Scio rejects anti-tobacco proposition

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

SCIO – Several proposals regarding tobacco use heard from Caitlin Mathews of the Carroll County Health District last Thursday that the village of Cadiz is considering, was rejected by Scio’s council at their meeting last Wednesday. On the board were three suggested ordinances by Matthews

dealing with banning the use of tobacco for anyone under the age of 21, banning flavored tobacco and also banning tobacco within 1,000 feet of parks and schools.

Matthews presented the same proposals to Scio’s council last week including the under 21 ban, which went over about as well as a smoker in a health food store. Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh wasted

no time stating from the perspective of a military veteran, that 21 was far too long to wait for such pleasures that many enjoy indulging in. “…You’re 18 you’re old enough to serve in the United States military, you’re old enough to buy tobacco and I’m for believing you should be able to buy beer, that’s my ten cents,” Tubaugh said. Matthews said she understood his reasoning but that at the same time

were still trying to protect people.

“But at 18 you’re an adult, legally you’re an adult,” Tubaugh answered adding that it was a “stretch.” Matthews explained that compared to drinking age research where a study conducted

by William DeJong and Jason Blanchette (on raising limit to 21) showed “reduced alcohol use and dependence among youth, and contributed to a decline in drunk

driving fatalities.” They hoped to see similar results from raising the tobacco use to age 21.

Mayor Michelle Carpenter said they would need to discuss the matter but felt the resolutions were not “enforceable.” She reminded Matthews that they had discussed the tobacco issue last year “and I don’t think it

CADIZ – Dave Miller is closing his doors. You may not know him by name but he has been working under the bright red words: Radio Shack for 15 years in Cadiz, 21 overall. But as of April 30, those doors will be closing.

“I want to thank everybody for all the business over the years,” Miller said earlier in the week as he stood behind his counter full of receipts piled up nearly from end to end. Two tables full of merchandise he wants to sell off flank the front counter. For the last three years, except for an occasional fill-in, he’s been manning the shop all on his own.

Miller has always felt that Radio Shack in Cadiz was a well-kept secret. He recalled how people would call up and ask, “where are you located?” He guessed that maybe around 75 percent of the community has never been inside his store. But that is all moot and the old adage that everything must go certainly can pertain to Miller’s store where he is selling the slot walls, shelves and even the plastic holders that hold those small packages of electronics, for example.

NAPA, who owns the building Miller has operated in for nearly two decades will use the space for storage, at least for a while.

“Nothing as of right now except for storage,” Shane Cope, NAPA store manager said this week. He said his store has grown so much that they are running out of space and already have merchandise stored in the back of the Radio Shack building.

For Miller he said, as part of a prepared statement, that his 35 years in the business has been challenging but a “great and rewarding one.”

“I have met and made friends with a lot of wonderful people. For those not familiar with the store, it was truly a wonderful and unique store carrying a large inventory of interesting and hard to find items,” he said from the statement. He talked about how it began as strictly a Radio Shack store but expanded

Commissioners recognize sexual assault awareness month

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Members of the TriCounty Help Center came before the Harrison County Commissioners Wednesday to read a proclamation recognizing April as sexual assault awareness month. Michele Helems read the resolution (14-19) stating that sexual assault affects all people not just women but men and children of all social, racial, religious, ethnic socioeconomic and age groups.

“Taking many forms, sexual violence can include incest, child abuse, commercial sex trafficking, sexual harassment, stalking, and acquaintance, stranger, spousal, and gang rape…” And, according to the

HARRISON

NEWS-HERALD

resolution the majority of the offenses are committed by people known to the victim (over 70 percent).

The consequences of these crimes can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder, substance abuse, depression, homelessness, eating disorders and suicide with the emotional scars far outlasting the physical ones.

Helems provided some statistics from the resolution, which stated that a sexual assault occurs every 92 seconds in America with a child being the victim every nine minutes. Also, one in six boys and one in four girls will experience a sexual assault before their 18th birthday. When it comes to college campuses, one in five women and one in 16 men are experiencing sexual assaults.

Overall, one in five women and one

in 67 men will experience being raped in their lifetimes. But those numbers close in when talking about just sexual assault where one in three women and one in six men will experience some form of it in their lives.

And young people between the ages of 12 and 17 were 2.5 times more likely to be raped or experience sexual assault.

The estimated cost over a lifetime of rape victims is listed at an astounding 3.1 trillion dollars, which includes lost work, medical and criminal justice costs, as well.

“We must work together to educate our community about sexual violence prevention, supporting survivors, and speaking out against harmful attitudes and actions…we are calling on new

Jewett no longer qualified for CDBG grant money

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

JEWETT – Mayor Dwight Busby announced at Wednesday’s council meeting that the village of Jewett was no longer qualified as a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) candidate because their Low to Moderate Income (LMI) percentage had fallen.

Busby told council he had hoped to go after the full

$30,000 that the village could have received for some much needed work around, including the municipal building, but now that will no longer be possible, at least not with CDBG money.

When contacted this week Jody Hennis, office administrator for the Harrison County Community Improvement Corporation, (HCCIC) said the new data was just released in February. She stated that Jewett was now at an LMI of 43.9 percent, down

from 65.7 percent when the last data was released from 2014.

The number that a community needs to be at for qualifying is above 51 percent.

Hennis said only two of 15 townships within the county were eligible, which are German and Washington Townships at 57.9 and 52.2 percent respectively. Only three villages are now eligible with Bowerston (56.7), Deersville (54.5) and Harrisville (59.6) qualifying.

She said the three that dropped

out including Jewett were New Athens and Rumley Township.

“I was going to do some things over at the school plus put a new roof on the pavilion out at the park,” Busby explained. He said shingles have blown off the pavilion and it is due for repair.

He said council could discuss the possibility of just replacing it with metal “if we can, if the finances allow us.”

Busby told council that first and foremost work was needed for their handicap ramp in front of

the municipal building. He said the weather over the winter was the culprit. Council decided to seek prices before making a decision.

Also, Clerk of Water and Public Affairs Rhonda Harris reported the take on water and wastewater collections, which came to a total of $25,751.83 for the month of March. The water total was $13,056.84 and for wastewater, the number was $12,294.99. She also said that for the latest shutoff list, 16 names were scheduled to

be shut off if they don’t come in to pay.

For the Regional Income Tax Agency (RITA) report, Harris said the village was down 13.5 percent compared to March of 2018, which came to approximately $1,600.

For the police report, Chief Ron Carter told council there was a “huge decrease” in March regarding stops within the village.

He said there were only 18 citations but for the most part people were obeying the law.

Ferrell sentenced for role in Cadiz robbery

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The second defendant involved in the November Cadiz robbery to be sentenced was Tristan Ferrell, 20, of Cadiz. That sentence was handed out Tuesday one week after his co-defendant, Sadie Meredith, one of four, had her sentence heard.

Ferrell, represented by Steven Stickles, was charged with obstructing justice, a felony of the third

degree was sentenced to time served with 24 months of Community Based Control (CBC) sanctions and 120 hours of community service.

