Historical marker erected at Fort Meigs Union Cemetery
Fort Meigs Union Cemetery recently received an Ohio Historical Marker designation after a two year process
guided by Judy Justus, past president of Historic Perrysburg, Inc., president of the Perrysburg Area Historic
Museum and local historian. However, Mrs. Justus said it was Marie Snyder, Fort Meigs cemetery historian and
teacher, who motivated her to pursue the historical distinction from the Ohio Historical Society.
“For many years, I would listen to Marie tell stories about Fort Meigs cemetery–wonderful historic stories.
The cemetery is certainly a historical site,” said Mrs. Justus. “I brought the idea to Historic Perrysburg, and the
board under the leadership of Becky Visser agreed to fund the project.” And the rest is history...
The Fort Meigs Union Cemetery Historical Marker reads: “The village of Perrysburg was founded in 1816 and
Wood County in 1820. In 1822 the town established a village cemetery and located it on the southwest corner of
West Indiana at Cherry Streets. By 1848 it was full and a new one was created on West Boundary and Indiana
Avenue. The first burial was that of William Cassady in 1849. The cholera epidemic of 1854 that caused over
one hundred deaths, overloaded the small cemetery workforce.
“Potters Field was designed in 1868 on the northwest corner of Block Two. In 1877 Perrysburg Township
bought adjacent land in sections K and L and joined forces to create Fort Meigs Union Cemetery There are nine
underground vaults in the side of the terrace by the old Ewing Creek stream bed adjacent to the 1912 mausoleum.
“An exposed section of the old Ewing Creek bisects the older portion of the cemetery. In Block M, running
southerly from the streambed valley, British howitzer emplacement ruts from the two sieges against Fort Meigs
in the War of 1812 and still visible and were donated to the Ohio Historical Society by the lot owners.
“Block One was designated as a Civil War Memorial to the hundreds of local men who died in that conflict.
There are military men and women buried here who served in all ten conflicts where the United States was
involved.
“A Cremation Garden is located on the far west side of the oldest part of the cemetery. South of the cemetery, across Indiana Avenue, is the newer portion expanded in 1979 and features a large pond fronted by the
Police and Fire Memorial.”
The Ohio Historical Society sets marker standards and procedures to ensure that the subjects of Ohio Historical Markers are historically significant and that the information included on the markers is historically accurate.

Visser; Mrs. Justus; Bob Warnimont, cemetery board trustee, and Perrysburg Mayor Nelson Evans.
Lightning strikes St. Rose Church
Blaze confined to spire of historic structure
water damage in and above
the main vestibule. It appears
that our historic pipe organ
was not damaged.
“Interior lights and the
electrical system for the bells
were damaged by the lightning strike.”
The Rev. Borger said the
church would work quickly to
weather-proof the steeple, and
true to his word, a crane
arrived the following day.
On Wednesday morning a
crew was at work wrapping
the steeple to protect the
church from further damage
from the elements.
“We have a restoration and
cleaning team working on the
interior of the church to
remove any excess water and
to clean the affected areas,” he
said.
Architects and engineers
also began evaluating the
integrity of the steeple structure and assisting with plans
for its repair.
“While much work
remains to be done, the majority of the work will be isolated
to the steeple and church balcony areas,” the Rev. Borger
said, and added that he hopes
a cross can be returned to the
top of the steeple by this summer.
He expressed his appreciation to the many parishioners
who came forward and
offered to clean. “Many hands
make light work,” he added.
The church was ready for
the Mass of the Lord’s Supper
on April 5 as well as Easter
Sunday services.

Above, left, the cross which sat atop the church topples
to the ground as the fire intensifies. Top right, the fire
begins to spread down from the top of the spire as firefighters wait for Maumee’s aerial truck to be raised.
The Perrysburg Fire Division was called to St. Rose
Church last Tuesday after
lightning struck the church
steeple, igniting a fire.
Fire units were dispatched
to the historical structure, built
in 1893, at 10:39 a.m. and
found the steeple on fire. The
fire division’s efforts to fight
the blaze were hindered
because the ladder truck was
unable to reach high enough
to throw water on the fire.
To reach the the top of the
170-foot-high steeple, firefighters relied on Maumee’s
aerial ladder truck, which,
fully extended, was able to
throw water on the blaze.
“At approximately noon,
the fire was extinguished from
the outside,” said Deputy Fire
Chief Wade Johnson, adding
that firefighters were then able
to access the steeple for final
extinguishment.
In addition to Maumee,
firefighters from Perrysburg
Township and Rossford also
responded to the scene
Damage to the church interior was confined to the main
entrance and was mainly
water related.
The top 15 feet of the
church steeple did sustain
serious damage, and the cross
atop the church was
destroyed.
Deputy Chief Johnson estimates damage at $200,000,
the vast majority of which
will be covered by insurance.
Following the fire Rev.
Marv Borger expressed his
appreciation to area fire
departments. “The fire departments did a fantastic job,” he
said.
He also issued a statement
to parishioners. “Sometimes
in life, lightning strikes. That
is what literally happened this
morning.”
He reassured parishioners
that damage to the church was
minimal. “There is some

