With all of the negative publicity about the local economy, there is at least one suc-cess story. What started as a small local telephone company designed to provide affordable service to local and area busi-nesses, has blossomed into a multi-faceted media company based in Port Clinton.

Computer Resources started in July of 1994 as a computer store located in the Port Clinton Shopping Plaza annex. It was during the early stages of the Internet boom, and owner Mike Christiansen fig-ured they were in the good position to be-come the area’s primary service provider. They got it going with four modems on a shelf and started to compete with such well-known names as AOL and Prodigy.

Within a few years, the company had 1,100 lines and modems and between 8,000 and 10,000 local customers … and it was all on dial-up. Seeing the future, Christiansen turned to broadband, partic-ularly for his many local business custom-ers. Then the question came up … what do we do with all of these phone lines and switches?

The answer was a little “out of the box” but he figured, “why not start a local busi-ness-oriented telephone service provider company?” In 2002, Ohio Telecom was born. The service was sold to existing In-ternet customers who subscribed to cros.net (Computer Resources online services). The first customer for Ohio Telecom to provide local and long distance phone ser-vice was the Jet Express.

The company grew between 2002 and 2007 when Christiansen hired Dennis Russo to do direct sales work and the tele-phone side exploded. Their aim was to be-come the local “phone company you keep” by bundling services to pass along afford-able phone rates to local business. By stay-ing within the 419 area code, they were able to provide local and personal service to their customers and save them between 20 percent and 30 percent on their phone bills.

Today, the customer base for Ohio Tele-com numbers in the thousands. By the fall of 2009, they were providing “voice over Internet protocol” capability saving their customers even more. But, in the whirl-wind world of technology, there were still more opportunities out there.

The newest offering by Christiansen and Russo is just now getting started. They have garnered the local service franchise for Direct TV, a satellite television viewing network. They are now the authorized lo-cal dealer for Ottawa, Erie, Sandusky and Huron counties. Direct TV is the largest

Back to the Future

PHOTOS COURTESY OF THE NRA COMPETITIVE SHOOTING DIVISION

Locals check out jewelry during Port Clinton Women’s Club’s art event last year. Artists and crafters will be set up Sunday in Lakeview Park.

Some 6,000 of the nation’s finest com-petitive rifle and pistol shooters will gather at Camp Perry for nearly five weeks of intense shoulder-to-shoulder competition. The National Rifle and Pistol Championships run July 11-Aug. 18. Considered to be America’s World Series of Shooting Sports, the National Matches have been held at Camp Perry since 1907.

At stake are the National Trophies and NRA’s Championship Trophies. These works of art, many more than a century old, represent some of America’s oldest awards for sporting endeavors. Both col-lections are on display in the NRA Tro-phy Room, Building 1021C on Camp Perry’s Vendor Row during the National Championships.

Also featured during the competition are some chances for shooters at all lev-els to get in on the action. Sign up to learn and shoot in the Civilian Marks-manship Program’s Small Arms Firing Schools for pistol or rifle.

Volunteering is another way to get in-volved in the matches. Volunteers get

a place to stay and a small daily allow-ance to help offset living costs. Each year, hundreds of volunteers come from around the country to staff the NRA Na-tional Championships.

The schedule is: July 12-13 — Pistol SAFS, July 13-17— NRA Pistol Match-es, July 18 — National Trophy Pistol Matches, July 21-24 — SBR 3-Posi-tion Matches, July 25-29 — SBR Prone

Matches, July 31-Aug. 1 — High Power Rifle SAFS, Aug. 2-7 — National Trophy Rifle Matches, Aug. 8 — Whistler Boy High Power Rifle Match, Aug. 8 — NRA/Springfield Match, Aug. 9-13 — NRA National High Power Rifle Matches, Aug. 14-18 — NRA Long Range Matches

Tin Goose an icon in the skiesWell, I didn’t get to ride on her —

but I had the next best thing. A Ford Tri-Motor Airplane was at the Port Clinton Airport giving rides this past weekend. I got to see her twice, as she traversed the skies out over the Dan-bury Peninsula. It was a wonderful sight.

Known affectionately in this area as “The Tin Goose,” the Tri-Motor used to be the best (and sometimes only) means of transportation to the is-lands. She hauled passengers, freight and mail back and forth on a regu-lar basis. I believe that the flight took about 8 minutes. A long time ago I remember there was a sign at the Air Field that billed this as “The shortest scheduled flight in the world.”

Fans of the Tin Goose say she was one of the most reliable planes ever built. She could carry exceptionally heavy loads and could take off and land on very short runways. She is an icon. It was good to see making her slow way through the sky here in the Lake Erie Vacationland. It was like seeing an old friend.

