VOLUME 163, NUMBER 27 – JULY 8, 2015
Condition of Perrysburg Twp. office
facilities called into question
By Jane Maiolo
It has been a dozen years
since the trustees first
addressed issues with Perrysburg Township facilities,
including the office/township hall building, but problems at that structure persist.
At the July 1 trustees
meeting, Fiscal Officer
Shirley Haar brought the
issue to the forefront after
heavy rain the last weekend
in June resulted in flooding.
“We’ve talked about this
for years. We need to stop
talking and do something,”
she said, adding that paperwork had gotten wet.
Mrs. Haar noted that it
took
a
maintenance
employee more than four
hours to dry out the carpet.
“It was soaking wet.”
The walls also are blistering, and the drywall is
softened in areas where the
water poured in, she said.
Trustee Gary Britten
said, “I agree with Shirley.
We’ve got to fix this.”
Trustee Bob Mack
agreed but questioned
whether the building could
be rehabilitated, noting that
the building has “great bone
structure.”
Mr. Britten suggested a
temporary fix by moving
offices to the front of the
building, which has fewer
issues.
“I see a lot of possibilities here,” Mr. Mack added.
Trustees Barb Gunn,
Nathan Hagemeister and Mr.
Mack first addressed the
issue in 2003 during a discussion on current and
future building needs and
the age of facilities.
Then zoning inspector
Grant Garn advised the
trustees to look into how
viable the office/fire building was. “This building is
47 years old, and the life
expectancy is about 50
years,” he said.
Two years later in 2005,
trustees Mrs. Gunn, Mr.
Mack and Craig LaHote
formed a committee of residents to consider options for
the township’s aging structures.
Administrator
John
Hrosko, now retired, had
expressed concern that
improving the current building for another 20 years
could prove cost prohibitive.
At that time, the
office/fire building had a
leaky roof, old boiler system, deteriorating parking
lot and recurring problems
with drainage.
In April 2007, the current
board of trustees received
the results of a study on the
condition of facilities by
Cousino Construction.
Mike Cousino indicated
there were issues with ventilation and suspected mold in
the office building, but said
more tests needed to be
done to confirm its presence.
If mold is discovered, he
advised the problem be corrected “immediately.”
Several months later, the
trustees moved forward with
a three-phase renovation
plan. Phase one called for
building a new fire station,
which was completed.
Phase two was to entail
the office complex with a
campus design, and phase
three involved work on the
maintenance building.
In 2010, Bev Koenig, a
member of the facilities
committee, questioned
whether the trustees planned
to address problems at the
building.
She worried about water
problems and the possibility
of mold. “Isn’t this a health
threat to the workers and the
people coming here?” she
asked.
Other Business
In other business, the
trustees:
•Sent a resolution of
necessity to the Wood County auditor’s office asking the
auditor to determine the
amount of money a 3-mill
renewal levy will generate
for the police department.
The trustees are planning
on placing the five-year
levy, which expires December 31, on the November
ballot.
•Agreed to participate in
an engineering study at a
cost of $5,000 for a roundabout at Roachton and Hull
Prairie roads. The township
and seven other entities will
share the cost of the study.
•Approved a tentative
memorandum of understanding with developers of
Eckel Trace subdivision for
the Carronade Drive extension, which will allow for
the connection of Carronade
at State Route 199.
•Authorized payment of
$1,333
for
Recycle
Roundup. The township
splits the cost for the annual
recycling event with the
City of Perrysburg.

supervisor Kraig Gottfried

Perrysburg Municipal
Court Judge Molly Mack
described June 30 as a good
day, a very special day, as
she
welcomed
Ohio
Supreme Court Chief Justice
Maureen O’Connor to Perrysburg Municipal Court.
“I am proud and happy to
have Supreme Court Justice
Maureen O’Connor with us
today, as well as Sixth District Court of Appeals Judge
Arlene Singer and Doug
Cubberley, Bowling Green
Municipal Court administrator and chief probation officer,” she said.
Chief Justice O’Connor,
making her first visit to Perrysburg, presented Supreme
Court Technology Grants to
the Perrysburg and Bowling
Green municipal courts and
the Sixth District Court of
Appeals totaling more than
$85,000.
“I am pleased to personally present three checks on
behalf of the Supreme
Court. It is important that we
support local court technology projects to remove any
barriers to the efficient and
effective administration of
justice,” said Chief Justice
O’Connor.
The Supreme Court
announced the availability
of funds earlier in the year
for supporting local technology projects through the
Ohio Courts Technology Initiative.
The
chief
justice
explained that the funds are
from the Supreme Court
budget.
“It is from the money I
had in my budget for our
technology needs,” she said.
“Our projects were not at the
point where they were ready.
In the construction industry,
they call it shovel ready–we
were not shovel ready. So
we had this money in our
budget and rather than put it
back in the general fund, I
thought we could use it to
enhance the technological
capacity of our local courts.
“One of the major things
that I hear about is that the
courts do not have enough
funding. We expect courts to
come up to a level of technology, so we can exchange
information and store data

