Springfield High School juniors, seniors celebrate Prom 2016
With the arrival of spring comes the traditional Prom season. On April 16, several hundred
Springfield HIgh School juniors and seniors celebrated Prom 2016 at the Premier Banquet
Hall in Toledo. The year’s theme, “Frame the Moment,” featured the crowning of the king
and queen–seniors Timothy Franchetti and Alexis Powhida.
Following the dance, students enjoyed After Prom activities at the high school. The theme
“Star Wars” was based on the popular series of film trilogies. Parents and volunteers dec-
Holloway to close May 2
for summer road project
By Beth Church
Area motorists using Holloway Road as a detour
around the McCord railroad
underpass project will need to
find a new route as of Monday, May 2.
Holland Mayor Mike
Yunker said Holloway will be
closed next week at the rail-
Smoke alarms

The American Red Cross
and Springfield Township
Fire Department are offering

smoke alarms in your home?
These are 10-year, sealed
single station units. No need
to change batteries
Qualifications to receive
these free smoke alarms:
•Must be a resident of
Springfield Township/Village of Holland.
•Must be the home owner
living in the home. (not a
rental property)
•The fire department
must install each unit in the
home.

road tracks as construction
work begins on the Front,
Clark and Clarion road/sewer
improvement project.
Last week, village officials
hosted an open house to display plans for the project and
allow residents to ask questions.
At the April 19 Holland
Village Council meeting, the
mayor
said
Springfield
Schools and Springfield
Township Fire Department
have been notified of the closure.
He plans to maintain a lane
for police and fire vehicles to
cross the tracks on Holloway,
as long as motorists don’t attempt to cut through the construction zone.
Work will be completed in
two phases: phase one covers
the area from the railroad
tracks to the driveway of the
village hall to be completed
by mid-June, and phase two
from the village hall to the
driveway of the American Legion post on Clarion to be finished in August.
Workers will be on-site
from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, with Saturday a make-up day if it
rains.
The schedule will allow
the Strawberry Festival parade
to take place as usual, the
mayor noted.
The parade on Sunday,
June 19, will occur just as
phase one is completed and
phase two has yet to begin.
“It can go on as scheduled
with no route change,”
he added.
The mayor said the viewing area from residents’ yards
may be impacted, though, and
those areas will be blocked off
with barricades.
The area will be accessible
to the 20-some residences affected by the project, as well
as two businesses: Fire Nation
and the Holland-SpringfieldSpencer Historical Society.
“Residents are encouraged
to find alternate parking areas
during construction,” Mayor
Yunker said, adding the parking lots on both sides of the
village hall are available.
The only time residents
will not have vehicular access
is when the concrete is
poured, which takes seven
days to cure.
Any handicapped residents
or those with home medical
treatments should contact the
on-site engineer who will help
to arrange for admittance as
needed.
Council decided to cancel
the Community Garage Sale
days on May 12 to 14, because of traffic difficulties,
and rescheduled it for September 15 to 17.
Mayor Yunker said the unlimited pickup during the
week of May 16 will take
place as planned.
“Our maintenance crew
can work around that road
work,” he explained.
Village council’s next
meeting will be at 7:30 p.m.,
Tuesday, May 3, in council
chambers, 1245 Clarion Avenue and is open to the public.

Fire chief addresses drug abuse issue
New signage planned for fire stations
Springfield Township’s
three fire stations are about to
be electrified outdoors.
At the April 18 meeting,
the trustees approved LED replacement signage for each
station. The double face, internally illuminated signs are
being purchased for $20,000
each from National Illumination and Sign Corporation of
Holland.
Fire Chief Barry Cousino
said the current signs are 20
years old and “in need of serious repair.”
He noted that a worker was
injured recently while replacing the lettering in one of the
signs.
“I think it’s best if we do all
three,” he said, adding that the
company has included a 5 percent discount on the purchase.
The firm also recommended purchasing the signs
at the same time since technology could change, making it
challenging electronically to
program them.
The chief said the current
bases can be used at each station: No. 1, 802 South McCord Road; No. 2, 1534 South
Crissey Road, and No. 3, Garden and Holloway roads.
Drug Addiction
Chief Cousino addressed
the issue of drug abuse in the
community and DART (Drug
Abuse Response Team).
DART is an innovative program established by the sheriff’s office in partnership with
the Ohio attorney general,
Lucas County prosecutor’s office, Mental Health and Recovery Services board and
others.
“Law enforcement officers
are dispatched directly to hospitals to work with people who
have overdosed and their families to guide them to addiction
resources for housing and
long-term recovery,” the chief
explained.
“The goal is to divert these
individuals from the criminal
justice system into appropriate
treatment.”
Chief Cousino said drug
abuse is epidemic in the region, noting that at their peak
last year, the department responded to four to six overdoses each week.

