County Health Board lays out facts of COVID-19 By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
CADIZ – The Harrison County Commissioner’s meeting on Wednesday took on more of a lecture series tone when County Health Administrator Garen Rhome spoke for more than 40 minutes on what to expect statewide, as well as within the county concerning the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Governor Mike DeWine declared Ohio a state of Wednesday after discovering three people in Ohio have been diagnosed with the virus on Monday. After talking with state officials Rhome brought to the board some numbers but emphasized caution. He said they are changing daily and whatever numbers he may supply could rise by the next day. And as Rhome was reporting over 600 cases of the virus in the United States and 25 deaths, by 5 p.m. that number
had risen to 928 cases and 29 deaths in 38 states plus the District of Columbia, two more than he reported earlier. He added that results are pending on 15 additional cases of people who have been tested in Ohio who meet the criteria for that test. “One of the main things we do in public health is we plan and practice and we have mechanisms in place behind the scenes, for exactly this type of situation,” Rhome explained. “This is the situation that we practice for is local response.” He added that the goal was to educate the public and pass along the state official’s message that could possibly help people. Rhome told the board that since the Ohio Department of Health set up a seven-day-a-week coronavirus hotline (833-427-5634) they have had “thousands of calls” across Ohio in just five days. Rhome noted that this virus is not just hitting the elderly but people over 50

CADIZ – Harrison County Sherriff Joe Myers and Prosecutor Owen Beetham held a joint press conference Thursday morning to address the situation of the two female bodies discovered in Harrison County over the past few weeks. Myers stated that one person, as the result of a Tuesday night chase after attempting to serve a warrant, resulted in one person of interest who is currently being held in Monroe County jail regarding Shrieve’s death. The first body, Lorie Storie, 37 of Zanesville, found near the dam at Tappan Lake, was “brutally beaten” Myers stated in leading off with Storie’s case. It’s suspected that the killing took place “somewhere else” then dumped in the lake. “Neither one of these cases is tied together,” Myers said in wanting to squash speculation and rumors of a serial killing, which authorities never alluded to in the first place. “It’s not, it’s two different isolated incidences. We want to make sure that the public knows that they’re not anyway connected,” Myers explained. He also said the women did not know each other after scouring Facebook pages as well as talking with people, and were not from this area. The second body, Sherry Lynn

CADIZ – The Cadiz Police Department conducted a raid on a Cadiz house located at 144 E. Market Street off a search warrant obtained the raid commenced at 9:45 a.m. Tuesday, and what they found, along with Tyler W. Calhoun, was 46.5 grams of methamphetamines. Lt. Ron Carter and Chief Ryan McCann said this was the largest drug bust in the history of Cadiz. The largest amount also occurred this year when approximately 15 grams of meth were found. This one though, was more than three times that earlier bust amounting to nearly the size of a baseball. Calhoun, 30, who Carter said was from Tuscarawas County was arraigned Wednesday morning where bond was set at $250,000. He also shows a previous charge of marijuana possession and disorderly conduct. Carter said the methamphetamine problem that seems to be growing in the area was something that McCann had been emphasizing regarding

CADIZ – The Harrison County Board of Elections (BOE) held their regular meeting Monday and one of the subjects covered in the one hour and twenty-minute meeting was to prepare for alternate workers if some of the regular people did not want to go out amid the coronavirus scare. One idea, which was agreed upon was to use high school students to take the place of regular workers. The board agreed to recruit eligible candidates for the task with Harrison County Republican Central Committee Chairman John Jones also thought it to be a good idea. Alex Pavloff, eastern Ohio regional liaison was present and also agreed. “I think that the more precautions we take the more backup we got, the better,” he explained. Pavloff noted an upcoming Secretary of State Frank LaRose statement where he eventually announced the moving of some voting poll locations that were located in senior citizen and nursing homes. But

Shrieve, 40, of Bellaire found last Friday alongside Harrison 36 was the victim of a gunshot. He said the handgun was of a small caliber. “The severity was really bad as far as that goes at the crime scene,” he stated but would not speculate further as they are waiting on further autopsy reports. Beetham said that, “numerous agencies have been working around the clock for the past two weeks.” Along with his and Myers’ offices, the FBI, BCI and the U.S. Marshals. “We brought in all the resources that we could possibly think of in order to continue the active investigations in here,” Beetham explained. He repeated Myers’ words that the two cases were not linked and the victims were not from Harrison County. He did say, both suspects were also not from Harrison County but would not go further on the first body found, that of Storie. “What we have we think is that Harrison County, by geographical happenstance, ended up being the place either where the bodies were dumped or crimes where committed,” Beetham explained. He added that in both cases both bodies were close to county lines and called all the agency’s effort “great successes.” Beetham was not prepared to release the name of the one “person of

He did say that for election day that no polling places in Harrison County meet the criteria for alterations such as, polls held at nursing homes or schools. “Symptoms? You hear flu-like. It’s respiratory, it’s cough, it’s fever, it’s chills, it’s body aches…” but added that he was not sure how quickly it reacts in the body compared to the normal flu. “There are going to be disruptions to our normal life…” Rhome said of activities such as sporting events for example. “It’s something, even if you’re not sick…it’s going to touch our lives, everybody’s life in one way or another.” Rhome did commend U.S. officials for holding off the virus from entering the United States as long as it did. He called it a “fantastic system” in limiting travel from other countries and keeping the U.S. from turning “red” as other

on the case for only three days when they acted off the search warrant early Tuesday. “To see this is huge,” Carter exclaimed. “We hope this sends a message to future dealers, you will be caught.”