Commissioners mull expansion of county jail
By Jane Maiolo
To deal with an expected rise in the jail population, the Wood County
Commissioners are considering a $5.2 million addition to the county justice
center.
At the commissioners’
March 27 meeting, Wood
County Sheriff Mark
Wasylyshyn presented
plans to expand the number
of jail cells by up to 90 and
increase the current size of
the booking area.
Currently the jail can
house up to 149 inmates,
said the sheriff, adding that
when the county exceeds
capacity, prisoners must be
housed at another jail and
the county must pay $45
per day to house the
inmates elsewhere.
“Today there are 13
[inmates] at other locations,” he told the commissioners.
The sheriff believes the
jail
population
will
increase, due in large part
to Ohio House Bill 86.
Designed to reduce the
number of inmates serving
time in state prisons, HB
86 prohibits direct prison
sentences for certain felony
four and five convictions
such as drug offenses.
Those
individuals
instead are sentenced to
rehabilitation centers for
counseling and treatment,
said the sheriff. But
because many rehabilitation centers have waiting
lists, convicted felons must
be housed at the county
until rehab becomes available.
“The state’s [prisoner]
numbers are down. They’re
excited, but the reduced
prison population is coming on the backs of the
counties,” said Sheriff
Wasylyshyn, adding that
the average length of stay
for inmates in the county
has been increasing.
The sheriff presented
renderings by Wachtel and
McAnally of the existing
work industries building,
which could be converted,
into a prison area for an
additional 60 prisoners.
The second floor mezzanine also could be
redesigned to accommodate up to 36 more beds.
The project will cost an
estimated $1 million, said
the sheriff, adding that the
expansion will allow Wood
County to save money it
currently spends to house
the overflow prison population at other correctional
facilities.
Additionally, with the
expanded jail the county
would be in a position to
charge other correctional
institutions to house their
overflow population. The
sheriff believes that if the
jail and addition were full
every day for a year, it
would pay for itself.
Another problem facing
the county jail is its holding cell or intake area. The
facility has five cells and
Sheriff Wasylyshyn is
proposing to expand it to
31 booking cells at a cost
of $4.2 million.
He said the existing
facility has proven problematic, particularly when
there are a large number of
bookings. He referred to
the recent arrests of a large
retail theft ring by Perrysburg Township police and
other jurisdictions. It took
six hours to book more
than 40 people, he said.
Booking cells are used
for other purposes as well.
Inmates on suicide watch,
those needing to be separated from the general population or anyone going
through detox is kept there,
he explained, noting that at
one point last month all
five cells were full.
Booking cells also are
used each time an inmate
goes to and from court or is
transported for work
release. “We book and
release more than 6,000 per
year, the equivalent of the
population of Rossford,”
he said.
The sheriff believes
expanding the booking
cells to 31 and increasing
the bed capacity to 96 will
serve Wood County well
into the future. “This is
large enough to handle
anticipated future expansion [of the jail population],” he said.
Following the presentation, Commissioner Jim
Carter asked whether the
sheriff has prioritized the
two projects.
The sheriff responded,
“Both are equally important.” The additional
inmate accommodations
will stop the flow of money
out of the county, but having only five booking cells
affects the prison’s ability
to process inmates, he
explained.
Commissioner
Tim
Brown commended the
sheriff for working with his
staff and community leaders to assess future needs
of the county. “You did a
good job,” he said, adding,
“We need to look at funds.
We have a little homework
to do on our end.”
The commissioners
questioned whether the
sheriff had tried to acquire
grants for the project. Sheriff Wasylyshyn said the
department applied for
ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act)
funds but did not receive
them.
The commissioners will
assess the county’s financial situation before determining whether to proceed
on one or both parts of the
project.
New medical devices aid EMTs
in cases of cardiac arrest
To better treat victims of
cardiac arrest, Perrysburg
Township has acquired two
new medical devices.
Township Fire Chief
Tom Brice said the first unit
is an automatic CPR (cardio
pulmonary resuscitation)
device recommended by the
American Heart Association.
“It takes the human variable out and provides good
consistent compressions,”
said the chief.
Before purchasing the
unit, paramedics had the
opportunity to use a demonstration unit for a month.
“We used it on two patients
and were able to return both
to a normal pulse,” said the
chief.
The success of the auto
CPR unit prompted the chief
to purchase one at a cost of
$14,000.
The device, which is
portable and fits into a backpack, is carried on all life
squad runs.
“It’s simple, straightforward to use and battery
operated,” he added.
The chief demonstrated
the device on a practice
dummy. He placed the back
strap behind the patient at
the breastbone and then
snapped the compression
into place above the patient.
The compression unit is
then lowered to the patient’s
chest and with a press of a
button, the unit delivers
standard two-inch compressions, 30 at a time.
The unit then automatically pauses to allow paramedics to pump oxygen into
the patient’s airway. The
procedure is repeated until
the patient returns to normal
heart rhythm.
Chief Brice said paramedics have used the device
successfully on patients of
varying size. “We used it on
a person who was 350
pounds,” he added.
He believes the unit
greatly increases a cardiac
arrest victim’s chance of
survival. With paramedics,
compression can vary in
Fire Chief Tom Brice demonstrates on a dummy how the
CPR unit delivers precise chest compressions to a patient.
consistency from one EMT
to the next, and paramedics
must take turns working on
patients because they can
quickly become fatigued
applying compressions.
The machine eliminates
that, said the chief, adding
that “the guys [EMTs] like it
and it is much easier for
them to conduct resuscitation.”
In addition to using automatic CPR, the paramedics
use another device to
administer breaths.
The laryngoscope by
Kingvision allows EMTs to
visually see the air passage
and open it up to administer
oxygen.
The unit comes with a
miniature camera and when
a patient’s mouth is opened,
the laryngoscope with a disposable tube attached is
placed in the mouth. With
the aid of a camera, the tube
is carefully inserted between
the vocal cords.
A plastic squeeze bulb on
the other end of the tube
allows EMTs to pump oxygen into the patient’s airway.
Chief Brice said the
device, purchased for
$1,100, alleviates the need
for paramedics to try to
position the tube manually.
He noted that patients
often have obstructions or
have regurgitated, making a
clear view of the throat difficult to see with the naked
eye.
“And if the tube is not in
the right place, it could be
serious,” he added.
EMTs have had the
device for about a month,
and have used it on cardiac
arrest victims as well as
those with other respiratory
issues.
“We’re waiting to see
how well it works in real
situations,” said the fire
chief, adding that if the
device performs well, the
department will purchase
more as funds become available.

