County approaching drop in COVID status I JUST DON’T WANT PEOPLE TO LET UP. WHAT WE’RE DOiNG iS WORKiNG; STAY AT iT. GAREN RHOME

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The falling COVID numbers in Harrison County seen the past few weeks continued when Health Administrator Garen Rhome reported at Wednesday’s Harrison County Commissioner’s meeting, that just eight cases were registered since last week.

That is by far the lowest seen in several months. The county is still in the alert-

Red status but that may change in the next week or two.

Another positive sign was that zero cases were recorded for the previous day (Tuesday), which said he couldn’t remember when the last time that had happened.

“That’s a very good sign as well,” he told the board. “I just don’t want people to let up. What we’re doing is working, stay at it.”

And the ever important occurrence

rate, which dictates what level the county falls under had also dropped in the positive direction. The number that the county needs to meet in order to lower its alert status from Red is under 100 per 100,000 cases.

Last week that number had dropped to 152 and Rhome on Wednesday announced that number around 120, which is as close as it’s been in a long time.

Rhome added that one ingredient that goes into these numbers is the number of cases in a two-week period, which he said was 19 for the recent count. That number is also down from where it was two weeks ago (mid-20s).

Total cases for Harrison County stand at 1018 (1010 last week) with presumed recovered at 979, which is just four above last week. Active cases are at 19, which is up from 12 last week. The number of deceased though,

saw its highest jump when the number went from last week’s 19 to 24 this week. A memo released by Rhome explains the results due to a changed process.

The news release announced a new way of collecting mortality rate data by “using certificate data from the Electronic Death Registration System (EDRS) as the sole source of information for deaths reported on the state’s COVID-10 dashboards.”

A memo released by Rhome explained the process, which is why it affected the county’s number of deaths from 19 to 24.

“In the past, ODH has reported Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) mortality data daily, and reconciled that information with verified death certificate data from EDRS. Today, EDRS data will become the sole source of that information,” the memo reads

in part.

“The problem is we don’t know what the finish line is,” Commissioner Don Bethel said when Rhome talked of keeping vigilant till the end. He said the goal was in vaccinating a “large percent of everybody who is interested and eligible in the county and throughout Ohio, so that’s going to be the finish line.”

Rhome said vaccination eligibility was now open to more categories with data collection involving the 60 to 64 age group. He added that due to the supply and demand that is out there, that group won’t actually be called but their information is now being collected for signing up.

“We’re still working with the older folks,” Rhome explained and said the

Cadiz coach gets NFL call

BALTIMORE – If paying your dues means spending 35 years in the coaching ranks since his graduation from Miami of Ohio, then Cadiz’s Jay Peterson ought to be the poster child for earning wings. But early in February Jay finally got the call from the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens to be their assistant linebackers coach.

That call came on his birthday and it couldn’t have been a better present than getting it through a former teammate from Miami than the coach himself, John Harbaugh where they played together at Miami.

Jay graduated from Cadiz in 1980 after playing running back and the safety position. He then moved on to Oxford where he played running back for the RedHawks. After that he immediately moved into the coaching ranks by returning to Cadiz and working alongside coach Vince Siriano. After three years in his first stint as a coach he moved onto bigger things and worked at Cincinnati high schools, Anderson and Withrow till 1990.

Then in 1991 Jay snared his first college coaching job at his alma mater in Oxford coaching linebackers, his position of choice. And he does love defense.

“Yes, yes, all the way. I’m a defensive coach,” he said. The job at Miami University was his longest up until then lasting till 1998 where he also helped with special teams. Jay then moved onto the Big Ten Conference and Northwestern where he coached with another former Miami coach in Randy Walker, which lasted until 2003.

“Loved it,” Jay said about Northwestern but expanded that affection to all his jobs. “I loved everywhere I’ve been. I just love coaching.” He talked of the trials of moving and said it was “harder on the family” as they have to do it alone for months at a time whereas the coach has immersed himself in the job. He said it’s preferable that the children would finish the school year at their current school, as opposed to pulling them out and into a new one in the middle of the school year, which keeps the family apart even longer.

Sprinkled in between were three internships with NFL teams where he took part in the NFL Minority Coaching Internships beginning in 1995 with the Indianapolis Colts, the Detroit Lions in 1997 and the Chicago Bears in 2001.

“I knew it was something that I wanted to do…” Jay said. He described the experience as basically getting “your feet wet” and a basic introduction of the NFL level of coaching. He said the education came from working with the position coaches and

NEW PHILADELPHIA – January’s Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) meeting it was announced that a new vendor would be needed for the Tappan Lake Marina when construction is all done. Last month it was Atwood’s turn but it was to announce the renewal for their vendor in Kathy’s Cookies, Candy & Catering.

Chief of Recreation Ryan McCleaster told the board that under $750 Kathy’s Cookies would be responsible for repairs but the District could step in for 50 percent beyond $750 for equipment repair.

The contract renewal is good through the 2023 season.

Executive Director Craig Butler asked how the MWCD compares with others in keeping “within the realm of normalcy.” McCleaster said he called on Cleveland Metro Parks who he said leased their concessions out to a third party Jay Peterson

taking part in all the meetings.

