The City of Sylva-nia, Sylvania Town-ship, the Economic De-velopment Committee of the Sylvania Area Chamber of Commerce and the SACIC un-veiled a branding cam-paign on September 22, 2010, at an 11:30 a.m. luncheon at Treo Res-taurant, 5703 Main St. The branding campaign is designed to provide local economic devel-opment agencies, de-velopers and real estate professionals’ informa-tion and real-time as-sistance for businesses looking to relocate to northwest Ohio and those companies who are considering a busi-ness move. A bus tour of Sylvania followed the presentation.

The campaign fea-tures a City/Township economic development brochure, a six-minute video about the area, a business and com-munity directory and information about the SACIC. Additionally a community website, www.discoversylvania.com, will feature much

of the information on-line. Representatives from the Chamber, City, Township and SACIC met and coordinated the Sylvania Commu-nity Presentation Plan.

The packet offers a “who, what, where, when and how” map to the City of Sylvania and Sylvania Township. Pat Nowak, Sylvania Area Chamber of Com-merce Executive Direc-tor, states “Businesses are now very prudent when making reloca-tion decisions. Often the corporate executive studies many sites and makes decisions based on availability of land resources, economic assistance and quality of life in the area. The Sylvania area, voted, one of Ohio Maga-zine best hometowns for 2010, has so many amenities that are pleasing to companies wanting to make a lo-cation change. The new Sylvania area presenta-tion campaign puts the information at their fin-gertips.”

This past Sunday, Sept. 19, the Sylvania Historical Village hosted their annual Fossil Festival, allowing Sylvania families to dig in to family fun and Sylvania’s geological past.

The Fossil Festival took place at the Sylvania Historical Village, locat-ed at 5717 Main St., from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The Festival is family-centered, and gave children of all ages the chance to participate in games, a fossil dig, an egg hunt, a running race, and the opportunity to learn more about fossils from area experts. Joy Brown-Latimer, an art teacher at Highland Elementary School, described the purpose of the event.

“The Fossil Festival is a fun, multi-aged family event. It educates children about our region’s history from millions of years ago. I teach archeological history to my second- and fi fth-graders, and what they’re taught here at the Festival ties right in to what they‘re learning in class,” said Latimer.

Actual shale was brought in on the day of the event, allowing children to dig for real fossils. By sifting

through a handful of dirt, small fossils emerged. Tom Marok, a member of the Toledo Rock and Gem Club, explained the different types of fossils found.

“In just our small dig alone, we found thirty-sev-en varieties of brachiopods, some larger trilobites, and lots of coral and small fos-sils. For every large fossil found, there are at least two million smaller fossils in the dirt,” said Marok.

Some of the games that ran all day included the Lollipop Pull, where children picked lollipops out of a dinosaur-shaped board, the Dinno Lasso, where the object of the game was to throw rope lassoes around menac-ing dinosaurs, and various fi shing games. Tickets were required to play the games and cost $.35 a piece, or 3 tickets for $1.

At noon, an egg-hunt was hosted by Sandy Gratop, Naturalist at Olander Park. Following the hunt, two run-ning races were held: One for children fi ve years of age and younger and another for children seven years of age and older. Each child that ran was given a ribbon, and the runners that came in fi rst through third place were given special recognition.

Various booths were set up around the Village to display local fossil col-lections and merchandise. Members of the Toledo Area Aboriginal Research Society, the Toledo Rock and Gem Club, and other organiza-tions were present to answer questions. The historical buildings in the Village were also open, including the recently-built Train Barn, built through funding from the State of Ohio Cultural Facilities Commission.

The whole event was run by volunteers, many of whom were high school students. One such volunteer, Nikki Griffi n, a junior at Sylvania Southview High School, enjoys working at the Fossil Festival every year.

“I enjoy volunteering because it’s fun to work

with the kids. Everyone who comes has a great time play-ing the games and digging for fossils,” said Griffi n.

Through the help of volunteers, the Historical Village can continue to host the Festival each year. Joyce Armstrong, the director of the Sylvania Historical Village, explained why the Fossil Festival is so impor-tant.

“This Festival is a fam-ily-activity day, where fos-

sil hunters of all ages come together. Everyone that comes can fi nd a fossil sim-ply by sifting dirt though their hands. The event ties today’s society back to the origins of our community,” said Armstrong.

The Fossil Festival is held yearly on the third Sunday of September. The next public event at the Sylvania Historical Village will be the Fall Festival, which will be held on Sunday, Oct. 17.

Maumee junior quarter-back Jake Schneider was responsible for 428 yards of total offense as the Panthers defeated Northview 31-8 in the opening night for Northern Lakes League play Friday.

Northview coach Eric Keller gave credit not only to Maumee players, but also to Maumee Coach John Boles.

“The credit has to go to John and his staff and the way that his kids played,” Keller said. “They weren’t any bigger than us, they weren’t any faster than us, and they surely didn’t play a lot harder than us.”

“We can’t drop balls and have stupid penalties, we can’t miss lots of tackles and expect to beat anybody,”

Keller continued. “That’s a well-coached football team. We thought we were pretty

good, and we thought we could play with them and we learned that we’re not as

good as we think we are.”

Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center Foundation presented its annual event, “A Night to Remember,” on Friday, September 10, 2010 at the Valentine Theatre in Toledo.

Arriving guests were treated to a beautiful set-ting, compliments of Keith Brooks who always makes the area outstand-ing. A fun silent auction welcomed guests to bid while mingling. A fabu-lous dinner from Gladieux Catering followed and at 8:00 p.m. guests were invited into the theater to be entertained with a unique live auction and concert featuring Dennis DeYoung and the music of STYX. Committee chair-persons introduced for ‘A Night to Remember’ were Event Chairs Ralph and Lynn Than and Honorary Chairman- Dr. Mary Anne Lenkay.

DeYoung performed acoustic renditions of such classics as: “Lady,” “Babe,” “Come Sail Away,” “Mr. Roboto,” “Grand Illusion,” “Lorelei,” “Suite Madame Blue,” “Rockin’ the Paradise,” “Don’t Let It End,” plus many more, including solo works and new music.

Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center Foundation will use the net proceeds from this event to support the mission of St. V’s, which is “to extend the healing ministry of Jesus by improving the health of our communities with an emphasis on the people

who are poor and under-served.”

This funding will bene-fit vital and important mis-sion-based programs sup-ported by the Foundation such as:

Marguerite D’Youville Program: Provides patients and their families’ assis-tance during times of crisis. In 2008 alone, over 5,000 patients and their families received assistance with rent, transportation, medi-cation, utilities, food and clothing.

Senior Outreach: Provides in-home interven-tions to seniors who have chronic illness and are at-risk of repeated, prevent-able emergency room and hospital admissions due to a wide range of social and economic problems that make it difficult to manage their illness.

Hospitality Van Service: Provides transportation for outpatient services to patients who are low-income and elderly and lack the ability to travel on their own.

We celebrate and salute our numerous sponsors and underwriters who make this event possible. The community support for this elegant event has a long-

term positive and compel-ling impact on the lives and health of individuals in our area.

Toledo Rotary awards Anne Grady Grant

Anne Grady’s activ-ity center is now state-of-the-art with a beautiful 60” high definition, flat screen television which was purchased along with a Blue-Ray disc player and a surround-sound sys-tem thanks to the Toledo Rotary Foundation. The individuals, as well as the parents and staff, are extremely grateful to the Toledo Rotary Foundation for this generous $3,000 donation. This entire set-up allows individuals to enjoy high definition mov-ies with rich sound. It is a welcome addition and can make any night, movie night. With a little popcorn and favorite beverage, the

activity center will become a crowd favorite.

Other individuals who do not live at the Center but are served by Anne Grady will also be able to take advantage of this fantastic sound and visu-al experience in a room setting that truly is stun-ning. The Toledo Rotary Foundation certainly has enabled Anne Grady to offer the individuals living at the Center a delightful leisure-time activity. Anne Grady truly appreciates the Toledo Rotary’s kind donation and thanks them for adding another oppor-

tunity for individuals with developmental disabilities to enhance their lives.

13th annual George Mancy Memorial Golf Outing raises funds for Anne Grady

The weather was blister-ing hot for 108 golfers who gathered for the remem-brance of former restaura-teur George Mancy. They celebrated at the 13th annual golf outing held at Whiteford Valley Golf Course.

Since it was a scram-ble, you didn’t have to be the world’s best golfer; but when it came to try-ing to make that hole-in-one to win the 2010 Chevy Camaro donated by the Yark Automotive Group, the competition heated up. The top-five winners of the golf tournament were Todd Esser’s team from Treu House of Munch; Aaron Bieszczad and his Waterford Bank team members; Marc Hall from

Subway and his team; Don Finnegan from TSL Ltd. and his team and OBM with Janine Golatka at the helm.

There were many door prizes and a 50/50 raffle and the evening ended up with a great steak dinner at Mancy’s Steakhouse where John Mancy, George’s twin brother, thanked Sharon Unkle and Lee English and all of the players for attending. He also prom-ised to keep the golf tour-nament going for such a good cause … the Anne Grady Center.

