Walk

Visitors are invited to walk or drive to each church in the order they prefer. All are handicapped accessible and the event caps off with the exciting concert and caroling at Faith Lutheran.

“Christina DuPre is the music director at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Olm-sted Falls,” said Faith Pas-tor Harrison Gapter. “We became friends when I was up in Olmsted Falls, and we have used the minis-try to promote the Gospel of Jesus Christ. She came up with this international group called the Answer Generation, and the focus is, Jesus is the Answer.

“She has performed in different cities in Spain

and at a youth gathering for the Pope,” Gapter con-tinued. “And she’s going to perform here for us. It’s a good mix where people of all ages will be blessed by this music. The theme of our concert is, ‘Prepare the Way.’ We’ll prepare our hearts to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus.”

DuPre says she will bring about five singers and musicians to perform in Millersburg.

“Some of the songs will be from a contemporary musi-cal I’m writing,” DuPre said. “We’ll mix it up with some familiar things for people to enjoy as well.”

The Candlelight Walk coordinator, Kate Findley, says the event continues to grow in popularity every year, but a lot depends on

the weather.“The first year we had

probably 100 people,” Find-ley said. “But we’ve had about 150 to 200 people each year since, depending on the weather and other activities going on in the community.

“With only four churches

taking part this year, people are invited to stay a little longer in the churches and relax if they want to,” she continued. “Each church will have something differ-ent. Our choir will be per-forming at the Presbyteri-an Church, some churches have piano players or cello

players. And there will be light snacks offered at each stop.”

Findley adds that she looks forward to people coming out and visiting.

“It’s a fun night to come out and experience the his-tory of the churches, the fel-lowship and friendship and a little bit of musical enter-tainment,” she said.

Karma is selling by the bushel and bag fullI’m not going to pull any

punches here; I hate sell-ing stuff for my kids for school. Hate it. A strong word, I know, but the thought of pushing but-ter braids and chocolate-covered-whatevers on my friends and co-workers simply makes me crazy.

And let’s face it, this is exactly what happens when your kid is sent home with a glossy sales brochure and a 50-blank order form. There might as well be a sticker on the front that says, Instruc-tions: Call all of your nearby relatives for their obligatory orders then hand this brochure to your mother or father so they can drag it into work to shake down all of the people who made them buy $5 boxes of cookies and $20 tins full of gour-met popcorn last spring.

I know what you’re thinking so I’ll just say it myself, “Shame on you, John Lorson! You know

that each of these fund-raisers is for a very good cause so just buck up and get it done!”

You’re absolutely right. Kid’s clubs and organi-zations are typically left with few other options for paying their own way, so a good bit of this stuff is undeniably essential. I don’t contest that at all but what I do bristle at is the types of “stuff” the kids so often end up hav-ing to push.

As a parent with just over a year-and-a-half left to go in my own two-decade long school-kid fundraising career I believe I am amply quali-fied to commentate on the subject. Let’s face it; the last thing that big, old

Aunt Elsie needs is to be guilted into buying a 15,000 calorie cheese ball or a pumpkin roll packed with enough fat to power a biodiesel Prius on a cross country trip to Port-land and back.

Don’t get me wrong. I’ll generally sell (and buy) the stuff regard-less because I know it’s all a part of the parent-ing game. Besides, that cheeseball will feed the birds for three weeks and the pumpkin roll? That’ll glow in the chimenea for a good two hours!

Most recently I’ve had the pleasure of assisting Sylvia in the peddling of a product line that is both non-toxic and a reason-ably good value — citrus fruit for her high school’s Earth Science Club. Even as a proclaimed hater of fundraising I have zero philosophical qualms with offering delicious oranges, grapefruit and tangelos to masses.

Still, as wonderful as these offerings may be, I know that each sale comes with a down side. My friend Magnus point-ed this out as he signed up for a case of mixed

fruit.“Don’t consider this a

sale,” he said dryly. “Con-sider it a karma deposit for when I come knock-ing. I’ve got a baby and a 4-year-old at home.

This $32 case of fruit is going to pay for itself 10 times over in the next few years!”

Sounds like my back-yard birds will be living big!

Perfect puzzles rediscoveredMy mom tells the same

story every time some-one mentions doing a jigsaw puzzle. “Reminds me of the time,” she starts, smiling as she talks, “that we had the card table set up in the family room. You left for school and I sat down and thought I’d put in a couple of pieces and the next thing I knew, the bus dropped you off!”

She goes on to remi-nisce how when the puz-zle was out, housework went out the window, and nothing went into the oven. “Just one more piece,” she said.

A person who enjoys puzzles of all sorts (and who comes by it hon-estly,) I have accrued a number of them over the years. It seems people who love me thought I would enjoy them, not realizing that as a busy mother of three young

children I was lucky to find clothes that matched let alone the time to assemble 1,000 tiny pieces of cardboard.

That is, if they weren’t lost or if not consumed by greedy and curious tiny hands. Or the dog. Not to mention that every square inch of flat space in my house was overtaken by something that wasn’t supposed to be there.

But as the children grow, their toys get fewer and smaller, and I have been able to slowly reclaim parts of my home that had been pre-viously surrendered. True to my roots, I moved a

number of plastic bins that hold plastic pieces of plastic toys and set up a small table in our front room.

In the hopes for winter, I chose a puzzle from the closet with snowmen decorating a beautifully lit tree and set it out one busy day, unable to even open the box.

That night I came home late from a meet-ing to find the front light on, tween music blasting from a tiny speaker and all three kids and my husband pouring over the puzzle from every side.

“We’ve been in here all night,” he said. “I can’t believe how much fun the kids are having.”

And so it has become our latest and greatest family hobby, this assem-bling of a giant picture slashed into hundreds of pieces. It takes no batter-

ies. It makes no sound. One does not need to ever charge it. It is multi-player, mulit-sensory, multi-houred fun on the cheap.

I have found myself waking up early and tiptoeing out of bed to make a silent cup of tea and settling in for, you know, “just one more piece.”

As expected, I have skipped cleaning and other responsibilities because of this thing. I almost missed picking up a kid from school, but in fact I love those little people so much, I let my daughter put in the last piece of the Christmas tree.

Then we ripped it all apart and got out anoth-er box.

Farm management seminar series set to beginProducers new to

farming, beginning farm managers or farm managers who want to re-focus on the finan-cial management of their farm business will benefit from participat-ing in the 2016 Farm Management Seminar series.

The goal of the pro-gram is to help young and beginning farmers learn how to become financially savvy and how to make their agri-cultural operation suc-

cessful. In the current agricultural climate of low commodity prices and rising input costs, financial management is important to help farmers determine which parts of their farm operation are profitable or not profit-

able.This program will help

participants develop skills to analyze enter-prise costs and to work with agricultural lend-ers. Based on that infor-mation they can decide if changes are needed, if the enterprise should continue, or if other options should be con-sidered.

The farm management seminar series will be held Thursday eve-nings Jan. 7, 14, 21 and 28 and Feb. 4, 7-9 p.m. The seminar series will feature a mix of on-site presenters and off-site webinar presenters.

Presenters include OSU Extension educa-tors, Extension special-ists and representatives from local agricultural financial institutions. The farm management seminar series will be held in the commis-sioner’s meeting room located in the Wayne County Administration building, 428 W. Lib-erty St., Wooster. Top-ics that will be covered include are: Jan. 7 — What Is the Mission of Your Farming Opera-tion, Making Record Keeping Do More Than the Tax Return; Jan. 14 — Developing Your Balance Sheet, Basics of Finance; Jan. 21 — Developing Your Busi-

ness Plan; Jan. 28 — Farm Transition Plan-ning; and Feb. 4 — Ag Law 101.

