In the first three articles of thisseries we talked about Smeck Parkin Baltimore, Arney Run Park andTwo Glaciers Park that are south-southwest of Lancaster, CrossMound Park near Tarlton, andSensory Trail Park near OU-Lancaster. Let’s go northwest toViolet Township.

ZELLER PARK

THEN (Before 2017) Manycalled it ‘the soccer park’ because itis often used by Pickerington AreaSoccer Association for practices.Using funds from the levy thatpassed in 2011, a playground withswings, a slide, and climbingequipment was installed. Thecenterpiece of this park, though, isthe awesome picnic shelter that ispatterned after Rock Mill CoveredBridge. This is the park werecommend to those who need anADA-compatible walkway from theparking lot to the shelter. ZellerPark is just minutes fromPickerington, Canal Winchester,

and Lancaster, so it is an ideal spotfor family reunions, picnics, or justgetting out to play! Bring thefootball, a ball and bat, or set up anet for volleyball or badminton, andhave fun!

NOW (2017-Present) A newpark sign was mounted near theentrance, picnic tables were cleanedand repainted (thanks to help fromvolunteers), new mulch was addedunder the swings, and playgroundequipment was repaired and powerwashed. And, just in time! Duringthe pandemic, parks have remainedopen. Since entertainment optionsare severely limited, more and morepeople are coming to the parks.Except for the short period of timewhen a State order made us close theplayground, it is cleaned regularlyand is open for the children.

TOMORROW Plans for thefuture include a walking trail nearSycamore Creek and through the29-acre park.

Just ‘down the road’ 1.4 miles isLOCKVILLE CANAL PARK

THEN & NOW (1983-Present)If you are a history buff, youprobably know about Lockville

Canal Park. For their age, the locksare in good condition compared withmany others. However, they neededwork to save them from furtherdeterioration. Lock South 11 wasrepaired in 2013. Locks South 12and 13 still need attention, but otherprojects had to take priority. Picnictables and benches throughout thepark make this a wonderful place toeat or sit and enjoy the scenery.

Walk down the old towpathbeside the now-defunct Ohio & ErieCanal. Between Locks 11 and 12, isHartman No 2 Covered Bridge.Last year, it was repaired, painted,and her name plaque hung at eachend – she is so pretty! The bridgecan be rented for small privateevents such as afternoon tea parties.A wedding ceremony on the bridge,a reception under the picnic shelter,many charming settings for photoops – the perfect outdoor service!

TOMORROW Plans for thefuture of Lockville Canal Parkinclude restorations of Locks South12 and 13, interpretive signage, anda graveled walking trail thatincludes the original towpath andcircles the park. The three locks hereand nearby Bibler Lock will be apart of the new Ohio & Erie CanalSouthern Descent Heritage Trail,a self-guided driving tour that willtake you to canal features inFranklin, Fairfield, Pickaway, Ross,and Scioto Counties!

Both properties were acquired bydonation from the Board of CountyCommissioners of Fairfield County– Lockville Canal Park in 1983,Zeller Park in 1998.

Funding for Fairfield CountyPark District is provided by acountywide ten-year property taxthat expires this year. A renewal (nota new tax) will appear on the May2021 ballot. The certified millage is0.4; that equals $0.04 for each $100of assessed property value.Assessed property value is 35% ofappraised property value. Forexample, if a property is appraisedat $300,000, the assessed value is$105,000. If the bond issue passes,that property owner would continueto pay $42.00 per year ($3.50 permonth).

Plans for the next ten yearsinclude many improvements toexisting parks such as: permanentrestrooms; more ADA-compatibleaccess; new playgrounds and picnicshelters; extend, improve, and addtrails; maintain historical featuressuch as the locks, covered bridges,windmill, and log-framed structures;continue operation of Rock Mill;and wetland mitigations. Newparklands to be developed areMambourg Park (opening soon),Stoney Hill Park, Hansel Park (witha dog park), and Wagner Preserve(heron rookery).

Get outside, beat pandemicfatigue at Fairfield County Parks -we're here for you! Find these andall locations atfairfieldcountyparks.org.

