembles and taught at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock for a time before she and her husband decided they needed a change. “It was so hot, just an oppressive heat,” she says.

So they moved back closer to home, to Gallia County, in 1980. She taught music in the Gallia County Local School District and at the University of Rio Grande and played in several regional symphonies and chamber groups.

It actually took a few years before she discovered her calling.

Discovery

The French refugees who settled Gallipolis in the late 1700s had brought with them a strong appreciation for the arts, and that influence has always been apparent. It’s no surprise that the Ariel sprang up there in 1895 at the height of the “opera house” movement. The Ariel hosted music and theater programs, vaudeville acts, and movies for decades.

Eventually, though, Hollywood’s economics overpowered the Ariel, and the theater shuttered in the early 1960s. It stayed that way for 25 years. Snow, growing dissatisfied with her experiences with cutthroat musicians and taskmaster conductors, decided she wanted to start her own symphony, one that would operate in her own kinder, gentler way.

But in tiny Gallipolis? There were plenty of snickers and skepticism at first, but she knew she could count on the area’s rich arts history to draw upon. What she didn’t have was a proper venue — until someone mentioned the town’s old, decrepit opera house.

“I had no idea the Ariel was there,” Snow says. “I finagled my way inside, and the acoustics were phenomenal. They just don’t build them like that anymore.”

Tiny Gallipolis is home to one of the nation’s most unlikely symphonic success stories.
22  OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • SEPTEMBER 2023

Rejuvenation

Right away, Snow began raising funds. She held a community cleaning party. She even consulted the Centers for Disease Control about the best way to remove pigeon droppings. So, long before COVID-19 made N-95 s an everyday sight, masked stagehands went high into the rafters to methodically uncover the Ariel’s former glory, from the top down.

The Ohio Valley Symphony performed its first concert on April 1, 1989, and officially moved into the Ariel at its grand reopening on June 9, 1990. Renovations have continued in the years since, and the Ariel today hosts not only the OVS, but a bevy of other events: music and theater productions, arts classes, even weddings. To this day, Snow still plays with the symphony as its principal oboist. So if something is “off,” whether with acoustics in the hall or chemistry among the musicians, she’ll know about it.

Small-town nice

Snow is the only musician in the symphony who’s based in Gallipolis. Most come in from larger cities like Pittsburgh or Cincinnati — drawn, Snow says, by the OVS’s reputation as a nice place to play, in terms of the

venue and the personalities of the ensemble and the entire town. Members of the community, in fact, house many of the visiting musicians, which helps to foster bonds between the community and the symphony.

Concertmaster Manami White, for example, an awardwinning and internationally acclaimed violinist based in Cincinnati, says she herself has enjoyed that experience and that lifelong friendships have been forged because of those opportunities.

It’s led to a loyal and supportive following in Gallipolis, as locals who might otherwise have never stepped foot in a symphony hall have been drawn to the Ariel. The quality of the programming, of course, doesn’t hurt, either.

“When you go to a concert, it should give you shivers, make you gasp,” Snow says. “Art without that is pretty empty. If you care for the artists and provide a positive work environment, the audience will notice. We have a rep as a nice place to play.”

Snow says that, inevitably, newly arrived musicians will finish their first gigs and tell her, often incredulously, how much fun they had.

“Working hard and having fun are not exclusive,” Snow says. “I’ve always felt doing both was a good thing.”

The symphony’s 34th season

Sept. 16 — “Around the Campfire,” with guest conductor Luke Frazier, founder of the American Pops Orchestra.

Nov. 4 “Salute to Our Veterans,” with Carl Topilow, founding conductor of the Cleveland Pops.

Dec. 2 — “The Christmas Show!” — with Steven Huang, newly named conductor of the New Westchester Symphony in White Plains, N.Y.

March 16 — “The Enigmatic Elgar,” conducted by François López-Ferrer, resident conductor of the Académie of the Opéra de Paris.

April 27 — “Brahms and Beyond,” conducted by West Virginia State Philharmonic director Scott E. Woodard.

Every concert ticket includes a 6:45 p.m. pre-concert chat with the maestro and soloist of the evening, as well as a post-concert reception.

Back in time at the

peggy Kelly first attended the Ohio Renaissance Festival about 15 years ago. Even then, the festival had been a well-established mecca of history-meets-fantasy escapism that drew attendees by the tens of thousands to Waynesville during autumn weekends each year.

Kelly, a member of Butler Rural Electric Cooperative in Oxford, remembers enjoying the merrymaking at the time, but still wasn’t fully enthralled enough to make it an annual pilgrimage. But after she decided to give it another go, now she’s all-in.

“The first time I went, I thought it was fun,” Kelly says. “But we went again about five years ago, and that’s when it really got in my blood. It’s grown. There are more shows now, more things to look at, and different themed weekend activities, and I really enjoy it.”

The festival lasts eight to nine weeks, and Kelly, who is a season passholder, says she’ll typically attend six to eight times during that period. She attends often enough that she says her husband knows exactly where she’s headed if she gets up early — and that she’ll be gone for most of the day.

A rich history

Established in 1990 by Cincinnati entrepreneur Peter Carroll, the RenFaire (as loyal fans know it) has evolved

into a premier event that invites attendees to step into a re-created 16th-century English village, where they can rub elbows with royalty or feast with fairies.

“When you step through the gate, you can leave your cares in the parking lot and get away for the day,” says Cheryl Bucholtz, a member of Lancaster-based South Central Power Company and the Renaissance Festival’s marketing director.

And that’s exactly the appeal for folks like Kelly. “I usually go with my family, but I have also gone by myself before and you are just so welcomed by everybody,” she says. “The characters, everybody that dresses up, and the staff, they are all just a fun bunch of people to be with.”