The farm management seminar series is spon-sored by Farm Cred-it Mid-America and Farmers National Bank.

Registration is $50 and includes handouts and a light supper.

Contact me at 330-264-8722 or [email protected] for more information or a regis-tration form. The dead-line to register is Jan. 1. An informational flier and registration form is available at http://go.osu.edu/farmmgmt-seminar. Registration is limited to the first 30 paid registrants.

Learning to enjoy the vicissitudes of life

To “tack” is to follow a zigzag course. Currently I must tack in my house around boxes, plastic containers and all sorts of things that are com-pletely out of place. The reason — remodel-ing my bathroom. The purpose in doing all this is to “ameliorate” — make it better or more tolerable. When it is all done, my shower, washer and dryer will be upstairs and my life will be more tolerable because I won’t have to go up and down stairs so much.

All of this upheaval has me in a “ferment”— a state of unrest and disorderly development and it looks like I am going to be that way for a while. I am “discom-bobulated” — upset and frustrated and it has been a “kerfuffle” — disturbance to my every day routine. I have been told to just enjoy life’s “vicissitudes”— ups and downs, as I can’t change it anyway. I will just have to “adapt” — make fit, usually by altera-tion. In other words, get used to it! I will have to put up with the “hia-tus” — interruption in time or continuity. All of this has definitely been an interruption in my time, including the time I get up in the morning, since I must be up, dressed, and have my routine in the bath-room done before the workers arrive early. As a retired person that has definitely created a “brouhaha” — uproar! I just hope I don’t get the “collywobbles” — upset stomach!

All of the pounding, ripping, hammering, sawing, nailing, dust, piles of dirt, mud, and

interruptions to my regular schedule does “agitate” — emotional-ly disturb me. I will do my best to not be “can-tankerous” — hard to deal with, as this proj-ect goes along. I don’t want to wind up in the “hoosegow” — jail for protesting to all of the problems and turmoil. Some days I would just like to “absquatulate” — flee the place. But I am not a “flibbertigib-bet” — silly or flighty person, so I will hang in there until this remod-eling project is done. I have to endure all these changes in my life just because I am “senes-cent” — getting old!

There has been a

“crescendo” — gradual increase in the prob-lems that have had to be dealt with. My house is “superannuated” — old and timeworn. Every day we seem to find one more thing that is wrong and needs to be fixed before we can move on. What we thought was a carefully planned out remodel-ing of the bathroom has turned into a “doozy” — extraordinary one of a kind job! I am “san-guine” — confident the contractor is going to eventually get the job done and that it will be nice. He is not a “blun-derbuss” — careless person when it comes to his work. When it is all done I will be filled with “felicity” — hap-piness. When it is fin-ished and looks so mod-ern and nice, I may just have a “hootenanny” — folk singing event and party to celebrate!

“I want to thank the entire ProVia team and our valued customers for the wonderful support, trust, and hard work you have given us through the

North Carolina man on probation for bad check livestock buy

A North Carolina man on Dec. 7 was given a suspend-ed jail sentence for writing bad checks for livestock at a local auction.

Robert Franklin Neese, 47, of 4706 Willard Kidd Lane, Graham, pleaded guilty in

Holmes County Common Pleas Court to petty theft, a charge that was reduced from a felony in exchange for his guilty plea.

He was sentenced to six months in the Holmes County Jail. Neese was given credit for 55 days served, with the balance of the jail term suspended

in favor of a year of pro-bation. As a condition of probation, Neese must pay restitution, court costs and a $250 fine.

The charge stems from a Feb. 19, 2014, incident when Neese purchased livestock for which he wrote three checks, totaling $6,763.43, on an account that lacked

sufficient funds.Contacted by the busi-

ness to make good on his financial obligation, Neese failed to do so, prompting an April 2014 call to the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office, according to Chief Deputy Richard Haun.

Neese was contacted by phone by a deputy, who

advised him to pay his obligation. Again, he failed to comply, prompting the deputy to forward the case

to the Holmes County Prosecutor’s Office, which brought the charge, said Haun.

The holiday weekend stuffed full table fareAfter a solid week of

over indulging, I feel like a beached whale. I noticed the water aero-bics class had an unusu-ally large attendance today so I must not be the only one who feels this way.

First there was a ban-quet at church on Mon-day night. Then there was some sampling of food in my kitchen while making things for Thanksgiving. Apparent-ly those calories count, too. Thursday was a day of stuffing — us, not the turkey.

Son-in-law Jason and friend Caleb invested in a restaurant-style deep fryer a few years ago and like to use it once in a while. The new-est tradition is to make onion rings for Thanks-giving. This year they added corn dogs, cheese and deep fried Oreos to the menu. The younger kids in attendance were impressed — we tradi-tionalists, not so much.

Friday night was our customary pizza night at the Strongs’ — with

a twist. Instead of bak-ing the pizza it was made into “pockets” and deep fried. Just what we need-ed.

Saturday was our annual Ohio State vs. Michigan football game party. I always make sloppy Joes, accompa-nied with lots of chips, soda pop and brownies. Once again Jason’s team was defeated.

We go out to lunch after church on Sunday and this week used our gift card to Applebee’s. We were both full after consuming the Caesar salad that was part of our “2 for $20” meal. I ordered lime fiesta chicken, which came with rice, and The Man of the House got riblets with the house potato chips. We left stuffed. Ugh.

Now the trick will be

to eat less and exercise more.

At the moment I am a bit constrained with exercise having pulled something in my lower back. That’s what hap-pens when you get impa-tient and don’t wait for a strong man to lift your little fake Christmas tree and carry it across the room.

The poor tree is not all that big but sits in a rath-er heavy (apparently) ceramic pot. After sev-eral trips up and down from our attic in Ohio and two moves in South Carolina this tree is becoming worse for the wear. In fact, I noticed today while walking past it, that it has a definite lean to it and some of the pre-wired lights are no longer functioning. It may be on its last hur-rah. Next time we will get a lighter weight tree.

We managed to survive another Black Friday. We do this by staying as far away from any stores as possible. Shop-ping has no appeal to me on any normal day,

let alone with a million crazed consumers.

When it gets to this time of year I think of the much simpler Christ-mases in the “Little House on the Prairie” series. Everyone made their gifts out of what-ever happened to be on hand. If they managed to get a few extra things like an orange or a stick of candy for their stock-ing they were delighted.

Where have we gone wrong with our over-indulgence?

Shiloh got his Christ-mas gift early this year. We discovered he had a round, raw spot on his flank that we feared was ringworm. (That’s what happens when you use the Internet to make a diagnosis at home.)

It was a relief to learn from the vet it was only a “hot spot,” which required an injection, some powder to apply to the spot twice a day, and two weeks worth of antibiotics. So, that is his $169 gift, which is more than we would spend on any one person.

West Holmes boy admits to making bomb threat

An 11-year-old West Holmes Middle School student on Monday, Dec. 7 admitted he was the one who wrote a bomb threat in a boys’ bathroom at the school on Oct. 21.

The boy was found to be delinquent by virtue of inducing panic by Holmes County Juvenile Judge Thomas Lee. He was advised of the potential penalties, which include probation, detention,

community service and counseling, and he was immediately placed on probation pending dispo-sition on Jan. 12.

