Always In Bloom To Host Health Fair

MSFD Honors Retired Fire Captain

MaNTua - Last Sunday afternoon, the Mantua-Shalersville Fire Department held a ceremony that was over 18 years in the making. That’s when the department presented a fire axe to former Fire Captain Ed Leferink, who retired in the late 1990’s, in a ceremony that day.

According to firefighter and unofficial station historian Tim Benner, Fire Captain Ed Leferink, a 90-year-old World War II veteran, had retired in the late 1990s. Unfortunately, at that time, a recognition ceremony was never held to honor Captain Leferink’s long career of service. “Ed is such a hardworking, unassuming guy, and

we wanted to be sure to correct that oversight, “ Benner explained. “We were proud to honor him by awarding him a ceremonial fire ax to recognize his 26 years of service to our community.”

Current and retired firefighters, family and friends surrounded retired Captain Leferink during the ceremony, which was immediately followed by a luncheon. Resident Marielle thanked the group, commenting, “Thank you to all for the wonderful job you do in our community!” Local resident Erin Herbold had a more personal message specifically for the retired Captain. “Love you, grandpa,” she beamed.

It was almost all about the BS.Well, the first day was...after that, it was about the

amazing new horizons for the Portage County Park District, now that it’s got funding and the ability to actually plan and carry out plans for the benefit of Portage County residents. Here’s what the BS was about.

Mantua’s Art on the Hill event had wine and food trucks/establishments, artisans and crafters of all stripes, organizations and activities—the string quartet was particularly nice, contests and raffles, great weather and an enthusiastic crowd. It also segued into a dedication—actually a rededication—of a plaque mounted on a boulder, marking the Mantua Swamp as an “illustration of the nation’s natural heritage”—a National Natural Landmark (Try saying that rapidly a couple of times), as designated by the National Park Service ( Which, by the way is celebrating its centennial this year. More on that later), a division of the U.S. Department of the Interior. So there. It’s a Swamp.

Not twenty feet away, also at the corner of Peck and Mennonite roads, where the Headwaters Trail goes by, heading for either Garrettsville or Mantua, there is a rather rustic sign pointing out that this is the location of the Mantua Bog, a State Nature Preserve under the jurisdiction of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Natural Areas and Preserves. Take that! It’s a Bog.

So is it a bog or is it a swamp? B or S? None of the dignitaries in attendance—Lisa Petit of the NPS, Leo Acosta of the National Natural Landmarks crowd, Jeff Johnson of the ODNR, Chris Craycroft of the Portage Park System, Charlie English, Kim of the DMRC, Greg Balierz--went out on a limb to specify. Adam Wohlever, local dude of the ODNR, who led the hike to view some of the more accessible features of the place, confided that it was actually a fen, and proceeded to explain a whole lot about the differences between a bog, a swamp and a fen and the glacial antecedents of the whole situation, geologically speaking.

He also pointed out some of the interesting local flora—plants-- and fauna--animals (well, there was a toad or two)—as the hike progressed. Hikers got to take the steps up on the small viewing platform about halfway through to look out over all of the green, gooey landscape and to ask questions all of the way along. One would be ill-advised to step too far off the beaten path into the bog...swamp...er...fen, but it certainly was interesting.

Flowers, fungi, leaves, trees...fascinating, all of it. One would also be ill-advised to sit down on a log

to fix one’s shoes without checking the vegetation first; those “leaves of three” are native to the place too (I’m still waiting for the appearance of a rash; none so far).

O.K., that was Saturday. Sunday, it was another story out in the wilds.

Sunday was the opening of the latest, newly-accessible part of the Portage County Park District, the Morgan Preserve off St. Rte 44 in Shalersville Twp. It was a goodly crowd in attendance, some fifty-plus or so. The weather, again, was fine, if on the warm side. Parks director, Chris Craycroft, introduced staff members and other movers-and-shakers like Chuck Englehart, Judge Berger and the chair of the Portage Parks Foundation board.

