Holidays at the Manor House delights
visitors with whimsical decorations
Above normal temperatures may make it still seem like
fall, but Christmas is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate the holidays than a with a visit to the
Wildwood Preserve Metropark’s Manor House?
Holidays at the Manor House, a Christmas tradition for
40 years, is open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., through December 13, and admission is free.
In the weeks leading up to the event, volunteers decorated every part of the 38-room mansion. This year’s decorations feature whimsical rooms that are sure to delight the
young and the young at heart.
Above left, the master bathroom has been redone for a
“Splish, Splash Frozen in the Bath.” Decorated by Deanne
Douglas and Sandie, Kelly and Susie Miller, the room is
sure to be a favorite of children.
Above right, “Dr. Seuss at Christmas” features all things
Seussical. Decorated by the Bay View Yacht Club, the library has been transformed with every imaginable creature
from the author’s books, complete with Cindy Lou Who
perched atop a piano.
In addition to touring the home, visitors can enjoy
s’mores at the Andersons welcome tent and take carriage
rides through the park for a fee of $6. Again this year, donations are being accepted for the Mitten Tree at the lower
level of the mansion. Hats, scarves and gloves collected
will be donated to local children in need. The Mitten Tree is
an annual project of Volunteers In Parks.
The 30,000-square-foot home is the former estate of
Robert Stranahan, co-owner of the Champion Spark Plug
Company, now owned by the Toledo Metroparks.
Banquets cap memorable Springfield fall sports season

season of sports after passing

them to continue, Springfield
teams looked back fondly on

complishments in 2015.
The boys and girls soccer
and cross country teams
along with boys golf, girls
tennis and volleyball tallied
15 All-Northern
Lakes
League honorees. Every team
featured at least one All-NLL
finisher.
Of those, Head Coach
McKenna Reitz’s volleyball
group again fielded at the top
in terms of team and individual honors.
Despite beginning the year
with more questions than answers, Reitz’s girls molded
together quicker than expected, helping make up for
the departure of two of the
program’s best players in her
tenure.
They returned to the mantle as one of the NLL’s frontrunners. The Lady Devils
scored victories over all but
Bowling Green in league
play, finishing with a 9-5
mark and 15-9 overall, bowing out to Perrysburg in a
very close, five-set district
semifinal match.
Leading the way for the
Lady Devils was junior outside hitter Allie Hale who
added to her already impressive career with first team
honors in both the NLL and
the district. Seniors Ebony
McKenzie (middle blocker)
and Amanda Poole (libero)
earned honorable mention alldistrict and second and third
team All-NLL, respectively.
Poole added senior all-academic honors to her resume as
well, as did classmates
Rachel Burns and Kate
Schroeder.
Girls tennis also finished
with one of its best seasons
under Head Coach Gina Ciminillo, notching the 10
match wins she sought as a
barometer of success and featuring one of the area’s best
new players. Freshman
Kyleigh Henthorn was an
easy choice for first team AllNLL as she dominated opponents from her first singles
spot all year. Her play earned
her second team all-district
honors.
Ciminillo’s first doubles
team of senior Silvia Caniglia
and junior Sulli Sanders were
keystones to the team’s success as well. Both made honorable mention all-district
with Sanders taking second
team and Caniglia third team
All-NLL. Caniglia, along
with Hannah Jewell, Brooke
Pelton, Lily Taplin and
Alyssa Bailey all garnered
senior all-academic awards.
Boys soccer experienced
an expected dip in on-field results following the graduation
of an entire lineup’s worth of
seniors from one of the program’s best seasons last year.
Still, Head Coach Andrew
Screptock’s squad managed
to secure a 6-1 state playoff
win over Whitmer before losing to Southview in the sectional final.
While the team results
were less than what Screptock hoped, he still saw
strong individual performances from Brian Bethel (first
team All-NLL; all-district),
Justin Sekerak (second team
All-NLL; honorable mention
all-district), Austin Siefert
(third team All-NLL; honorable mention all-district; senior all-academic) and Justin
Briggs (honorable mention
all-district).
The Lady Devils soccer
team – also a young group –
experienced similar uphill
battles throughout their fivewin campaign but were never
blown out, except for a pair of
early season hiccups. That
was largely thanks to a defensive effort led by junior goalkeeper Erica Myers who
finished second team AllNLL and all-district.
Abby Siefert nabbed the
top honors as the team’s lone
first team representative on
both the league and district
teams. Samantha Huber
joined Myers as a second
team honoree on both squads.
Courtney Nowaczyk was a
senior all-academic honoree
for first year Head Coach
Sean Abel.