Ferrell, was out on bond late last year but was found violating the process during a drug screen, which led to him being incarcerated since November.

An Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS) Ferrell took claimed him as a moderate risk for recidivism, which Judge T. Shawn Hervey still noted the finding as “kinda scary.” He said

that type of result might mean you’re “more trouble than your worth” and proceeded to spend several minutes lecturing Ferrell informing him that it was not an easy call placing him on CBC sanctions. But he added, it was the appropriate call at this time.

Hervey added that Ferrell’s “youth and lack of criminal record is persuasive” enough to make his decision. But, Hervey offered some warnings for the young Cadiz resident.

“You’re borderline of having a substance abuse problem,”

Hervey told him. “You’re young enough that this could be a blip on the radar and you can still have a productive life, unfortunately you were stupid enough to get caught up where other people are going to prison for their part in this crime.”

Ferrell was not at the scene when the crime was committed on W. Warren Street last year where a handgun was used as part of the robbery attempt.

Ferrell was facing a possible 36 months in prison and up to a $10,000 fine if convicted at

trial.

Ferrell’s three co-defendants were all facing charges of aggravated robbery in the first degree with weapons under disability and tampering with evidence thrown in as third degree felonies.

Last week co-defendant Sadie Meredith was sentenced by Judge Linton Lewis to three years in prison with a chance at judicial release after 18 months.

She pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery in the second degree while the other two charges were

dropped.

Another co-defendant Jacob McPeak saw his fate delayed by a motion to suppress, which was filed by his attorney Travis Collins earlier this month. His next appearance is scheduled for April 9. The last co-defendant, the fourth, Joshua Burgett pleaded guilty last week but sentence was delayed in order for an ORAS to be performed on him. Burgett also faces a charge of trafficking in drugs and is due back in court April 23.

would include Bakers IGA but no other business. And as far as the school is concerned, it would only be in operation till late August when the new high school opens in Cadiz.

When Matthews asked if council would be willing to sign a non-binding letter of support

stating they would consider the issues, council wasn’t too keen on that as well. Village Solicitor Jack Felgenhauer said it would need to be reviewed before the letter was signed.

Near the end of the meeting Carpenter and the rest of council re-addressed the issue

and the mood was no more favorable to banning tobacco, under the circumstances presented, than they were at the beginning of the meeting.

No vote was taken but all seemed to be on the same page against enacting Matthews’ resolutions.

carry the full line of Radio Shack products.

“When I took over the store it was virtually bare walls, he said.

I expanded the inventory and carried all Radio Shack products. We also were an authorized cellular phone carrier and carried the full line of Alltel phones at the time. That eventually changed and we became a Verizon dealer. Prepaid phones were a staple as well and we were a Tracfone and Net 10 dealer as well. We also became a Wilson cellular booster authorized dealer, which is now

WeBoost, carrying a full line of cellular amplifiers.

“The store continued to expand as we became a full line hobby shop carrying trains, models, RC cars, puzzles, paint sets, crafts and a whole lot of other toys and hobbies. At one time we carried pedal cars and also the famous original Big Wheels bikes. The Radio Shack in Cadiz was truly a unique one, being the only one in the country that had a hobby shop in it as well. We were also an authorized John Deere farm toys dealer.

Miller said that he always tried to pattern his store after the old stores of the past that went above and beyond to satisfy their customers.

“I have always tried to give my customers the best service,” Miller stated. “Whether it was getting them free minutes on their cell phones, replacing

watch batteries, delivering products and hooking them up for them, or just giving them help or advice over the phone.”

Miller invites everyone to stop by the store, especially those who have never been there, to see what a great store it was.

“There is a great deal of merchandise left and customers should stop by and check out all the great bargains. Everything is on sale and all merchandise must be sold, including all store fixtures.

“I am not really retiring but am going to pursue my new career as a real estate agent. I have had my license for a year and have done it part time. I will be leaving Radio Shack and will become a full time realtor with Harvey Goodman realtor. I would like to invite all my friends and loyal customers to come and see me for all their real estate needs.

MWCD changes emergency responder programs

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

NEW PHILADELPHIA – A program the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) has had in place since 2006, the Emergency Medical Response (EMR) program, was re-addressed by Director of Human Resources Mary Burley.

Their Safety Administrator Scott Tritt and law enforcement within the recreation department analyzed the program where Burley said there has been a “downturn” in employees participating in the program.

“And part of that is the time it takes to get the Emergency

Medical Responder certification, although we’re paying their time to go…” she explained. She added that it was complicated where classes take longer now but after more research by Tritt, they found that the American Safety Health Institute (ASHI) offers some “high level” first aid training.

After conferring with other department heads they felt that this would be a better fit and would allow them to keep certain subscriptions that are needed based on Ohio Revised Code changes.

“There’s two provisions that would allow us to maintain epinephrine and Narcan and provide training to our park staff

to administer those in emergency situations,” Associate Counsel Jonathan Mizer explained, “and they would not have to be an EMR certified individual.”

He continued by describing the EMR program as extensive while requiring “48 hours of basic training” and an additional 15 hours each year, which he said led to conflicts. Mizer said there were some cost savings included in the ASHI program where Tritt did not have to maintain certain licenses and dealing with pharmacies, as well as paper work that had to be filled out.

Mizer said with the new program there is an eight-hour

class that could be supplemented by an additional 16 hours of class “plus you can do modules” that deal specifically with Epinephrine and Narcan.

“So this is a much more streamlined process,” Mizer stated while providing the emergency drugs needed. “And we’re still able to provide these emergency drugs in situations to provide for our campers and our guests.”

Burley said they could also spread the training out over a “wider amount of staff” to learn simple tasks versus the “high level” EMR training sessions only available to their park rangers, for example.

Upon Burley’s request the board approved to discontinue the EMR program and adopt the one from ASHI. Also, the board approved of four easements, two for Atwood, one for Charles Mill and one for Piedmont. Chief of Engineering Boris Slogar gave a brief rundown on the items beginning with AEP’s request for an underground easement in order to provide power to their tower, as well as an easement for fiber optics involving Frontier Communications.

An easement for fiber optics at Charles Mill involving Charter Communications was also approved and the approval for Piedmont was another AEP

easement request. A concession agreement was also approved for Seneca Beach with Chief of Recreation, Scott Barnhart providing the explanation. He said a Request For Proposal had been sent in their search for a vendor to operate the concession stand and received just one response.

Barhart stated the bid came from Tim and Julie Orr who he said had been in the business for the past 56 years. He recommended a three-year lease agreement with a 7 percent return on “all gross revenue.”

The board approved this request as well.

Area youths enjoy Spring Egg Hunt New high school to have

turn lane on Ohio 9

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

CADIZ - There could have been a few rain drops but it didn't do anything to spoil the fun of children from 4 through 12-years-old in gathering up the plastic, brightly colored eggs that were filled with candy treats at the Spring Egg Hunt held last Saturday at Sally Buffalo Park.

There were even several bunnies hopping around to give the egg hunt atmosphere outside.

