Charges dropped against two in Stinespring case

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com ELLIOT COUNTY, Ky. – Charges against Desi and Devon Stinespring were dropped during a preliminary hearing last week in Sandy Hook, Ky., where the adopted daughter of Harrison County schoolteacher, Ty Stinespring has accused four members of her family of physical abuse.

The Stinesprings were a part of a fourperson arrest warrants that took place two weeks ago where long-time Harrison County teacher, Ty, was arrested and charged with criminal abuse in the second degree. She was not a part of last week’s preliminary hearing and is due back in

court on May 9. She remains on “approved leave” from the Harrison Hills School District.

Apparently the court felt that Desi, just 18 years of age, was more of a victim in the matter but was only originally charged because she was not a minor and was present and knew what was going on, according to a source close to the matter.

The charges against Devon were dropped because of a lack of evidence. Both had been charged with criminal abuse of the second degree.

Ronald Stinespring, 48, who has two addresses listed, one as 621 McCready Ave. in Cadiz (under a Kentucky Fish & Wildlife citation) and the other is 100 Lytten Fork Road that is attached to the

Elliot Circuit Court citations, remains in jail and is being held on a $250,000 bond.

His attorney, Michael Campbell of Moorehead, Ky., has not returned a message to respond.

Ronald is also charged with criminal abuse in the second degree but along with that is charged with fleeing or evading police (first degree), resisting arrest and possession of destructive/booby trap device. According to a Kentucky State Police report, when Ronald was told to stop running “The violator ran towards a corner in the residence by the back door where a loaded shotgun was located.” The report also stated that Ronald continued fighting to free himself once he was apprehended.

“When inside the residence there was a rifle that was tied to the top of a wall frame and had tied strings to the rifle and the rifle was pointed towards the front door of the residence. It appeared that the violator could have pushed the bolt forward and pull the string on the rifle pulling the trigger and firing the weapon,” the state police report noted.

Grace Stinespring, mother-in-law of Ty, has defended her and said the alleged victim in this case, a female juvenile who is the adopted daughter of Ty, is making up the accusations of being tied up and whipped. But one accusation she made is that the juvenile’s biological mother, Megan Wood, told her juvenile daughter to hitchhike to Ohio where she lives, has

been refuted by Gary Hill, the stepfather of Wood.

Hill contacted the News-Herald this week and said they told the juvenile they did not want her doing something like hitchhiking and that she should be patient and wait until they could buy her a bus ticket to get to Ohio. But the girl chose to leave anyway where she was caught by the Stinesprings and allegedly punished, leading to the accusations and eventual charges.

“He deserves whatever he gets legally,” Hill said of Ronald Stinespring. Hill said that once Wood lost parental rights to the child that traveled on down the bloodlines to the relatives. He fears that now the juvenile and her two adopted siblings will be placed up for adoption again.

CADIZ – In an issue that has been addressed the past few weeks in Hopedale’s council meeting, as well as discussed at the Harrison County Commissioner’s meeting, it was again Wednesday as the commissioners passed Resolution (12-19) dealing with the extension of Harrison County’s water and sewer district.

Commissioner Dale Norris read the resolution where it stated that the extension of the District “constitutes a public purpose that will benefit the citizens of Harrison County.”

The extension deals with two issues: Dr. Scott Pendleton’s new facility, with construction already underway near the U.S. 22 exit and the Country Store, both along Miller Station Road.

Among the details listed in the resolution within the county by the Harrison County Water and Sewer District (HCWSD) is that it, “shall install, own and operate water and sewer lines that are connected from the Village of Hopedale water service and sewer treatment in order to provide extended water and sewer service…outside of the Village of Hopedale limits…”

The resolution continued by stating Hopedale is to provide “shared assistance funding of the project in an amount of $5,000.” It also stated Hopedale is to obtain the necessary permits for boring under U.S. Route 22. It also

stated the water and sewer rates provided by Hopedale, which are to be agreed upon by the HCWSD have not been established as of yet, according to the commissioner’s office.

“It’s just a way of providing services to them that they don’t have now,” Norris said of the two businesses that will benefit from the extension.

Also, Doug Crabtree of the Harrison County Engineer’s Office appeared requesting all bids read at last week’s meeting for aggregate, hot mix, limestone and many other elements, be accepted as part of the bidder’s list. He said no bids were returned concerning propane.

“There’s a summary sheet of those bids, the engineer has reviewed those bids…”

Crabtree explained. He stated, “some (bids) were more advantageous depending where the projects are…located in the county.” He said some suppliers are spread out in various parts of the county and depending on the projects “it’s more advantageous to purchase from one versus the other.” The commissioners approved of all bids as they have in the past.

In closing the meeting, Commissioner Don Bethel spread a little spotlight on all winners of the past weekend’s Recognition Banquet. He also noted the Harrison Central Cheerleading squad, which finished runner-up in the state.

It was the first time in the school’s history they finished that high in the state championships.

Jewett receives final rundown on waterline project

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

JEWETT – Bob Allen of E.L. Robinson Engineering presented a final rundown of Jewett’s waterline project at Wednesday evening’s council meeting.

Allen confirmed what was announced two weeks ago at the last meeting that Jewett would not be receiving CDBG (Community Block Development Grant) funds in the hoped-for amount of $750,000 but all was not bad news as they will be getting $500,000, which

HARRISON

NEWS-HERALD

is what they initially thought it would be, according to Allen.

He said that earlier in the year the funds were “bumped up” to the $750,000 level but Ohio Development Services Agency (ODSA) ran out of “enough money to fully fund it” so that was the reason for the regression to the original amount of $500,000.