Anne Grady Services is a private non-profit agency providing multiple services to adults and children with developmental disabilities/special needs.

Please send all infor-mation to Pat Nowak, Sylvania Herald, 5700 Monroe St., Suite 406, Sylvania 43560, or e-mail to [email protected]. Please make sure to send information in time for publication deadlines.

Frank and Sharon Unkle, Lee English, and John Mancy share the day’s events at Mancy’s Steakhouse after a blistering day at the golf course.

The City of Sylvania’s annual “Beautiful front yards Awards” contest reports the winners and runners-up for 2010.

City mail carriers, on their designated routes, have been eyeing front yards since spring. The five most appealing and cared for were nominated by the mail carriers in August. A team of qualified judges then took over and selected a winner and runner up on each of the routes. The front yards were judged by a point system considering the lawn care and maintenance, front yard landscaping, floral additions, complimenting land-scape to the residence to include walks, walls, and added ameni-ties, and tidiness. Sylvanians generally keep their home grounds in good shape and appearance, so it’s a hard job to judge. This evokes an overall nice looking town and helps to keep real estate values up.

The winners and runners-up receive a certificate in the mail. Many are surprised that they were considered in the contest. The winners and runners-up are listed as follows:

The majestic 26 acre forest right in the middle of town is a retreat like non-other for all of us in the City of Sylvania. Have you visited your Harroun Community Park lately?

T H E T R A I L SYSTEM. The wander-ing one-and-one-half-mile trail system is a short stroll through a gentler time, with lots of wild flowers in season, natu-ral meadows, parallel-ing the Ten Mile Creek,

including the confluence of the North branch and Ottawa River.

N O T I C E A B L E FEATURES. Don’t miss the Promontory Point River Deck, 100 seat amphitheater, sky high gazebo, 35-foot tall wind chimes in the meadow, interpretive center shelter, board-walk, and maze. A recently added feature is the Lathrop House now being restored by the Metro Parks system.

W I L D L I F E ABOUNDS. The park also is home to many wild animal friends like the deer family, rac-coons, ground hogs, squirrels, rabbits, and many birds. The flora collection includes 25 varieties of trees, and the same number of dif-ferent wild flowers.

SELF GUIDED TOURS. Folders are usually on the info boards as you enter the park from South Main

Street and from the Harroun Road side. The folders are also available at the Parks and Forestry office at 8425 Sylvania Metamora Road in Sylvania, 419-885-8992.

H A R R O U N COMMUNITY PARK is open from dawn to dusk and is an excellent place to walk your dog. Dogs are allowed on a leash only, and owners must clean up dog droppings. Two doggy bag stations are in the park.

The Sight Center of Northwest Ohio will hold its 3rd Annual White Cane Walk on Saturday, October 2, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at The Sight Center. This event will provide much-need-ed resources to help de-liver services to people of all ages in our com-munity who are blind or visually impaired, and will increase awareness of the Ohio White Cane Law. An excerpt from this law appears below:

Ohio White Cane Law - 4511.47 Right-of-way of blind person.

“The driver of every vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to every blind pedestrian guided by a guide dog, or car-rying a cane which is predominantly white or metallic in color, with or without a red tip.”

Despite efforts to edu-cate drivers, many do not realize that they must yield the right-of-way to blind pedestrians on any public thoroughfare. The Sight Center is hopeful that increased awareness will help to save lives.

“It is our hope that the White Cane walk will raise awareness in the general public about is-sues facing people who are blind or visually impaired,” says Dawn Christensen, Executive Director of The Sight Center of Northwest Ohio. “This walk will not only give partici-pants the opportunity to

walk in another person’s shoes, but will also hope-fully open their eyes to the potential and possi-bilities.”

Participants will learn the basics of how to use a white cane and how to serve as a sighted guide to someone who is blind or visually impaired. Each participant will have an opportunity to use a white cane while walk-ing blindfolded through a ½ mile route around The Sight Center prop-erty with the assistance of a sighted guide part-ner. Additional hands-on activities, games, raffles items and demonstrations will be available.

This year The Sight Center is excited to hold the Carrabba’s Celebrity Lasagna Eating Chal-lenge, which will create awareness of the chal-lenges people who are blind and visually im-paired face when enjoy-ing even the simplest pleasures in life, such as eating a meal. Celeb-rity participants will be faced with the challenge of eating a three course meal blindfolded, using appropriate etiquette and proper eating utensils. The competition will be judged by a distinguished panel and will take place at Noon.

Registration for the event is $15 per person or $30 for a family of four. Participants can sign up at www.sightcentertole-do.org or in person at the event. Please call The Sight Center with ques-tions at 419-720-3937.

Achieve your bestAcademic Excellence • Outstanding Athletics • Christian Service • Men for Others

More than 70% of SJJ students participate in athletics. Earned City League All-Sports Trophy 28 out of 37 years.

Students at Highland Elementary School helped made it a record summer for reading, logging more than 356,000 reading minutes over the summer break. The effort was part of the Scholastic Summer Challenge program, which asked kids to log their summer reading minutes in an attempt to set a new world record for summer reading. More than 110,850 kids from more than 5,500 schools rep-resenting all 50 states in the U.S. and 120 countries world-wide smashed the world record for summer reading, logging a total of 52,710,368 reading minutes. The previous record set in 2009 was 35,846,094 minutes read.

Highland Elementary School is one of the top 20 schools that logged the most minutes and will there-fore be listed in the 2011 Scholastic Book of World Records, which will be avail-able through Scholastic Book Fairs, Scholastic Book Clubs and in bookstores nationwide in November 2010. On behalf of all the readers participat-ing in the Summer Challenge,

Scholastic is making a dona-tion of 50,000 new books to kids in need through Reading Is Fundamental, a children’s literacy non-profit.

We congratulate all the stu-dents who joined the Scholastic Summer Challenge and helped break the world record for summer reading,” said Francie Alexander, Chief Academic Officer, Scholastic. “We know that when kids read four or more books over the summer months, they go back to school ready to learn and excited to read books all year long.”

The Scholastic Summer Challenge was created to encourage all kids to read four or more books over the sum-mer and Read for the World Record, while at the same time helping them avoid the “Summer Slide,” a common loss of skills due simply to being out of school. The Scholastic Summer Challenge will be back next year with even more exciting books, activities and challenges. Don’t miss it!

Highland helps set world record for summer reading

This fall, Lourdes College’s Theater Vision arts education program launches its 26th sea-son with the following three dynamic and varied tales:

The Adventures of Har-old & the Purple Crayon – Thursday, October 14 The Adventures of Harold & the Purple Crayon shares the story of Harold who decides one fateful evening to go for a walk in the moonlight. As he sets out on his journey, Harold quickly realizes there is no moon in the night sky or a path to walk on. With the help of only a purple crayon, Harold draws not only the moon and walking path, but the world in which he wants to explore.

This new production by Enchantment Theatre takes audiences on an exciting and imaginative ride as Harold jets to Mars, joins a circus and meets a king in a wondrous garden. Using all the elements of its signature style, which combines life-size puppets, masks, magic and music, En-chantment’s production will delight and amaze audiences whose hearts are young and adventurous.

Duck for President, Fancy Nancy and Other Story Books – Tuesday, November 9 Seven delightful stories come to life in a new revue featuring mini-musicals based on the best-selling children’s books by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin. Performed by The-atreworks USA, America’s largest and most prolific pro-fessional not-for-profit theatre company, the five-member cast portrays dozens of char-acters and themes relevant to children in:

Babymouse, the Musical – Will the irresistible Baby-mouse win the lead in the school play?

Duck for President – Can a politically ambitious Duck

bring a new bill to Capitol Hill?

Fancy Nancy – Nancy teaches her family how to have a prodigious vocabulary and be fancy!

Leonardo, the Terrible Monster – Leonardo learns about the power of friendship.

I Have To Go! – Andrew insists that he doesn’t need to use the restroom, but once he’s zippered, snapped, buttoned and buckled in the backseat, he hears the call of nature.

Let’s Do Nothing! – fol-lows Frankie and Sal after they have played all of their games, read all their comic books and baked zillions of cookies. The two then face their biggest challenge: can two boys with overactive imaginations sit still for 10 seconds?

Pirates Don’t Change Dia-pers – Jeremy Jacob’s seafaring mates show up to claim a bur-ied treasure, only to wake his little sister. The whole piratical crew must go on babysitting patrol, or walk the plank!

Virtually Me! – Mon-day, November 15 Cyber-bullying and technology abuse have become significant issues students face today. Vir-tually Me! tackles these issues head-on in an entertaining new musical produced by Broad-way Actor and Television/Film Songwriter Matt Murphy. Per-formed by Theatreworks USA, Virtually Me! tells the story of characters Zeke, Chloe and Jasper.