There is a spectacular display of decorative quilts at the Ida Rupp Li-brary in Port Clinton. Most of these are smaller than bed-size and in a home would likely be used as wall or-namentation. These vibrant works of art really have to be seen because it’s impossible to describe them. Stop in to take a look. And be sure you have adequate time to wander around and get a close up view because there are many on exhibit there and you won’t want to miss any of them.

n n n

The Otterbein North Shore Retire-ment Community (near the west gate of Lakeside) still has space on the motorcoach which will tour Malabar Farm in October. Call 419-798-8203 for information. October will be a great time of year for a trip to Mala-bar, home of renowned author Louis Bromfield.

This summer the Lakeside’s Farm-ers Market will feature foods grown within 50 miles of the community. A free 90-minute shopping pass for the Lakeside gates is available. Have

it stamped by a vendor before leav-ing the community through a toll gate. The market will be open 9 a.m. to noon Tuesdays and Fridays on Walnut Street, between Second and Third streets. Enjoy the home-grown produce as well as homemade jams, jellies, baked goods, etc.

Port Clinton is holding a Farmers Market at the north end of Jefferson Street each Saturday morning. Call Toni Garrett, 419-341-1610, to regis-ter if you have produce, baked goods, flowers, etc. to sell.

The Lake Erie Islands Historic So-ciety will host its annual auction July 10. It will be held at the Crescent Pa-vilion in the village of Put-in-Bay. Viewing of items begins at 1 p.m. with the main auction at 4 p.m. Other island events scheduled for this year include the Isle of St. George Tour, in memory of Mary Ann Market, on Aug. 12; Historical Weekend is on Sept. 10-12 and the Wine Festival is on Oct. 2. The Society has another celebration slated for this year. Mem-bers will attend an anniversary party on Aug. 28. It’s the 25th anniversary of the museum and the 35th anniver-sary of the society’s service as a non-profit organization.

Lately I’ve been noticing an abun-dance of a small yellow flower along the road sides. A friend looked it up for me and identified it. The common name for this perennial wildflower is Birds-foot Trefoil or Birdfoot Deer-vetch. Its flower is small, shaped like a pea flower, in bright yellow or or-ange colors, sometime with tinges of red. It is named for the shape of its seed pod, which looks like the foot of a bird because three of its five leaflets are grouped together at the end of the leaf stalk. Interestingly, in Great Britain it is called “eggs and bacon” or “eggs and butter” because of the flower’s vibrant color.

This low-growing plant is a native of North Africa and Eurasia. It can be a valuable forage crop, an inva-sive weed or an ornamental flower or groundcover — depending on the variety and where it is growing. It was imported into this country as a forage

crop. It grows well in full sun or light shade and in almost any soil, sand or clay, wet or dry. Most importantly it grows in soil too poor to produce al-falfa. Its tiny seeds germinate poorly. It can be grazed (without the bloating of animals such as is caused by green alfalfa), baled or used for silage and is especially liked by geese, deer and elk. However, its fresh leaves are poison-ous to humans.

As a groundcover it can be tram-pled or mowed down to 2 inches and it will still bloom from June to September. Seeds may be purchased from multiple sources on the Inter-net. A double-flowered variety is used as an ornamental garden plant but it may invade lawns and smother other flowers if it’s not properly contained. It is an important source of nectar for many insects and it produces food for the caterpillars of at least six different butterfly species.

This plant is very sturdy. It multi-plies by seed, by underground rhi-zomes or by above-ground runners. It grows 6-24 inches high in a thick tangled mat of dense growth that can choke out other plants and therefore become a problem for native plants. Classified as invasive in nine states (but not in Ohio), it has a 3-foot long taproot as well as secondary roots. Controlling its growth is by frequent low mowing or with application of most general herbicides.

Look for it. It’s in bloom now and it’s different from what we have pre-viously seen along most roadsides.

It’s time to renew your membership in (or join) the Friends of the Ida Rupp Library. This group assists the library with financial support for the summer reading program for kids, programs for genealogy research, and an on-site license to show films, etc. Their major activity is a used book sale, scheduled annually and open to the public. This year the sale is open to the public Aug. 6-7. That event presents great books for great prices. Visit it to find a great supply of mate-rials to match your summer reading needs.

Until next week…

To The Editor:I’m sure many of us remember the song “Little Things

Mean a Lot.” And it’s often the “little things” in our daily life that can bring great pleasure and a smile — or cause anguish and sorrow. These are some social “trifles” — things we all experience everyday. We used to call these things “manners” or “common sense.” Maybe I’m becom-ing a cranky old-timer, but try some of my current pet

“trifles” on for size:

Parking lots Notice how carts seldom find their way to the cart cor-

rals and seem to “cluster” in available parking spots? Why not help a few strays find their proper place? Or, what I try to do, wheel one or two with you on your way into the store.

