Letter From The Mayor

Dear NeighborsAnother year has nearly passed,

the speed of which I can never understand. It seems like yesterday I wrote to tell you about our 100th year and now it is coming to a close.

Our events this year; Concerts in the Park, National Night Out, Home Day and Council Coffee were wonderful. Each one a celebration in and of itself where the weather cooperated and our residents gathered to enjoy the opportunity to come together as neighbors. For that and so much more I and your Council members are truly grateful.

On October 11th we buried a time capsule in Lyndhurst Park, a 14” square cube filled with our recorded history, some artifacts of our past and present and some cards and letters from students indicating what they love about Lyndhurst. I think the students’ writings were some of my favorite things to enclose. I have included some examples in this publication. Also enclosed was a letter from me to those who will open the capsule in 100 years; hopefully on August 7, 2117, which will be the City’s 200th official anniversary. My closing sentiment reads:

“We have become a City renowned for excellent services and responsiveness on the part of our employees and our elected officials. The notes of appreciation for jobs well done come in frequently and they make me so proud. The opportunity to work with great people is a joy and leading an organization made up of

people who take ownership of their every task elevates all, even me!

As Mayor I have the honor of writing to you; those who have retrieved this time capsule filled with reminiscences of our past and our present and with our collective hope that you are living in a place that continues to be grounded in a sense of Community, where people still act as neighbors looking out for one another, where you take time to gather and to celebrate and where you are proud to make your home. It has often been said that “Lyndhurst is where people move to live, raise a family and retire” which we hope rings true in the Lyndhurst you have inherited. God bless each and every one of you.”

It gives me tremendous pride to serve as your Mayor surrounded by a Council, staff and employees dedicated to you and our Community.

As we enter into the Season of Giving please remember those who are less fortunate, in our community or far away. Bear in mind that the smallest acts of kindness can bring the greatest joy. May each and every one of you enjoy the blessings of a safe, healthy Holiday Season!

Sincerely,

Patrick A. [email protected]

Mayor Patrick A. Ward

Lyndhurst Community CenterOur Lyndhurst Community Center is available for

If you have not yet visited our Community Center

please stop by for a tour (appointments preferred at 440.449.5011). Our regular hours are Monday - Friday 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.

We do collect old cell phones (iPods-iPads-MP3 players and digital cameras, too) to be recycled for donation to the American Cancer Society.

Winter Road Safety With winter approaching, motorists are reminded

to exercise caution in their travels. Rear end crashes as a result of failure to maintain

“assured clear distance ahead” are one of our most common accidents throughout the year. Stopping on wet pavement, snow or ice takes more time than on dry pavement, so leave extra space between your vehicle and the one you’re behind. Don’t follow the vehicle in front of you too closely and you may prevent an accident.

Driving while distracted is even more dangerous when road conditions are poor. Using a hand-held cell phone to talk or text is the most common form of distracted driving and one that has caused countless serious injuries and deaths. The State of Ohio and many municipalities have laws restricting cell phone usage. Foster safe habits by waiting to call or text. If it can’t wait, then pull into a safe parking area first.

Get home safely and remember that there is no parking on city streets when snow levels exceed two inches. Vehicles parked in violation of this automatic “Snow Ban” are at risk of being cited and towed.

At home residents must clear snow from sidewalks to keep them passable, and keep fire hydrants clear. Snow must not be piled higher than three feet, so as not to obstruct the view of drivers or pedestrians (especially children) exiting driveways. Snow should not be pushed onto your neighbor’s property or into the street, either by you or your private contractor.

The South Euclid Lyndhurst Schools is continuing to equip our students with the necessary skills for the 21st Century, with a heightened emphasis on technology, innovation, science and math curriculum. One of the community-sponsored core values in the district’s strategic plan is to meet the demands of the future, and The South Euclid Lyndhurst Schools has successfully launched into the next phase of its ongoing technology plan, by introducing a 1-to-1 Chromebook to student ratio in grades 2 through 12. This rollout comes as the next step in the district’s 24-month technology initiative that was launched last summer and which should come to completion by the end of this calendar year. Phase I included outfitting all classrooms throughout the district with standardized resources such as Whiteboards, Sound Enhancement Systems and the Internet. The SEL Schools’ technology team has successfully installed these items in five of the district’s buildings, and is finalizing the final building.