“It’s a very, very good introduction you know, you don’t say anything but you’re there and taking it all in and just being a sponge,” jay explained. He added that those sessions were only for the training camps and not the entire year so he was able to go back to his regular coaching job.

Jay’s responsibility picked up where he served as defensive coordinator at Eastern Michigan from 2004 to 2008 then onto Illinois State till 2010. He returned to Miami for three more seasons then back to Eastern Michigan as his only offensive coaching job where he served as running back’s coach through 2018. He finished off his college stint serving at Wayne State for two years before taking 2020 off due to COVID. “I didn’t feel comfortable coaching on the offensive side of the ball,” he said but being a former running back himself made it easier to adapt and share his experiences. Then he got the call.

The initial call actually came from defensive coordinator Wink Martindale then Harbaugh dialed in a week later to confirm the offer. And the difference between college and the pros? “It’s all football” in the NFL. In college there is recruiting, class schedules, watching over many more athletes as NFL teams have limited rosters.

Bowerston seeks water-wastewater improvements

By JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Bowerston is yet another village within Harrison County that is attempting to improve on their infrastructure with water and wastewater improvements and expansion to other areas in hopes of adding 42 new customers.

Bob Allen of E.L. Robinson Engineering spoke at Wednesday’s commissioner’s meeting and called the improvements “significant.”

“In going through this one of the things the village would like to do is to extend water service in two areas and wastewater service in one area,” Allen explained. He said this work would cross the county line (Carroll County) adding that from what he understood, anytime a village seeks to provide service outside “of their corporate limits” they must receive permission from the commissioners.

in the beginning. But they now manage it in house and McCleaster said that MWCD was “in line with what they came in at.”

He added that managing concessions in house was something the MWCD could

look at in the future. He said those calls included a few other park districts as well.

“I feel very confident and comfortable that as of right now, we are in line with our leases,” McCleaster explained.

Also asked was if Kathy’s Cookies is prepared for possible larger crowds with some extra amenities planned, such as the Whoazone that was announced

last week. McCleaster said the vendor is aware of these new amenities and everyone was basically “anticipating a busier season.” The Whoazone are inflatables that are coming to Atwood and Pleasant Hill.

Also, concerning the Clean Ohio Trails fund was an MWCD request for $150,000 that Butler said was an 80/20 match for Tappan Lake.

SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 2021

McCleaster said it involved the “beach trail” which is a project to cover from the beach area to the new campgrounds with a trail on top of a utility corridor.

An easement was also addressed concerning Pleasant Hill. The Firelands Electric Cooperative easement is a small one, as described by Butler. He said this covers just .13 acres for an “underground electric line to

be installed.”

“We spent undoubtedly, way more time than money processing this than was necessary and I’m trying to think of how we find a default here that would allow this to perhaps go forward without us spending the same amount of time on a project this size, as it was a much larger one,” Butler stated after informing the board

discussions had already taken place with several entities involved.

He recommended finding a better way to streamline this type of process but also recommended the board approve noting a review of the “final language” of the agreement when it’s delivered.

The board followed through with the approval.

Black History Month celebrates Cadiz’s own William H. Lucas

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com HARRISON COUNTY – Though, he was born in Virginia, William H. Lucas Sr. became a staple of leadership in Harrison County and a record holder as well. Lucas, the former village clerk, still holds the distinction of having served the longest in public office history with nearly 60 years served.

“To Lucas goes the probable national record of having held an elective office longer than any other man in the United States…” wrote a Columbus Dispatch reporter in 1935. In that year Lucas, at age 84, was beginning an astounding 54th consecutive year in public service, mostly as town clerk.

Coming from a slave state, he picked the right area in Cadiz as they had the unusual distinction for its time of having a school for black children. Lucas was rejected, though, when trying to enroll in Cadiz High School so he entered The School for Colored youth, (as it was called back then) in 1859 “at the age of six and completed its seven year course with distinction.”

He became the first black man to graduate from Cadiz High School after a third attempt in 1870.

Before then, he returned to Virginia in 1866 and opened a

school to the children of newly freed slaves. He then returned to Cadiz in 1867 where he resumed his education. He also worked for Congressman John Bingham, the man who prosecuted the assassins of President Abraham Lincoln.

Lucas continued teaching again for the local school for black children and became principal of the Dunbar school.

But impressiveness runs in the family when his father Josiah Lukas, as was the spelling in his slave days, achieved a colossal effort in not only gaining his own freedom for he and his wife-to-be, but paved the way for a much better life for his son.

For Jason Lucas the great, great, great nephew of Josiah and wife Yolanda, their odyssey in delving into the past began 10 years ago and now have a little family history displayed in their memorial chapel, which is part of the Lucas Funeral Home in Garfield Heights just outside Cleveland.

Through family Josiah’s freedom papers were handed down to Yolanda for safe keeping. It is a piece of paper that is not only 168 years old but probably so rare, it would be hard pressed to find others that are not stored inside a museum.