Trash and litter in the lot? Pick something up and toss it into the receptacle by the store’s door. You know, the prop-er place for trash (which other shoppers couldn’t find.)

The handicapped parking hanging placard gives permis-sion for special parking to its owner — not to the car. If you don’t feel comfortable saying something to that ag-ile driver hopping out of the car they just pulled into a handicapped parking spot, could you at least give them the “evil eye?”

Street and sidewalk litterSince when are cigarette butts not “litter?” People toss

them out their car windows; and even empty their ash-trays in the streets and parking lots! Pullllease!

Grass belongs in your lawn. And lawns do NOT belong in street. Last summer, rains caused flash floods, because storm sewers were clogged with grass clippings. Grass in the streets goes into the sewers. It doesn’t take a “rocket scientist” to see that mower discharge chutes can either blow clippings back into the lawn (good fertilizer) or into the streets (litter.) As you drive down your street, which of your neighbors is considerate and intelligent enough to keep their lawn on their property?

Out for a stroll around the neighborhood? There are probably few trash cans along the way, so take a plastic bag with you and pick up litter as you go. Imagine the collective impact from all us who like to walk!

Highway safetyAt dawn, dusk and when it’s raining – how about head-

lights? It makes us more visible to cars and pedestrians alike — and it could save a life or two. In fact, it ought to be law! Oh, that’s right, it IS a law, isn’t it?

Farmers and Boat Haulers: School bus drivers know that it doesn’t take long for traffic to queue up behind them. Most are courteous enough to pull off to the side after a few miles to let the pent-up line of cars get by. All equipment that is moving slower than the posted speed limit on the highway should be as considerate.

My list of social “trifles” could go on, and I’m sure you can add dozens more. These “little things” have mini-mal impact and importance one by one. But collectively, they become part of the fabric of our society and reflect our concern (or lack of it) for our environment and our neighbors. I’m suggesting that the collective force of our personal contributions, however small individually, can greatly impact our community and make all of our lives safer and more pleasurable.

one Last Kiss 2006 CaLifornia White tabLe Wine

This wine is a powerhouse! The intensity of raspberry, plum and briary flavours is immense. The deep dark color and abundant yet soft tannins give the wine great complexity and intrigue. We have aged all our previous vintages in the cellar and are continually astonished at how well they live.

100% Primitivo (the same grape as Zinfandel - but Italian)

In Val d’Adige, at Terra dei Forti, the climate is characterized by intense temperature shifts and by constant winds. These rare climatic conditions and the great experience applied by our men, careful of each single bunch of grapes, from the defoliage to the double harvest, make this the best area for the cultivation of Pino Grigio. It is all still based on personal labor, and on knowing the right fields and the winds, which is knowledge handed down over time.

Pale straw yellow in color. The scent has traces of white, flowers white peach and ripe pear. In the mouth great structure and balance, long and complex ending with a spicy note.

Goes well with delicate appetizers, risotti, fish, soft cheeses and steamed vegetables. Excellent as an aperitif.

100% Pinot Grigio - vineyard age from 15 to 40 years.

Aromas of dried apricot and spice lend into this lush-textured wine-rich and racy with flavors of tangerine, peach and grapefruits.

One of my favorite magazines recently carried a fable about a man and his son who traveled to the marketplace with a donkey.

As they started out, the boy rode the donkey and the man walked alongside. Some passersby shook their heads in dismay.

“The children of today have no respect for their elders,” they said. “Look at that poor man walking while his spoiled son rides.”

The man and his son shifted places. Soon other people passed by and shook their heads in dismay. “Look at that big strong man riding on the donkey while his little boy has to hurry alongside,” they said. “Some parents just don’t care about their children at all. Why do they have them?”

Soon both the father and his son were riding together. Along came another group of people who protested, “How can people mistreat their animals so badly. Imagine, two of them riding the poor donkey.”

As the father and son both walked to the marketplace alongside their donkey, some people laughed. “Look at the stupid people. They are both walking when they have a donkey fully capable of carrying one —perhaps even both — of them.”

According to the fable, both father and son arrived at the marketplace — both

carrying the donkey.We live in a world where people have

deep interest in public opinion polls — in knowing the “in things to think and to do” and the “out things which no ‘in the know person’ would think of doing” to gain acceptance by following the crowd.

The problem is public opinion is usu-ally wrong about as often as it is right. The most consistent thing about public opinion is how frequently it changes. Pub-lic opinion is usually diverse enough that nearly half the people will think we are wrong even when we always go with what the majority thinks.

