HURON, Ohio. January 19, 2011 - There’s a long list of challenges facing any community wishing to have a recreational boat launch ramp. Funds are hard to find and waterfront land expensive. Obtaining permits can be difficult. “NIMBY” forces can present roadblocks and in this post 9-11 era, even port security operations can sometimes influence a location. But keeping flexible and having options can overcome many of these hurdles. That’s what the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) did when working with the City of Huron to over- come security concerns as well as commu- nity opposition to successfully open a new four-lane boat ramp launch facility. It has handicapped-accessible docks, restrooms and parking for 135 vehicles / trailers on the city’s harbor front. For its work in completing the project OHDNR is hon- ored with a 2010 BoatUS Recreational Boating Access Award. BoatUS (Boat Owners Association of The United States) created the award pro- gram in 2007 to highlight successes in pro- tecting water access as boaters and com- munities were losing marina slips, service yards and boat launching areas. The goal is to draw national attention to innovative solutions and share success stories so that others may help to solve their own water- way access challenges. “The first site planners chose, at the end of a nearby shipping channel, was the most cost- effective, but port security operations could have closed the ramps without notice,” said BoatUS Vice Presi- dent of Government Affairs Margaret Podlich. “When the proposed location was then moved west to the Huron River, where it was eventually located, initially there was opposition about potential bottlenecks in the narrow river channel.” A harbor of refuge, river traffic there can increase significantly when boaters run for the protection of the port during Lake Erie storms. The state and city listened and made critical design changes to accommodate these concerns. The biggest change was the ramp built “into” the property inside the old river shoreline boundary and sited on an angle - rather than 90-degrees to the river - in order to keep boating traf- fic flowing. This also helped the sometime onerous permitting process, as construc- tion on the actual river was reduced. A long courtesy dock was installed parallel to shore to facilitate loading and unload- ing, bathroom breaks and for tying-up boats seeking temporary refuge. Built entirely with funds paid by the state’s boaters as well as federal angler funds and now maintained by the city, the Huron Boat Launch Ramp facility has become a showcase boating access loca- tion. Open free of charge 24 hours a day, it’s located close to Huron’s restaurants, grocery, tackle stores and other amenities, and fishing tournaments are now held at the site, bringing additional economic benefits to the city.

Athletes Sign with Ashland (Seated L to R) Joey Bogden and Sean Fantozz share their signing with their senior teammates. Joey Bogden and Sean Fantozz were the two latest young Huronites to sign letters of intent to continue their athletic careers in college. While the two insist the decision was made separately, they have decided to play football at Ashland University in the Fall. Fantozz, an SBC all-conference athlete, hopes to play wide receiver and help out on special teams for the Eagles. He liked the feel of the campus and the fact that the team played on the DII level compared with some of the other schools he was considering. Sean plans to major in Computer Science. Bogden, an SBC and District first teamer at tackle, chose Ashland because he liked the fa- cilities, plus his coach and uncle played there. Also, he noted that the fact that the university was rated as having some of the best food on any campus in the nation. That would be an impor- tant factor for any young offensive lineman. Joe remains undecided, for now, on his major. Their varsity football coach Tony Legando commented how proud he was of the young men and felt that both are ready to play football on the next level as well as academically handle the course work. “Ashland is getting a couple good leaders,” closed Coach Legando.

H EART W ALKBY CHIEF MAJOYIn the wake of recent snowfalls, it is

important for residents to be remind-ed of two important city ordinances concerning snow removal. First, it is the duty of the owner or occupant of abutting lands to keep their sidewalks free from snow, ice or any nuisance. (HCO 521.06) This means that own-ers or occupants are required to shov-el their sidewalks that are along city streets. A recent com-plaint was brought to our attention regarding this matter and we are encouraging residents to clean their sidewalks.

We fully understand that it is often diffi cult right after snowfalls to have the sidewalks cleaned, particularly after a signifi cant snowfall like we just had. However, we suggest that once the snowfall has subsided residences should clear the sidewalks of snow.

Next, it is a violation of city ordinance to sweep, shovel or pile snow onto city streets (HCO 521.10). Using your snow blower, plow, shovel or other means to put snow onto a city street is illegal and can create a hazard for mo-torists and can lead to other problems or accidents.

Residents with questions or concerns are urged to con-tact the police department at (419) 433-4114 or via e-mail at [email protected].

Susan Stouffer GallagherMarch 31, 1959 - Feb. 6, 2011Susan Stouffer Gallagher, a well known

and long time resident of Huron Township, Ohio and Catawba Island Township, passed away peacefully with her family at her side at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital on Sunday February 6, 2011 after a courageous and gallant battle with multiple myeloma. Su-san was born in New York City in 1959, the daughter of James and Mary Stouffer and the granddaughter of Stouffer Food Cor-poration founders Vernon and Gertrude Stouffer. She spent the majority of her youth in Cleveland, Ohio before moving to Catawba Island in 1972, graduating from Port Clinton High School in 1977.