A 15-year-old youth was
arrested following an altercation at Springfield High

before being transported to
the Lucas County Juvenile

“Now it is one to two a
week. It is a significant problem. I can attest to that in this
township.”
The trustees asked if there
was a significant group abusing heroin.
Chief Cousino said overdoses come from all demographics–upper and lower
economic classes, all age
groups and employed/unemployed.
“A lot of them are 20 to
40 years old, and many got
started with prescription pain
killers. And when they can’t
get them anymore, they turn
to heroin as an inexpensive
alternative. It’s scary.”
And he noted how quickly
victims can overdose. “You’d
be surprised at the percentage that still have the needle
in their arm when we arrive.”
Administrator
Leslie
Kohli reminded the trustees
that the Holland-Springfield
Chamber of Commerce will
host a symposium on the
problem at noon, Thursday,
May 19, at Stone Oak Country Club.

of SHS junior, senior Prom 2016
Surrounded by McDonald’s management and members of the Prom/After Prom committee,
SHS Principal Rhonda Jemison, center, accepts a check for $1,000 from the Airport Highway restaurant. The funds went toward the high school’s Prom and After Prom.
McDonald’s donates funds to SHS Prom/After Prom
Springfield students attending this year’s Prom and
After Prom on April 16 enjoyed the festivities due in
part to contributions from
area businesses including
McDonald’s.
On April 15, management
from the restaurant at 6555
Airport Highway presented
members of the junior class
and Prom committee with a
check for $1,000.
Emily Lenart, junior class
president, expressed her appreciation on behalf of the
class that is responsible for
organizing the Prom.
“We are very, very thankful to McDonalds,” she said.
Emily credited class of
2017 advisors Jeannine Petcoff and Dorianne Cox who
contacted the restaurant
about a potential fund-raiser.
“We did fund-raisers at
the restaurant on March 15
and 22 with a percentage of
purchases going toward
Prom,” Emily explained.
Ms. Petcoff said the fundraiser was one of many organized by the junior class
over the past three years to
offset the cost for Prom.
Other fund-raisers included
a $1 pie in a teacher’s face,
candy bar sales and powder
puff football.
The goal of the fund-raisers is to reduce the cost for
students to attend Prom, she
said.
Ms. Petcoff, who hopes to
work with McDonald’s on
future fund-raisers, was excited about the amount
raised.
“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for this donation,” she said.

Musical Melodies
at Holloway
The halls were alive with
the sound of music– no, that’s
not a typo, just a little play on
the classic, beloved Julie Andrews film.
Holloway
Elementary
School’s first grade and second grade students recently
hosted guests at their spring
evening concerts. The programs were prepared by and
directed by Kelly Barkhimer,
Holloway’s music teacher.
Family members and
friends filled the gym to listen
to the students’ performances.
The evening event was split in
to two performances. First
graders performed earlier in
the evening followed by the
second grade concert an hour
later.
One of the highlights was
the parent participation song
were several guests were invited up to the stage to be part
of the “One Bottle of Pop”
song.
Many music concepts can
be taught while performing,
and it is great developmental
step to present in front of an
audience. Some of the basic
concepts covered in music are:
beat, rhythm (long and short
sounds), pitch (note name
recognition), harmony, expressive elements (tempo and dynamics), breath control, form,
music history, following a conductor, playing and singing in
a group and playing alone.
A special thanks to Mr.
Barile, a parent of Holloway,
who donated the use of the
sound equipment to make the
productions a hit. Congratulations to all of our student performers for a great job on
their spring musical concert.

Superintendent of Springfield Schools
Springfield Pride …
Pass It On!
It was almost one year
ago that I used this space to
share my thoughts with the
greater Holland-Springfield
community, all 27,857 of us,
on all that we have to be
proud of and grateful for. In
that message, I offered my
impressions as a resident of
this community–rich in traditions and blessed with a
wonderful blend of citizens
from various cultural, ethnic,
and religious backgrounds.
Collectively we have built a
community that is a gem in
northwest Ohio. In many respects, we have created a
model for others to emulate.
Springfield pride, or
#springfieldstrong as I refer
to in most of my messages, is
an emotion difficult to explain. For those who have
experienced it, though, there
is no better feeling. The centerpiece of that pride, as it is
in most places, is the quality
of our schools. Our schools
have excelled in recent years
thanks to the collective efforts of our faculty and staff,
parents, and the
partnerships we’ve created to provide children with an
exceptional educational experience.
Today, 11 months later
and thanks to both stellar
community support and passage of an emergency levy
The Ohio Department of
Agriculture has issued a stopsale order for propane deliveries from propane trucks
owned and operated by
Thrifty Propane. The order
prohibits the use of any and all
Thrifty
Propane
trucks
throughout Ohio for commercial (sales or delivery) purposes unless approved by the
department.
Following up on complaints that Thrifty Propane
overcharged customers for the
quantity of propane actually
sold and that the company was