The Fort Industry chapter of DAR recently honored Richard Baranowski for the publication of his book, “Perrysburg Village Voices: Hometown Stories of the Past.”
Pictured from left, are Marilyn Stinehart, DAR Northwest district director; Nancy Wright, vice regent for the
state of Ohio; Mr. Baranowski; Sandy McCann, regent for the state of Ohio; Brigitte David, regent of Fort Industry chapter, and Chris Burkhart, past regent of Fort Industry chapter.
The Fort Industry chapter
of the Daughters of the
American
Revolution
(DAR) recently honored
Richard Baranowski, Way
Library local history librarian, for the publication of his
book “Perrysburg Village
Voices: Hometown Stories
of the Past.”
More than two years ago,
the Fort Industry chapter
began working with Mr.
Baranowski to help him
apply for a matching grant
as part of the DAR’s special
projects grants program.
Grant funding is provided
throughout the country to
support local community
projects which exemplify
the three mission areas of
DAR–historic preservation,
education and patriotism.
Not only was the Perrysburg book awarded the maximum amount of $10,000, it
was the only grant awarded
by the DAR in Ohio in
2014. It also was the largest
donation received for the
book’s publication.
Special DAR dignitaries
attending the Fort Industry
meeting were Sandy
McCann, regent for the state
of Ohio; Nancy Wright, vice
regent for the state of Ohio,
and Marilyn Stinehart,
Northwest district director.
The state regent extended
an invitation to Mr. Baranowski and his wife to
attend the Ohio DAR Fall
Fun Fair conference in
Columbus in August. He
will be presented to Lynn
Forney Young, the national
DAR president general.
A private release of the
book will be on August 28,
and the public release will
occur on September 12, in
time for Harrison Rally Day,
and to help commemorate
Perrysburg’s Bicentennial
next year.
The book had its beginnings in 2002, when Mr.
Baranowski encouraged
local residents to bring in
their scrapbooks, photos,
journals and publications.
He then began interviewing
people individually, in families and groups. Before long
he had a stack of oral histories, which he made available as DVDs.
In 2011, he spent about a
year reviewing all the interviews and eventually selected 50 to be published in
book form. The book also
contains 175 photographs
and will sell for $25.
A prickly pear cactus
is native to sunny, desertlike conditions–not your
typical climate of northwest Ohio.
However, Perrysburg
resident Bill King has
been growing this particular cactus for more than
20 years after bringing a
leaf back from a family
trip to Las Vegas.
He said it has grown
and spread over the
years and has the most
beautiful yellow flowers
during the late spring
season.
The cactus has flat,
green pads that are oval
to round in shape, ranging from four to 18 inches
in length. It also has long,
sharp spines that protrude from the pads.

corner of your yard?

Penta robotics camp challenges area teens
The camp also allowed
students to employ STEM
concepts on the playing field,
while learning teamwork,
leadership, communications
and more.
Presented by the Robotics
Education and Competition
Foundation, the VEX robotics contest can be taken far
outside the camp environment.
Worldwide, teams of students design and construct
robots to play against other
teams in a game-based engineering challenge.
Tournaments are held
year-round at local, state and
national levels, said Mr.
Robinson, and local champions have the opportunity to
compete against the best in
the world at the VEX Robotics World Championship held
each spring.
To keep pace with other
countries, the engineering
instructor believes it is important to expose students to
robotics education at a young
age.
“If we wait until they are
juniors in high school, they
are way behind,” he added.
Penta Career Center is one
of 12 districts statewide offering robotic camps this summer.
The camp is sponsored by
the Robotics Advanced Manufacturing Technical Engineering
Collaborative
(RAMTEC) in which Penta
is one of nine career center
partners in Ohio.

to collide on the course.
The primary goal of the
camp is to educate students in
robotics through trial and
error, explained Mr. Robinson.
He noted that Honda and
Depco support the camps
because they promote an area
of skilled labor that is in short
supply.
“This is STEM education,” he said, adding that
much of the learning is hands
on.
For the students, building
the robotic vehicles goes
beyond science, technology,
engineering and math. The
game is fun and intense as
they try to outdo the competition.
Racing took on new
meaning at Penta Career Center July 22-24 when 60 area
teens participated in a VEX
Robotics Camp.
Looking more like lunar
vehicles, the robots were constructed from a standard kit
provided by VEX Robotics,
which produces the materials
to introduce students to robotics field.
Instructor Mark Robinson,
an engineering teacher at
Marion Harding High
School, said students working
in pairs assembled the units
on the first day of the class.
“When they started, their
robots were identical,” he
said.
During day two, teams
modified their robots in
preparation for competition,
which consisted of maneuvering through a course,
gathering foam balls and
depositing them in nets at a
corner of the course.
On day three, students
spent the morning practicing
their designs before competing against each other in the
afternoon.
A challenge facing teams
occurred at the start of the
contest. They were required
to program the system to
drive itself for the first 15
seconds before being manually controlled.
The vehicles were quick