The problem with basing our beliefs and actions on gaining something called public acceptance is that it is often a fear similar to carrying a donkey to the marketplace. Carried to its extremes, this practice is epitomized by a new move-ment in the United States which has labeled its adherents as Heterodoxuals and which views all doctrines as of equal value and all beliefs or even atheism as equally valid. Their creed states “Reality is my god and integrity is my religion.” By believing in everything, they end up believing in nothing.

Find that which is of ultimate truth and rooted in the Creator. Build your life on that truth and the world will have great difficulty placing unnecessary burdens on your back.

In September, Emily Wadsworth joined Stein Hospice as a nurse at the inpatient care center. Friends worried that working at a hospice center might be difficult for Emily, whose cancer was in remission.

“Because I have cancer, I should be there,” the 61-year-old Clyde nurse told them.

Emily’s career at Stein was brief, but her impact was vast. She served patients and families with compassion and dedication, never satisfied until all their questions were answered.

When Emily’s cancer returned and she was no longer able to work, she shifted her attention to other Stein projects.

This spring she laid the groundwork for Emily’s Library. A room at the care center will soon hold books, recordings and computers to help educate and comfort patients and families.

“I think one of the best gifts you can give a family is the understanding of what is happening,” she explained.

Emily joined a Stein committee that was planning a caregiver conference so she could share her experiences from both sides of the bed. And in an effort to further reach out to others, she asked to be part of Stein’s advertising campaign.

Emily wasn’t able to complete all her projects. She died April 8 at the care center, receiving the kind of care she once delivered.

Stein Hospice helped Emily deal with her death on her terms.

EHOVE Career Center’s School of Prac-tical Nursing proudly presented gradu-ates from its 19th full-time class, 11th part-time evening class and seventh part-time day class during a commencement ceremony on June 22 at Norwalk High School in the Ernsthausen Performing Arts Center.

Completing these requirements entitles each of them to take examinations administered by the Ohio Board of Nurs-ing to become a Licensed Practical Nurse.

Stein Hospice President and CEO Jan W. Bucholz was the featured speaker at the graduating ceremony. Class speakers, Rob-ert Smith, Karissa Workman and Shelly Moore, also addressed their classmates.

Local and visiting musi-cians and homemade des-serts are again featured in the 12th season of Music in the Firelands at the Wolcott Keeper’s House, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, July 10. Tracie Henson and her “Strings of Glory” perform from noon to 2 p.m. with traditional dulcimer mu-sic. The North Coast Con-cert Band makes an enthu-siastic return after a year’s absence. A severe storm forced the 65-piece en-semble to cancel last year. Director Nick Woycitsky, of Elmore, assisted by Will Kish, of Norwalk, will lead the band in a variety of rousing marches, dazzling solo pieces and traditional concert band pieces.

Henson, from Oak Har-bor, has been playing the dulcimer for nearly 20 years, and performs at fes-tivals, weddings and other events throughout the Midwest area. Her music is from the 16th Century through the Civil War era. She and her husband, De-Wayne, are also active in Civil War reenactments.

and the Wolcott family cemetery is nearby for self-guided tours. Tickets for the 2010 fundraising raffle will be available. This year�s prizes include a framed and signed print, “Lake Erie’s Marblehead in the Spring,” by Port Clinton artist Rosemary Schramm; a sterling Marblehead Hook bracelet from G.S.E. jewelers of Port Clinton; a Cabin Star King quilt and shams; or John Deere lamp from Martha and Molly�s of Marblehead. Tickets are $1 each, or six for $5 at the Annex or from any OCHS member.

Pies, brownies, ice cream and beverages will be avail-able for purchase on the grounds. Picture yourself as Benajah or Rachel in our new photomurals by Jodie McCallum and Danbury school art students.

The Keeper’s House was purchased by the Ottawa County Historical Soci-ety in 1989, and has been carefully restored and maintained to serve as a piece of living history and as a site for tours, reenact-ments and other events to showcase the history of Ot-tawa County and northern Ohio. The expansive lawn and natural amphitheater makes a great venue for music and performances.

The house is supported through donations, grants and fundraisers. Bring your own lawn chair. Visit www.thekeepershouse.org for information.

Zachary Dane Auxter has obtained the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout from the Boy Scouts of America. He is a member of Troop 360 of Port Clinton, sponsored by Trinity United Methodist Church. Zach has been in scouting since he became a Ti-ger scout in first grade with Cub Scout Pack 361 of St. John Lutheran Church. He fin-ished Cub Scout-ing by earning the Arrow of Light.

The climb to be-coming an Eagle has afforded many learning and lead-ership opportuni-ties. Having earned 29 merit badges, served as Patrol Leader, Assistant PL, Senior PL, Junior Assistant Scout-master and completing an Eagle scout project, Zach has gained many life skills. He is also a member of the Order of the Arrow.

