Post office location draws ire of CIC members We did everything that we possibly could to have the post office located here in the uptown area . . . I mean we offered up at least three different sites.” CIC member, Ken Mason

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – A second Community Improvement Corporation (CIC) member has expressed his frustration at last week’s announcement of a new

location for a permanent Cadiz post office. Ken Mason expressed his displeasure at last week’s Cadiz council meeting that the U.S. Postal Service’s new Cadiz post office would be built on Derek Ferguson’s property near the U.S. 22

and Ohio 9 exchange, and not in the uptown area. Council member Thomas Crawshaw initially raised the issue but specifically on the existing building at the end of South Main Street, which is of course abandoned calling it an eyesore. “We have given them ample time… now they have finalized their current building. We’ve given people less time to clean up their properties, it’s time for them to clean up theirs,” Crawshaw stated. Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski said he agreed adding, “we’re going to take a little harder approach with them too.” Mason’s intentions were to let council

know officially, what the CIC’s intentions were even though CIC President Mike Sliva did speak on the record briefly last week. “We did everything that we possibly could to have the post office located here in the uptown area,” he began, “I mean we offered up at least three different sites.” Mason continued by stating that the village was a part of those conversations just a week before the Postal Service’s announcement was released last week. He also explained details on the CIC’s efforts in researching the cost to

CBA meets new Cadiz village administrator By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ - The new Cadiz Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski is making the rounds and getting to know everyone in the area as they are still learning how to spell his name. Wednesday, Andrzedrewski spoke before the Cadiz Business Association (CBA) to talk a little about himself but mostly to update everyone on what the village has been doing and spending. Andrzedrewski is from the Cleveland area where he served as mayor for 10 years then as city manager in the states of Michigan and New York, he explained. “But then I wanted to come back to Ohio, so luckily this worked out for all of us,” Andrzedrewski told the crowd at the Cadiz Country Club. He continued by speaking of the various government positions, especially in a small town, such as Cadiz. “So what’s going on in Cadiz?” he asked everyone rhetorically. He explained how surprised he was finding the amount of activity going on for such a small place. “The biggest thing you’re going to see in the next two years is a big power plant going in,” he said of Harrison Power’s anticipated ground breaking on Industrial Park Road. “What it means for Cadiz is we get the income from the income tax of the construction workers, so that’s going to help our budget very much when we start getting that income in.” Andrzedrewski then moved on to the village’s water and wastewater concerns and spoke of how much money it has spent and the likelihood of how little its residents understand how much was actually spent. After explaining some general points of operation within those systems he then supplied some numbers. He stated the village has spent so far, an eye opening $15.5 million on sewer projects, which 65 percent have come from loans and another 35 percent on grants, which he called free money. “The next two years we’re going to have to spend another $14 million [and] we’re going to end up with a brand new sewer plant,” he said noting that the EPA has mandated these operations and if the village does not comply, then they would be fined. “So, in four years the village is going to spend upwards of $30 million just on the sewer plant,” he

Mingo Sportsmans Club hosts area veterans for day of fishing Each year the Mingo Sportsmans Club invites veterans to their large lake to take in a bit of fishing and a bit of bragging about the big one that got away. On May 6, there were 22 veterans over the course of the day throwing in a line with hopes of reeling it back in with a winner. The caught fish were even cleaned for the men to take home for a nice dinner. A steak dinner was served at noon, prepared by three great lady cooks. In the picture on the wharf, seated is Gary Green of Deersville, U.S. Army, 1958-59.

Commissioners pass resolution for indigent support By JD LONG

CADIZ – Wednesday, the Harrison County Commissioners read and approved Resolution (21-19) for the purposes of “thanking the governor and the Ohio Representatives” for supporting the State Indigent Defense Reimbursement (SIDR) and a plea for their continuing support. Commissioner Paul Coffland read the entire two-page resolution, which preceded various comments by he and

Commissioner Don Bethel. Coffland said the majority of the expenses deals with Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola’s office work in defending individuals who cannot afford their own attorney. “Currently that formula is shifted anywhere from a 60-40 to a 55-45 split [and] we are picking up those costs locally,” Coffland explained. He added that cuts in the budget to programs such as the Medicaid Managed Care sales tax and other things listed within the resolution, such as an exemption

It is stated in the Resolution that $50 million sales tax revenue loss is expected by fiscal year 2021 as a result of changes in these two programs. “Some counties were hugely affected by this,” Coffland stated. Bethel said they were basically, “only asking for some of the money that they cut us from over the years to balance their

The Resolution reads in part, “Ohio

Counties have experienced a collective $351 million annual revenue loss due to reductions in the Local Government Fund…” along with the programs listed above. It also provides pertinent information regarding state reimbursement to counties for indigent defense, which averaged just 35 percent from state fiscal year (SFY) 2007 to 2016. “County budgets have been strained for decades by the state passing down