learn anything and everything there is to be a
school bus driver, said the
transportation director.
From there, the potential
driver spends a minimum
of 12 hours on the bus with
an onboard instructor.
“He teaches them
everything about driving,”
said Mrs. Moser. “How to
use the eight-way light
system, how to cross at a
railroad crossing, how to
pick up and discharge students at a bus stop and the
list goes on. The driver has
to learn off-road maneuverability which we have a
course at the high school.
“They also learn to
precheck a bus. Before that
bus goes out on the road,
the driver must go from
front to back, top to bottom and look at everything
to make sure it is safe.”

But it all costs money and
not all courts have the budget that allows that to happen
as rapidly as we would like
to see.”
The Supreme Court
received 336 applications,
vetted to meet the criteria
and awarded more than 110
grants–totaling more than
$2.5 million.
The Perrysburg court
grant of $71,676 will
upgrade the courtroom’s
Bayer roads. Mr. LaHote
said the signs are currently
on Thompson, the busier
road.
Mr. Celley said he doesn’t believe it would be a
problem to change the signage. “Both are township
roads, so it is not a complicated process.”
•Heard from Glenwood
Road residents Brenda
Strong and Donna Reitzel
regarding gun shots and
approval of a neighbor ’s
variance that Ms. Reitzel
believes encroaches on her
property.
In response, the trustees
said that as a township they
do not have the authority
under Ohio law to control
the discharge of firearms.
They also explained that
the Ohio Revised Code does
not give the trustees authority over the board of zoning
appeals. “We can’t usurp
their authority,” added Mr.
Mack.

“It is a very tedious
process–very overwhelming,” said Mrs. Moser.
“But once they receive
their license and endorsements from ODE, the
recertification is every six
years and a simpler
process.
“When someone calls
me and says they are interested in becoming a bus
driver, I tell them everything it entails because it is
overwhelming. It does
scare people, but it is a
great job.”
Once everything is
completed and approved,
the transportation director
schedules the new driver
with an onboard instructor
with students to observe.
Then the following day,
the new driver takes the

Owens to implement
tuition guarantee program
Owens Community College announces the implementation of a tuition
guarantee program, pending
Ohio Board of Regents approval, that will hold tuition
rates for fall 2015 and spring
2016 for up to three years or
until the completion of a degree, whichever comes first.
“Our mission is student
success and for many students
cost plays a big factor in their
ability to continue their education, Mike Bower, Ph.D., president of Owens Community
College. “While our tuition
rate is still lower than other institutions in northwest Ohio,
we want to do all we can to assist students in not only reducing cost, but also the time
required to complete a degree.”
Existing full and part-time
students and new (first-time)
full-time students who elect to
enroll in at least 15 credit
hours in fall semester 2015 or
spring semester 2016 will be
eligible for the guarantee.
Their tuition will be guaranteed at current rates during the
time of their participation in
the program.
Students will be required to
sign a completion pledge that
states they will: maintain continuous enrollment in fall and
spring semesters with at least
15 credit hours per semester
for three years or until degree
completion, whichever comes
first; and complete an academic plan by the end of their
second semester.
“The tuition guarantee program is designed to help students and parents accurately
predict tuition costs for their
entire time here at Owens,”
said Mr. Bower. “We want to
see students succeed and this
program is rewarding students
for taking positive steps toward completion.”
The tuition guarantee is
part of Owens’ “Take 15” initiative that assists students in
graduating on time, saving tuition money, and starting their
careers sooner.