He said OMEGA, who applied for the CDBG funds on behalf of the village are also waiting on the formal grant agreement and once received, “they will do some notices and then

we’re almost there.”

“But we cannot award the project until OMEGA says that they have received what’s called ‘release of funds’ from Ohio Development Services Agency.” He said the village could bid out the project, with a 90-day hold, which is required by the EPA but cannot issue the notice to proceed until then.

Allen covered nearly a dozen topics regarding the project calling property acquisition the highest priority. It was established that there still remain 16

residents the village needs for obtaining easements from.

“If anybody knows names on that list I would encourage you to speak to them [and] see if you can get them in here,” Allen told council. “So, but that is really the top priority.”

Allen said of their Water Supply Revolving Loan Account (WSRLA) that it has been submitted “in draft” but that they don’t yet know what the dollar amount will be. He said the EPA will need to review it and accept the application upon the village’s

adjustments when they find out the bids. He said the new radio-read meters will make things in the future a lot easier.

Under “completed tasks” Allen said everything is pretty much done, which includes a preliminary schedule, environmental report and public outreach meetings and also a preliminary engineering report and design work. He said they are just waiting on the Harrison County

CBA holds awards banquet

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

Gable’s puts on the green Capital Health’s Gable's Care Center held a St. Patrick's Day pancake breakfast on March 18. This was free for all who were hungry for some green pancakes, bacon, sausage, fried potatoes (had to have potatoes, it is an Irish staple) orange juice and coffee. There was even a greeter at the door who made sure everyone signed up to possibly win a door prize. Those enjoying the great event were Barbara Molinaro of Hopedale; Jay Kolenc of Hopedale; Alice Molinaro, Barb's mother and a resident of Gable's; and Donald and Dianna Richards of Hopedale. Standing are Carl Straley, Ed Moreland and Lamont McCoy.

CADIZ — It was an evening of touching moments when Jackie Hutyera, Cadiz Business Association vice president, asked that heads bow as she read, in hushed tones, the 18 names of citizens from Harrison County who passed away during 2018.

This was at the 21st annual Community Recognition Banquet and was held at the Wallace Lodge in Sally Buffalo Park.

Some went to the podium saying they had been thrown under the bus. Dale Davis who was quite stylish in a black tuxedo said he gave a definite “no” to the duty when asked over a month ago. When the emcee last year Ken Mason needed an instant appendectomy, Davis came on deck. “They sure threw me under the bus,” he said. He made the most of his “on stage” position by making jokes and performing a hat show that included the red baseball cap of “The Donald,” a straw hat that that could be Amish, a Mexican sombrero and a green stove pipe hat for St. Patrick’s Day. Ila Walrath, Cadiz Woman’s Civic Club Community Service Award recipient, told an inspiring story of her musical life and playing the piano for many years through schools, plays, weddings and churches. Some of her children present were Bruce R. Walrath of Los Angeles, Calif., Brent K. Walrath of Cadiz and Kristie Sims of Unionport. Tracy Squires of Woodlawn Park Colo., was snowed in and unable to attend Julie McPeak, Harrison County Cancer Crusaders Organization of the Year awardee, said the group came together over three years ago to make sure the money stayed in the county so area cancer victims could be served. This year the Cancer walk, luncheon, food stands, games and painted faces for children and money making events will be held at the Harrison County Fair grounds, as there is a conflict at their former situation at Sally Buffalo. It will be on Aug. 3 from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Harrison County recipients receiving recognition for work beyond everyday duty were awarded for their thoughtfulness, participation and welcoming attitude at the Cadiz Recognition Banquet Saturday. From left, seated, Ila Walrath, community service award; Julie McPeak, organization of the year; Jamie Miller, owner of Ohio Valley Winery, business of the year; and Dale Davis, master of ceremonies and presenter for the Cadiz Citizen of the Year Award. Back, Larry Bossell, Tony Pietrangelo memorial beautification award; Ken Zitko for Gary Bethel Sr., Sally Buffalo Park Board award of excellence; Chuck Miller , Ohio Valley Winery business of the year; Gary Dodds of Gary’s Body Shop, Cadiz Lions Club citizen of the year; and Ryan McCann, Cadiz Chief of Police, Harrison News-Herald Citizen’s Choice award.

Gary Bethel, Sr., Sally Buffalo Park Board Award of Excellence recipient, was unable to attend so Mayor Ken Zitko accepted, telling that he was a volunteer at the park for nine years, was the security, took care of the grounds, showers and mechanical work to name some duties.

Jamie and Chuck Miller, owners and operators of the Ohio Valley Winery, received the Business of the Year Award. In their line of business, they operate in a friendly and helpful atmosphere and have done much for the community.

They now have wine slushes, fresh bread and pizza to name other things. “They moved in and just ran with it,” Davis said.

Cadiz Police Chief Ryan McCann, the choice for the Harrison News-Herald Citizen’s Choice award, was praised for his betterment of the community, making the guidance of the

Christmas successful and the Snowpeople a sight to behold at the Village Square. In commercial, industrial or organizational work, his efforts have been appreciated in the area, it was noted.

Larry Bossell, Harrison Career Center instructor, was present with two of his students who had helped make the Snowpeople for the Christmas season, Ashlee Bolyard and Shawn Boggs. They received the Tony Pietrangelo Memorial Beautification Award for their work in making the area attractive. Bossell said the making of the wooden snow people would continue this year to add more to the family.

