Library to expand offerings into Scio building “Last year, over 15,000 individuals attended library programs at our libraries. Using this facility to expand library programming while making it available for community organizations and activities is a way of preserving the intent of Thomas and Harry Barr when he provided funds to maintain school libraries in the area.” — Sandi Thompson SCIO — Libraries are places where people come together and are becoming community spaces now more than ever. It is with the focus on dedication to community and education that the Puskarich Board of

Trustees met to discuss being able to offer more programming through utilizing the Barr Memorial facility in Scio.

Sandi Thompson, Library Director, feels libraries are one of the few indoor

spaces in society that are accessible and open to everyone. “Last year, over 15,000 individuals attended library programs at our libraries. Using this facility to expand library programming while making it available for community organizations and activities is a way of preserving the intent of Thomas and Harry Barr when he provided funds to maintain school libraries in the area.”

The library looks to the Scio Village, Scio Fire Department, and non-profit agencies in the area to assist in optimizing the use of the building.

The library has always provided resources to improve mental fitness, and now looks to assist with physical fitness as well. The library has offered yoga and other classes at its current facilities earlier this year and ran into space limitations due to overwhelming response. The library sees this as a natural fit to make the Barr Memorial Multipurpose Building available to walkers, offer yoga story times, chair based exercise, family movie nights, walking book clubs, and

OBITUARIES Anette Y. Vale

Deersville, Ohio

CADIZ – Director of the Emergency Management Agency for Harrison County Eric Wilson stated at Wednesday morning’s quarterly meeting of the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) their headquarters was 98.5 percent complete. That site, which sits next to the Harrison County Home has been cleared to hold 25 people, according to Wilson.

He told the gathering, which was held in the cafeteria of the Harrison Community Hospital (HCH) they just don’t have the room at their current location, the government center, where it holds multiple agencies.

“And quite frankly, it’s a nice building but there’s space limitations,” Wilson explained.

“We’ve got two small offices, we do not have an emergency operation center [and] we’ve got some things that are hampering us there.” He continued to give a review of the process that brought them to the situation it is today.

Wilson stated that a research of commercial real estate led him to figures reaching upward of $1.5 million as a starting price. He explained that “one of the commissioners” recommended a modular home that had been abandoned for approximately 10 years. The home was where the caretakers used to live but has now been repurposed to fit the EMA personnel.

“We’ve got new carpet down, we’ve got new vinyl, we’ve had paint done,” Wilson said adding that the majority of equipment and generators are in place, as well. Concerning the radio situation, antennas are in place with only Frontier Communications left to meet their obligations.

“That area didn’t really have a good existing backbone for Ethernet so, as a matter of fact the County Home is on DSL if that tells you anything about that area,” he told the audience, which included personnel from HCH, Williams Energy, Encino Energy, Red Cross and other agencies from around Harrison County.

“I’ve been working diligently with Frontier now for about six months to try and get the infrastructure in place for that and they came out last Thursday…but we are working towards that,” Wilson stated.

He then announced a date given to him by Frontier “no later than June 14 for the project to be complete.”

He said he felt optimistic that by the time the next LEPC meeting is held in August that the EMA would be headquartered in their new office next to the County Home. He said training rooms with lots of office space will be at the ready adding how excited he was to be able to move into the new place.

Wilson said that even though the fire marshal has rated the

New store opens on Cadiz square

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributor

CADIZ — An empty store front on the square has recently come alive with a new sign and merchandise. Point Zero will unlock its doors on Saturday, June 1.

Across the street from the courthouse, owner John Shook has been busy stocking the shelves with quality items sold

close to wholesale price. Shoppers can expect the merchandise to be new and different with each visit.

The store has things for men, women and children with everything from collectibles to clothing to toys.

Point Zero is a new addition perfect for gifts and pleasure shopping. The store’s name carries meaning, too. Shook came up with the name from his experience as a fire and EMS

volunteer. “Point Zero” is a term used for the center of action.

With the store located in the heart of Cadiz and the merchandise being allencompassing, the name sums it up well. Shook said he has always been intrigued with small shops and the idea that he could run one. “I like the idea of being in the community,” said Shook, “small business is what the community is built on.”

Boss Bison Ranch prepares for Baby Bison Days Charity Pow Wow

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributor

CADIZ — The sixth annual Baby Bison Days Charity Pow Wow is fast approaching and will be held on June 15 and 16 at the ranch located 45701 Unionvale Rd, Cadiz, Ohio.

Hosted by Boss Bison Ranch, the event brings vendors local and abroad, some traveling as far as South Dakota to attend. The ranch supports Harcatus, a tri-county community action organization that serves Harrison, Carroll, and Tuscarawas counties. The ranch collects money year-round for the organization, Baby Bison Days being the ranch’s largest drive—last year alone Boss Bison gave an estimated $20,000-$30,000 dollars’ worth of food donations from their two-day event. Their

goal is to raise awareness of the need for food year-round in the tri-state area as they have committed to providing meat through FHFH (Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry). The ranch emphasizes their support of the community and those who give their time to better it, like police officers, fire fighters, EMTs, and so many others.

Attendees can expect the “grand entry”, great food and a lively pow wow that has something for everybody. The grand entry, takes place at noon on both days, and honors our nation’s past and present soldiers, and our first responders. Attendees will not be disappointed with Dan Kovacs’ snow cones, a sell-out last year and Desperato Dogs’ renowned hotdogs and homemade sauces.

There will even be Native

American fry bread for attendees to enjoy a taste of the past. Native crafts and demonstrations will make the ranch come alive as the Red Bird Singers and MacKenze River ring in the Pow Wow on drums with Aaron Stevens as the MC and Mike Lehnortt as the arena director.

Be sure to come see Head Veteran Shawn Reilly, Head Man Michael Edwards, Junior Head Man Brock Smith, Head Lady Leehya Warner and Junior Head Lady Kayla Cwalina all participate in the Pow Wow on June 15 and 16. Children are encouraged to participate in the candy dance, a community favorite.

Vice President of the event, Chad Hall, says it is all hands on deck back at the ranch as they prepare for the festivities.

SCIO – The Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) came through with some big news for the village of Scio when it was announced at their last council meeting that they would get the grant they’d been hoping for.

Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh made the announcement, which was already stated in writing in their packets council receives before each meeting.

“Congratulations,” Tubaugh told members of council and said this was “step one and we’re actually looking very good right now,” he said referring to their Phase II water line capital improvement project.

“The ARC (Appalachian Regional Commission) portion is the next step in receiving additional funding for this project,” he wrote in his biweekly report. He said if the ARC grant comes through then Scio’s cost would greatly be cut down.

“If that one comes through our cost is roughly less than 5 percent of the entire project,” he

EMA

From PG | 1 new place for 25 people he said the office of EMA would be “position-driven,” adding that they would be the right size for Harrison County.

Wilson opened up the meeting acknowledging the good representation of the various agencies in the county. He said the LEPC was in its second year of a four-year cycle of required exercises and noted how instrumental safety coordinators, Scio Fire

explained. “That’s a huge step.”

As he was thanked by Mayor Michelle Carpenter Tubaugh said it was a team effort with Clerk Treasurer Trish Copeland’s help as well as Council member Erin Thompson’s efforts. He also mentioned Quicksall (& Associates) and Income Tax Administrator Janeen Scott as well.

“I think it was a really good team effort there to get it done,” Tubaugh said.

In a memo sent from Director Linda Bailiff of OPWC to Tubaugh, it states “Approved applications will be advanced to processing for the project agreements scheduled to be released on or about July 1.” The memo also refers to a starting date of construction “by June 2019,” as it refers to agreements pending “all matching funding sources,” as well.

In another item included in Tubaugh’s report was the growing problem of “grass, trash and cars.”

“I see it every day…it’s getting ridiculous,” Tubaugh told council. He said it was on Main Street and named the others like Walnut, High and East College Streets. He asked what was needed in order to just go in and

Chief, Roger Bethel and Tim McNeil were in working with Williams Energy.

Also, Wilson noted the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC) money that they receive, which aids them in delivering those funds back into the local community in the form of training and equipment purchases. Some of that equipment purchased went into the Emergency Response Trailer, which he also noted is according to scale as in, what only is needed that fits the county.

cut people’s grass?

“They’re violating the ordinance,” he said. Village Solicitor Jack Felgenhauer reminded him that what has already been discussed and needed to do was to take photographs of the unkempt properties, then letters need to be sent from council warning the owners what needs to be done.

“Send a letter to these people telling them to get it done or, it’s going to be done (by the village) then you assess it to their taxes,” Felgenhauer explained. He said junk cars are another issue and another type of involvement.

“There’s a whole list of stuff that you go through,” he said referring to registration, vehicles operational versus not, for example. He called abandoned vehicles a different procedure versus a junk motor vehicle, which is where the discussion had led to.

“It’s really fact driven a lot of it, what are the facts?” he asked rhetorically. He said as far as exploring options regarding “legal advice” he told council it would be best not discussing it in front of the media, to which Mayor Carpenter agreed.

He acknowledged the county does not have a hazardous material team, which leaves them reacting defensively while calling in that type of team from the outside.

“Mostly what we’re doing is defensive operations, it’s HAZMAT operations,” he explained. “We’ve got a few technicians here and there spread out among the county but nothing organized. So what we’re looking at is containing the incident until a trained team can get here…”

Encino Energy donates check for Sally Buffalo Park playground

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Encino Energy (formerly Chesapeake) has donated a check in the amount of $25,000 for Sally Buffalo Park’s new playground to go in next to the shed that is just a short distance preceding the existing playground along the large lake.

Harrison County Commissioner Paul Coffland said the existing one is not in a good state or up to standards and called it, “unsafe.” Director of External Affairs for Encino, Jackie Stewart, was there to present and lineup with the small gathering of area officials for a photo of the symbolic passing of the check, which included Kim Davia and Ashley Sefsick, both park board members.

“This is the first project since the acquisition (of Chesapeake),” Stewart said proudly and explained how they wanted to be long-term investors in the community “with a public-private

partnership.”

Coffland approached Encino some time ago notifying them of the village’s wishes and Stewart replied positively.

“Great, how can we help,” she said adding that she then went to her superiors and cleared it because it met their criteria on how they would like to participate and get involved within the local community.

“This is how we can build a sustainable community together,” Stewart said. “We’re taking resources out of the ground and putting them right back on top.” Coffland said the playground will be handicap approved with a climbing wall, a slide and age sections within the playground.

Coffland stated he was surprised when Encino agreed to come forward but in an obvious good way.

“Between Encino and the tourism council this was huge,” he said. There are also plans to add onto the playground in the future, he added.

“We’ve had $10 donations to $100,000 and Representative

(Andy) Thompson-R (formerly of the 95th District)…helped secure funding,” Coffland explained. “So many different entities collaborating you don’t see it happen often.”

He said the park board sent in the application for funding and is being administered through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR).

Stewart said a ribbon cutting on the playground is scheduled to take place on June 21.

Coffland said weather has delayed the actual laying of the cement but said Bluegrass Recreation would be coming out this coming week to begin.

Coffland said Bluegrass assessed the existing playground and said repairing it would be “cost prohibitive.”

The breakdown so far provided

by Cadiz Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski lists: $109,612 for inclusive kid builder play structure, $34,,614 for equipment installation, $17,435 for 63x74 foot concrete pad, $50,349 for no-fault rubber poured in place (covering concrete) and $7,196 for freight and shipping.

and voted to move forward into an agreement with Harrison Hills City School District for the purchase of the building for $1.

This opportunity became available to the Library Board only after Harrison Hills had explored other options for the building. They wanted the building to remain a

community asset and approached the Library Board.

Approval will still be needed by the Harrison Hills Board of Education to formalize the agreement.

The library shares that it will take time to launch this project. Public sessions will be held to gather input from local residents to give direction for activities and programs.

CADIZ – Photographs cannot do it justice for the Spirit of America Wall, ushered into Harrison County last Thursday by the Cadiz Legion Riders escort, sits 100 feet long when fully constructed with over 200 images filling it end to end.

The Wall, which was taken down late Sunday and packed up in time for the Cadiz Memorial parade Monday morning, could have been shown to 100 more people if it were still set up, President of the Spirit of America Wall Ron Smith said as he was driving down E. Market Street during the parade.