The Green Valley 4-H Club, Tillie Heavilin's club for many years, had the center fireplace to themselves to be seated with an adorable bunny to hug and have a picture taken. Carley Rogers, one of the members, was holding bunny ears that the child could wear when getting a photo snapped.

Josie Corder and Bella Felda, 6-year-old cousins, were getting friendly with one of the floppy-ear rabbits with a cute face. And Emmeline Kimble, 3 1/2; and her sister, Isobel, 1 1/2years-old, were outside picking up eggs and putting them in a fuzzy rabbit face basket, although Isobel was more interested in opening an egg and tasting the goodies inside. After the hunt was over, it was time for the awarding of door prizes, with some being a shiny new bicycle.

Joelle Bensie, Harrison Tourism Committee director, was present with brochure about the county and its amazing sights and history. She had an 8-foot sign with pictures of Tappan Lake in the autumn, the Bison Farm, Ourant School, Clark Gable home, 8-sided barn and Custer reenactors, with many more interesting and

historic places to see.

Hayden Bittinger, a member of Cadiz Ranchers 4-H Club, was wearing a sash proclaiming her to be the Sally Buffalo princess for the September event that is held each year.

The Cadiz Lions quickly switched from the mixing and flipping of pancakes, frying sausage patties, clearing tables as soon as one set of customers finished and another was ready to dig into breakfast than they

had to get ready for the soup and sandwich lunch. Some of the cooks were John Tabachi, Gary Barker, Leonard and Dollie Ferrero.

There were children getting their faces painted to look like the whiskered bunny or any desired appearance, playing games, painting small tiles and taking part in many games.

There are many organizations and helpers to thank for the wonderful Easter event.

CADIZ – Last month’s Cadiz village council meeting produced a bevy of information and one of the items dealt with the turn lane the school is working on getting in place for Ohio 9.

Megan Seer of the Koeinger Group, an engineering firm working with the Harrison School District, said the lane would connect with Liggett Lane and said plans have been submitted with the village as well as the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) for review.

Village Solicitor Costa D. Mastros told council it would not cost the village any money because it is not the village’s project.

“Because this lies within the village of Cadiz we have jurisdiction over this area,” Mastros explained. He said that the village, though, would need to hold “certain easements in certain properties for this to be built because it lies within our jurisdiction.” He added that after conferring with the school’s attorney that since the issue deals with a state road, it would make sense that the state should hold those easements.

Regarding the maintenance of the road, he said he was told by someone within ODOT’s District 11 that the village would receive help in general maintenance but as far as paving goes, it falls back into the village’s hands.

“Other than that they (the school) need our consent to do this,” Mastros said adding that the consent would come in the form of an ordinance the village would need to pass.

Seer said no traffic light was needed, just a stop sign “at the new Liggett Lane” with a left turn lane on the southbound side of Ohio 9. And with that village council passed a motion authorizing Mastros to create an ordinance for the turning lane.

Also, Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski stated in his report that a conference call took place with Ohio EPA and E.L. Robinson Engineering over the scheduled April 12 SCEIG meeting to be held in Cadiz. “…We will be representing the progress on the Sewer System upgrades and the costs. We will be looking to lay the groundwork for future financial assistance from the various State or Federal funding sources,” Andrzedrewski explained.

He also reported that bulk water sales were resuming after work was completed on their

Bulk Water Filling Station next to the water plant. He said he had received an inquiry from the Shell corporation about them purchasing bulk water. He said they were now working on a price for those sales.

Regarding the tree-planting around the uptown area, Andrzedrewski said Kevin Jones would be completing the project of planting 26 trees, “which have already been purchased.” He said the price was $7,650, which includes fertilizing all 64 trees twice per year, as well as trimming the trees approximately four times per year.

“This can be considered a yearly maintenance contract for taking care of the village trees so that our street department does not have to do the work,” Andrzedrewski told council.

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy Todd Henry, Brilliant Lions Club treasurer, has to miss meetings at times due to his need to baby set his grandchildren. A suggestion was made by a member that maybe we should get a child's seat for the child to be seated by his grandfather during the meeting.

The Brilliant club is holding a pulled pork dinner on April 28 from noon until 2 p.m. Curt Creamer is the one who prepares the smoked pork that is then mixed with a barbecue sauce that makes it really delicious. There is a big sandwich, baked beans, cole slaw, a pickle, dessert of cake or pie and a beverage for $10. Allison Yanssen became a member of the club at the last meeting. The club will be donating to a delegate to Boys State for the Brilliant American Legion. A total of 219 pairs of eye glasses and 33 hard glasses cases will be sent to the District Convention in Canton on April 27. I learned some things about gardening from reading to the young JB Green Team at the Pugliese Elementary School in Steubenville. A group of members from the Jefferson County Farm Bureau Promotion and Education Committee go to all elementary schools in the county and read a book that is approved on farming by the American Farm Bureau.

The book I read was called "What's That You Say" and it told where various produce, dairy, beef and other meats and grains come from and how they start with seeds being planted or animals being fed and nurtured. Some of the things I learned from the Green Team is that earthworms aerate the ground making for better seed growth.

Caterpillars are quick change artists as they are fuzzy crawling creatures and then appear as a chrysalis and later a beautiful butterfly.

Bees buzz to communicate with other bees.

And a third grader told me to recycle a tin can that contained soup. "You wash it out, along with the lid and tear off the label before you throw it away." Nice going JB Green Team, you did a great job of teaching the children. I have to say that Dean Rutan's rendition of

"Takin Care of Business" has been playing through my mind for two days since seeing the Adena Lions Club's "Working Lion to 5" production. Jessica Harr, Denise Howell and Angelica Kidd proved to be great dancers around Rob Whinnery as he sang "I Wanna Be a Producer". And I was amazed to have my story on Rob Whinnery's retirement from the Farm Service Agency in the News Herald read

by Dennis Kinsey on stage. Of course, Dennis added some funny things to the story. But it was a nice gesture. And Mr. Kinsey told me that he even reads my Smithfield column, so I know he will see this. I'm just glad he hasn't received broken bones from some of the stunts he performs in the annual shows. He once stood on the end of a see-saw and Drew Case pulled the board up in the air and Dennis went flying. I met Bill Ralston, the Adena Lions president, and he tells me he reads my stuff all the time. Lamont said I was wearing a big smile as I walked out of the show last week..

I got to talk with Leah and Anne, John Parkinson's daughters, as we came out of the show. They live in Lakeland, Florida and were here for a visit and to watch dad as he announced the acts. This is called an interlocutor and he has done this job for more than 60 years.

Lamont and I know the Lakeland area well as my very best friend, Florence Turnbull, lives there too.

Someone else who is very funny is Artie Hartline. He gave me a list of eight funny sayings that make you stop and think. Here are a few: "Be thankful for more than just elastic waistbands." :Let me be half the person my dog thinks I am."

And for this Easter season when there are so many great Lenten services here is another one.

"Don't wait for a hearse to take you to church."

JEWETT/CADIZ

By Ruby Foutz Easter Sunrise Community Service will be held at the Jewett Presbyterian Church at 7:00 a.m. on Easter Sunday, with breakfast following. Everybody welcome.