Gary Dodds, owner and operator of Gary’s Body Shop, received the Cadiz Citizen of the Year Award, an award to an individual exhibiting outstanding citizenship and contributions to the community. Coming back

from Vietnam, he worked at several business operated by other owners before completely establishing his own company and helps the local businesses by buying needed merchandise from them.

Davis was noted that Blue Long volunteered at the bar. He is from the Cadiz American Legion Post 34 that celebrated a 100 year anniversary during the week of Feb. 10. Also noted when discussing many years, Davis said that there was a member of the Cadiz Lions Club who would be 102 years-old in September. This was John Tabacchi who has ben a 71-year member of the Cadiz Lions and has never missed a meeting. He stand and cooks up the sausage patties when the group holds pancake events at Sally Buffalo.

State fire marshal conducts inspection of County Home Last week the Harrison County Home was inspected by the State Fire Marshal’s Office. One of the requirements of the inspection was to drain the 15,000-gallon suppression water holding tank and inspect the bottom for debris or any other foreign objects. Once the inspection was completed and photos were taken, the tank had to be refilled. Thanks to John Vermillion with the Cadiz Volunteer Fire Department, the task of filling the tanks was accepted. Vermillion coordinated the efforts with the Hopedale Fire Department to assist. The County Home is grateful to Vermillion and the rest of the Cadiz Fire Department, and the Hopedale Fire Department for their time and efforts. Pictured is the Hopedale Fire Department on Tuesday evening after they added water to the suppression holding tank.

By JACQUIE HUMPHREY NH Contributor

BOWERSTON - At the March meeting of the Bowerston Village Council, Mayor Milo Baker and Council President Dan Trushell opened over 20 bids for the sale of the Village’s 2003 Chevy truck.

Council unanimously accepted a bid from Galick’s Incorporated, of New Philadelphia, in the amount of $8,650. Jake Galigher of Galick’s Inc., was present for the opening of bids and made arrangements with Baker to finalize the transaction.

In other business, Council discussed the recommendations from recent Personnel and Finance Committees, regarding the hiring and pay for a full time employee.

After a lengthy discussion Council agreed to hire current, part time employee Dean Moss at the rate of $17 per hour and a $600 per month insurance allowance.

Solicitor Jenna Hokes will construct a contract for Moss, stipulating a time line in which licensure for water management to be completed. Hokes also

suggested a 90 day probationary period be established and a 5year employment commitment entered into, upon completion of licensing.

Council also discussed the need for an operating levy.

Hokes advised that there is time to place a levy on the November ballot, if the process is started immediately. Council agreed on 1.5 millage, Hokes will begin the paperwork for the April meeting.

JEWETT

From PG | 1 Floodplain administrator “to approve everything.”

Allen said they could still be in line for an additional $200,000 depending on if they can obtain a full 50 percent of principal forgiveness from Ohio EPA, which he said was not received. He said they did qualify and are still pursuing that.

“But really, we’re progressing and if we get the property… and a formal grant agreement from CDBG, we can bid the project…” Allen told council.

He said he hoped the project could be bid out around April 3.

“Once that’s bid we’ll have a

pre-bid meeting [and] we’ll require contractors to be here, I think it should be mandatory. If they’re not here you run into all kinds of problems but it’s a great opportunity to find out what’s going on with the project,” Allen explained.

He said there will be a public bid opening afterwards, where the village will then have to “sit” on the bids until they are informed that it is okay to award the project. At a preconstruction meeting a notice to proceed will then be given.

When Mayor Dwight Busby asked if they were required to have anymore public meetings regarding the project Allen said he didn’t think so but it would be a good idea to do so.

“I think it’s a good idea to right before you start construction just to let residents know that pretty soon you’re going to have construction equipment in your village, let them know what the work hours are…”

Allen said. They also discussed some regarding a laydown yard for equipment and materials, where an answer didn’t easily come. He also said that the paving of streets won’t be done quickly as they will have to wait until all work is done just to prevent from having a freshly paved street dug up because of additional work needed.

Village council approved a resolution allowing the mayor to enter into a loan agreement for the project.

HC Chamber of Commerce seeks executive director

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – The Harrison Regional Chamber of Commerce held their meeting at the Ohio Valley Winery on E. Market Street in Cadiz last Thursday to discuss an array of subjects ranging from web design to filling open positions and membership drives.

The big news that opened the meeting was to announce positions within the Chamber members that need filled, namely the executive director. Janeen Scott who stepped down from the position said she isn’t completely walking away and would be around to help out until the position is filled.

The positions of president and vice president were filled with the mayor of Bowerston, Milo Baker accepting the nomination as vice president and Karen Sticht of the Boss Bison Ranch accepting for president where she had been

holding the vice president’s position.

“I’m still here if you need me for anything I’m not just going to walk out on you…” Scott told the crowd.

In other issues Scott announced that the Chamber would no longer be handling any more of Sally Buffalo’s events. She then turned the attention to the group to come up some new events for the coming year.

She also addressed concern for their website to be updated but stressed that they did not want it to be re-designed. Joyce Klingler said that they found someone within the Harrison Career Center’s graphic arts program to help with that at a very inexpensive rate. Klingler said they had been getting complaints about the Chamber’s website.

“We can only afford so much,” Scott answered. “Yeah, that has a lot to do with it.” She added that she had contacted a website

designer who does chamber websites but said they were too expensive.

Klingler also announced that a basket sale held at the Harrison Community Hospital for the Auxiliary produced nearly $700.