Two things inspired the Spirit of America Wall; one was a question someone asked years ago of why there was no wall to honor veterans of all wars. Smith and his partner, Patricia Sexton then began to research some 3,000 images in 2015 to construct such a wall, which covers years 1775 to the War on Terrorism of today.

Smith said the wall sits 92 inches tall, which is also a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based out of Sandusky.

Photographs were displayed on a long, white-clothed table and for sale, which the organization keeps a portion of the proceeds to cover costs. The rest goes to the artist, Ray Simon of Canfield who painted all the images before they were photographed and blown up to current size. Smith

said the Wall took more than two years to make.

Smith said since they have no sponsors at this time they charge a fee to a host, in this case the Cadiz American Legion Riders and those costs pay for their fuel, insurance and liability.

The Wall has been on display in part since 2015 when the first 40 feet was finalized and then since 2017 when it was completed in full. “It’s been a work in progress,” noted Ron, “and we are happy to have it up to date.”

The full color artwork captures the intensity of wartime and the expressions of veterans fighting alongside each other through the ages. The Wall can be broken down into 10-foot increments, allowing it to be displayed in part or in full inside or outside.

The other reason the Spirit of America Wall became possible was born out of a sad influence when Sexton’s husband was killed during a fire mission in Quang Tri Province on March 15, 1971.

Sexton joined the Rolling Thunder chapter back in 1999 after two veterans started it to remind the government of the MIA/KIA situation years ago.

The reminder was the massive sound of motorcycle engines firing up, hence, Rolling Thunder. She joined because she was looking for purpose but, she was also told by a doctor she was suffering from a form of PTSD. “You feel like something’s not right,” she reflected. “I needed to find my own niche.” Just over her shoulder stood the image of a

Vietnam soldier crouched down with another in the fields of Vietnam. The Veteran is wearing dark rimmed glasses and is the facial image of her late husband, which was no accident. She wanted to honor him in a special way and after surrounding that image with 100 feet of American history, it’s clear that she has.

The part Cherokee woman also noted the American Indian that’s portrayed at the beginning of the Wall, as well as the irony of it considering how the Native Americans were treated. She also stated there has been Cherokee blood represented in every American war and she is passionate about what the U.S. stands for, which she cited freedom of religion and speech, as two examples.

“If people didn’t step up and fight we would have the freedom…we have,” she said.

The Legion has been working on getting the Wall to Harrison County for over a year, and members were thrilled to see it arrive last Friday. The Legion Riders’ Interim Director Scott Merkins rallied over 100 bikes to escort the truck carrying the Wall. The oldest rider was a 91year-old WWII veteran. Ron, Patricia and Scott were overwhelmed with the support of the community as almost 500 people had paid their respects before the first showcase day was through. Ron and Patricia said the community made it one of the most patriotic events they had done.

Their next engagement is in Belle Valley on June 8.

The Spirit of America Wall was displayed at the Harrison County Fairgrounds over the Memorial Day weekend. The wall covers from the year 1775 to today’s War on Terrorism. The wall sits 92 inches tall and took over two years to create.

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy How was your Memorial Day weekend? We went through some hot hours and a few rainy ones but I would say that it was a weekend to be proud of.

It was nice to see in the Eastern District baseball awards that Buckeye Local High School had a player on the Division III first team, Alan Burkett of Smithfield. He is a sophomore and had been an avid church member at the Christian Church, where we attend for years. It was nice seeing him grow up.

Shayne Christian, Smithfield, a senior, made the second team; and Fred Hertler and Owen Long made honorable mention. Owen is from Smithfield and has been a dedicated 4-H member since he was 8-years-old. He received many grand or reserve champion awards for his pen of three market chickens and attends the Meadowbrook Church in Rayland.

Edison High School had four on the first team in Division III: Andrew Kinney and Anthony Sinicropi, both seniors; George Ash and Alec McBane, juniors. Sinicropi was player of the year. Congrats to two of my favorite schools.

There were many other players from schools in the district who did very well but these are two of the schools that I am most familiar.

Norma McHugh, my sister-inlaw, sent me a Facebook hint on keeping the mosquitos and other bugs away at a campfire.

The secret is to add sage or rosemary to the campfire. This is done by wrapping the chosen herb in foil, wet it and poke holes in the package. Put it in the coals and it will smoke and keep the bothersome bugs away.

National chocolate ice cream day actually speaks for itself.

Feel free to dig into a pint of Ben and Jerry’s or a waffle cone on this day.

Until next week: 1) People glow differently when they are loved right and treated properly.

2) Smile – it is the key that fits the lock of everybody’s heart. 3) Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds. 4) Always trust your instincts, they are messages from your soul. 5) If you ever meet someone who makes your life flow easier and makes you laugh a lot, keep them, that’s all you need. 6) It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.

May you have health, wealth and wisdom this week and love, joy and happiness too! Take it easy! God bless.

Look at the Past A look back at the oil boom in Scio

Annette Y. Vale Annette Y. Vale, 59, of Deersville, Ohio, died Sunday, May 26, at Southeastern Ohio Regional Medical Center in Cambridge. She was born Oct. 7, 1959 in Dennison, Ohio, a daughter of Willard A. and Helen G. Persons Smith of Moorefield.

Annette was a homemaker. She enjoyed babysitting her grandchildren, gardening, baking, and volunteering in the school and Scio - A Boom Oil Town 1899 - “As news spread of the oil boom, passenger trains began to drop strangers off at Scio. They came by twos and threes, then by tens and twenties, then by hundreds. Long freight training of engines and boilers, derrick material and all sorts of oil well supplies were side tracked there. Saloon and gambling out-fits invaded the little town, and the law abiding citizens could not put them out. Oil derricks were set up everywhere, in front yards, in backyards, in the lot by the church. Wherever space could be leased or gotten, up went a derrick and puff-puff went the engine drilling for oil.”

From the Nickel Magazine of August 1899.

MAYOR’S CORNER Hello!

As I write this, we have just celebrated another Memorial Day weekend. I would like to convey appreciation from myself and the entire Village to several organizations and individuals.