varsity golf squad, Seth

Village residents sought
for new tax review board
Please Recycle This Newspaper
$25.00 per year
A new tax review board
must be appointed for the Village of Holland to comply
with the state’s new income
tax regulations.
At the December 1 meeting of Holland Village Council, Mayor Mike Yunker
announced that he is searching for three volunteers to
serve.
The mayor will appoint
one member and council will
appoint two.
Terri Dugan, village tax
commissioner, is assisting
him in the search for interested residents.
They may not be village
employees or elected officials.
The board will be responsible for reviewing any tax
challenges from taxpayers.
“I don’t expect it to have a
whole lot of activity,” the
mayor added.
Lyn Krasula, village
clerk/treasurer, said there
have only been two challenges in the past 12 years.
New state laws will go into
effect January 1, 2016, based
on Chapter 718 of the Ohio
Revised Code, as established
by Senate Bill 5. They include
major changes in municipal
income tax collection.
The mayor said council
will need to vote on the committee appointments at its December 15 meeting.
Other Business
In other business, council:
•Approved the 2016 village budget and wage schedule, which includes a 2
percent pay increase for village employees.
•Heard
from
Mayor
Yunker that a plan to patch
pavement cracks with slurry
seal did not take place this
fall, and so $12,000 to
$14,000 of work will need to
be done in the spring.
•Approved a $1,000 contract with Workplace Resources
for
employee
assistance and counseling
programs.
•Authorized the payment
of $14,498 in bills.
Council’s next meeting is
at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, December 15, at the village hall,
1245 Clarion Avenue, and is
open to the public. The meeting will be preceded by a
Christmas potluck gathering
at 7 p.m.
Council also changed its
meeting schedule for January.
Meetings will take place on
Tuesdays, January 12 and 26.

The optimism shared by
first-year Springfield Head
Coach Keith McClure about
his Lady Devils basketball
team hardly looks misplaced
through the early weeks of
this season.
His team has come out of
the gate firing and winning
three of their first four contests and both Northern Lakes
League tilts. All three victories have come by double-figures.
They opened the season
with a 58-32 trouncing of
Southview. Junior Erica
Myers led the charge with 14
points–12 in the second
half–and senior Jewel Rollins
chipped in 10. Nine players
found themselves on the
score sheet in the opener.
Myers and Rollins again
led the way in the team’s 5437 win at Swanton on November 30. The two
combined to tally as many
points as their opponent, with
Myers reining in four treys as
part of her 24-point effort.
Rollins drained a pair from
deep as well and finished with
13 points.
While the Lady Devils
struggled from the foul line in
their second win, they more
than made up for it beyond
the arc with seven threepointers.
Except for a mildly lowscoring second quarter, the
quick turnaround against
Bowling Green the following
night did little to hamper
Springfield. The Lady Devils
outscored the Lady Bobcats
in each quarter en route to a
49-35 win.
This time the scoring roles
were reversed as Rollins led
the way with an impressive
22-point performance while
Myers chipped in 12 of her
own. They also improved dramatically from the free throw
line, converting 13 of 18 from
the charity stripe after shooting less than 50 percent (716) a night earlier.
Those victories sandwich
their only hiccup thus far.
That came in their November

27 game at Clay, when fouls
and turnovers piled up to turn
a 10-2 lead midway through
the first quarter into an unsightly 56-38 defeat. Myers
scored 13 and Rollins 10 in
the loss.
McClure noted that in the
loss things went from bad to
worse quickly and his team
could not flip the switch back.
Remarkably, the Lady Devils
only trailed by three at halftime despite an eye-popping
18 turnovers through 16 minutes. They finished the game
with 27 giveaways.
“I think the girls started
trying too hard on a couple
plays, trying to bring back the
team on their own,” McClure
said. “Then we just started
snowballing–they got a basket, we didn’t get a basket,
and the girls sort of dropped
their heads.
“It’s a good learning lesson. We started out in the first
half and showed that we can
play them. But we have to put
it all together.”
Despite the ugliness of the
loss, McClure was glad for
the challenge early and hopes
that when they face adversity