Pavloff stated emphatically in the meeting that the election would not be canceled. LaRose announced via a press release that voting polls situated inside schools would be left up to the individual jurisdictions on whether those locations would change. Harrison County BOE Director Ruby Foutz said no Harrison County voting polls would be relocated for the upcoming election. Harrison County Health Department Administrator Garen Rhome released a statement late last week when talking about COVID-19 and what to expect in the county. “I'd say there's no real data or ideas to support where in Ohio it might emerge first. Standard thinking might lean towards a population center like Columbus or Cleveland,” Garen said, which is exactly what happened as the news broke earlier in the week. “But in public health we're trained to consider other factors in the community. What are other reasons that people in our area travel. Religious missionary work, university students, vacations. These are all factors that make it difficult to know where

COVID-19 might appear in Ohio first. But the experts agree that it will happen. So it's a matter where and how and knowing that we're prepared.” Also, the board agreed to take on a certain amount of students to help with the election process. All agreed that they have been very helpful as one student was already present and working in the office. The hours they put in is for the National Honor Society participation where 45 service hours are needed. There is no cost to the BOE in exchange for the students earning their community service hours, according to Foutz. The Election Board also wished to remind the public of their Early Voting office hours, which are as follows: Saturday 8-4 p.m., Sunday 1-5 p.m., Monday 8-2 p.m. The deadline for requesting a ballot to be mailed out is noon on Saturday, March 14. Ballots mailed back to the Election Board must be postmarked no later than 12:01 a.m. Monday, March 16; however, voters have until 7:30 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, March 17, to return ballots in person.

VOTE YES MARCH 17, 2020 SILVER SPADE JOINT AMBULANCE DISTRICT HARRISON HILLS CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT TAX REDUCTION OF 5.98 MILLS AT END OF 2020 February 22, 2020 Harrison News-Herald Article
USE YOUR TAX SAVINGS TO SAVE LIVES!
Harrison County Budget Commission gives update on School Bond Issue The Harrison County Budget Commission – comprised of Auditor Allison Anderson, Prosecutor Owen Beetham, and Treasurer Vicki Sefsick – would like to update Harrison County Taxpayers on the Harrison Hills City School District Bond Issue that was passed in 2015 at 4.98 mills, to build the new school complex. Currently the Bond Issue now sits at 2 Mills. To further explain how this affects each taxpayer, the Harrison County Auditor, Allison Anderson, provided some calculations. The Average Home in Harrison County is valued at $63,021. At the Original Millage Rate of 4.98 Mills, each average home paid about $109.85/Year for the Bond Issue. At the Reduced Millage Rate of
2.00 Mills, each average home now pays about $44.11/Year for the Bond Issue. To add onto this cost savings, the Harrison Hills City School Board chose to forgo renewal of the Permanent Improvement levy, a separate levy that has been on since 1985, which will fall off at the end of 2020. This levy was 3.00 mills, which will save the average homeowner $66.17 per year. School Board President, D.J. Watson, added, “It has always been a goal of the Board to prioritize those taxpayers who prioritized our kids in 2015. Thanks to responsible fiscal management and forecasting, we are able to do so now in 2019 with the decision on the permanent improvement levy.” With the increased valuation
How to Calculate Tax SAVINGS of 5.98 Mill:
attributable largely to utility and other industry related projects in Harrison County over the past few years, explains Prosecutor Beetham, the Budget Commission was able to reduce the effective Bond tax millage by nearly 60 percent and provide added savings to Harrison County taxpayers. And, after the expiration of the Permanent Improvement levy beginning next year, taxpayers will see an overall effective reduction in millage by a whopping 75 percent – from 7.98 mills down to 2 mills. To put it another way, the Harrison County taxpayer and their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will enjoy a state-of the-art school facility at a tax cost less than they paid prior to the passage of the Bond Levy in 2015.

FACTS: • This Ambulance District includes Cadiz Twp, Green Twp, Village of Cadiz and the Village of Hopedale. • This Ambulance District has a large population with many businesses. Because of this, the Ambulance District has the most emergency calls in Harrison County. • Thanks to a Federal Grant, Hopedale Fire Department has been staffed 24 hrs/day since October 2018. • Cadiz no longer has a volunteer ambulance. Since April 2019, Hopedale Fire Department is the primary ambulance covering emergency calls in Cadiz Twp. and the Village of Cadiz. • Last year, Hopedale responded to 1459 emergency calls. 91% of the emergency calls were in Cadiz Twp, Green Twp, Village of Cadiz or the Village of Hopedale. • Hopedale Fire Department, the Hospital Ambulance Service, and the Volunteer Ambulances are ALL needed to cover the increasing number of emergency calls in Harrison County.
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE YES • Hopedale is the primary ambulance to cover emergency calls in Cadiz Twp, Green Twp, Village of Cadiz and the Village of Hopedale. • Hopedale Fire Department’s federal grant for staffing will expire in 2021. Without a tax levy for continued funding, Hopedale will return to an unstaffed, ALL volunteer department. • If the tax levy fails and Hopedale Fire Department returns to an unstaffed ALL volunteer department, the time it takes for an ambulance to respond to your emergency call will increase considerably. • Every time you support an Ambulance Service, Fire Department, or Police, you are HELPING SAVE LIVES!