Attendees got to hear a brief history of the preserve, beginning with its acquisition by local entrepreneur, Burton D. Morgan, for his grand project to incorporate the then-unused land of the Arsenal into a proposed jetport and industrial park encompassing much of the center of Portage County—with Ravenna, Freedom, Shalersville townships, for starters. Fierce opposition was aroused and the plan came to naught, in the end. The Burton D. Morgan Foundation and the Margaret Clark Morgan Foundation became the owners of the property, maintaining some agricultural usage but primarily holding the area in preservation mode until the Portage Park District Foundation and its co-operating partners ,such as the Western Reserve Land Conservancy, the Ohio EPA and Clean Ohio could put together the funding for the acquisition of the area. The two Morgan foundations were key elements in the plan, as well.

With the passage of the Portage County levy providing reliable funding—up to this point, it was a hard-scrabble existence of fundraisers, donations and volunteers—Phase One of development began. Over-all planning is still going on, trails are being opened, needs are being assessed. “We’ve come a long way, Baby”...but there’s more to come. Watch for it.

Seven worthy individuals stepped up to the green-and-gold ribbon across the main trail entrance, seven pairs of scissors swung into position and with the countdown...three...two...one!...SNIP! It was done. Hikers in twos and threes, families and singles headed out for their inaugural stroll through the latest in an outdoor adventure for Portage County. More to come.

So is it a bog or is it a swamp?Iva Walker | Columnist

Kent State University at Trumbull Summer Stock is pleased to announce production of “Schoolhouse Rock, Live!” as its summer musical. Young people get ready for learning in a fun-filled atmosphere, and older folks get ready for a trip down memory lane.

Directed by Eric S. Kildow, Assistant Professor & Theatre Director, Kent State University at Trumbull, with Music Direction by Matt White, the pop culture phenomenon comes to the musical stage in “Schoolhouse Rock Live!” The Emmy Award-winning 1970’s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, and more through clever, tuneful songs is not only making a small-screen comeback, it’s lighting up stages everywhere -- from school multi-purpose rooms to university and regional theatres all around the country.

“Schoolhouse Rock Live!” follows Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher who is nervous about his first day of teaching. He tries to relax by watching TV when various characters representing facets of his personality emerge from the set and show him how to win his students over with imagination and music, through such songs as “Just A Bill,” “Lolly, Lolly, Lolly,” and “Conjunction Junction.”

Show dates are July 15-16, 22-23, 29-30 at 8 p.m., July 17, 24 & 31st at 3:00 p.m. To purchase tickets, call the box office at 330-675-8887 or email [email protected].

Stacy turner | Contributing reporterMantua Village News

MaNTua - At the last Village Council meeting, Portage County Treasurer Brad Cromes was present to share his department’s 2015 accomplishments. He noted that during the past year, they launched a new web site and Facebook page to better communicate with residents. Residents may now pay their tax bills online, and also have access to valuable information on how to budget, avoid debt, and make good financial decisions. Mr. Cromes also highlighted the Land Bank efforts to clean up blighted properties around the county, and shared information on the county’s Home Improvement Program, through which eligible residents can receive low interest loans for home improvement projects. For more information, visit www.co.portage.oh.us/treasurer/.

Next, the Mayor recognized Patrolman Paul Maroni for 20 years of service to the Mantua Village Police

Department. After thanking him for his service, Mayor Clark went on to swear in Sergeant Joe Urso while his wife, Andrea, proudly looked on. In similar news, Police Chief Harry Buchert reported

that the Buckeye Pipeline donated $750 to the Police Capital Fund.

Similarly, Mayor Clark noted that the Village Tavern and Crestwood Lions donated 15 watering cans for use at the cemetery at a value

of $75. And that Brugmann’s donated approximately 127 tons of gravel for a turn around for loading and unloading canoes and kayaks at Village Park. The Estimated value of the donation was $2,540. She noted that the Service Department designed and installed the drive.