Throughout the hear-ing, the boy gave clear and audible responses to Lee’s questioning and, when asked what is expected of him dur-ing the pre-disciplinary phase, he said, “Good behavior. Nothing like this that could harm or break the law.”

He was identified as the responsible party

seven days after the incident, which brought law enforcement to the school and prompted evacuation of students and staff, according to Holmes County Assistant Prosecutor Sean Warner.

He said the boy recanted his initial statement that he was made by another to write the threat, and eventually told investiga-tors he wrote the threat in an attempt to get another boy in trouble, said War-ner.

He was not among those

initially interviewed, but was identified after inves-tigators and school offi-cials had an opportunity to review video footage of the restroom entrance, said Chief Deputy Rich-ard Haun of the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office.

The Sheriff’s Office was called to the West Holm-es Middle School on Oct. 21 at 1:42 p.m. after staff were made aware of the threat, which was written in pencil onto the wall of a boys’ restroom, said Haun.

The threat included no specific device or loca-tion, but did make refer-ence to a time.

Students were evacu-ated to the football sta-dium along with staff, said Haun.

Deputies, assisted by the Summit County Bomb Squad and bomb-detecting K-9s, searched the school for a possible incendiary or explo-sive device, said Haun. Nothing suspicious was found and the school was cleared around 4:30 p.m.

Members of Holmes Fire District No. 1 also were on scene to assist.

Haun said the Summit County Bomb Squad and K-9 Unit have submitted invoices for their servic-es, which can be charged back to the boy and his family, if he is found guilty.

Former Killbuck council member clears alleyway

Former Killbuck council member Jeremy Scheetz has taken steps to clear the alleyway that led to his resignation from coun-cil last month.

Mayor Denny Hahn reported Scheetz Recy-cling has contacted him a couple of times.

“They’ve done a better job to keep the alleyway clean,” Hahn said. “They are working with some-one else. Now you can see there’s a big Dumpster down there where a lot of the stuff will go. It’s off

the alley.“He let me know today

that there’s a tractor there now, that he’s repairing to load vehicles on and dif-ferent things like that,” the mayor continued. “He appears to be making a very good effort to get things cleaned up, and he seems to be moving for-ward in the right way.”

Solicitor Julie Dreher attended the meeting to update council on the sta-tus of the vacant building ordinance.

“I did a lot of research online to see what other villages are doing,” Dre-her said. “It’s pretty con-

sistent. The registration process is being done con-sistently across villages in charging the fee for that. Some are more aggressive than others and I think that’s a good combina-tion.”

Hahn said council can kick off 2016 with the new ordinance.

Dreher attended a con-ference on public nui-sances and said villages have an option of either enforcing an ordinance or pursuing a nuisance abatement action in court. “A lot of municipalities prefer that in some cases where there are no up-

front costs other than liti-gation, which sometimes can be expensive,” she said. “When taking mat-ters into their own hands, cities are finding out they have to chase the money. Whereas, if they get a court order right away and get the other person to take care of it, it went a little faster. It all depends on the owner and their resources.”

“One of the houses in town, banks out of state, a bank in California could probably care less about an old house sitting in little Killbuck,” Councilwoman Lisa Kauffman said. “Do

you think this will help us in getting them to try and do something with these homes?”

Dreher suggested if the home is bank owned, and if the village incurred the up front expense of fixing the problem or they get fined, there is an option of foreclosing on a lien.

“They’ll either lose their investment or deal with it,” Dreher said. “I think bank-owned, there might be some hope there. We can certainly look at each circumstance and evalu-ate it.”

Kauffman said there have been three or four homes that have been vacant for several years, and one went to sheriff’s sale.

“It sold and the sher-iff gave the money back because the house was that bad,” Hahn said. “That one is owned by Kevin Shaffer, of Fish-kill, N.Y. The auditor said that’s the first time she

ever remembered giving money back. I was hoping to get it so I could tear it down. He’s gone and he just doesn’t care.”

Resident Rusty Hawkins, who sought council’s approval earlier in the year to put in a mobile home in town, followed up with the required repairs and brought pictures to show what was done. He said he put new skirting around the home.

Brian Rippeth said he would meet with Hawkins before the next meeting to measure out his planned placement of another building on his property, possibly a double-wide.

“We’ll get Brian’s report and get back to you,” Hahn told Hawkins.

In other business, Hahn reported the tree light-ing went well with a good turnout.

Furin denies shooting at men near river

A Big Prairie man denies he fired shots after becom-ing angered by men urinat-ing near his property.

Shawn F. Furin, 48, of 7027 Township Road 501, pleaded not guilty in Hol-mes County Common Pleas Court to having weapons while under dis-ability, improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle, assault, using weapons while intoxicated and two counts of aggra-vated menacing.

If convicted, Furin faces up to 4½ years in prison.

The charges stem from

incidents occurring Aug. 29, when just before 5 p.m. the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office received multiple calls of shots being fired, coupled with a physical confrontation, along County Road 23 in Knox Township, said Chief Deputy Richard Haun.

They were advised the suspect had fled the area, but acting on a description of his vehicle, they stopped Furin near the intersection of County Road 23 and Township Road 211, said Haun, noting the officer detected an odor of alco-hol coming from Furin.

Questioned by the dep-uty, Furin said he became

upset when he observed three men urinating into the water on the oppo-site bank of the Mohican River. He said he yelled at them to stop and then proceeded to that side of the river where one of the men threw a rock at him, said Haun.

Furin admitted he fired a couple of shots from a .40-caliber Smith and Wesson handgun into the ground, Haun said. The gun was seized from inside the vehicle, where the offi-cer located it.

Field sobriety tests were administered and Furin’s blood-alcohol content was tested at 0.047, below the

permissible level for driv-ing, but indicative of intox-ication incompatible with the handling of a firearm, Haun said.

A 1987 burglary con-viction in Wayne County prohibits Furin from pos-sessing or using a firearm altogether, according to the criminal indictment filed Nov. 16.

Furin, free on bond, is next scheduled to appear in court for a Feb. 16 pretri-al conference. A jury trial is scheduled for March 28.

Make the holidays better with easy appetizers(StatePoint) Love to

entertain but maybe not so much to cook? Like to have a houseful of guests but not a sinkful of pots and pans?

Small, easy to prepare appetizers can make parties a snap. Called “small plates” on res-taurant menus, flavorful Mediterranean-inspired appetizers are simple and tasty combinations of bold flavors. Here are some savory tips to make beautiful, no-fuss holiday party fare:

• Stock the pantry: Prep pantry shelves by stocking up on assorted jarred items like roast-ed red peppers, capers, pickles, pickled vegeta-bles, sliced and whole pitted olives as well as tasty premade pestos or tomato based dips.

• Make olives a center-piece ingredient: Olives have the power to dou-ble as an essential part of the healthful Medi-terranean diet, and be a party centerpiece. With pitted, seasoned, stuffed and jarred varieties, you have the makings of a

festive, ready-to-serve party plate.

For a fast option, serve an assortment in a colorful bowl or small Mason jar. For guests’ ease, serve pitted olives, so they won’t have to worry about disposing the pits. For example, those from Pearls Spe-cialties are available at Walmart, Target, Kroger and other grocery stores nationwide.

• Say cheese: Pick up a selection of cheeses, choosing hard clas-sic cheddars, feta, fresh mozzarella, soft aged cheeses such brie, as well as cream cheese.