Health District hopeful outbreak has ended
On May 27, the Wood
County Health District
learned of positive salmonella
test results in residents of
Heritage Corner Assisted Living facility. The WCHD immediately notified the Ohio
Department of Health (ODH)
and began working with the
facility to initiate infection
control measures and attempt
to identify the source of the
infection.
WCHD also contacted a
food safety specialist with the
ODH Food Safety Program.
In addition, ODH’s Division
of Quality Assurance worked
closely with the facility to
monitor infection control
practices.
There have been 18 positive cases but no new cases of
symptoms have been reported
since June 10.
During the outbreak, two
residents who tested positive
for salmonella died. However,
the WCHD cannot say
whether this was related to
the illness.
“Our hearts go out to the
residents, employees and
their families affected by this
outbreak,” states Health Commissioner Ben Batey. “We
truly appreciate all of the cooperation from the residents
who have participated in the
investigation during this difficult time in their lives.”
Everyone who has developed symptoms since May
27, has been tested but not
everyone who has been tested
has been positive and some
test results are still pending.
The normal incubation period
for salmonella is 12-72 hours.
With more than six days passing since the last new report
of symptoms, the outbreak
may be at its end.
“Although we are still
awaiting some test results,
with the knowledge that there
have been no new reports of
symptoms, we are cautiously
optimistic that the outbreak is
done,” said Amy Jones, director of nursing.
Since learning of the outbreak, the health district has
taken several steps to both try
to identify the cause and pre-
vent more cases. Sanitarians
and an Ohio Department of
Health Food Safety Specialist
inspected the kitchen and
spoke with the kitchen manager about food preparation
practices and food sources.
No major problems were
identified.
The Health District and
ODH recommended closing
of common areas such as dining and activity rooms until
the reports of new symptoms
ceased. In addition the facility was encouraged to sanitize
these areas and make hand
sanitizer readily available
throughout. The common
areas were opened over the
weekend after passing the 72
hour mark of the last report of
new symptoms.
Several health district employees were in the facility
last week and this week to
provide information to residents and ask questions about
food and activities in the last
few weeks. The hope in these
interviews is to try to identify
an item or event that separates
those that got sick and those
that didn’t.
“We’re doing our best to
find the source of the outbreak, but it’s important to remember that the majority of
outbreaks are never traced
back to a source,” said Connor Rittwage, epidemiologist.
“There can be so many variables when you’re talking
about what people eat and do
over the potential exposure
period, that it can be difficult
to identify a common link.”
Information from interviews of the residents is still
being analyzed and will take
weeks to complete.
“Even in these sorts of
outbreaks where we may
never know the exact cause,
we aim to provide guidance
and oversight to help quickly
reduce the spread of the disease to others and their families,” said Mr. Batey. “We
remain committed to fully investigating all disease outbreaks in Wood County so
that any insights found can be
shared with individuals and
facilities for future prevention
measures.”
Salmonella is an enteric
bacterium, which means that
it lives in the intestinal tracts
of humans and other animals.
Salmonella bacteria are usually transmitted to humans by
eating foods contaminated
with human or animal feces.
Salmonella bacteria are
often found in food, water
and on animals. Salmonellosis is typically a food-borne
illness acquired from contaminated raw poultry, eggs, and
unpasteurized milk and
cheese products. Although
poultry and eggs are primary
culprits, Salmonella can be
found in a variety of foods including ground meat, fruits,
and
vegetables–
even
processed foods such as
frozen pot pies. Contaminated foods usually look and
smell normal.
Other sources of exposure
include contact with infected
animals/pets, especially turtles, iguanas, other reptiles,
chicks, cattle and poultry.
An infected food handler
who neglects to wash his or
her hands with soap and
warm water after using the
bathroom may also contaminate food.
Most persons infected
with salmonella develop
symptoms including nausea,
diarrhea, fever and abdominal
cramps; they typically start
12 to 72 hours after exposure.
There is no real cure for
Salmonella infection, except
treatment of the symptoms.
Persons with severe diarrhea
may require rehydration,
often with intravenous fluids.
The illness usually lasts
four to seven days, and most
persons recover without treatment. However, in some persons, the diarrhea may be so
severe that the patient needs
to be hospitalized.
Although anyone can get a
Salmonella infection, older
adults, infants, and people
with impaired immune systems are at increased risk for
serious illness. In these people, a relatively small number
of Salmonella bacteria can
cause severe illness.

Ohio State two-time Heisman Trophy winner and College Football Hall of Famer
Archie Griffin will be the
guest speaker at a dinner and
auction fund-raiser Friday,
July 24.
The benefit is annually organized by Rossford High
School football coach and
teacher Todd Drusback.
Proceeds will go to
Parker’s Purpose, a non-profit
501(c)3 organization dedicated to helping Toledo area
parents in immediate financial crisis with ill or disabled
children.
Coach Drusback founded
the organization in May 2008
while coaching at Fremont
St. Joseph’s High School. He
was inspired by Parker Inks,
who is now a 10th grader
with congenital muscular
dystrophy and served as a
ballboy and pre-game motivational speaker for the team.
“Through the years Parker
has proven that he can do a
lot,” Coach Drusback explained. “He has been an
honorary ambassador for
Easter Seals and has helped
raise thousands of dollars for
the organization.”
“He, along with his parents, are constantly reminding others to focus on what
you can do and never form an
opinion about what someone
is capable of, just from looking at them.”
Free CPR class
offered July 15
A free CPR class will be
offered by the Perrysburg Fire
CPR Training Center on
Wednesday, July 15, from
1 to 4 p.m., at Way Public Library.
The class is for people
who want to learn CPR but do
not need a course completion
card.
It is ideal for students, parents, grandparents, babysitters and others interested in
learning how to save a life.
The class will cover adult
hands-only CPR with AED
and choking, child CPR and
choking, and infant CPR and
choking.
To register, call the Way
Library information desk at
419-874-3135, extension 119.