I’m sure everyone noticed the flags on the light posts in the uptown area. The Boy Scout Troop 269 and their leaders do this each year. The flags, along with the street lights being lit through the day were a fitting tribute to our veterans, deceased and living, plus the men and women currently serving our country.

A couple of important items to not forget are the Village of Cadiz Clean-up day on June 8 at Harrison County Garage in conjunction with the HarrisonCarroll-Columbiana Solid Waste District. Hours will be 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. Various items will be collected, including tires, scrap metal, large appliances (no refrigerators, or anything with freon), and household items.

More details are in the local newspaper.

The second item for your calendar is the annual Village of Cadiz Yard Sale taking place on June 7 and 8. This is always a

nice event for everyone, so get out and enjoy the sales, and possibly make a little profit as well!

Sally Buffalo Park is in full swing for summer. Camping and fishing are highlighted, and please try to get out to attend the 9th annual Sean Carney’s Blues for a Cure concert. Many local businesses are sponsoring this event, and it will be held on June 29, beginning at 4 p.m.

This is a free concert, benefiting the Harrison Community Hospital Foundation Cancer Awareness and Education Fund, and the Harrison County Cancer Crusaders. This is always a great evening and held for a good cause. Food, water and soda will be available for purchase; please bring your own lawn chairs and blankets.

Fireworks display at Sally Buffalo Park will also be on Saturday, June 29 starting at 10 p.m. The Harrison County Fair is on tap as well, running through the entire weekend, there will be a multitude of activities happening to keep everyone entertained.

The new playground equipment for Sally Buffalo Park has been ordered. This will make a nice addition for the children

by Cadiz Mayor, Ken Zitko and parents who use our beautiful park. This $200,000 project is being financed by a $100,000 grant from the State of Ohio and through generous donations from the Village of Cadiz, Sally Buffalo Park board, Encino Energy and many private donations from residents.

County Commissioner Paul Coffland has been very helpful in getting this entire project off the ground and we thank him for all his efforts.

Chief McCann and the Cadiz Police department would like to remind citizens now that school is out, they are anticipating more traffic on Village streets, and especially in and around Sally Buffalo Park. Please use extra caution and obey the speed limits especially with the blues concert, fireworks and county fair all occurring the same weekend.

Street superintendent Ludwig and his crew report that yard debris is again being picked up at curbside on a daily basis. In addition to all of their daily duties, they have also been busy helping get the new playground site at the Park ready, painting uptown parking spaces, and hauling fill to Liming Drive to

get the drainage problem corrected.

The Village is enforcing the ordinances on tall grass and the failure of property owners to keep their grass cut. The ordinance states that grass cannot be longer than 9 inches.

We will give the property owner a notice to cut the grass within 14 days; if it is not cut, the Village street department will cut it, and the property owner will be charged for labor and use of equipment plus a $200 fine.

All subsequent cuttings do not need 14 day notice. Please help the Village look nice by keeping your property in good condition.

Before closing, I would like to extend utmost congratulations to all our 2019 graduates. This is a special year for all of our young men and women, especially so since they will be the last graduating class from Harrison Hills school in Cadiz.

Good luck to all of you who worked so hard to get to this day, and best wishes for your futures!

2019 Harrison Central graduates are 122 strong

By ED BANKS NH Staff Writer

CADIZ - From baccalaureate on Thursday night to Friday night’s graduation ceremonies, the two ceremonial events were a much-anticipated happening for the 122 2019 graduates of Harrison Central High School.

The Friday night gathering saw the normal packed house of family, friends and supporters on hand to witness the class receive their diplomas.

The 2019 seniors will be the final graduating class to arrive and leave the Stevenson Center to “Pomp and Circumstance,” and the 2020 class will be the first to grace the new auditorium at the new high school.

Adding a touch of nostalgia to the final ceremonies in the Stephenson Center, was an invitation to four of Harrison Hills District’s former superintendents.

Superintendents present and overlooking the ceremonies with Dana Snider were Dale Edwards, Sam Lucas, Jim Drexler and Dr. George Ash. Following the processional and the Pledge of Allegiance which was led by senior Sydney Starr, Harrison High School

Principal Ken Parker opened the ceremonies and introduced Harrison Hills Superintendent Dana Snider. Snider told the seniors, “Life is like a book, the readings and pictures by the Class of 2019, will be coauthored by parents and teachers.” “Change is inevitable, turn the page and think positively. What you write is possible, turn your pages.”

2019 Class salutatorian George Novotny stated, “Reflecting on the things that I have learned teachers, peers and my parents got me to this podium.” “Role models are pushed by their peers.” Novotny went on to speak of his great grandparents who migrated from Italy and took the opportunity to set goals and follow them. There were tons of work required, and their work ethic set the pattern for all of them.

Class valedictorian Payton Taylor spoke of how it was time to become adults. “I dreamed of this night since I was a kid,” Taylor said. “Through first grade to junior high and through junior high to senior year, I wanted be right here.

College is a great opportunity!

College will open your eyes.

Always challenge, don’t lose the drive to succeed!”

Music for the graduation ceremonies was by the Harrison Select Choir under the direction of Mrs. Angela Ripley and the Harrison Central Symphonic Band under the direction of Mr. Eric Zalenski.

The attendees were asked to join in the singing of the Alma Mater with the select Choir.

The Harrison fight song followed.

There were comments from Assistant Principal Todd Dunlap. Dunlap reflected how he spoke to his class, which was the last Cadiz High School class, and now he speaks to the final ceremonies in the Stephenson Center. Class President Madison Young was called upon to read the role of the graduating seniors, as their diplomas were presented. The class officers of the 2019 graduating Huskies were: Madison Young-President, Sydney-Starr-Vice President, Tiara Logsdon-Secretary and Payton Taylor Treasurer. The Harrison Central School Board Members are: Mrs. Deborah Kenny-President, Mr. Melvin Allen-Vice President, Mr. Phillip Madiza-Board Member, Mrs. Tracy Mattern-Board Member and Mr. D J WatsonBoard Member.