someone from being sick, but will help prevent someone who is sick from spreading it. “It’s not scary, it’s not alarming, it’s just what we might have to do and what we might be prepared to do at a local level,” he explained in disruption in our way of life. He encouraged what they’re calling as “social distancing” where public events are being restricted and where a cough will travel six feet and to
be aware of such things. When asked what is different about this virus in the face of growing cynicism over the attention it is getting, Rhome stated for one, there is no vaccine for this virus, which he said is new and for which they know little about. He said officials are not sure yet if COVID-19 has a higher mortality rate than the normal flu that circulates every year.
Director for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, though, stated before congress also on Wednesday that the COVID-19 diseases actually has the mortality rate “ten times” that of the seasonal flu. Rhome explained that with people who are walking around maybe immunized against the normal flu but with coronavirus,
they are not. “None of us in the public are walking around immunized or, immune from novel coronavirus, covid nineteen,” he stated. Rhome also touched on what he called journalists versus media. He cautioned against what he calls “infodemic” type “media” who are not necessarily journalists, whose job it is to spread facts and not rumors by bloggers, for example. “I don’t know what the media is,
Netflix is the media,” he said. “The media is Joe Youtube with a blog, he’s not an expert. We rely on journalists to take our facts and spread them.” Rhome stated that anyone in need of information on the subject can go to: www.cdc.gov and go to the coronavirus page. The United States cases are updated each day at 4 p.m. For Ohio: www.coronavirus.ohio.gov and is updated each day at 2 p.m.
Myers explained the high speed chase that occurred on Tuesday that began in Bellaire and ended in Monroe County. He said a warrant was being served while working with the Belmont County Drug Task Force. He confirmed that they were able to
speak to that person on Wednesday and that he is a person of interest in Shrieve’s case. Beetham said no charges have been filed yet as they are “coordinating” efforts with the jurisdiction where
the crime was committed, which involved the chase. “So there will be a litany of crimes that will be formally charged,” he said of that person who he said was a “felon under disability.” Myers explained that they
believe the suspect had information in the case but would not speculate any further until the investigation has been completed. Myers did add that phone activity was being
investigated in Shrieve’s case with help from BCI. He said the murder was committed near the Belmont County line. As far as Storie’s case is concerned they do not know where that crime may have been committed as of yet.
Several positions up for grabs Tuesday By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
HARRISON COUNTY – With the primary election in less than a week, voters will decide if the county commissioner’s seat or the county prosecutor’s position will change its look. But surprisingly, what has taken on a more heated tone is the issue of the proposed Silver Spade Ambulance District (SSAD). Hopedale Fire Chief Mark Marchetta has spent considerable time lecturing at various locations over the past several weeks educating the public on why it is necessary for them to vote yes to instill a 2.25 mill tax levy. This would ensure that Hopedale’s FD would continue to get paid well after their grant runs out next year. Marchetta said it’s possible to obtain the grant again but there are no guarantees. Some misconceptions have been circulating regarding Harrison Community Hospital’s backup service and what would happen if the levy passes. They are under contract to serve as that backup with the county and would continue to do so. Also, An HCH official stated last fall that they would not withdraw from that contract and would continue to serve the county. An issue raised at the Board of Elections meeting Monday questioned how the advertisements for the SSAD were being paid for and if it were legal. Marchetta stated this
week they raise money during their annual fundraiser called a “gun bash” and do not use grant money. The grant money is only to be used for payroll, he explained. A flyer circulating attributed to the Concerned Citizens Council of Cadiz (CCCC) is against the SSAD and Marchetta has taken issue with several of their points. For one he has never said there would be no ambulance service if the levy fails, as the flyer states. He called some of their points “scare tactics” and said the passing of the levy is “so important” but added there would be “big trouble” if the levy did not pass. The CCCC flyer notes that taxes are already being paid for HCH backup service but Marchetta stated that since the Harrison Hills School District voted to not renew their Permanent Improvement levy (as of Dec. 31, 2019), which amounted to 3 mills, the county citizens would not be paying more taxes. If the levy does not pass HCH would continue to backup the county but Hopedale’s FD would then revert back to an allvolunteer FD after next year if they don’t obtain that grant again. In other races, Commissioner Paul Coffland’s (R) four years are nearly up and as he was once the challenger now has opposition to face himself in current Mayor of New Athens, Joe Petro (R). Coffland, in leading off his campaign has been pushing the importance of
the 2020 census and the funding it can bring in if thoroughly filled out. He’s also noted the funding already pulled in during his tenure and the work the commissioners have accomplished in working with several local community projects. Petro has pushed for better transparency and working with the villages and townships. He’s also pushed for better use of county resources. Another race that might turn interesting is for the prosecutor’s office. Both current Prosecutor Owen Beetham (R) and his former employee, Lauren Knight (R) have been tirelessly working the local communities for votes. The argument has turned into his experience versus her “non-experience” and where Knight is stating she would save the county money using the figure of $20,000. Beetham has stated he is already saving the county money by taking a reduction in pay to supplement his assistants who help cover the three courts. Knight wants to be a full time prosecutor where Beetham, as is his right, chose the part time route with the help of those assistants. He also said he is in the office much more than Knight has claimed with more hours put in at various times of the day and night. Another position up for grabs is District-30 where current State Senator Frank Hoagland (R) is being challenged by Democrat Michael Fletcher.
Cadiz settles on energy program By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Last Thursday the village of Cadiz had one more visit from Larry Taylor of Volunteer Energy and informed council that after meeting with Village Administrator Ted Andrzejewski, it was decided to go with a 24month fixed rate for their aggregate gas and electric programs. “The gas market is in an all-time low and substantial savings could be saved, especially in the wintertime during those four, five months…” Taylor explained. He said with these rates locked in “thousands and thousands” of dollars could be saved. The rate for gas, fixed in at 24 months is .359 per CCF (cubic feet) and .04866 per kilowatt hours for electric. Information supplied by Andrzejewski in his report listed five energy suppliers they considered and all substantially higher ranging from .3950 for Center Point to .3990 fro Direct Energy and Ohio natural Gas to .37 and .36 for Dominion and AEP respectively. Some are for 12 and others are for 24 months but all are higher than Volunteer’s rates, according to the information provided by Andrzejewski. “The reason that the electric is down is because the gas market is down and a lot of the power plants will use gas as the major burn to provide energy,” Taylor told

Cadiz reservoir accident results in one death By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
CADIZ – Three men from the Cleveland area, Marion Johnson and companions Victor Mallory and Robby Durr came down to fish last Sunday at the Cadiz Sparrow Reservoir. The trip however turned to tragedy when the boat overturned and all three men went into the water. Johnson, though revived at one time after being transported to Harrison Community Hospital, was pronounced dead at approximately 3:51 p.m. that same day. Durr was transported to Trinity and survived the ordeal. Mallory was treated on site but apparently did not need hospitalized. No one was Life Flighted, contrary to an earlier report and according to authorities, the small 12-foot boat was built to hold 500 pounds but all three men were reported to be over 200 pounds. Cadiz Police also said there was gear brought on board that contributed to the extra weight. Hopedale Fire Chief Mark Marchetta said that hypothermia was a major factor in the condition of the men where he said a temperature measure of the water resulted in 40 degrees but Cadiz Police speculated that the water was much colder than that.