“It was wonderful,” she said noting the auction lasted for two weeks with other items sold as well. She said the ambition is to see at least one room at the hospital remodeled and they are currently looking for donations. When the subject of the Deersville Theatre came up and the upgrades needed Klingler told Commissioner, Don Bethel that those upgrades would probably amount to around $40,000 for the whole building, which houses a community hall downstairs.

The next meeting of the Chamber is scheduled for April 11 and will be held at the Puskarich Library in Cadiz.

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – The Harrison County Board of Elections (BOE) received a surprise gift in the mail recently when a $307,920.66 check came through from the Ohio Secretary of State’s office. The amount is a reimbursement for purchases the BOE made back in 2014 for 20 ICP voting machines.

Director Ruby Foutz said they felt this was a possibility but were never sure until the check actually came through.

“We know it was possible we just weren’t sure of the amount,” Deputy Director Denise Santille said. And Foutz was thrilled at the news and couldn’t wait to take it to the commissioner’s office where she could show them the proof, as they were a bit doubtful this would ever happen.

And that’s not all as the BOE expects another sum of money, which they will use for a new Ballotar voting machine. This one is used for early and absentee

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy I like cleaning out desk files much more than clearing out closets. I find some "back in time" interesting events and things I remember from back then. For instance we had a movie theatre in Smithfield that we called George's Movie Place, mostly because his name was George Sturgen. I discovered a sheet of coming attractions from the theatre back in the 1950's and it was great fun sitting down and going over the three different movies that played during the week. Let's see if you recognize any of these movies or the stars. There was Richard Conte and Viveca Lindfors in a technicolor western called "Raiders,"; Bob Hope, Mickey Rooney and Marilyn Maxwell in a black and white movie called "Off Limits;" Audie Murphy, an honest to goodness real war hero, Susan Cabot; and Paul Kelley in a color version of "Gunsmoke;" Gordon MacRae and Kathryn Grayson were in the technicolor "Desert Song;" Rock Hudson and Julia Adams were in a technicolor version of "The Lawless Breed," Burt Lancaster, Virginia Mayo and Chuck Connors were in a black and white version of "South Sea Woman," a story of rousing leatherneck adventure; and Dan Dailey and Diana Lynn were in the technicolor 'Meet Me at the Fair". Apparently only movies on Friday and Saturday were in Technicolor and on Sunday and Monday they were mostly in black and white but they both had a cartoon and news reel added.

Friday and Saturday only had a cartoon but were all in living color.

Kids aren't happy with black and white films. Also included with the movie flyer were six tickets to the theater. Don't know how I got possession of them. Adults paid 35 cents admission while youth through 12-years-of age paid 15 cents. And it didn't work to tell George or Purena Sturgeon that you were still 12 when you had really turned 13, as they checked with the school. Also in the desk, I found a flyer for grocery suggestions from the Hanna Stores, later called the New Co-operatives.

Advertised for the Dillonvale store were a 20 pound box of spaghetti or macaroni for $1.59. And that is right it is 20 pounds. Two 8-ounce packages of noodles were 19 cents and a 58 by 58 inch tablecloth was 95 cents. Hunter Brown was manager of the store. The Fairpoint Store had a 2 pound box of soda crackers for 19 cents, and the same amount of graham crackers were 24 cents. A peck of potatoes were 15 cents and Kellogs whole wheat biscuits were 11 cents. Andy Kuba was manager there. The Piney Fork Store had number 1 fancy onions at 29 cents for 6 pounds; Ovaltine for 31 cents; Weideman Country Gentlemen No. 2 cans of corn at 33 cents for three cans. Victor Ferrari was manager there. The Lafferty Store had a gallon jar of dill pickles for 31 cents, 3 pounds of Lake herring for 25 cents and a gallon of salad oil for $1.40. H.J. Brown was manager. I'm not sure where Willow Grove is but that store had 100 pound bags of potatoes for 98 cents, a pound of Our Special Coffee for 23 cents, two cans of pink salmon for 25 cents and canned mackerel at 10 cents a can. L.D. Keyse was manager of the store. It was sad to hear the names of community leaders who had died in 2018. Dr. Jackie Hutyera read them off while heads were bowed at the Cadiz Recognition Banquet.. There was Anna Mae Hughes Beckley, Helen Chesla, Kenneth McCann, Lt. Co. Betty Morris, Dale Moore, Robert Walrath, Dale Rose, Louise Adams, Mabel Leach Spragg, Shirley Gilbert, Geoffrey Mosser, Margaret Mosser, Guy Staley, Louise Hamilton, George Poole, Richard Walker, Carol Sliva and Gwendolyn Freeman. I saw

Gretchen Bonecutter and her mother, Peggy Poole, at the dinner and I know they were proud of George who had been the Cadiz mayor for a time. My past 4-H buddy, Miranda, was there. She was looking all grown up and I wondered where the time had gone.

Doesn't it flu by?

Communication is more than just talking and listening – it’s about sending and receiving messages through attitude, tone of voice, facial expressions and body language. As people with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias progress in their journey and the ability to use words is lost, families need new ways to connect.

Join us to explore how communication takes place when someone has Alzheimer’s learn to decode the verbal and behavioral messages delivered by someone with dementia and identify strategies to help you connect and communicate at each stage of the disease.

Happy birthday wishes to: Kathy Roski, Jim Ward, Mary Ann Kellar, Dawn Sarvas, and any others I don’t know of or have forgotten.

Happy 41st anniversary to Bud and Vickie Dunlap of Jewett on March 18. Many more to the lovebirds!