are highly competitive, and
we look forward to a strong
showing by all of them.”
The championship games
encompass 20 men’s and
women’s teams from around
the nation, including other
Great Lakes Curling Association teams from arenabased clubs in Lansing,
Cincinnati, and Indianapolis.
Tournament selection is
made based on application
and lottery.
This event was initiated
four years ago, in recognition that the ice in arenabased clubs poses more
challenges than dedicated
club ice, and the majority of
club growth in the U. S. is
occurring on arena ice.
“Arena” ice is shared between hockey, skating and
curling.
“We have a very supportive and encouraging club,
and new members are always
welcome,” Ms. Orr said.
“We hope more folks will
come and try one of our
learn-to-curl.”
Mr. Smith, a financial
consultant and business
owner has curled with the
BGCC for six seasons.
He first learned about the
sport during the Olympic
games. “I was a former college athlete, and I missed the
all-day basketball games and
things that athletes do when
they are together,” he said.
“Bowling and softball
weren’t doing it for me so I
announced to several friends
one day that I was going to

do this. Six years later, I still
am,” he added.
Curling dates to the 16th
century and is one of the
fastest growing sports in the
country, in part for its accessibility to curlers of all ages
and physical abilities.
A sport of precision, curling is sometimes referred to
as “chess on ice,” and requires a combination of strategy, finesse, teamwork and
camaraderie. Teams must
deliver each 40-pound curling stone across more than
100 feet of ice and assure it
comes to rest in a specific location. Mere inches can
make the difference between
loss and success.
“Curling is a great sport,”
said Ms. Orr. “It’s easy to
learn, but challenging to
master.”
She noted that curlers
enjoy the “thrill of throwing
a great rock or hearing your
rock crash into another one
and knock it out of play.”
Mr. Smith agreed, adding
that curling is a sport for
people of all ages. “Anyone
who has ever been to a tournament in Canada knows
that is the case. There are
some incredible athletes who
curl.”
He continued, “ I find it a
great
combination
of
strength, endurance, strategy
and patience. It’s a sport
where teammates can really
pick each other up and where
if you have a bad shot, you
can make up for it.”
He encourages area resi-
dent to learn more about the
sport. “If you have any athletic inclination whatsoever,
you should give curling a try.
You may surprise yourself.”
Traveling with Mr. Smith
to West Chester are Jay
Clark of Saline, Michigan,
and Scott Piroth and
Cameron Roehl of Bowling
Green.
Women’s team members
going to national are Jen
Henkel of Perrysburg; Beth
Landers of Bowling Green;
Angie Jones of Sylvania, and
Elizabeth Spencer of Toledo,
Alternate Jennifer Williams
of Norwalk rounds out the
women’s team.
Formed in 1968, the
Bowling Green Curling Club
has since played continuously at the Bowling Green
State University Ice Arena.
This fall, they are moving
to a dedicated ice facility to
accommodate growing interest, and will have the full accessibility to allow for
offering wheelchair curling.

Junior Achievement
Each year we are fortunate to have community volunteers participate in a
program
called
Junior
Achievement. Two of these
community volunteers are
Tracy Momany and Daniel
Applegate, from Plastic
Technologies Inc. in Holland.
They led the Junior
Achievement lessons in
Melissa Zaciewski’s third
grade classroom. These lessons support the economic
standards and skills that our
students need to learn.
In “Junior Achievement:
Our City,” our Junior
Achievement volunteers introduce students to the characteristics of cities and how
cities are shaped by zoning.
Students also learn about the
importance of money to a
city; how financial institutions help businesses and
city residents, and how the
media is an integral part of a
city’s life.
Through this program,
students also learn the role
of an entrepreneur by exploring what it takes to open a
restaurant.
This program indicates
the value of having community members participate in
the education of the community’s young people.
We are thankful to Tracy
Momany and Daniel Applegate and all of our other Junior Achievement volunteers
for their continued commitment to the Dorr Elementary