The next phase of the district’s technology rollout extends the concept of standardization to the devices on which students complete their school tasks. All students in grades 2 through 12 will have their very own Chromebook on which they will work throughout the school day. The supplied device will provide each student access to educational materials needed for achievement during the school year. The Chromebook will allow student access to the G Suite (Google Classroom) for Education, Progress Book and other web-based educational tools required by the curriculum. The Chromebook is an educational tool and not intended for gaming, social media/networking or

high-end computing. Students who are in grades kindergarten through 1st will have a bank of Chromebooks that will be made available to them throughout the day.

Exposing students to a technology-rich classroom environment prepares them for life after their educational experience in the SEL Schools. Doing so is also a research-based best practice. With the hope of equipping our students to compete in a global society, the SEL Schools intends to bring educational innovation and a collaborative spirit to the classroom. Already, each building has hosted a 1:1 parent meeting where students and their parents attended to learn about the usage policy for these Chromebooks, commonly accepted do’s and don’ts for the devices and other pertinent information.

Ultimately, the mission of the 1:1 program for the South Euclid Lyndhurst School District is to create a collaborative learning environment, through the utilization of district approved technology, for all students. This environment will enable and support students and staff to implement transformative uses

of technology while enhancing students’ engagement with content and promoting the development of self-directed, responsible lifelong learners and users. Students will transition from consumers of information to creative producers and owners of knowledge capable of competing in, and contributing to, a global society.

HistoryHistory

The Brush family’s Walnut Hills Farm.

We’ve heard his name for decades; he invented the arc light and is the father of modern, wind generated electricity. We are the “Brush Arcs!”

In 1926, why was first Brush High Principal Karl Keller inspired to name our new high school after this particular man? What was his place in history? What was his personal story?

Taken from a manuscript by his friend and Plain Dealer reporter Fred C. Kelly….

“The big fellow being bedeviled by a gang of boys was an especially desirable target because he was disinclined to hit back. Always embarrassed about his size, he was for peace at almost any price. Any other boy in the schoolyard had rare opportunity to show his bravery by picking on the larger and more powerful than himself, for he could do so with what he believed to be safety.

But one day something totally unexpected occurred. One of the boys threw a rotten apple at the big fellow and hit him in the eye. Instantly he forsook his pacifism. He seized the boy who had thrown the apple and gave him a wallop, which nearly put him to sleep. Then he promised similar retribution to every boy who had joined in the general hilarity. Before hitting anyone else though, he paused to make this proposal: “If you’ll all stand up against the fence and let me throw rotten apples at you, for as long as I want to, then I won’t clean up on the rest of you.

The whole group accepted the offer. There were nine of them and any two could have restrained the big boy, but all were too astonished to think of that.”

Their submission marked a turning point in his life.None was more surprised than he over his ability to assert

himself. From that day on he had all the self-confidence he could use. He had no more fear of people nor any kind of obstacle. Parenthetically, he no longer felt embarrassed over being larger than most people and he grew into one of the finest physical specimens of the race--six feet two, broad-shouldered, with a deep chest and straight as an arrow.

There was something regal about his appearance. When he was receiving his decoration as a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, at Paris in 1881, Gambetta, the French statesman, remarked: “I do not know which to admire most, his extraordinary mental talents or his magnificent physique!”

Charles Francis Brush was born the youngest of eight children to Isaac Elbert Brush and Delia Williams Phillips, on March 17, 1849. He spent his youth on his family’s Walnut Hills Farm, located about 10 miles east of Cleveland. His curious mind set him apart from his peers, as the 12 year old built his first static electric machine from materials gathered from the farm. With his keen knowledge of science and electricity, his parents sent him to Cleveland’s Central High School, where he graduated with honors in 1867. Borrowing the tuition from his uncle, young Charles enrolled at the University of Michigan. There he accelerated his education, graduating in June 1869, after only two years.

After graduation he became an analytical and consulting chemist in Cleveland. It didn’t work out for him professionally and soon after he was marketing pig-iron with childhood friend Charles Bingham. It was at this time that he bumped into another childhood friend, George Stockly, who was vice-president and general manager of the Telegraph Supply Company of Cleveland.