In other news, Mayor Clark announced that after interviewing several applicants for the Village Administrator position, Council approved a motion to fill the position. The applicant’s name and start date were withheld pending notification of the individual’s current employer. Next, Mayor Clark shared a letter she had received from a 15-year-old female regarding President Obama’s mandate regarding public restrooms. The letter-writer urged Council to pass legislation that would require individuals to use the restroom of their biological sex, and not choose a restroom based on the gender they “identify with.” Although Mayor Clark nor

Council commented on the topic or the letter, Mayor Clark later shared, “I think it’s admirable that she felt strongly enough to write a letter stating her feelings on such a controversial topic.”

In other news, it was noted that the Downtown Mantua Revitalization Corporation (DMRC) pledged $5,000 to have CT Consultants develop a Master Plan for Village Park. The plan would be used to help facilitate grant applications for future park projects. In related news, Village Engineer Rich Iafelice noted that the due date for bids on the High Street Roadway Improvement project would be extended by two weeks so that testing could be conducted along the route east of the river. Mr. Iafelice advised that testing is needed, since petroleum was found in the soil when the bridge was redone last year. At that time, 800 tons of contaminated soil was removed at the expense of the county. If petroleum contamination is found in the new work zone, potential contractors must be made aware prior to the bid process.

Lastly, Mayor Clark appointed two individuals to the Income Tax Review Board -- residents Karen Edmondson and Roy Peck. One more person is needed; interested parties may call (330) 274-8776. The next Village Council meeting will be held on Tuesday, July 19th at 7 pm. Residents are encouraged to attend.

“Footloose” comes to Garrettsville

The new president of the Garrettsville-Hiram Rotary Club, Delores McCumbers, stepped up to the plate...er...the podium to begin her year at the helm of the organization at the July 11 meeting, at Cal’s II, Sky Plaza, Garrettsville, noon, sharp.

The meeting began with the inauguration/installation of the new, but experienced, officers and president by installing officer and longest member, Jim Irwin. The baton was passed by outgoing president, Tom Collins, who briefly recounted some of the year’s accomplishments. The new officers for the 2016-2017 year were introduced : Amy Crawford, president-elect, Lisa Muldowney, treasurer, Tom Collins, secretary and sergeant-at-arms.

President McCumbers credited the 34,000 clubs of Rotary International and the local involved members for their investment of time and effort toward community advancement and such worldwide goals as the eradication of polio. She gave a preview of intentions for the coming year, including new grants and projects as well as a recognition of the centennial year of the Rotary Foundation, established in 1916.

She introduced her family posse, son, grandchildren, daughters-in-law, friends, in from far parts and near, and husband, Tony McCumbers, who must be close to honorary status in the club, considering all of the contributions which he has made.

Other topics of interest included Stew Buchanan, asst. dist. governor, promoting Rotary baseball night with the Cleveland Indians and a raffle for throwing out the first pitch at a game, all in support of the anti-polio drive; Amy Crawford reported a stint at the Kent Fest, working concessions with some InterActers for Missie Pfile and netting a donation of over $300; John Wolfe announced an open house at the Nelson United Methodist Church on July 31 in recognition of his 40 years in ministry; Tom Collins announced that “Art”, our most recent Rotary Exchange student at James A. Garfield H.S., had left to finish his year in the states wearing his Rotary jacket and his Varsity G letter.

New members, former members, interested friends always welcome—Mondays at noon, Cal’s II, Sky Plaza, Garrettsville.

Hike at Orchard Hills Park with Katherine Malmquist

Take a walk in the woods with Protect Geauga Parks, led by renowned hike leader Katherine Malmquist. The hike will be held from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm on Sunday, July 24 at Orchard Hills Park, 11340 Caves Road, (adjacent to Patterson Fruit Farm), Chesterland, Ohio 44026 …meet at Orchard Hills Lodge.

This hike will be at a leisurely pace, with Katherine sharing tidbits about wildflowers, birds, and some interesting facts about the history and reclamation of Orchard Hills Park, a conservation success story in progress.