Until next week: 1) Nothing you have is because of luck or chance.

It’s all due to God’s grace and favor!

2) The greatest gift we can give others is our prayers. 3) If you lose someone, but find yourself, you won. 4) Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present. 5) In the end, people will judge you anyway, so don’t live your life impressing others – live your life impressing yourself!

Have a great week, take care and God bless.

Just a reminder: There is no open burning for the months of March, April, and May from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. If you are ever unsure, contact your local fire department.

As a reminder....now is the time that most Township Trustees are asking residents to remove decorations from their loved ones gravesight by the first part of April.

Please check with your Township Fiscal Officer for the deadline of removal or information.

It's time for a recipe....it doesn't have to be Christmas to make popcorn balls. Popcorn balls are delicious anytime. My mother used this recipe but there are others one can use. 11/2 cup of sugar; 1/2 cup molasses; 1/3 cup corn syrup;1/3 cup boiling water; 3 Tbsp. butter; 1/2 tsp. salt; and 5 quarts of popped popcorn. Mix the first 4 ingredients in the order given. Stir them over a low flame until sugar is dissolved (about 5 mins.). Cover the mixture and let it steam to dissolve any crystals on the sides of the pan (about 5 mins.). Uncover the mixture and let it boil to the hard-crack state (290 degree F), about (8 mins.), stirring continuously. Remove it from the fire, add two Tbsp. of butter, and the salt. Pour this over the popcorn, mixing it well with a large spoon.

Grease your fingers with the remaining butter and shape the corn into balls. Mom used lots of food coloring to celebrate different holidays or special occasion. Green for St. Patrick's Day and everything was pink for my birthday once when I was young. You get the picture. Experiment, try the recipe, you'll like the popcorn balls.

Happy Birthday and best wishes to Diana L. Hilbert, Glenn D. Deloach, Carla Thompson, Marilynn Cope, jessie Bumgardner, our dear friends Kathleen Falls and Mary Anna Cotter.

Peace, prayers and get well wishes to Bonnie R. Edwards, Tom & Marjorie Bardall, Dorothy & Bob Glover, Ben & Pat Beckett and our dear friend Kelly Love who recently had heart surgery but is doing well.

Deepest sympathy and prayers to Trena C. Romshak family and Dena "Jane" Gilchrist family.

All 'bout Christ Church would like to leave you with this scriptureEphesians 5:25Many things are wonderful gifts from God, which enriches our lives by marriage, blesses us with children, guards us against temptation, and presents a model to the world of how Jesus Christ loves his church. Read and learn.

Love & prayers. God bless you all, Rev. Dr. Ruby Foutz, 740 9462925.

Veterans Administration implements Appeals Modernization Act For years, Veterans that have appealed denied claims to the VA were subject to a complex and lengthy process. Veterans continuous demands to legislators finally paid off on August 23, 2017 when the Appeals Modernization Act (A.M.A.) of 2017 was signed into law. The new law took effect on February 19, 2019.

Jim Thompson of the

Harrison County Veterans office stated that the office has already started using the new process.

The VA had started to implement a temporary fix with the Rapid Appeals Modernization Program (RAMP) in 2017. Thompson went on to say that during the last 2 weeks the office had 3 appeals claims finalized, 1 legacy appeal (3 yrs. old) and two

RAMP appeals (8 Mos. Old).

“We have experienced a speeding up of decisions since the new process has taken effect” said Thompson, “and with the A.M.A., the Veteran has more control in the process”.

The new Appeals Modernization Act is a total overhaul of the appeals process, utilizing new forms and giving

the Veterans more options.

Veterans that have had claims denied or have claims that are in the appeal process are encouraged contact the Veterans Service Office at 740-942-8441.

Veterans Service Officers Jim Thompson, Patricia Largent or Jeff Pesta will assist the Veteran in reviewing their claim to see if there are any benefits for the them with this new program.

Dowdle Scholarship Technology is playing an increasing role in enhancing our quality of life. However, using these technologies while behind the wheel has serious consequences.

It’s been 5 years since we lost our 16-year-old daughter in a distracted driving crash.

Our family story serves as a warning to teenage drivers to make “safety” a priority and avoid every possible distraction behind the wheel.

Protecting our children is always a parent’s highest priority, but figuring out a way to keep them safe isn’t always so simple.

Posting or responding to a text message right away may seem like the most important thing in the world to a teenager, but to a parent, it was our worst nightmare.

Through the Taylor Jordan Dowdle Scholarship we can keep the legacy of our daughter alive.

Taylor’s legacy is ambition, generosity, and passionate to others. Taylor was a beautiful young women who loved people and loved life. She still had a lot of life to live.

We mourn the loss of her life, her potential, and her future.

Our life is forever changed.

Scholarships have become so essential to the majority of students who want to graduate with a college degree, and this is why it’s imperative that you understand the Taylor Jordan Dowdle Scholarship can be vital to your post-college success.

The cost of attending college is daunting, but that’s exactly why applying for and receiving the Taylor Jordan Dowdle Scholarship is essential to ensuring that you won’t struggle to make huge student loan payments upon graduation.

We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the overwhelming support of all our donors and supporters to the Taylor Jordan Dowdle Scholarship. Within the past four years we have distributed over $75,000 in scholarships to support our graduate students.

A special appreciation to Ron Tweedy, Mike Miller, and Ryan McCann. These gentlemen are compelled to invest in you child’s future. Believing that all children deserve access to a high-quality education they need to succeed.