The Eagle Scout project Zach chose was to renovate the

youth loft at St. John Lutheran Church. Planning and approval started in spring of 2009. Zach was responsible for design, planning, raising more than $3,800, materials and coordinating more than 300 hours of labor. After a hot summer of painting, electrical work, adding ceiling fans, constructing and installating siding white boards, renovating cabinetry and general cleaning, the project was dedicated Oct. 4. Zach then spent the winter writing a required detailed manuscript of the project to bring before the Board for final review. Zach will be honored at an Eagle Scout Court of Honor Sunday, July 11, at St. John Lutheran Church.

This project could not have been accomplished with-out generous support from friends, family, fellow scouts and leaders, St. John youth group, Pastor Jim Lehman, Pastor Dan Keck, Council President Bob Polachek, members of the congregation, Lowe’s (Fremont), Ace Hardware, the VFW Post 2480, the Elks Lodge No. 1718, Allied Waste, and special mention to the Fraternal Order of Eagles No. 2295, Bruce Bridgeman, Harvey Bachtel, Kyle Auxter and Bill Fehnrich.

Zach is a senior at Port Clinton High School. He is a member of National Honor Society, Spanish Club, Key Club, the football and tennis teams and band all while maintaining a 4.0 GPA. He enjoys outdoor activities in all seasons, table tennis and American history. Zach serves as a member of the St. John Brass at his church and currently works at the Catawba Island Club. He is the oldest son of Kim and Angela Auxter.

The 116th annual convention of the Lakeside Federa-tion of Women’s Club’s will be held July 14 at Lakeside. The federation includes 20 clubs from northwest Ohio. Women from this area have been meeting annually since 1894 to hear speakers of interest and to exchange information.

Co-presidents Evelyn Bachman of the Bowling Green Women’s Club and Elaine Barth of the Tiffin Women’s Club chose for the theme of the convention “Saluting the Women of Today.” With this theme in mind, clubs of the federation are asked to submit one member to be honored at the convention for the work they have done in their clubs and communities.

Vice-president Mary Oyer, program chairwoman from the Wauseon Women’s Club, reports that the con-vention will meet at Green Gables, the Lakeside Wom-en’s Club home. Members, wearing hats and gloves, will be greeted by Eleanore Roosevelt, portrayed by Gale Conrad from the American Association of University Women. The luncheon will be served at the historic Lakeside Hotel with a presentation by Betty Darst who will re-enact Orville and Wilbur Wright’s sister. Betty has dramatized the story of “Wil and Orv” internation-ally and is a member of the International Aircraft As-sociation. She also serves on the planning committee for Women Soar.

In the afternoon five women will tell how they have started their own businesses. The presenters include: Sandy Wicks — purses, Deborah Woolridge — jewelry, Judith Sanderson — angels and other pins, Linda Smith — author of a children’s book, and artist Shirley Tat-lock, who paints on glass.

Interested community members are invited to attend. Registration is $4, the Lakeside gate fee is $9 and the cost of the luncheon is $13.50.

For information call 419-352-1672.

Playmakers Civic Theatre’s final production of their 63rd season will be the irreverent and hilarious spoof “Nunsense” by Dan Goggin. The story concerns five nuns from Hoboken who are trying to raise cash to bury the re-maining four of 52 nuns who died of botulism after eating tainted Vichyssoise. They decide to stage a musical to earn the burial money, and the hilarity begins.

Playing the Rev. Mother Superior is veteran Playmaker musical talent Margaret Helbing. Sister Robert Anne will be portrayed by FrankIe Bickel, new to the PCT stage, but not to musical theater. Frankie is also the show’s chore-ographer. Connie Mosher returns to Playmakers after too long an absence to play Sister Mary Hubert. Arriving

at the convent without one clue to her identity is Sister Mary Amnesia sung by Brenda BouSliman who is also the show’s director. Rounding out this quintet of quirky sis-ters will be PCHS Drama Club and track stand-out Emily Dunn playing the novice Sister Mary Leo.

Assisting BouSliman on music are Bob Bell and David Alvarez. Tech director Steve Heineman has been assisted by Alex Szabo and Dale Jensen with Jim and Brenda Mac-Donald as lighting technicians.

“Nunsense” will be presented at 8 p.m. July 8-10 and 15-17 and 2 p.m. July 11 and 18 at Playmakers Theatre, 604 W. Sixth St., Port Clinton. For reservations, call 419-734-5044. Tickets are $15 per person.

Crystal sculptor Ed Kish from Corn-ing, N.Y., will be at Ferguson Gallery on Saturday and Sunday, July 10-11.

A long-time associate of gallery owner Cary Ferguson, Kish will be sharing the inspiration for his hand-engraved crystal pendants. The foun-dation of the jewelry line is “Soul.”