I'm not sure if Spring has sprung or if Winter is still here. A few days ago it was 56 degrees out and I actually pulled weeds from one of my flower gardens. If I could only stay ahead of those weeds. And, I'm tired of the cold, especially the wind.

There was an interesting article in last weeks Harrison News Herald where the Sheriff warns about income tax scams. Scamming is so prevelent these days: Mail scams, phone scams, money scams, IRS scam and the list goes on. If you see or hear of something that sounds too good to be true, contact the Sheriff's Office at (740) 942-2197 or the Attorney General's Office at (614) 4664986. It's better to be safe than sorry. Furthermore, you may be helping others.

A BIG hello out to Betty L. Carman Thompson and husband.

Congratulations to the Cadiz American Legion Post 34 on their 100th Anniversary.

Congratulations to Nicole Janosco and Dustin Heavilin on their engagement. There wedding is planned for April 2019.

Sorry for putting the wrong information in (that was sent to me) about the Republican Dinner but it was too late to retrieve.

Happy Birthday and best wishes to Chuck Cerett, Karen Dutton (Den's wife), Amy Tullis, Jacob Javersak, John Javersak, Ron Chaffin, James McKinney Thompson, Sara L. Battles, and Ethan Newbrough.

Happy Anniversary and many more to Sandy & Chester Carman, and Sheila & Lenny Fish who celebrated 50 years in March.

Peace, prayers and get well wishes to all that is suffering from sinus, bronchitis, or flu, or a nagging cough. It's like you can't get rid of it. Please pray for all the sick, Rev. Tom Dawson, Mary Whipkey, Richard Godman family, Bonnie & Tom Fife, Mildred Burrier & Bobbi Dulkoski, and Tom & Marge Bardall.

Deepest Sympathy and prayers to Leah G. Riley family - Sep 15, 1924 - Mar 28, 2019 and Jamie Rebecca Smith Snair family. Jamie was 70 years young and worked at the Scio Pottery for many years.

She loved people and enjoyed working for different restaurants in the area and she was an excellent cook. We will all miss her smile and laughter and remember the good times with her. RIP Jamie.

All 'bout Christ Church would like to leave you with this scripture: Job 37:16 – How can the clouds float or hang? Study and learn what God's word says.

Love & prayers.

Obituaries

Look at the Past A look back at Underground Railroad station

This house was built in 1834 by William H. Wilson who cast the first Abolitionist Ballot in Rumley Township. This was originally a log house but some years later was covered with siding. The house was located a half mile SW of Germano approximately 200 yards from the Rumley and German Township line. This house was one of the underground railroad stations listed in the book "The Underground Railroad from Slavery to Freedom" by Wilbur H. Siebert. In the book Siebert states that Ohio had more stations and conductors on the Underground RR than all the other states put together. The picture was donated by H. Floyd Wilson of Jewett to the Historical Society.

MAYOR’S CORNER Dear readers, I know that spring arrived officially on March 20, but it sure hasn’t felt like it! Just keep telling yourself that warm weather is on the way!

I would like to congratulate the Cadiz Business Association, and everyone involved, on a highly successful Cadiz Recognition Banquet. The banquet committee put together another enjoyable evening.

Congratulations again to the individuals, organizations and businesses that were honored.

The Easter Egg Hunt at Sally Buffalo Park was very well received, even though we had some rain. Congratulations to all the youngsters lucky enough to win a bike or a wagon, and thanks to all the people involved, especially the Lion’s Club. Hats off to a great organization!

Sally Buffalo Park camping season officially opened April 1.

The Park is open from dusk to dawn, and actual opening day will be May 1.

The Police department would like to remind motorists once again now that the Park will be in full swing, to obey all traffic laws.The speed limit is 15 MPH throughout the Park, and will be enforced. Extra caution is always needed especially around the little league baseball fields, girls softball fields, and around the ice cream stand.

K-9 Police dog handler Sergeant CJ Byers would like to ask for support for hole sponsors for the upcoming Golf Outing at the Cadiz Country Club on May 4. Hole sponsors are $50 for a sign that will be placed throughout the course, printed with your business, personal or family name. All proceeds are to be used directly for K-9

by Cadiz Mayor, Ken Zitko “Ramos.” Any questions or donations can be directed to the Cadiz Police department at 740942-8844 ext. 221.

News from the Street department is that they are patching nuisance holes around town as weather permits, Also yard cleanings will be picked up if they are bagged, at curbside, and not more than 25 pounds.

The crew has also been ditching along back roads and getting the sweeper out when possible. A town clean-up day has been scheduled for June in conjunction with Cadiz Township; more details will be in the paper when the date gets closer.

The Village has received as expected the awarding of various funding assistance for the wastewater system work mandated by the Ohio EPA. The South and Center Collection System work will be

the largest wastewater system project to date.

HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | SPORTS

Big Reds, Red Devils top Huskies By: D.J. WATSON NH Sports Writer

BELLAIRE – An early season trend is developing for the Harrison Central Baseball team.

After splitting with Buckeye Local last week to open up the season, the Huskies have now done the same with Bellaire after a 14-9 setback on Monday night. Toss in a tough 3-2 loss to St. Clairsville on Wednesday, and the Huskies are sitting an equal 3-3 coming into the second weekend of the season.

Fittingly enough, Head Coach Mike Valesko and his gang will have the opportunity to even up the season tally with the Red Devils this weekend as well.

Battling a few early season injuries and setbacks has been a large part of the early equation and the Huskies are fielding a lineup with half a grid worth of first year starters, so there are some growing pains expected — especially in close games.

The Huskies got a dose of the close game blues against the Red Devils, as they led the home team 2-0 heading into the bottom of the sixth inning.

Unfortunately, the wheels fell off the victory wagon in the home half. Two singles, a sacrifice bunt and a host of free passes put the Red Devils in front 3-2 before the Huskies could get back to the dugout.

Cruz Capers boarded the bags in the seventh for Harrison, but the Red Devils were able to

shutdown any comeback rally with a game-ending double play.

The Huskies rode out their 20 advantage for most of the ballgame, having taken the lead in the top half of the opening inning. After freshman Trevor Carman was hit by a pitch, Colson Dalton lined a double to left that plated Carman for the early lead. The Huskies would add to it when junior Andrew Clelland rounded the bags to eventually score on a passed ball.

Clelland got on by way of a fielder’s choice play that sent Kobe Mitchell to the dugout.

The 2-0 lead held until the sixth when the Red Devils finally broke through.

Clelland led the trio of Harrison pitchers that worked from the bump in the outing.

The Ohio State commit tossed three innings, giving up just two hits and striking out four Red Devil batters. Mitchell took the reins from there, working into the sixth before handing the ball off to Capers for some additional relief. Mitchell was saddled with the loss in the pitcher’s column.

Tyler Tonkovich mowed down the Huskies at the plate. The junior fanned eight Harrison batters, only giving up two hits (Capers double, Dalton double). Tonkovich, not to be confused with Harrison’s injured “Logan” Tonkovich, did however put seven runners on the paths via the walk.