Zeke’s blog TVZeke is all the rage at school. But when super-popular Lindsay uses the blog to make fun of an-other student, Zeke suddenly becomes mixed up in a cyber-bullying smear campaign that is hurtful to his friends and his reputation. Chloe is addicted to texting – and is in the know 24/7. Chloe should be studying for the algebra exam. But why study when your friends can

text you the answers? Accord-ing to his Facebook page, Jas-per has 5,000 friends and is a talented dancer. Can the virtual Jasper keep super-impressed Lindsay from finding out who he really is? Sometimes the most important part of logging on is knowing when to log off.

Each Theater Vision show plays at 10 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. For ticket information and availability please call 419-824-3986 or visit http://www.lourdes.edu/theater for more information.

Theater Vision provides curriculum-based theater arts education opportunities for school groups and home school students in pre-K through col-lege as well as for the public. Each season, more than two dozen performances are pre-sented by professional tour-ing companies in the 850-seat Franciscan Theatre. Over the lifetime of the program, more than half a million students have benefitted from Theater Vision programming.

By Judge RameySylvania Municipal Court

What is judicially mandated community service and how does it work? Judicially man-dated community service is a form of punishment that a judge can impose on sentenced offend-ers instead of or in addition to a jail sentence. Work is performed for community organizations approved by the court. Typically they are nonprofit agencies that can benefit from volunteer assis-tance. In Sylvania Municipal Court, some of the agencies used are Tam-O-Shanter, the Crissey Road Thrift Shop, the Sylvania Senior Center, and the Village of Holland.

Not all community orga-nizations feel they can benefit from community service in part because supervision is required to insure that the offender’s hours have been completed. Generally, most judicially man-dated community service work is performed within the terri-tory of the court district. This is not always practical if the offender does not live close to the court district and if transpor-tation is an issue. In some cases the Probation Department will contact the local court near the offender’s residence to find a suitable agency.

When is community service appropriate? It is used most often for nonviolent offenders when a fine and court costs are not suf-ficient, but a jail sentence is not appropriate. License violations such as driving under suspension or driving without a license are the most common charges for which community service is ordered in the Sylvania Municipal Court. Occasionally, community ser-vice can be ordered in addition to jail time usually as an alternative to a lengthier sentence.

In 2009, offenders performed

11,307 hours of community ser-vice for the Sylvania Municipal Court. When a judge has ordered an offender to complete com-munity service, the probation department will assign that per-son to a specific agency and schedule a date for completion of the hours. The agency is required to report to the probation depart-ment whether the offender has or has not completed the required hours. If the offender fails to complete the hours, the judge has the option to order the offender to jail as a probation violation or for contempt of court. The threat of jail is usually sufficient incentive to make sure the hours are completed, but unfortunately there are a number of offenders each year who receive a jail sen-tence they could have avoided because of failure to complete the hours. Jail space is limited and expensive for the communi-ty so it should not be used unless necessary. This makes commu-nity service a welcome option. It saves jail time for those who truly need it while providing for much needed assistance to agen-cies that could use the help.

The Sylvania Municipal Court is always interested in community service organiza-tions including churches who are interested in receiving judicially mandated community service assistance. The Probation depart-ment can be contacted at 419-885-8974.

Community service

In their book The Death and Life of American Journalism, Robert W. McChesney and John Nichols argue that jour-nalism is no longer commer-cially viable. Their definition of journalism differs a bit from the conception that all media is a form of journalism, as their characterization is more NPR than the Huffington Post. That NPR type of independent jour-nalism, they suggest, no longer finds a place in the profitable business model of running a media outlet.

There has been ample evi-dence of their assertion over recent years. Newspapers are closing, news bureaus are being shut down, staffs are being reduced, and the most profit-able elements of the media are talking heads with explosive opinions and TMZ. That is not to say great journalism doesn’t still exist. It does, it’s just more difficult to find.

Strong, independent journal-

ism still appears in most of our many media choices, it’s just not necessarily the dominant force anymore. CNN will do a good story that adheres to ethical principles and fairness, but they’ll spend more time and resources doing a story on the cast of Jersey Shore or a crazy pastor in Florida because that gets better ratings. In turn, aggressively partisan political coverage gets better ratings than objective coverage. That is why the two partisan networks, Fox and MSNBC, get better rat-ings than the one that proclaims itself as bipartisan, CNN.

In their book, McChesney and Nichols expand on that reality by interpreting the huge

success of Fox News. “In many respects the great

contribution of Fox News was not to demonstrate the commer-cial viability of a more aggres-sively partisan approach to the news; it was in demonstrat-ing that when one went more aggressively partisan, it was easier to dispense with actual (and costly) journalism because viewers focused on celebrity hosts and political operatives who peddled spin for free. The specialty of these channels is to take a particular story and blow it into a huge topic, generat-ing tremendous heat but little light.”

That model of heat but little light dominates TV and the internet, but not necessar-ily newspapers. Newspapers are not timely; they just aren’t anymore, no matter how you define “timely.” As such, their contribution to the national conversation of right now is minimal. Their strengths are

two things: going in-depth and staying local.

The big newspapers that are still spending resources to send a reporter on assignment and fund a lengthy, thorough, inves-tigative story are to be praised. It is becoming harder and hard-er to produce these types of stories but many newspaper are still doing so.

That’s the type of journal-ism McChesney and Nichols were referring to, and although it is not nearly as commercially viable as it once was, it is still alive for now. How it will con-tinue to adapt remains to be seen, but if there continues to be a demand then the supply will find a way.

The other strength that newspapers have is locality. Newspapers can bring you the news from your backyard com-plete with photos of faces you know, quotes from neighbors, and updates on events you’re involved in. Community news-papers have been playing up their sense of “hyper-locality” lately and with good reason.

That’s the category The Sylvania Herald falls into. We don’t have the resources of the Blade, nor do we have the partisan edge that other media outlets have, despite what a few past opinion columns may suggest. The Sylvania Herald is your community newspaper, and our goal is to put your world in print form and mail it to you once a week. This has turned out to be possible not because of our success, but because Sylvania is a great city. Area businesses respect and value Sylvania and they want your eyes and ears.

The Sylvania Herald’s job is to make sure you’re read-ing this newspaper. We try to print as much quality local news as we can get our hands on. A community newspaper works best when its readers are actively involved, so your voice is needed. We respect and appreciate all contact, emails, story ideas, photos, letters to the editor; anything that is relevant to Sylvania, please send it in.

The Sylvania Herald is adapting to the changing nature of journalism and finding a way to make local news commer-cially viable. A large part of this adaption is our heavy reli-ance on reader submissions and reader-generated content. With your help, this trend will con-tinue and Sylvania will have a successful newspaper to reflect the lives and happenings of one of Ohio’s best hometowns.

Congratulations to the Sylvania Senior Center on receiving National Accreditation from the National Institute of Senior Centers. Only about 1% of the 15,000 senior centers in America have been so recognized.

Accreditation is based on excellence in nine areas: purpose, community col-laboration, program plan-ning, evaluation, financial management, governance, a d m i n i s t r a t i o n / h u m a n resources, record keeping, and facility.

The Sylvania Senior Center has been in operation for 32 years – 24 of which were in the basement of the old Burnham Building. The last eight years have been in their beautiful new building on Sylvania Avenue next to Tam O-Shanter.

The City of Sylvania reached out for help and received financial support from the State of Ohio Capital Improvements Fund, the Lucas County Area Office on Aging and Sylvania Township to join in paying for the Center’s construction. Bonds issued by the City are being paid down by regular payments from the City and the Township.

Prior to authorizing con-struction, the City required a senior operating levy be approved by Sylvania City and Township voters to

support the ongoing opera-tion of the Center. The .32 mil levy was passed 10 years ago, was renewed 5 years ago, and is now on the general election bal-lot again for renewal this November.

The Senior Center annu-ally serves nearly 3,000 area seniors, and about 250 on a daily basis. The pro-grams it offers help seniors remain independent in their homes, decreases isolation and provides transportation. Programming includes health and wellness, edu-cation opportunities, out-reach, supportive services and recreation.

Our award-wining Senior Center is an asset to the Sylvania community. The Center improves the quality of life for our senior citi-zens, while at the same time making our community more desirable and keeping our property values higher. I support the renewal of the Senior Center operat-ing levy, and hope that you consider doing so as well.

Senior Center congratulationsFrom the mayor’s Desk

Sylvania residents val-ue education and expect students to experience a rigorous curriculum, meaningful learning ac-tivities, and skilled and caring educators. The ac-tive involvement and fi-nancial support from the community enables Syl-vania Schools to provide a vibrant, well-rounded educational program that prepares students to be successful in college and the workforce.

On November 2, we are asking the community to approve Issue 3, a 4.9 mill operating levy that will preserve the quality of the educational experience for students. This levy will be used for curricu-lum materials, textbooks, technology equipment, personnel costs, supplies, and utilities. The cost for a homeowner of a $100,000 house is approximately $150 per year.

The last operating levy was passed in 2004. Through cost contain-ment measures such as centralized purchasing, consortium buying, and strict human resource management guidelines, the district has stretched the 2004 operating levy six years.