Employees at the factory
are looking for a 7-½ cent

won’t take no for an
answer.
Babe Williams is the
employee representative
who goes up against shop
superintendent Sid Sorokin,
and the conflict between
management and labor
evolves into a battle of the
sexes.

are presently working to attain
their official Ohio Clean Marina Program certification.
“We enjoyed a positive 2011
and are expecting to achieve
more this year to increase
awareness and participation
throughout the Great Lakes,”
said Sarah Orlando, extension
educator with Ohio Sea Grant
and coordinator of the Ohio
Clean Marinas and Clean
Boaters programs.
Among the achievements in
2011 for the Ohio Clean Marinas Program were:
•More than 155,000 pounds
of shrink wrap were kept out of
landfills through the Ohio
ShrinkWrap Recycling Program. Four thousand pounds of
shrink wrap were collected
from boats at the 2011 MidAmerica Boat and Fishing
Show in Cleveland, and more
than 150,000 pounds of shrink
wrap were collected in the
spring of 2011 from more than
100 marinas participating in the
recycling effort.
•Turtle Creek Marina in Oak
Harbor joined the list of certified Ohio Clean Marinas, making a commitment to
voluntarily implement best
practices to improve Lake Erie
air and water quality.
•Nearly 40 boaters took the
Ohio Clean Boater Pledge to
follow Best Boater Practices
(BBPs) to improve Ohio’s
water resources. There now are

on the
Wood County
Dog Shelter
listing
735 pledged Clean Boaters
throughout Ohio. To take the
pledge, go to: http:// ohioseagrant.osu

boaters/pledge/
•A research project was conducted on enhancing artificial
habitat structures at marinas and
its effect on fish populations.
•Ohio joined forces with
Michigan and Wisconsin Sea
Grant through a regional Green
Marinas Education and Outreach project, supported by the
Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. The project is geared toward improving educational
opportunities for Clean Marinas.
The Ohio Clean Marinas
Program is a proactive partnership developed in cooperation
among the Ohio Sea Grant College Program, Ohio Department of Natural Resources, the
Lake Erie Marine Trades Association and other partners to encourage marinas and boaters to
use simple, innovative solutions
to keep Ohio’s coastal and inland waterway resources clean.
The Ohio Clean Marinas and
Ohio Clean Boaters programs
together promote environmental stewardship by making
marinas and boaters more
aware of environmental laws,
rules and jurisdictions, and to
get as many marinas as possible
to follow best management
practices and to become designated as “Clean Marinas.”

Two separate accidents on
interstates I-475 and I-75 left
several people seriously injured last Tuesday.
Only several hours after responding to the fire at St. Rose
Church, Perrysburg and Perrysburg Township fire and police received a call about an
accident on I-75 southbound
just north of the U.S. Route 20
exit.
Lieutenant
Dean
Laubacher of the Ohio State
Highway Patrol said Buck
Fordney, 41, of Wapakoneta,
was driving southbound in a
tractor trailer when he apparently failed to maintain an assured clear distance from two
slow-moving vehicles in front
of him.
Mr. Fordney struck the car
in front of him, which was
driven by Diane Lambert, 44,
of Lincoln Park, Michigan.
Ms. Lambert’s car then hit
a vehicle driven by Tonie
Barks, 36, of Flat Rock, Michigan, before veering off the side
of the road and into a ditch.
Ms. Barks’ car went off the
left side of the road and came
to rest in the median, said the
lieutenant.
Mr. Fordney was transported by Perrysburg Township EMS to St. Luke’s
Hospital, and Ms. Lambert,
who had to be extricated from
her vehicle, was transported to
Mercy/St. Vincent Medical
Center.
Ms. Barks sustained minor
injuries and refused medical
treatment at the scene, he said,
adding that all three drivers
were wearing their seat belts.
Mr. Fordney was cited for
failing to maintain an assured
clear distance. Ms. Lambert
and Ms. Barks were cited for
slow speed.
The accident remains under
investigation. The OHP was
assisted at the scene by the
Perrysburg and Perrysburg
Township police and fire departments.
Less than an hour later another accident occurred at
milemark 2 on I-475 near the
Fort Meigs Road overpass.
Perrysburg Deputy Chief
Mike Gilmore said the accident happened at 1:19 p.m. and
involved six vehicles and a
semi-trailer.
The deputy chief said the
tractor trailer driver apparently
struck other vehicles which
were stopped in traffic due to
highway construction at the I475 bridge over the Maumee
River.
Four people were injured
and transported to area hospitals and interstate traffic was
backed up for hours while
emergency crews worked to
clear the roadway.

By Mary Murdock
What would posses a
man, well into middle age, to
walk 30.1 miles along the
Appalachian Trail in Tennessee and North Carolina–
in rain, heat or snow? And accomplish this feat in 14 hours
maximum at a speed of at
least 3 miles per hour?
In other words, he will be
tackling nearly 6,000 feet of
vertical elevation and adjusting to changing trail conditions and weather conditions.
This walk in the park is know
as “Extreme Hiking”–the
fourth annual Wells Fargo Securities Hike for a Cure.
My brother, Rogan Murdock, Perrysburg native and
1963 Perrysburg High School
graduate, accepted this unusual challenge from his son,
Brant, a 1993 PHS graduate.
“Dad,” the conversation
probably went, “my company
helps sponsor a fund-raiser
for the Cystic Fibrous Foundation every year and I
thought we could do a father/son walk. What do you
think?”
“Brant, I’ll be 67 when the
walk occurs. Just because I
walk two or three miles each
day doesn’t mean I can hike
30 miles. No, I don’t think
so.”
Later, but not much later,
Rogan changed his mind.
After all, how often would he
have the chance to do something like this with his son?
So the challenge began.
Rogan went from two or
three miles each day to eight
miles weekly and now 20
mile hikes.
He began receiving
weekly e-mails from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF)
detailing hiking information
he would need to know.
Advice on what boots and
equipment to purchase and
how to break them in, extensive information on what to
carry–water, food, first aid
kit, headlamp and rain gear.
Also included is a detailed
training calendar and advice
on how to read the mountainous trail with or without a
map.
Father and son team of Rogan and Brant Murdock prepare for their trial walk on the
Appalachian Trail. They will be participating in the fourth annual Wells Fargo Securities Extreme Hike for a Cure for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation on April 28.
This was becoming an expensive little walk in the
mountains but Rogan persevered, bought his supplies
and then Brant invited him to
North Carolina for a trial 10mile hike. It was at this juncture that Rogan had to face
the music.
He learned he must walk
an average speed of 3 miles
each hour every step of the
way.
This was the real challenge.
Anyone who knows my
brother knows he could politely be called “hardheaded.” Sometimes this
tendency actually works in
his favor.
He joined a fitness center
and essentially has been
changing his lifestyle. Accustomed to eating pizza and
popcorn, Rogan now eats
whey protein, tuna with no
mayo, turkey, chicken, oat-
meal, rice and vegetables.
And he faithfully works out
at the gym.
Participating in an the extreme hike is one thing. Living with a genetic disease like
cystic fibrosis, which attacks
the lungs and digestive system and gives only an average lifespan of 37 years, is a
challenge that most of us will
never experience. Every day
is a challenge for those who
live with this diagnosis.
In 1950, average lifespan
for a child with cystic fibrosis was just a year or two; by
1990, it was raised to about
27 years. Today, with a survival rate of 37 years, a person with the disease still
won’t live to see their children grow up.
The Extreme Hike for a
Cure is fighting back with donations to the CFF.
The foundation receives
no government funding and
an astounding 90 percent of
donations go directly to funding research for more than
30,000 children and young
adults in the United States.
Brant and Rogan have
been charged with raising
$10,000.
They were initially tasked
with raising $6,000 and they
did. CFF was so happy that
they asked to them to raise
even more.
For more information on
the hike or to make a donation, visit the Web site at
www.cff.org/LWC/brantand
roganmurdock.
Contributions also can be
sent to CFF, Attn. Hike, 7506
East Independence Boulevard, Suite 120, Charlotte,
North Carolina 28227.
And if you see Rogan
walking (and walking and
walking) around town, please
honk, wave or shout an encouraging word.

