Ambulance district sees reversal, passes

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Echoes of Mark Twain’s famous quote: “reports of my death are greatly exaggerated” can probably be heard through the halls of the Hopedale Fire Department as news broke that the Silver Spade Ambulance District (SPAD) did pass vote after all.

Two weeks ago when Cadiz village council sat down for a third reading to approve the SPAD, council members Terry Capers, Mike McPeak and John Vermillion all voted in favor but the last two council members is where it hit a snag with Thomas Crawshaw voting against the district and council

member, Dan Ossman abstaining for personal reasons. That put the count at three votes for, one against and one abstaining.

Four votes were needed with one council member, Chace Smith, not being present, though it was widely believed that he would have voted in favor of the SPAD. After the surprise wore off, Village Solicitor Costa D. Mastros announced that the ordinance had failed to pass as there seemed to be some confusion in what the 3-1-1 vote meant. If Mastros had any doubts then he didn’t say but later felt the need to check into it further.

Mastros said this week that after further inspection of the case law, Ossman’s abstaining vote acts as a

“yes” vote. In other words, the actual vote of 3-1-1 now becomes 4-1 as the abstaining vote becomes a yes vote, Mastros stated.

In a memo obtained from the village of Cadiz sent by Mastros, it reads: “Each ordinance or resolution shall be passed, except as otherwise provided by law, by a vote of at least the majority of the members of the legislative authority,” according to Ohio Revised Code 731.17(A)(4).

“The case law in this matter states that this issue is governed by common law principles. The law regarding this particular issue holds that one who is present at a council meeting, who does not register a vote on a matter then being voted upon, shall be held

to have acquiesced in the action taken by the majority of those who do vote, and that his vote should be recorded as concurring with the majority,” Mastros stated in the memo.

Mastros’ comments in the memo continued by stating, “It is my opinion that the common law rule shall apply in this case in that the abstention recorded as the “vote” for Mr. Ossman should be recorded as concurring with the three members voting to approve the ordinance.

Therefore, the ordinance passed with four “yeas” entered upon the journal and the record of the council minutes.”

Hopedale Fire Chief Mark Marchetta said this week that the

SPAD can now be formed but the fire levy will have to be voted on in March. If it doesn’t pass then the SPAD has about a year from now (next November) to last but without the passing of a levy, the ambulance district cannot afford to operate.

“You’re getting better service for less money,” he said in reference to the more districts involved the less the cost. Now, the two participating townships, Green and Cadiz join the villages of Cadiz and Hopedale to make up the SPAD. Marchetta said that the ambulance committee will meet soon and make a decision on the amount of the levy to be up for vote.

MWCD approves 2020 budget

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

NEW PHILADELPHIA – For the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District’s (MWCD) November meeting, the anticipated 2020 budget was approved after hearing a preliminary report from their Chief Financial Officer Jim Cugliari in October.

At that meeting Cugliari speculated a red figure of around $4.4 million but was able to carve it down to $2,350,560.72 after redoing the numbers and going back over some projects.

Other items of note were revenues also projected to be down 10 percent from the estimated 2019 ending with expenditures to rise 10 percent above the same estimate.

Also of note, gas and oil royalties are estimated to be down a whopping 50 percent in 2020 with $8.9 million, from the estimated 2019 ending of $17.8. Gas and oil leasing, though, is budgeted to rise by 28 percent. Grant revenue is expected to rise from a 2019 ending of $117,181.50 to a 2020 budget figure of $399,114.

Under expenditures and income, it is estimated that the 2019 forecast will come in at just under $2 million from the December Year To Date (YTD) figure. The 2020 expense budget is expected to come in lower than 2019, at just over $38,498,000 (covering personnel, materials & supplies, contract, operating equipment and “other”).

Total revenues for all funds, including maintenance assessment funds, improvement funds and recreation Mike Sulek of Sulek & Dutton Real Estate who just cut the ribbon on his new office on W. Market Street in Cadiz on Wednesday said the infrastructure projects, the lack of a real estate office and the new school is what drew his business to Cadiz. This is his third office with the first being in St. Clairsville and the other has been up and running in Barnesville.

JEWETT – Jewett council members at Wednesday’s council meeting honored McKinney Thompson and Katina Watt for Citizens of the Year. The two were presented their plaques and great appreciation for their efforts in the community.