Once a golf course, the Geauga Park District is slowly returning the land of Orchard Hills Park to a more natural state. Some of the funding for restoration comes through a grant under the provisions of the Clean Water Act. We will hike the outer loop (the 1.5 mile McIntosh Trail) that loops through former fairways, restored wetlands and reforested areas. There are some hills but trails are groomed.

For refreshments before or after our hike, consider the Café at Patterson Fruit Farm next door – with a view of Lake Erie from their patio!

We LOVE our parks and want to support the mission to CONSERVE, PRESERVE and PROTECT.

Book Discussion Club Meeting at the Garrettsville Library

The Book Discussion Club of the Garrettsville Li-brary, a branch of the Portage County District Library, will meet on Tuesday, July 19 in the library’s meeting room from 5:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. This month’s selection is Girls of Atomic City: The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II by Denise Kiernan. It’s the true story of The Clinton Engineer Works, located in Oak Ridge, a city in Tennessee on 60,000 acres of farmland by the Appalachian foothills shrouded in se-crecy, that- from 1942 to 1945- recruited young women to relocate there, enticing them with offers of educational and professional opportunities, solid wages, and war-ending work. The true nature of the city’s work was hidden from its employees- and from the world. Those interested in learning more about this book discussion may sign up at the Reference Desk- where copies of this selected book are available- or call 330-527-4378 for additional information.

The Garrettsville Library, located at 10482 South Street in Garrettsville, is open Monday and Tuesday, and Wednesday from 10:00 am until 8:00 pm; Friday from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm; Saturday from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm; and closed Thursday and Sunday.

As I have mentioned in previous columns, this summer has been the best – hot temperatures, plenty of sun, lots of parties and, of course, lots of wine! As harvest season is right around the corner, I thought I would take the next couple of weeks to give you a quick discussion on white wine grapes versus red wine grapes. So grab a glass of your favorite white wine and continue to read…

There are too many varietals of grapes to name and every year researchers in New York and California continue to experiment with new grapes. Some of the most popular white wine grapes are Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio, Niagara and Vidal Blanc. Each year the grapes (and eventually the wine) can range in sweetness, color and acidity based on the weather during the growing season. Here are some of the general characteristics of some white wine grapes so you have a better understanding the next time you are at a wine tasting.

Chardonnay – usually known for a buttery or vanilla taste, Chardonnays range from a soft flavor to a very crisp flavor. When Chardonnay grapes are fermented in oak, the result is a big, full bouquet (or smell) of vanilla, butter and a smooth finish. Chardonnays that are fermented in stainless steel have a tendency to be crisper with pear or apple bouquet.

Gewürztraminer – just trying to say the name of this wine (sounds like guh-VOORTS-truh-MEE-ner) makes it a fun summertime wine. Gewurtz (a shorter name of this grape) is usually on the drier side which creates a peppery or spicier finish. Gewurtz is an excellent wine to have with a jalapeño cheese or a spicy dish like Thai or curry.

Riesling – depending on the style of Riesling (German, Italian, French or a Late Harvest) this wine can be very dry or very sweet. A drier Riesling tends to be filled with green apple aromas but as the wine tends to sweeten you may get more of a citrus to a melon-like flavor in your wines. Riesling grapes are hearty enough where they can stay on the vine until late fall (called a Late Harvest Riesling) which greatly increases the sweetness of a wine making it a great dessert wine.

Vidal Blanc – similar to a Pinot Blanc, Vidal tend to be crisp, fruity and sweet. Most wineries use Vidal grapes as an excellent source to blend with other wines that tend to be too dry. The grape is very versatile as well, which makes for a great ice wine.

Niagara – if you like the taste of fresh grapes in your wine, Niagara is the perfect wine for you. Niagara grapes are very sweet and can trick you into thinking you are drinking white grape juice instead of wine. For non-wine drinkers this varietal is a great introduction to the wine family. Or on hot summer days, this is a great wine to mix with a little bit of Sprite – making it a great wine spritzer.