And…watch for more ‘Then,Now, Tomorrow’ stories.

Over 1,000 photos of the BoysIndustrial School (B.I.S.) in thearchives of the Fairfield CountyHeritage Association are nowavailable to the public thanks inpart to a grant from the Ohio His-torical Records Advisory Board,or OHRAB.

These photos are on the Co-lumbus Metropolitan Library web-site, www.columbuslibrary.org.To view, go to the library’s web-page, click on research, then “MyHistory,” and type in B.I.S. (besure to include the periods) in thesearch bar to enjoy this fascinatinglocal history.

Photos and articles from theFairfield County Chapter of theAmerican Red Cross are found bytyping Red Cross Collection.Work is continuing and additionalmaterials, such as B.I.S. ledgersand more Red Cross photos, willbe added to the website as timeallows.

The Ohio Reform School wasestablished by the state govern-ment in 1857 as a reformatory forboys 8 to 18 years of age. Thecampus was located about fivemiles south of downtown Lancast-er.

The school was built withoutwalls or fences, an innovative de-sign for the times. The boys livedin cottages named after Ohio riv-ers. Each cottage housed 40 boyswho were supervised by guards,cottage matrons, and other work-ers on campus.

When a boy arrived at the OhioReform School, he had a certainnumber of demerits, based on theseverity of his crime. Students lostdemerits for good behavior. Oncethey reached zero demerits, theboys were free to return to theirfamilies. Students could also havedemerits added for bad behavior,and in extreme circumstances, cor-poral punishment was permitted.

The boys split their days be-tween traditional classroomschooling and working on thefarm or learning a trade in one ofthe vocational education build-ings. In 1901, the school offeredtraining in blacksmithing, horti-culture, tailoring, carpentry, shoe-making, brick making, andbaking, among other professions.The institution also had their ownband, and the boys received mili-tary training.

In 1884, the Ohio ReformSchool became known as theBoys' Industrial School. By 1964,the name had been changed to theFairfield School for Boys. Itclosed in 1979. In 1980, the facili-ty became the Southeastern Cor-rectional Facility for adultoffenders.

The collection was put togetheryears ago by volunteers fromschool faculty and staff. Much ofit was later donated to the FairfieldCounty Heritage Association, thecounty historical society. The col-lection does not include the boys’personal records.

The OHRAB grant was award-ed in mid-2019 and included fundsto purchase a book scanner, exter-nal hard drive, shelving unit, andarchival storage materials. The lo-cal match included the equivalentof the cost of work hours to pro-cess more of the collections. For-mer records manager Kady Wolfestarted the scanning, with officemanager Debbie Henry complet-ing it after Wolfe left for a newjob. Marketing director MaryLawrence and executive directorTammy Drobina also pitched in toassist with archiving the materials.

Heritage wishes to thankOHRAB for the grant which al-lowed us to make available theseitems for the public and research-ers.

Recently CommunityWatch members assistedthe Fairfield CountySheriff's Office withtraining to help givedeputies practice in

communication and interviewing skills andestablishing rapport. To do this, theCommunity Watch members came up with ascenario of being a victim, witness or suspect.This could be something real life that theCommunity Watch member may haveexperienced or something that was totallymade up. The scenario just had to have sometype of criminal offense associated with it.Community Watch members acted outsituations like robbery, theft, vandalism andsexual assault.

Deputies were only informed about thetype of offense and they had to obtain theneeded information by following the properprocedures and asking the right kind ofquestions. Community Watch members triedto divert their stories and deputies had to tryto get them back on track to gather the

information they needed, through a varietyof closed and open ended questions. Not onlydid deputies learn to ask the who, what,where, why and how type of questions, butthey tried to get the members to becomfortable and give additional evidence aswell. Then deputies had to figure out if theCommunity Watch member had any missingholes in their stories and they observed themembers' body language and behavior to seeif the story given was fact of fiction.