Thompson was saluted for his contributions to the village as well as the Wildcat Community Center. Watt, as the founder of the Eric Watt True Heart Foundation in honor of her late husband, was honored for those efforts and for her efforts in supporting the Wildcat Center as well.

Watt said they have aided 15 families as of now alongside

Also, the job has begun on Jewett’s major waterline project.

The overhaul has been a long time coming with Mayor Dwight Busby, describing some of the routes Border Patrol is taking as of now. After working into the lumber yard they were making their preparations for taking on High Street.

He said vehicles needed to be moved and if they cannot locate the owners, “we might have to have them towed.” When asked if any vehicles would be towed to the garage that is towing them or

From PG | 1 dropped off at the park, Busby felt that would probably be up to the towing service.

Council member Rick Meneely stated that the village could not guarantee the owners anything because the village would not be paying for the towing.

“I just thought it would be cheaper for them if [they] could just drop them there,” Meneely said of the vehicles possibly being dropped off at the park where they would be out of the way.

MWCD

From PG | 1 improvement is listed at, $34,564,966.26 compared to the total expenditures of $65,608,037.28. For 2020 activity under maintenance fund, timber harvesting is expected to come in at $330,000 in revenue versus just $38,992 in expenses. Also, lake patrol operations is expected to jump in expenses to $708,,452 and change compared to just $34,700 in revenue. And marina operations including camping, is expected to see an opposite jump with revenues far exceeding expenses: $3,035,817

“They probably want them on site to get paid for,” he said of the towing service. Busby said he would hope that the owners would move their vehicles in time. Busby said he expects the job to last at least 10 months in total, weather permitting.

Meneely was upbeat about the village’s future outlook noting the new waterlines, water town, sewage plant upgrades, “possibly a new water plant, all we need is people.”

Council Member, Bo Bailie told council everyone needed to come early for the next meeting of personnel to review the manual. He said he would be making copies for all and have

the committee review before the next council meeting in preparation for its approval.

In Clerk of Water and Public Affairs Rhonda Harris’s Regional Income Tax Agency (RITA) report, the village is ahead of last year’s November reading by 34 percent, or approximately $12,342. For the year-to-date collections, she cited $46,912.16 as of now.

Also for the month of November, 64 late fees came to $565 and water collections for the month came to $13,712.81 with wastewater coming to $12,155.17 for a total of $26,667.98.

“Just to get you an idea, I want

you guys to know that I’m really working hard on trying to get these people caught up on their bills,” Harris told council. She said out of $23,816 billed out for November, they still were able to collect the $26,000-plus amount.

For December’s new bills, $22,607,08 and four residents had their services shut off at the beginning of the week with two still shut off. She said that from November three still need shut off with Council Member, Rick Meneely pleased at the low number considering how long the village has been battling the problem.

to $1,800,063.

For actual expenses in the maintenance assessment fund for 2020, it is projected they will spend $122,531 on water resource and flood control and another $476,700 on water quality monitoring. Reservoir maintenance will cost $108,234; dam safety and upgrades more than $1.1 million; flood mitigation, $33,332 with sediment removal taking the largest chunk at $3,385,000 and assessments another $778,000.

And shoreline protection will cost more than $1.4 million in 2020.

Staying with actual revenues for the 2020 budget, mineral operations (oil and gas), is

expected to ring up $11,391,000 versus the $20,600,000 for the 2019 adjusted revenue forecast.

Expenses are expected to be $328,800.

The grand total for actual revenue versus expenses is listed as $34.5 million in revenues and $65.6 million in expenses. And keeping with Capital Improvements in mind, the total recreation improvement fund revenues were just $1.7 million versus $38.4 million in expenses.

In the park Master Plans for 2020, Seneca tops the lakes 2020 budget with $7,293,781 followed by Tappan and its total reconstruction of its marina at

$6,227,848; Pleasant Hill is set at $6,007,267 with Atwood standing as the fourth highest budget at $4,923,530 followed

by Charles Mill’s $2,633,929, Piedmont at $1,210,654 and Clendening and Leesville both over $400,000. Of Tappan’s total budget campground and marina renovations take up half that budget and Seneca’s Marina Point campground redevelopment for Phases I and II, taking up over $5 million of that 2020 budget.