• Support your baker: Take the time to seek out a great local artisan baker for a wonderful crusty Italian ciabatta loaf, a seeded baguette, a whole grain dark rye or a tangy sourdough.

Use slices as a base to emulate trendy res-taurants and cafes that serve “toasts” topped with flavorful combina-tions. In a pinch? Crack-ers work great, too.

• Go nuts: Combina-

tions of crunchy pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts and cashews are delicious with everything. For a shortcut, get packaged candied or spiced blends.

• Veg out: A trip to the produce aisle provides colorful inspiration and loads of tasty choices for an elegant veggie plat-ter. Add fruits too. Sweet grapes and apples are a perfect complement to salty items.

Combine with dips, spreads, cheeses and olives. Dark, flavor-ful Kalamata olives are delicious combined this way and make a great base for a tapenade.

• Just sticks, no stones: Use bamboo skewers for excellent presenta-tion and make snacking easy on guests. Layer on whole, pitted olives, such as the large and meaty Pearls Garlic Stuffed Queen Olives, slices of mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, colorful bell pep-per strips and chunks of your favorite salami. Drizzle a bit of balsamic vinegar onto your skew-

ers before serving. If you prep them ahead of time, wrap them tightly and refrigerate.

• Great drinks: On bartending duty? Gar-nish spicy or unusual gin or vodka martinis with

Pearls Jalapeno Stuffed or Blue Cheese stuffed olives for a rich, surpris-ing twist. Instead of a plain cocktail pick, use a sprig of fresh rosemary to skewer those olives.

‘Tis the season to sweeten holiday gatherings(StatePoint) Hosting

holiday celebrations can mean a lot of prepara-tion and pressure to impress.

To help, See’s Can-dies has partnered with entertaining expert, Alexandra Hedin, to develop some easy-to-execute ideas that are sure to make this year’s festivities memorably sweet and delicious.

Prepare before guests arrive

Plan seating arrange-ments ahead of time to ensure friends and family mix and mingle. You never know who will become new best friends!

Combining classic treats into your holiday décor will add an inno-vative twist to your cel-

ebrations, taking them to the next level. Place unexpected pops of sea-sonal color through-out the house by using festive candy pieces as decorative accents. See’s Foil Covered Milk Choc-olate Balls make for a nice burst of color when added to glass jars, plant-ed pots or tea lights.

Give guests a warm welcome

Kick off the party on a festive note by offering a signature cocktail, such as a Peppermint Martini. To wow guests as they enter, line a Lucite tray with candy canes and top with a piece of Plexi-glas to create a holiday-themed tray that hints to the cocktail’s contents.

Don’t forget the kids! Serve them a signature

drink of steamed milk with a See’s Candies Cinnamon Lollypop to stir in the delicious cin-namon flavor.

Invite friends and fam-ily to get comfortable at the table with a cen-terpiece of candies and cakes that they can snack on throughout the party. Remember to keep in mind that not everyone has the same tastes, so offer guests an assort-ment of milk and dark chocolates, eggnog truf-fles, gourmet lollypops, and peppermint patties.

Always make sure to serve candy and choco-lates made with high-quality ingredients. American-made deli-cious, See’s Candies is one of the few remaining candy makers that ages its chocolate — a process that imparts a smooth-er, mellower flavor and elevates the overall taste experience. It’s a must-have for hosts this holi-day season.

Keep guests enter-tained

To keep guests enter-tained, play a fun game of tic-tac-toe. It’s a game people of all ages enjoy, especially if you use fes-tive holiday truffles as

the game pieces!To keep little ones busy

at the children’s table, have them make a candy cane ornament out of felt, Ric Rac, jewels, and candy canes. It’s easy and fun, and makes a great gift for grandparents.

End the Festivities on a sweet note

As guests head home, make sure they don’t go empty-handed! Wrap treats in a festive box and place them near the door – it’s the perfect way to end the festivities on a sweet note.

See’s Candies offers treats in a variety of sizes and price ranges that are sure to fit within your entertaining bud-get and satisfy each of your guests. You can find See’s at holiday gift cen-ter locations in major malls nationwide or at www.Sees.com. For more gifting and entertaining tips, visit @SeesCandies on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, and Twitter or www.sees.com/Holi-dayEntertaining.

With a little planning and some simple festive touches, you can make this year’s holiday cel-ebrations a whole lot sweeter.

Breakfast with Santa

Scores of youngsters and their parents caught the Christmas spirit in a major way Saturday morning during a break-fast with Santa Claus held at the Darb Snyder Senior Center.

Sponsored by Pomerene Hospital, First-Knox Bank and Smith Ambulance, the event has the dual focus of helping kick off the Christmas season while at the same time giving back to the community.

The Breakfast with Santa was started six years ago and has snowballed ever since.

Amanda Nickles, who works in the public rela-tions and community outreach department of Pomerene Hospital, said the event tries to drive home the point that, “there is more to Christ-mas than just Santa.”

Nickles said admission to the breakfast is by donation, either monetary or in the form of non-perishable canned goods. It encompasses a mitten drive, and by the end of the morning’s festivities a Christmas tree near the entrance had been trimmed with many pairs of colorful mittens that will be donated to local families.

Georgie Cool, volun-teer director of the senior

center, said organizers planned for upward of 125 people for the breakfast and other family-friendly activities.

“I just enjoy having this building being used by the community in this man-ner, and partnering with the hospital,” Cool said.

First thing on the list for most of the children and their parents was visiting with Santa, just to make sure they were on his list.

Occupying a throne at the head of the dining area, Santa took a great deal of time with each child, getting to know them, finding out what they wanted for Christmas and posing for a photo with them before handing them a candy cane.

“I think Santa is awe-some, just fabulous,” said Stephanie Yoder, who was attending the breakfast for the first time, along with her young daugh-ters, Lillian, Aurora and Daphne.

“I thought the Polaroid pictures were really spe-cial,” Yoder said. “They make a great family mem-ory.”

In an adjacent room, kids could try their hand at Christmas-themed games and activities, including a bean bag toss, coloring pictures of Santa Claus and Rudolph, and making a Christmas ornament.

At one table Mark Smith, who works in the

surgical unit of Pomerene Hospital, along with his wife, Vicki, were roughing out reindeer ornaments. Mark used a zebra-striped glue gun to fasten togeth-er a triangular framework of Popsicle sticks, to which Vicki attached jingle bells and a small red pom-pom for the nose.

Mark said the couple had enough material to craft at least 150 of the ornaments, and halfway through the breakfast they were going strong, crank-ing one after another out for further decoration by the youngsters.

(BPT) — It may be the most wonderful time of year, but at times, it can also feel like the most stressful. This holiday season, take a fresh approach to your “to-do’s list” to save time and energy so you can be merry and bright. These 10 tips and tricks will help you relax, unwind and enjoy all the best parts of the holidays.

Wrap while shoppingIt’s a given that shop-

ping early avoids the last-minute frenzy, but you can save even more time and stress by get-ting gifts wrapped while out and about. Many department stores offer gift wrap services, all you need to do is ask.

Streamline holiday cards

Sending cards is a holiday tradition, but it shouldn’t cause unneed-ed stress. No need to worry about a dated address book - an easy trick is to cut return address labels from each card you receive and place in an envelope.

Now it’s easy to send cards to loved ones and update your address book without hassle.