Sheriff Alex Lape shares, "I am gratefulfor the Community Watch group and theircontinued services and support. Not only tothe Sheriff's Office but also to the citizens ofFairfield County." Detective Jason Meadowsadds, "Community Watch is a valuable assetto the Sheriff's Office. Over the past fewyears Community Watch members havedonated their time to assist the DetectiveBureau in conducting interview andinterrogation training. As in past years,Community Watch members came up withdifferent scenarios to assist with the training.This training is extremely valuable as part ofthe ongoing training provided by the Sheriff'sOffice."

COLUMBUS—State SenatorTim Schaffer (R-Lancaster)recently announced theunanimous passage of SenateConcurrent Resolution 1, whichurges Congress to enact the MarkTakai Atomic VeteransHealthcare Parity Act, federallegislation that would ensure"Atomic Veterans" obtain propermedical care and assistance.

"As Americans, it is our dutyto ensure the men and womenwho risk their lives receive thecare they need after theycomplete their service," saidSchaffer. "Congress must actquickly to provide 'AtomicVeterans' a standard of care thatis responsive to the uniquedangers they endured."

As a result of their militaryservice and exposure toradiation, many of theseindividuals have developedcancer and other medicalcomplications, yet have beenexcluded from the Radiation-Exposed Veterans CompensationAct, which passed in 1988.

Additionally, Schafferapplauded PickeringtonAmerican Legion CommanderDave England for his advocacyduring the committee process.

Hawaii Congressman MarkTakai was a veteran of the U.S.Army and Hawaii ArmyNational Guard who passedaway in 2016 and was theoriginal sponsor of the bill in theHouse of Representatives.

LANCASTER, OH – TheDecorative Arts Center of Ohio(DACO) has received a $7,735grant from the Ohio HistoryFund to support the digitizationof the Peters-Whiley familyarchives gifted to DACO in thesummer of 2020. DACO wasone of 14 organizations toreceive an Ohio History Fundgrant.

The archives were gifted toDACO by descendants of thefamily that once lived in theReese-Peters House, which ishome to the Decorative ArtsCenter of Ohio. The artifactsoffer a glimpse of what life waslike for an influential family inLancaster, Ohio, over the courseof about a hundred years, fromthe 1880s to the 1990s.

DACO Executive DirectorJason Crabill said he is gratefulfor the funds to digitize at leastsome of the archives with thegrant and acknowledges theirvalue to the community.

Dodie Mitchell, whosematernal grandfather, Peter R.Phillips, grew up the Reese-Peters House, says she ispleased the archives will bedigitized so they are accessibleto the community. “This family,for probably a hundred years,saved just about everything——photos, letters, telegrams, bills,”she said. “They represent apicture of life at a certain time.This is like taking a microscopeto history. You can put all thesethings together to get anunderstanding of what life wasactually like.”

Digitization will make theartifacts widely and freelyavailable for researchers and thegeneral public through apartnership with the ColumbusMetropolitan Library. DACOexpects the digitized materialsto be available by next summer.

By Tad Moyer

The sixties came to Bremenjust as it did in the rest ofAmerica, well maybe just a littleslower. A perfect storm forchange was affecting howAmerican youths behaved. Onereason was the fact that youngAmericans were being sent to awar, or a police action, in afaraway land in southeast Asia. Inour area young men as alwaysanswered the silent call to duty.Starting in the mid sixties localboys went from ball fields andfarm fields to Asian jungleswithout a complaint.

As a country we were alsobeing invaded again by our one-time foe England. In this case itwasn't large armies with terribleweapons of destruction but smallgroups of long haired young mencarrying guitars and drumsticks.Yes, this British Invasion, unlikeprevious military invasions, waswelcomed, at least by Americanyouths. This cultural stampedewould forever change hair styles,clothing and most of all what wecall rock and roll.

Starting in the mid-sixties popgroups such as The Beatles, TheRolling Stones, The Zombies, theKinks and the Animals led thecharge that would dominateAmerican radio airplay for yearsto come. These groups were ableto gain a following in the U.S.with youths that were looking forchange of what had been normalin the United States. In the fiftiesradio airplay had been dominatedby Americans such as Elvis, PatBoone, the Big Bopper, and ThePlatters just to name a few.