PERRYSBURG MESSENGER JOURNAL — April 11, 2012 — Page 5
Kevin Wise achieves rank of Eagle Scout
Kevin Wise, 18, of Perrysburg, was honored with
the highest rank in Boy
Scouts of America as an
Eagle Scout Award was presented to him on March 17,
at the Perrysburg Boat Club
by Scoutmaster Ken Kowalski. Kevin is a member of
Troop 167 of St. Rose
Church.
He began as a Tiger Cub
in 2000 in Germantown,
Wisconsin. He learned about
den chiefs, pack meetings,
the Cub Scout promise and
Pinewood Derby races.
He rejoined Cub Scouts
after moving to Connecticut
with his family.
He joined Pack 40 in October 2003 as a second year
Webelo and found many of
his closest friends in scouting. He began going on campouts and learning skills for
camping.
He bridged up to Boy
Scouts and became a member of Troop 45 in Southington, Connecticut, where he
took leadership positions as
assistant and patrol leader.
He earned his Tote’n Chip
and Fireman’s Chit, learning
how to cook outdoors, knot
ropes and use a compass.
While in Troop 45, Kevin
had the opportunity to go
with his father on a 50-mile
canoe trip on the Delaware
River which took five days.
He earned his 50 miler canoe
award.
Kevin continued advanc-

of Honor ceremony.
ing up the ranks of scouting
to First Class Scout.
After the family moved to
Perrysburg, he and his
younger brother Scott joined
St. Rose Troop 167 in 2006.
He has been active with fish
fries, International Camporee, Camp Alaska, Catholic
retreats and summer camps.
He soon became Scribe,
then patrol leader and later
chaplain. He helped older
scouts with their Eagle Service projects and younger
scouts with building camp-
fires and using proper techniques with a knife.
At Blessed John XXIII
Church, he has been an
usher, helped clean after
Generations of Faith programs, shoveled walkways
and stocked shelves at the
Toledo Food Bank.
In spring 2011, Kevin
began his Eagle project,
which consisted of creating a
meditation area overlooking
the back pond at Blessed
John XXIII. The project took
five days, and the hard labor
of 24 scout and parent workers. Kevin led them to dig out
three areas where clay dirt
was moved to other areas.
Then new dirt, mulch, plants,
bushes, a pine tree and edging were put in place. An
area of pavers was placed
and a park bench and bird
feeders added to make a
peaceful setting to enjoy
while looking at the pond.
In July 2010, Kevin was
chosen to enter the Order of
the Arrow. He is now a
brother to the order and
hopes to help out in the future.
Kevin attended Penta Career Center in the auto tech
program and graduated from
Perrysburg High School in
2011. He was in the marching band for two years and
played middie for the
lacrosse team for four years
at PHS.
He is now at Northwood
University in Midland,
Michigan, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in business with
a minor in entrepreneurship.
He started a pep band for
basketball games and recently became creator and
president of a computer gaming club.
Kevin received many certificates at his Court of
Honor Eagle Scout Day,
which was attended by Wood
County Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn, Frank Butwin and
Jim Wilson from Erie Shores
Council and Fr. Herb Weber.

point average of 4.46, while

accomplishment.
“I feel that my level of involvement with my activities
is extraordinary,” Robert said.
He would like to go to college for civil engineering and
afterwards acquire a job in
that field. Five years from
now, he would like to be
“working in an engineering
job after graduating from college, still in college because
of co-ops or in grad school.”
In his years at college,
Robert would like to focus
more on what has to get done
and take a better approach to
learning.
He is seen as well liked by
his teachers, friends and

City at Buckeye Boys State
named after Perrysburg resident
The realignment of the
cities and counties in the
2012 American Legion
Buckeye Boys State program
has resulted in the renaming
of some of the cities and
counties.
One of the cities, Stockner
City has been named in
honor of Joseph Stockner, a
resident of Perrysburg. Mr.
Stockner is a member of Perrysburg American Legion
Post No. 28 and has been a
staff member in the Boys
State program for 35 years.
He is a past president of the
program and is the author of
the school boards section.
The school boards section
affects 165 delegates and has
had delegates become school
board members in their home
communities during their
senior year of high school.