“I love sharing the Lucas Legacy story!” Yolanda said this week.

“I've had community exhibits,

talked to schools and community centers. It's an inspiring family story, that 6th generations achieved their dreams. It's amazing! It wasn't easy being African American!

Many obstacles! However, they didn't give-up. Their Faith, Family and unbreakable spirit is the common thread in all of the generations.

“William H. Lucas Sr., set a high bar of achievement!

He accomplished so much in his lifetime. He accomplished a lot of "Firsts" for the African- American Community. Especially, the First County Elected Official in Cadiz, Ohio. First Black to graduate from Cadiz High school.”

Traveling back into the past again, Josiah was able to negotiate a deal with his slaveholder that if he built parquet floors in several of his master’s buildings, he would be granted his freedom papers. And that’s just what he did as it took Josiah approximately two years to complete the meticulous work. But that was only part of the story as his impressive sojourn went even farther when after marrying, Josiah walked for three years to reach Cadiz working odd jobs along the way, according to Yolanda.

Josiah developed into a master carpenter doing work for many people after settling in Ohio. He and his wife Elizabeth both died in 1910 but by then William was

already 60 years old and would live another 31. But he was born free because of the efforts of his father and bringing him to Cadiz where he saw the early growth of a small community and more than likely, surpassing his father’s wildest dreams of accomplishment.

“Mr. Lucas’s passing carries away one of the few remaining links of a period during which this community was greatly built up,” read the County Seat Mirror in 1982 quoting a Cadiz Republican article after his death in February 1942. “He saw the town expand, street by street, and helped with one improvement after another.

Until very recently, he could tell in detail every important event since the Civil War. But few men are privileged to serve his community as he was, and for so long a time.”

Now, every Black History Month the Lucas’s proudly display their family history (lucasfuneralhome.com).

And where once Yolanda held onto those precious Freedom Papers for many years where the significance hadn’t penetrated her modern life, the legacy is now front and center in her family’s life.

“Every generation had a dream.....and they all made their dreams come true. Worked hard and overcame many obstacles.”

Frederick McGee recognized for Black History Month

By ESTHER MCCOY Black History is celebrated during the month of February and many heroes and those who have given their best, and sometimes their lives, have been honored or noted through military programs during this time. One who has become noted in Jefferson, Harrison and Belmont counties, along with others who committed valorous stints in battle is Cpl, Frederick Bernard McGee of Smithfield..

The brave young soldier who graduated from Wayne High School was the recipient of the Silver Star and two Purple Hearts for his acts of heroism in bringing wounded from his platoon, situated on a high hill, lowering his comrades down for critical care when the hill fell under fire at Hill 528 Tang-Wan-Ni on a sweltering day on June 1952. He

was wounded twice during the battle that raged on about him, once in the leg and once in the face. When ordered to withdraw, he continued lowering the wounded from the high hilltop to ground level with a cord or rope about their body to be treated.

For his steadfastness in rescuing those who served together it was thought the should have been rewarded with the Medal of Honor. But this did not happen.

Members of his group still battle for this award to be presented.

Area veteran groups and the region congressional delegation have been clamoring for the Medal of Honor to still be presented following his Jan. 3, 2022, death. His family was present at the Steubenville Umpires Association meeting and a plaque recognizing his work for the area in baseball was awarded.

Fred McGee is holding an enlarged copy of the American battles in Korean in a magazine. He is accompanied by a granddaughter.

JEWETT – The new meter readers for the village of Jewett have been in place for a few months now and after a recent change in configuring usage, things have been working well.

Clerk of Water & Public Affairs Rhonda Harris said Wednesday she is still waiting on Sensus, the company that provided the new meters, for new contract dates.

Since the village converted over to a per gallon reading instead of per one thousand gallons, she said she needs to know how to measure leak adjustments “on the sewage end.”

“How do you know how much to credit someone?” she asked council. “Because before we did thousand gallons and I could credit you a thousand gallons you know, that way but since it’s actual gallons, I want to do it correctly for when we get audited,” Harris explained.

Council Member Bo Bailey offered for someone from council to call after Harris said she wasn’t getting a reply from Sensus. She said that could be done but one of her questions was the “timeframe of the contract.” Bailey said they would call and see if that works out better.

Police Chief Ron Carter gave a

brief report stating 44 calls were taken since the last meeting and 38 people were cited out of 86 traffic stops. Three drug seizures with one possession of drugs and several juvenile issues were all part of his report.

Water-Sewer Superintendent Charlie Harris said they have found a company to do sand blasting and paint work at their water plant. But Clerk Treasurer Linda Ager said the estimate was for $23,000.

“There’s still money left, contingency money in the loan but they wanted council to talk about it tonight whether you want to go ahead with it or not,” she informed them. She and

Harris said the company was from around East Liverpool and provided the quote after eyeing the job in person. Council Member Dan Dray’s motion to get the water plant work done was approved.

Harris also said he’d received two loads of salt for this winter but only two buckets were used from the last one. He said Morton Salt from Zanesville was the supplier. Also, Council Member Dennis Hirschbach asked about catch basins and what could be done. Harris said the plan was to clean them out and in order to see what the problem is.