Harrison County Veterans Korean War veteran shares 100-year old letter enjoy successful fair By ESTHER MCCOY NH CONTRIBUTOR

By ESTHER MCCOY NH CONTRIBUTOR

CADIZ - Tricia Largent, Harrison County Veterans Service officer was happy to see that a Veterans Service seminar was held again after an 18-year absence. She was looking around the gigantic display hall at the Harrison County Fair and seeing it crowded with veterans of wars since the 1940's and getting blood draws, picking up information on many subjects, and talking to veterans wearing Vietnam, Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine baseball caps. Going to the food stand where fabulous hot beef sandwiches; cold turkey, beef, ham and cheese sandwiches were served; along with chicken noodle and vegetable soup; cheesy potatoes and doughnuts were served was a treat. The seating tables for great food were constantly filled and there was always someone to talk to about their time in service and listening to others. Mike Bongard of Toronto told a harrowing tale about being left for dead when they went down in combat in Vietnam. He was hit by shrapnel that penetrated his skull and into his brain and determined to be dead by one medic. Another came to his rescue, putting pressure on the wound and giving mouth to mouth resuscitation. He was flown to the 24th Evacuation Hospital

The Harrison County Veterans Service had a day for veterans of all ages and wars to come together and get health advice. Coming home after the war was so exciting for a young sailor, he grabbed the first young lady he saw and planted a big kiss. The greatly enlarged picture was part of the I-C in Wheeling and Cambridge Care, in-home companion caring, display.

And Mary Albaugh, of the Census Bureau, said that Harrison County is in need of census workers to assist with the counting of citizens that determines the amount of money to be appropriated.

The event was a fulfilling time for the veterans who had done their time in service. Now it was time for a little reward.

CADIZ - For the first time in 18 years, veterans of World War II, Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan came together to talk and enjoy the company of each other for the Harrison County Veterans Service Office event held at the Harrison County Fairgrounds display building. One veteran, Richard Finney, 85, of Harrisville, was a veteran of the Korean War in 1957-59 but he was more interested in showing a letter that was written to his grandmother on April 7, 1919, from his dad, William. The soldier who served in the U.S. Army for 13 months in France told of some of his day by day activities and was anxious to get back home, it was noted. This is part of a 50-letter collection that Richard shared with his brother. There was a picture of William, standing tall and proud wearing a hard brim hat as well. Richard kept a pack of Raleigh cigarettes from 74 years ago that he received in this rations while in the U.S. Army in 1957-59. He only kept one pack as he traded the cigarettes for candy the rest of the time.

Richard Finney of Harrisville proudly shows a letter from his dad, William, who was in World War I in 1919, and sent home letters to his mother. The letter was dated April 7, 1919, and is encased in plastic so it survived for 100 years. Also, there is a picture of his dad in U.S. Army uniform. Richard has a pack of Raleigh cigarettes on his knee that is 74 years-old and was part of his Crations package. The items were shown at the Harrison County Veterans Day event at the county fairgrounds.

SCIO – A small gathering took place early Tuesday afternoon at the Scio post office on Main Street to honor small businesses as part of the U.S. Postal Services Small Business Week of 2019. Postmaster Marlene McKim and clerk Amy Johnson with help from Billy Stanwick, wife of carrier Tom Stanwick, were on hand to welcome the more than half dozen owners of local businesses who showed up, as well as businesses who were not represented and who were remembered, which included: George Neimayer of Neimayers’ Drug Store; Sam Citro of Sammy’s Store; Chuck Tuckosh from Irish Creek Hardware; Jerry & Juanita Atherton of Atherton’s Bargain Store & Bakery; Dr. John Center from the Scio Veterinary Clinic, Pete and Sheila Koch of the Koch Funeral Home; Betty Hugh from Hugh’s Restaurant, Jake Citro of Scio Sale (pre-owned automobiles), Elisha Citro Photography and Matt Long was there to represent his panel display business. McKim, while speaking with the group, said she was amazed at the amount of businesses in the area and said she was there in asking how the postal service

He said another $2.2 million has been spent on upgrading water lines with another $4.1 million in additional upgrades. “And this is all mandated by the EPA so when you hear the term from public officials…use the term unfunded mandate, that’s what these are,” Andrzedrewski stated. “The good news for us is of the $4 million in upgrades we’re going

could help small businesses grow. “I couldn’t do what I do without them,” Sam Citro said of the service the post office offers. A few provided some details such as Irish Creek Industrial Supplies and Services with their many offerings such as ammo, animal supplies and feed, chain saw sharpening, consignment selling, electrical-farm-hardware and hunting supplies and so

much more. Atherton’s Bakery has pies, cookies, strudels, whoopee pies, cream horns and a lot more to whip up and offer. The postal service would like more small businesses to use them for advertising their business and hosted the event in hopes that “small business owners strengthen their business by utilizing postal products and services to innovate and grow with direct mail and USPS shipping solutions.”