“My teachers have said
that I am intelligent, a pleasure to have in class, I have a
good attitude, and I participate regularly in classroom
discussions,” Robert said.
Peers of Kitson also view
him as a very nice person. A
friend
of
his,
Mark
Liemkuehler, said, “Robert
Kitson is a very kind and hard
working individual that is
very prepared for life after
high school.”
When brought up in conversation, “smart” and
“friendly” are two words people used to describe Kitson.
“I have no enemies, only
friends and closer friends,”
Robert said. “I pretty much
get along with anyone, and if
I don't, I don't make a fuss
about it.”

teacher education and human
services at OCC, received her
master’s of science degree in
home economics education at
Miami University in 1976.
She has served as president of
the Ohio Association for the
Education of Young Children,
representing 3,600 early
childhood members across
the state of Ohio.
Ms. Ciecka traveled to
Reggio Emilia, Italy, in 2003,
where she studied the early
childhood programs recognized around the world as one
of the 10 best educational
systems for young children.
The OCC Child Care Lab
School began implementing
the philosophy in 2003.
Ms. Libby, director of
The Greater Toledo Civil
War Roundtable will meet
Thursday, April 12, at 7:30
p.m., at the Navarre Park
Shelter House, located at
1020 Varland Avenue, Toledo.
Kathleen Jones, past presi-
dent of GTCWRT and current
GTCWRT secretary, will
speak about Union Major
General Israel Bush “Fighting
Dick” Richardson, an 1841
West Point graduate who was
mortally wounded at the Battle of Antietam in 1862.
child care centers and field
placements at OCC, earned a
child development and home
economics education degree
at the University of Georgia
and continued her studies at
Penn State University and
Bowling Green State University, receiving her master’s
degree at BGSU. Ms. Libby
has been a peer reviewer of
child care centers and now
serves as president of the
Ohio Coalition of Associate
Degree Early Childhood. She
also has been trained in the
Reggio approach to early
childhood education.
The speakers will share
their enthusiasm for the Reggio Emilia philosophy and
field questions from the audience. Both Ms. Ciecka and
Ms. Libby have years of
experience directing and
teaching at child care centers

Way to remember the Titanic
with film and music April 13
Way Public Library will
mark the 100th anniversary of
the sinking of the Titanic with
a showing of the 1958 film “A
Night to Remember” on Friday evening, April 13, on the
The library doors will
open at 6 p.m. for an hourlong reception with music by
harp-guitar duo Tapestry, including music of the Titanic
era, with an opportunity to see
a display of Titanic-era memorabilia, including newspaper
coverage of the disaster.
The film “A Night to Remember” will begin at 7 p.m.
The movie is the classic account of the tragic sinking of
the “unsinkable” Titanic,
based on the book of the same
name by Walter Lord. This
film depicts the ship’s final
hours on April 14, 1912,
when it sank just before midnight after striking an iceberg
less than three hours earlier.
An antique Brush car will
be available on site that
evening, thanks to Perrysburg
resident Tom Rectenwald.
Judy Sikorski of Rossford
and Historic Perrysburg, Inc.,
compiled the display items.
The Titanic tea on April 14 at
the Carranor Hunt and Polo
Club will follow the next day.
The Tapestry duo is comprised of Denise Grupp-Verbon, harpist, and Michael
Grupp-Verbon, guitarist.
Ms. Grupp-Verbon has a
master’s degree in harp per-
formance from Northwestern
University and is an adjunct
music instructor at Owens
Community College as well
as a music clinician, private
music teacher, and a freelance musician.
Mr. Grupp-Verbon, who
has several degrees and certifications in computer technology, composes and arranges
much of the material recorded
and performed by Tapestry.
He has been the private student of Grammy Award winning fingerstyle guitarist Al
Petteway.
Tapestry will present some
period music at the April 13
reception. Admission and refreshments are offered free of
charge to this event.

used dresses, shoes, purses,
gloves and jewelry, among
other prom accessories.
Additionally, assistants
will be on hand to help individuals with their shopping
experience.
“The Raising Awareness
Club cannot thank the surrounding
communities
enough for their generosity
and support to the prom dress
event,” said Nicole Lance,
student activities assistant
and club advisor. “We have
almost 500 dresses and a variety of prom-specific items
for high school students and
their families. Our goal is to
lend a helping hand to as
many students as possible
and make sure that they receive a special high school
prom experience.”

The War of 1812 has appeared in many guises in

are colonial and revolutionary history, the American
West, women in early America, American religious history, and Native American
history, as well as historiography.
She earned her Ph.D.

Kansas in 1998, and she also
has taught at Florida Atlantic University and the
University of Arkansas. Her
book, “The Age of Resistance and Removal” (volume
three of a five-volume reference work, “Voices of Native American History”) is
due to be published by Facts
on File this summer.
The program is sponsored by the Anderton Bentley Fund in memory of
Christopher Perky, who
served at Fort Meigs during