the Rose Bowl four years.
At Ohio State, Griffin
scored 26 touchdowns and
gained 5,589 yards, a school
record. He had 31 straight
regular-season games where
he rushed for more than 100
yards–a total that remains an
NCAA record to this day.
The statistics are especially impressive because
Coach Woody Hayes usually
only allowed the running
back to play until the Buckeyes had a commanding
lead–commonly only half of
the game.
Mr. Griffin won the Heisman trophy in 1974 and
1975, also named the Most
Valuable Player of the Big 10
and National Player of the
Year.
He graduated with a degree in industrial relations a
quarter early from OSU. In
honor of Griffin’s academic
accomplishments, the NCAA
granted him the Top Five
Award, which recognizes college athletes for performing
well on the playing field, as
well as in the classroom.
He also was the first
Buckeye football player to
have his jersey number, 45,
retired.
Upon graduation, the
Cincinnati Bengals drafted
him and he played eight
Archie Griffin
Coach Drusback noted
that Parker’s struggles have
brought hundreds of people
together, through a variety of
fundraisers, to help families
in financial crisis.
“The result was people
giving selflessly of themselves to help a family that
was in need,” the coach said.
Since 2008, Parker’s Purpose has helped hundreds of
families with donations totaling more than $125,000.
An iconic figure in Ohio
State University history, Mr.
Griffin thrilled Buckeyes
with his exploits on the football field from 1972 to 1975
and has spent his professional career serving the university and its accomplished
alumni.
Mr. Griffin became one of
the greatest running backs in
college football and the only
player to win the Heisman
Trophy twice.
During his tenure, the
Buckeyes won four Big Ten
championships and played in
years, averaging 4.1 yards per
carry for his career.
Retiring from football,
Mr. Griffin returned to Ohio
State as an administrator,
eventually becoming the associate athletic director. Since
2004, he has served as president of the OSU Alumni Association.
He created the Archie
Griffin Scholarship Fund,
which benefits Ohio State’s
Olympic sports programs.
He and his wife, Bonita,
formed the Archie and
Bonita Griffin Foundation
Fund that helps develop
sports, educational and travel
programs for youth in central
Ohio.
He has three children Anthony, Andre and Adam.
The auction begins at 5
p.m., and dinner at 6 p.m.
Tickets are $65, or a table of
eight for $450. Only 400 tickets are available.
The event at Ole Zim’s
Wagon Shed in Gibsonburg
includes a buffet dinner, auction, prize ball draws and
grand auction.

In celebration of the Bicentennial of the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, the Ohio
Northwest Ordinance and U.S.
Constitution
Bicentennial
Commission developed the
Spirit of ’87 Awards Program.
The awards were established to recognize and honor
citizens at the local level
whose daily actions embody
the principles set forth in the
Northwest Ordinance.
Nominations were taken in
six different categories directly related to the Ordinance.
Every Ohio community was
able to participate in the program and local Spirit of ’87
Award honorees qualified for
statewide recognition.
In 1988, the Wood County
Commissioners decided to
continue with the awards to
honor services rendered by
Wood County citizens. Although the names of some
awards have changed over the
years, the spirit of the awards
is alive today.

Richard Rettig participates in ESGR Boss Lift
Richard Rettig recently
participated in a Boss Lift as
a guest of the Ohio Committee Employer Support of the
Guard and Reserve. The Ohio
Committee, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) a Department
of Defense (DOD) office
hosted an Employer Outreach
event June 25 and 26.
The 127th Fighter Wing
and Ohio Employer Support
of the Guard and Reserve
(ESGR) invited approximately 15 employers and
civic leaders on a Boss Lift
air refueling mission during a
two day event hosted jointly
by the Ohio and Michigan
ESGR committees.
The “Bosses,” nominated
by Ohio Guard and Reserve
employees, boarded a KC
135 Stratotanker assigned to
the 127th Air Refueling
Squadron, based at Selfridge
Air National Guard Base, and
witnessed a A-10 Thunderbolt II, conduct a refueling
mission while taking on an
aerial view of Lake Michigan.
Each employer was invited to the boom operator’s
bay on the aircraft to observe
the refueling action up close.
The Boss Lift provides employers an opportunity to see
firsthand what citizen-airman
experience while away from
work to attend military training or activated for a federal
or state mission.
The two day event included briefings and tours of
the 127th Wing components
including the 107th Fighter
Squadron which flies the A10 Thunderbolt II. Employers