A 1981 graduate of Mount Union Col-lege, Alliance, Ohio with a Bachelors of Art degree in Education and was an active member of Alpha Delta Pi Sorority. Susan taught for two years at the Atwater School, Waterloo local school district, Portage County, Ohio. Upon moving to Catawba Island in 1984 Susan became involved with her family’s business and utilized her skills in accounting and administration to help develop and nurture the Catawba Island Club and Marina established by her father over four decades ago. In particular, Susan’s careful attention to detail and her never ending commitment to peoples’ enjoyment was a keystone of her success. She was truly proud of her fellow Catawba Island Club teammates’ hard work and dedication to service, and for all their accomplishments.

Susan’s kind smile and gracious ways were a wonderful example for all to emulate.

Susan and her loving husband Timothy S. Gallagher were married on February 17, 2001. Most memorable was the spectacular aroma of a springtime desert bloom along with the warmth and spirit of friends and family. Together they enjoyed boating, drives through the countryside, trips to Maine and in particular, beautiful Arizona desert sunsets. They shared a passion for cooking, gardening and all God’s creatures big and small. Susan was a loving and de-voted aunt to Mary, Marshall and Kathryn Drew, and James, David, Matthew, Nicho-las and Lillian Stouffer. As a former edu-cator she inspired learning, discipline and creativity. Likewise her spirit of giving was evident with her longtime loyal support for the local chapter of PEO.

Susan is survived by her husband Tim, brother James (Heather) Stouffer, Jr., sister Sarah (John) Stouffer Drew, father-in-law Pat (Judy) Gallagher, mother-in-law Jack-ie (Phil) Gutowski, brothers-in-law Sean (Joanna) Gallagher and Denny (Sandy) Gallagher and nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents and grandparents.

At her request there will be no visitation or funeral services. Burial will be in the Catawba Island Township Cemetery. The family wishes to acknowledge the special compassionate care Susan received from the nurses, doctors and staff at the Fire-lands Community Hospital and the Cleve-land Clinic Taussig Cancer Center. For those wishing to express special thoughts or condolences to the family, they would be honored to receive them in care of the Catawba Island Club or online with the Gerner-Wolf-Walker Funeral Home & Cre-matory at www.walkerfuneralhomes.com. In lieu of fl owers, the family has asked that memorial contributions in memory of Susan be given to Cancer Services of Erie County, 505 West Perkins Ave., Sandusky, OH. 44870.

Guests at the Sandusky Bay Area Chef ’s Association Schol-arship Dinner selected their dinner from an array of incred-ible cuisine prepared by EHOVE Culinary Arts high school and adult education students. The yearly meal is a fundraiser for various projects promoting culinary educa-tion for local students. The associa-tion has now given away over $37,000 in scholarships. The dinner is made possible through the generous sup-port of a long list of corporate and individual contributors to whom the faculty and students are very grateful.

According to EHOVE Culinary Arts Instructor Chef Michael Edwards, the funds raised “support all educational forums in our chapter, such as schol-arships, cooks camp registration and supporting chefs to attend regional ACF conferences. The association is about education and the betterment of our profession.”

2011 high school scholarship winners:• Sean Aldrich (Vermilion H.S.)-Straight A’s, National Hon-

or Society and National Technical Honor Society member, Awarded a $1000 scholarship

• Adrienne Green (Vermilion H.S.)-Plans to attend Brad-ford College, Hopes to have a future career cooking for the Cleveland Indians, Awarded a $500 scholarship

2011 adult education scholarship winners:• Leslie Campbell of Norwalk-Awarded a $500 scholarship• Loni Malson of Huron-Awarded a $500 scholarship• Levon Edgeston of Cleveland-Awarded a $250 scholarship• Darnell Nelson of Norwalk–Awarded a $250 scholarship

This year’s dinner generated over $5000 for next year’s scholarships. The funds raised were from tickets purchased by the community to attend the dinner, a silent auction for

items donated to the event, and open bidding for an-home dinner for 10 prepared by Chef Michael Edwards. To entice higher bids, and therefore raise more funds for student schol-arships, four other EHOVE Instructor Chefs each announced they would prepare a special dish at the multi-course dinner as well. The crowd enjoyed the good-natured bidding war, which topped out at $1050 by EHOVE Assistant Principal Dale VanLerberghe of Catawba Island.

“It is amazing how EHOVE staff, students, parents and alumni, ACF members, Young Chef Inn customers, food purveyors and the community come together to raise funds to assist in the future of the culinary arts profession,” said Edwards.

On February 3, 2010 the First Grade students of Shawnee Elementary School celebrated their 100th day of school. The students had been counting toward and anticipat-ing this very special event since the fi rst day of school. In preparation for this celebration, the students made a 100’s Day project, which included 100 items. The projects were on display in the center of the school for all of the students to enjoy. In addition to the projects the students learned various ways to count to 100, sang songs, read stories and

completed a number of creative tasks related to the num-ber 100.

On the 100th day, the students had their celebration, which included a 100’s Day assembly fi lled with count-ing, singing, and stories while sporting of their 100’s Day attire. They topped the afternoon celebration off with a special piece of 100’s Day Cake. Longtime friend of the First Grade staff, “Zero the Hero”, stopped by for some ‘ad-ditional’ fun.