The economic down-turn has impacted school districts across Ohio. De-creases in state funding and lower property values have had a negative im-pact on Sylvania Schools. The district is facing a $9 million deficit in June 2012. To address this defi-cit, a combination of new revenue and additional

belt-tightening is needed. Since August 2009, the district has made $5 mil-lion in budget cuts in the areas of personnel, cur-riculum, technology, pro-fessional development, and building/department accounts. Last spring 45 positions were eliminated. Failure to pass the operat-ing levy in November will result in further across-the-board reductions in programs and services.

A question that some community members are asking me: Why does the district need money when we just passed a levy in 2008? The 2008 levy was a bond issue. Operating levies and bond issues create separate categories of funding. Bond issues like the one passed by Sylvania residents in 2008 are used to fund school construction and renova-tion projects and cannot be used to pay for daily operating expenses.

The remarkable achievements of Sylvania students and staff create a sense of pride throughout the community. Passage of Issue 3 will ensure that Sylvania Schools contin-ue to provide a meaning-ful and memorable expe-rience for students.

The Week Ahead: September 26 through October 2, 2010

Aries (March 21-April 19)This week you may find yourself

feeling restless and wanting a change of scenery. If you can’t get away for a couple of days, find another way to satisfy this need. Take a walk or go for a drive. Clear your mind and allow yourself to return to a state of balance.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)Take time this week to do some

writing. In doing so, you will gain a better perspective about what you are really feeling and experiencing. Remember the journey of knowing yourself starts with the courage to take a look on and inside and feel your truth.

Gemini (May 21-June 21)You’re constantly shifting between

emotions and logic, going back and forth from one to the other. Stop and take a deep breath and realize you need both. Allow your emotional self to balance with your logical self and life will feel much more stable and productive.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)Feelings of frustration may run

high this week due to miscommunica-tion with the people around you. Do your best to listen to what is really being said. Operating from this space of mindfulness will help create deeper understanding with your friends and family.

Leo (July 23-August 22)Lately, you have been feeling over-

whelmed by work and very much in need of a break. But instead of running away, take time to focus on what’s really going on. See yourself releasing the desire to control things and trust they will work out for the best.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)Your patience will be tested this

week as you find yourself in tough situations with people you love. Don’t make decisions that aren’t for your highest good. It’s ok to say “No” and never let guilt be your guide into say-ing “Yes.”

Libra (September 23-October 22)This week you may be feeling

frustrated and misunderstood by friends and family. It’s like you are talking but no one is listening to your

words. When this happens, don’t take it personally. Simply realize that some people processes information differ-ently than you.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

Pay close attention to the actions of your co-workers this week and don’t be afraid to speak your mind. Now is an ideal time to clear up old issues that you have been hanging onto for a long time. By releasing them, you will physically feel better too.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

It’s important to be honest with people, but also to be mindful of the way you are communicating your thoughts and feelings. Use caution when letting them know you disagree. Remember to honor their feelings with the same respect you want for your-self.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Money issues come into focus because someone has not been honest with you. Have a heart to heart talk and ask why they have felt the need to be dishonest. If you can take the time to listen and understand, you will release the anger for their actions.Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

Take some time to rest during the week. Your body may be telling you to slow down but your mind wants to go full speed ahead. Recognize the importance of balancing your energy. When you listen to your body, you will feel more grounded and healthy.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)You will experience a surge of

energy this week that could leaving you feeling a bit scattered. Find a way to stay grounded and not allow yourself to get caught up in negative emotions. Remember that balance is the key to all things that need to be understood.

Lourdes College was one of only 14 institutions nation-wide selected for the Unites States Election Assistance Commission’s Help America Vote College Program. As part of the program, Lourdes was awarded $34,783 for the first year of a three year project in which we will partner with the Lucas County Board of Elec-tions to assist with the training and mobilization of the more than 1,400 poll workers who are needed to serve our metro-politan area.

Lourdes is currently iden-tifying its student participants who will be trained to serve as poll workers during the 2010 federal election this Novem-ber. Students participating in

the project will also receive credit for fulfilling the service-learning component of their coursework.

“We are looking forward to partnering with the Lucas County Board of Elections and establishing a thriving tradi-tion of election participation on campus,” shares Dr. Stephanie Anderson Quinn, Academic Counselor for TRiO and Proj-ect Coordinator. “Poll worker shortages are not uncommon during election season – in 2008, nearly half of all juris-dictions across the country re-ported difficulty recruiting poll workers during the election cycle. The establishment of this program on Lourdes’ campus will provide on-going assis-

tance to our local community.”For more information please

contact Dr. Anderson Quinn at 419-824-3681 or email [email protected]. Stay up to date on Lourdes’ student prog-ress on the campaign by visit-ing the online blog at lourdes-votes.wordpress.com.

The United States Elec-tion Assistance Commission (EAC) was established by the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA). The EAC is an inde-pendent, bipartisan commis-sion charged with developing guidance to meet HAVA re-quirements, adopting voluntary voting system guidelines and serving as a national clearing-house of information on elec-tion administration.

Soon after the first of the year, our PE teacher at Tim-berstone Jr. High, Kelly Heil, came to my teaching partner and I one afternoon and in-quired as to whether or not we were up for a challenge. As soon to be 50-year-old wom-en, our response was, “What kind of a challenge?”

Kelly asked if we would be interested in competing in the Sylvania Women’s Triath-lon scheduled for August 1. Our immediate response was, “No! Are you crazy?”

As time went on, Kelly’s persistence, competitive na-ture, and constant encourage-ment became contagious and eventually convinced us and several others in our building (14) to commit to entering the race. This endeavor seemed like quite a feat for many of us at first because we’ve nev-er competed in anything like this before.

Some of us exercise on a regular basis, some occasion-ally, while others not at all; until this last month. Kelly emailed each of us a train-ing plan/schedule that would

prepare us for the day of the triathlon. Our intense train-ing began at 7 a.m. on July 6 with a 500-yard swim and continued for many weeks thereafter.

The first day of swimming was overwhelming and it took the majority of us almost 45 minutes to complete. Leav-ing us gasping for air while water flooded every orifice in our bodies, we trudged along and managed to show up the next day.

After several days of prac-ticing strokes and breathing techniques, it was now time to advance to the next level. Our daily workouts contin-ued as we would swim, ride bikes, and/or run (walk) the trails. Each day we gained the strength, endurance, and the confidence we needed to

say to ourselves, “We CAN do this!”

Training with friends and colleagues has brought us closer together as a staff and has allowed us to broaden our social circle and meet people outside our building. With only 3 days remaining we can honestly say we’ve worked hard and had lots of fun! The Timberstone Tri-Peeps would like to thank Kelly for her or-ganization and leadership in this worthwhile endeavor. We are all up for this challenge and now realize this race will give us a “take charge” feel-ing. We are role models for our own children, our spous-es, and our students. We have learned so much about each other and have gained our own sense of personal accom-plishment.

WEDNESDAY, September 22, 2010 THE SYLVANIA HERALD SYLVANIA HISTORYBy Gayleen Gindy

Time travel would be great wouldn’t it? If time travel were possible some would want to go ahead and see what’s in store for them in the future. But I would go back in time. To see, look and observe what it was like to live in Sylvania years ago. I would observe things much different than the average citizen; looking at details, and noticing things that nobody else notices. I would take mental pictures of the properties and struc-tures, as well as photographs of important things; knowing that in time things would definitely change.

Let’s take the four cor-ners of Main and Monroe for instance. I could take each corner and write a book on the people who owned each of these corner lots, include history about the structures that occupied the properties, the changes that were made over the years, things and events that occurred on the property to make it important to the history of the commu-nity, and how it got to where it is today.

Taking the southwest cor-ner of Main and Monroe, where Speedway is located, here’s some of the informa-tion I found on this prop-erty.

The Marathon Oil Company struck a deal in 1963 to purchase the wooden commercial building that was located for approximately 130 years, on the southwest corner of Main and Monroe (along with the two resi-dential homes to the west). This oil company planned to demolish what was probably one of the first structures to have been constructed in Sylvania. They decided that downtown Sylvania needed another modern gas and ser-vice station. Over these years, the service station structures have changed on this corner, but the main business here has been gasoline sales since 1963. Hundreds of people today get their gasoline, cof-fee and other necessary items at the Speedway on this cor-ner of Sylvania, and it serves Sylvania well.

But, prior to 1963 this property had an entirely dif-ferent purpose. Going back in time we find Dr. Amos Minor purchasing the prop-erty in the 1830s from the founder of the “Town of Sylvania,” Judge William Wilson. Dr. Minor was probably the one who built the two-story wood struc-ture seen in the first photo of this story. He probably moved his family into the second-story of this struc-ture at first, and worked to establish his doctor’s office at this corner. In order to help feed his family of ten, he owned various other prop-erties across the valley, and soon built a home on the east side of Summit Street along the Ten Mile Creek. This opened up the second floor of his structure here on the corner for his grow-ing medical profession, now that a couple of his sons had taken up the medical prac-tice as well. Dr. Minor died in 1854 and family records say that he had served as a physician in Sylvania for 20 years, and that his practice extended over nearly all of Lucas County.