Huskies place at District II meet at West Holmes Following competition at the District II meet held at West Holmes High School on May 16 and 18 , the top four places in each event would advance to the following week’s regional meet. On the first day at districts, the girls 4x800 meter team placed fourth , the boys 4x800 team was fourth

Get your yard to look better in less time It’s no secret that your home’s exterior gets the spotlight during the summer. Once the weather warms up, neighborhoods fill with the sounds of yardwork. Expertly manicured grass and enviable curb appeal require maintenance and the right equipment.

If “old reliable” isn’t cutting the lawn as well as it used to and you’re searching for a new mower, there are many makes and models to consider.

One type you may be less familiar with is the zero-turn mower, which offers superior maneuverability and can get yard work done faster than a standard walk-behind mower.

“A high-quality zero-turn mower means getting back to relaxing in your free time faster,” says Adam Mullet, vice president of sales and new products at Hustler Turf Equipment, a leading brand of outdoor power equipment, and the originator

of the zero-turn mower.

When shopping around, consider the following tips and insights: • Don’t Shop With Your Wallet As with any home appliance purchase, this is a big decision.

You’ll want something that can withstand the test of time and is backed by warranty.

Keep in mind engine size and horsepower. Powerful engines cut grass faster and last longer, but also cost more.

Financing options offered by manufacturers can help you avoid compromising.

• Size Matters A larger deck speeds up mowing and is ideal for big properties with wide open areas of grass.

The wider the cutting deck, the more grass cut with each pass. If you need to maneuver through tight spaces or have a small yard, consider a machine with a condensed, more easilycontrolled mowing deck.

Zero-turn mowers made for residential use are typically much smaller than the average ride-on mower. For a compact option at a great value, consider the DASH by Hustler Turf. Built to the brand’s high standards, it has a patented automatic park brake, foot-operated deck lift and the ability to fit through most gates, making it a good choice for front and backyard mowing. Available in two welded, fabricated steel deck sizes – 34-inch or 42inch – with a heavy-duty 1x2 fully tubular frame, it’s small enough for easy garage storage.

For bigger yards and tougher terrains, consider options like Hustler Turf ’s residential FasTrak. Boasting speeds up to 8 MPH, it features a removable floor plan for easy maintenance, a fully welded, tubular frame available in sizes up to 60 inches, and 22-inch large drive tires. A 20-inch high-back seat

with full mechanical suspension shields riders from bumps, and cushioning takes pressure off the tailbone and lower back.

• Mow in Comfort You’ll use this machine regularly for years to come, so prioritize comfort. Remember, the openconcept of a zero-turn allows you to get on and off easily. Be sure to sit on each mower and look at the seats and support offered.

• Shop Local Consider visiting locallyowned and operated lawn care centers, where dealers are deeply familiar with product lines, region-specific lawn care needs and ready to answer questions about mower performance and maintenance.

More information on zero-turn mowers can be found at hustlerturf.com.

When buying a mower, prioritize makes and models offering efficiency and comfort that meet your lawn care needs.

Zero-turn mowers can help you get yard work done faster.

Preparing fuel safely and e ciently ahead of time From landscaping, to tending the lawn and garden to getting your family’s recreational equipment prepped for warm weather, the common denominator is that these activities require fuel to get going.

Daniel Marshall, vice president

of marketing and business development with Scepter, a manufacturer of North American-made fuel containers says, “Gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel all link people to projects and activities outside the home. It’s important to

prepare and use fuel containers both safely and smartly.”

Here are some things to keep in mind according to Marshall: Getting Started There’s nothing more annoying than preparing to cut the lawn and finding there’s no gas in the mower and your gas can is empty. If you happen to make this discovery when prepping for a storm or other emergency, this situation goes from irritating to distressing. Monitor your at-home fuel supply so you’re never caught empty-handed.

When taking inventory of supplies, consider the age of your fuel. Safely discard older fuel that’s been sitting unused for many months, as gas components can deteriorate over time. You can better track this by labeling containers.

Remember, the fuel you used for winter chores was probably a unique “winter mix” blend.

For warm weather chores, get a new “summer mix.” Changing

Tips to outsmart bugs in your home this season What is a huge worry of many households? Bugs. Insects are resilient, strategic and way smarter than you may realize.

But before dealing with insect invasions, it’s helpful to understand what you’re up against. These facts can help you better understand invaders: • Cockroaches have the capacity to memorize and learn -- and they may just use those smarts to remember the layout and contents of your kitchen! But even without their heads, cockroaches are fairly formidable -- decapitated, they can survive for weeks.

• Once an ant knows where food is located, it’ll leave a scented trail to guide others to the source. Ants help each other out in other ways, too. Certain ant species have been observed linking their bodies together to build ladders, chains, walls and even rafts that float in water.

• If your fly-swatting skills leave something to be desired, don’t feel bad. Flies can detect danger from all angles and can react four times faster than humans.

Ninety-three percent of respondents said that they’re

concerned with having bugs inside their home in a recent survey conducted by Zevo -- a maker of bug killer sprays that are safe for use around people and pets when used as directed.

Survey respondents also said they see more bugs in their homes as the weather warms.

In another recent survey, more than eighty-five percent of people expressed some level of safety concern with using traditional insecticide sprays inside the home.

According to experts, you don’t have to trade one worry (bugs) for another (traditional bug sprays). So how should you deal with creeping, crawling and stinging invaders? Take a fresh approach to home insect control that you can feel good about with these safe extermination tips: • Keep common entry points like doors, windows and garages closed. Need a cross-breeze?

• Seal cracks around window and door frames, which are both entry points and hiding spaces for bugs.

• Don’t stack firewood or scrap wood next to your house

-- bugs love these havens.

• Avoid leaving food around after meals. Make a habit of prompt clean-ups.

• For bugs you see, use a spray that doesn’t contain harsh chemicals, such as Zevo Instant Action Spray. Its active ingredients are essential oils that target nerve receptors active only in insects, so you (and your pets) don’t need to leave the room after spraying, as you would with traditional insecticide. Just spray on the roach, ant, fly, wasp or other pesky bug, and wipe up after use.

• For the bugs you don’t see, use chemical-free traps in areas heavily trafficked by bugs. Those from Zevo, which plug into outlets around the home, use multi-spectrum light technology and a body heat attractant that mimic nature’s most primal powers of attraction. Try to reduce competing light around the traps. Though they work 24/7, flying insects will find the traps especially enticing at night.