council. “So we decided to renew this [and] we want to do it now because we feel that the electric is going to tick back up substantially over the next six months or so.” Also covered was the application sent to ODOT for the Safe Route to Schools that had been sent in earlier in the day. The project is for building a sidewalk from the top of Ohio 9 where the sidewalk runs from the old post office and ends at the top of the hill. The village hopes to continue it down across from Liggett Lane, which leads to the high school. Mayor John Migliore said changes have been made to the application with the total cost estimated to rise to $521,865. That is an increase of more than $200,000 with the initial estimate at just over $352,000. Migliore also reminded council that an additional grant, TAP (Transportation Alternative Program) is also possible but if they were to obtain both grants then the village would be responsible for a 5 percent match, which he said comes to $121,000. “And I think there’s a great possibility that I can have some people partner with us on that,” Migliore explained. “The bottom line is they put the grant in and we won’t know anything for the Safe Route to School till…around the Fourth of July.” He said the TAP grant would not be submitted until October. Migliore also told council that if the village was not able to produce the matching fund of $121,000
and that they could “back out of it at any time.” He then passed out maps to council members explaining the reason for the rise in cost to over $500,000. He said a “retention pond” is in that area and a retaining wall would have to be built, which jacked up the estimated cost. “That’s why the cost went up so high on everything,” he told council. Migliore said The main sewer treatment plant building was again discussed with Migliore stating that the material could be disposed of as non-toxic waste or, solid waste. The building had been damaged by a chlorine leak and a discussion ensued over whether the material was toxic or not. Migliore told council that after conferring with an EPA official, Dan Bergert (division of material and waste management) who informed him that it could be hauled away normally. “He told me that we should treat the material in the building, as solid waste,” Migliore explained. He added that most of the material that is in the building was furniture and ceiling tile, as far as what needs hauled away. Migliore said a new furnace and roof along with electrical repairs, renovation costs would be $21,546, which included new doors as well. Migliore also reminded council that $29,000 had already been set aside for a trailer, meaning that allotted money can now be used for renovations with the trailer not being needed.

CADIZ – Harrison County Engineer Doug Bachman received the commissioner’s approval at Wednesday’s meeting for an agreement between the county and ODOT. The purpose was for paving money via an ODOT grant worth $226,908. Bachman said the total project would come to $791,101 with OPWC funding another $329,900. The county would pitch in the difference, which comes to $234,293. The funding will go specifically for paving Harrison 29. Bachman said the ODOT grant was through the “Local Roads Oil and Shale program. “The pavement rehab and resurfacing project is a transportation activity eligible to receive state funding,” the agreement states. Bachman said the deadline to bid out is July 1. Commissioner Paul Coffland read from the agreement stating it
will involve center line striping, which Bachman said was for Industrial Park Road. He said it would also include 148.9 miles of other roads in the county. He said sealed bids would be received until 10 a.m. on Apr. 20. Bachman also said he was in talks for special pavement markings that are easier to see in wet conditions and at night. Deb Knight of the Harrison County Department of Jobs & Family Services presented two contracts for approval. The first one was for the Ohio Start Program, which involves “quick access to treatment for our substance abuse clients.” She said the plan seeking approval was to cover quick access to treatment and was also necessary because they received the Ohio Start grant. Knight said they would be sharing that with their behavioral health partner, which is Southeast Healthcare Services. “We intend to buy blocks of appointment time that they will be
able to keep open so when we identify clients for this program, they will have time immediately to see them,” Knight explained. She said prior problems were getting clients in after up to six weeks of waiting and said this would help speed that process up. Knight said her office’s supervisor and Southeast would share joint supervision services. “If a client is referred to Southeast that doesn’t have Medicaid, which will probably be rare, we will use the grant to pay for their services so they can get treatment,” Knight explained. The second contract approved was with Harrison County Transit, which covers “all the transportation services that we purchase from Transit,” Knight told the board. She said this includes non-emergency transportation as well. She said the total for this contract, which includes other programs, would not exceed $540,000 “spread across all of those programs.”

The boat used by three men from Cleveland where one lost his life Sunday sits at Blackies Garage & Towing Company in Cadiz. The boat was weighed down with extra gear and none of the men were wearing life jackets, according to Cadiz Police.
Simmerman, were two of the officers that jumped into the cold water. He said Johnson’s foot was apparently caught on part of the boat and wasn’t noticed until they turned the boat over. Walker speculated that Johnson might have been in the water for 35 minutes. Cadiz Police released a statement Tuesday afternoon. “Based off of victim and witness statements it was determined that the deceased victim lost his balance in the vessel, falling over board. It was stated that the male then grabbed the side of the boat causing the other two males to fall in to the water. For a short time all three males where [sic]
on the surface of the water and the deceased victim (Johnson) went under and didn’t come back up,” according to the press release. Walker also said the boat was registered as a 12-footer but was actually 10.5 feet. He also said none of the men wore life preservers but did bring a lot of gear with them. “They did every thing they could to save that guy,” Walker said of rescue crews attempts to revive Johnson, which they did briefly but he eventually lost his life a short while later. Hopedale, Cadiz and Tappan rescue crews and a division of ODNR were on the scene.

Biddy Basketball exits week 8 Harrison’s Gamble victorious in first MMA bout By ED BANKS
NH Sports Writer
JEWETT - With the completion of the eighth week of regular play in the books, Biddy Basketball is beginning to focus on the imminent March 13 playoffs. This week’s action saw a couple close contests and positioning for the tournament was on the minds of every team’s coach. Results from the Feb. 29 games produced the following results:
By ED BANKS
NH Sports Writer KENT, OHIO - The seemingly impossible can easily turn possible when you are Cody Gamble. The Harrison Central 2019 graduate put his mind on a goal to win his initial Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) bout, and he went to work making what seemed impossible become a reality. As we know only 50 percent of those entering the ring for the first time have their dream of a first fight victory. For Gamble, his first bout became a double first, as he won the bout in the first round. His opponent, 27 year old James Dodd of California, was a purple belt in Brazilian jujitsu. Dodd, who entered the contest at a record of 1 and 0, was submitted by Gamble at 2:20 of the first round via a powerful neck crank. Gamble is a yellow belt in judo and is only 19 years old. At Harrison Central Gamble played four years of both football and wrestling. He obviously was a standout in both. “Entering the bout I had a lot of weird nerves,” said Gamble. “I felt confident, but not over confident. I sure will be back in the octagon fighting again very soon. There were a lot of people from Harrison County at the fights. I want to thank all of my fans for making the trip to support me,” he added. The bouts that Gamble participated in took place in Kent, Ohio at the American Legion.

Making the list for the top scorers of the week were: Brady McAfee- Mustangs 14 points, Lance SmithKnights 11 points, Jace Violet-
Spartans 12 points, Chaz Culbertson - Spartans 10 points and Austin Dulkoski - Warriors nine points.