Out of Atwood’s $4.9 million budget, $3.8 million is being swallowed up by the main campground improvements as well.

Tippecanoe man sentenced to nine months

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Timothy McDonald, 40, of Tippecanoe received Tuesday a nine month prison sentence for burglary, a felony of the third degree and theft, a fifth degree felony. The burglary charge was originally a second degree felony but was amended during a pre-trial conference where he accepted the plea deal.

Judge T. Shawn Hervey also revealed results of an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS) McDonald

was given where he showed to be a high risk for recidivism, as well as a high level of supervision needed. McDonald was represented by Aaron Richardson.

Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese told the court he was requesting McDonald pay $2,000 in restitution to the victim, who chose not to be present, according to Bruzzese.

Hervey agreed to the restitution amount as well as the recommended sentence. A sixmonth sentence for the theft is to run concurrent with the nine

months.

Also, Ryan Harris, 27 of Adena appeared in common pleas court to hear a motion by the state to revoke his Community Based Control (CBC) sanctions.

Harris, who was represented by Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola received a continuance via his attorney’s request. Back in November, Harris was slammed with a $1 million bond for allegedly violating sanctions over his 2017 conviction on a slew of charges ranging from multiple grand thefts and breaking and entering.

Also, Linda Beach appeared before Judge Hervey on the state’s motion to revoke her CBC sanctions. Hervey stated that Beach had tested positive for meth amphetamines and Bruzzese informed the court that she had been “non-compliant” and had no contact with her corrections officer, as well as not in attendance for AA meetings.

Bruzzese requested and received bond to be set at $25,000.

Pincola, who represented Beach, requested and received a future evidentiary hearing.

MWCD Master Plan 3rd quarter released million in actual annual expenditures. For that same year is where the cumulative programmed amount jumped significantly to around $40 million and continued to rise from there to reach the estimated cost for 2021.

For Phase II, the cumulative amount began in 2018 at a mere $74,872 and rose to over $1.6 million for this year. That figure is expected to rise to $16.9 in 2020, over $39.2 million in 2021 and from $55.2 million in 2022 to more than $64.4 million for 2023.

For total RV sites (all parks), those numbers have risen and dipped some from a high of 2,508 in 2016 to a projected settlement of 2,529 in 2023 when construction is completed at all sites. For RV sites at all marinas, this year they will have 222 where it dips greatly to 137 for 2022 then jumps back up to 207 for 2023 post-construction.

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com NEW PHILADELPHIA – The 3rd quarter of the Park Master Plan was released last month and for Phase I of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD), things are expected to be winding down in the next two years where the budget has ballooned to more than $130 million for Phase I alone. Phase 2 is expected to be around an additional $64 million, which is in line for the 2021 estimate. In 2014 the MWCD spent $352,150 for an actual expenditure where it gradually rose to a little more than $6.9 million in 2015 and over $8.8 million in 2016. But the cumulative programmed amount was driven to $16,074,187 for that same year.

2017 is where the figure jumped extensively to more than $25.2

The numbers for cabins (all parks), remains steady at 35 from 2015 through 2018 but will rise to an additional six more cabins in 2019 and remain there through 2021. For all marinas, there are 18 existing cabins and information provided states that that number is to remain there through 2022.

Some Atwood Lake Park improvements are the Camp Area 4 restroom upgrades, which will replace the existing toilet and shower building “with a new CXT 4-family Navajo unit.” For their main campground work, bids for construction is expected in the fourth quarter of this year, as design work has almost been completed.

The preliminary and major work for Tappan’s campgrounds and marina continues with notably the re-bidding of the marina work, which is expected in the fourth quarter of 2019. Construction is

The project was held up by funding and was closed for several years. “This has been an extremely long time coming and I’m so thankful this project is finally completed,” Commissioner Don Bethel stated this week. “Commissioners are happy for the residents of German Township, and we sincerely thank them and their Township Trustees for being so patient and understanding throughout this entire process. “No question residents have literally displayed the patience of job and should be thanked and commended.”

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy “Dec. 7, 1941 is a date which will live in infamy when the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” These were words that began in a speech given to Congress on Dec. 8, 1941, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt after being attacked at Pearl Harbor.

“Always the older Americans will remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.”

That Dec. 7 date is today as you read this newspaper delivered to your door today. I just wanted people to know what went on before they were born.