Beginning in 1839 Dr. Amos Minor was paid by the trustees of Sylvania Township for medical visits and medicine for the poor. You see, each community was responsible for seeing that their under privileged residents were taken care of. At the 1840 census Dr. Minor was listed as the head of the household, with his wife and six others living in the same household in Sylvania. In 1844 he was elected presi-dent of the Sylvania High School Company; the first group to organize and estab-lish what became the first public school in the com-munity; while his daughter Alcy Minor was being paid to teach in the local school district as well. Meetings to establish the school were probably held in Dr. Minor’s building here at this corner, since he was the president. Also in 1844, for tax purpos-es, Sylvania Township lists Amos Miner as a physician. By the 1850 census he and his wife were both listed as

61 years old, and his occu-pation was listed as physi-cian. In 1846 the property and structure at this corner was transferred to his son, George B. Minor. George owned the property for ten years before selling in 1856 to William F. Dewey; a large land owner in Sylvania at that time.

Two years later, in 1858, George F. Moore, a 22 year old resident of Sylvania, purchased this corner prop-erty and started operating a grocery store in this corner building. Locally, a murder had just occurred a few years before, within 100 feet of this corner property. A resi-dent murdered his wife, and in an attempt to cover-up the murder, he burned her body in his cooking stove. But, George knew that Sylvania was still a safe community and decided to set up his shop here. A year later, in 1859, he sold half interest in the property and business to his brother Peter Valentine Moore. In 1860 when the census taker canvassed Sylvania residents for their information, he recorded Peter V. Moore working as a grocer, at the age of 27 years old, and his brother George F. Moore working as a farm-er at the age of 24 years old. Both were married; while Peter and Mary had a 10 month old daughter, George and Jane did not have any children yet. No one knew that in just one short year, the United States would become involved in a war that would last for four long years.

Peter V. Moore operated the store in this building, while his brother George farmed and sold his produce here at their store; both still owning half interest in the business. On 4-20-1863 the Sylvania Township Board of Education paid Moore & Brothers for repairs at one of the schools, and on 4-8-1864 the Board of Education paid Peter V. Moore for repairs he made at one of the schools. As the Civil War raged on, in early 1864 President Lincoln put out a desperate plea for all available volun-teers. Peter agreed to vol-unteer, joining as a Private with the 130th Regiment Co.

G Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He entered service on 5-2-1864 at the age of 32 years old. He served until he was mustered out on 9-1-1864. George worked hard to keep up with it all, while Peter was away for his agreed upon 100 day volunteer ser-vice, but between the two of them, and their wives, all of this took a huge toll on their health, and when Peter returned it was a great relief for to them all.

According to the 12-12-1867 meeting minutes of the Sylvania Township Board of Education, the board was holding their meetings “over the store of Peter V. Moore.” At this time the Village of Sylvania had just been annexed from the boundaries of Sylvania Township, and with this came a separate Village Board of Education. These meetings, being held above this store, were to discuss the separation of the two school boards, and relinquishing property they owned that was now in the village of Sylvania.

By 1870 George Moore had purchased a consider-able amount of farm land on the south side of Monroe Street, just west of the rail-road tracks, (yes the same railroad tracks that exist today). But times got bad for the Moore family starting in 1870; and death hit this family hard. George died

first, in January of 1870 at the age of 35, and when the census taker came around to count and list the residents, George’s 30 year old widow was raising four children on her own, ages 9, 8, 5 and 2 years old. Brother Peter was doing what he could to help his sister-in-law, and worked hard at the grocery store, still located here at this corner. Then death hit again, later that same year. George’s widow, Jane, died at the young age of 30 years. This left young Maggie – 9 years old; Adeline – 8 years; Freddie – 5 years old; and little two year old Jennie, without any parents.

Brother Peter and his wife Mary took in George’s kids; adding George and Jane’s four children, to their own four children, who at the 1870 census were listed at ages 10, 8, 6 and three years old. They now had eight children to feed, while Peter continued to operate the gro-cery store at this corner.

Sylvania village council minutes dated 3-18-1870 said that Peter Moore pre-sented a petition asking per-mission to place a set of Fairbanks Scales in front of his store on Ottawa Street (Monroe Street). Council granted this request, and we can assume that the scale was placed. This scale could be used by the entire com-munity, as every occupation

of every industry had a need for the scale.

After George died, Peter worked hard to keep up with the business, and it all took a toll on his health. Peter died in 1872 at the age of 40 years of age. Two years later Peter’s wife Mary Jane died, now leaving the eight children as orphans. This corner property was tied up in a court battle, while each estate tried to work out the estate of all these minor chil-dren. Finally the building transferred into the names of the children of both Peter V. and George Moore, listed under Harry A. Moore, the oldest male, with the nota-tion et. al, meaning “any and all others.”

The two Moore estates continued to own the prop-erty from 1874 until 1891, and the property was rented out and occupied by Root’s hardware store, during this time, while the second floor was also rented out and became the meeting place for our local Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.). This was a group of veterans of the Civil War who gath-ered for weekly and monthly meetings on the second floor, along with their counterparts the Women’s Relief Corp (W.R.C.). Between these two groups, activity in this

building was kept constant. If you walked by the build-ing on any given evening, there could be heard the sounds of music, talking and laughter floating from within the building walls from the parties, fund rais-ers and meetings that they held. And around the rear of the building you could again hear laughter and the crack-ling of wood burning as the veterans, and their families, often gathered around a great bonfire to hear stories about the Great War and ghosts of years past. Each year the G.A.R. and W.R.C. would all prepare for the events of the annual Memorial Day celebration in Sylvania. Veterans assembled at this hall before they paraded to the local cemeteries, where they would decorate the graves of their old comrades and listen to patriotic addresses in the depot grove, located where Southbriar shopping complex is today.

In April of 1887 the Moore children almost lost this building during the great Sylvania fire. But quick thinking residents saved the building, as well as the other buildings along the south side of Monroe Street. The west side of Main Street in downtown Sylvania was on

fire. The fire started in a build-ing in the middle of the block and spread in both directions. The entire block was quickly gobbled up by the flames, including the wooden side-walks. As the fire destroyed the wooden structures, one by one, residents feared that the fire was going to get to the south end of the Division Street (Main Street), and the fire would jump across the narrow dirt road, then known as Ottawa Street, and destroy the buildings on the southwest corner of Main and Monroe also. So, these quick think-ing residents began tearing

down “Pop” Polly’s saloon, located at the south end of the main block to prevent the fire from spreading across the street. Their plan worked and the structure went on to serve Sylvania for many more years.

Frank Lamont came to Sylvania in 1888 and started renting this corner building, and opened up a jewelry store as well as selling cameras, etc. Three years later in 1891 he purchased the building from the Moore family children and continued in his busi-ness. He operated here until 1910, while also operating the post office at this location for

about four of the years, serv-ing as Sylvania’s postmaster. Mr. Lamont continued rent-ing out the second floor to the local G.A.R. and W.R.C. A September, 1892 issue of the Sylvania Weekly Times, “….invites all Comrades to headquarters, as business of great importance to the Post will be presented; do not fail to be present comrades.” And the following was also reported: “Camp Fire Notes – Wednesday a camp fire and entertainment at the G.A.R. hall. The following program was rendered in a very able manner and was well received by the large number present. Opening song: America; reci-tation by: Jimmy Stone; Song by: Sarah Adsit; recitation by: Vern Seager; Song: Tramp, Tramp. Following this excel-lent program was a debate on the subject of: should women be debarred from voting…” The G.A.R. and W.R.C. rent-ed the second floor of this building until 1895.

Frank Lamont operated his

business on the first floor until about 1910, when records show that he went to Arizona for his health. According to a 1904 newspaper titled “The Toledo Critic” Frank Lamont was one of the leading busi-ness men of Sylvania in 1904. At the age of 17 years he started studying and learn-ing the jeweler’s trade and came to Sylvania in 1888 and entered into the business for himself. He used his spare time studying to be an opti-cian and after five years hard study and work he success-fully passed all examinations and received his diploma as an expert optician. He then took up photography and also handled a fine line of Kodaks and cameras, besides being a fine photographer for inside and outside work.

When the census taker came around on June 1st, 1900 he found Frank Lamont operating as an optician here and listed him as 33 years old. Wife Marie was 30 years old, and they had two children, but only Beulah, age 11, was still living at home. An advertise-ment in the 9-9-1910 issue of the Sylvania Sentinel now lists the business as “Eddie Lamont, Jeweler.” And the 7-25-1912 Sylvania Sentinel advertised “E. Lamont, Your Jeweler.” Eddie was either a brother or son who took over the business after Frank left Sylvania, but Eddie was only here for a couple years.