In a completely different style

of game, runs were not coming at a premium between the Big Reds and Huskies in Neffs this past Monday. Through the first two innings, the two teams had combined for a total of 13 runs, and after three full frames the Big Reds led the Huskies 8-7.

The fourth inning wasn’t friendly to the visiting Huskies either, as Bellaire piled onto their lead with four more runs in the home half. Skylar Mazeroski scored in the fifth, and Clelland made it around the bags in the sixth to close the gap.

But now leading 12-9, the Big Reds could apparently sense the momentum swinging back in favor of the Huskies, that is when the home club went to work in the bottom of the sixth and put the game away for good. Two more Bellaire runs crossed in the inning, leaving the tally at 14-9 when the Huskies came to the plate in the seventh. It was just one of those nights for the Huskies, as the Big Reds bunted their way onto the bags in back-to-back-toback plate appearances in the sixth. With the bases loaded, Cole Porter darted a single into the grass to add the Big Reds final two runs.

Bryce Wade labored through three innings as the starter for the Huskies. The Big Reds touched up the youngster for eight hits, and ten runs. Hunter Vancuren and Trevor Carman teamed up to ride out the high scoring affair in relief.

Harrison pitcher Bryce Wade delivers to the plate this past Monday against the Bellaire Big Reds.

Offensively, Clelland was the definition of a human highlight reel. He finished three of four at the dish with two singles and a homerun. That wasn’t all, as the lengthy infielder accounted for six RBI’s and scored three runs

of his own. Mazeroski also had a solid day in the batter’s box, finishing with two singles and a run scored.

The Huskies are back in action this weekend against St. Clairsville for the series wrap-

up. This coming Monday Union Local comes to Mazeroski Field, and Tuesday powerhouse Steubenville Big Red will pay a visit to Harrison County.

Lady Huskies collect both sides of a double billing Three Husky events place at Bellaire

By ED BANKS

NH Sports Writer

CADIZ - Saturday at Sally Buffalo Park, the Lady Huskies were out early to prepare for a scheduled double billing against visiting Steubenville Catholic Central. Still reeling from a close contest on Wednesday against Buckeye Local, the Huskies rattled the bats and walked away with both ends of the schedule.

It would also be an easy outing

for the home standers, as Harrison scored often and fast, while turning the two games into mercy rule events. The first half of the double hitter ended with a score of 16 - 1, while the second was just as far spread, hammering the Crusaders again 14 - 1. The pair of contests now had the Huskies at a record of 5 - 1.

Kobey Johnson was a terror on Saturday. Johnson was credited with nine runs off two triples and 5 RBIs in the opener alone.

In page two, Johnson had a

single, a double and a three-run homer. Britton Positano had a pair of RBIs with four singles and a double; Joclyn Peshek had two singles, a pair of doubles and four runs; Jenna Young drove in three runs in the opener; Maria Roush singled three times and drove in a run during the night cap, and Kaylee Elliott singled twice, while driving in as many runs.

From the circle Sarah Touville earned the win in game one, and Peshek was victorious in game two.

BELLAIRE - On Saturday, three Husky track and field events placed in the top four spots, at the 2019 Bellaire Relays. A first-place finish would be captured in the discus throw by Harrison’s Thea Haney, a fourth place finish was

earned by the Husky 4x8 relay team comprised of Gemma Downs, Destiny Arnold, Jasmine Arnold and Sydney Starr, and a fourth place finished was earned in the 3200 meter run by Jasmine Arnold.

“The Bellaire relays was one of the tougher meets we’ll see all year,” said Harrison Central Coach Wille Walker. “I was

pleased to see us competing against talent should as Cleveland Glenville, Cleveland Heights, Dayton Pointz and Wheeling Park. Those teams bring a lot of talent and athleticism to the table. We got to see early in the year what’s it’s going to take for us to get to the State meet. It’s was a good eye opener,” he added.

Mitchell earns All-Times Leader honors CADIZ - With just 13 players on the 2019 roster, Harrison Central’s Kobe Mitchell made the grade as a member of the AllTimes Leader Boys Basketball Team.

Mitchell received many honors this season, with one of the top earned accomplishment being his 1000-point accomplishment.

Only a sophomore, Mitchell also was hailed as the Division II

Eastern Player of the Year and was Second Team All-Ohio. During the Harrison Central 2019 campaign, Mitchell averaged 26 points a game, five rebounds and dished another five assists.

CADIZ - Newcomer to the writing world, Bellaire High School sport star, youth coach, twice Bellaire Shadyside Rotary Club president, partner in the office of Dinsmore and Shohl LLP, member of the Ohio State Bar Association and Belmont County chief of the Civil Division, David Liberati, was the guest speaker at the Puskarich Public Library on April 2, with his book, "Four by One." Liberati told how he thought the book had ended not once but three times when actually it took over two years to be able to be able to write "The End" at its closing.

"Four by One" is about four young female athletes from Union Local High School who were members of a relay team in 2005.

There were two sophomores and two juniors on the team who kept working to get better but the end turned out much better than they could even hope for.

"If you don't know anything about relay racing, it is four athletes, with each running a quarter of a lap making a baton hand-off at a designated spot. And this handoff makes a big difference in the amount of time that the clock reads in the end," he explained.

He went on to tell that in March of 2005, they saw an improvement in their racing and worked even harder as the district track meet was approaching. There are about 700 competitors in three classes of about 235 in each in this competition, it was noted.

"The top four teams go to regional and then four from other districts compete, narrowing it down to only four teams going to the state. The athletes, Gloria Dawes, Rita Liberati Stiles, Kiersten Gosnik and Nicole Pryor Jones kept working to get better and they got good but you have to be special to win," he said.

"The young athletes broke the school record and at Meadowbrook district competition, a strong wind blew up and tents were flying, with everyone getting freaked out. Our girls saw this as an opportunity to shine. They finished second, two seconds slower than the first place.

That gave them a shot at the biggest chance in their lives. "A special bond put them together on a sunny day in Juneat Ohio State University in Columbus and they shattered the world record."

David Liberati, Bellaire High School graduate and sports star, spoke at the Puskarich Public Library on April 2, about a fourgirl relay team from Union Local High School who won the highest title in Ohio State University history in 2005. From left, Judy Kuryn, Friends of the Library officer; Liberati; and Shelley Dawes, mother of Rita Dawes, a member of the relay team who was killed in a car crash while in college.

The second year, when two were seniors and two juniors, they came close in winning but it didn't happen again. All went away to college but stayed in touch. The second group of seniors, who started as sophomores, went into nursing and education and in her college senior year, Gloria Dawes was killed in an auto accident when rain slicked roads caused her to hydroplane into another car.

She was a dancer, cheerleader, track member and loved animals.

Union Local bore the knowledge of their track fame. When a time came to present plaques for the team after their college years, with Gloria missing, it did not seem the same but each actual athlete was presented a plaque and when it came to the lost member, all looked at each other and Liberati stepped up and accepted it.