And has continued through other wars. I have great respect for any veteran who has been through a war. I saw many newsreels of fighting and injury or worse through many of those times.

designed to end as the World War I generation did. But World War II veterans had other ideas, according to the “Get Involved in Opportunities for National Service Act.” It was defined for their recognition and American Legion eligibility and had taken more than nine months after the attack on Pearl Harbor before WWII veterans were eligible to join the Legion.

A national WWII liaison was established and local panels formed to determine the needs of a new generation. So now we see the ones who served and those who kept their boots on the ground marching in holiday parades, raising flags at the beginning of sports events, saluting the flag and in greeting those of a higher rank than themself.

Off on another past event, how many remember “Mean Joe Greene” and how he accepts a can of Coke by an awestruck young boy back in 1979? The 275-pound well- toned player, although he was limping into the locker room in the commercial, was so overcome that he turned sunny and tossed his jersey to the boy. “Hey kid… catch!” he said. And those three words raised his popularity well beyond his 13-year, 10 ProBowl career. This was in Sports Illustrated. I read the magazine each week.

Turn it around, and a staff you will see, Jesus my shepherd was born for me! 2) Jesus isn’t just the reason for the season: He’s the reason for every day of our life. 3) Let’s pray that this holiday season, love replaces hate, faith replaces fear and people remember the bond we all share.

JEWETT/CADIZ

By Ruby Foutz I sure hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and didn't eat too much. And now that the weather is too cold to go out, there are some great football teams to watch. You never know which team will be the big winner anymore; the Browns, Steelers, Ohio State.

This is where my recipe should go. This recipe would be good at a football party or any kind of get-to-gather - CoconutPineapple Tart. 1 refrigerated pie crust (from 15 oz. box) softened as directed on box; 1/2 cup pineapple preserves; 1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted; 2 egg whites; 1/4 cup sugar; 1 cup shredded coconut; 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove piecrust from pouch; unroll on ungreased cookie sheet. Fold in crust edge 1 inch to form border; flute.

Spread preserves evenly over crust; sprinkle with almonds. In a small bowl, beat egg whites with electric mixer on high speed until slightly thickened.

Gradually add sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Fold in coconut and vanilla. Spread over almonds.

Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is light golden brown and top is lightly toasted. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool.

Actually, my old neighbor at Marco Island, FL gave me this recipe over 30 years ago but it's delicious anytime. Enjoy!

It was good to see my good friends Janice & George Moreland at lunch last Saturday in Jewett.

Check in the Harrison News Herald for free dinners at churches, activities and events at the local libraries and other happenings in your area.

Happy Birthday wishes and many more to Rosie Clemens Gray, Charlene Thomas Whipkey, Gary & Cristly Zimmerman, Sarah McKibbon, MaryJo Fisher, Terri Brock, Amy L. Carney, Linda J. Ager, Frances L. Baer, and Jan L. Arbaugh.

Happy anniversary and many more to Ivan & Jean Dowdle.

Rev. Dr. Ruby Foutz would like to leave you with this scripture - Psalm 119:1-103 for Physical and Spiritual Nourishment. Spending time with God daily makes a good spiritual diet. God bless you all.

Look at the Past

Obituaries

Looking back at William L. Houser

Look at the Past: William L. Houser, born 17 June 1825, died 3 Aug. 1905, married in 1857 Miss Sarah Virginia Hall; had seven children. Mr. Houser was a dealer in horses and was in the livery business. He partnered with Walter Craig in horse auctions.

Feb. 1887 The Cadiz Oil and Natural Gas Company organized and W. L. Houser was on the Board of Directors. The home pictured here is on W Market St, and was last occupied by Truck and Industrial Supply.

MAYOR’S CORNER Seasons Greetings!

I hope everyone got their fill of turkey and dressing, and now we move on to Christmas. Since Thanksgiving was a little later, it seems as though the Christmas holidays are coming sooner. Don’t forget to get out and watch the parade this evening, Saturday, December 7 at 6:00 PM, with the line-up to start on Grant Street starting at 5:00 PM. Be sure and view all the “snow people” adorning the square around the tree as well. This project was started last year and has really taken off. This and the addition of the banners and snowflakes adorning the light poles really make the Village look festive.

Thank you to the street crew for getting them all put up, and to the Cadiz Business Association for helping defray some of the costs.