Use baking hacksUsing premade foods is

one of the simplest (yet yummy) ways to create holiday bakery delights. Check out www.face-book.com/entenmanns for simple, amazing reci-pes like Entenmann’s Dreamy Chocolate Bars that feature crumbled Rich Frosted Donuts as the secret ingredient. While you’re baking, double the batch to have an extra on hand for a hostess gift.

Go tech freeSmartphones ringing,

emails beeping, texts buzzing - technology is time consuming. Avoid feeling overwhelmed by designating tech-free times for your family each day. Use this time (1-2 hours) to relax and focus on each other, per-haps with a hot cup of cocoa - the emails and messages will still be there later.

Schedule a salon visit

With a long holiday to-do list, it’s hard to find time for you. That’s why treating yourself to a haircut or mani-cure can do wonders for your holiday spirit. Plus, you’ll look and feel fan-tastic when you attend all those festive get-togethers.

Opt for an open houseHaving a holiday gath-

ering adds to the sea-son’s merriment, but where will everyone fit and how will you feed them? Instead of a for-mal dinner, opt for an open house with hors d’oeuvres. You’ll have less work and more time to spend with love ones as they come and go.

Embrace hol iday breakfasts

Start every day off right by enjoying a deli-cious breakfast with your family. No need to spend hours in the kitchen cooking; instead include iconic breakfast classics that you and the kids love. For example, scrumptious Enten-mann’s Donuts are

undeniable when paired with fresh fruit for a

quick breakfast delight. Find more breakfast

inspiration at www.face-book.com/Entenmanns.


At a nearby table Annie Boyd of Nashville, attired in a very convincing elf outfit, applied temporary Christmas-themed tattoos to the children. Boyd, who has worked in Pomerene Hospital’s dietary depart-ment for a year-and-a-half, noted Santa Claus and snowmen motifs were particularly popular, and she said she enjoyed the opportunity to give back to the community.

Back at Santa’s lap, Zac and Courtney Sigler from Millersburg brought their two young daughters, Alizah and Ellie, for the third year. The Siglers said they enjoy the breakfast and accompanying activi-ties, and believe it’s a good event for the Millersburg community as a whole.

“It brings us out and it gets us in the spirit,” Zac said.

The Kno-Ho-Co-Ash-land Community Action Commission’s Emergency HEAP program is under-way. Emergency HEAP is a federally funded program administered by the Ohio Development Services Agency, Office of Commu-nity Assistance that pro-vides financial assistance to low-income households that are threatened with discon-nection from their heating source, or have already had service disconnected. Those households serviced by a PUCO-regulated utility are encouraged to sign up for the Percentage of Income Payment Plus Plan (PIPP Plus) or an alternate bud-get payment plan in order to receive energy assistance.

Households utilizing bulk fuel must have a tank con-taining less than 25 percent of its capacity. Income docu-mentation for all household members along with social security numbers, electric and gas bills, proof of dis-ability if disabled, and other documentation must be

presented at the appoint-ment. Income guidelines are based at 175 percent of the Federal Poverty Level and are as follows: Household size of one may earn up to $20,597.50, household of two $27,877.50, household of three $35,157.50, house-hold of four $42,437.50, household of five $49,717.50 and household of six $56,997.50. Income may also be calculated using the past three months, which-ever benefits the client. Households claiming zero income will be subject to providing an IRS Verifica-tion of Non-Filing Status Transcript. Households claiming zero income for the past three years will be reviewed by the State grant-or, and every HEAP appli-cation is subject to random audit by the State Develop-ment Services Agency. PIPP Plus customers have a lower income eligibility threshold. Approved applicants will also have their application automatically transmitted to the State HEAP office,

where additional assistance may be available under the Regular HEAP program.

Eligible households may receive financial assistance once per heating season. The HEAP heating season

is Nov. 2, 2015-March 31, 2016. The benefit amounts are as follows: PUCO regulated gas or electric customers may receive a benefit of up to $175, non-regulated electric or gas

(i.e. co-ops) may receive a benefit amount up to $550. Income eligible bulk fuel customers may receive up to $450 for wood or coal, up to $750 is available for bulk fuel propane/bottled

gas and fuel oil consumers.To learn more or to sched-ule an appointment, phone the Kno-Ho-Co-Ashland Community Action Com-mission’s HEAP office at 674-6479.

On Nov. 9, the West Holmes FFA chap-ter held its meeting and Greenhand Initia-tion. The meeting was brought to order by President Jason Jenkins and opening ceremo-nies were conducted. Special features of the meeting were presented and included a Green-hand slide show as well as Aaron Clark as the speaker. Clark talked about how important FFA is in his life and how he learned how to be prepared. He explained how oppor-tunities are available to help prepare you for life.

After special features, the business section of the meeting included the first main motion of con-ducting the Greenhand ceremony. Members who received the Greenhand Degree were: Alexis Anderson, Caden Austin, Preston Baker, Brevon Barnes, Kyle Beavers,

Teachable moments

Holmes County has a new preschool, offering children a stimulating learning environment, staffed by experienced day care providers. The mission statement is: To make each moment that we have with the children that we serve a teachable moment.

Little Knights Child Care Center has been open for two weeks and the facility located in the Washington Abbey, 164 N. Washington St., has been in the works

for a long time, and Joan Thomas, proprietor of the center hopes to have it up to Step Up to Quality 4 or 5-star ratings as soon as it becomes eligible.

The building has a little history. Rob Hovis pur-chased it from Grace Point and renovated it. It also houses the Holmes County Center for the Arts.

“The process has been a little bit long,” Thomas said. “The building need-ed a lot of work. He put up new plaster, electrical, and other stuff that took a little bit of time. Here we are. We were hoping

to be open a little bit sooner, but, it’s the Lord’s timing, so here we are. It’s a year later, basically, and we’re open. The building has a keyless entry now, so we’re able to keep the

front door locked. Safety is a No. 1 concern when it comes to children. We had to make sure people weren’t just coming in. It’s a very nice security feature.”

The Little Knights Child Care Center has three rooms and a kitchen, plus its own handicapped accessible bathroom.

Thomas had previously operated Little Tots from 2002 to 2010, but the Early Learning Initiative Grant was not renewed by the State of Ohio. Also, back then, if you accepted publicly funded children, you were paid about 45

days after services were rendered. “It was very difficult from a business aspect. We just couldn’t stay afloat,” she said.

“There have been a lot of changes in child care since we had been doing this the last time,” Thom-as added. “Job and Family Services now has a system where the children who qualify come in and we get paid within a couple weeks.

“I was managing anoth-er center, and we were able to lead it to a Step Up to Quality, 5-Star rat-ing, the highest ranking you can get for a child

care center,” she added. “I have been doing this for about 22 years. Since I had Little Tots, I was able to get my early childhood education degree and my social services from Ashland University. I was able to learn a little bit more about the day care field, and have more employees, more manage-ment skills through some business classes, and here we are.”

Little Knights Child Care is licensed for 44 children, ages 6 weeks to 8 years old.

“We currently have 15 children. We are currently accepting applications,” Thomas said. “We have gotten positive feedback from our current families. Unfortunately, because the process to open took a little longer than we anticipated, we lost a few families. The ones who enrolled early have stuck with us.

“Our staff brings over 30 years of experience working with children,” she added. “Our infant room girl graduated from Ashland University with an early childhood degree, and the preschool teacher also graduated from Ash-land with an early child-hood degree.

“We have an open line of communication that is important for parents,” Thomas continued. “We want to make sure we are talking with them about what their child did every day. We also publish the Daily Gazette, which is a daily report we can send to parents about what their child has done dur-ing the day.”