to do, the power plant is actually going to give us a million dollars to use towards those projects to upgrade the plant to supply them with water,” Andrzedrewski further explained. He said for the rest of the money the village is still waiting to hear how much they will receive in loans and grants they have already applied for. Regarding everyone’s water and sewer bills he did not expect them to rise beyond what they have been scheduled for in the next few years. “We’ll just keep those in place and not have to do anymore,” he said. He said the goal for the village is to provide the best services to its residents as they can. He said the majority of income for the village is provided by the 1 percent income tax from workers living in the village, “and a small percentage comes from real estate taxes.”

“The misnomer out there is residents think that all of their real estate taxes go to the village or the city [but] the truth is on that most of the real estate taxes go to the schools and some of it goes to the county government,” Andrzedrewski stated. What is planned for the 2019 season? To pave as many of the smaller streets the village can manage. “So I think all of you are going to see some improvement in the streets over the next few years,” he said. He added for Spring, Muskingum and Maple Streets, there is a $200,000 grant the village received from the state with an additional $400,000 the village will contribute to pave those streets, and to help the water and sewer runoff in those areas.

MWCD releases first quarter Master Plan update By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

NEW PHILADELPHIA – The first quarter of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) for their Park Master Plan was released at last month’s meeting held on the campus of Kent State Tuscarawas. Chief Engineer Boris Slogar updated many of the projects, some in detail, as the project’s amount holds at $131 million. Dredging and shoreline were discussed first with the dredging program being wrapped up with the permitting of the large scale dredge disposal area being currently reviewed. He said that should be decided on in the next few weeks. For shoreline work, the Atwood Lake Park peninsula shoreline stabilization area has been completed and they are now working on some paving there. Regarding the United States

Army Core of Engineers (USACE) and the Muskingum section 729 watershed assessment, they are waiting final approval from that report. “That is the overall look that they did, the Muskingum Basin, which was a massive undertaking for the Corps,” Slogar explained. “In fact, I don’t think they’re going to do it again at this level, looking at an 8,000 square mile Watershed.” He said that project should be wrapped up in the next month or so. Slogar told the board that recent dam inspections were completed at Tappan, Clendening and Piedmont with particular attention paid to spillway structures. “Interesting enough they are looking at Clendening specifically because of hydrogen sulfide damage to the concrete outlets and channel,” he stated. They are now putting together plans and specs for that project. He added that this problem has

been mitigated since they are not drawing from the bottom of the lake as they once were. Board Member, Robert Morehead inquired about continuing the dredging this summer at Seneca with Slogar stating it would be later in the summer. “We’re not on the hook for anything other than the fact that it does delay the project,” Slogar explained adding that the delay would last into June. He also said Pleasant Hill now had three cabins that are under roof. He applauded the job being done and expected those cabins to be sold out when offered because of accommodations and scenery it provides. Then came the Tappan Marina renovations reported last week. “It really is stunning, the aesthetics and the renovations that are occurring there and we thank the board for your support in continuing our design work as we head towards

construction later this year,” Slogar said. Executive Director John Hoopengarner said he hoped the new look, to begin after Labor Day, would restore Tappan to where it was in the “hierarchy of importance within the District.” He then predicted Tappan to be the number one marina “in a couple years.” As he reviewed the entire project Slogar said all projects were on schedule except for the one at Piedmont for the stated reasons above. Regarding Phase 2, Slogar said this week that that budget would probably be released at their May meeting later in the month. - Atwood Park: The main campground improvements (MP Areas 4 & 8 and event parking MP Area 2) is open for business. Construction set to begin in late 2019 for the Camp Area 4 restrooms. - Charles Mill: Headed towards “substantial completion” and they are open for business (Area 2A). Area 2B

has been bid out and they are proceeding on 80 sites, existing restroom and an additional restroom-shower building. - Piedmont Lake: 2019 projects have been pushed back due to a slip that occurred above a water storage thank. They are now constructing a permanent retaining wall. Main campground design is complete and construction on water utility improvements is continuing. - Pleasant Hill: Campground redevelopment for Area 105 & 9 restroom renovation has passed inspection and is open for business. Construction is also complete on cabin roadway and infrastructure. The Phase 1 cabin construction is now underway. Their campground redevelopment (Phase 2 for Areas A & B) have been bid and construction is also underway there. - Seneca Lake: Substantial completion is May of this year

for Parkside Central and Woodlands campgrounds with inspections passed and open for business. Construction is ongoing for their Marina Point campground redevelopment project (Area M10), which includes RV sites, new restrooms, shower house and expansion of the public launch ramp. Slogar stated that $500,000 is being spent for soil stabilization, as well. - Tappan Lake: The campground inspection passed and open for business but there is a delay on the wastewater treatment plant and main lift station project. Pumps for the main lift station were damaged on delivery delaying the project till June. The MWCD was not responsible for the damage, according to Slogar. Campground renovation (Phase 2) is proceeding, which includes new prototype restroom-shower building.