Thanks also to the Belmont Vocational students who get the snowmen built.

The Cadiz Police department would like to remind uptown residents to park in the rear of your buildings during this Saturday’s Christmas Parade.

There will be no parking from

4:00 PM until the end of the parade. Unmoved vehicles will be towed at the owner’s expense.

The Police department would like to inform citizens that law enforcement see an increase in thefts during the holiday season.

Residents are encouraged to make sure your vehicles are secured, as well as your homes. Make sure any suspicious activity is reported so officers can check the area and deter any possible criminal activity.

A big thank you from Chief McCann and the Police department to the residents and local businesses that donated to the “Shop With a Cop” program.

Officers will be taking the kids shopping Tuesday, Dec. 10 at 6 p.m. at the Steubenville WalMart.

Park superintendent Scott Porter tells us that Christmas Card Lane is all ready for visitors this holiday season. It will be open for viewing until Jan. 2, 2020. Gates will be open till 10 p.m. daily. The walking trails are still in use, and will be kept as clean as possible throughout the winter.

It is budget time for the Village and the General Fund budget is

by Cadiz Mayor, Ken Zitko very tight. Just like all businesses, our major cost is employee wages and benefits, including the Village’s contributions to Medicare, Workers Compensation, and the various employee retirement funds. This year we are facing a $79,000 increase in our health insurance costs, plus the need to replace trucks in our sewer and street departments. These vehicles are 14 years old, and not worth repairing any longer.

The Village Administrator along with Village Council and I will have to make some tough adjustments in order to have a balanced budget.

The November election has made for some new changes for our Council at the first of the year.

We would like to thank Mr. Thomas Crawshaw and Mr. Mike McPeak for all of their hard work and efforts throughout their tenure. Sometimes it’s not an easy thing to do, but both of these men have always gone above and beyond. Along the same lines, my congratulations to Mr. William Hyde and Mr. Eric Miller, who have been elected to fill the two vacant seats. I am positive they will both do an outstanding job of

serving the Village. Also I would like to congratulate Mayor-Elect John Migliore, taking over the Mayor’s seat.

As December is the last month of my third term as Mayor, I would like to thank the citizens of Cadiz. I became a councilman in 1993 and Mayor in 2008. During these years it has been an honor and a privilege to serve the Village of Cadiz. I feel that along with Council, the employees, citizens, and the many government agencies we have worked with, there have been many improvements throughout the Village.

The Cadiz municipal offices will be closed on Tuesday, Dec. 24, Wednesday, Dec. 25 and Wednesday, Jan. 2 for the holidays. The Village employees along with myself and Council members would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year!

Thanks for reading, and have a great holiday. Call me at 740-9428844 ext. 224 with any comments or suggestions.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR continued donations for the cats of community. Thanks also to those Humane Society the who donate through mail; our is P.O. Box 404 Cadiz, Ohio seeks assistance address 43907 or through PayPal. The Letter To The Editor; The Humane Society of Harrison County held their annual meeting on Dec. 2, at the Puskarich Library.

The animal foster program is up and going but the society needs many more volunteers to help with fostering animals for the short term.

Harrison County does not have an animal shelter, so animals that are abused or neglected need fosters to help until a home can be found.

The Humane Society also has a horse, two cats, and a dog currently in foster care that are looking for new homes. If anyone is interested, they will need to put in an application and all homes will be screened to assure they are able to care for the animal. You may apply online through the Harrison Humane Society Facebook page or by calling any member for instructions on how to apply.

We would like to thank Jefferson County Landmark of Cadiz for the donation of 500 pounds of dog food to help county dogs. If you are in need of straw or food to help your animal, please do not hesitate to contact the humane society to assist you. Also, please remember that in cold weather, your animal needs a shelter and straw in that shelter. It is best if you bring the animal inside, especially during cold days and nights or in cases of freezing rain.

Pets must have access to water (make sure it is not frozen) and food.

Animals do freeze in the igloo dog houses so if you MUST leave them outside and have that type of house, assure there is plenty of straw in the house and possibly a door, even of stiff cloth to cover the opening. A heat lamp could also be hung from the ceiling. You can also find Hound Heaters online (google them) for dog boxes or cat boxes.

Thank you to the Legion Riders for your generous donation and to the Mary Ford family for your

PayPal link is humanesocietyhc.com.