“Soul,” is one of several pendants available from the artist. It is available

in several sizes with bail options in 14kt gold, 14kt white gold and ster-ling silver. Each piece is presented in a double plush velvet bag and is ac-companied by a white linen trade-mark card with translucent explana-tion card.

The copper wheel carving into the back of the highly polished 42 per-cent lead crystal disc creates a sheen

which causes a significant “light event” as viewed from the front. This light event, similar to a hologram, can be seen as a symbol of one’s soul.

Ferguson Gallery is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. For infor-mation, contact gallery manager Kim Mazur at 419-734-0600 or [email protected].

I would go through the change in my parents grocery store looking for rare dates and errors. Once, I found a silver quarter that I sold for $300.00. Not bad for an 8 year old.” Fuller went on to explain that any U.S. coins made before 1964 are most sought after by collectors. Coins made before

Artists-N-Cahoots moves to new home

SHOOTERS RECEPTION

LAKESIDE — Artists-N-Cahoots, the popular Lakeside store established by two Rhein Center artists and Lakesiders, Joyce Christman and Erin Rosson, has a new location to celebrate its fifth year. Artists-N-Cahoots can now be found at 222 Walnut Ave., the space formerly oc-cupied by the Cokesbury Bookstore.

Christman and Rosson said they are en-joying the additional space, and that the store is able to accommodate more art-work, including paintings, jewelry, orna-ments and stained glass. The new space also makes the store accessible to a great-er number of customers, including those who are handicapped or have strollers.

“People can linger and can take their time and appreciate the art,” Christman explained.

After two weeks of being in their new location, Rosson said the response from customers has been enthusiastic. “People who have been to the old location before are blown away. They can see everything now and they love it,” Rosson said.

Christman and Rosson had previously taught together in Columbus and be-came reacquainted at Lakeside. Christ-man describes them as “two teachers who love and promote art and artists.”

After spending summers selling their own artwork off their porches, they be-came inspired to create a venue for artists to sell their artwork. The great response from Lakesiders and the community’s enthusiasm for the Rhein Center encour-aged them, and they eventually made a proposal to the Lakeside Association to open the store.

“They (the artists) volunteer to teach there and this is the one place where they have the opportunity to sell. But we also need to credit all the Rhein Center art-ists, guests and residents who support us,” Christman said.

Artists-N-Cahoots features Rhein Center artists such as Ruth App, Robert Bruce, Jane Foy, Joan Garverick, Neil Glaser, Myra Leeper, Carol Murray and Juliann Breting Rohn.

If you’re in one of the early waves of baby boomers, you may know some retirees who are now enjoying a wide variety of activities — possibly even including a new career. And you, too, may now have some choices about how to spend your time. Should you stay at your current job? Should you retire altogether and travel or pursue hobbies? Or should you “retire” and then start a new job, do some con-sulting or even open your own business? While you may have choices on how to draw an in-come, you’ll also have some key issues to consider.

For starters, think about how your earnings might affect one source of retirement income:

Social Security. As an early wave baby boomer, your “full retire-ment age,” from a Social Security standpoint, will be around 66. If you are younger than full retirement age during all of 2010, you will lose $1 from your benefits for each $2 you earn above $14,160. But if you reach your full retirement age during 2010, you’ll lose $1 from your benefits for each $3 you earn above $37,680 until the month you reach that age. (Keep in mind that these figures are for 2010 only; for changes in 2011 and succeeding years, you’ll want to check with the Social Security Administration.) Once you reach full retirement age, you can keep all your benefits, no matter how

much you earn.

Deciding what to do about Social Security isn’t the only move you need to make if you work during your “normal” retirement years. You’ll also want to contribute as much as possible to your IRA, 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan. During these years, with your children grown and your mortgage possibly paid, you may have more investable income available — so take advantage of the opportunity.

You’ll also need to carefully review your portfolio to help ensure your investment mix is appropriate for your needs. To stay ahead of inflation, you’ll still

need to invest for growth, but since you’re not that far from retirement, you’ll also want to control risk and volatility as much as possible.

Furthermore, you’re at the time of life when you may want to consider consolidating your investment and retirement accounts. If you have an IRA here, a 401(k) there and another account someplace else, you have a lot of paperwork to keep track of, both during the year and, especially, at tax time. But even more importantly, with all your accounts scattered, you might not be following one central, unifying investment approach — an approach that could help make it easier for you to pursue

your long-term goals, including a comfortable retirement. By consolidating your accounts with one company, you can save time and possibly reduce administra-tive fees — while your accounts can work in harmony on your behalf.

This may be a good time to consult with a professional fi-nancial advisor — someone who can help you make those choices that can help provide you with the freedom to spend this next phase of your life doing as you please. After all, you’ve earned it.