"In my book, each character is desperately trying to help someone else. Friendship was priceless, love and faith mattered to them. And here is my experience in writing this book, it was one of the most amazing journeys I have taken. I never planned to write a book or a novel of young adults with their kind of friendship and dedication."

"When I thought of writing I asked my wife, Denise, my high school sweetheart and best friend, if she thought it was a good idea.

My thought was that she would

say no. But she thought it was a great idea. I was a guy who never wrote a novel but I sat down in 2013 and did the outline and finished the manuscript in 2014. I did not want to offend my daughter, Rita, the second member of the track team but she read it and wanted it to be shared with others. Gloria's mother, Shelley Dawes, who was present at the talk at the library, was on board as well.

A cardinal, the bright red bird, helped to keep him writing. After three chapters, Dave was getting disillusioned but the cardinal came to the kitchen window where he was working each morning and would bang on the window.

Somehow, that gave him the inspiration to go on. And in 2018, it became a reality. First, this was being edited by professionals in the business from New York, California and Montana. Then, I had to make other decisions, like the size of the book, the amount of chapters, whether the chapters should be in numbers or written out and have it edited. Then it amounted to getting an agent. I didn't know I had to go through all of this.

'As in Romans 8:28, "All things work together for those who love the Lord' and I know that happens to us when we let God work for us, he said.

Get more bang for your buck with these spring home improvements (StatePoint) The warmer weather means it’s time to start thinking about home improvement projects. Whether you’re getting your home in tiptop shape for your own enjoyment, or getting it ready to put on the market, not all home improvement projects are created equal when it comes to return on investment (ROI). Here are top areas on which to focus: Interiors The kitchen is the heart of the home and it’s one of the best areas to renovate in terms of ROI, according to Remodeling magazine’s annual Cost vs. Value Report, which puts the price tag of the average minor kitchen remodel at $22,507, with 80.5 percent of the cost recouped upon resale.

To give the kitchen an updated appearance, replace the flooring, countertops, sink and faucet. A fresh coat of paint in a trendy shade, such as Living Coral, Pantone’s Color of the Year, can add a vibrant pop of color to energize any kitchen. Not looking to go that bold?

Consider an accent wall, or stick to a classic palate of gray and white in terms of cabinets and countertops. White on white is also a popular new style for kitchens and bathrooms.

Other features home buyers are paying close attention to are laundry rooms and such energysaving elements as Energy Star appliances and windows,

according to the survey “What Home Buyers Want in 2019” by the National Association of Home Builders.

Curb Appeal The popularity of outdoor projects remains strong and it’s for a good reason. According to the Cost vs. Value Report, the biggest bang for your buck in 2019 will come from replacing a garage door. The report says the average price is $3,611, and 97.5 percent of it is recouped when the house is sold.

Other outdoor projects with high ROI include adding manufactured stone veneer to the

exterior (94.9 percent), adding a wood deck (75.6 percent) and replacing siding (75.6 percent).

Looking for a simpler way to make an impact? Sprucing up the landscape by planting flowers or bushes or even just clearing the yard of debris will make a big statement.

No matter what updates you end up making, it’s always a good idea to notify your insurance agent.

“Certain upgrades may change the value of a house, so homeowners need to make sure they’re properly covered,” says Bob Buckel, vice president of product management, Erie Insurance. “There are a few

How to add some excitement to outdoor entertaining

things to look for. Ask your agent about guaranteed replacement cost policies that can cover the cost to rebuild a home in today’s dollars following a covered loss.”

Some upgrades may also make you eligible for discounts, Buckel adds, especially if they make the home more secure. “For example, Erie Insurance offers certain safety discounts such as for installing smoke alarms or an automatic sprinkler system.”Now you have a checklist of DIY projects to focus on this spring. But before you start, take a moment to assess which ones are worth your time and money.

(StatePoint) It’s time to take the party outdoors. Here are some fun ideas for entertaining on the balmy days and nights ahead: - Cool Spread: Host a potluck in your backyard, setting up a long picnic table for guests to display their dishes. You can make things more interesting by adding a theme or challenge.

Whether it’s to incorporate a specific seasonal ingredient into every dish or to only bring dips, the possibilities are endless. Use online tools to help you organize, such as perfectpotluck.com, which gives guests an opportunity to sign up for a specific item ahead of time so there are no duplicates.

- Outdoor Movie Night: It’s easy to turn the backyard into an outdoor cinema. Grab some lawn chairs and blankets and host a movie night outdoors under the stars. You can be sure you get a clear, crisp picture with a projector designed to automatically adjust its brightness relative to ambient light. For example, the XJ-F210WN, part of Casio’s Advanced Series line of projectors, combines a laser and LED light source and uses an Intelligent Light Control feature to

ensure viewers get great visuals.

Powered on and off in as fast as five seconds, this mercury-free, energy efficient choice is right for hosts who don’t like to make their guests wait.

- Decorate: Your decorations should evoke the spirit of the season.

Think garlands, fresh flower centerpieces, paper lanterns and vibrant colors.

- Make Music: No party is complete without music. Whether you’re hosting a jam session or karaoke night, take advantage of the season by taking the musical fun outdoors. A versatile portable keyboard, such as the CT-X700, can help you get the party started. It comes with the AiX Sound Source, which faithfully reproduces the sound of acoustic instruments such as guitars, wind instruments and more, as well as 100 built-in songs, 600 tones and 195 rhythms. It also includes a class-compliant USBMIDI port that connects to most devices with no drivers or installation needed, making it a good choice for an outdoor set-up.

This season, be the host with the most by taking the party outdoors.

Harrison Hills School Harrison Central releases honor roll list District nails grant

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – A safety grant that was snared by Director of Operations Brent Ripley will now go towards special cleaning equipment for the new school. The grant is in the amount of $40,000 and is designed to clean hallways and classrooms without scuffing or marking the new floors up.

Ripley said the total amount for four items needed was $53,000, which the school would chip in the additional $13,000. Two of the machines are scrubbers, one is a sweeper, and another is a walk-behind sweeper and all designed to smoothly clean the floors.

“It’s top notch,” Ripley said of the equipment that is also designed for more efficiency.

The riding scrubbers are to be used on all the halls, classrooms as well as the gym floors.

In other matters that were approved, for Personnel: Breanna Smith as Intervention Specialist for the 2019-2020 school year. And school substitute Toni Starosciak as educational aide (pending BFBI & certification).

Under Business & Operation, three contract amendments were approved for the building project: Amendment 3 (SHP) was $6,250; Amendment 4 (SHP) was $50,352 and Amendment 1 (Stan Associates) for $80,366. A change order was also approved where it was described as for a “larger scoreboard than base bid plus a video display with sponsor panels” for $80,505.65.

Ticket prices for the upcoming football season were set. At the gate is $7 and pre-sale is set for $5. All other events are $5 at the gate. Adult passes were listed at $110.

BLOOMINGDALE-Five early childhood education students at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School will head to Columbus this month to take part in the Family, Career and Community Leaders (FCCLA) State Leadership Conference.