All money collected is used to benefit the animals of Harrison County.

The Humane Society is announcing a new spay and neuter program. For Harrison County residents, we will pay $50 toward the spay or neuter of your pet. You must contact Linda Porter on Facebook at Linda Sullivan Porter or 740-3911565 or Cindi Yanez at 740-576-0002. We will pay toward the cost through all Harrison County vets, at Heritage Animal Clinic in Hopedale, Scio Veterinary Clinic, or through AlterCare Pet Clinic mobile unit. AlterCare is a reduced cost unit that comes to Cadiz once monthly. They offer cat spays for $45 for a male plus $15 for the rabies shot and $5 transport (only $5 transport even if you have multiple animals) and $55 for a female. They will also spay a feral cat brought in a cage (truly feral) for $35 plus the rabies shot cost. Your only cost for the feral would then be $5. The next clinic is Dec.18. For more information check Linda Sullivan Porter Facebook page. You must contact Linda or Cindi to set this up with whatever Harrison County vet you use. The $50 will only go toward the spay or neuter cost, not other veterinary costs.

New membership begins in January. The cost is $10 for the year running January through December.

You may mail membership to Humane Society of Harrison County, P.O. Box 404, Cadiz, Ohio 43907. Include your name, address, phone, and email address.

Our meetings are held the third Thursday of the month at 5:30 in the bottom of the Puskarich Library.

We look forward to new members.

Conotton Valley HoF Committee announces 2020 inductees BOWERSTON — The Conotton Valley High School Athletic Hall of Fame Committee has announced its selections for this year. Two individuals and one team will be officially inducted on Jan. 25, 2020 at Conotton Valley High School. The inductees are 1961 graduate Larry Dunlap, 1998 graduate Lisa Holdsworth Alsept, along with the 1984 basketball team coached by Harry Huggins which had an 18-2 regular season record.

Larry Dunlap was a 1961 graduate of Conotton Valley High School who lettered all four years in baseball, football, and basketball for a total of 12 varsity letters. Dunlap was actually offered a scholarship at Ohio University in basketball after he graduated but chose to sign with the Cleveland Indians as a left-handed pitcher right out of high school and was promptly sent to Tucson early in 1962 for spring training with the Indians and then was assigned to their minor league affiliate, the Dubuque Packers. Dunlap played one year in the minors and was released to make room

for Jim “Mudcat” Grant, who later starred for the Indians for many years. He is a member of the Tuscarawas County Cy Young Baseball Hall of Fame.

Dunlap was also a 1961 AllEastern Ohio basketball player who scored over 1,000 points in his high school career. He held the career total points record at Conotton Valley High School for 42 years before it was broken with the advent of the three point shot.

Lisa Holdsworth Alsept, a 1988 graduate, excelled in both

basketball and volleyball while attending Conotton Valley High School earning four letters in basketball and three in volleyball.

In basketball, she was a TimesReporter One-on-One participant, team MVP, and District 5 second team.

1984 Basketball Team

Alsept furthered her athletic career in college at the University of Akron where she earned four volleyball letters from 19891993. She was named the team’s Most Improved Player in 1991 where she recorded a career high 32 digs vs. Marquette and was named captain of the Zips volleyball team her senior year.

The 1984 boys basketball team ran up 18 regular season victories against just two losses

while being coached by Harry Huggins and at one point had a 16-game winning streak.

The inductees will be honored between the junior varsity and varsity boys basketball game between the Strasburg Tigers and the Rockets on Friday, January 24, with a hospitality room opened in the school board office from 5-7 for any individuals wishing to visit and congratulate the inductees.

Bardall family receives Hall of Fame award

By ESTHER MCCOY FREEPORT- Being selected for a person of the year Hall of Fame Award: is sensational in any work, sport, education, or business and having it awarded to the Bardall family by the Harrison County Farm Bureau was exciting when it happened in September.

Thomas Bardall, who received the award with his wife, Marge; son, Jeff; grandson, Tate; and granddaughter, Taylor, tells that he has been on the same farm for 82 of his 84 years, explaining that two years were spent serving in the U.S. Army in 1957 to 59. His dad, John, former owner of the farm, even

decided in a season when there was more work than workers that Tom, then age 5, needed to learn to milk.That started his career in the dairy business. The farm had 36 milking cows and six people doing the work in the past. They also delivered the milk into Freeport to be sold.