Scio moves to sell old municipal building By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

SCIO – Leading off Wednesday’s Scio council meeting, council member Andrew Turner’s motion to pass Resolution (2019-02) was accepted. The resolution, which was raised by Treasurer Trish Copeland was necessary in order for the village to follow through with the sale of their old municipal building, which they moved out of last year. The resolution states that the village “advertised and received bids,” though actually one was received and opened at their April 24 meeting. The bid was in the amount of $500 from Kinney Thompson. Section 3 of the resolution states that, “All formal actions and deliberations of Council concerning and resulting in the passage of this Ordinance were conducted in open meetings of the Village Council, and all

demolish and environmental side of things for the old post office “in a swap possibly” if the U.S. Postal Service would consider one of the CIC’s suggestions for location in the uptown area. “And unbeknownst to us, and very much to our chagrin...” he told council that he basically received the phone call out of the blue, informing him of the post office’s decision. He also acknowledged that it is their prerogative to make that choice “to go wherever they feel fit.” But Mason explained that he and his fellow CIC members felt they were still in the mix for that decision before being blindsided by the Postal Service’s decision. “And in this particular case we felt that we should have at least had the courtesy of a notification. No one in the mayor’s office, the CIC, Mike Sliva [and] myself or none of the members had any indication whatsoever…” Mason said of the Postal Service’s decision. He specifically noted how he had informed CIC members that the village was still involved in the

SUPPORT

From PG | 1 to counties its constitutionallymandated requirement under the U.S. Supreme Court decision (Gideon v. Wainright of 1963) that the state provide legal counsel to indigent defendants,” per the Resolution. It goes on to say that Governor Mike DeWine is providing to counties an additional $60 million “each fiscal year” and the Ohio House of Representatives have provided another $35 million for SFY-21 for reimbursement purposes. A few other items were also addressed, which included John Kerr of the Veteran’s Service Office addressing the commissioners regarding the issue of moving their office. He spoke of the Westgate building that the Harrison Hills School

deliberations of Council that resulted in such action were in meetings open to the public, in compliance with all legal requirements…” Once the resolution passed there was no further comment. Also, Income Tax Administrator Janeen Scott announced that 123 meters have now been installed with just 18 remaining. She said there has been problems with the technical side of things and hoped by next month that everything is cleared up. She also said there were some problems with the income tax issue. She said a couple of area businesses “don’t want to file the appropriate papers.” She said the matter has been turned over to Village Solicitor, Jack Felgenhauer in order to get it cleared up so she can verify things. “…Because there’s no way we can verify, it would be like telling people not to bring in

your W-2’s,” she told council. Mayor Michelle Carpenter said she liked the clean up day and that it went “really well.” She said the location helped keep unwanted dumping down compared to past years. She said there was a good turnout with only a few people they had to turn away that were from North Township. She suggested that North Township have their own clean up day. “A lot of people thought they just had to have a Scio address…” but she stated that residents had to have an address within the Scio village limits. “It’s always been said that…” Carpenter explained. “Our main concern is inside the village limits.” Village Solicitor Jason Tubaugh could not be present but provided his normal written summation of projects completed or being worked on. Some of the details provided include the wastewater

decision and felt they had till the rest of the month before hearing of that decision. “So it was quite upsetting for us to receive the information… ” Mason said in a disappointed tone informing council, the notion their locations were still being considered after it was published in this newspaper, leading the public to believe there was a good chance the new post office would be located somewhere in the uptown area. Both he and Sliva did not state that Ferguson’s property was a bad location but felt strongly that it is not a convenient one for the many workers in the uptown area, where walking to the post office would have been a luxury. Mason ended with his agreeing with Crawshaw’s comments on having the old post office location dealt with where he stated they have had “numerous complaints” of the old building “in its current condition.” Mayor Ken Zitko added that they were also disappointed but would need to support the new location, with which Mason agreed. U.S. Postal spokesperson for the Ohio Valley area, Nadia Dhalai when reached, stated she

would find out “what’s going on” but as of publishing time, had not provided a response. Also, Andrzedrewski stated in his report that the tree planting by Kevin Jones Landscaping has been completed. He said the contract calls for fertilizing the trees three times per year and trimming whenever necessary. All agreed that the new trees and mulch looked good. Other items addressed: - Andrzedrewski said he continues to work on the grant for Sally Buffalo Park’s playground equipment, which is $100,000. - A signed water agreement for the coming Harrison Power plant was sent to them for their signatures. - A lease for the Visitor’s Bureau was being worked with the aid of Village Solicitor Costa D. Mastros. -Replacement of broken water meters is ongoing and 62 of 157 have been already been replaced. Andrzedrewski said a “good increase in revenue” should be seen when all are completed. Also, a motion to approve the full time status of Cadiz police officer, Keasha Barz, which was passed.