#springfieldstrong
I’m going to deviate from
the usual #springfieldstrong
format this week to offer long
overdue recognition and
thanks to Keiran Menacher.
Mrs. Menacher is retiring
from service to the Springfield Board of Education at
the end of this month after
serving on behalf of the community for more than 21
years.
Creating the capacity for a
school district to excel is not
done by accident. It takes the
deliberate and intentional efforts of a governing board
who has a unity of purpose
focused on students.
Springfield school board
members invest unseen and
immeasurable hours in their
quest to become skilled interpreters of school law, experts at board policy
development and vigilant
overseers of scarce resources. What’s more, and
especially unique to Springfield, being a member of a
board of education requires
five very different individuals to function as part of a
united team! I say unique because Springfield’s board
members model for others
how professional, caring
adults can work together for
the betterment of a school
district and community.
Some may say being a board
member is thankless–yet, our
board members will tell you
that they receive their thanks
in a variety of meaningful
ways–and most especially
through accomplishments of
tens of thousands of students
who have received a worldclass education from Springfield’s schools.
For more than 21 years,
Keiran Menacher has been
deliberate and intentional in
her leadership. Mrs. Menacher has offered her vision
and perspective through work
on district and state-level
committees and with col-
leagues serving on other
boards. She has helped create
within the district a strong
management structure that
provides both the personal
and financial accountability
that taxpayers demand and
students deserve. Above all,
she is (and I am sure will remain) an outspoken advocate
for public education. As she
retires on December 31 from
service to the community, it is
important to reflect on her career and accomplishments.
Keiran Menacher has
served this community well.
Her hard work and accomplishments have gained her
numerous awards, including
selection to the All Ohio
School Board. This honor followed her receipt in 2007 of
the prestigious Ohio School
Boards Association Award of
Achievement. Mrs. Menacher
also has received numerous
regional and state awards and
recognition for her contributions to the district and education.
While we wish her Godspeed in future endeavors–
her presence and service will
surely be missed in countless
ways.

we were
meant

Lori Mitchell, a professor
at the University of Toledo
and owner of Great Lakes
Marketing Research, joined
the Sylvania Chamber of
Commerce for the monthly
luncheon to elaborate on current marketing strategies and
what makes companies successful–or not–in that department.
Ms. Mitchell holds a doctorate in strategic marketing
as well as minors in statistics
and international business,
both of which lend themselves to her daily work.
“My perspective is that I
look at everything through
the lens of transactions,” she
said. “For me, it’s the coloration of a series of interactions
that
are
either
successful or not successful.”
She acquired her outlook
on the field of marketing
through her educational and
professional experience. As

a better product or service
but to present the best solution. However, Ms. Mitchell
argued that too often businesses overlook the rather
obvious part of why a solution is necessary.
“It’s all these solutions,”
she said, “but my concern is,
are you listening to your customer to know what the
problem is so that you actually frame a solution in terms
of what their problem is?”
She segued that into discussing what businesses need
to identify as most important
to their customers in today’s
market. In that regard, many
of the traditional measure-
you have to compete with
everybody.

One, and there can be no

generations changed, so have
marketing strategies.
“Marketing first was always the product. It was always
like
a
better
mousetrap,”
said
Ms.
Mitchell. “So if you can
make it, you were supposed
to make it better than anybody else. But I’m sure
you’ve heard people say
‘well, you only need a better
mousetrap if you’ve got a
smarter mouse.’ That pretty
much wore out as the way to
solve problems.”
That, she said, evolved
into the idea that permeates
across many businesses and
industries to not merely have
ings conveyed are what all
businesses should seek to
create.
“Remember when ebay
first came out [with the slogan] to ‘Shop victoriously;?”
she said. “It wasn’t about the
widget you bought; it was
that you beat somebody else
and you got the better price.
I mean, it doesn’t matter
what it is that you got. But
you were victorious because
you were successful. And
that’s the thing; it changes
you when you become successful.”
She also explained how
much more difficult marketing is today in the age of
what she called “perfect information.” The Internet and
emergence of the global market created more competition
than could be imagined just
20 years ago.
A solution to that, Ms.
Mitchell contended, is not to
take the copious amount of
competitors head-on but reduce the number of challengers to one’s particular
business.
“If I’m going online and
I’m checking everything out
and I’m making all these
comparisons, you have to reduce competition,” she said.
“You cannot take on the role
as your competitor because
all you’ve done is give people more things to compare
you to. And hey, you might
be great but at one point
you’re going to lose when
ments of success like customer satisfaction surveys
and ratings–practices of her
company–may no longer be
suitable.
“I’m at the point where I
don’t believe satisfaction is
enough,” Ms. Mitchell explained. “The thing with satisfaction is that when you get
your surveys, they ask you to
rate how nice was our personnel at the desk, how nice
was the person who did this,
how timely was the delivery.
You know what’s really happening is they told you that
you’re supposed to measure
your experience by the personnel, the timeliness and
they’re setting you up. What
if that doesn’t matter to you?
“I don’t think that’s going
to work anymore,” she continued. “I think to be successful, we have to go as
businesses to the next step.
We don’t get to decide what
you call successful. I think
that today, how satisfied you
are with the change in yourself after you had a transaction with me, that’s what gets
you going. That’s where I
need to be if I’m going to be
the business or the partner
that you want.”
Ms. Mitchell said the
early days of ebay proved a
great example of how a business can create enthusiastic
customers. While their particular business and slogan at
the time matched perfectly,
she argued that the core feel-