So We’re Here to Treat You!

Good News

By Pastor Ken Staley:

Pleasant Grove & Harrisville United Methodist Churches

It’s Never too Late to Meditate Too many times when someone says it’s time to pray the reply might be, “You mean it’s come down to that?” Why is prayer and meditation one of the hardest “tasks” that a Christian can do?

After all, the God of the universe is on the other end of the line and He desires to be with you. There are some who would rather read Leviticus…twice than to have to hunker down and reach heaven.

Real meditation requires that we take time away from all the other stuff we normally do and pause to think about God’s goodness in our life, thank him for it, and pray for others. And that’s really the first step in a life of consistent prayer and meditation, taking the time.

There’s no other way around it.

We just have to tough it out and do it. Jesus’ example to follow was

to get secluded, to get away from all the interruptions. That could mean leaving the cell phone in another room with the ringer down. I know, pretty drastic stuff for this day and age. The best thing about being secluded is the silence. We may even have to work at it, but it’s worth it.

Have you tried it lately? A time of silence is like taking a shower after cutting the grass in August; you feel better and you’re much more pleasing to be around. Once we are secluded and silent then comes the toughest part…stillness of mind.

Whether you’re a new Christian or a seasoned believer, keeping your mind from wandering is the biggest challenge. We have to push through because the reward is too great to pass up. The best part is that feeling of inner peace

Around the County

Hello March!

March came in like a lion and we are hoping it goes out like a lamb. I am sure everyone is ready for some warm sunny dry days after the February snow and ice we had. Do not forget to turn your clocks up as we spring forward on March 14. According to a report we will gain 18

minutes of daylight each week through May. As the weather and days change why not get out and enjoy Harrison County. Take a walk or bike ride around Sally Buffalo, the Conotton Creek trail where you can see lots of different wildlife including bald eagles, or fishing at one of our three lakes in the

that only Jesus can give.

There are times when you’ll hear the Holy Spirit give clear direction for that certain situation in your life. Then it’s our turn to obey what we’ve heard. Our lives can be turned around simply by investing our time in the eternal.

The first thing King David said right out of the gate in Psalm 1 is, “How happy is the one who does not walk in the advice of the wicked or stand with sinners or sit with mockers but instead, his delight is in the Lord’s instruction, and he meditates on it day and night.”

Our Christian life is not just a Sunday morning event but a day and night event. When we meditate on the words of God, we meditate on God himself.

Meditation is simply the act of pondering how scripture applies

to you personally and asking the Lord how you are to proceed in every area of your life. Jesus said, “When you pray, get in your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

It’s the reward of getting to know Him better, the reward of getting the answers we need and the reward of standing in the gap for fellow believers who desperately need our intercession.

The apostle Paul wrote to the Philippians, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” The God who spoke the world into existence is waiting to hear your requests.

Rev. Foster to serve New Rumley UMC NEW RUMLEY — Rev. Mick Foster has been appointed to serve The New Rumley United Methodist Church as their pastor effective March 7. Pastor Mick, son of the late Joe and Dixie Foster, grew up on Route 332 just before the county line outside of Scio. There he met and married Becky Falls and together they raised Bracken, Tara, Seth and Bethany, and God has blessed them with 10 grandchildren. They recently retired and bought a home on Easy Street in New Philadelphia

and Becky’s mother, Kathleen Falls, 98 years old, lives with them.

Some of Mick’s earliest memories in Harrison County include the New Athens and the Scio United Methodist Churches. Jesus found him at the age of 29 in the EUB United Methodist Church in New Rumley, where He prepared him for full-time ministry. So it is like coming back home to New Rumley UMC for Mick and Becky, and they look forward to welcoming and

worshipping with family and friends in New Rumley.

Rev. Foster has served United Methodist Churches in Mesopotamia (Painesville District), West Bellaire and Neffs (St. Clairsville District), Cambridge Faith (Southern Hills District), Damascus (Mahoning Valley District), and most recently Broadway in New Philadelphia (Tuscarawas District).

Rev. Foster will be replacing Rev. Tom Snodgrass, who retired on Feb. 28, 2021.

a different format for the sake of space. It still is exactly as written but not in a line by line fashion.

Can we still order black coffee?

Are brownies being taken off the shelf? Is White Castle changing its name? I’m sure Cracker Barrel is screwed. Can we still play Chinese Checkers? Is it still called an Indian burn? No more Italian sausages?

How far do you want to go with this foolishness?

The name of Aunt Jemima has been changed. An ancestor of hers is unhappy about it. The names of many things and types of things

were given to honor, not to dishonor. But people in their being offended so easily are trying to say that naming things the way they did was to dishonor. Names of streets, highways, ball teams and many other things are being changed because of this idiocy.

Many monuments, statues, and other things have been destroyed.

They are historical facts and these people are trying to change history.

Changing history opens up the door to making the same mistakes and these mistakes are being repeated daily. People must wake

up and not only demand that these things need to be restored, but see to it that it is done.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor:

The family of Richard W Ankrom would like to thank everyone for their kind thoughts & words, cards, calls, & visits after Dick's passing. He meant so much to so many & brought such joy to everyone.