The Taylor Jordan Dowdle Scholarship Golf Outing is scheduled July 6, 2019, at the Cadiz Country Club. Please join us.

I want to also wish our seniors the best of luck in whatever they choose to do. I want thank everyone who came out tonight in support of the kids, and for being there to watch them perform during the season.

Nameth. Assisting Nameth was Ian Howell and Stan Bittinger.

The Husky Traveling Coaches are Brandon Rinkes and William D. Bryant, with Volunteers Brad Bryant, Darrell Allison, Dave Rinkes, Ian Howell and Jake Mallernee. The 2019 Mat Stats Advisors were Jo Croft and Sis Bittinger. Varsity Mat Stats were Kate Evans Hailey Katz, Alexis Jenkins and Kirsten Slone. Junior High Mat stats were Ava Stackhouse, Kendra DeWees, Brooke Heavilin and Sicily Wade. The junior High Manager was Brodie Yeager. One common, and the most important message from Coach Bryant, David Nameth and Todd Dunlap was over the low numbers in students’ interest in wrestling. All three asked that students not only return to the program next season, but to bring a friend with them. The goal is to see the wrestling program start and continue to grow each season. “Moving forward there are goals that will

describe the future of the Husky wrestling program,” Coach Bryant said. “They are the need for more kids to come out for wrestling, a commitment from the kids to stick with the program, attend a weight lifting program during the off season, be a part of the ‘open mats’ program and every wrestler seventh through the 12th grade attend a wrestling camp somewhere.

The awards ceremony also saw the following awards presented: Most Take Downs-Blayne Erwin (second consecutive season); Most Falls-Cody Gamble (second consecutive season); Most Improved Ethan Toto; Lucas Sedgmer Memorial Coaches Award-Cody Gamble; Richard Kirkland Memorial Award (the ideal squad member)-Avery Wallace and the Most Outstanding WrestlerCody Gamble. The Junior High award winner was Hunter Bittinger as the Most Outstanding Wrestler. The Huskies 3 - 9 in dual meets, and placed seventh at Wit-Wayne Tournament, 11th at the Hornet Holiday Tournament, eighth at West Jefferson, 16th at the OVAC’s, eighth in OVAC’s 42nd at the Peg Leg scuffle, 20th at the Panther Classic, sixth at the Buckeye Wrestling Championships and T-29th at

CADIZ - On Wednesday night, the Lady Huskies were in Cadiz to kick-start their 2019 softball season with a dress rehearsal scrimmage with visiting Buckeye Trail. Both the varsity and the reserves got the opportunity to flex their muscle against the Warriors and both did it in Husky fashion.

The varsity would take the field first and record a much

kids.

In Dual meets we lost a few matches because we didn’t have the kids to fill the weight slots. There was a total of 24 points given away at each match because of the lack of wrestlers. Again, I am proud of our kids, and I look forward to next year and more kids out to help our efforts,” he added! Team letters for the season were

presented to Avery Wallace first, Dillon Drapp first Justin Sampson first, Logan Ellis first, Ethan Toto first Austin Howard second, Bryce Wade third, Hayden Wallace third, Tucker Coultrap third, Zane Everhart third, Zach Marbais third, Luke McKinney third, Cody Gamble third, Blayne Erwin fourth and Josh Croft fourth.

better performance than their guests, along with the better score. The infield for the Huskies was sharp and accurate, while the outfield gave up nothing. Kaylee Elliott opened the game on the mound for Harrison and she gave a workman-like performance. The mainstay behind the plate was Maddison Young. Young had the opportunity to call the game, while coach Darrin Young graded the performance.

At the plate Jocyln Peshek is back and in good form for an all-round good season. Her defense is as solid as any infielder in the valley. Kobey Johnson is also ready to help the Huskies. She, like Peshek, has a 12-gauge arm, and is using it already to gun down runners.

When you look at the Husky’s line-up card, and weigh it against the odds of a good season, the scales tip toward ‘well yes!’

For Scott Porter and the junior varsity squad, they may be young, but they play like they’ve

“Unfortunately, our seniors didn’t have the year they wanted,” Bryant went on. “That was simply because we didn’t meet our goals. I want to compliment the wrestlers for their efforts this year.

Conotton Valley coming of age with upgrades

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

ORANGE TOWNSHIP – The Conotton Valley High School is experiencing a renaissance of sorts with numerous upgrades they are beginning to witness. A little tour by Athletic Director Dave DiDonato on a chilly day last Friday took us past the brand new concession stand that’s next to and will service the softball field and the baseball field.

The softball field is getting lights and the football field is now getting new artificial turf and is expected to be in place in May, well before football season, DiDonato said as he drove his golf cart past mounds of dirt being moved by bulldozers.

“Oil and gas money,” he said is where the funds are coming from. But the biggest prize is yet to come with their new

Rocket Center on the way.

The Rocket Center is a planned expansion to the high school for the purpose of expanding “school programs and offering health, fitness and wellness facilities for community use.”

The Center will be connected to the high school and hopefully will be completed by August 2020, or Christmas time at the latest, according to Principal, Todd Herman.

“We think the Rocket Center will transform the school in making it the center piece of our community,” Herman said. He explained that this was several years in the making where they knew some funds were coming in. They looked at the needs of the school and community and tried to see where the most benefit those dollars could be used.

Herman talked of the support they’ve gotten from the community while noting

Major upgrades are coming to Conotton Valley High School with new artificial turf due to be completed this May. Also, lights for the softball field and new Rocket Center with amenities usually seen on college campuses due sometime in the later half of 2020.

that they pay “higher taxes than anyone around.” He said they didn’t know how long those oil and gas funds would be coming in but he and the school board wanted to do something for the community.