Har. Co. CIC receives update on possible funding By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
CADIZ – The Harrison County Community Improvement Corporation (HCCIC) meeting, held at the Coal Room in the government building in Cadiz on Tuesday afternoon, saw an OMEGA (Ohio Mid-Eastern Governments Association) representative speak at length on investment possibilities and funding for future development. Lolly Ravak, loan administrator for OMEGA, talked to the board and its members stating “the OMEGA application would suffice with the Harrison County program.” She said the process has been streamlined for helping causes and added that the funds are available for prospective businesses wanting to come into the area. “And everything that we do still has to be approved by the commissioners or the county CIC,” Ravak explained. “I am not out there giving your money away. I’m just helping to administer it, keeping within regulations.” She said the HCCIC has three choices, to apply for the Harrison County loan program, which goes up to $25,000 or the OMEGA loan program that reaches $300,000. She said the third choice is to apply for both. “So, by doing that we are able to accommodate bigger projects in Harrison County by joining your program with the OMEGA program,” Ravak explained. She said the programs would remain separated with loans through
Harrison County being paid back to the county and the same process would be for a loan through OMEGA. “Per our agreement we are paid a flat fee per hour for administrative responsibilities… ” she said. “Our goal is to make you build this program make it successful so that you can help a lot of businesses in [the] Harrison County area.” Harrison County Economic Development Director Nick Homrighausen noted how the OMEGA loan is on a “firstcome-first-serve” basis, which Ravak confirmed. She further explained that the OMEGA program is federally funded via three sources: Federal, state and local. She added that OMEGA does not give priority treatment over a particular company or entity, as she said some loan programs do. “We would do any private for profit business as long as it’s legal,” Ravak stated. “It’s a revolving loan fund because the payments come back to OMEGA.” She did say that there hasn’t been a project she’s dealt with in Harrison County for “many years.” But she did add that she recently met with a potential client and hoped that the business would come to fruition. Ravak explained that a fixed interest rate (4 percent) was possible with no penalty prepayment penalties. She said the luxury on their part is in helping businesses with possible loan modifications or in one instance, helped a store owner find a buyer for their business. “It’s not for the lack of trying that we haven’t done one in Harrison County recently,”
Lolly Ravak, OMEGA loan administrator address the HCCIC meeting Tuesday to update them on the possibilities in their revolving loan fund options. Those loans could be up to $300,000 and a possible fixed rate at 4 percent for future businesses interested in setting up in the area.
Homrighausen told her and said that the reasons differed. “So, we’re constantly in competition,” she told the board reminding everyone that the Federal Reserve had just recently lowered the interest rate. “So we’re competing for these projects.” She said start-up businesses are the ones she can assist with as she noted that “most banks do not like startups.” She said the OMEGA loan program is available to any business within the 10 counties they represent, which she said are all within the Appalachian region, except Belmont County.
Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library launched in Harrison County CADIZ, Ohio – Any child in Harrison County from birth up to age five can enroll to receive books from the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library. Working in conjunction with Harrison Hills City School District, the new program was launched at Harrison Elementary School’s Literacy Night held on March 5 with staff from the Puskarich Library, Harrison County Retired Teachers, Friends of the Library, and even Harrison County Commissioners helping with sign-ups. After enrollment, children will begin receiving a new book each month sent to their home at no cost to their family, until they reach the age of five. Online registration is easy, just visit ohioimaginationlibrary.com/e nroll. Sandi Thompson, Director of the Puskarich Public Library, shares that, “Research has shown that book ownership can be a predictor of future academic success. This is why we are so glad to be a part of bringing the program to Harrison County. We are excited that we have over 180 children from Harrison County now enrolled, but we would like to see even more!” The Puskarich Public Library System is serving as the program’s local coordinator. The efforts are being shared on
social media and through cooperation with Headstart, Harrison County Jobs and Family Services, Harrison Community Hospital, Help Me Grow, Harrison County Board of Developmental Disabilities, Harrison Hills Retired Teachers and Bowerston Public Library. Inspired by Ohio First Lady Fran DeWine’s passion for early childhood literacy, the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library is a partnership with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library to ensure children enter the classroom ready to succeed. The dollar-for-dollar match being provided by the Ohio General Assembly and local donations are making this project possible. A fund has been established to help offset
future expenses for this program. Donations to the “Harrison County Imagination Library Fund” can be made through the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio. Early literacy matters. In fact, studies show that children with just 25 books in their home were more likely to complete an additional two years of education. The Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library is an exciting opportunity for young children in Harrison County. If you have any questions about the program or giving support, please feel free to contact Sandi Thompson sthompson@seolibraries.org or Pam Singhaus at the Puskarich Public Library 740-942-2623.
Shower, where each member brings in items to donate to the Harrison County Home. Jennifer Dunlap provided the club information about the Ohio Imagination Library. The program is Fran Dewine’s project, which provides free books monthly to children ages’ birth to age five for free. The funds to pay for the program that works with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, are provided by state money and locally donated funds. A fund was started through the Foundation of Appalachian to grow money for the program. Jennifer and Sue Adams explained that any donation or pledge donated before May 31,
will be matched by the State of Ohio. It was decided that the club would pledge to donate funds annually for the next five years. Kathy Depew reminded everyone to vote on March 17. The next Cadiz Women’s Civic Club meeting will be held April 2, at 7 p.m. at Harrison Community Hospital. The club will be brainstorming new ways to help the community in addition to the monetary donations already provide to the community and other organizations.

under the project area,” Tabacchi explained. He said in order to “satisfy the title insurance people,” along with satisfying all the agreements with Harrison Power, a quit claim (reported in error last week as “quick” claim) deed was enacted. “And what was transferred was the minerals, the ownership of the minerals themselves,” Tabbacchi stated, “and together with whatever surface rights that go with those minerals, those were transferred to the CIC (county).” Tabacchi further explained that the
commissioners kept the right to lease those minerals if they chose to. The one provision is that no lease could affect the surface of the Harrison Power’s proposed land they would use. “So the end result will be, Harrison Power will own the surface, own the minerals, own the surface rights that go along with the minerals…and what remains with the commissioners is the right to enter into a lease for the oil and gas under the project area,” Tabacchi explained.