Brush shared his experimentations and ideas relating to electricity and especially arc-lighting with Stockly. His arc-lighting system would need an efficient means of generating electricity, which he proposed to do by using dynamo technology. Stockly was impressed and agreed to finance his experiments. Telegraph Supply Company also supplied the labs and materials used for the preliminary work.

Brush worked on his dynamo part time initially, still

working in iron ore sales. He completed his first dynamo in the summer of 1876, while staying at his Walnut Hills Farm. His power source was a horse drawn treadmill, the irony not lost as it generated electricity from the first turn. He returned to Telegraph Supply Company that fall, and continued the development of his lighting system. With his patent issued April 24, 1877 and realizing his need for focus on his project, he quit his sales job.

Brush’s dynamo provided both an efficient and economical source of electricity, a key component in his developing arc -light system. Now he turned his attention to the problematic component, the arc –light.

Arc- lighting was not new. The problem was maintaining a constant gap between the carbon electrodes. As electricity passed between them the result was the intense, bright light and the consequent burning off of the carbon material. A specific gap was required to maintain the brilliant light and the mechanical means to achieve that gap was a challenge to him. Many had tried, with varying, substandard results. Brush’s simple “ring clutch” and electromagnetic advance, cured the problem. But he wasn’t finished. He included other design improvements; he added copper plated electrodes, regulators for operation of multiple lamps connected in a series to one dynamo, and extended operation/double carbon arc lamps.

He installed his first commercial arc light system, at the private home of Dr. Longworth in Cincinnati, January of 1878. It lit the night and his fame grew. But his demonstration on Cleveland’s Public Square, April 29, 1879, where he lit twelve street lamps as an experimental and promotional tool, was his professional mountaintop. With the dynamo housed at the nearby Telegraph Supply Company, the crowd reaction

inspired this Plain Dealer account; “At five minutes before eight o’clock there was a flicker in the lamp nearest the Telegraph Supply Company’s headquarters and immediately the twelve lights beamed forth from their various stations. The lamp posts are much higher than the gas posts, making the electric lamps like beacon lights.

Thousands of people had gathered to witness the scene and as the light shot around and through the park a shout was raised. Presently the Grays Band struck up in the pavilion and soon afterward a section of artillery on the lake shore began firing a salute in honor of the occasion.

The light varied some in intensity at intervals, when shining brightest being so dazzling as to be painful to the eyes to look long at a lamp. In color it is a purplish hue, not unlike moonlight, and by contrast making the gaslights in

the store windows look a reddish yellow. Some people had raised their expectations too high and were disappointed because it was not as light as day, but most people seemed struck with admiration, both by the novelty and brilliancy of the scene.”

Brush was empowered and orders poured in. His arc lights soon lit the streets of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Montreal, Buffalo, San Francisco and many European cities. In 1880 they expanded the Telegraph Supply Company and it soon became the Brush Electric Company. In 1889 they merged with the Thompson-Houston Electric Company. Merging again, in 1891, with the Edison General Electric Company, it became General Electric which is still part of Cleveland to this day.

At this point Brush retired from the electricity business, never to return. The arc light had made him famous and wealthy. He had married Mary Ellen Morris, in 1875 and had three children; Edna, Helene and Charles Jr. By 1884, his mansion on Cleveland’s famed “Millionaire’s Row” was complete. Located at 3725 Euclid Avenue, it included a large lab in the basement. As he held the patent for electrical power by windmill generation, he built a 60 foot tall windmill on the property and became the first homeowner to supply all his electrical needs from wind power. This also gave birth to the green concept of conservation.

His home was indeed his castle. When his beloved wife Mary died in 1902 and after his children had moved on, he immersed himself in both his experiments and reaping awards and accolades from all over the world. But his love of his home and the fear that it would crumble in time gave him pause. He willed that if his family ceased to use the house as their home that it should be razed complete. When he died of pneumonia on June 15, 1929, shortly after his 80th birthday, the house was torn down and sold as scrap for $300.00. That

bullied, gentle giant, now a giant among great American inventors, was at rest.