Events take place at the Ohio State Fairgrounds on April 2526 and seniors Brooke Mitchell, Kayla Habbit and Brianna Sheets will take part in competitions while senior Emily Manley and junior Hannah Mitchell will represent the group at the conference. Brooke Mitchell will compete in the early childhood education category while Habbit will take part in curriculum unit and Sheets will participate in the job interview portion. Meanwhile,

Habbit and Sheets will also compete in the lesson prep team category.

It is the second time the trio has been part of the event and they are ecstatic to return.

Participants submit projects to a panel of judges, who then score them based on the student’s presentation. Entrants are ranked with other competitors in that category to determine who receives a medal and the top 10 move on to the nationals.

“I’m excited to go again,” said Brooke Mitchell. “The states are more intimidating.

You are in an open room with people competing.”

“I feel at ease this time because I know what to expect,” Sheets added. “I feel more confident than last year since I know what the states are like.”

Habbit added that she and Sheets would work together on the lesson prep team and they have to provide an organized and themed project for review.

Meanwhile, Manley and Hannah Mitchell will attend a series of sessions at the conference, which is attended by thousands of other FCCLA members statewide.

Early childhood education students at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School will head to Columbus on April 25-26 for the state Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) State Leadership Conference. Three of the members will compete while two will represent the group at the conference. Pictured are, from left, Emily Manley, Brianna Sheets, Hannah Mitchell, Brooke Mitchell and Kayla Habbit.)

Harrison County Genealogical Society holds first meeting of 2019 The HCGS held their first meeting for 2019 on March 25 in the large meeting room of the Puskarich Public Library. President Susan Adams welcomed the group. The program for the meeting was "Cooks Corner" with attendees bringing a recipe, a story about the recipe and a sample for folks to try. After everyone went through the food line and was seated, each took a turn telling what they brought, where they got the recipe and a story. Carole Spiker brought Shoe Fly Pie, a family favorite.

She also brought a rolling pin she had borrowed from her church's kitchen. She said she thought of all the former members of her church that must have used that rolling pin that was listed on eBay for about $38. Peg Findling Messer brought baked corn that was her mother Margorie Findling's recipe. Kelley Michelli brought her Unstuffed Cabbage Roll Casserole made from a recipe she acquired from a get together at her church and Banana Oatmeal Cookies from a recipe that she saved from the Columbus Dispatch. Bernadine Saliva brought Ham with Raisin Sauce she had made from a Watkins cookbook that had been her mothers. Marcia Carter brought Deviled Eggs that were made from a recipe in her "Betty Crocker - Cooking For 2 People" that she had gotten as a wedding gift. She also brought a napkin from her wedding that was 54 years ago.

Sheila Perkins brought Deviled Eggs that she made from a recipe she learned in Home

Economics in high school. Sue Adams brought No Bake Cookies that were a combination of two different recipes that she found on the internet. Good stories and good food.

In the business meeting minutes and Treasurer's reports were approved. The group voted to send a gift card to the Ohio Genealogical Society to be used as a door prize during the Annual Conference. In old business the group discussed the 2019 newsletter, restoration of a painting, summer hours, completing an inventory of recent donations, and possibly selling some duplicate books.

In new business Connie West Reed was recognized for the wonderful article about her work as a local historian on the history of black churches in Harrison County in the Feb. 23, 2019 Harrison News Herald. Treasurer Marcia Carter has the 2018 Inventory and reports ready for the filing of the State and Federal 990 taxes.

Upcoming programs to be presented are: March 27, Bernadine Sliva on the History of Scio Pottery to the Garden Club open house; Sept. 9, to PERI and Oct. 18 to Harrison County Retired Teachers - Sue Adams on the Forgotten Communities in Harrison County; and Sept. 14 Carole Spiker and Sue Adams to the Moravian Trail DAR on the Time Capsule found at the General Custer Hotel. The group plans to work with the Historical Society to have an open house for the public in September.

Donations from Frances Myers Reese, Hendersonville NC and Barry Statler, Carrollton, Ohio were recognized.

Carole Spiker presented the group with a donation of three "Green Books" 1940, 1954 and 1963-64. The movie "The Green Book" just won several awards. The "Green Book" was The Negro Travelers' Guide to Travel and Vacations in a segregated US. It listed hotels, restaurants, taverns, garages, night clubs, service stations, automotive, tourist homes, road houses, barber shops and beauty parlors. The guide was published annually by Victor Hugo Green. The Green Book was for decades a vital handbook, fading out of business only after the civil rights laws of the 1960's brought about the end of legal segregation. In the 1954 book under Ohio - Cadiz, Tourist Homes, Mrs. James Pettress, RFD 2.

Summer hours for the societies library at 134 S Main St, Cadiz, will be Tuesdays and Thursdays in June, July and August from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. or by appointment.

For an appointment one can call Susan Adams 740-942-3137 or Marcia Carter 740-942-2908.

The next meeting will be Monday, April 22 at 1 p.m. at the Puskarich Public Library in the large meeting room. The program will be "Finding Women in Civil War Pension Packets" by Rena Goss. One does not need to be a member to attend a meeting.

Local resident pens her second book

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

For her second book, “Invade My World Heaven,” Jan Simpson tackled an ambitious project, which adds some hints with the subheading: “When God meets with you in the cool of the day.”

Fifteen chapters encompass the 162 page tome opening with “The Land” and ending with “Heavenly Encounters.” She weaves what she feels is the Lord’s message throughout the chapters called “Love Affair, Remembrance, New Awakening, My Presence” and others like “Strength To Conquer The Day.” “I’ve been working on it for several years,” she said of her current work. She said God has a plan for us and felt she was receiving the Lord’s word and wanted to put down on paper words that could help people help themselves through crisis

and tough times.

She calls Heaven not a place to think of where you go when you die but encourages people to think of it as their headquarters.

Simpson also touches on some of the modern vices such as, the cell phone and how it has taken from the use of our pen and the written word.

“Work a little while with the pen. Pens are giving way to speaking to your cell phone," she writes on page 117 in the beginning of Chapter 12: “Building the Kingdom of God.” On the back cover is some very wise and helpful advice, but where many seem to fall contrary to that advice; a sort of trap of following instead of leading. In quoting John 10:10 it says in part: “Don’t miss out on life. Don’t just exist. Don’t just follow. Be a leader.”

This is the quote that author and Harrison County resident, Jan Simpson chose to highlight.

Her second book, Simpson is

Jan Simpson

the pastor of Cadiz Community Church, which she and her husband Blackie, began back in 2006.

People can find the book on Amazon, pick it up at church, (Cadiz Community Church) on Sunday morning at 10:30 at 126 N. Main Street, Cadiz or call at 740-942-3205 and Jan will meet them at the church to pickup a copy. Also, catch Jan on Roku at “Today Word” or church on YouTube at cadizcommunitychurch.