Dilyn Good, a Springfield
High School graduate and
sophomore forward on the
Owens Community College
men’s basketball team, has
signed with Walsh University
to continue his academic and
athletic career.
“I am extremely excited for
Dilyn to get the opportunity to
play at the NCAA Division II
level on a full scholarship,” said
Owens men’s basketball coach
Dave Clarke.
“He came to Owens as a
freshman who got limited minutes and developed into a major
contributor this past year. Our
goal at Owens is to move players on, and Dilyn is a perfect
example of that.”
As a 6’9 sophomore, Good
averaged 8.6 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game
while starting 25 of 30 games.
The son of Carla Good, he
was the team’s lone returning
sophomore this season.
He shot 44.7 percent from
the field and 40.4 percent from
three-point range.
Overall, Good produced
double digits 10 times as a
sophomore, including five
times in the final nine games.
He had a season-high 25 points
against Clark State February
20.

The Chamber Partnership, of which the Holland
Springfield Chamber of
Commerce is aligned, will
host a “Help with Heroin”
symposium at 11:30 a.m.,
Thursday, May 19, at Stone
Oak Country Club in Holland.
Open to all businesses,
the luncheon meeting will
cost $12 per person.
Reservations are required
and may be made by calling
Abbey Hall at 419-8772747 or by visiting the website at www.thechamber
partnership.com.
Josh Torres, president and
CEO of the partnership, believes it is important for
business leaders to be aware
of the heroin issue.
“Most heroin addicts are
people with jobs–accountants, lawyers, construction
workers, nurses and secretaries. In other words, they
are people who go to work
every day. Businesses need
to be educated about what
can be done for those who
may be an addict. The
Chamber Partnership, by
working together with the
Heroin Alliance, can strategize and develop resources
for our members, and the
business community and this
symposium will unveil those
resources for local businesses.”

Zara Amin among NDA students
participating in visual arts exhibit
Zara Amin, of Holland,
was one of seven Notre
Dame Academy’s (NDA) International Baccalaureate
(IB) World School art students who displayed their
artwork at the NDA 2016 IB
Visual Arts Exhibition.
All seven students were
members of the IB program.
“This year the IB students
curriculum and exhibition
assessment has changed
from our previous students,”
Mrs. Susan Kozal, NDA art
chair said.
“The change in curriculum put more emphasis on
curatorial choices and planning leading us to work more
extensively with Toledo Museum of Art Curator Larry
Nichols. The girls were honored with Mr. Nichols presenting both at NDA and a
privately led tour and lecture
at the museum that enabled
them with curatorial career
insight and led to crisp and
professional exhibition.”
A full-diploma student in
the IB Program, senior Zara
Amin’s show was called
“Creativity: The Rose in the
Garden of Humanity.
“I named my exhibit this
to show the idea of growth,”
Zara said. “It is about how
creativity is the most important mankind invention because we all use it to grow.”
She will study chemical
engineering at Ohio State
University this coming fall
and will participate in the art
scholars program.
Zara’s favorite medium to
work in is charcoal and
graphite, but she would love
to work more with chalk and
chalk pastels.
“I want to be able to create large temporary works of
art,” she said.
Other students participating in the Visual Arts Exhibition were: Crystal Du,

The Crissey staff celebrates Autism Awareness.
By Oatis Amick, principal
Spring Arts Show
We’re all aware that the
core subjects (math, reading,
science and language arts)
are very important for a
child’s education.
While schools certainly
focus on these subjects, it is
important that we also include and celebrate the value
of fine arts education (art
and music).
The arts allow students to
develop knowledge and
skills that enhance “core”
learning, stretch their imaginations and sometimes even
enjoy the fun of coloring
outside the lines.
Each week, Crissey Elementary School students
enjoy expressing themselves
with Ms. Middleton and Ms.
Cook. Students participate in
their music classes twice a
week with Ms. Middleton.
They enjoy singing and
learning to play a variety of
instruments.
Once each week, our students also have the opportunity to create their own
masterpieces and learn about
different art techniques
thanks to Ms. Cook’s art
classes.
Just last week, we hosted
the Crissey Spring Arts
Show. Student artists in
kindergarten and grades 1
and 2 enjoyed showing off
their creative art work,
which we displayed in the
hallways.
It was wonderful to see
their amazing creativity. The
students entertained their
guests with musical performances from the stage in the
Crissey gymnasium.
Special thanks to the students and to Ms. Middleton
and Mrs. Cook for the work
they put into creating our
Spring Arts Show.
Also, I would like to
thank our fantastic parents
for donating refreshments
for the show.
Lion in the Spotlight
It is important to us that
you know our school family.
Each week, we will highlight
a staff member at Crissey Elementary.
This week it is Mrs. Bork.