Joining Lisa is her 13-year-old daughter, Kylee, who loves to create jewelry as well.

“She has a totally different style than my own and to-gether we can accommodate all ages,” Lisa said.

Lisa’s Bloomers is open 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.To learn more about Lisa Bloomer’s or to place a custom

SALVATION ARMY

‘Dragonflies and Damselflies’

Curious about dragon-flies and damselflies? Join Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge staff at 2 p.m. Sun-day, July 11, for a presenta-tion entitled “Dragonflies and Damselflies.” Learn about dragonfly natural history and identification during an indoor presenta-tion, and if weather is nice, head outside to test your identification skills. All ages welcome; the program is free and open to the pub-lic.

Auto TourDrive through 7 miles of

the refuge which are nor-mally closed to the public.

The auto tour route will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, July 17. Drive at your own pace as you travel along a well-marked route, following a self-guided tour brochure found at the route entrance. Make sure you stop at the refuge’s Vis-itor Center. Explore hands-on exhibits and watch a short film about the natu-ral and cultural history of the Lake Erie marsh eco-system and the Great Black Swamp.

For information about these or other programs, visit www.fws.gov/mid-west/ottawa or call 419-898-0014. The refuge en-trance is located 16 miles west of Port Clinton on the north side of Ohio 2.

On June 21st, 20 chil-dren got up early, load up a chartered bus filled with snacks & movies, and head to Camp NEOSA in Car-rollton for a week filled with swimming, canoeing, hiking, outside sport activi-ties, arts and crafts, and lots of fun.

On June 26, all 20 came home after a week of fun.

Camp NEOSA — North-east Ohio Salvation Army — is one of the many pro-grams offered by The Sal-vation Army-Port Clinton Service Unit. Camp NEOSA provides an atmosphere where campers learn skills in developing their physi-cal, social and spiritual needs. To assist in the de-velopment skills of each camper, the camp is aimed

at helping learn good health habits, provides an oppor-tunity to contribute to and receive from a group living experience, and participate in activities that stimulate creativity and foster inde-pendence. The Port Clinton Service Unit has provided this opportunity to approx-imately 20 campers each year for the past 12 years.

Currently, the Salvation Army is taking applications for its Tools for School pro-gram and needs bell ringers for Christmas in July.

Those interested in pro-grams offered by the local office can call Maureen Sap-onari at 419-732-ARMY, ext. 2769, or stop in at the Sutton Center, 1854 E. Perry St., Suite 800, in Port Clinton.

HURON — The Huron Playhouse pres-ents: “The Importance of Being Earnest.” Enjoy this world-famous farce with mem-orable characters and plot twists. “The Im-portance of Being Earnest” runs through July 10 at The Huron Playhouse, located in the McCormick Middle School on Ohio Street.

This comedy revolves, with great wit, around a notable and ingenious case of “manufactured’ mistaken identity. It tells the tale of John Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff, who have taken to “bending the truth” in order to add a dash of excitement to their lives. However, their deceptions eventually cross paths, resulting in a series

of hilarious crises that threaten to spoil their pursuits of their true loves, Gwendo-lyn and Cecily.

Appearing in the multi-talented cast are: Jake Robinson (Cincinnati) as Algernon Moncrieff; Josh Moore (Clearwater, Fla.) as John Worthing J.P.; Britney Koser (Hu-ron) as Lady Bracknell; Bethany Edlund (Fort Wayne, Ind.) as Honorable Gwen-dolen Fairfax; Miriam Henkel-Moellmann (Cincinnati) as Cecily Cardew; Jennifer Lefsyk (Niskayuna, N.Y.) as Miss Prism, governess; Brian Crowley (Mentor) as Rev. Canon Chasuble, D.D.; Adam Schalter (East Lansing, Mich.) as Merriman, butler; Stephen Loewen (Naperville, Ill.) as Foot-

man; and Dan Floren (Eau Claire, Wis.) as Lane, man-servant.

Ken McCoy (Deland, Fla.) directs The Importance of Being Earnest. Ken last di-rected “Kiss Me Kate” and performed in “1776” at The Playhouse. Kelly Wiegant Mangan (Bowling Green) designs an elegant set that compliments the time pe-riod. Lighting designer is

Joey Sarno (Kinston, N.C.); Carol Alt (Saukville, Wis.) is costume coordinator; sound design by Phil Wooding (Kenosha, Wis.); Daniel Mangan (Bowling Green) is technical director; assistant director is Angela Broz (Bowling Green); and Nate Heldstab (Crookston, Minn.) will be the production stage manager assisted by Katherine Eboch (Maumee) and Stephen Loewen (Naperville, Ill.).