After the Lamont Jewelers vacated the structure, in about 1913, Andrew and Mary Reger purchased what had become known as the Lamont build-ing. Andrew was a long-time shoe salesman in Sylvania and owned a building to the west of this building, where for years he had operated his shoe business, selling and repairing shoes. Andrew died in 1916, and his wife Mary died in 1918, and then on 2-26-1919 the property trans-ferred to their daughter Edna C. Reger-Wickter. It was during this time (1913) that the building became occu-pied by a restaurant known as the American Restaurant and Confectionery, operated by J.J. Goets. Then, sometime before 1917 the Sylvania Restaurant took over, because according to the Sylvania Sentinel dated 1-26-1917: “The Sylvania Restaurant is again open for business. The building has been overhauled and repaired and is in fine shape. The interior is neatly arranged and attractive. Sam Hillas and Mike Kallas, a couple of enterprising men are in charge, and with plenty of experience in that line of work are prepared to furnish meals to the hungry that will

satisfy.” It was about this same time in 1917 that a one-story addition was added to the west side of the building, where Hasty Boiler Works operated for a period of time.

On 4-28-1919 John Redding, Jr., purchased the building. John rented the first floor to various indi-viduals, including Preston Randall who operated a dry goods store here for a short time, then after that a mil-linery business occupied the building. Then Ashley Vesey opened up an A & P gro-cery store here until 1928. Mr. Redding also converted the upstairs into living space while he owned it, and rented it out to various families.

In 1927 two real estate men from Toledo by the names of Leon Smith and Herman Rassel purchased the building, with plans to sell the property for a profit. An arti-cle in the Sylvania Sentinel reported on the plans for the property, including the demo-lition of the current structures, and construction of three store rooms and an “up-to-date modern fireproof hotel, including a dining room.” But, the deal fell through, and in 1927 Don K. White announced the opening of a new barbershop in the small one-story portion of the build-ing at 6603 Monroe Street. Later after Mr. White vacated this portion of the building, C. Earle Smith repaired gen-eral household appliances here and then Elmer Cline rented the one-story portion of the building to operate his electrical shop, where he also provided electrician servic-es. The two-story portion of the building was rented to Jack Marmar, who operated

his already established Ohio Tailor Shop at this location. The 10-20-1927 Sylvania Sentinel reported: “The Ohio Tailor Shop, corner of Main and Monroe street, has added a line of gent’s furnishings to his stock. The store has been remodeled and J. Marmar, proprietor is announcing its opening.”

Even though Smith and Rassel sold the building in October of 1930 to Arthur H. Gerwin, Jack Marmar continued to rent the build-ing from him. When the depression years hit, Mr. Gerwin lost the building and the property transferred to the “Superintendent of Banks” in 1936, but Jack was able to continue his tailor shop business here throughout the depression, and finally in 1943 the Marmar family purchased the building and continued operating Ohio Tailor Shop, while living on the second floor. In 1949 Mrs. Henry Pelton managed “The Clothes Closet” at this address. On 12-7-1949 the Marmar’s sold the building to Homer & Lillian Knisely. They converted the build-ing into a dry cleaning plant, using the second floor as part of their business and calling it Homer Knisely Kleaners. They stayed at this location until the early 1960s and were the last to occupy the structure. The wrecking ball came in 1963, and as can be seen in the second photo, this once “heart of our town” was reduced to a pile of rubble, and the rest is history.

Don’t get me wrong. Progress is good. I just like to research and share stories of the days gone by. It fasci-nates me.

Gangsters come to Sylvania The Drabik Family

History Group is pleased to announce the submis-sion of an application in late September 2010 to the Ohio Historical Society for a marker to honor Alexander Drab-ik. Sergeant Drabik was the first Allied soldier in Nazi Germany east of the Rhine River during World War II.

Alexander Albert Drabik was born to polish immigrants, John Drabik and Frances Lewandows-ki Drabik from Szym-broze, Hohensalze, Ger-many, on Dec. 28, 1910 in a log cabin at present-day 9336 Wolfinger Road in Sylvania Township, OH. The youngest son of 14 children, he attended Dorr Street Elementary School in Springfield Township.

An ordinary man who worked as a meat cutter, he enlisted in the United States Army in October, 1942. Fighting in the Battle of the Bulge, he was wounded on Dec. 17, 1944, in Breitfeld, Belgium, and he received the Purple Heart on Jan-uary 23, 1945. On March 7, 1945, Sergeant Drab-ik led 10 soldiers from

Company A of the 27th Armored Infantry Battal-ion of the 9th Armored Division across the Lu-dendorff railroad bridge in Remagen, Germany to the east side of the Rhine River. Realizing that the bridge was ready for de-molition, he and his men ran through heavy ma-chine gun, small arms and direct 20mm gun fire. Artillery shells and two explosions complicated the crossing, but Drabik and the soldiers contin-ued across the bridge. He cleared the bridge towers of snipers and demoli-tion crews. Despite ma-chine gun fire and shell fire, he eradicated snip-ers and gun crews posi-tioned along the Rhine bank and cliffs.

Sergeant Alexander Drabik was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross on March 27, 1945, for “extraordinary hero-ism in action against the enemy” and “unflinching valor.” His actions and leadership are signifi-cant for he contributed to the installation of the first bridgehead across the Rhine River, short-ened the war and saved 50,000 lives. Alexander

Drabik was the first sol-dier of an invading army to cross the Rhine River since the days of Julius Caesar and the Roman Republic.

The family dedication of the Ohio Historical Society marker is tenta-tively scheduled for Sun-day, May 8, 2011, VE Day. Family, friends and the public will be wel-come to attend the cer-emony and reception.

The Drabik Family History Group is an in-formal association of the descendants of John Drabik and Frances Le-wandowski Drabik and Valentine Drabik and Eva Dybalski Drabik. Founded in 2008, its pur-pose is to share genea-logical information and to remember its most fa-mous relative.

For information on contributions to the Drabik OHS Marker Fund, contact Jacqueline Konwinski at 419-882-5045 or [email protected].

Alexander Drabik In February 1930, Pretty Boy Floyd and his gang chose the Farmers & Merchants Bank of Sylvania for their latest robbery. They got about $2000, but they missed out on negotiable Liberty Bonds, jewelry, and about $20,000 in cash when they were outwitted by their Sylvania victims.

Here’s what happened. Floyd and his accomplic-es entered the bank (now Key Bank on the corner of Main and Monroe). After announcing the holdup, they herded the 11 cus-tomers and employees together. One woman removed several valuable rings from her hands, hid-ing them in her mouth so the robbers couldn’t get them. The bank cashier had immediately set the time lock on the bank vault, protecting the bulk of the bank holdings. The gang beat up the cashier, but they were unable to gain entry to the vault.

Meanwhile, at the fill-ing station across the street, the owner (who was also the vice president of

the bank) saw the victims with their hands in the air. Realizing a robbery was in progress, he phoned the operator, who arranged for Sylvania’s electric fire alarm to be sounded.

The robbers fled. The bank V.P. fired at them, but missed. The top of a nearby vehicle was shot up, but no bystanders were injured. A constable and his deputy chased them in the village fire truck, but Pretty Boy Floyd and his men got away. Can you just imagine that chase scene, with the fire hose uncoiling and wav-ing madly as the Sylvania fire truck sped down the street? They robbed three more places in the Toledo area in the next month . . . the Midwest was a fertile target for these gangsters, apparently.

Floyd was arrested in May for an unrelat-ed shooting and murder

of a policeman, and was later connected to the bank robbery. He was booked and sentenced in November, 1930, to 12 to14 years at state prison in Columbus, OH. But en route to the prison, he escaped by breaking his handcuffs and jump-ing out the window of the moving train.

But do not think his life of crime paid off for Pretty Boy Floyd. In 1934, after more sprees of thievery and murders, Floyd was chased down by the police. He was shot and killed on the spot, at age 30.

You may have heard of his involvement in the Kansas City Massacre in 1933, but now you know about Charles Arthur Floyd’s Sylvania caper.

Lots more fun history awaits you at the Sylvania Heritage Museum at 5717 N. Main. Open Wednesdays from 3-7 pm and Saturday and Sunday from 1-4 pm. Learn more at www.sylvaniahistory.org, or call the Sylvania Area Historical Society at 419-318-9632.

Maumee improves to 3-1 overall, while Northview fell to 2-2.

The Wildcats had shown they were able to move the football, however, and one positive sign had been the kickoff returns by senior Zach Crampton. Crampton had three returns covering 71 yards, so the Wildcats began using him more in their offen-sive schemes.

After Downing completed a 9-yard pass to senior wide receiver Tyler Schinharl, Crampton had consecu-tive runs of 13 and 7 yards. The third quarter ended with Northview at the Maumee 33, but the Wildcat’s drive did not end there.

A 3-yard run by junior Josh Davis, a five-yard run by, believe it or not, 5-foot-6, 240 pound senior Brian Mignin (normally an offen-sive lineman), a 12-yard pass from Downing to senior Jake Martinez, and a 2-yard run by Crampton got Northview to the Maumee 11.

Downing then found Martinez again in the back corner of the end zone for an 11-yard scoring pass with 9:33 remaining.