Bugs are smart, but with some new strategies, you can safely outsmart them.

fuel seasonally will mean better performance of equipment and help guarantee a fresh supply.

Easy Does It Proper fuel storage can help you complete chores quickly, safely and efficiently. The key is selecting containers that provide clean, fast and hassle-free pours, such as SmartControl fuel containers from Scepter.

Made of high-density polyethylene for rugged durability, these 1-, 2- and 5-gallon containers, available for gasoline, diesel and kerosene, feature an innovative spout design that eliminates spills. The user-controlled flow valve makes it easy to direct the amount of fuel being dispensed, and because the container stores with the spout on, hands stay clean.

Always be Safe To protect your household, replace old, rusty and leaking metal fuel containers with models boasting the latest safety

standards, including flame mitigation devices (FMDs), as well as child safety caps on the spout, as mandated by current law. Then, store containers in secure, dry locations away from heat sources, pets and children.

“Your best bet is to look at every safety feature when purchasing a new fuel container, ensuring it meets or exceeds industry standards and definitely has an FMD,” says Marshall.

Safe use of fuel is also essential.

Never use your fuel container around fire pits, burn piles, barbeques, the fireplace, fire embers or other sources of ignition. Gasoline should never be confused with lighter fluid.

One reason this is so dangerous, is that when you use gas or other fuels, heavy unseen vapors will surround you as you pour. If this happens near any type of fire or source of ignition, these vapors can explode, which will likely result in serious injury or worse to you or those around you.

Another thing to think about is storms. Keep the right fuel on hand for your outdoor power equipment. Fuel stations may be closed after a storm, so it’s important to protect your equipment by having the right fuel on hand. It is illegal to use any fuel with more than 10 percent ethanol in outdoor power equipment, and improper fueling may damage or destroy your equipment. Use the type of fuel recommended by your equipment manufacturer and store fuel in an approved container.

For more information, visit www.LookBeforeYouPump. com. Be smart and use fuel for equipment only.

This summer, be sure to fuel your household’s chores and recreational activities as safely, cleanly and efficiently as possible.

There are a lot of things out there to worry about, and your fuel should not be one of them.

MWCD unveils Phase 2 of Master Plan

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com NEW PHILADELPHIA – Earlier this month the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) gave a little review of their Phase 1 projects before unveiling their Master Plan Phase 2 for the board at their last meeting two weeks ago.

In addition to the upgraded $130 million the District will spend on Phase 1, the next phase will cost them an additional $65 million with several lavish renovations, such as the Tappan Marina and docks and camper pads in other lake areas.

Chief of Recreation Scott Barnhart and Chief Engineer Boris Slogar shared responsibilities each explaining various sections of both phases. Barnhart began with the fact that most of the District’s campground had been constructed between 1947 and 1966.

“And I think it’s important to note during that time, there really have been no major renovations up until the Master Plan,” Barnhart explained. He reminded the board that infrastructure and original buildings was the aim for the Master Plan and noted how long overdue the changes had been

coming.

He continued explaining two of their main revenue sources, which are camping and docking which have been targeted in both phases as projects.

“It’s important to note that from a sustainability standpoint our recreation operations are selffunded so, we can’t legally use assessment dollars to benefit and we’ve not received any tax dollars that go towards that,” he told the board. Barnhart went on to mention water and wastewater, electrical systems with restrooms and showers as being outdated and even inadequate regarding infrastructure needs.

Slogar started off the Phase 2 portion by telling the board they expect to return in July to ask the board for allocation of the $65 million. He said $45 million will go to parks and campground renovations “and some expansion.”

Slogar touched on Piedmont Marina improvements concerning their recreation improvements with $20 million requested for various other marina improvements, including some marinas they’ve purchased over the years for modernization. Other improvements would be geared towards sports courts and beach facilities as well.

Slogar said that even though the Master Plan will come to eventual completion there are going to be remaining projects on the “wish list.” Slogar emphasized though, they will not terminate Phase 2 in the middle of a project, or in a way where it gives the appearance that some project had not been completed.

“So, we’re keeping an eye on that as well,” he stated. When it came to marinas, Slogar said public input was considered and said they wanted to do it right. He said cost would be set once the budget has been finalized.

He said campground costs are approximately $27.5 million and “still the lion’s share.” He said $10.8 million are earmarked for amenities with infrastructure at $8.3 million and marinas at $7.1.

Rounding it off are facilities at approximately $6.6 million to be spent.

“So, looking at Phase 2 proposed projects this is going to be fluid and dynamic,” Slogar stated. He added that 72 renovated and 30 new sites are being targeted at Atwood Park; Charles Mill 25 and Pleasant Hill 132 sites. Still more are Leesville with 58 and Clendening 70 sites to be worked on or created. One new campground at Pleasant Hill is

Over 300 more new and renovated campground sites like this one at Pleasant Hill are expected in Phase 2 of MWCD’s Master Plan. The estimated budget was stated as $65 million on top of the $130 million being spent on Phase 1.

expected with six being renovated. When it came to restrooms, six prefabricated with one being at Atwood is included in the work.

Discussing Tappan again as they

have addressed the past two meetings, Slogar briefly touched on the structure and all the grand outer work to be done there.

“We see this as a way to not only serve folks on the water and our

constituents that are using our facilities but folks driving by, so there’s tremendous amounts of potential here,” Slogar explained referring to U.S. 250, which the marina sits directly parallel with.

Bowerston removes itself from alternate position for CDBG funds

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Wednesday, Office Administrator of the Harrison County Community Improvement Corporation (HCCIC) Jody Hennis read the required second public hearing notice regarding the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds that were announced two weeks ago at the Harrison County Planning Commission (HCPC) meeting.

Upon completion of Wednesday’s reading Hennis also announced that Mayor Milo Baker of Bowerston

informed Hennis they were withdrawing their place as runner-up to the four (German Township, Deersville Players, Harrisville VFC, Washington Township) for any possible funds at this time.