Herman said for members of the community that pay taxes the Rocket Center will be free to them, as it will to the students. For anyone else who wants to join, they can do that for a fee but all will be open to

the public.

Among the amenities the Center will have are an 8-lane indoor pool, an elevated walking track, gymnasium, a 6-lane bowling alley, daycare and pre-school, senior center,

media café, fitness equipment with team and family locker rooms and more.

Herman said the cafetorium would be completed in time for the new school year in August of 2020.

Lakeland considers concealed carry permit

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

FREEPORT – The issue is beginning to creep up around various communities around the Ohio Valley and Tuesday with at least one university discussing the issue, but the Lakeland Academy board discussed the topic with Superintendent Scott Bardall addressing the issue.

Bardall said that two of their teachers already have conceal-

carry permits and that was the reason the issue was raised as they volunteered to bring their weapon on site. It wasn’t a long discussion but board member James Fleming stated that he wanted the issue voted separately from the others.

“Reason being, I’d like to see how that’s going to affect the school’s insurance liabilities,” Fleming explained and also wanted information on other schools that have enacted that policy, which Bardall said there

were a couple local ones to study.

“And I think we should probably have the sheriff come in and you know, whoever is going to be licensed with that possibly some additional training with the sheriff’s office…” Bardall agreed then asked if the issue could be tabled for further review, which the board agreed to do.

Fleming said he felt they should take some additional time considering the “legal liability” he called it and felt that it would hover over the issue. He felt the

Graphic Arts program thrives at Career Center

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Matt McFarland has a thing going on at the Harrison Career Center (HCC) and it’s called the graphic arts program.

The visual graphics instructor, McFarland has been instructing for three years now but his first at HCC. This isn’t anything brand new but with the advent of graphic arts in television and movies becoming more apparent the timing couldn’t be better.

“Everything you see on TV has computer graphic content,” McFarland said. He also added that the program as tripled in enrollment in just the past year with 12 already signed up for next year. And everywhere one looks, anything from posters to yearbooks and websites there is computer graphics involved.

They even have a little 3-D printer that can print out items albeit on a smaller scale.

McFarland displayed a small vase made out of cornstarch where it’s fed into the machine looking like weed eater string, as he described it. It then melts inside to make the mold and there you have it.

Principal Larry Bossell said the program is in its fourth year and explained that the move was basically a natural one from what the young population has been gearing towards, which is

computers and that level of interest.

“The program came into existence at the career center due to a high interest from stakeholders for a program that would address technological needs and education at the local level,” Bossell later explained via email. “We received many inquiries from local organizations who felt overwhelmed with the thought of designing and maintaining a website.” He said there was also a lot of interest in photography, digital editing and 3-D animation.

“The program can be thought of as a collision between art and technology.” That level of interest has produced a group of individual personalities like “Epic Cool Guy” as he wants to be known. He came up with a little robotic vehicle that he programmed to execute numerous functions such as differentiating between black and white where it will follow either color along its own path. It can even tell a knock-knock joke.

Hannah Dulkoski has been given the assignment of designing the Harrison Regional Chamber of Commerce website. She designed the yearbook for BelmontHarrison Career Center for 2017-18. She said the biggest issue was in the preparation in dealing with all the photographs and distributing the order and correct placement.

McFarland said they are the only

ones doing 3-D modeling in the entire area. And aside from maybe the Pittsburgh area or West Liberty, even the colleges are still teaching 2-D. Bossell said the program will continue to adapt as new technologies emerge and along with 3-D design and the printing of those capabilities they are also exploring the possibility of utilizing “Panono equipment that will allow for 360 degree panoramic photo content,” which is the same technology used by Google Maps.

Buckeye Local collects 33 units during blood drive DILLONVALE — School and community members rolled up their sleeves at Buckeye Local High School during the 25th annual blood drive on March 19.

About 33 units were collected to help save lives during the event, which was sponsored by the student council in conjunction with the American Red Cross. Student council members manned stations from registration to the canteen while Red Cross officials oversaw the blood collection and organizers said contributions were steady throughout the day.

Advisor Jaide Brown said the school organization raised 35 units this past fall and a similar goal was set for the spring event.

Although about 47 people were registered, about 39 donors were processed with 33 total units collected. Brown said another seven donors were unable to be processed due to time constraints, but she was pleased to see people involved because it helped so many others.

“It was moving pretty steadily.

Ultimately, we ended up with 47 people signed up and we’ve had some people call and say they wanted to come in. The Red Cross gave us a total of 33 units as a goal this fall and we made 35 units, so we at least wanted to match our goal.”

She said to reach the campaign goal, the Red Cross provided the student council

with 45 appointments. About 42 BLHS students, staff and community members signed up but the student council always tries to fill more spots in case someone is unavailable to donate the day of the drive. The student council has sponsored blood drives for more than two decades and attempts to conduct two each year. It also benefits the organization since the Red Cross provides scholarship money to graduating members. “[The amount] depends on the units collected, but we’ll have at least one scholarship guaranteed and this blood drive could make it a higher amount.”

Brown continued that the campaign makes a significant difference and the blood donated during the previous campaign has been used at the Wheeling Clinic, Marietta Memorial Hospital, Uniontown Hospital and Charleston Area Medical Center. Meanwhile, the school has collected 1,170 units of blood with 1,384 total donors over the course of 24 blood drives. She noted that Buckeye Local has also hosted 688 firsttime blood donors, and at this time several registered contributors made milestone donations, including a senior who will achieve a half-gallon of blood contributed.