Board now occupies and spoke of interest in that building. He said he has not approached the school board as of yet and said he was waiting on Coffland to meet with the school board, which he said he is planning on looking into the matter. Contacted later on Wednesday, Superintendent Dana Snider said they hadn’t heard of the veteran’s office’s interest in Westgate but stated that the school board would hold onto that building for at least a year proceeding the new school’s opening. Snider said there are several possibilities and they want to be sure they do not need the building before parting with it. Her comments coincided with Bethel’s statement in the meeting as he felt there would not be any definitive answer until the new school is open and the school board knows exactly

what they’re dealing with regarding needs. Kerr said Westgate was a sizable building and they would be willing to share it with the school if they chose. “We’re getting crowded out over here,” Kerr said of their current offices inside the courthouse, “We’re in a shoebox.” He stated that Westgate was ideal because there is only one floor and it appears handicap accessible. “Again, I’d be happy to follow up with them and let you know,” Coffland told Kerr. One last item was addressed and it had to do with the courthouse clock that has been missing for some time, pun intended. Bethel said the individual responsible is backed up with work but it is in storage and will be replaced hopefully, in the next couple of months but no exact date was given.

SMITHFIELD BY Esther McCoy It is ironic how many groups are celebrating a 100 year anniversary this year of 2019. There is the Ohio Farm Bureau, Lions Club and American Legion. The year 1919 must have been a time when movers and shakers wanted to start new groups in many ways. It is told in the Our Ohio" magazine that on Jan. 27, 1919, Farm Bureau members representing 76 counties and many Ohio State University Extension educators, gathered on the OSU campus during Farm and Home Week and adopted its first resolution, pledging to support agriculture, press for the organization of a national Farm Bureau and support the expansion of county Extension agent work. And oh how that has grown. Ohio produces enough soybeans to fill 600 miles of train cars, or the distance from Dayton to Kansas City. Our state is estimated to produce 603,351,290 bushels of corn or the amount of corn needed to supply Japan for a year. Half of all the acreage that is Ohio is farmland, home to 73,201 farms. So, it is easy to see that the ideas of 100 years ago were needed. While the Lions 100-year anniversary will start in 2020, already Lions members are wearing club shirts that show 100 years in service. Did you know that Ohio was first known as the Ohio District and was chartered with 13 clubs? The first club in the Ohio District was the Cleveland Host Club. James T. Coffey of the Toronto Lions was Ohio's second International President in 199394 and International Director in 1980-82. A James and Betty Coffey Scholarship Foundation was established in 1994. Ohio hosted only one International Lions Convention in Sandusky (Cedar Point.) The motto "We Serve" was adopted as the International Motto in 1954. Ohio Lions recycle over 80,000 used eyeglasses each year. This information came from the Centennial Lions Calendar now on sale for $10. A story in he American Legion magazine tells that George A. White was the visionary cofounder of the American Legion and his legacy brought forth a gathering of veterans, families and dignitaries who packed Albany, Ore. Post 10 on March 15 to mark the 100th birthday of the world's largest veterans service organization. In January 1919, Lt. .Col Theodore Roosevelt invited White and some others to dinner to discuss low morale among the war-weary troops returning home. White proposed at a gathering of service members to discuss their issues. As many as 1,000 American troops attended what was known as the Paris Caucus on March 15, 1919, and this formed the American Legion. After launching the organization, the question was "Who is going to take care of the boys when they all get home? And for those who would never get home, there were the widows and children to be cared for. The legion took care of this. White's great-granddaughter grew up hearing stories about his influence on the legion and said, "It's wonderful that the American Legion is still going strong. That would make my great-grandfather very happy to know one of his legacies lives on." Another legacy that lives on is Mother's Day and I think of so many hardships that my mother, aunts and their cousins lived through. I know that my mom washed clothes on a wash board until she had two children. She had a big meal ready for dinner each night that we could sit down to enjoy and she ironed six white starched shirts each week for my dad to wear to the Hanna Coal

Office in St. Clairsville, along with all of all the school clothes that were starched and ironed for five children. She is my hero and I think of her often, especially on Mother's Day. DEERSVILLE By Susan Adams I hope all who could, took advantage of the dumpster for Clean-up days in Deersville May 4 and 5. Many thanks to the village for making this service available. The Deersville General Store is open for business. New spring hours are M-F 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sat. and Sun 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Check them out on Facebook or call 740-827-4203 for daily food specials.