The Wildcats chose to go

for two points during the con-version so they could be down by two potential”touchdowns, 24-8. The conversion worked as Downing found Hirschfeld wide open cutting across the end zone.

Northview did not call it quits. Downing completed two passes, a 13-yarder to senior tight end Jacob Sturt, an 11-yarder to Crampton, and a 26-yarder to Schinharl. Along with a 15-yard rough-ing the passer penalty the Wildcats were suddenly in the red zone again, this time facing a first down at the Maumee seven-yard line.

As 6:23 showed on the clock, Downing’s next pass was intercepted by Phenix in the end zone, and Northview would never get the football back.

For Northview, Downing completed 7-of-19 passes for 94 yards, but the three inter-ceptions hurt.

Crampton had 11 carries for 44 yards, Hirschfeld had 43 yards on seven carries, Davis had 16 yards on four carries, Hall had two yards on one carry, and Downing had minus-four yards on three carries. Downing also punted five times for an average of 38.4 per kick, including his longest of 44 yards.

Wildcats(Continued from page 1)

Senior Ja’Darian Bowers (21) rushed for 86 yards and two touchdowns in Southview’s win against Anthony Wayne. Southview opened Northern Lakes League play by dominating Anthony Wayne last Friday.

The Cougars accumulated 420 yards of total offense, including 166 on the ground. Southview (4-0, 1-0 NLL) reached the end zone on passing plays of 55 and 34 yards and on running plays of 17, 81, and 21 yards. Seniors De’Nard Pinckney and David Vandercook continued to excel as they alternate at quarterback. Pinckney had 118 yards of offense, including 96 rushing and two touchdowns. Vandercook had 147 yards, with 141 passing yards, and two touchdowns.

You may have heard that moderate drinking can fit into a sensible health plan. It may be beneficial in reducing or preventing certain conditions, such as diabetes, stress, depression, poor cognition, and heart ailments such as hyper-tension, peripheral artery disease, and high blood pressure. Drinking may also help prevent aging ef-fects. Part of the reason is due to alcohol, offers Dr. Mehmet Oz, and most of the reason is the resveratrol that‚Äôs found in grape skins, and thus red wines. Some also surmise that moderate alcohol can fend off the common cold. How-ever, too much alcohol can put you at risk for adverse health consequences.

Moderate drinking is de-

fined as one to two drinks per day, depending upon sex and age. Women and individuals older than 65 should limit alcohol to one drink per day. A drink is 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80 proof distilled spirits. Sav-ing up your daily alcohol allowances and indulging on a Saturday night is not healthy. Too much alcohol can contribute to liver prob-lems, impaired judgement, thoughts of suicide, and a host of other problems.

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Al-coholism (NIAAA) reports that moderate drinkers have the greatest longev-ity. Drinking may be most beneficial to the heart. It reduces heart disease risk by 40 to 60 percent. This

is important because car-diovascular disease is the No. 1 cause of death in the United States, and heart disease kills about one mil-lion Americans each and every year.

The best-known effect of alcohol is a small increase in HDL cholesterol. Other properties present may pre-vent inflammation of arter-ies and also promoting bet-ter blood flow. Alcoholic beverages may prevent platelets in the blood from sticking together. That may reduce clot forma-tion and reduce the risk of a heart attack or a stroke.

Always consult with a doctor before modifying your diet for health pur-poses. Alcohol may inter-act with some prescriptions you are taking.

Eat, drink and be healthy: how moderate alcohol use can be good for youDid you know that 80 per-

cent of all strokes are prevent-able? That figure, from the National Stroke Association, illustrates just how important it is that you know the steps nec-essary to prevent a stroke from affecting your life. What might surprise you is that many of those steps are lifestyle sug-gestions you’ve heard before - they just have the added ben-efit of helping to ward off a stroke.

In honor of May being Stroke Awareness Month, Life Line Screening wants to share the list of lifestyle changes that can help aid in stroke preven-tion and to remind you that a preventive stroke screening can help you identify your par-ticular risk factors. Knowing exactly how you can protect yourself from a stroke - which affects approximately 800,000 Americans each year - may in-spire you to take action.

Many people are taking the steps to improve the qual-ity of their lives. Even though the modifications can be dif-ficult, the life-saving benefits they can offer are worth the effort. Only you can make the decision to take control of your wellness. Start with these simple steps:

Step 1. Don’t smoke. If you smoke, quitting is

one of the most important things you can do to decrease your chances of a stroke. Puff-ing on tobacco sets the stage for a stroke in the following ways:

Why it’s important: Smoking is linked to an ac-

cumulation of plaque in your carotid arteries, which supply blood to your brain. Block-age in these arteries, including plaque, is the leading cause of stroke.

Carbon monoxide from smoking lowers the amount of oxygen that your blood can carry to your brain and makes your blood more likely to clot. Blood clots in an artery that

supplies blood to your brain can trigger a stroke.

Nicotine in the tobacco raises your blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to stroke.

If you smoke, talk to your doctor about medications and programs that can help you stop.

Step 2. Trim down. Being overweight is asso-

ciated with many factors that raise your risk for a stroke.

Why it’s important: You’re more likely to have

high cholesterol, which is an ingredient in plaque that can block your arteries. Blocked arteries are a risk factor for stroke.

You’re more likely to de-velop type 2 diabetes. The el-evated levels of blood glucose, high cholesterol and increased blood pressure associated with diabetes can cause a stroke.

You’re more likely to have high blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to stroke.

Doctors typically deter-mine whether patients are too heavy by their body mass in-dex (BMI), which uses a for-mula combining your height and weight. Ideally, your BMI should be less than 25. Calcu-late your BMI online by visit-ing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at: www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/index.htm.

Step 3. Get moving. If you don’t do much physi-

cal activity, you can develop high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes, all of which increases your chance for a stroke.

Why it’s important: If you’re at a healthy

weight, it’s still important to exercise regularly.

If you’re overweight, exer-cising regularly will help you shed the extra pounds.

Exercising regularly means at least 30 minutes of physical

activity on most days. If you can’t do it all at once, it’s OK to break up your activity into smaller chunks.

Step 4. Prevent or control diabetes.

Diabetes can damage the blood vessels in your brain and elsewhere in your body. Be-sides being at a very high risk for a stroke, most people with diabetes die of some form of cardiovascular disease.

Why it’s important: If you have diabetes, main-

taining your blood sugar levels through weight loss, physical activity and possibly by taking medications can help reduce your risk of stroke.

If you don’t have diabetes, regular physical activity and keeping a healthy weight will help you avoid it. By getting a preventive health screening for diabetes, you can find out what your risks are for the disease.

Step 5. Eat a healthy diet. Loading up your plate with

fruits, vegetables and grains and cutting down on foods high in sodium, cholesterol and saturated fat, is also an im-portant component in a stroke-preventing lifestyle. As a rule, avoid fatty meats, full-fat dairy and baked snack foods con-taining partially hydrogenated oils. Keep your sodium con-sumption below 2,400 milli-grams (or 1 teaspoon) per day. This daily amount includes all salt and sodium in your foods, not just salt you add.

Why it’s important: Following this type of diet

will help you maintain a health-ier blood pressure and lower cholesterol, which is necessary for stroke prevention.

Life Line Screening, the nation’s leading provider of preventive health screenings, encourages you to take a closer look at exactly how making these changes can help you prevent a stroke and live a healthier lifestyle for overall wellness.

Prevent a stroke in 5 simple steps

With today’s record low real estate prices and attrac-tive mortgage rates, now may be a good time to think about investing in a second home that ultimately can be used as your permanent res-idence upon retirement. By taking a “buy-and-rent” ap-proach before you’re ready to retire, your new home will actually have partly paid for itself by the time you’re ready to move into it.

“Buying and renting out a second home as a vacation rental property until you’re ready to move in upon re-tirement can significantly help offset the cost of own-ership,” says Brian Shar-ples, CEO of HomeAway, the world’s leading online vacation rental marketplace. “The income stream, in ad-dition to tax write-offs for maintenance and repairs, make this an attractive strat-egy for many people nearing retirement.”

According to Home-Away, the average second-home owner rents out their property to travelers 17 weeks a year, generating more than $28,000 in rental income annually. And the demand for vacation rentals among travelers is growing, which is good news for sec-ond-home owners. In fact, 87 percent of travelers who looked into a vacation rental in the past say they plan to stay in a vacation rental in 2010 - a significant increase from the 67 percent who stayed in a vacation rental in 2009.

To generate income from

a second home price, consid-er the areas where consumer demand for vacation rentals is high, but inventory is low. For example, Atlantic City, N.J.; Sunny Isles Beach, Fla.; Hampton Beach, N.H.; Dauphin Island, Ala., and Mount Pocono, Pa., were among some of the most underserved markets for vacation rental properties in 2009, according to Home-Away.

• Factor in tax write-offs - Talk to an accoun-tant about tax advantages of owning and renting out a second home. Expenses such as insurance, utilities, home maintenance and de-preciation can be deducted, depending on how often you rent the property and how many weeks you personally stay there each year.