Losing him to COVID-19, we felt a private viewing was the only safe way for us to avoid the spread of this pandemic & not lose any other loved ones.

Thank You Marcia, Penny, Shawn, & Cindy

Dear Sir, It has become so commonplace for people to be offended. Most of it is over things that have existed for decades and much is part of history. There was nothing about which to be offended.

Names of things and places have been changed and many things have been destroyed. This type of thing was used widely by Hitler.

This is what is happening in our nation right now and has been.

These thoughts came up on Facebook. I am going to write it in

Sincerely, Mary Ruth Kidd Scio, Ohio To the Editor: The family of Don Shaw would like to extend our sincere thanks for the many cards, flowers, phone calls, prayers and other acts of kindness we have received.

As well as, the generous donations given in Don’s memory

to the Deersville Fire Department.

He would be honored.

We would like to send our appreciation to Clark-KirklandBarr Funeral Home and Jan Simpson for their kindness and assistance during Don’s services and to the American Legion, Deersville and Washington Township Fire Departments and EMS for their tributes to Don. Sincerely, Betty Jo, Heidi and Heather

JEWETT/CADIZ

By Ruby Foutz March is here and the last couple of days have been beautiful with the sun shining.

April 7, the Puskarich Library board plan to have a grand opening during National

opposed to a kid in college where he’ll just ride the bench but he keeps his scholarship.

“It’s their livelihood like it’s my livelihood,” he said of the NFL life. He raved about what he’s learning and just being around football under linebacker coach Rob Ryan.

“I am truly blessed,” he said of the whole experience. But Jay hasn’t forgotten any roots even

though he hasn’t been able to get back very often these days.

He mentioned a few of those old teammates like Mason Fowler and Kelly Santille for a shout out.

“Those are my guys and love them to death,” he said of the guys he grew up with playing every sport in the yards and playgrounds. But football is his life and coaching is all he ever

wanted to do.

“Everything I ever wanted to do was to be a coach and I don’t even consider it a job,” Jay gushed. He called it a calling and a passion and now he will channel all of that into the NFL ranks.

“My goal is to be the very best coach I can be and see what happens after that.”

anyone that has been diagnosed with Type-1 diabetes is now eligible to receive the COVID vaccine, and that means throughout Ohio. Rhome stated that they have vaccinated an

additional 350 people, which includes about 300 second doses and “fifty or sixty new doses since last week.”

Interestingly, the death ratios for the tri-state area as well as the country have not

changed in the past two weeks with Ohio (1.7), West Virginia (1.7) and Pennsylvania (2.5) all stationary. The same goes for the United States (1.7) and the world level (2.2).

that is also what he remembers it to be, which is why he and the Bowerston officials were there, “to make a first request and introduce this to the commissioners for consideration.” He added that he didn’t expect an immediate answer but just to ask the commissioners for a review of the project.

Bowerston Village Administrator Allen Case addressed the commissioners reminding them that service exists in Conotton at the “old LJ Plant.” He said the ambition was to extend further service into Conotton “to provide those people utilities.”

“I’ve already talked to several people in the town and they’re very excited to have that opportunity,” Case explained. He added that for extension into New Hagerstown the service stops at the end of Penn

Ave. He said it would involve only a “couple hundred more feet” before crossing into Carroll County. He said this would only involve the water system and not wastewater for this area.

“And the people in New Hagerstown that I’ve talked to so far, they’re also very eager to be hooked up to a city system to get water,” Case said. “Everybody has wells right now [and] kind of a pain for them.”

Bowerston’s Jack Ramsey said there might be around 20 customers “proposed on the Conotton extension for water and sewer hookup.” He said about 22 customers would be picked up for the New Hagerstown extension but again, would be for water only. “…This is just a piece of a larger scope, which includes rehabbing a

lot of the existing lines to the plants, tanks, water meters, things of that nature. So, it’s actually a pretty good sized project [and] we don’t know if we’re going to break this up into pieces or try to do it all at once,” Ramsey explained. He said funding will dictate part of that decision and Ramsey added that they were looking at a price of $4.5 million for wastewater upgrades. He said half of that would be for the water system.

“But we’re still in the planning stages so that number could change significantly based on our funding,” Case said.

Commissioner Paul Coffland said this would be reviewed and passed onto the prosecutor to decide what the next steps would be, or if there would be any additional issues.

Library Week. Thank you for sharing some of the renovation pictures.

Congratulations to the Harrison Community Hospital on their new agreement, an acquisition by West Virginia University.

Kudos to the Mayor John Migliore and his helpers on the possible business coming to Lincoln Avenue. You are doing a wonderful job as mayor.

Jewett Council will be checking fire hydrants in the near future. Not a bad idea for all villages to do. Also, for all residents to check out their smoke alarms and fire extinguishers. You never know when you might need them.

My husband and I would like to thank the Arbaugh family for keeping our driveway cleared of ice and snow. Thank you so much.