The first shots of this BritishInvasion were fired February 9th1964, when the Fab Four, Beatlesto you kids, appeared on the EdSullivan Show. This program,seen by 73 million viewers, wasa beginning to British dominanceand an end to Americandominated airplay. "I want tohold your hand," was the first ofnumerous Beatles hits whichopened the door for other BritishBands. A line in this first Beatleshit, "Yea, Yea, Yea," would bemimicked for years by some ofthe older generation in expressingtheir dislike of this "long hairmusic." Ironically, bandmembers from the Beatles andRolling Stones admit their musicwas derived from American Blues

as they covered and imitatedtunes by Muddy Waters, John LeeHooker, Howling Wolf andothers. That certainly answers thequestion of why some of theirlyrics and phrasing are morelikely to be heard on the streets ofMemphis or Mobile than it was inLiverpool or Kent.

In our area teenagers listenedto these British Bands on theirtransistor radios tuned to A.M.stations W.C.O.L fromColumbus, W.L.S. in Chicago, orW.H.O.K. from Lancaster. Forseveral years W.H.O.K. had alarge local youth following withJohnny Garber DJing all the latesthits. With local youths, andespecially girls, going crazy overthese humming and strummingdudes from abroad, some localguys decided to get in on theaction.

Bremen's first rock band allstarted when a new family movedinto town from West Jefferson.This family, the Richesons, led bypatriarch Dave would buy theRoyal Blue grocery andeventually own a restaurant and abutcher shop. The Richesonswere talented in many areas butespecially in the field of music.One son Mike, Fairfield UnionClass of 67, was a fine musicianand one of the area's first leadguitar players. In the summer of1965 Mike formed a band withJohn Kemmerer lead singer, MikeDent playing bass guitar, CraigNixon on drums and HarryMurphy on organ. The bandwould go by the name Creations,which Craig Nixon remembersthe name coming from the title ofa book his mother Joyce Nixonwas reading at the time.

This garage band's first gig, soto speak, was a talent show inwhich the Creations took secondplace behind another area bandThe Rebounds. The Creationswere one of thousands of localbands that sprang up nationwidewanting to be the next Beatles orHerman's Hermits or Dave ClarkFive. Drummer Craig Nixonstated that he remembers the bandplaying Paul Revere and theRaiders songs and won the 66Sweet Corn Festival battle of thebands playing the Rolling Stonessong "Satisfaction."

I remember as a kid hearingthe Creations at the Bremen Pooland thinking they're as good asthe Beatles. The band would cut

a record with the A side being"Little Black Egg," a cover of TheNightcrawlers hit. Unfortunately,the single didn't sell well, and theclass of 67 graduated and beforelong the weight of obligationoutweighed the dreams ofstardom sending band memberstheir separate ways.

Later in the sixties the arrivalof another new Bremen familywould be the seed for anotherpopular local rock and roll band.Fairfield Union had a newsuperintendent named KennethWarling who moved fromBaltimore to Bremen residing onthe 300 block of Fort street.Kenneth's son Marc, a talentedsinger and guitarist, startedplaying with Fort Street neighborJamie Elder who played the bassguitar. Before long Kevin Cottrillwas the drummer and KentRobbins a talented Lancaster guywho played lead and rhythmguitar joined the band. This bandknown as "Mossy Rock," a spoofoff of the "Rolling Stones," wouldbe Bremen's favorite rock and rollband throughout the 1970s. Thisband which covered songs byFoghat, Bad Company, theRolling Stones and others mainlyplayed outside of FairfieldCounty. A faithful group offollowers from the Bremen areaoften traveled with the band. OneBremen guy Ron Hill would usehis knowledge in electronics torun the sound for Mossy Rockand continue as a sound man for

many other bands for years tocome.

In the late 1970s Mossy Rockbecame a house band at the iconicGlass Bar on Lancaster's east side.With the bands large localfollowing, bar owner JimmyDeflippo was all smiles with barattendance equaling the bar'sglory days in the mid-1960s.Mossy Rock would eventuallybreak up just as most bands asmembers realized dreams usuallydon't pay the bills. Marc Warlingwould take his faithful Gibson SGand become a member ofColumbus Rock Band DivineComedy. Jamie Elder would joinWhiskey River, a band whichincluded Lee and RogerMontgomery. Kent Robbinswould play locally for years withseveral bands.