Now the Bardalls have beef cattle on their 150 acre farm.

There are 75 beef cattle and 300 ewes in a county where sheep were one of the leading industries. Jeff has pig finishing barns and lives on the land in the first house built in 1836.

Tate, 20, also works the farm and won in his bid for township trustee in the past election.

Taylor is 15 and attends school.

Tate was in 4-H and Taylor is in

a 4-H club now, taking beef cattle. She has done really well her projects, according to her grandfather.

In regard to the Farm Bureau, the elder Bardall purchased his first Farm Bureau Insurance from Milleson Insurance Co. when he was 18-years-old and has been a steady customer since.

Tom received a Hall of Fame Award plaque with the Bardall name engraved and a barn photo from the Milleson Insurance Company. They are proud of the award but just as proud of the farming career that has been carried on with Tom and his family starting with his miking cows at age 5.

IT’S FLU SEASON.

Adena Lions Club to present Christmas Cantata ADENA —The Adena Lions Club will be presenting their annual Christmas cantata this Sunday, Dec. 8. There will be a 2 p.m. presentation at St. Casimir’s Catholic Church in Adena and a 7 p.m. presentation at the Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian Church. This year, the choir will be presenting a new cantata entitled “The Greatest Story Ever Told,” which was created by Dennis and Nan Allen.

Admission to the cantata is free, and there is open seating. A monetary love offering will be collected with 100 percent of the collection going to the Adena and Dillonvale food pantries. There will be refreshments following the 7 p.m. presentation.

Cantata director Dustin Kinsey states, “We are very excited to debut a new musically exciting and spiritually powerful presentation this year. The funds to purchase this cantata actually came from some of the memorial contributions made in memory of my Grandma Emma Kinsey earlier this year. Christian music and our annual cantata were very important to her. This new musical is a great way to honor her but more importantly to honor Christ as we share the Christmas message with the community.

Please, please try to join us for one of our two presentations. I

Jeff. Co. JVS represented at fall conferences BLOOMINGDALEJefferson County Joint Vocational School was well represented as students attended two fall leadership conferences.

Four students were named to the Skills USA Southeast Regional Office during an event on Nov. 14-15 while 14 health technologies students participated in the Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) Future Health Professionals Fall Leadership Conference on Nov.

5. Both activities were held in Columbus and health tech instructor Tammy Sismondo, who advises both groups, said the students learned leadership skills which will prove valuable in the future.

“We took 40 students from the automotive tech service, auto collision, criminal justice, electrical trades, welding and health tech labs and they took a tour of the statehouse,” she added, saying AST instructor Ron Reasoner also participated as a co-advisor. “The students

had an opportunity to learn first-hand how government works.”

The event was held at the Columbus Convention Center and included various sessions while juniors Kacey Carothers, Haylee Blackburn and Alexis Grigsby, who are health tech students, and AST student Shane McCoy were named to the regional office. Sismondo said JVS students Julia Rura, Jaiden Plunkett, Tyler Corella and Tim Ferrell acted as delegates to help get them

elected. The new officers will be busy with their new roles in the coming months.

“They will be officers for the Southeast Regional competition at the Buckeye Career Center in New Philadelphia on Feb. 21 and go to the Regional Officer Training in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 20-25. They will attend leadership training and tour Washington,” Sismondo said.

“Senior health technologies student Allyson Burkett, who is a state officer, will also travel to

D.C. as a representative.”

For now, students are gearing up for Skills USA competitions which kick off in January at the JVS while the regional contest will be held at the Buckeye Career Center in New Philadelphia in February.

Meanwhile, 14 health tech students were part of the HOSA Conference earlier this month where they were involved in more leadershipbased activities. Among those attending were juniors Madison Bitgood, Haylee

Blackburn, Paige Boals, Kacey Carothers, Tyler Corella, Alexis Grigsby and Jesica Pedersen and seniors Ryan Maple, Hannah Meeker, Nicole Monday, Jaiden Plunkett, Asrielle Pratko, Abigail Saffell and Sam Shrock.

“They worked with new educational technology for health and a new anatomy table. It was a great learning experience for Skills USA and HOSA kids. Both trips were invaluable for the students,” Sismondo noted.