Prayers and get-well wishes to Lenny Stewart, Shirley Rogers, Joyce Dowdle, David & Karen Kinney, and Ina Marks.

Happy Birthday and many more to James L. Wolfe, Bruce

Arbaugh, Mary L. Mooney, John Birney, Johan Holmes, Allen L. Hill, Sharon Cline Wilson, and David Banta.

Prayers and deepest sympathy to the following families: Bernice Arlene Hyde 88 Piedmont; Denny (Mr. K) Kavarick Jewett; Robert "Curly" John Dixon 72 Cadiz; Richard "Dick" Lynn Miser 70 Jewett; Lawrence Samuel "Sam" Brindley 73 Deersville; and my dear friend Ruth Copeland Wenner 91 Cadiz (loved her picture). RIP Ruth.

Thank you for bringing Barbara E. Erbacher 79, Cadiz to our attention. We miss seeing her at the bank and dinners. We think of her often and miss seeing Vernon Norris. So a big hi out to Vernon.

Scripture for today: Matthew 7:21 (NRSV) How can we know when we are doing God's will? Read this scripture and others in Matthew for your answer. God bless you all. Love & prayers, Rev. Dr. Ruby Foutz, 740-946-2925.

Generals end Huskies 2020-21 campaign By: D.J. WATSON NH Sports Writer

WEST LAFAYETTE – In a glass half full world, we should all be happy that the Harrison Central boys basketball team made it to tournament play.

While a short run, a COVID free run was more than welcoming. The Huskies had their tournament journey cut short last weekend in the Sectional Championship, as they ran into a solid Ridgewood squad on the road and bowed out after the 55-47 setback.

The Huskies, who finished their season with a record of 1510, led the Generals at the break 22-21, and battled possession for possession with the 3rd seeded Generals through much of the second half. It wasn’t until the fourth quarter that the

Coshocton County outfit started to stretch their lead into a consistent two possession advantage. The two teams were so evenly matched, that neither side had finished off a frame by leading by more than a bucket going into the fourth quarter.

The Generals led 11-10 after the first, the squads switched roles at half, and the Generals posted a 35-33 advantage after three.

It was a balanced offensive attack in the second quarter that had the Huskies leading for a majority of the first half minutes. After a heavy dose of All-Ohio star Kobe Mitchell in the first quarter, the Huskies had four different players light the lamp in the second. Mitchell was the only Harrison player to score in the first eight minutes, keeping pace with the Generals as a team while dropping ten of

his game-high 26-points.

Freshman Hayden Cassidy, and senior Skylar Mazeroski both buried triples in the second.

Sophomore Jace Madzia added four timely marks, and Mitchell drained two free throws all in the second set to give the Huskies the first half edge.

At every moment it seemed the Generals were ready to pull away, a different man stepped up and reigned the outing back in for the Huskies. Mazeroski connected on another long ball in the third, while Cassidy was a factor in the quarter as well, cashing in on two buckets from the field. Looking for the six seed-three seed upset, the Huskies had the Generals scrambling to make plays down the stretch.

It probably doesn’t happen often when a team is fighting to

advance on their home floor, but an impressive six different Generals found the bottom of the net in the final eight minutes. Quite simply, that is a recipe for winning close games.

Times like that are generally when a coach wants their biggest stars to have their bigger moments, and Mitchell was there to fill that role for bench boss Justin Clifford. The future Akron Zip had another ten point quarter in the midst of the well-rounded offensive spurt from the Generals, but unfortunately it wasn’t enough to keep pace as the clock ticked away on the 2020-21 season.

The Huskies weren’t the only ones to experience a shortened post-season showing. In fact, every team but one in the Buckeye Eight has been eliminated from tournament play, with zero current

league teams reaching the District round for the first time in many years. The newcomer Cambridge Bobcats, who officially didn’t compete in the league this year, are the only remaining school affiliated with the microconference with a shot to advance.

They see the number one seed powerhouse Meadowbrook Colts in Division II play this weekend.

Ridgewood, who hails from a conference with a strong basketball pedigree in the IVC, moved on to face the #1 seed Fort Frye Cadets this past Tuesday.

They were eliminated after falling 54-50. Fort Frye and Tusky Valley (from the IVC) will square off in a one-versus-two matchup for a ticket to the Sweet 16 in Division III. Mitchell finished his illustrious career by climbing all the way up to 15th on Ohio’s all-time scoring

list. He wrapped up his run with 2,421 points, good enough for fourth overall in the OVAC. Aiding Mitchell’s 26, Mazeroski finished with eight, and Cassidy sat right behind him with seven.

Madzia banked four, while Vermillion rounded out the scoring with a bucket. It was certainly tough sledding underneath for the Huskies, as Vermillion was the only big man to contribute on the scoreboard for the evening. Ridgewood’s size and quickness in the paint created some problems for the sturdy frontline trio of Vermillion, Sam Santille, and Cabot Arbaugh.

Clifford and the Huskies program will lose Mitchell, Santille and Mazeroski to graduation this Spring. Cassidy, Madzia, Vermillion and Arbaugh will be at the core of next year’s lineup.