As to why the late Karl Keller chose Charles F. Brush as his new high school’s namesake….I would speculate that the success story of a local farm boy and youngest of eight children, who would in time become such a self made genius and invent a product that would help all of mankind step out of the darkness, is the true meaning of “the American success story.” Surely THAT is an inspiring character, one worthy to have a great high school named for him. Karl Keller was right.

History

�e irony of historical context never ceases to amaze me...

As we planned the Home Day centennial celebration of Lyndhurst’s oldest resident, 103 year old Marie Spiegel Kreger, complete with the Lolly the Trolley

ride in the Sunday parade, she took a fall 2 days before her big day. Then, as old timers can do, complications set in and shortly after, she slipped away to the ages.

She was a Richmond Road girl, born and raised in the same house, across from where Ridgebury Road now intersects. Her daddy was the late John Spiegel, who had one of the earliest businesses in Lyndhurst (then Euclid Township). She attended the Red Schoolhouse, the Lyndhurst Village School and Brush High School and stayed in her old farmstead after she married, to raise her own kids.

Her mind was still sharp as she answered my questions about Lyndhurst’s past, she just couldn’t hear much (a problem we share) as I chatted with her. I’m glad I had the foresight and opportunity to speak with her those several times. By including her story in my historical writings, she enabled me to give a personal sense of what Lyndhurst was like back at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. It will also keep her memory alive to all that may read my writings in the future. She was a nice lady.

“Y” not be happy?Sooner than we know it, snow will be on the ground.

Shorter days with less sunlight and colder temperatures are a few of the reasons why at this time

of year a lot of people suffer from the ‘winter blues’. The good news is there are ways to combat this feeling.

Use these suggestions to help you make it through until spring:

-Exercise at the Hillcrest Family YMCA: Exercise isn’t only for weight loss and staying healthy — it’s also great for relieving stress. The effects of a good workout can last for several hours after you leave the gym. You will feel more energetic, your metabolism will stay elevated and your mood will improve thanks to the release of endorphins.

-Eat Smarter: What you put in your body is just as important as moving your body. Good, wholesome, home cooked meals are always a better option than take out and fast food. Even just planning your weekly dinners out is a step in the right direction.

-Volunteer your time: You know the feeling – the warm, fuzzy one you get when you do something good? Turns out, it’s also good for your health. A growing body of research shows that giving a gift, as well as volunteering or donating

to a good-cause, has a positive impact on your physical and mental health, contributing to a longer life. Learn about volunteer opportunities www.clevelandYMCA.org

-Relax: Try to spend a few minutes each day doing nothing. Read a book or magazine, sleep in on the weekend, go to bed early, try meditation, or take a yoga class at the YMCA. Relaxation and mental exercises like meditation and positive thinking can help with depression.

-Embrace the season: Just because its wintertime doesn’t mean you have to stay cooped up inside! There are plenty of outdoor activities you can enjoy. Sledding, Ice Skating, taking a hike, the possibilities are endless! Just remember to bundle up and keep warm!

-SELREC: The Hillcrest Family YMCA is committed to making our community as healthy and strong as ever and that’s why we’ve partnered with SELREC (the South Euclid Lyndhurst Recreation Consortium) for the past 7 years. We offer more than 500 courses to children, youth, adults and seniors. From computer classes, to Kick Boxing & paper crafting to Pickle ball, there’s something for everyone.

Menorah on May�eld!

For the past several years Rabbi Mendy Friedman, of Chabad Family Center, and his wife Chaya have hosted a wonderful public Chanukah celebration at Lyndhurst

City hall complete with a beautiful Menorah that is a prominent part of the City’s holiday display.

The holiday of Chanukah symbolizes light overpowering darkness. This year Chanukah will be celebrated from Tuesday night, December 12th through December 20th.

The entire Lyndhurst community is welcome to attend a public Chanukah celebration, organized by the Chabad Family Center, on Wednesday December 13th from 6:00 to 7:00 pm. This free event features delicious Chanukah refreshments and music – a fun and joyous event for the entire family!

This year we will be featuring a beautiful new Menorah that has been provided through the generosity of Yisrael and Avigail Harris, owners of BNH Enterprises – a real estate development company that had its start in Lyndhurst.