of Support witnessed by Tom Uhler, ESGR committee
member, Ohio Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve.
spent time in the A-10 simulator to grasp the complexity
and challenges today’s airmen face.
“We relay greatly on our
traditional guardsman and reservists and without employer support todays citizen
warriors wouldn’t be able to
do their jobs,” said Bob Mittelstaedt, leader of the Ohio
contingent. “The role employer’s play is certainly a direct role in the defense of this
nation.”
“A successful Boss lift
helps develop strong personal
relationships between employers of Reserve component members and the
Department of Defense, “said
Christine Kloss, ESGR employer support specialist. “It
provides employers and supervisors the opportunity to
better understand what their
employees do when they are
away from their civilian occupation for military duty.”
The ESGR representatives
also explained the mission of
ESGR which is to develop
and promote employer support for Guard and Reserve
service by advocating relevant initiatives, recognizing
outstanding support, increasing awareness of the applicable laws, and resolving
conflict between employers
and service members.
The employers concluded
the two day event by signing
the ESGR “Statement of Support” which is the cornerstone
of ESGR’s efforts to gain and
maintain employer support
and is intended to “open the
door” to develop employers
as advocates for their employees participation in the
National Guard and Reserve.

“Auvers, Landscape with Plough” oil on canvas, by Charles-François Daubigny
our collection and happens to
have the same subject matter
found in Van Gogh’s ‘Wheat
Fields with Reaper, Auvers,’
which is part of our collection.”
“Auvers, Landscape with
Plough” is a somber painting.
Storm clouds rapidly brushed
in dark tones of gray and
black–even
traces
of
green–weigh heavily in the
upper left, while lighter color
tones of gray and white, many
smoothly applied with the
palette knife, dominate at
right where a partially bluehaloed sun brightly looms.
The fields are a riot of greens
and browns. A single plow, a
few haystacks and a hay
wagon suggest a human presence. The foreboding mood is
made more so by two crows
prominently flying at right
and a larger flock visible in
the distance.

and American painting and
sculpture before 1900 and the
one who first spotted the
painting at TEFAF, describes
Daubigny’s Auvers as being
laden with the fleeting aspect
of nature.
“This Daubigny painting
is shockingly forward looking,” said Mr. Nichols. “It’s
truly a great painting. The
surface is vibrant. You can
see how the artist was being
influenced by his peers who
were Impressionists.”
Daubigny was the son and
nephew of painters. He
trained as an engraver before
becoming a painter of landscapes. A member of the Barbizon School, his paintings
were first exhibited at the
Paris Salon in 1838 and continued to be shown there
throughout his life.
Around 1852, Daubigny
became friends with fellow
landscape painter Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (French,
1796-1875), whose work
would impact both his subject
matter and style. In the 1860s,
critics accused Daubigny of
painting mere “impressions.”
By then his work reflected his
growing friendships with and
admiration for Monet, Pissarro, Sisely and Degas. The
admiration and influence
went both ways, said Mr.
Nichols.
TMA’s new purchase is
among works that will be featured in the special exhibition
From the Collection: 300
Years of French Landscape
Painting that runs July 17
through October 11, in
Gallery 18 at the Museum.
Admission to the Museum
and to the exhibition is free.

•LLOYD HILL JR.
Lloyd J. Hill, Jr. 85, of Perrysburg, Ohio, passed away
peacefully at his home on Saturday, June 27, 2015, surrounded by his loving family.
Lloyd was born October
31, 1929, in Litchfield, Illinois, to Lloyd J. and Estella
(Schafer) Hill Sr. He served
our country in the United
States Army in the Korean
Conflict. Lloyd earned his
bachelor of science degree in
mechanical engineering from
the University of Illinois,
graduating in 1951. He married Lois A. Heckman on November 7, 1953, at Bethlehem
Lutheran Church in Pemberville, Ohio. After marriage,
the couple lived in Edwardsville, Illinois, where
Lloyd worked for Union Electric Co. in St. Louis. In 1960
the family relocated to Perrysburg, where they lived on
Mulberry Street until a recent
move to Waterford at Levis
Commons. During his career,
Lloyd also worked for Campbell Deboe and Solid Fuel
Technology as a Consulting
Engineer in the power industry, before retiring in 1993.
Lloyd’s greatest joy was
spending time with his loving
family. He was especially
fond of steam locomotives and
took train trips all over the
world.
Along with his wife, Lois,
Lloyd is survived by his children, Cynthia A. (David)
Bench, Kenneth R. (Mary)
Hill, Jeanne E. (Daniel) Hook,
Jeffrey L. (Leslie) Hill and
Laura E. (Kevin) Smith;
grandchildren, Kurt (Corinna)