Conotton Valley BoE discusses adding back Rocket Center aspects BY: JACQUIE HUMPHREY SHERRODSVILLE - At the February meeting of the Conotton Valley Board of Education, plans for re-adding aspects of the Rocket Center were discussed. The project was down-sized last spring, because of the uncertainty of Rover funding and on-set of Covid-19.

Recently the Board began discussing the possibility of readding the original entrance, the second story of the anticipated medical facility, and a scaled down version of the swimming pool area.

On Thursday the Board voted unanimously to re-bid these additions. Superintendent Todd Herman guestimates that the plans will cost around

$200,000.00 for the proposed $3 million of possible construction.

Although all five Board members agreed to the rebidding of the pool, they were not all in agreement on voting on the certainty of moving forward. A review of the final plans, and cost, as well as further discussion with members of the community, will take place before a final decision is made.

Other Action: - Approved expenditures totaling $738,113.39. Learned the General fund balance of $250,000 in Unified Bank.

The balance of the Star Construction fund was reported at $2,690,837.28 with $14,639,117.93 in the US Bank Account.

Jewett Sportsman’s Club makes pitch to Board of Education

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Discussed at last month’s meeting regarding the possible new sport of trap shooting at Harrison Hills, the process went a step further when Board Member DJ Watson introduced Max Hall, Tom Watson and Tommy Thompson of the Jewett Sportsman’s Club.

The three men pitched their end of involvement and showing their support for what would be a co-ed sport and what DJ Watson described as a “trap team club.” Tom Watson talked of the opportunity the sport has to offer in giving students something to do, help in the responsibility department and “help build some character.”

“Every kid will participate in it and nobody will be left out,” Tom Watson said. Hall talked about the opportunities tied into the sport with one being a college scholarship. Trap shooting is also an Olympic sport as well.

Teams would be upwards of six with five members each but Watson said the sport does not have to be affiliated with the school but hoped it would be, if it’s to the greater benefit of the students. Hall said insurance comes with the program (Scholastic Shooting

Sports Foundation), which covers the school and the competitors.

“Our kids will actually compete as a part of that aforementioned association and the state that they’re talking about, is actually sponsored by that association,” DJ Watson explained. “So, this isn’t necessarily similar to our traditional extracurricular activities that compete in OHSAA. They would actually go and compete with this association.” He said the SSSF would have their own rules and governing body separate from the other school’s sports and rules.

Tom Watson said they could begin practicing later in the year without being any more specific and more than likely would be competing in 2022.

He said a shortage of ammo and save for rushing the process, it would be wiser to hold off till then. Plus, they want to see how many would actually be interested in the sport. It was noted that September is the deadline for competitors to sign up.

He also felt there should be some kind of guardian on the competition site if not a parent.

When asked who picks up the costs for guns and ammunition, he said most have their own gun and fundraisers could be used to offset the cost of some

or all of the ammo.

“This is a very expensive sport, it really is,” Hall told the board explaining the need for other means to raise money for things like ammunition. It was also established that guns would either be brought to the competition site by parents or kept at the club but no weapons would be kept on school grounds.

DJ Watson said they would need to get back with the members of the club to determine the exact criteria needed for the school district to meet. Tom Watson said gauging the interest now would be wise and guessed around 30 would be a good number, though he noted around 60 turned out at Carrollton. He said there is a requirement of two coaches for every ten competitors with special criteria for actual shooting.

Regarding the financial report, Treasurer Roxane Harding stated that everything was as expected and doing good with “all funds balancing (bank to book reconciliation).”

Interest on their general fund stood at just above $250,000, which Watson called “great news” and commended Harding for her work in that area.

BL Student Councils Collect for Urban Mission CONNORVILLEThe Buckeye Local Jr. and Sr. High School Student Councils did their part to serve the community by collecting items to benefit Urban Mission Ministries Inc. of Steubenville.

BLHS Student Council CoAdvisor Michael DiCenzo said 46 members participated and gathered $160 in gift cards, personal care items, hats, gloves, socks and other winter items.

The event occurred throughout January and items were delivered to the Urban Mission on Feb. 19.

"This is the first time we have done it," he said. "The students are always eager to find ways to help people, especially in our local community. When they recognize that there is a need for something, they seek out ways they can help."

Members want to continue serving the community but the pandemic has thwarted traditional means of assisting causes. DiCenzo noted that many hands-on projects and events have been canceled due to the inability to social distance but safety protocols were in

place for the collection.

Students and staff instead were asked to take donations to the school office or one of the student council advisors, which also includes Jenny Lowry and Jennifer Panepucci, to reduce large gatherings and close contact between individuals.

"We hope to continue to help the Urban Mission and other organizations that share the students' goals in the future," he concluded. "The students want to do a litter cleanup project in the spring and we are in the early stages of planning it."

Cold water poses safety hazard even as temperatures rise COLUMBUS, Ohio – With spring temperatures just around the corner, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) is reminding Ohioans that warmer weather does not mean warmer water.

Water temperatures in lakes and streams are still very cold, and even the best swimmers could experience complete exhaustion and symptoms of hypothermia in just minutes.