• Advertise to attract

renters. When you’re ready to rent out the property, be sure to market the avail-ability of the vacation rental to travelers by listing it on sites like HomeAway.com or VRBO.com, which reach millions of travelers each month. A 12-month listing costs $329 - or less than $28 per month - on Home-Away.com, so the advertis-ing pays for itself with your first booking - and the rest is pure rental income.

• Stay competitive and network with own-ers - Check other similar vacation rentals in the area to determine what rates they’re charging and price your home at a competitive rate to help drive bookings. Also, be sure to talk with other owners to get their tips and advice for maximizing a second home investment.

Retirement CommunityThousands of people ev-

ery year begin the process of evaluating assisted living fa-cilities either for themselves or a loved one. Personal safety is one of the primary reasons individuals choose to enter a care facility.

Seniors often cherish their independence and don’t want to admit they may need help in certain areas of daily life. However, injuries in and around the house have be-come a routine part of many seniors’ lives. At some point in time a conversation has to be had if it is no longer safe for an elderly person to live alone.

Although there are other living arrangements available, such as in-law suites in homes or a visiting nurse service, for many seniors the practical choice is to enter an assisted living facility.

Assisted living facilities are suitable for individuals needing help with ADL, or activities of daily life, but who desire to live as inde-pendently as possible for as long as possible. An ALF acts as a transition between inde-pendent living and a nursing home. It is practical for those who cannot live on their own but do not require constant supervision.

Facilities may offer a host of services, including assis-tance with eating, dressing, bathing, housekeeping, and other needs. The center also may be able to provide some level of medical care. How-ever, this medical care won’t be as extensive as in a nursing home or hospital setting.

Safety a major factor in the choice for assisted living

Today’s seniors might cringe at the escalating costs of necessities such as prescription medica-tion and even higher util-ity bills, and understand-ably so. However, savvy seniors can save by tak-ing advantage of a host of discounts exclusive to the those over the age of 65.

* Travel perks. Many seniors love to travel, and can even do so at heav-ily discounted prices. Larger hotel chains often offer seniors discounts as high as 10 percent. Unfortunately, many U.S. domestic airlines, facing higher fuel prices and dwindling business due the global economic downturn, ceased offer-ing senior discounts in 2009. However, certain airlines, including South-west Airlines, still offer

discounted rates to seniors. These dis-counts can be as much as 10 per-cent. It’s also com-mon for car rental agencies to offer senior discounts.

* Trans-portation. Many com-munities provide heavily dis-counted, if not free, rates to seniors for public trans-portation. Consult with your local government to determine if you qualify for senior discounts.

* Food. Grocery stores commonly offer dis-counts to older custom-ers, and many times you don’t even need to be a senior citizen to qualify. In general, chains offer senior discounts, includ-ing special days for se-niors to shop, to anyone over the age of 55. Res-taurants are also known to offer senior discounts, and often these discounts extend beyond “early bird special” discounts of yesteryear. While early bird specials still exist, many chain restaurants offer discounted prices to seniors regardless of time of day. In many cas-es, these discounts aren’t listed on the menu, but it never hurts, and typi-cally saves, to ask.

* Arts and culture. Se-niors looking to spend a day or night on the town and take in some culture can typically do so at a discounted rate. Muse-ums and National Parks typically offer discount-ed admission to seniors, as do movie theaters and even some concert halls.

Common discounts available to senior citizens

Arms too short to read the newspaper? After age 40, our eyes tend to lose focusing abilities. This makes reading fine print increasingly difficult. “Readers” or “cheaters” may seem like a simple solution, but for the best results everyone should get their eyes checked yearly to rule out more serious problems and to know what is best for their vision.

Are you and your health care provider on the same page when it comes to dis-cussing your health? Does he or she think you‚Äôre doing as well at maintain-ing your health as you think you are? Probably not, ac-cording to a new survey conducted by StrategyOne on behalf of GE, the Cleve-land Clinic and Ochsner Health System.

While about a third of patients surveyed gave themselves grades of “A”

on managing their personal health, eating well, exer-cising regularly, managing stress and getting preventa-tive screenings, the major-ity of health care providers gave Americans a grade of “C” or lower on all points, according to the survey of more than 2,000 Americans age 18 and older, and more than 1,200 doctors, nurses, pharmacists and dieticians.

What’s more, 70 percent of those surveyed admitted to avoiding their doctors at

some point, even though 95 percent recognize the im-portance of regular doctor visits. And while 70 percent of providers say their pa-tients only come to see them when they’re sick, only 38 percent of Americans say this is true.

“Healthy living is not easy and can be overwhelm-ing at times,” says Olympic figure skating champion Michelle Kwan, who has teamed up with fellow Olympic champion Scott Hamilton, GE, Ochsner Health and the Cleveland Clinic to educate Ameri-cans on how to take simple daily steps to improve their health, and their communi-cation with their doctors. ‚

“We learned there are times when Americans would rather clean their house than take care of their health, and with my hectic schedule, I can totally re-late. You have to work to improve your health - it’s not something that gets bet-ter overnight.”

“It’s crucial for people to take ownership of their health if they want to main-tain it,” says Dr. Joseph Bisordi, chief medical of-ficer of Ochsner in New Orleans. “This is not just a question of motivation; we’re seeing a significant doctor-patient communi-cation gap. Health care professionals are eager to help people achieve better health.”

So how can Americans improve their health and their communications with their physician? GE’s heal-

thymagination: ‘Year of Better Health for More Peo-ple’ initiative aims to help. On the Web site www.heal-thymagination.com, Ameri-cans can get advice on:

• What questions to ask your doctor about your overall health and specific medical conditions that might concern you. De-veloped with WebMD, the Better Health Conversation asks you a series of ques-tions about your health sta-tus and generates suggested discussion points to cover with your doctor.

• A free mobile appli-cation for iPhones or An-droids that suggests easy-to-do activities to improve your health in surprising, imaginative ways.

• An interactive tool that allows you to share health news, features and blogs with others on a variety of sites.

• Interactive data, graph-ically presented allows you to apply the data and learn about health issues like the major health issues facing Americans and conditions frequently experienced by people with health profiles similar to yours.

“Unfortunately the sur-vey showed most Ameri-cans are avoiding the one person who could help them live healthier,” says Bisordi., “It’s time for Americans to have a more collaborative relationship with their health care pro-viders, and we believe that improving your knowledge of good health is the best way to start.”

Are you and your doctor on the same page?

At one point in the 2008 Oscar-nominated film “Frost/Nixon,” former President Richard Nixon, played by Frank Langella, says, “Retired people are the most bored people in the world.” While some retirees might scoff at that remark, others no doubt agree there’s an element of truth to it.

Perhaps boredom is one reason many seniors con-tinue to work past retire-ment age. According to the Congressional Research Service (CRS), 47 percent of male seniors and 34 per-cent of female seniors were employed in 2007. That those figures were from 2007 is significant, as it indicates this was before the economic downturn of 2008-09, a consequence of which was more seniors re-turning to the workforce.

For many seniors, though, working isn’t sim-ply a means to earn money. In fact, seniors who contin-ued working past the age of 70 earned an average of just $20,000 in 2007. Se-niors also tend to work to have something to do. For seniors looking to do just that, there are a host of em-ployment or even volunteer opportunities that can help seniors stay busy and pos-sibly put a little extra mon-ey in their pockets.

* Local park service. Many local park services hire seniors to help keep the parks clean. These are often seasonal opportuni-ties, making them ideal for

seniors who live in differ-ent cities depending on theseasons.

* Golf course. Golfcourses are other season-al businesses, at least inmuch of the country, thatalso boast lots of part-timeopportunities for seniors.For example, golf coursesneed rangers, who ensureall golfers play by the rulesand respect the course, andeven maintenance staff,who do everything fromcut the grass to maintain-ing gardens. These can alsopull double duty, providingseniors with daily exerciseto help them stay healthy.

* Volunteer. Many pro-grams that help indigentcitizens get by every daywelcome seniors as volun-teers. Meal delivery servic-es and other programs thatcater to the sick are often inneed of a helping hand.

* School systems. Lo-cal school districts alsohave volunteer opportuni-ties that can be ideal forseniors. Positions suchas crossing guard or evenhelping out with the localathletic teams don’t requiremuch of a commitment andcan be rewarding and funfor seniors.

* Consultant work. Se-niors who miss the thrillof business don’t have togive it up completely sim-ply because they’re retired.Many seniors earn a hand-some amount of money byworking as consultants, us-ing their vast experience tohelp the next generation.What’s more, consultantsoften work on their ownschedule, an ideal situationfor seniors with a passionfor business but an equalpassion for the positives ofretirement.

* Library. Librariesmight not be as popular asthey once were, but manyare still going strong, andsome even use volunteersand part-time employeesto keep their operationsrunning smoothly. Manylibraries prefer hiring se-niors thanks to their reli-ability and good attitude.

Job opportunities abound for seniors