Toledo Area Humane Society’s
PET OF THE WEEK
EEK
Eek is a five month
brown brindle boxer
mix. He has been at the
Toledo Area Humane
Society since November 5. Eek is quite the
playful little guy. He
loves to play with toys
and run around with
people. Eek also is a
very sweet and affectionate puppy. If you’re looking for a cuddle buddy, Eek is
your guy.
Because Eek is just a young guy, he will need someone
who wants to spend time continuing his training and teaching him new tricks–but he is very smart and a quick learner.
Eek likes to play with other dogs but can get a little scared
by big, pushy dogs. He doesn’t seem too interested in cats,
so a feline free home would probably be best for this little
guy.
Eek has been neutered, given a health exam by a licensed
vet, is current on his vaccinations and has been microchipped.
For more information, visit the Toledo Area Humane Society,
827 Illinois Avenue, Maumee or call 419-891-0705.
All adoptable animals can be viewed by visiting the website

Springfield High School News
WCW to meet
December 11
Toledo Craftsman’s Guild
Winter Festival of Crafts
Rotary Students of the Month Jordan Dascani, left, and Dallas Giesige, right, with Springfield Local Schools Superintendent Michael O’Shea.
By Rhonda Jemison,
principal
Seniors Jordan Dascani
and Dallas Giesige
Honored by Rotary
On November 20, members of the Holland Springfield Rotary Club honored
Jordan Dascani and Dallas
Giesige as their November
Students of the Month. For
those not familiar, the club
identifies and honors each
month two students whose
actions most resemble the
club’s motto of, “Service
above Self!”
Again this month, I am
using this column to detail
for readers the attributes of
the students who are identified to help our community
members learn a little more
about SHS students and all
that they do for our school,
their neighbors and the community as a whole.
It is my pleasure to introduce you first to Jordan Dascani. Jordan is the daughter
of Cindy and Bryan Dascani
or Toledo. Jordan is ranked
sixth of 277 and recently
made her choice to pursue a
degree
in
exercise
science/pre-physical therapy
while running cross country
and track at Baldwin Wallace
University.
Jordan is an exceptional
student and is an officer of
our National Honor Society.
She also is a past state finalist
in the Laws of Life Essay
Contest. She is a gifted athlete who has participated in
cross country, track, softball
and swimming. Above all
else, it is her service to others
that sets her apart.
She is a leader of our nationally recognized Students
In Action and was recently
appointed to the national Jefferson Awards Foundation’s
Think Big team.
She helped coordinate the
Jim Schall Memorial Blood
Drive last summer and plans
to continue her efforts in college through Baldwin Wallace’s Jacket In Action
program.
During her comments,
Jordan singled out two teachers–Steve Wetz and Susan
Muller–for inspiring her in
the classroom. She also mentioned fellow student Tim
Franchetti for inspiring her
each day to bring happiness
to others.
Dallas Giesige is the son
of Norman and Teresa
Giesige of Holland. His class
rank is 11/277 and his plans
after high school include the
pursuit of a psychology/criminology degree from either
Miami University (Ohio) or
Bowling Green State University.
Dallas is leaving his mark
on SHS. He also is an exceptional student and athlete. He
is the holder of numerous
school cross country records
and runs both indoor and out-
door track. He serves as a
mentor for a children’s
church school and has volunteered to brighten the holidays for those in need.
When asked his most
memorable moment at SHS,
Dallas was quick to reply that
it was the opportunity he
took to address the Springfield Township Trustees during
last
year’s
levy
campaign. He seized the opportunity to articulate for his
classmates what failure of the
levy would do to our
school–it was both a spontaneous and very proud moment that he will long
remember.
Dallas, too, identified two
individuals who inspire
him–SHS teacher McKenna
Reitz and his father. Both
played key roles in as he
chose his future career path.
Jordan and Dallas are excellent examples of #springfieldstrong.
We congratulate them and
their parents on the receipt of
this honor.
The juried members of the
Toledo Craftsman’s Guild are
pleased to announce its annual Winter Festival of Crafts
show. The setting of the Franciscan Center on the campus
of Lourdes College on Convent Boulevard in Sylvania,
will be the host for this annual
event. The show will take
place on Sunday, December
13, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This show is the last show of
the Craftsman’s Guild’s yearlong 40th anniversary celebration.
This show may feature
jewelry, pottery, woodworking, fragrances and lotions,
fabric, soft sculpture, decorative painting, photography,
and more. There will be a selection of holiday wreaths and
seasonal decorations. In addition, many members of the
Toledo Craftsman Guild will
fill special orders.
This one day show will be
the last chance to buy a hand
crafted item at a Toledo
Craftsman’s Guild show this
year.
Admission and parking are
free.