As I view the photos of thesebands long since gone, I am filledwith many emotions. The dreamsof these bands were in many waysconnected to dreams we all sharedwhen we were young andinvincible. We certainly are notthe first generation to realize thatthe magic of youth vanishes asquickly as morning fog. I guessin a lot of our minds we allimagined being rock stars at onetime, so it's nice to know that weall at least knew folks thatactually heard the roar of thecrowd, saw the bright lights andgot to be rock stars at least for awhile.

Walking by faith

In order to teach us in vividways, the Holy Bible makes manybeautiful references to nature,such as birds, trees, flowers, andrivers.

There is a particular Scripturein the Psalms that is thought-pro-voking as it refers to a tree plantedby the water:

“He is like a tree planted bystreams of water,

which yields its fruit in seasonand whose leaf does not wither.Whatever he does prospers.”

Psalm 1:3

That sounds so refreshing!Who is this person?

This person is one who strivesto live a life set apart from sin. Heor she is unaffected by the ways ofthe world that are contradictory tothe ways of God. Instead, this per-son affects others with the love ofChrist.

This person delights in thereading and hearing of God’sWord. He or she ponders the Wordand learns from it and puts it intopractice in his or her life.

This person is stable, beingconstantly refreshed by the contin-ual supply from a life lived inclose connection with God. As aresult, this person is not onlyblessed, but is unknowingly ablessing to others.

Spring is Here…Let the Clean Up Begin!

While our temperatures arebeginning to warm, many of uscan not wait to get started with ouroutside chores. It is still too earlyfor those tender annuals andseveral vegetables to be in theground, there is much to do. It istime to get into the perennial bedsand vegetable gardens and startprepping for the spring.

First, cut back any plants thatyou didn't get to last fall. Oldasparagus fronds in the vegetablegarden should be cut back to theground. In the perennial beds, anyplants that you left for winterinterest (ornamental grasses,sedum, etc.) should be cut beforespring growth begins. It's a loteasier to do it when you don't havethe new tender growth to worryabout. If any plants have beenpushed out of the ground or"heaved" due to freezing andthawing of the soil, replant them.Dig them up, dig an appropriatehole, and replace the plant.

Spring is a good time totransplant or divide any perennialsthat bloom in the summer or fall.Remember, the generalrecommendation is to divideopposite of their bloom season.This doesn't mean that you can'tdivide spring bloomers now,especially if it's a must. You willsacrifice the blooms this season

but they won't be harmed for nextyear. Mums, asters, Sedum,Coreopsis, daisies, Rudbeckia, anddaylilies are examples of plants todivide now. Ornamental grassesshould be divided now but be sureto find someone with extra muscleto dig these bad boys up for you!If they have been in the ground alittle while, they are quite reluctantto be taken from their home.

Still Time to RejuvenateDeciduous Shrubs if Needed

Sometimes shrubs just get outof hand or too big for their britchesor just look straggly. If that's thecase, spring is a great time torejuvenate these plants in order toget them "back under control."Many types of deciduous shrubstolerate being cut back to about 6"above the crown of the plant. Theyput out new growth in the springand look like a brand new plant.Then in the future, you can keepit under control each year ifneeded.

Rejuvenation pruning needs tobe accomplished in the earlyspring, before new growth begins.Deciduous plants store theirsugars or energy in the roots forthe winter, sending all of thisenergy into new branches andleaves for the season. By cuttingthem back before the new growthbegins, all of that energy isdirected into the new plant.

This is not a practice that canbe done on evergreens shrubs suchas Taxus, boxwood, arborvitae,and others. These plants store theirsugars in the leaves; cutting theseplants back to the ground reallyslows their development, and insome cases, they may take foreverto recover. A good rule of thumbto rejuvenate these plants it so cutback to pencil-sized wood.