“We have a vision for early childhood education and have a clear under-

standing of developmen-tally appropriate practices for children,” Thomas said. “We are passionate and dedicated to provid-ing a play base environ-ment for children that will help them develop a life-long love of learning.”

Thomas says daily inter-

actions with the children reflect their philosophy and prove their dedication to children and families.

“We encourage children to be creative and inde-pendent thinkers, which promotes lifelong learn-ers and assists children as they discover their place

in the world,” she said.The Little Knights Child

Compassionate Friends candlelighting SundayThe Compassionate

Friends of Holmes County, a local chapter of the inter-national grief support group The Compassionate Friends, will take part in the annual Worldwide Candle Lighting Ceremony and serve as host to families who wish to gath-er in quiet remembrance of children, grandchildren, and siblings who have died but will never be forgotten.

The Compassionate Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting, which unites fam-ily and friends around the globe in lighting candles for one hour to honor

the memories of the sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, and grandchildren who left too soon, is scheduled Sun-day, Dec. 13. The service will be from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Millersburg Church of God located at 10643 State Route 39, about five miles west of Millersburg. Can-dles will be lit promptly at 7 p.m. local time. The program will feature prayer, music, poems, candlelighting, reading of names and light refreshments. All bereaved parents, grandparents and siblings are encouraged to take a photograph or small

memento for the Remem-brance Table.

Now believed to be the largest mass candlelight-ing on the globe, the 19th annual Worldwide Candle Lighting will create a vir-tual 24-hour wave of light as candles burn down in one time zone and are lit in the next as it moves across the globe. Started in the United States in 1997 as a small Internet obser-vance, the event has since swelled in numbers as word has spread throughout the world of the remembrance. TCF’s website, www.com-

passionatefriends.org, will host extended chat room hours and a message board for families to post tributes. Last year there were over 4,000 posted messages from all corners of the world.

All parents, grandparents, and siblings in Holmes, Wayne, Ashland, Coshoc-ton and Tuscarawas coun-ties who have lost a loved one are invited to attend, whether or not they are a member of the local chap-ter. For information, Evelyn Wooten at 330-600-8902 or Becky Hoxworth at 330-275-8527.


Judge: ‘Some people can’t drink, son’

MILLERSBURG — A local man was sentenced to two years in prison after pleading guilty to criminal charges stemming from two alcohol-fueled incidents.

Ricky R. Graham, 33, of 7178 Township Road 319, Apt. B, Millersburg, pre-

viously pleaded guilty in Holmes County Common Pleas Court to driving under suspension and a fel-ony count of driving while under the influence.

The drunken driving charge is made a fourth degree felony because Gra-ham has five times in the last 20 years — in March 2003, March 2005, June 2007, November 2010 and June 2014 — been con-victed of driving under the influence.

He also pleaded guilty to an amended charge of tres-passing into a habitation and two counts of assault stemming from an April incident at a Killbuck resi-dence.

Both plea deals included joint sentencing recom-mendations that would

result in imposition of a two-year prison term. The recommendation was accepted by Judge Robert Rinfret on Tuesday, who told Graham, “Alcohol’s always been your problem. Some people can’t drink, son.”

Rinfret also made note of the increased likelihood of causing serious injury or death while driving drunk and imposed a lifetime driver’s license suspension. “The fact you haven’t hurt yourself or someone else seriously ... you’re lucky,” he said.

Graham also was fined $1,600 and ordered to pay court costs and the fees and expenses of his court-appointed attorney.

Rinfret said he would consider, dependent on

Graham’s behavior and participation in program-ming within the institution, early release into a treat-ment program at the Stark Regional Community Cor-rection Center.

“There has to be punish-ment. You can’t drive a car drunk. You can’t show up at peoples’ houses drunk and get into fights,” Rinfret said.

The traffic charges stem from a June 28 incident when Millersburg Police received a tip Graham, known to the department by name, was driving drunk, according to Chief S. Thomas Vaughn.

As they attempted to locate Graham, one officer spotted him driving, how-ever, he had pulled over and was parked in a pub-

lic driveway along South Washington Street, said Vaughn.

Officers reported Gra-ham was sitting in the driver’s seat, with a cold beer in his hand and sev-eral other empty cans scat-tered around the car, said Vaughn, adding Graham, who failed a field sobri-ety test, was arrested and transported to the Holmes County Jail.

By order of a search warrant, Graham’s blood was drawn and analysis revealed a blood-alcohol content of 0.247, more than three times the prohibited limit, according to Holmes County Prosecutor Steve Knowling.

The trespassing and assault charges stem from an April 24 incident at a

residence along Killbuck’s North Water Street.

Graham reportedly showed up at the residence, intoxicated, with the inten-tion of confronting another individual who was there, according to Chief Dep-uty Richard Haun of the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office.

During the incident, Gra-ham choked one woman and pushed another, both of whom struggled with him in an attempt to intervene and get him to leave, said Haun, noting while at the home, he also attempted to force entry to the home by kicking at the door.


Prison, lifetime licence loss after sixth DUI

Millersburg man sentenced to jail for assault of girlfriend

MILLERSBURG — A Millersburg man was sen-tenced to six months in jail for assaulting his preg-nant girlfriend in August.

Jacob D. Miller, 20, of 8194 Township Road 79, previously pleaded guilty in Holmes County Com-mon Pleas Court to a felony count of domes-tic violence. In exchange for his guilty plea, the state agreed to remove language in the indict-ment suggesting Miller was aware the victim was pregnant. The change did not affect the seriousness of the charge.

Representing Miller,

Mark Baserman Jr. said Miller has been partici-pating in counseling and is genuinely remorseful, at low risk to re-offend and employed.

“I’ve done the best I can to remain employed and better myself,” said Miller, who is no longer in a rela-tionship with the victim. He said he pays support for a child they have in common and also accepts financial responsibility for a second child, due to be born in February.

Baserman asked for lenience for Miller given his voluntary participa-tion in several programs.

But, according to Hol-mes County Assistant Prosecutor F. Christopher

Oehl, it’s an opportunity he’s been afforded before.

The domestic violence charge is made a felony because of a January con-viction for child endan-gering, which Miller said was brought after he slapped his 6-month-old son.

As a consequence of that conviction, Miller served two days of a 180-day jail term and completed a life skills program. He was on probation for that offense when, on Aug. 26, he assaulted his 19-year-old girlfriend.

“No matter how much he works at it, says he’s getting it, apparently he’s not,” said Oehl, who asked the court to impose

a sentence to “reflect the history he has had with children and in consider-ation of the fact there was less than a year elapsed (since his prior offense).”

Judge Robert Rinfret, finding Miller caused serious physical harm, but exhibited genuine remorse and a low poten-tial for recidivism, agreed with the need to punish Miller.

“I’m strongly inclined to believe you should go to prison,” he said, not-ing, however, Miller is employed and pays child support.

That said, Rinfret sen-tenced Miller to six months in the Holmes County Jail, with work

release, also placing him on three years proba-tion. The term will be served consecutive to any imposed for the proba-tion violation in munici-pal court.

Rinfret advised Miller to continue with counsel-ing and noted he would consider early release. However, he said, any vio-lation of the terms of his probation would trigger imposition of a 14-month prison term.