Nearly 90 percent of boating fatalities are due to drowning and nearly half of those are attributed to the effects of immersion in cold water. Water cooler than the normal body temperature of 98.6 degrees causes heat loss. Cold water will cool a body 25 times faster than cold air of the same

temperature.

“It’s important to remember that outside temperatures rise much quicker than water temperatures,” ODNR Director Mary Mertz said. “Wearing a life jacket adds a layer of safety any time you’re on the water, but especially when the cold can add another level of danger.”

Wearing a life jacket while boating is as important as wearing a seat belt while driving. A properly fitted life jacket will keep a person’s airway out of the water, avoiding the large possibility of triggering an uncontrollable gasping reflex. Heart rate and blood pressure will surge dramatically, increasing the risk for cardiac arrest. The victim may hyperventilate and find it difficult to get air into the lungs.

ODNR also warns Ohioans about the possibility of high water. Rain typical in the spring months will create high and swift moving currents in lakes, rivers, and streams. Higher water can create and conceal hazards like downed trees, eroded banks, and other underwater obstacles.

“The first step toward staying safe in high water situations is scouting a river or stream before launching any watercraft,” said Glen Cobb, chief of the ODNR Division of Parks and Watercraft. “Boaters should also make sure someone knows where they plan to go by sharing a float plan with a responsible friend or family member.”

ECE prepares students to teach the next generation BLOOMINGDALE - The early childhood education program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School gives students opportunities to work with the next generation and gain experience to be teachers themselves.

ECE is one of the original programs that date back to the school’s opening in 1975, and since then it has put a multitude of graduates in classrooms and childcare facilities. Currently taught by Becky Kelley with aide Deanna Hines, it includes 18 juniors and seniors who assist with childhood development in a preschool setting. A dozen toddlers ages 35 attend a state-licensed preschool onsite and participate in an array of learning activities to get them ready for kindergarten. “[ECE students] work in the preschool four days a week. I think it’s a big advantage of our program that they work with children and get hands-on experience every single day,” said Kelley. They can earn a child development associate (CDA) credential, which they need to go into the workforce, an American Heart Heartsaver certification for CPR and first aid, communicable disease recognition training and child abuse recognition training. The CDA is optional but will earn them points for ratings in Step Up To Quality in private service and childcare.”

She added that students create developmentally appropriate lesson plans to carry out with children and also meet the Ohio Department of Education’s Early Learning Development standards so children have what they need before they start kindergarten. Students also plan activities and extensions for their lessons, craft newsletters to inform parents of preschool activities and grow to

understand what is it like to have their own classroom. They further obtain experience conducting evaluations and assessments on the youngsters and formulate plans to meet their needs.

“They leave with a skill they can make a career out of, learn their self-worth and that they can achieve anything if they put their mind to it.”

Students also take part in the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) organization and have gone on to state and even national competitions. COVID-19 led to a virtual regional contest this year and pupils recorded submissions which will be judged this month with opportunities to advance to the state event. Entries were based on actual lesson plans developed for the preschoolers, which Kelley said gives her students further insight into what it is like to be an educator.

“It’s a good learning experience to see what’s expected of them in the workforce,” she added.

“Even if they are not in early childhood education, we hope that we’ve taught them job skills that demonstrate attendance, being prompt and dressing and acting accordingly.”

As for Hines, she has been on both sides of the desk beginning as an ECE student herself in 1977 and later as an aide. She said many of the program’s teachings were utilized when she was a pupil, but with a few exceptions. For one, the lab had teachers Marilyn Roush and Debra Brodowski to oversee junior and senior classes and the FCCLA primarily focused on local events.

She received her CDA and education degree went on to work at a daycare and later served as a Head Start administrator and teacher.

Hines left the latter role after 24

years and then received the call from the JVS. Hines returned to work with Roush after Brodowski departed, acting as a substitute for nearly two years.

She has remained on the job for the past 18 years and collaborates with Kelley.

“We did in-depth observations of preschool students, such as their gross motor skills, and worked with kids on the floor,” she said. “It was fun and I loved it. I came back out here and it was different from being a student, but I love what I do.”

Future educators Hailey Hanson and Alexis Kerns, both seniors at Edison High School, said they have learned a lot at the JVS which will help them with their endeavors.

“I want to start with preschool and go onto kindergarten and first grade,” said Hanson. “I feel like when I’m here, I get a good hands-on experience and get a feel of the classroom.”

She said teaching has been in her blood since childhood when she played school with her younger siblings. Now she hopes to make it a reality.

Like Hanson, Kerns recollected playing school with her sister and is looking ahead to teaching preschool to fifth grade.

“I did online school and wanted to get out of my shell and try something new,” she said of her decision to attend the JVS. “I’ve learned how to be more responsible and how to care for young children. This has really prepared me for college with hands-on opportunities.”

Meanwhile, Kelley noted that quite a few alumni have gone on to serve in schools and childcare and she was pleased to see what they have accomplished.

“It makes it all worthwhile.

Even if it’s one student out of 20, it makes you feel proud.”