Home Instead holding Christmas in July event for Ability Center ProMedica to offer free
Home Instead Senior
Care is partnering with the
Flying Joe coffee shop in
Perrysburg during the month
of July to support the Ability
Center’s Nursing Home
Transition program.
According to The Ability
Center, by 2020 there will be
348,000 Ohioans with significant disabilities requiring
long-term services. This is in
correlation with the aging
Baby Boomer generation,
which will all be over the
age of 65 by 2029.
Since 2000, The Ability
Center has helped more than
650 Ohioans move from
nursing facilities into their
homes, allowing them to
thrive in the community.
Moving into a new home
or apartment requires many
goods for individuals to
achieve independence and
The Ability Center’s program relies on donations
from partners and community members to continue its
success.
“When someone transitions from an institutional
setting into a home of their
own,” said Dan Wilkins,
ACT’s director of public relations. “They usually do so
with little more than what fit
into the closet in their room.
We know it takes many
things to make a house a
home, so we work with and
depend upon area individuals and organizations to help
provide these household
goods.”
The Ability Center requests items that allow an
individual to create a fresh
start in a new home. These
items include bath towels,
mixing bowls, shower curtain liners, cleaning supplies, toiletries and more.
The Christmas in July
program runs through the
entire month.
Those interested in participating can follow these
simple steps to donate:
•Stop by the Flying Joe
during business hours and
visit the Home Instead
Christmas Tree;
•Pick an ornament tag
from the tree;
•Purchase the gift listed
on the ornament tag;

TMA acquires Daubigny’s ‘Auvers, Landscape with Plough’
Plough,” an oil painting dating from 1877 by CharlesFrançois Daubigny (French,
1817-1878) has been acquired by the Toledo Museum
of Art.
Daubigny lived northwest
of Paris in Auvers-sur-Oise
during his later years and
painted the surrounding farmlands as early 1860. This
landscape painting was finished during the last year of
the artist’s life.
Not long ago, TMA sold
two Daubigny paintings that
had been kept in storage after
being donated by a local collector. Proceeds from the sale,
as the donor intended, were
earmarked for acquiring a
better example of the French
artist’s work. When Auvers,
Landscape with Plough was
offered at The European Fine
Art Fair (TEFAF) in Maastricht this spring by the Galerie Sanct Lucas of Vienna,
the museum immediately
bought it.
Plough is much different
from the paintings we sold,”
according to Museum Director Brian Kennedy. “It is a

PERRYSBURG MESSENGER JOURNAL — July 8, 2015 — Page 7
Rainy weather may increase toxic algae blooms in Lake Erie
This spring, the forecast
for harmful algae in Lake
Erie was a “moderate bloom,”
but the recent downpours of
rain may actually increase its
growth.
Weekly bulletins on harmful algae blooms (HABs)
have been issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the
National Center for Water
Quality Research at Heidelberg University.
The most recent bulletin,
released June 29, states,
“Given the high discharge expected this week, the maximum potential severity
should be considered possible.”
Last summer, nearly
400,000 area residents were
affected by a drinking water
ban due to the presence of
microcystin in the water system.
Microcystin is a toxin produced by cyanobacteria, also
known as “blue green algae.”
The algae changes the lake
water to a bright green color
and occurs when excess nitrogen and phosphorus are
present in lakes and streams.
These nutrients come from
runoff of fertilized fields and
lawns and malfunctioning
septic systems.
The bulletins rank their
projections on a “bloom
severity index” from 1 to 10,
with the worst being 10,
which occurred in 2011. Last
summer was ranked at 7.
The agencies currently are
projecting a bloom index this
summer between 6 and 8.
“Recent rainfall has significantly increased the phosphorus load over the last
week, indicating an increase
in the bloom severity index
compared to previous projections,” the bulletin states.
The agencies also monitor
the amount of phosphorus in
Lake Erie.
Currently, 1,354 metric
tons of cumulative total phosphorus has dumped into the
lake, according to the report.
In comparison, about
1,000 metric tons were
recorded at this time last summer, and 2011 saw about
2,300 metric tons.
“Nutrient loads have surpassed those of 2013 and
2014, but remain below
2011,” the bulletin explains.
“The high discharge in the
Maumee River has also introduced sediment into the western basin, with the high
sediment
concentrations
along the Ohio coast between
Toledo and Sandusky,” it
states.
Waiting for the heavy rain
water to make its way out to
the lake, the agencies acknowledged that its effects
are not yet known.
“We will understand the
extent of this event by next
week,” they reported.
The bulletins will be issued twice weekly beginning
in July.
Blue Ribbon Panel
The City of Toledo convened a Blue Ribbon Panel to
evaluate the long-term needs
at the Collins Park water
treatment plant.
The panel of third-party
experts in the fields of HABs
and water treatment plant
construction have provided
independent recommendations regarding best practices
in water treatment and the effective treatment of algae.
On June 15, Toledo Mayor
Paula Hicks-Hudson received
the final panel recommendations for the treatment plant.
“We are pleased that the
panel thoroughly reviewed
the steps the city is taking to
address the upcoming HAB
season; and we are especially
thankful for the panel’s input
regarding the selection of the
long-term treatment technology for the Collins Park water
treatment plant,” she said.
Among the panel’s 12 recommendations:
•Adding an ozonation
process to the existing water
treatment program at Collins
Park as ozone is the longterm and best available treatment barrier for algal toxins.
•Looking at the viability
of some type of river bank filtration or infiltration gallery
approach providing further
protection during HAB
events.
•Investigating the option
to add baffling around the intake crib as a barrier against
algae entering the intake. The
baffle would enable water to
be drawn toward the intake
from a greater depth and presumably result in lower levels
of algal counts, and microcystin toxins.
The panel’s recommendations will be implemented
over the next three to four
years, the mayor said.
Prepared for Algal Bloom
Season
The City of Toledo’s plan
for the upcoming algal bloom
season includes increased
monitoring and treatment of
source water to ensure the
water remains safe to drink.
Two buoys were installed
around the intake facility in
Lake Erie to continuously
monitor indicators like pH
and temperature and provide