“The only reason you’re not going to prison is you have two kids you’re paying support for,” said Rinfret. “You’ve got to change. There’s got to be punishment. You just can’t do this stuff. This

stuff has to end.”On the date in ques-

tion, Millersburg Police were called to the Close Street residence they shared at the time, where a verbal argument about who he was hanging out with turned physical, said Chief S. Thomas Vaughn.

At the time, the woman said Miller pushed her several times, causing her to fall down, and also hit her across the face. She reported that, at the time, she was 14 weeks preg-nant.

MILLERSBURG — The next time fans may get a chance to see both the Hiland and West Holmes girls basket-ball teams in the same building could be at The Ohio State University’s Schottenstein Center at the state finals in March, where tickets will be plentiful

The Knights and Hawks renewed their cross-county rivalry for the 31st time Saturday night in front of a near-capacity crowd in The

Dungeon at West Hol-mes High School. And while this year’s edition was one of the lowest-scoring in the series, the game was still a classic, grind-it-out affair.

West Holmes’ Hannah Clark scored a game-high 14 points — 12 coming in the second half — and Kacie Leppla added 10 off the bench as the Knights outlasted the Hawks 39-31.

The Battle of Holmes County is annually one of the greatest rivalries Ohio high school sports has to offer, complete with a carnival-like

atmosphere that’s as intense as it is entertain-ing. The archrivals have combined to make 22 Final Four appearances and win a combined eight state champion-ships.

So it shouldn’t have come as much of a sur-prise, then, that Satur-day’s outcome wasn’t decided until the closing minutes.

“It’s always a grind, always a fight in this game from start to fin-ish and tonight’s was no different,” West Hol-mes coach Lisa Patter-son said, whose team improved to 4-1 on the season.“This game is for the pride of the county, a game in which every-one gets super-excited for and a game both teams want to win very badly.”

Although Hiland (3-2) stayed within striking the entire night, the Hawks led just once in the game, and that came on its second possession.

Kennedy Schlabach’s 3-pointer gave the Hawks a 3-0 advan-tage, but it was short-lived as West Holmes took a 7-3 lead on a pair of Leppla 3-point-ers. The Knights led after one period 9-4.

West Holmes extend-ed its lead to 15-8 mid-way through the sec-ond stanza on a Leppla 2-point bucket with 3:20 left in the opening half.

Hiland, though, bat-tled back as Kennedy

Schlabach drilled a 3-pointer with 1:40 left to trim the deficit to 15-11, then pulled with-in a bucket on a steal and layin by Brittany Miller to trail 15-13 at the break. The Hawks forced the Knights into 13 first-half turnovers, 10 coming in the second quarter.

“We didn’t make very many shots, but we were still very much in the game at the half because our defense was able to create some turnovers,” Hiland coach Dave Schlabach said. “We held (Clark) to just two points in the half, but we struggled to score points ourselves. Coming in, I thought if we could get to 45 points, that might get us a win, but obvi-ously that didn’t hap-pen.”

Hiland, however, tied the game at 15-15 with 6:14 left in the third on a Miller bucket, then again at 17 on a Tiffany Weaver layup a posses-sion later.

After the Hiland flur-ry, though, Clark led the Knights on a 12-3 run to close the period, as the Northern Kentcuky-signee scored 10 points to give the Knights a 29-20 lead heading to the final period.

“We knew (Hiland’s) pressure was going to be a problem, but we were able to get Hannah from having to handle the ball out top on every possession, to getting

her in positions to score and that was a big dif-ference,” Patterson said.

West Holmes built its biggest lead of the night early in the fourth, as Samantha Hall’s basket gave the Knights a 30-20 advantage.

Hiland again rallied, though, trimming the Knights’ advantage to 35-31 with 1:40 remain-ing on a Miller layup, but the Hawks were unable to get over the hump in the closing minute.

“We had numerous opportunities through-out the game, and espe-cially in the final run we made, but we couldn’t convert when we had to,” Schlabach said. “We are still not a tough enough team, we are very soft with the ball, and that’s going to have to improve if we are going to be the type of team we want to be.

“I thought Brittany played a great game, she was relentless all night, but we need someone else to be able to score besides her and Ken-nedy in a game like this and we don’t have that yet. We got zero points from our bench, too. It’s disappointing to lose tonight, but bottom-line is we have to be a tough-er team.”

West Holmes finished the night 12 of 32 from the floor and 2 for 12 from beyond the arc, while converting just 13 of 27 free throws. Bri t tany Macaulay led the Knights with seven rebounds. Miller led the Hawks with 13 points while Schlabach chipped in with 10. Only four Hawks scored on the night.

Hiland capped its night 10 of 46 shooting, while making 3 of 18 3-point attempts.


Knights top Hawks in ‘Battle of Holmes County’

Division of Wildlife pleased with DSA compliance

SHREVE — The 2015 deer-gun season closed Sunday night, and local-ly, that meant the end of seven days of accumu-lating samples from deer harvested in 11 area townships in Wayne and Holmes Counties.

The Ohio Division of Wildlife enacted a Chronic Wasting Dis-

ease Surveillance Area for the deer-gun season, and successful hunters were required to take their deer to one of two collection sites so DOW personnel could take samples of lymph nodes from the deer, which would be sent out to be tested for CWD.

Other states have set up similar programs when Chronic Wast-ing Disease was found,

and the participation by the public was skimpy at best. But, that didn’t seem to be the case locally.

“We were pleasantly surprised with how many hunters complied with the new CWD statutes,” said Dennis Solon, the DOW’s manager of the Killbuck Marsh Wild-life Area. “The compli-ance was far beyond our expectations.

“There’s good, con-cerned hunters in Wayne and Holmes counties,” Solon continued. “They did their part.”

Solon said his staff got a good start on the col-lection of CWD sam-ples during the archery season, literally calling successful hunters and going to their houses to collect samples.

“And, there’s more samples to be had,” he

said, noting the DOW will also collect samples during the upcoming bonus weekend on Dec. 28 and 29 and during the Jan. 9-12 muzzleloader season. “The more sam-ples we have, the better we’ll know if CWD has spread to the wild deer population. We don’t want to make the judge-ment on just a few sam-ples.”

Solon said the majority

of hunters were in favor of the extra step of hav-ing to visit a DSA collec-tion station.

“Most of them want-ed to do their part and wanted to help with the situation,” he said. “Hunters don’t want CWD in their backyard.”

HURON — As an out-door writer, I often get asked the same question: “when is the best time to hunt, or when is the best time to fish?”

Certainly, there are times that are better than others, times that are more pro-ductive to bag a buck or catch a catfish, but when it comes right down to it, the best time to hunt or fish is the time when you can, when your schedule allows it.

That was certainly the case on Tuesday, Dec. 1, when, while a lot of Ohio’s sportsmen were out deer hunting, the factors worked out just right for me to get a late-season walleye trip in to Lake Erie.

And not just any wall-eye trip, but a December, night-time, near-shore trip for huge eyes out of Huron. I found a willing wing man in Stu Perry, a break in the weather, fairly calm seas, and a window of oppor-tunity that fit both of our schedules.

When the weather starts turning cold, Lake Erie walleye start staging in the western basin, winter-ing in the shallower waters in preparation for the spring spawn and trips up

the Huron, Sandusky and Maumee Rivers. When the lake does freeze over, ice fishing for walleye around the islands produces some of the biggest fish of the year.

And right now is no dif-ferent. For those anglers willing to get out in the bit-ing November and Decem-ber winds, the fishing can be phenomenal, especially at night.