One of the major donors was high school business and marketing teacher Roger Roberts, who has provided more

than a gallon of blood to date.

He said he’s made nine donations at BLHS events in addition to 20 others in the community.

“I gave once and thought it was a good idea, so I decided to give more because it helps others,” he added.

Students on hand concurred that they enjoyed participating in such a good cause.

“I like to help people,” said junior Emily Berry, who gave blood once before.

Like Berry, it also marked the second time for juniors Kya Demeter and Bryan Blazeski to take part.

“It’s helping other people, so that’s what it takes,” Demeter said. “You’re saving lives, so please donate. We appreciate the people coming from outside the community and donating here.”

“It helps out the community,” Blazeski concluded.

normal school insurance “may not cover that.”

Bardall named Newcomerstown and Indian Valley as two schools who do have the permits-which they both confirmed when contactedthat he would like to speak with before continuing on.

Also, Treasurer Todd Johnson said that regarding their financial situation “everything is going according to plan.” He said they are just over their budget in the revenue department but said that

could change if enrollment changed in the near future. He added that February’s enrollment was the same as in January but March funding, which was received, dropped by a half of a student but called it not a significant change.

“So, we’re still projecting to be right around budget just maybe slightly over budget, which is a good thing for revenue,” Johnson explained. For expenditures he expected to be slightly under budget with their cash balance

being above projections. He added that they should be expecting some federal grant money either later this month or in April.

Bardall also addressed other issues with one being his contract and a possible signing of three years. He told council it had been a one-year contract and said it wouldn’t hurt his feelings to stick with that but he was also okay with whatever the board chose to do.

Farm Credit Mid-America to distribute $146 million in Patronage program Ohio customers to receive more than $40 million of payouts in third year of program CADIZ – Farm Credit Mid-America, which has a local office in Sugarcreek, is returning $146 million to eligible customers as part of its Patronage program, and under this year’s plan, customers in Ohio will share in more than $40 million of that payout.

“Patronage not only demonstrates the value of belonging to a cooperative – our customers also are our owners – but it has direct and positive benefit for every eligible farmer and agricultural business customer/owner of Farm Credit Mid-America,” said Patrick Link, Regional Vice President Lending, Baltimore, Ohio. “And this is an especially meaningful year because of the challenging economy and market uncertainties our farmers have faced. This year’s Patronage provides real help during a time of real need.”

With this year’s Patronage payout, FCMA will have returned $262 million to customer/owners over the last three years. Patronage is not a guarantee – the association’s board annually

has to approve the program, and not all customers will receive a check.

Of the association’s $23billion portfolio, $11.4 billion is Patronage eligible.

“We work hard to do our best for our farmers,” said Bill Johnson, Farm Credit Mid-America president and Chief Executive Officer. “To help them make their operations as successful as can be. Few lenders offer this type of advantage.”

Local office leaders across the four-state territory will deliver Patronage checks by hand – 36,000 total checks that exceed $20,000 – with the remaining arriving by mail the week of March 2529. The average check amount is about $3,000, and there are 1,000 checks that are greater than $20,000.

The amount each eligible customer will receive is proportionate to the transaction level with FCMA during 2018. Patronage is not funded by rate increases and rates are not increased to pay Patronage. Interest rates change daily and are market driven.

Whinnery retires from Farm Service Agency

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

HOPEDALE - Enjoying what is accomplished in life every day is a plus in the work force and Robert "Rob" Whinnery seems to have employed that aspect in his 29 years and 4 months, he didn't count the days, in his career at the Farm Service Agency.

Born and raised on a dairy farm in southern Jefferson County, he is still farming, with 60 ewes, and 20 cows in Harrison County, the top sheep producing country back to the 1800's. He was in the "Stick With It" 4-H Club in his youth as well.

Giving thought to his career beginning, he started in Trumbull County and was employed there for four years.

In 1994, he came to Hopedale where the FSA just

involved Harrison County. In 1995, it combined with Jefferson County in a new building. It had been located on East Warren Street in Cadiz the first year in business.

Ray Rummell and Tom Perrin, also well known names in the farming industry, did the footwork for the FSA, and Rob emerged as the county executive director. "My office employs and implements the Farm Bill.

On the Farm Bill side I saw to it that producers got payment," he said.

Farmers once had to come to the office for farming assistance but now with computers, they can go on line and do most of it, it was noted.

His wife of 40 years in June, Vickie, is a retired counselor at Belmont College and they are both enjoying spending time together. They have two daughters, Laura, a

graduate from the Ohio State University in pharmacy and now employed at the James Cancer Hospital in Columbus.

Katherine is an OSU graduate with a degree in animal science and will be studying veterinary public health and plans to go on to veterinarian school.

Columbus is a popular trip to see the daughters whenever possible.

Rob is a member of the Adena Lions, where he sings and performs with the members for their yearly musicals. The family attends the Mount Pleasant Presbyterian Church, where he is a clerk of session, and a board member of the Presbyterian Seceder Cemetery of Mount Pleasant. serves as treasurer, is a member of the Ohio Valley Presbytery, sings in the choir and on the board for the Presbyterian Seceder Cemetery of Mount Pleasant.

Robert "Rob" Whinnery has retired from the Farm Service Agency, located in Hopedale, after 29 years and 4 months.

His work involved implementing farm programs in Harrison and Jefferson counties and the Farm Bill passed by Congress every five years among other things regarding agriculture.