Plan to join us for this year’s Menorah on Mayfield!

What to do about the Holiday Blues

Do you love the holidays? Are you the person that starts planning decorations and outfits in October, creating menus for numerous holiday gatherings

while shopping for Thanksgiving, dusting off family traditions and creating new ones and making sure every detail is taken care of when company arrives? We are all programmed to see the “Holiday Season” – that time from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Eve – as a happy time filled with get-togethers between friends, neighbors, and family. They should be a time of celebration and joy; a time to remind us all of the wonderful things life has bestowed upon us.

Unfortunately for some of our older family members, friends and neighbors, this special time of the year can be a time that is less than joyful. Financial, health and physical worries can overshadow the season; spouses and friends who are no longer with us are missed and for some, isolation and loneliness mark the days.

So how can we help make everyone’s holidays more enjoyable?

Take time during these hectic days to have a real conversation with your older relative or friend. Give them an opportunity to share their thoughts and feelings about what might be making them sad, but don’t be too

insistent. If they want to share stories about times past, actively listen and reflect with them. Let them know their experiences matter. Offer help to keep traditions alive. For example, you can assist with decorations or record some family recipes or even create new traditions to make this year’s holiday meaningful.

You can encourage older relatives, friends or neighbors to get involved with activities outside of the house. CPA has a full calendar of activities, gatherings, meals and more throughout the month of December. Check our website, www.communitypartnershiponaging.org for the latest updates. Our Facebook page is also a good source of information.

If you have concerns about an older person in your life, during the holidays or any other time, please give us a call and we can connect you with one of our outreach staff who are experienced in many of the issues that older people face.

Remember, “Holiday Blues” are usually a temporary state. If the low mood, low energy, tearfulness, disrupted sleep or change in eating habits continues for more than a couple of weeks, please seek professional help - It may be the greatest gift you can give.

“Why I Love Lyndhurst”Local Corpus Christi students explain what makes Lyndhurst special to them.

This town will change, without a doubt, but as John F. Kennedy said “Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.” This is the greatest country and I hope in the future we will keep improving. We must keep improving and never stop. Whomever is the mayor when this capsule is revealed, I hope you put this town into a great path. There will always be problems and nothing will stop that but as long as we have people that love this country, we will be fine. This country is the greatest one, and we should keep improving.

I am living the life that my Nono (grandfather) wanted, and because of his bravery, I will live the greatest life possible. I do not know who is part of the local government but I do know they work very hard because of how well this this town runs. I am truly living the American Dream!

-Roman D.

I love living here and I can’t wait to hopefully read this in the future and reflect on the things I did here as a kid. But, I probably won’t have the chance to read this in the future because for one thing, I don’t know when they will open the time capsule back up and I might be in college by then but I will cross my fingers. Second of all, for all I know, I will be living across the country; third, I won’t even remember that this exists. So, me in the future or whomever is reading this in the future, who knows when. I hope that the future of this town is bright and good and nice and all other good things. Best wishes and good luck in life. I can’t wait to see it. Also, if Jordan is reading this, what are you doing?!

-Jordan K.

Lyndhurst is truly a loving place full of neighbors. Everyone is filled with joy around where I live. Being a part of Lyndhurst is so important to me, especially all it has to offer. I personally enjoy our swim team, Sea Monkeys. I had so much fun and made so many new friends from the team. I could live here forever and I know so many people have! It’s a great neighborhood for all ages, which is why I’ve made so many friends here.

Family is the best way to represent Lyndhurst. Many kids from my school, Corpus Christi Academy, live in Lyndhurst. Everyone you meet is so kind to each other and we all share so many memories together. There is so much fun to have in Lyndhurst, because there is always some sort of fun activity for us. When we are brought together in these different events, it’s never a dull moment because everyone seems to have a smile on their face. Also, Lyndhurst has been called one of the safest neighborhoods in Cleveland!

I love Lyndhurst, even though I have several other friends from other neighborhoods, I’ll always feel a special bond with the ones close to home. It’s a safe place for new families to grow and come together as a community of happiness. Recently, I have had the pleasure of seeing the sign that states “Lyndhurst is 100!” I can’t believe that our legacy is this incredible. I can’t imagine myself growing up anywhere else. Lyndhurst will always be home to me, no matter where I am in my life.