The festival started as a weekend event on a small field in Warren County, and over the years, it has grown into one of the largest and longest-running in the nation. Depending on weather, more than 200,000 festivalgoers may enter the now-permanent grounds on September and October weekends.

A full-time staff of seven spearheads the planning and execution of the festival year-round. During festival days, however, the staff balloons to between 500 and 750 people, encompassing volunteers and workers who

26  OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • SEPTEMBER 2023

contribute to the smooth operation of the event. “I love that they bring in groups like the Scouts and local school choirs to help,” Kelly says. “It’s a great way for those groups to raise funds and to support the community.”

Continued growth

With an additional 5 acres added to the grounds in 2023, the nearly 40 acres now can accommodate even more vendors, food and beverage options, shaded seating areas, and entertainment.

“The festival’s mission is to create unforgettable experiences where history and fantasy collide,” Bucholtz says. “To ensure success, the festival strives for ongoing growth while maintaining its dedication to delivering unforgettable experiences.”

The Renaissance Festival successfully meets its mission by striking a delicate balance between historical authenticity and imaginative elements.

Visitors like Kelly enjoy a rich tapestry of entertainment, including jousting, musicians, strolling characters, and troupes such as the Swordsmen, the Cincinnati Barbarians, and the awe-inspiring Kamikaze Fireflies.

Peggy Kelly (bottom photo, center) attends the Ohio Renaissance Festival both alone and with her family during the course of the event. She says the jousting (shown above) is among her favorite events.
Continued on page 28

Something for everyone

The festival also boasts a diverse group of vendors offering handmade wares such as glassware, clothing, jewelry, pottery, home décor, and various crafts. Kelly also enjoys the many different types of food available during the festival.

“I think the joust show is probably one of my favorite things and one of the most popular shows, because everybody seems to want to see that,” she says. “They always get a really good crowd.”

Kelly’s grandson was knighted by the royal court last year at the Renaissance Festival and has since left for boot camp. She says he should be home in early September, and Kelly looks forward to taking him back to the festival when he gets back.

“Some people really, really get into it, to the point where the entire family in some way, shape, or form is dressed in character,” says Kelly, who also dresses in character when she attends. “One year, I saw a stroller transformed into a castle. Some people are so creative and artistic and just have fun with it.”

The amazing Fred Norton

Two weeks before he graduated from Lakeside High School in May 1912, Fred William Norton competed in the inaugural Ottawa County track meet. Amazingly, Fred brought home seven first-place ribbons and added four second-place finishes to carry Lakeside to the team championship.

As amazing as that might be, there is, in fact, no shortage of “amazings” in Fred Norton’s brief life. An only child born to working-class parents in the tiny Ohio quarry town of Marblehead in 1894, Norton excelled. At everything.

Most kids of the day ended schooling and began working full-time after eighth grade. But Norton took a different path. He entered Lakeside High School (now Danbury High) in 1908. Along with track, he also competed in football, baseball, and basketball, and he carried a 4.0 academic average all four years there.

According to the Lakeside Heritage Society, he also worked for a local railroad, operating a locomotive and cleaning and repairing buildings and equipment. He often clocked 10-hour days, six days a week.

After graduation, Norton left the peninsula for Ohio State University, where he continued to excel. He made his presence known on every court and field, and became Ohio State’s first four-sport letterwinner.

He was MVP of the baseball team in 1917, when he batted .442 to help secure OSU’s first Big Ten title. He was also captain of the basketball team, and he ran the quartermile in track. On the gridiron, Norton once scored six touchdowns in one half in a game against Indiana, but he was better known as a blocking back for Chic Harley on the famed 1916 squad that won the Big Ten title and ignited the program to become what it is today.

At the time of his graduation in 1917, Norton was being called the greatest all-around athlete in Ohio State University history.

Oh, and by the way, he also graduated with a degree in forestry with a 4.0 average, and was a member of Sphinx, the prestigious honorary society.

Reports of the time said he could have played pro baseball — word on the street was, the Pittsburgh Pirates were scouting him. But with World War I well underway, he chose a different path. While still at OSU, he enlisted in the Reserve Officers Training Corps, studying in the school’s military aeronautics program, and when he graduated, he joined the Army, in one of the earliest versions of what would become the U.S. Air Force.

In the spring of 1918, just hours before Norton set sail for France as a first lieutenant, he purchased the leather jacket that he would wear in the cockpit of the British fighter plane that he piloted as a member of the 27th Eagle Pursuit Air Squadron.

He saw action almost right away. Norton and his squad engaged in numerous attacks on German positions and aerial dogfights. He earned a Distinguished Service Cross for his bravery during one such dogfight over the skies of France in early July 1918.

But Norton’s courage and skills could not best fate: On July 20, 1918, as his squadron was returning from a battle behind enemy lines, he took two rounds from a German fighter and died two days later.

At 24, Norton was the first OSU graduate to die in the war. He was laid to rest, along with 6,011 of his countrymen, at Oise-Aisne American Cemetery, 70 miles east of Paris.

And while Norton died more than a century ago, he is not forgotten. At OSU, Norton House residence hall has been home to tens of thousands of students since 1963. From 1923 until the early ’50s, Norton Field served as an airfield in the Columbus area. And at Danbury High School in Lakeside, the Norton Award is presented each year to deserving, highachieving seniors.

After Norton’s death, his mother received a package labeled “Personal effects,” but she could not bear to open it. She gave it to a neighbor, who stored it away. Years later, the neighbor’s family opened the box and found his leather jacket and a pair of French hospital tags inside, among other items. They’re now on display in the Early Years section of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Dayton.

Norton was inducted into the OSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2010.

The student, athlete, and war hero from long ago goes down in history as one of OSU’s greats.