When you are out visiting other wineries, be sure to try a variety of wines – you will be surprised at the different styles of wine you taste based on the same grape.

Notes from the vineyardamanda conkol | Columnist

Vintage NewsJames a. garfield HistoriCal soCiety

Back in January, 1958 the Kellogg Co. and Pan-American World Airways had a jet clipper naming contest. Garrettsville resident Mrs. Noble Hopkins submitted the name “Jet Clipper America” and won the contest. The jet clipper bearing the name submitted by Mrs. Hopkins was the first American commercial jet to cross the ocean. Her prize was a 14 day, expense paid, five-country tour of Europe for herself and four other family members. They visited London, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam and also a spot in Switzerland. The Hopkins family were among 111 passengers to land in Paris on a Boeing 707 which also carried several dignitaries including actress Greer Garson.

Windham - The family of Dalton Fall would like to thank the community for their help in sending him to the All-American Blue-Grey combine. Dalton competed in the combine on June 25 and worked to raise over $1,000 to pay for the trip’s expenses.

With tears in her eyes Denise Fall expressed so much gratitude “I was shocked by the response and so thankful that the community was so willing to help my son. It was a nice trip; we wouldn’t have been able to go without their (the community’s) help. It was great to get the one-on-one time with Dalton.”

Dalton had a blast and said it was the most competitive combine he had been to and said he learned a lot, a lot he already knew but so much more.

“It was definitely a dream come true, more than I had expected and I expected a lot,” said Dalton Fall. “I really enjoyed it.”

The family Denise, Dalton and stepfather Herb were able to tour the John F. Kennedy memorial while there. All agreed that the football was great, but the family time was precious.

The man who gave us the tour said, “Give me your phone and go down to the red X”, the place Kennedy was supposedly shot. “We got a picture there. We thought the man was going to take our phone and run,” Denise said laughing. The man cut off our heads in the first photo then as we were going to get another the light turned green. We thought we were about to get run over.” The three laughed at the telling of their memories. These are times you just can’t get back and this family is extremely grateful that the Villager community was so responsive and allowed them to work for their trip.

The family would like to especially thank Paul and Cindy Dragovich, Dee Hockman, David and Louie Samanieo, Roubic Law, Eric Campbell, Ruth Sheehan, Mr. and Mrs. Dino Manno, Beth Harvey, Marilyn Paul, Sue Mason and daughter Vicki, and the Narnels.

“Thank you for all the calls and the huge response. Thank you for pitching in to help me out. I really, really appreciate it,” said a grateful Dalton Fall.

Thank You for sending Dalton Fall to the Blue-Grey Bowl

The Organizing Committee Members were Connie Kraft (Leedom) Chairman Mantua OH, Vera Etling (Gilles) Historian, Freedom OH, Mary Jo Minnick ( Stiffler), Member Newton Falls, Oh , Ruth Becks (Herrington), Member Garrettsville, OH, Donna Mayer (Bockelman) Member, Cortland, OH, Becky Dietrich (Shahan) Member, Garrettsville, OH

Vera Etling (Gilles) Historian provided the memorabilia display of photo albums, letters from classmates, past yearbooks, and a lighted memorial of deceased classmates and class sponsors.

Mark Brunn, classmate provided a painting of the Freedom School he did on a piece of slate obtained upon demolition of the school. The painting was a nice memory.

Out of State Guests were: Regina Lejsek (Kochar) Vista, California – Diane Heyd (Laymon) Green Acres, Florida – John & Joy Boyer, Emery, South Dakota – Barbara Collins (Sackrider) & William, Climax, Michigan – Phyllis Jakupcik (Ebbert) Cambridge Springs, Penna.

There was much reminiscing and many memories shared.