CADIZ – Another business has cut ribbon in Cadiz and this time it was realtor Harvey Goodman. Last Friday around two dozen people showed up to wish them well in their place at 120 S. Main Street. Co-owner John Sambuco said the Cadiz office is one of eight they now have in operation with three others in West Virginia (Weirton, Wheeling, Moundsville) and the rest scattered over six Ohio counties
Cadiz Women’s Civic Club held March meeting The Cadiz Women’s Civic Club held their monthly meeting on March 5, at Harrison Community Hospital with 13 members present. Jennifer Dunlap provided inspiration to the club by reading, “Note to Self.” Allison Anderson, Harrison County Auditor, spoke to the club about the changes that have occurred in her office over the last year and provided information about taxes in the county. During the business meeting, the December minutes and the treasurer’s report were accepted as presented. The club made plans to have their annual Harrison County Home April
Also, Attorney for the HCCIC John Tabacchi briefly addressed the commissioners move last week to secure mineral rights under the grounds proposed for the Harrison Power plant. He wished to clarify some of the issues surrounding the move reminding the board the commissioner’s previous transferring of property to the HCCIC “in anticipation to transferring to Harrison Power real estate.” “When they transferred the real estate they kept in the deed the reservation for the ownership for the minerals
with Harrison being the latest. Sambuco said they had been urged for years to open an office in Cadiz but didn’t cave in until they moved in back in November where they actually began business operations in January of 2020. Sambuco talked of the community in Cadiz and what they wish to contribute with their service on South Main Street. “We don’t want to just take, we want to give back,” Sambuco explained during the celebration where food, pastry and soft
drinks were laid out in an impressive spread. And to back that up he said they are contributing $100 from each closing to the local Harrison County Cancer Crusaders to help in their charity work as well. “We want to be a part of the community.” Sambuco said they have around 60 to 70 agents now working at their eight offices. Members of the Harrison County Regional Chamber of Commerce (HCRCC) were present to help cut the ribbon.

Area family gets into the Jefferson County 4H Extension holds window display contest maple syrup business By ESTHER MCCOY
By ESTHER MCCOY
NH Contributor
NH Contributor
IRONDALE – Over the years there has been Mrs. Butterworth and Aunt Jemima and their famous maple syrup but a local brand is working hard to make a product that will entice those who love pancakes. It is Long Run Pure Maple Syrup. This is the product of Carl Glenn and his sons, C.J., August and Gabe. His wife, Aimee, makes the labels and does other printing for the jars. The sap that runs from the trees after they have been tapped is gathered in plastic pouches that are closed at the top with clothes pins. This is to keep out the insects who have a sweet tooth too. The product is fresh from the maple tree that bears its name. But Carl explained that many kinds of trees can be tapped for a syrup. They are of a slightly different flavor than the maple though. He is just lucky to have many maple trees on his farming property. Next, the collected sap goes to the cooker that heats the liquid to a fast boil and keeps it simmering until it is the right consistency to be strained six times through a very thick fabric to make it clear in the jar. Glenn constructed the heating element that cooks the syrup from a Ben Franklin wood burning stove that he improvised and a gigantic vat where it steams, boils and evaporates. The time of year determines the color of the syrup, he noted. That made in January and February has a lighter color than the one produced now but Carl explained that the darker syrup has more flavor. “An experiment was tried with vanilla beans but we found that it was better with its own true flavor,” he said. Carl is lucky knowing how to construct the pipes that release

the syrup as this type of equipment can be very costly. When of the right consistency and a caramel color, it is drained from the vat and taken to the brick house on the farm with the rolling acres of land and trees. This is where it is strained and put into either half-pint, pint or quart jars or plastic jugs that need to be filled when a certain temperature is reached to keep the jug from collapsing when the lid is attached. The business is a great consumer for the Mason jars that are needed for their product. There hasn’t been any problem
with sales at the moment. They are taken to Columbus by friends and sold, also sold to neighbors. There are plans to take it to the Farmers Market if the merchandise holds out that long.“It gets kind of sold here, there and everywhere,” Glenn quipped. Carl is also a 4-H adviser, 4-H leader and Jefferson County Fair board member, along with being a farmer.. The business has an e-mail address of “longrunglenn@gmail.com and a telephone number of 740543-3136.
During Ohio 4-H Week, Jefferson County 4-H Extension conducts a Window Display Contest showing spectators what the over 100-year-old organization is doing to build better students. Judging took place Wednesday for the 20 works of window art. There were no losers but a decision had to be made with regret for the Top 10 windows. The window decorations fell into two different types. Not because it was supposed to happen, just the way of the mind for each of the groups. Many had colorful blocks with a members photo inside, telling what career he or she would be chasing and what projects they were leaning towards in the club. They were pictured sharing time with their elders, cleaning cemeteries, marching in parades, building benches at the fair, attending junior conferences, sending dog food to Hounds Haven, stocking wood for the elderly, donating toys, helping paint a barn at the fair, sending military treats, mentoring students, reading to elementary students, making Easter baskets for shut-ins, sending to Ronald McDonald House and being part of the Key and Rotary clubs or helping with Relay for Life. One club was industrious in helping move wooden benches onto the fairgrounds, three were seen in photos sawing logs and helping with threshing and riding horses in parades. Clubs vowed to make the best better and to excel in what they started out to achieve. As for someone to look up to, many said their parents, a leader or friend. One pictorial entry was a decoration of a picture show, as it was then called; the 10 cent tickets to go to see Shirley Temple, Margaret O’Brien, Tarzan or Tom Mix and an immense box of popcorn with the title, “Popping Up Everywhere.” One club listed those who had died but been an inspiration for members: Larry Mercer, Jim Davis, Gary Cain, Ernie McConnell, Craig and Mary Grafton, Fred and Maggie Howes, Wayne Russell, and others.Those
Rachael Jarman shows off the picture of John Denver for the decoration entry from the Warren Ridge Wranglers in the Jefferson County 4-H Window Decoration Contest. It was the first place winner in the contest where there 20 entries. Many of the musicians were 4-H members themselves. The art work was placed on the bulletin board at Buckeye Local High School.
still living who are inspirations were Amanda Wood, Barb Anderson, Cliff and Emilee Wood, county commissioners, senior fair board members, Cain Realty, Sheriff Fred Abdalla, Shirleen Wood, 4-H extension, local businesses, John and Katie Grafton, parents and grandparents. Going to nursing homes and singing, donating money for Coins for World Vision, planting two flower beds at the fairgrounds and donating $500 to the Steubenville and Jefferson County Libraries for children’s books were other projects displayed. Another pictorial display stated that 4-H leaders were inspired by country music and had pictures of Dolly Parton, Trisha Yearwood, Tim McGraw, Martina McBride, Garth Brooks, Reba McIntire, John Denver and others, Chris Clover was in the center of the display and pictures of members were intertwined. The group also sponsors soup sales on election day as a money maker.