The normally aggressive Margaretta Polar Bears travelled to Huron and played unusually fl at during the fi rst half of the SBC match-up. The Lady Tigers looked energetic early, hus-

tling all over the fl oor and fi ghting for loose balls. But when the second half opened up, the visitor’s press had regained its bite and one could see the inevitable avalanche building. By the fi nal period, it had swallowed the Tigers whole.

Huron struck early with all three of their most consistent scorers, Devon Koenig, Sierra Ward, and Lauren Volz hitting to build an 8-0 lead after just two and a half minutes of play. While the Bears ran their offense fairly well and took good shots, they simply couldn’t convert. Meanwhile, it was Hu-ron’s press that was creating easy, transition buckets. With 33 seconds left in the fi rst period, senior guard Justine Butler hit two free throws to give the Tigers their largest lead of the game, 17-6.

The second quarter was simply odd. Huron started suf-fering the same dilemma as Margaretta, which was to be ice cold from the fi eld. The only fi eld goal by either team could muster came from Devon Koenig, who rebounded a miss by Volz and laid it in with just eleven seconds left in the half. The Polar Bears hit just three free throws while Huron’s Kelsey Koehler hit one during the entire period. The Tigers went into the locker room up, 20-9.

Margaretta came out of the break a different team. Their press appeared so daunting that the Tigers had trouble just getting the ball over the half court line. Huron could cer-tainly have used another ball handler, but point guard Alexis Lemar looks to be out due to injury for the rest of the season. It only took the Polar Bears half of the third quarter to take the lead. A three pointer by Volz, with 2:03 left briefl y gave the lead back to Huron, but it ended up being the Tigers last gasp. With :44 left in the third period, Ward would hit a shot from the fi eld that proved to be Huron’s fi nal points of the game. Huron trailed 29-28 going into the fi nal stanza.

Margaretta did a nice job of working the ball inside dur-ing the second half. The Polar Bears scored 22 unanswered

points during the last eight minutes to earn a 51-28 win.Devon Koenig led the Tiger attack with 11 points and 11

rebounds while Volz added 8 points and 8 boards.

Already stuck in a youth movement, Huron head coach Bobby James had to go even younger to make up for the loss due to injury of starting guards, sophomore Trae Gra-

ham and junior Kyle Pisano. Coach James said prior to the game that he was forced to bring up JV talent Colin Mc-Cready and Jake Justus. Freshman Cody Thompson would get his second straight varsity start while Justus would see his fi rst.

Fortunately, Huron was facing the Oak Harbor Rockets who are, and would remain, winless in the SBC.

Ironically, the Rockets came to Huron on what was cel-ebrated as Senior night for all of the Tiger winter sports. Following the festivities, Oak Harbor bounced out to a 4-0 lead. Neither team was shooting the ball particularly well. Halfway through the opening quarter an aggressive Aaron Driftmeyer put in Huron’s fi rst shot from the fi eld giving the Tigers a 5-4 lead.

Coach James did a good deal of subbing through out the game, giving playing time to 12 Tigers in all. Of all the reserves, junior Drew Enderle had the biggest night, knocking down nine points. The lead went back and forth until Brian Bollenbacher and Driftmeyer hit free throws that gave Huron the lead for good at 11-9 to close the fi rst quarter.

The Tiger press then took control and allowed the Ti-gers to go on a 10-0 run to open the second period. To make matters worse for the visitors, Oak Harbor hit the

10 foul mark early in the quarter. Thompson and Aaron Casey converted steals into points. When the dust of the fastbreaks had settled, Huron had out scored the Rockets 20-5, and the Tigers were up 31-14 at halftime.

To open the second half, the Tigers clicked it into cruise control. Both teams looked sloppy and with 5:39 left in the third quarter, after only one basket by Driftmeyer for either team, Coach James called time and got his team back on track. While the Rocket offense began to produce, Huron’s play re-emerged thanks, in part, to fi ve points to close out the third period by Enderle.

The Tigers extended their 44-23 lead going into the fi -nal period even further, mostly through free throws. In the

end, Bollenbacher had another solid night with 17 points while center Casey contributed 10 points in the 56-33 vic-tory.

From yourLibrary Director

Dear Residents of Huron,I am honored to have the

opportunity to serve your wonderful community and to do so through an insti-tution so revered by its pa-trons, staff, and community leaders.

As your new Library Di-rector I will build on the successes of this great li-brary team and on the hard work of my predecessor, Anne Hinton, who retired at the end of 2010. Fol-lowing in Anne’s wake is a tall order. That job is made easier by a top notch library staff, a dedicated and skilled library board, and broad community support for the mission and work of the Huron Public Library.

Over the coming months I look forward to experienc-ing and understanding life in this Great Lake Place. In due time, the library team will develop new programs and services that serve com-munity needs arising out of Huron’s unique character, history, interests, values, and demographic mix.

I look forward to seeing you in the Huron commu-nity very soon.

Sincerely,Daniel Slife, Director, Hu-

ron Public Library