Connie closed the banquet with a thought of the day “It matters not how long we live but how we live.” Quoted by Philip James Bailey

GarreTTsville - The beginning of the Town Trotters 4-H club’s show season started in May with Tuesday night riding meetings in which the members and other 4Hers go to the Randolph fairgrounds and practice their skills to prepare for upcoming shows leading up to fair. Friday nights throughout summer there are horse shows. The shows allow us to compete in classes such as Showmanship, English and Western classes. There are also contesting classes such as the barrel and pole classes. In addition, all 4H members planning to take a horse to fair must attend a skill-a-thon event where each member is tested on knowing the parts of their tack, riding rules and other equine related information.

The Beginning of Summer

Will your heirs receive a fair share of your wealth? Will your invested assets go where you want them to when you die?

If you have a proper will or estate plan in place, you will likely answer “yes” to both of those questions. The beneficiary forms you filled out years ago for your IRA, your workplace retirement plan, and your life insurance policy may give you even more confidence about the eventual transfer of your wealth.

One concern still remains, though. You have to tell your heirs that these documents exist.

That does not mean sharing all the details. If you have decided that some of your heirs will one day get more of your wealth than others, you can keep quiet about that decision as long as you live. You do want to tell your heirs the essential details; they should know that you have a will and/or an estate plan, and they should understand that you have named beneficiaries for your retirement accounts, your investment accounts, and your insurance policies.

Over time, you must review your beneficiary decisions. In fact, you may want to revisit them. As an example, say you opened an IRA in 1997. Your life has probably changed quite a bit since 1997. Were you single then, and are you married now? Were you married then, and are you single now? Have you become a parent since then? If you can answer “yes” to any of those three questions, then you need to look at that IRA beneficiary form now. Your choices may need to change.

Here is a quick look at how beneficiary decisions play out for a few of the most popular retirement accounts.

Employer-sponsored retirement plans. These are governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), which rules that if the late accountholder was married, the surviving spouse is entitled to at least 50% of the account assets. That applies even if another person has been designated as the primary beneficiary. In such a case, the spouse and the primary beneficiary may split the assets 50/50. (The spouse can actually waive his or her right to that 50% of the invested assets through a Spousal Waiver form. A spouse usually has to be older than 35 for this to be allowed.) These rules also apply for other types of ERISA-governed retirement assets, such as pension plan accounts and corporate-owned life insurance.1,2

The Supreme Court has decided that these rules take priority over state laws (Egelhoff v. Egelhoff, 2001; Hillman v. Maretta, 2013) and divorce agreements (Kennedy Estate v. Plan Administrator for the DuPont Saving and Investment Plan, 2008).3,4

If a participant in one of these retirement accounts remarries, the new husband or wife is entitled to 50% of those assets at death. While a plan participant may name a child as the beneficiary of a retirement account after a divorce, remarriage will leave only 50% of those assets with that child when the accountholder dies, rather than 100%, unless the new spouse waives his or her right to

receiving 50% of the assets. The new spouse will be in line to receive that 50% of the account even if unnamed on the beneficiary form.1

IRAs. Unlike an employer-sponsored retirement plan, a spouse does not have automatic beneficiary rights with an IRA. That is because IRAs are governed under state laws rather than ERISA. One interesting estate planning aspect of an IRA rollover is that the owner of the new IRA has the freedom to name anyone as the primary beneficiary.1

Life insurance policies. The death proceeds go to the named beneficiary; occasionally, a beneficiary may not know a policy exists.

Recently, 60 Minutes did an expose on the insurance industry. Major insurers had withheld more than $7.5 billion in life insurance death proceeds from beneficiaries. They had a contractual reason for doing so: the beneficiaries had never stepped forward to file claims.5

While many of the policies involved were valued at $10,000 or less, others were worth over $1 million. The deceased policyholders had either failed to tell their heirs about the policies or misplaced the copies and the paperwork. Their heirs did not know (or know how) to claim the money. As a result, the insurance proceeds lay unclaimed for years, and the insurers only now feel pressure to pay out the benefits.5

Update your beneficiaries; let your heirs know how vital these forms are. Make sure that your beneficiary decisions on retirement, brokerage and bank accounts, college savings plans, and life insurance policies suit your wealth transfer objectives.