Penta students focus on environment
Green Day 2012 brings out latest in energy efficient products
The latest innovations in
wind and solar energy, hybrid
vehicles and energy efficient
construction design were
among the projects displayed
by students at Penta Career
Center’s third annual Green
Day.
Held March 26, Green
Day 2012 provided an opportunity for students, staff and
visitors to explore renewable
energy and what possibilities
the future holds.
Students enrolled in green
energy management, construction, geospatial information systems (GIS), heating,
ventilation and air conditioning, and auto technology programs displayed projects and
explained their functions,
often with hands-on demonstrations.
In GIS, students mapped
out the best places for certain
types of renewable energy.
Green energy management
students highlighted products
that can detect heat loss in
buildings. Construction carpentry students offered tips
on insulating a home and
how to use recycled materials, and HVAC students
talked about the latest in furnace ductwork technology.
Anthony Rorigi, a junior
from Perrysburg High
School, talked about the project he is working on with
classmate Patrick Short in
GIS.
The two have been mapping out the country, county
by county and state by state.
To date they have completed
11 states, and plan to finish
all 50 by the time they graduate.
Anthony explained that
they are looking at the best
places for solar, wind or geothermal technology.
The project is tedious with
the students gathering data on
precipitation, average wind
speed and direction, number
of sunny days and temperatures for each county.
Anthony said they also
learned the role elevation
plays in climate. Higher elevation not only affects temperature, it also impacts precipitation. “The higher the
elevation, the more rain there
is,” he noted.
The students are using the
data they collect to map out
the country. Their colorcoded map indicates the best
places for certain types of
alternative energy.
For example, the map
indicates where wind farms
are likely to perform well.
“States closest to the [Great]
Lakes are good sources of
wind power,” he said.
Students also were eager
to talk about their projects
which included methods used
to detect heat loss in buildings.
Ryan Murtha, a Perrysburg High School senior, held
a thermal imaging camera.
He pointed the unit toward
walls of the building to
demonstrate how it can detect
through cool colors, heat loss
in a structure.
Ryan also explained how
a blower door set up draws
air from a building.
“It creates negative pressure,” he said adding that the
unit detects areas where air is
entering a building.
Anthony Rorigi of Perrysburg High School, a junior in
the geospatial information systems program at Penta,
shows visitors a map of 11 states which indicates the
best places to use solar, wind or geothermal power.
In construction remodeling/carpentry Dave Downey,
a senior from Rossford
Schools, talked about the
importance of having an
energy efficient home. His
group displayed windows
and various types of insulation that should be installed
in every structure.
He also showed how
wood can be recycled, showing how scrap wood can be
recycled to create a support
beam for a house.
Students in HVAC/piping
systems were anxious to
demonstrate a new ductwork
they had studied.
Aaron Hageman, of
Springfield High School,
demonstrated the fire retention capability of cool duct
material.
“Instead of fiberglass or
metal, it’s made of a type of
styrofoam, he said, adding
that the material is manufactured by Delta Air Systems of
Perrysburg.
“It costs about one-third
more [than current ductwork]
but you will regain that in
energy savings,” said class-
mate Tyler Kopp.
In addition to highlighting
the ductwork, the students
also displayed how a geothermal furnace can be installed
for residential usage.
“You can save up to 70
percent on heating and 75
percent on cooling costs,”
said Tyler.
He explained that the system uses coils buried under a
house to heat and cool the
home year round.
He admitted that the unit
is expensive to start up, noting that it would take about
15 years to recoup the cost.
In auto technology, Lee
Kwiatkowski of Springfield
High School, spoke about the
importance of using recycled
motor oil to protect the planet.
The oil is manufactured
by Valvoline. “Valvoline has
no oil wells,” he explained,
noting that the company purchases used oil and recycles
it.
“It’s just like real oil,” he
said, but noted that there is a
cost difference. “It’s a $1 to
$2 difference, because recycled oil costs more to refine,”
he explained.
Exhibits were not limited
to the inside of the career
center. Outside, the automotive program continued its
display with help from area
car dealerships which
brought in energy-efficient
vehicles.
Students clustered around
the vehicles, looking under
the hood, inspecting the
engine and surveying the
design.

Additional plastics can now be recycled curbside
By Judy Hagen
Perrysburg residents
could always recycle #1
and #2 plastics, but they are
a small percentage of the
plastics most people come
in contact with each day.
Beginning Monday,
April 23, #4 through #7
plastics can be recycled
curbside. The only plastics
not accepted are styrofoam
type items and #3 plastics
which include PVC–plumbing pipes, vinyl house siding and garden hose.
The curbside recycling
expansion means that plastic items such as medicine
and vitamin bottles can be
recycled. Residents also
can include deli containers,
take out containers, Tupperware– like items, berry baskets and bulk food containers for curbside recycling.
Bulky rigid/hard plastic
molded items such as kitty
litter buckets, milk crates
and plastic drink cups can
all be recycled curbside.
Even plant pots and plant
trays, (but none of the flimsy “six pack” individual
plant containers) can be
recycled curbside, beginning April 23.
The list is very long of
the new plastic items that
can now be added to curbside plastic recycling.

Cardboard added to curbside recycling beginning April 23
By Judy Hagen
Yes, you are reading
correctly–cardboard is
being accepted in Perrysburg’s curbside recycling.
Since the addition of the
cardboard drop-off recycling at 211 East Boundary,
there has been a doubling
in the amount of cardboard
recycled.
If the addition of another drop-off site resulted in
such great results, what
would option of curbside
cardboard recycling yield?
The city is anticipating
great participation in this
new curbside cardboard
recycling program.
Curbside cardboard collection includes:
•Cardboard that held dry
food like cereal, crackers,
etc.
•Cardboard that held
edible fluids like juice
boxes, milk cartons, etc.
•Cardboard that held
frozen foods like pizza,
vegetables, etc.
•Pizza boxes without
leftover pizza or pizza
crusts–they can even have
grease spots, just no food
debris.
•Cardboard tubes from
paper towels, toilet paper,
wrapping paper, etc.
When recycling cardboard curbside, it must be
flattened and placed in a
paper grocery/paper shopping bag. Do not use plastic
bags for recycling cardboard.
Residents also can place
Yes, cardboard can be recycled curbside beginning April 23.
flattened cardboard in the
12 or 24 pack cardboard
sleeves from cans of soda.
This size restriction is necessary due to the dimensions of the recycling
trucks loading hoppers. If
cardboard is larger than 12
by 18 inches it will not fit
in the hoppers and will get
stuck in the loading
process.
When recycling small
cardboard curbside, pack
the flattened cardboard in a
paper grocery bag or soda
pop sleeve and set it at the
curb. If the cardboard fits
in a paper grocery bag or a
cardboard sleeve from a 12
or 24 pack of soda pop, it
can be recycled curbside.
For larger pieces of
cardboard, take them to one
of the two cardboard dropoff locations–11980 Roachton Road or 211 East
Boundary Street.
The locations are open
Monday through Friday
from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.,
excluding holidays.
Saturday hours are
available the second Saturday of each month at the
East Boundary location
only.
The Perrysburg Township drop-off recycling site
is open on the third Saturday of each month from 8
a.m. to noon at the Perrysburg Township office complex, 26609 Lime City
Road. The township dropoff accepts bottles, cans,
plastics, glass, paper and
cardboard.