I love living in Lyndhurst because it’s safe. I love all of the animals that live in Lyndhurst especially the chipmunks. My little sister, Peggy loves the chipmunks so much that she will call for everyone in the house to see them. I love that people are so close in Lyndhurst and that there are quiet places to stay. The parks are beautiful and lovely to visit. I love the concerts Lyndhurst has in the park and the free ice cream! My cousin and I go there all the time after night swim.

There are so many places to go in Lyndhurst, and I love to go to all of them. The pool, parks, and places to eat are just a few special places. I love to hang out at the pool, it’s one of the best places to have fun with your friends. It’s one of the best places to live in my opinion, because of all the activities that go on. There are plenty of places to grab some lunch or dinner and even breakfast. There are very few downfalls to Lyndhurst, and that’s why I love it so much.

I love Lyndhurst and I would never leave it, ever. I have found so many friends that live here and go to the schools that are here. It is just a beautiful place to live, and I believe that it is one of the funnest places in this part of Ohio. It offers so much, especially the activities that you can do with your friends and family. It’s just special even though sometimes stuff can happen to the people that live here. I will continue to stay here because it is so special. I grew up here and I know Lyndhurst like the back of my hand, and I love it here!

Your Gift of Time

Are you currently volunteering somewhere? If not, are you thinking about volunteering? Our communities benefit greatly from the work of

volunteers; volunteering is about giving, contributing, and helping other individuals and the community at large. Did you know that volunteering is also good for you? We are seeing a growing number of articles and research projects that document the personal benefits derived from volunteering, such as:

Volunteering time makes you feel like you have more time! Wharton professor Cassie Mogilner wrote in the Harvard Business Review that her research found those who volunteer their time feel like they have more of it. This is similar to other research showing that people who donate to charity feel wealthier.

Volunteering helps you have a healthier body! A Corporation for National & Community Service report noted: “Research demonstrates that volunteering leads to better health… those who volunteer have lower mortality rates, greater functional ability, and lower rates of depression later in life than those who do

not volunteer.” Comparisons of the health benefits of volunteering for different age groups have also shown that older volunteers are the most likely to receive greater benefits from volunteering. Older volunteers experience greater increases in life satisfaction and felt that there were more positive changes in their health as a result of their volunteer activities than younger volunteers.

Volunteering makes you happy! When researchers at the London School of Economics examined the relationship between volunteering and measures of happiness, they found the more people volunteered, the happier they were. Volunteering builds empathy, strengthens social bonds and makes you smile.

Non-Profit organizations such as the Community Partnership on Aging, values volunteers as critical partners to carry out the organization’s mission. If you already volunteer with us or another agency, thank you. Would you like to get involved as a volunteer? CPA offers many opportunities to share your talents, skills and smiles.

Community

From The Service Department

T he annual Lyndhurst treelawn leaf vacuuming program is ongoing and will continue through late November - early December, depending on weather and necessity. At the end of the season, if you should have small quantities of leaves, please bag them in paper yard waste bags or place them

in your designated yard waste container (“Yard Waste Only” stickers can be picked up at the Service Department or City Hall during business hours). All leaves that are collected will be composted and made into leaf humus or other soil amendments. Therefore, it is extremely important that you place all leaves on your tree lawn in piles for vacuum pick up.

Our Weekend Rubbish Program’s last weekend will be November 18th/19th, we will resume in spring 2018. If you are in need of Household Hazardous Waste disposal, bring it to the Service Department garage in the sealed original containers. Stop by our office Monday through Friday from 7:00am – 3:00pm and we will assist you.

It won’t be long until the snow begins to fall. We would like to remind you that it is prohibited to park on the street when snow accumulations exceed 2 inches. In order to properly clear the roadway from snow and ice all parked vehicles must be off the roadway. Please remind your contracted snowplow drivers that placing snow into the roadway or across sidewalks is also prohibited. We receive a high volume of calls during the winter because sidewalks are covered putting pedestrians at risk. Your continued cooperation is needed and much appreciated!