Since CDBG funds are now handed out every two years as opposed to each year, communities such as Bowerston would now have to wait another two years in hopes of obtaining those funds. The tipoff came when Hennis stated Bowerston “was” an alternate for the funds in hopes of paving Gordon Street but the amount was still to be determined.

“And there has been a change

to the alternate position,” Hennis stated then handed the rest of the announcement to Commissioner Paul Coffland who stated Baker and their treasurer had already informed him of their decision.

“They’re not sure that they could swing it this year if they were to become eligible and they didn’t want to hold the process up, so they will look towards the next round of funding in a couple of years,” Coffland explained.

At that HCPC meeting Mayor Baker appeared frustrated over the process for filing his request on behalf of Bowerston, but in the end their council had yet to

Harrison County’s Newest Physician Meet

meet to make a final decision or even send in an amount needed, which favored heavily in the HCPC’s decision. Baker was the lone dissenter when the board voted.

During a conversation between Commissioner Don Bethel and Hennis Wednesday, they revealed this new two-year cycle gives communities more time to get projects finished before the next funding cycle, “in case something happens.” Hennis said during the last cycle all projects had finished within the first year and called it a “good year.”

The four communities awarded are sharing $120,000 at differing amounts with $7,500 allotted for

Fair Housing and the final $22,500 going towards administration. When Bethel asked what some examples of Fair Housing would be, Hennis stated their office handles complaints renters may have or other complaints, which she later used ADA issues, as an example.

“We can’t solve the problems but we have the services or shall I say, the programs in place to tell them where they can go for help [and] we have materials that we print every year…” Hennis explained. “It’s like an outreach program…so they know what their rights are.”

Coffland said there is no new alternate taking Bowerston’s

place at this time.

In other items the commissioners approved a request for an actual decrease in appropriations, which came from the Director of the Board of Elections Ruby Foutz. The decrease was in the amount of $31,985.22 for “election expense.”

Another request also came from the Board of Elections in the amount of $550 for a new security monitor to replace one that is no longer working, according to Foutz as read by Coffland. The amount includes installation, the monitor itself and “various things needed for the installation.”

James Bond film actress, Hammer Film star to appear in Carrollton on June 25 CARROLLTON — Pastor Mark Statler has announced that the Church of Christ (Christian Disciples) of Carrollton, Ohio is sponsoring Bond film actress Martine Beswicke and Hammer Film star Veronica Carlson on Tuesday June 25. The famous actresses will be featured with a meet and greet, Q & A and autograph session held at Century Farms Barn, 1121 Canton Rd., Carrollton, Ohio 44615 (located behind Days Inn and Ponderosa Steakhouse) from 5-7 p.m. Admission and the program are free and open to the public, however, there is a nominal fee for autographs and photos of the girls.

The models/actresses have been friends of Pastor Mark for several years. Martine and Veronica both have recorded with Statler (along with friends Caroline Munro, Yvonne Monlaur, Suzanna Leigh and Pittsburgh's iconic Chiller Theater TV Host, Bill "Chilly Billy" Cardille), producing an entire music cd of solos/duets/readings entitled "Hammer Girls" with songs from the project written by Mark's younger brother Theron. The cover art for the cd project was painted by Veronica.

English actress and model Martine Beswicke is best known for her roles on two iconic Bond films from the 1960's. Beswicke played Zora the gypsy in "From Russia With Love" (1963) and the doomed spy Paula Caplan in "Thunderball" (1965). Martine shared the screen in both Bond films with Sean Connery who is credited with seven Bond films under his super secret agent belt.

Beswicke went on to appear in "One Million Years B.C." opposite Raquel Welch, with whom she also engaged in a cat fight. She then appeared in various Hammer Studio films, most notably "Prehistoric

Women" and "Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde", in which she played a titular villainess. She played Adelita in the wellregarded Spaghetti Western, "A Bullet for the General" (1966) opposite Klaus Kinski and Gian Maria Volonte'. Along with her film work Martine appeared on several TV shows including Hart to Hart, Fantasy Island, Mannix, The Six Million Dollar Man, Falcon Crest and many others. She was also one of 12 Bond Girl celebrity guests in an episode of the BBC's MasterChef.

Veronica Carlson, the striking, pale complexioned blonde English actress is best known as the female lead of several late 1960's British Hammer Studio films. These roles include as the hapless Maria being terrorized by fanged Christopher Lee in "Dracula Has Risen From the Grave" (1968), brutalized by the evil Peter Cushing in "Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed" (1969) and chased by monster David Prowse (before he was Darth Vader) in "Horror of Frankenstein" (1970). Miss Carlson is considered one of the "Queens" of Hammer Films and one of the very few actresses to have worked with both iconic British actors Sir Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Veronica has assured herself a place in British film history as one of the stunning women that graced the screen during Hammer's wonderful renaissance. She also appeared in several British TV shows such as The Saint with Roger Moore (pre James Bond days).

Along with her film and tv career, Veronica is an accomplished and brilliant writer and an amazing professional artist/painter with paintings of many of her costars and many commissioned works.

Pastor Mark cordially invites you to come and meet these

beautiful, intelligent, down to earth, sweet and spiritual ladies.

Because of Mark's connections to the music and film industry and the friendships he has made with many singers and actors over the years, this is a very unique and rare opportunity to meet creative folks that normally wouldn't be able to come to a smaller venue. This promises to be a very heartfelt experience.

The actresses will be guests at a special tea held in their honor at the Church of Christ (Disciples) earlier in the day before they appear at Century Farms Barn in the early evening. A special thank you to Century Farms Barn, Don & Robin Warner, Church of Christ (Disciples), Elaine White and Patty Locke.

Major oil & gas announcement for Harrison County expected at upcoming conference “You have no idea.

It’s just the beginning.”

-Joe Barone Owner, Shale Directories, LLC

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributor

CANNONSBURG, PA. — Shale Directories, LLC and TopLine Analytics are hosting

the third annual Appalachian Storage Hub Conference in Cannonsburg, Pa., on June 5 and 6 at the Southpointe Hilton Garden Inn. Joe Barone, owner of Shale Directories, LLC told reporters that this year’s conference will revolve around a huge announcement that impacts Harrison County.