May 2, Thursday, the Women of Mission of the Deersville UM Church held their regular meeting at the Holy Grounds Café in Dennison. Sue Adams extended grace and the group enjoyed a delicious lunch. During the business meeting the Mother's Day Luncheon was discussed. Copies of the letter and brochure sent to ladies of the church and community to consider joining the group was shared. Also, the group discussed having a Women of Mission Sunday some time in the near future. Holly Brindley gave everyone a Gazania flower to take home to plant. She presented the program on "We All Have Struggles" and shared scripture 2 Peter 3-18. The next meeting will be June 6 at the Holy Grounds Café. One does not need to be a member of the church to attend. May 4, Saturday the Women of Mission held their Mother's Day Luncheon "Daughters of the King" with 43 ladies and children attending. We had one "Son of the King", Tyler Hipp, son of Emily Horner Hipp and grandson to Jayne Hines Horner. The youngest attendee was Willa Brooke Atkinson, three-month old daughter of Kelsey Telfer Atkinson and granddaughter to Tenley Wallace Telfer. The oldest was Edith Moore Taylor who will be 97 in July. The person who traveled the farthest was Abigail Klamert's daughter Olivia who flew in from Austin TX. A salad luncheon was served. Kay Cochenour was in charge of the program with help from the other members reading scripture. Hanging flower baskets were given as door prizes. It was a very fun time. May 13th, Monday will be the Woody-Paul Blanket Mission at 11 a.m. at the Deersville UM Church. Anyone who can tie a knot is welcome to come. A covered-dish lunch will be enjoyed. May 13, Monday will be the regular business meetings for the Deersville UM Church. PPR will be at 6 p.m., followed by Board of Trustees at 7 p.m. with the Administrative Board meeting to follow.

DCT is a 501C3, tax exempt organization. Contact them in time to get into the program for the June play. May 8th thru May 16th is the Light Ohio Blue (LOB) campaign, which is to show support for law enforcement across the state. The LOB campaign coincides with May 15 as being Peace Officers Memorial Day. Some suggestions for citizens to show their support are to place a blue bulb on their porch; wrap blue Christmas lights around home or business, place blue ribbons on your mailbox, or nearby columns or post and wear blue on May 15th.

A look back at the Tippecanoe stone quarry

Tippecanoe Stone Quarry. During the 1880s and 1890s Tippecanoe was home to three stone quarries, among the largest of their kind in the United States. The quarries reached their peak in production in 1899. The three quarries provided employment for 150 men that year. Production had reached he point where 65 railcar loads of stone left Tipp during October 1899. By 1905 all the quarries had closed for good. The quarry owners had to abandon the ledge where they got grindstones because of a thin streak of flinty rock in the main rock mass. Also, the introduction of builders cement, ended the use of sandstone. This photo was taken about 1902 near the present site of the gate keeper residence of Clendening Dam.

Lady Huskies fall in District III tournament play By ED BANKS

NH Sports Writer CADIZ - An 11-run inning in the third, sparked by a grand slam homer courtesy of Joclyn Peshek, had the Huskies sitting on easy street through the fourth inning of a Wednesday night District III Tournament slugfest. Everyone knows that the game is not over till it’s over, and visiting Newcomerstown reminded Harrison of that in two key innings. Harrison would load the pads during the fourth inning with no outs, but stranded the runners. Trailing 11 - 5 as the fifth unfolded, the Lady Trojans loaded the bags and in one fell swoop, added four runs to their total to pull within two runs (11 - 9) of the Huskies. Harrison would answer with a score in their share of the fifth to make the score 12 - 9. Newcomerstown added a deuce in the sixth, while the Huskies squandered their opportunity. The seventh was the undoing for Harrison; a game changing string of hits by Newcomerstown put the contest out of reach, as the visitors added seven more runs. Harrison picked up two in the seventh,

Ourant’s Schoolhouse continues to educate By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

HARRISON COUNTY – The annual period of educating second graders for five strong days at Ourant’s Schoolhouse continued this past week with another group of youngsters being taught the lessons of the 1800s, just as they were back then. Tillie Heavlin wanted to remind us of some of the traditions they are following, such as the three bells connected together and partially wrapped

in red, white and blue. She said one of the youngsters in the class was Garrett Wade whose great great great grandfather used to ride delivering goods between the rail line and the farmers, back and forth he would go ringing the bells, which she said were all tuned separately from one another. Heavlin, who called their time with the children in the schoolhouse the “Ourant second grade experience,” said the Virginian had a six-horse team and each horse had a set of three bells all to a different tune. His name was Hampton