Rover Pipeline paid more than $7 million to Harrison County in property taxes for 2018 More than $69 million paid across the state the first year in operation, Pipeline anticipates more than $165 million in 2019 The Rover Pipeline paid more than $7 million dollars to Harrison County in annual property taxes for 2018, with more than $69 million paid across the state. Across the full four-state project, the pipeline paid nearly $73 million in annual property taxes, and is anticipated to pay more than $180 million across the entire route in property taxes for 2019; taking into account the full operations of the pipeline going service in the last quarter of 2018.

The property taxes generated by the pipeline are paid to the local taxing authorities, which are then responsible for distributing the money based on the individual taxing guidelines set forth by each

taxing jurisdiction, or county.

The property taxes are based on the actual value of the pipeline which is the sum total of the materials used to build the pipeline, labor costs and other considerations. These taxes are paid annually while the pipeline is in service and are used to support local needs such as: schools, libraries, roads, hospitals, health departments and senior citizen centers.

Construction on the 713-mile pipeline was completed in sections with the first section going into operation in August of 2017, and the full project going into service November of 2018. The project is currently transporting an average of more than 3 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from processing

plants in West Virginia, Eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania to the Midwest Hub near Defiance, Ohio, for delivery to markets across the U.S., as well as to the Union Gas Dawn Storage Hub in Ontario, Canada.

Additionally, Rover has donated more than $375,000 to a variety of local non-profits and emergency management associations along the route, which includes the Ann Arbor YMCA, the Mountaineer Food Bank and the Ohio 4H Youth.

Together, these donations and the annual property taxes are part of an ongoing commitment by Rover Pipeline to be a good neighbor, business partner and a valued member of communities along the route.

State Rep. Don Jones testifies on reinstating the Rural Industrial Park Loan Fund COLUMBUS State Representative Don Jones (RFreeport) provided sponsor testimony on House Bill 98, legislation that will reinstate the Rural Industrial Park Loan fund (RIPL).

This legislation is jointsponsored by Jack Cera (D-Bellaire).

This legislation was introduced last General Assembly by Andy Thompson and was numbered HB 695. This fund will help

business leaders in rural areas upgrade greenfield sites and buildings. HB 98 will allocate $25,000,000 to the RIPL from the Facilities Establishment Fund, which currently holds over $300,000,000.

“This fund will help rural area business leaders thrive and develop new projects,” said Jones. “Re-appropriating this money will help rural Ohio succeed by bringing good paying jobs and a better standard of

living to the region.” House Bill 98 will now await its second hearing.

State Representative Don Jones is serving his first term in the Ohio House of Representatives.

He represents the 95th District, which includes Carroll, Harrison and Noble counties, as well as portions of Washington and Belmont counties. For more information, contact Rep Jones’ office at 614-644-8728 orRep95@ohiohouse.gov.

Olive Branch Church to host Grammy nominated Christian rock band CADIZ - The Olive Branch is hosting Grammy nominated Christian rock band, Decyfer Down, on April 13. The concert is free of charge, and there will be concessions, a photo booth, and band merchandise for sale. The church says they want to pack the house with youth, but but are opening their doors to every one of

all ages to come enjoy the show.

When asked why the Olive Branch is venturing into this type of venture, Jason Dean of the Olive Branch said “I’ve been a Harrison County boy my whole life and it wasn’t until I was 21 years old before I saw my first live show, and of course we had to travel outta town

to take in the show. We would like to bring this type of entertainment a lot closer to home for everyone, and as we have heard it said countless times- ‘there needs to be more for kids to do.

This is a professional band that will bring everything we normally have to travel out of town to experience to our own county. It’s safe, it’s

clean, has a positive message, and best of all-it’s free for everyone to come enjoy! We are very excited to be able to host this opportunity, and hope and pray that it will be the first of many more experiences like this in our county!”

The April 13, show starts at 7:30; doors open at 6:45.

When the curtains parted, the audience was treated to a colorful stage with about 34 performers singing to "We Wanna Say Hello" and “Forty Hour Week." Then came the six endmen marching down the aisle and coming up on the stage. John Parkinson was the interlocutor as he had been for over 65 or more times before. The Buckeye Local Jazz Band under the

direction of Stacey Soos played before the show and at the intermission. They had an act in the show where they played "Fly Me to the Moon" as well.

Rob Whinney, a bumbling dentist was to remove a hurting tooth in the mouth of Wally Jancura. You can always count on Dennis Kinsey to carry out a funny skit.

There were songs such as:"Mommas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys"

by Roger Warren who made a mean Willie Nelson. Marty Packer sang "Coal Miner's Daughter" just like Loretta Lynn and Chris Karhel was a chimney sweep to Emily Kay Shriver's Brittish nanny in the singing of "Chim Chimney.”

For all the hilarity, the end was very touching. Frank Zamski, Rich Jeskey and Shari Friend of Post 525 Adena American Legion; Barbara Baird, Dillonvale Legion Post 529; and Manuel "Butch" Garcia and Tony Phillippi, Piney Fork Post 735 came out with their appropriate flags to the playing of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines; and Coast Guard songs and members in the audience stood to their appropriate line of service. Shari Friend came out with the U.S. Flag and led the soldiers

Dean Rutan, left, was the assistant to the antics of Dennis Kinsey as he tries to install a bathroom in his skit. He stepped in a bucket of paint that he wore throughout the skit, had a plumbers helper on his head and used a blower to send a roll of toilet tissue flying off into the distance.

down off the stage and up the aisle. Bill Ralston, Lions president, came on stage to tell the audience that it took dozens to put on the show, with some working behind the scenes, some on sound, some in the band, some clean up and other duties. Lynn Sweeney, Buckeye Local art teacher and her students designed the back drop

and the house band consisted of Kipp Bowers, drums; Brian Dawes, bass guitar; Dustin Kinsey, keyboard and singing "Rocket Man," Ken Staley, electric guitar and playing "Drivin' My Life Away"; Bill Stewart, guitars and harmonica; and Roger Warren, a Lion member who played the saxophone.

Spring Fling promoting Summer Fun at the School of Bright Promise STEUBENVILLE-Students at the School of Bright Promise will be celebrating summer a little early during their annual Spring Fling activity.

More than 60 special needs pupils from Bright Promise, Weir and Oak Glen high schools are expected to converge on April 24 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Steubenville site’s gym to enjoy food, music and togetherness.

Organizer Ryan Finney, a secondary instructor at the school, said the theme is “Summer Fun” and will include a variety of beach and tropical décor.

“Our peer leadership group came up with different themes and students got to vote, and the one with the highest votes was selected,” he explained.

Students can dress up for some fun in the sun and enjoy music and karaoke with DJ Richie Coburn, as well as lunch and camaraderie.

Student volunteers from the other schools have also assisted in the past and Finney added that it was a great way for the kids to fellowship.

“We’ve done it for about five years,” he commented. “It’s just to give our older kids a formal-type dance at the end of the year and to have other schools come in so they can interact. There are some who attended last year and became friends at the dance, so they actually remember them. They love seeing them again and just hanging out.”

Previous events were held by an organization based at Franciscan University until 2015, when the School of Bright Promise took it over. Prior venues were held in Weirton, Bethany, and Steubenville while Steubenville High School students have also participated.