Among the key speakers will be representatives from MPLX, the Marathon pipeline division that merged with MarkWest. There will be an evening meet and greet reception Wednesday night for attendees and a full

day of conference activities on Thursday. The conference will include presentations, panel discussions and lunch with topics covering everything from commercial real estate opportunity zones to local business growth to the need for underground storage—and an announcement. Tickets for the event are on sale at https://www.appastorage.com.

The conference covers anything in regard to storage hubs in Appalachia. Storage Hubs—what are they and why is a conference dedicated to

them? A storage hub is an underground holding place for natural gas. Pipelines connect to the storage hub and allow gas to be transferred underground to processing facilities.

Underground transferring is considered to be the safest way to get natural gas where it needs to go. Storage hubs have been around for decades and are standard practice in the petrochemical industry.

MPLX recently released this statement to the public: “Things are happening fast in the race to build the

Appalachian Storage Hub. Just this week, MPLX disclosed more details on their plans.

MPLX is the third company to outline their intent, behind Mountaineer – Energy Storage Ventures and Appalachian Development Group. Yet they may be the first in service with an anticipated date of 2021!”

Key highlights include: - Design for storage of ethane, propane and butanes in individual salt caverns - Capacity of 5+ million barrels - Buildout of the existing Hopedale, Ohio NGL

fractionation site - Connectivity to all the major NGL pipelines: Utopia, ATEX, TEPPCO, Mariner East 2, Falcon and Cornerstone pipelines The MPLX Hopedale NGL Caverns could become the Appalachian Storage Hub which would give a much needed buffer for exploration and production companies, downstream cracker plants and export facilities in case of the inevitable system upsets. This reduces risk and improves returns for Marcellus and Utica operations.

Red Cross offers free smoke alarms through HC Health Department

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – One of the bigger announcements that came through at Wednesday’s Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) meeting hosted by EMA Director Eric Wilson was that free smoke alarms are still being offered to anyone who wants and needs them. This is a program that began several years ago and all people need to do is call the

Harrison County Health Department (HCHD)(740942-2616) to be added to the list.

“We met all our goals in a twoweek period installing smoke alarms throughout the United States,” Disaster Program Manager for the American Red Cross, Tim Reichel explained.

“So, if you have any folks who need free 10-year smoke alarms, not just one per house but we’ll go in and put two or three or four, depending on the

situation,” Reichel said.

Preparedness Coordinator for the HCHD, John Carr described it as a very simple process for obtaining free smoke alarms.

Carr said if a resident calls in with their name to be added to the list, that contact information is then passed on to Reichel who then relays that information to a volunteer, who then would make contact with that person for scheduling an appointment.

“It couldn’t be easier,” Carr said.

Buckeye West plans pavilion project ADENA-Students at Buckeye West Elementary School will get plenty of coverage while outdoors with the addition of a new pavilion that is planned for the playground.

Principal Lucas Parsons said about $7,500 has been collected through donations and fundraisers and the new structure should be ready in time for the next school year.

Work on the pavilion will begin this summer through Leoni Concrete of Tiltonsville and Carports and More for American Steel Inc. “All of the funds have been raised,” he said. “I give a huge thank you to the Adena Lions Club, Adena American Legion Post 525, Adena American Legion Women’s Auxiliary and the West Elementary PTO for their gracious donations.”

The organizations will be listed

on a sign near the structure as another show of appreciation.

The school also conducted a quarter auction last month which was organized by the PTO and kindergarten teacher Jess Brown, who is also a parent and Adena native. The pavilion may be used for respite during hot days as well as for class or outdoor parties, while some extra activities will be available when the school’s estimated 220 students head to recess.

“We are also putting in tether ball, new basketball hoops and painting the blacktop with games and activities,” Parsons continued. “The baseball field is getting a facelift as well with new benches.”

The updates are just the latest to come to the school campus, which previously added playground equipment geared towards students in grades 4-6.

That improvement was three years in the making and cost an estimated $18,000 to complete.

David Williams and Associates (DWA) Recreation of Harrison, Ohio, provided the ageappropriate items and handled the installation while PTO and teachers raised money for the set. The playground, which is located in the upper field on the south side of the campus, features swings, monkey bars and a balance beam but children in lower grades may still use it.

Meanwhile, the younger grades still have access to the current playground on the lower end.

Parsons said none of the projects would have been possible without continued support from the Adena community.

“They take pride in making sure West is the best it can be,” he concluded.

As black bear sightings increase, remember to bear-proof your yard AKRON, OH – Approximately 70 different black bears are reported annually in the Buckeye State according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife. Sightings of black bears rise in the summer months due to young males looking for their own territory.

Every year, some of these bears are associated with conflict situations.

The most common problem in northeast Ohio is damage to bird feeders; therefore, it is important to remove all bird feeders and stop feeding birds between Memorial Day and Labor Day., Removing uneaten pet food, keeping trash inside until pick up day, and cleaning up after grilling are strongly recommended actions to prevent bears from frequenting an area and becoming conflict animals. Taking such steps helps prevent bears from associating food with presence of people and allows bears to move on to avoid future problems.

If a bear is sighted, individuals should report the sighting at wildohio.gov, but the bear should be left alone and given space. The

black bear is listed as an endangered species in Ohio and is protected by state law.

All that is needed is that phone call asking to be added to the list, Carr continued stating that an email to go along with a phone call is not a requirement but helpful. Carr also said one snag they’ve run into in past years is when people have caller ID and do not recognize the phone number, then some people may not answer their phone, which means the smoke alarms can’t get delivered and installed.

Carr also said there are no limits to how many smoke alarms to be

put into a person’s home and no income requirement, or restrictions.

“I have two women who do nothing but schedule so we will come out at their request and schedule a time so we know they are home,” Reichel explained.

“Other times we will have organized walks to do that maybe, at the end of summer [or] beginning of fall.”

Reichel said that an organized walk was conducted in the past and could be done again where

they have volunteers, 10 to 15 he said on a particular day, where “we just go down streets and knock on doors and install alarms.”

“We’ve installed quite a few in Hopedale and we can install quite a few more,” Reichel told Hopedale council member Don Jochims who was present for the meeting. Jochims said he’s had requests for alarms and said they have put the forms to fill out at the Hopedale municipal building.