Ticket prices for all Huron Playhouse productions are $16 for adults, $14 for stu-dents and seniors, and $11 for children un-der 12. The curtain time is 8 p.m. nightly (Tuesday through Saturday). For reserva-tions and information, contact The Huron Playhouse at 419-433-4744.

HURON — Sawmill Creek Resort has part-nered with Lake Erie Boat Week for the inaugural event in 2010.

Lake Erie Boat Week is a new national boating festival planned for Sept. 7-12 and headquartered at the Huron Boat Basin, with activities to be held on Lake Erie and the Huron River.

Events include a powerboat regatta, “Fastest Boat on Lake Erie” Competition held on Lake Erie and an APR Powerboat Superleague powerboat race (100-mph boats), held in the Huron River and at the Huron Boat Basin.

“Everyone at Sawmill Creek Resort is so excited about this new Lake Erie Boat Week event,” said Greg Hill, CEO and general partner at the resort. “As soon as I heard about this amazing boating festival, I knew we had to be involved.

“This national event will be an incremental boost to our local econ-omy and bring our com-munity together like nev-er before. Sawmill Creek Resort is proud to be in-volved with the first-ever event of this kind to our region,� said Hill. �We are ‘all in’ and can’t wait for

this event to happen for the city of Huron and the entire area.”

Vendor, advertising, VIP packages and sponsorship opportunities are still avail-able for the inaugural Lake Erie Boat Week event. Visit the official event website at www.LakeErieBoatWeek.com for infor-mation, or contact the event director Janie Vogel at 440-915-7627, [email protected],

First Lake Erie Boat Week set for September

It has been nine months since Per-ry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial closed for restoration yet the number of education programs available to the public has increased. From historic reenactments to inter-active lectures, Perry’s Victory offers a variety of artfully crafted programs appropriate for the whole family — all free of charge, said Memorial Su-perintendent Blanca Alvarez Stransky.

Visitors are invited to come and en-joy any number of park ranger pre-sentations throughout the summer. The educational programs, offered daily, provide unique perspectives on the people, events and landscapes surrounding the War of 1812, added Stransky.

Children’s programs are offered dai-ly at 11:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. These programs provide children 4 years of age and older with physical and cre-ative outlets. There are several new programs this year including con-struction tours around the memorial grounds presented daily at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. These programs high-light both the ongoing repairs, and the causes of the deterioration of the Memorial.

On Mondays, Wednesdays and Sun-days, visitors can interact with park rangers dressed in period costume at one of the living history camps. Traditional campfire programs are offered at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays, Thurs-days and Sundays featuring topics such as Campfire Stories and The Lighter Side of the War of 1812.

As part of an effort to provide an environmental prospective, Park Ranger Kathie Holbrook, a profes-sor of biology and aquatics, teaches visitors about the impacts of inva-sive species and the health of Lake Erie. In partnership with Ohio State University Sea Grant Program (Stone Lab), two Ohio State University un-dergraduates — Park Ranger Megan Schuster, a student of zoology, and Park Ranger Nick Cooper, a student of environmental science — present natural history programs throughout the week. Nick and Megan work at Perry’s Victory three days a week and attend classes on Gibraltar Island the rest of the time.

Despite the closing of the Memo-rial, Perry’s Victory is teaming with information and inspiration to share. All programs are free of charge.

As the “fastest way to Put-in-Bay and Kelleys Island,” The Jet Express is an easy means of transportation to the Lake Erie Islands. Other than The Jet’s regular boat schedule though, there are excursion adventures of-fered.

On July 9, The Jet will take pas-sengers to Pelee Island where a wine tasting and hog roast will take place. This particular trip is open to all U.S. citizens with a valid U.S. Passport for proof of citizenship. The cost is $85 per person, and the boat will depart at 5 p.m. from Port Clinton or 5:30

p.m. from Put-in-Bay and will arrive at Pelee Island at 6 p.m. Once there, a tram will take everyone to the Pelee Island Winery. After hors d oeuvres and a wine tasting, there will be a picnic-style dinner with appetizers featuring a pig roast and barbecue chicken legs, veggies and dessert. Wa-ter and sweet tea will be provided and soft drinks and wines will be available to purchase.

Live entertainment will also be in-cluded in the evening, but taking a tour of the vineyard, looking in the winery’s gift and souvenir shop or ex-

ploring the island via taxi service and tour shuttle are also possibilities. The boat will then depart Pelee Island at 10 p.m.

Other upcoming excursion adven-tures include a trip to the Cleveland Indians vs. New York Yankees game July 29, another Pelee Island wine tasting and pig roast Aug. 6 and a To-ledo to Put-in-Bay day cruise benefit-ting the Toledo Animal Shelter Aug. 29.

For excursion adventure reserva-tions or any questions about the Jet Express, call 800-245-1538.