But, it’s not for everyone. Fishing in cold conditions in the dark most certainly has its drawbacks, but the risk-reward ratio can help make up for the negatives involved.

This time of year, mon-ster walleye hit the western basin shorelines in search of food, where balls of bait-fish school up within 100 feet of land. You can cast from shore with stickbaits, jerkbaits and shad imita-tions, or fish from a boat, hitting the hot spots just out reach of the shore anglers.

That’s what Perry and I did Tuesday, leaving Doylestown at 4 p.m. in a steady drizzle, and driving through periods of heavy rain. But, the fishing gods were with us as we pulled up to the Huron launch ramp an hour-and-a-half later to clear skies and 48-degree temperatures.

We headed out to the

mouth of the river in search of bait balls. The plan was to work our lures slow, and high in the water column.

Being the first time fish-ing this way and at this time of year for both Perry and I, there was certainly a learning curve. It was hard to follow the plan, to fish slow and near the surface. The fish finder showed marks midway down and to the bottom in the 20-feet of water we were fishing, so we changed lures and presentations in hopes of a bite.

Finally, I was the first to land a fish, not soon after my first bite of the night. I had just said to Perry that I was pretty sure I had had a hit, and a couple of casts later, my line went heavy as a walleye hit my shad-shaped black and white bait.

Fishing not 50 feet off the breakwall at the lighthouse on the end of the pier, I yelled ‘fish on.”

The first fish of the night was worth the trip, a 7.2-pound, 29-inch walleye that immediately went into the livewell. It wasn’t long after that I had another walleye miss my lure as I was taking it out of the water, with the fish breaking the surface and splashing right at the boat. Of course, in the dark it’s hard to see what you’re

doing and impossible to see such a close follow.

Perry missed a fish in the same area as it came unbut-toned, but later hooked up with a 6.6-pound fat female on a Reef Runner to cap off our night and make our trip a true success.

As the night wore on, the wind shifted and the tem-perature dropped, and with Perry having to work in the

morning and a long drive home awaiting us, we called it a night at 10:30.

We didn’t get our limit, not even close. We didn’t land any 10-pounders, but we went home with two big fish in the cooler and valuable knowledge that can only be learned by get-ting out there and fishing in those conditions, at that time of year, and at that

time of night.Not your typical Lake

Erie walleye trip, not your typical Lake Erie walleye tactics, but two friends fish-ing when all the stars lined up. Like I said, the best time to go fishing is when you can, even if it is Dec. 1 and on Lake Erie.

The walleye are there, and you won’t catch them sit-ting at home on the couch.

Former Hiland stars and current Pioneers Jordan Yoder and Clyde Yoder were on hand at the Perry Reese Jr. Community Center recently as Mullet signed his official letter of intent to play for Malone. Hiland alums Richie Mast and Todd Ropp also play for the Pioneers.

“It’s exciting. It’s very nice to have signed already. That way I can focus on my senior year here at Hiland,” Mullet said.

Mullet says his love for the game started at an early age, and he credits his father Brian for push-ing him to become the player he is.

“My dad introduced me to the sport and played

with me in the back yard,” Mullet said. “Ever since then, all the way from Lit-tle League to high school, I’ve always loved playing the game. It’s like nothing else.”

Mullet is thankful for his God-given talent, but also is appreciative of the coaches he’s worked with over the years.

“Coaches teaching me form and tweaking little things here and there,” he said. “That helps a ton. Putting in the time in the off-season helped. Our team goes to Nick Venu-to in the off season. That helped tremendously. He does a great job with us.”

Venuto, a former pitcher at Kent State, is a scout for the Houston Astros, who has mentored many Hiland players since 2008.

Mullet usually was the man to toe the rubber for Hiland when the Hawks needed a win, and as a junior he came through regularly, posting a 7-0 record with a 0.00 earned

run average for the sea-son. That’s right, not one earned run allowed all year.

“I never get tired of events like these, cele-brating the success of our guys who get the oppor-tunity to play at the next level,”Hiland baseball coach Tom Gibson said. “I’m real happy about Eric and what he’s accom-plished.”

Aside from the amazing numbers Mullet posted on the diamond last sea-son for the Hawks, he also scored well in the class-room, posting a 3.8 GPA and scoring a 27 on the ACT.

“He is a true student athlete,” Gibson added. “He is the full package. He put the time in and it really paid off.”

Mullet thanked his team-mates for their support.

“I couldn’t ask for bet-ter teammates,” he said. “I’d also like to thank the coaches, especially Tom Gibson. You guys

have pushed me since I was eight years old, and I wouldn’t be where I am

today without you. I also want to thank my parents. My dad pushed me to be

the best player I could be, and my mom always sup-ported me.”

He graduated from Seville High School in 1956, obtained a B.S. degree in mathematics from Ash-land College in 1960, and a M.S. in bioradiology and in nuclear engineering from the University of California-Berkeley.

Bruce had 50 years’ expe-rience in health physics and environmental engineering with 30 years’ experience in nuclear industry projects. He served as a full-time consultant from 1980-97 for government and nuclear industry organizations. Dur-ing this period, he played a key role in establishing and managing support orga-nizations for several large nuclear outage and decom-missioning projects.

Bruce was employed in Federal Agencies (U.S. Pub-lic Health Service and the U.S. EPA) in environmental radiological monitoring and evaluation of weapons tests at the Nevada Test Site and vicinity and environmental studies at uranium mines, mill sites and waste disposal sites.

In 1979, Bruce was hired as a staff assistant with the investigation and prepara-tion of the Presidents Com-mission’s report on the acci-dent at Three Mile Island. That experience led to employment as a consultant to the U.S. Senate Commit-tee in Environmental and Public Works investigation of the U.S. Nuclear Industry response to the Three Mile Island accident. He went on to a staff consultant position to the National Academy of Sciences.

He was a certified health physicist and registered pro-fessional engineer in nucle-ar engineering. He worked at nuclear research facilities for three years as a health physicist and held reactor operators’ licenses at two research reactors. After 1989, he became a private consultant on a full-time basis to the Nuclear Power

I n d u s -try and w o r k e d exclusively on nucle-ar facil-ity clean-up and d e c o m -m i s s i o n -ing projects. Bruce joined Commonwealth Edison in November 1997 as a pro-gram manager in their cor-porate decommissioning services organization. He was working at Zion Power Plant when he retired in May 2014.

Over the years Bruce participated in a number of studies of nuclear tech-nology and authored or co-authored over 40 technical publications and presented papers at numerous sym-posia and technical meet-ings. He has also performed audits and operational reviews at a number of nuclear facilities.

He was a member of the Health Physics Society and the American Nuclear Society.

Bruce and Janet shared a passion for travel and enjoyed mountain biking. They also enjoyed working on many volunteer projects together, such as the Habi-tat for Humanity building project with Jimmy Carter.

Bruce and Janet had been married 26 years. They were fortunate to be able to cel-ebrate their 25th wedding anniversary last year on a two-week cruise to the Caribbean.

Bruce had many interests. He was a voracious reader, enjoyed working around the house, and was a talented craftsman.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Lawrence and Charlotte Mann; a sis-ter, Marcia Davis; and neph-ews, Gregory Davis and Kenneth Mann.

Calling hours will be Mon-day, Dec. 14 from 1-2:15 p.m. at Seville Presbyterian Church, with a celebration of life service to follow at 2:30 p.m. Armstrong Funer-al Home, 25 Pleasant St., Seville, is assisting the fam-ily.