Wenner and he was named after Confederate General, Wade Hampton, she said laughing. “It is just as much original as we could make it,” Heavlin said of what she and Jeanie Wheeler (Cleveland Heights), Carolyn Dyck (from Parma) and Alicia Dowdle have been doing for many years. The teachers, who make the days of yesterday come alive like to point out how Harrison County at one time ranked number one in Ohio and third in the United States for sheep products. Heavlin also noted that Nottingham Township was

named after the place of the same name in England for its rolling hills and lifestyle of its time. Since 1994 this old white building with the red roof has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places and is still in quite good condition. The floor and every desk but three that sit in the back, are all authentic dating back to 1873. Even the ceiling, though not original, is an exact duplicate. A company in Wheeling was found to make the same design as the original, which looms over the

Local students get a taste of life on the rig The Ohio Oil and Gas Association has teamed up with Ascent Resources, The Ohio Department of Education and Lt. Governor Jon Husted's office to hold a tour of a well pad and drilling rig for students at Harrison Hills Jr/Sr. High School during In Demand Jobs Week. In Demand Jobs Week is from May 6-10 and is a statewide celebration of jobs, industries, and skills that are in demand in Ohio. Ohio's oil and gas industry took this as an opportunity to share with local students and educators up close a local well pad with an active drilling rig in Harrison County. Amanda Finn, with Ascent Resources said, "we are so very proud of the work we do here in Harrison County and we happily jumped at the opportunity to showcase one of our locations to students that, perhaps, will one day hopefully be part of our industry in Ohio." With ever increasing operations in Ohio, Ascent Resources is the most active producer in Ohio and is the number one producer of natural gas in the state. "It takes a team of people working together towards a

common goal to pull a tour of this scope off," said Mike Chadsey with the Ohio Oil and Gas Association. "Our ongoing goal is to continue to bring awareness and excitement around our industry and today's tour with the school was part of the objective and we could not have done that without our partners at Ascent and the Lt. Governor's office." Once on the pad, the students put on their safety gear and were split into two groups to explore the operations. The first group climbed up the rig stairs to learn about how a well is drilled and the various jobs available with a natural gas producer, while the second group walked around the pad location to learn about the various supplies, contractors and vendors that it takes to put a well into production. Then the two groups switched. During the tours, the students asked a wide array of questions ranging from technical aspects of the operation, different career opportunities, and steps they need to take to get there. Many expressed an interest to pursue a career in the industry to the several of the rig crew members on location.

CADIZ – Last Tuesday evening the Harrison Hills Board of Education (HHBOE) held a special meeting and awarded the auction contract to David Jones and Kaufman Auctions of Sugarcreek, two companies that will be working together for the auctioning of school items within the buildings in Scio, Hopedale and Cadiz, according to Superintendent Dana Snider. She said there is to be an online auction and a live

auction with Kaufman being more familiar with the online side. Snider said the former schools in those three villages would be demolished with the gyms and other buildings going possibly up for auction at a later date. Snider said the auction is planned for late June but no date had been set. There also has been no official decision on whether those villages will act on taking those gymnasiums for themselves, though, they have all talked openly of them in past meetings. Cadiz has shown interest in the Westgate building for sometime

Lincoln Electric’s training institute in Cleveland to better understand how the machine operates. “The aim of this acquisition is to be able to teach robotic welding, as well as the programming,” said Myers. “We want to expose today’s students to the latest technologies that are out there in our manufacturing environments. We are teaching students to write the code and operate the machine,” he said. Frank Polen, director of curriculum, instruction, and adult education at BCC, believes the technology is a direct line to local employers. “Humanly, you can sometimes weld as fast as what this will do. What you can’t keep up with is the manpower, in terms of putting the steel in place or rotating the steel, because that causes you to stop welding, reload the steel, the pipe, or

now but nothing has been discussed lately. And even though much of the work at the new school has been completed Snider said there is still much work to be done. She said one gymnasium is completed but the other one still has flooring to finish up. Snider said on May 28 the administrative offices should be moving in but that is the only place that could be occupied. She also said the high school side of the new school is more completed but work to the elementary portion is still ongoing. Hopedale Mayor Mike

Robotic welder in operation at Buckeye Career Center NEW PHILADELPHIA – A piece of equipment being used to expand manufacturing training in the Tuscarawas Valley is now operational at Buckeye Career Center. A $109,623 Lincoln Electric robotic welder now sits in the Welding lab at BCC. It was acquired in part by a grant that was awarded to the Multi-County Advanced Manufacturing Corridor (MCAMC) workgroup, in addition to local contributions. The grant was made possible by the Ohio Mid-Eastern Governments Association and the Governor’s Office of Appalachia. The second round of funding will allow BCC to purchase a new CNC plasma cutting system and a Fanuc Fenceless Robot Trainer, with Kent State University at Tuscarawas purchasing other necessary training devices. The robotic welder allows high school Welding instructors Randall Patrick and Brian Myers to teach students how to use the growing technique. A full-time Adult Education Welding program will begin during the 2019-2020 school year. “About one-third of area companies are using these,” said Patrick. He expects more companies to begin using the technology, as well, as employers become more efficient. The instructors recently attended a three-day training at

The boy asked for a hickory stick to take home. She said what a lesson it would be if he knew what the hickory stick was for, she said laughing again.