Way to screen Red Skelton comedy, ‘The Fuller Brush Man’
Way Library concludes
this season’s Reel Talk classic film series on Thursday,
April 12, with the 1948
Golden Age comedy “The
Fuller Brush Man.”
Red Skelton plays a hapless door-to-door salesman
who becomes a prime suspect when one of his clients
is murdered.
Red and his girl, played
by Janet Blair, have to outwit the murderer and the police until they can prove that
he is innocent.
Joe Espen, long-time
area movie projectionist and
film collector, will be the
special guest speaker.
“The Fuller Brush Man”
starts at 10 a.m. Admission
and refreshments are free.
For more information
call 419-874-3135.
Frank Murphy was the
guest speaker at March’s
Reel Talk which featured the
film, “Heaven Knows Mr.
Allison.”
“This two-character picture of a nun and a stranded
marine (Deborah Kerr and
Robert Mitchum) was unusual for its time,” Mr. Murphy said.
“The late 1950s was a
time of big pictures, like
‘Ben Hur.’
But ‘Allison’ was very
popular, got good reviews
and is still a great film
today.”
Mr. Murphy also told the
audience that the film’s star,
Robert Mitchum, had a
Toledo connection.
“For a time during 1936,
Mitchum worked as a
punch-press operator in a
Toledo factory and frequented a bar on Detroit Avenue and Woodruff called
the Green Light.”

Area students attend Teen Institute retreat
The Wood County Teen
Institute junior and senior
high teens held an evening
retreat on Friday, March 23,
at Rossford High School. The
event was organized through
the Wood County Educational Service Center School
and Community-Based Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drug
Prevention Program, funded
through the Wood County Alcohol, Drug Addiction and
Mental Health Services
Board.
Throughout the evening,
trained high school TI mentors and prevention staff interacted with the junior high
participants overseeing family groups and the creation of
public service announcements.
The PSA activity focused
on healthy alternatives and
lifestyle choices. Some of the
topics of the public service
announcements
included
how to play duck-duckgoose, and how to conduct a
photo scavenger hunt, which
is a popular TI activity. Before the end of the evening,
the teens were invited to vote
for their favorite PSA.
Teen Institute groups
exist to allow students to
teach each other strategies to
be leaders in their schools
and to be a student advocate
Perrysburg students Ali Kopp, left, and Renad Ageel, right,
participated in the JTI retreat.
and role model for a drug, alcohol and tobacco-free
lifestyle.
Junior high TI members
will, in time, continue in the
program, advancing to the
high school TI program,
where they will become leaders within their schools,
teaching the next group of
students.
Teen Institute members
participating in this day rep-
resented 10 different school
districts, including Rossford, North Baltimore,
Bowling Green, Lake, Otsego, Penta, Northwood,
Elmwood, Perrysburg and
Eastwood.
A one-hour parent group
was held during the last hour
of the event, specifically designed to engage parents in
building protective factors in
their youth.

Making Your Vision a Reality
PHS baseball team notches
three more wins in four games
Behind a complete game,
four-hit pitching performance by Nick Munger, the
Yellow Jackets rallied to beat
non-conference foe Eastwood last Wednesday, by a
score of 2-1, at Eastwood
High School.
Trailing 1-0 after five innings, PHS opened the sixth
with singles from Austin Lee
and Hunter Smith. Kyle
Durham advanced both runners with a sacrifice bunt,
and with two outs, Lee
scored on a wild pitch to tie
the game.
Smith then scored on AJ
Stockwell’s single up the
middle to give PHS a 2-1
lead. With two out in the bottom of the sixth and a runner
on second, the Eagles’ cleanup batter hit a sharp single to
center.
Steve Slocum fielded the
ball cleanly and a perfect
one-hop throw to catcher
Durham nailed the runner at
the plate to end the threat.
Stockwell’s two-for-two
at the plate, an RBI and two
stolen bases, along with
Munger’s pitching, led the
Jackets to a great comefrom-behind win. The full
seven innings were played in
just one hour and 25 minutes.
PHS vs. Start
Strong pitching propelled
PHS to its third consecutive
win last Thursday. Junior
Anthony Rorigi took the
mound, throwing a 2-1
shutout at City League favorite Toledo Start.
Rorigi’s three-hit, 12
strikeout outing was his second consecutive gem on the
mound following a big win
the
previous
Saturday
against perennial power Vandalia Butler. Those two wins
surrounded the 2-1 Nick
Munger Victory over Eastwood on Wednesday. During
his three-game stretch,
Jacket pitching has given up
only two runs.
The only Jacket hit managed against Start was a
third inning single by Austin
Lee. Both PHS runs were
unearned.
In the second after walking, AJ Stockwell stole second and third and scored on
a throwing error. Steve
Slocum drew a base on balls
to open the sixth, stole second, was picked off by the
pitcher, but scored the final
run of the game on an errant
throw to third base.
PHS vs. Otsego
Doubleheader
The Yellow Jackets suffered a tough 6-5 loss at the
hands of the Otsego Knights
in the first game of a nonconference double header on
Saturday in Tontogany.
The Jackets took a 5-2
lead into the bottom of the
sixth, thanks to the pitching
of sophomore Mark Delas,
doubles by Austin Lee, AJ
Stockwell and Kyle Durham,
and a two-run shot by
Hunter Smith, his third
homerun of the season.
Delas was relieved by
Lee on the mound after five
innings, after giving up two
runs on four hits.
The Knights came back
with two runs in the sixth
and two in the seventh,
thanks to timely hitting and
a Jacket throwing error that
led to an unearned Otsego
run.
In the nitecap of the twin
bill at Otsego, the Yellow
Jackets, behind AJ Stockwell’s seven strikeout pitching gem, beat the Knights,
11-1, in a run rule game
stopped after six innings.
PHS got off to a fast start
and led 8-1 after three.
Stockwell helped his cause
with two hits and an RBI,
and Hunter Smith added a
double, scored three runs
and stole two bases.
Leading the way at the
plate was Steve Slocum,
with two singles, a double,
two runs scored and four
stolen bases.
Slocum named
Player of the Week
Junior centerfielder Steve
Slocum was selected as
Player of the Week. He was
four for 12 (.333) at the
plate, stole eight bases and
threw a runner out at home,
helping secure the win
against Eastwood.
Corrected Perrysburg Spring Brush Pickup
MONDAY, APRIL 9 – 7:00 A.M.
HOMEOWNER’S BRUSH MUST BE AT THE CURB
PREPARE:
u This year the “out by date” is Monday, April 9, at 7
a.m.
u All brush must be placed at the curb, not in the alley.
u Pile brush with cut ends to the street.
u Do not tie into bundles—stack loosely because brush is
chipped curbside.
u Place small clippings and twigs in garbage cans so they
can be dumped directly into the chipper.
u City crews will take branches, bushes, logs, stumps,
firewood and Christmas trees.
u Crews will begin on the east side of town this year and
work their way west. Once crews have been down your
street, they will not return. A supervisor will check daily to
make sure all brush piles were picked up.
AVOID:
u Brush pick up is not a yard waste or large item pick up.
Please do not place anything but brush to the curb. Information on yard waste or large item pick up is available by calling the Department of Public Service at
419-872-8020, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3:30
p.m. or check the city Web site at www.ci.
perrysburg.oh.us.
u If other items such as ornamental grasses, weeds, sod
or leaves are mixed with the brush pile, everything will
be left and the homeowner will be responsible for removal of all items.
u Metal, stones and other debris may damage equipment
or injure workers.
WOOD CHIPS DELIVERED:
u Wood chips are available to city residents and delivery
is free and available only within City limits. The wood
chips are rough cut—as we chip the brush curbside and
get a full load, we bring it directly to your home and
dump it. Many pieces are big and are used mostly for
fill-in areas. It is not “pretty” to use as a finish to your
landscape. Loads are approximately 12 to 18 cubic
yards. No partial loads are delivered. Call the Depart-