Harrison County 4H chefs bring home the bacon in contest Of The Week By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor
CADIZ – Harrison County 4H members proved they know how to bring home the bacon when 11 teams of prospective chefs got out their mixers, measuring cups, spatulas and baking or cooking pans to whip up an entry with bacon for the Iron Chef Contest. There were main dishes, salads and desserts that were formulated to woo any judge. The tasty project was held at the county fair community
building and is the third endeavor for the Ohio State University and Harrison County Extension group. The lucky judges who got to sample each entry were Dale Norris, commissioner; Lauren Knight, prosecutor candidate; Andrew Burkhead, 4-H alumni; and George Bedway, everybody’s friend. Caity Romshak had her first experience in the contest as the Extension agent who filled the position in January. She now fills the position left empty by
Tim Tanner who was in the county for 11 years. The Country Cookers took first place with a Baconwich in the main dish category. Kimber Rogers, Avery Wallace, Carley Rogers and Bryce Wallace designed the entry. Others in the main dish category were Javen Thomson, Averee Hyde, Ellis Jackson, and Daizy Thompson with Cheesy Potato Skins with Bacon Ranch Sour Cream Dip; and Jacob Rinkes and, Adrianna Blazeski with Spinach Salad.
The dessert winner was Annabelle and Emma Fischer mixing up a “Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart” treat that happened to be a Maple Bacon Upside Down Cake. Hunter and Hayden Bittinger had Maple and Bacon Pancakes that sound delicious. The Albert-Ein-Swine team had a Maple Bacon Delight. Congratulations to all the cooks for their delightful food and the catchy names to go along with the ingredients.

Assessing delinquent taxes may get tougher for Scio By JD LONG
jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
SCIO – Income Tax Administrator Janeen Scott said the state is attempting to change the way Ohio towns can assess taxes for delinquent water bills. Currently, the village can assess those delinquent taxes and report them to the auditor’s office. “Our state senators, they’re trying to…pass (SB) two seventy-three. This was brought on by a Cleveland realtor where we cannot assess taxes at the auditor’s office…” Scott explained. She speculated that shady business practices triggered the senator’s reactions when multiple foreclosures were happening over small amounts of money. She added that there currently is a lawsuit filed by the NAACP stating customers didn’t even use the amount of
water as stated on their bills. “If this passes we’ve got to come up with some way of collecting delinquent bills if they no longer let us assess the taxes,” Scott told council. She said the process is still in the works with legislators so far, holding the first hearing. She said this would force the villages and towns throughout Ohio to come up with some other way to collect those taxes. She surmised that this would probably cost the village more money if they have to go through an attorney as an alternate way of collecting, for example. In other issues addressed, Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh told council that 50 new meters had arrived (Mar. 9) at a total cost of $9,670. He said work orders for installation would begin this month. Under capital improvements
Tubaugh said the village saved over $400 by picking up their T-6 super series pump. The cost came to $11,099 with installation scheduled for April. Also their Chevy 4x4 truck was ordered at a cost of $44,557. The breakdown includes $38,307 for the utility bed and an additional $6,250 for a plow “with associated mounting hardware. Tubaugh also said a special waiver had to be submitted to ODOT for utilizing state funds for preliminary engineering (PE) and right-of-way roadwork (ROW) “under the shale and oil program.” “State funds are not typically used for these aspects of a project,” he wrote in his report. Numbers provided for the oil and shale program for the State Route 646 project are $50,000 for PE, ROW is listed at $30,000. Construction costs are
listed at $360,000, engineering at $42,000 for a total of $482,000. The project is expected to be 100 percent funded through ODOT. He also stated that village roads are now being identified for March and April repairs.

HOSA raises $400 for pediatric cancer cure BLOOMINGDALE-Students in the HOSA Future Health Professionals organization cooked up a sweet idea to benefit children and raised about $400 for a pediatric cancer cure. Hannah Meeker and Izzy Pratko, students in the health technologies program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School, conducted a bake sale on March 8 at the Rural King in St. Clairsville to support the cause. The project was part of the HOSA (formerly Health Occupations Students of America) initiative to help the
National Pediatric Cancer Foundation and the duo sold cookies and brownies outside the business where Meeker’s mother is employed. The students said it not just helping others but a real learning experience. “This is our first time doing a large fundraiser,” said Meeker. “A lot of people came up and told us what we were doing was great.” “It’s great [to help others],” added Pratko. “One lady sat down and talked to us about her husband dying of cancer, and it’s amazing to know how many
people have lost someone to cancer. People can still donate. It’s a long fight but it’s worth fighting.” “Every year, the Future Health Professionals has a philanthropy we try to donate to,” said HOSA advisor Tammy Sismondo. “This year it was pediatric cancer. Hannah and Izzy took the lead in fundraising and raised about $300, while our club donated $100. I’m very proud of them because they took time from their busy schedules to help others.”
FCCLA Members Medal at Regionals Members of the Family Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) chapter at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School gained honors at the FCCLA regional competition at Akron North High School on March 7, where they joined more than 100 students for contests. Among the recipients were, from left, Lucia Burton, who won bronze for Focus on Children; Holly Campos, who won silver for curriculum unit development; Hannah Mitchell, who earned a gold medal for Language and Literacy and silver for early childhood education; Lainee Harris, who won bronze for Focus on Children; Hailey Hanson and Alexis Kerns, who each gained gold for Focus on Children; and Zoe Schupp, who won bronze for early childhood education.