In loving memory of Hilda Norris 11-2-1942 5-14-2008 Come with Me The Lord saw you getting tires and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around you and whispered “Come with Me”. With tearful eyes, we watched you suffer and saw you fade away, although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A  golden heart stopped beating, a beautiful smile at rest, God broke our hearts to prove He only takes the best. It’s lonesome here without you, we miss you so each day, our lives aren’t the same since you went away.When days are sad and lonely, and everything goes wrong, we seem to hear you whisper, “Cheer up and carry on.” Each time we see your picture, you seem to smile and say, “Don’t cry, I’m in God’s keeping, we’ll meet again someday.” Sadly missed by husband Verne, sons: Steve, Jim, daughter-in-law Sarah, grandson Jimmy (5:11) ------------------------------

Dan Milleson to receive Austin C. Furbee Award ST. CLAIRSVILLE - Ohio University Eastern Campus has chosen Dan Milleson as the 2019 Austin C. Furbee Award honoree, in recognition of his dedication and contribution to Ohio University and the community. An award dinner will be held in his honor on Thursday, May 23, at 7pm at Belmont Hills Country Club in St. Clairsville. A reception will precede the award dinner at 6:30pm. Dan Milleson grew up in Piedmont, Ohio surrounded by family. After the Harrison County consolidation of schools, Dan attended Harrison Central High. While at Harrison Central, Dan was involved heavily in athletics, which played a big role in his overall development, and also helped to form the foundation of many deep friendships. In 2007, Dan arrived at Ohio University Eastern where he would pursue a business degree and play basketball under the tutelage of his mentor and high school coach Donnie Madzia. He studied at the Eastern Campus for three years before relocating to the Athens Campus at the beginning of his senior year. Dan completed the academic requirements and earned a bachelor’s of science degree in business administration in 2011. In 2013, he would finance the purchase of Milleson Insurance Agency, which had been in his family for three generations. Since then, Milleson Insurance Agency has added ten full-time employees and opened new offices in Belmont and Jefferson County.

In 2015, Dan and a group of his peers formed a political action committee to fight for a ballot issue to build a new $53M PK12 Harrison Central school. After months of knocking on doors, raising money, and carrying a positive message of change, the issue passed on November 3, 2015. Dan’s nieces, Kendall and Kinsey Hayes, will walk into their brand new school for the first time this August, with 1,500 fellow Husky students. Following this experience, Dan founded the Harrison Central Alumni Association with the same group that fought for the school, and in 2017 chose to run for State Representative in Ohio’s 95th District. After a long and grueling campaign that at one point saw him visit 70 towns in 36 days, he was defeated, but not deterred from trying to positively impact our local community. In 2018, Dan decided to give back to the Eastern Campus by starting a scholarship endowment in the name of his grandfather, R. Kinsey Milleson. The R. Kinsey Milleson Public Service Scholarship provides awards to students who are pursuing a bachelor’s degree in applied management or political science and meet other established criteria. Dan credits everything he’s ever been able to accomplish to his parents, Rich and Lori Milleson, his family, his work family, and the friends and mentors who have supported him along the way. According to Eastern Campus Dean Bob Klein, “Dan has been a champion on our community

foundation board for the last several years and played a significant role in the success of our 60th Anniversary Campaign and Gala. His commitment to the Eastern Campus and the community has been exemplified by his dedication to Harrison County Schools, growing the family business, running for political office and the establishing the R. Kinsey Milleson Public Service Scholarship. His selection for the Austin C. Furbee Award is a welldeserved recognition of his many contributions to Ohio University, the community, and the region.” Austin C. Furbee, for whom the award is named, played a key role in the formation of the Ohio University Eastern Campus. While serving as a Belmont County Commissioner, Furbee realized that there were limited opportunities for higher education in the Ohio Valley. As a result, he became instrumental in the commission’s acquisition of the former Belmont County Experimental Station farmland, which was to become a regional campus of Ohio University. Furbee’s involvement with Ohio University grew throughout the years. He was a long-time member of the Ohio University Eastern Regional Coordinating Council, and also presided as chairman of the council when Shannon Hall, the first building on the St. Clairsville campus, was dedicated in 1967. As a result of Furbee’s efforts, the Eastern Campus has continued to grow, and serve the needs of the community. Ohio University’s Eastern Campus stands as a tribute to his vision, determination and hard work. The Austin C. Furbee award was first given in 1981 after Furbee’s wife, Gladys, established an endowed fund in memory of her husband. The award is given annually to recognize an individual who has shown dedication, commitment and service to Ohio University and to the community.