PET OF THE WEEK
Aubrey is a gorgeous young lady who came
to us from a case. She is VERY apprehensive towards people at first and must be
approached slowly. It is best to crouch to
her level when meeting her so she feels
comfortable, and let her come to you. Her
trust has to be earned, but she does come
around, especially when treats are involved!
She knows "sit" and is working on learning
other commands. She walks very well on a
leash and stays right next to her handler. She would be the ideal
dog for someone who is willing to develop a long lasting meaningful relationship with a canine who is in great need of some old
fashioned TLC.

of snow and ice in some regions set the stage for other
spectacles, including more
than two million Snow Geese
reported on two counts at
Squaw Creek National
Wildlife Refuge, Missouri. In
Ruskin, Florida, participants
reported more than one million Tree Swallows, vaulting
this species to the GBBC topten list of the most numerous
birds for the first time ever.
Some northern locations
recorded high numbers of waterbirds such as Mallards,
Ring-necked Ducks, Hooded
Mergansers, and American
Coots, that either never left or
came back early to lakes,
rivers, and ponds that remained unfrozen.
“Citizen scientists are
helping us document changes
to birds, starting in our own
backyards, which is also
said Audubon chief scientist
Gary Langham. “My preschool-age daughter came out
with me to count birds in the
yard and around the neighborhood–we’re still talking
about the experience weeks
later.”
In Perrysburg, a total of 32
species were reported, with
the most popular being the
House Sparrow. The other
most frequently spotted birds
included the Canada Goose,
Mourning Dove, European
Starling, Dark-eyed Junco
and House Finch.
The GBBC is a joint project of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National
Audubon Society with Canadian partner Bird Studies
Canada.
The annual event is sponsored in part by Wild Birds
Unlimited.

“Every
bird
species has a captivating story
to tell, and we’re certainly
seeing many of them in larger
numbers farther north than
usual, no doubt because of
this winter’s record-breaking
mild conditions.”
Ironically, a few arctic
species also moved farther
south than usual as well. Participants recorded Snowy
Owl sightings in recordbreaking numbers throughout
the Great Plains and Pacific
Northwest of the United
States.
Canadian bird watchers
saw four times the number of
Snowy Owls they reported to
the count last year. Experts
believe that Snowy Owls
move south from their usual
arctic habitats in years when
prey, such as lemmings, are
scarce.

recently

year’s Great Backyard Bird
Count.
Bird watchers recorded
the most unusual winter for
birds in the count’s 15-year
history. With 17.4 million
bird observations on 104,000
checklists, this was the most
detailed four-day snapshot
ever recorded for birdlife in
the United States and Canada.
Participants reported 623
species, during February 1720, including an influx of
Snowy Owls from the arctic,
early-migrating
Sandhill
Cranes, and Belted Kingfishers in northern areas that
might normally be frozen
over.
“The maps on the GBBC

Art journaling is a personalized diary that includes
words and illustrations of an
individual’s life events, hobbies, travels and other creative ideas. Historically used
by explorers, captain’s logs,
as well as artists and authors
such as Hemingway, Van
Gogh and Matisse.
During the workshop, presenter David Lymanstall will
discuss how visual illustrations can add to personal or
hobby journals, plus discuss
creative ways to capture your
true passion.
Participants taking the
class should bring an unlined
journal of their choice, a No.
2 pencil, an eraser, and a few
color pencils of their choice if
they wish to work in color,
They should also bring a nice
pen (ex. Pilot) for composing
the written part of a journal
entry.
Mr. Lymanstall has been
keeping an illustrated journal
for many years to record his
observations of the natural
world as well as events of
everyday life. He has taught
middle school science and
often used scientific illustration with students to teach
them to really “see” when
studying objects in botany,

David Lymanstall
geology, and anatomy, believing that by taking the time to
draw an object, you really
learn to see it in all of its complexity. He has been inspired
by a number of contemporary
artists who use this medium
to record events in their day
to day lives as well as what’s
happening in the garden or
the highlights of a recent adventure.
He enjoys working with
graphite and color pencil, but
also likes to experiment with
different techniques and
media to add variety to his
journals.
Mr. Lymanstall has taken
classes locally in drawing,
pen and ink, botanical illustration and ekphrastik writing
at the Toledo Museum of Art.
He has also studied botanical
illustration at the College of
the Atlantic in Bar Harbor,
Maine, and most recently
learned to combine word and
image using woodcut and letterpress at the Oxbow School
of Art in Saugatuck, Michigan.