Ohio’s long history of UFOs featured in new series to take place in Canton Palace Theater WADSWORTH, OHIO Bolstered by numerous members of a formerlyclassified, government-funded study into the subject coming forward, UFOs are experiencing something of a resurgence. While television news outlets and network shows attempt to capitalize on the topic, an independent film company based in Ohio has gone after the data behind one of the most bizarre topics in American history. Data that stretches far back into American history. On the Trail of UFOs documents a series of reports that took place across Northeast Ohio during the early 90s, in addition to other historical accounts around the region. Small Town Monsters and the Canton Palace Theatre have partnered for a one-day event called Mysteries & Monsters at the Canton Palace Theatre that will also act as a premiere for the series. The event will feature guest speakers such as author and radio host, Shannon LeGro, as well as television host, Lyle Blackburn who has appeared on various Discovery Network shows. Screenings of films by Small Town Monsters and director, Seth Breedlove, include
a five-year-anniversary special showing of Minerva Monster, and The Flatwoods Monster: A Legacy of Fear, along with Q&As with the crew. A number of Bigfoot and UFO-themed vendors will also be present. The event will be capped off by the world-premiere of the entire On the Trail of UFOs series with members of the crew, as well as its host, Shannon LeGro taking part in a Q&A. On the Trail of UFOs will make its' streaming debut on Amazon and Vimeo OnDemand on March 20th. The series objective was to follow investigator, Shannon LeGro as she scours the United States in search of clues to the origins of the unidentified flying objects. LeGro and crew filmed in 14 different states from coast to coast in an effort to meet and speak with witnesses, investigators, skeptics and even folklorists while documenting the topic. Episodes focus on all aspects of the mystery; from purported alien abductions to the recent "Storm Area 51" event that grabbed mainstream attention last year. Nearly 30 interviews were conducted with people who have claimed to either see a UFO (in some cases
PREVIOUS WEEK’S ANSWERS
on multiple occasions) or who go in search of them. Director, Seth Breedlove, and host, Legro, set out to document what is by far the most tumultuous point in the history of "flying saucers". Filming took place across the United States, including New York City, Phoenix, Sedona, Los Angeles, Orlando, and Las Vegas. No stone was left unturned in putting together what Breedlove believes to be the most comprehensive look at the subject ever filmed. On the Trail of UFOs is available on DVD and Blu-Ray through smalltownmonsters.com and comes to Amazon Prime Video and Vimeo OnDemand on March 20th. The final trailer for the series gives viewers a glimpse into the astonishing numbers of locations and mind-bending interviews documented. On the Trail of UFOs will have its' bigscreen premiere at the Canton Palace Theatre as part of Mysteries & Monsters on Saturday, March 21st.

ODNR and the State Fire Marshall urge caution during spring wildfire season COLUMBUS, Ohio – The State Fire Marshal joins the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) in reminding Ohioans that outdoor debris burning is prohibited from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. during March, April, and May, and to learn about the state’s outdoor burning regulations and take precautions if they are planning to burn debris this spring. “Carelessness with burning trash and debris outside can easily lead to escaped wildfires,” said Greg Guess, fire program administrator and assistant chief for the ODNR Division of Forestry. “Awareness of the burning regulations and following safety tips can help prevent unnecessary risk to people and property.” Burning is limited in the spring due to the abundance of dry grass, weeds and leaves on the ground.
Winds can make a seemingly safe fire burn more intensely and escape control. “Oftentimes, Ohioans are surprised to learn our brushfire season is in early spring, but it is. From now until about mid-April, people really need to be especially careful to prevent wildfires – many of which are started by burning yard waste and trash,” said State Fire Marshal Jeff Hussey. “If you have a dry, low-humidity day, you can get a major brush fire really quickly.” If a fire does escape control, immediately contact the local fire department. An escaped wildfire, even one burning in grass or weeds, is dangerous. Violators of Ohio’s burning regulations are subject to citations and fines. Residents should also check Ohio
Environmental Protection Agency’s regulations, which include additional restrictions, and people should consult with local fire officials about burning conditions. The ODNR Division of Forestry offers these safety tips for burning debris outdoors: - Use a 55-gallon drum with a weighted screen lid to provide an enclosed incinerator. - Know current and future weather conditions, have tools and water on hand and never leave a debris burn unattended. - Be informed about state and local burning regulations. - Consult the local fire department for additional information and safety considerations. - Visit forestry.ohiodnr.gov and firewise.org for more information and tips on protecting a home and
11
community. - Remember: Don’t burn during the day in March, April and May! Ohioans should also remember that food waste, dead animals and materials containing rubber, grease, asphalt or petroleum should never be burned. The ODNR Division of Forestry promotes the wise use and sustainable management of Ohio’s public and private woodlands.

Jefferson County JVS students pass STNA exam BLOOMINGDALE-Health technologies students at the Jefferson County Joint Vocational Center can count themselves among the newest state-tested nurse’s assistants (STNA’s) in the community, making them one step closer to employment opportunities. Instructor Tammy Sismondo said 13 students completed a state-
approved exam administered through Diversified Technologies of Columbus on Feb. 19 and marked another year of 100-percent passage. “Everyone in the class passed,” Sismondo said. “They had to complete a written and skills portion and are all state-tested nurse’s assistants. It gives them 12 points towards graduation and
several students are going to work at local skilled living facilities.” She continued that five students already work with Lancia Nursing Home, one is at Carriage Inn of Steubenville and another is at Trinity. Three of the five who are aides at Lancia’s previously completed their exam at Lancia’s Superior Nurse Aide Training Center in Wintersville last summer.
Meanwhile, the remainder will work in phlebotomy with clinicals and further testing in that field. Sismondo was pleased with the outcome and said her pupils have dedicated themselves to preparing for the workforce. “I’m very happy for the students. They worked really hard and it’s a stepping stone in their future careers.”
Edison High School Band events benefit new uniforms RICHMOND- The Edison High School Concert Band will host its annual Winter Concert on Wednesday, March 11 at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. The event will feature music from John Phillip Sousa as well as “The Lion King,” “Harry Potter” and other movie soundtracks. There will also be highlights from the band’s OMEA Solo & Ensemble
performers from the adjudicated event in January. The concert is free and donations will go towards new uniforms. Band Director Marc Sansone said the current uniforms date back to 1993 and have become greatly worn, but new clothing is set to be ordered for this fall to update the band’s look. The cost of the uniforms is estimated at $40,000 and any donations are
greatly appreciated. Checks may be made in care of the Edison Band Boosters and mailed to the school at 9890 State Route 152, Richmond, Ohio, 43944. “It will help us fund this worthwhile and necessary project,” he added. More fundraising will get underway during the third annual Sportsman’s Bash slated for Saturday,
March 14. Activities will be held from 3-6 p.m. at the Knoxville Volunteer Fire Department and doors open at 2 p.m. A shuttle will be available at Smitty’s Old Skool Pizza Shop to transport patrons to the site. Tickets are available at the door for $20 and include a chance for 12 raffle items and a barbecue meal. More drawings and auctions will be held throughout the event.