The City of Toledo has launched a colored-coded graphic on water quality on its website. It is updated to reflect the most recent water quality data analysis available, the system
shows at a quick glance the status of the region’s drinking water quality. The dashboard’s direct link is http:toledo.oh.gov/services/public-utilities/water-treatment/water-quality/.
Water quality data of Lake Erie is monitored 24 hours daily. Testing is based on the quality of the lake and will be increased as conditions change. Test results are not posted
each day; microcystin testing is not needed when lake conditions are not suitable for harmful algal blooms, according to the city’s public utilities department.
advance warning of a severe
algal bloom.
Early warning water quality monitoring buoys and
Sonde water quality sensors
provide early warning to
chemists of needed treatment
adjustments.
The sensors detect the
water temperature, pH, turbidity, chlorophyl and bluegreen algae among other
factors.
Data and photos and from
the real-time instruments on
the buoys can be viewed
through the city’s website.
Observations from the
buoys are shared with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the
National Center for Water
Quality Research at Heidelberg University and numerous other agencies.
By July 1, city officials
promised to have chemical
feed improvements in place at
the intake, the low service
pump station and the Collins
Park Water Treatment Plant.
City scientists are monitoring the treated, as well as
the untreated, water continuously for microcystins, using
the ELISA (enzyme-linked
immunosorbent
assay)
method currently accepted by
the Ohio EPA.
If microcystins are detected in the lake at the level
of 3 parts per billion, testing
will increase to three times
per week.
If microcystin levels are
found to be above 5 parts per
billion, the samples will be
tested daily.
All results are posted on
the
city’s
website,
toledo.oh.gov.
In addition, the Ohio EPA
has provided two interest-free
loans to finance projects for
treating HABs.
A $5.14 million loan will
fund construction of powdered, activated carbon storage silos at the Collins Park
plant and low service pump
station, and upgrades to the
potassium permanganate and
activated carbon feed sys-
tems. These are critical water
treatment technologies that
will allow the city to better remove toxins produced by
HABs starting this year.
A $1.457 million loan will
fund a three-part project comprised of an in-depth evaluation of long-term HAB
treatment alternatives to identify preferred treatment
process technology; formation of the blue ribbon panel
to review water treatment
needs; and conversion of a
conventional filter at the treatment plant to a new granular
activated carbon filter as a
part of a pilot study on removal efficiency of algal toxins.
In addition to this new
technology provided by the
loans, the city was preparing
this spring for the HAB season by putting more barriers
into place, such as:
•New chlorine facility at
Collins Park plant with four
times the capacity of the existing chlorination system.
•Increased solids removal
capability at Collins Park
plant.
•Emergency preparedness
through planning, training
and drilling, and improved
communications internally
and externally.
Local agencies respond to environmental
health issues caused by heavy rains
The Wood County Health
District, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency
(Ohio EPA) Northwest District Office, Wood County
Emergency
Management
Agency (EMA) and the Ohio
Department
of
Health
(ODH) are working together
to address the potential environmental and public health
hazards caused by recent
heavy rains.
An underground fuel oil
tank was overtaken by water
resulting in fuel leaking onto
the ground in a residential
neighborhood in Lake Township. Officials have been in
contact with the property’s
owner, who did not know the
fuel tank was there.
The Health District and
ODH have been looking into
concerns of nearby wells
being affected by the fuel oil.
Together the two agencies
examined the location of the
spill, nearby wells and the
direction of ground water
flow to identify wells to sample. A small amount of fuel
oil does appear to have made
it off the property onto the
neighboring properties directly on each side of it.
They have identified 12
wells to sample to determine
if the fuel made it into them.
The Ohio Department of
Health has offered to cover
the cost of the sampling.
Health District sanitarians
went door-to-door to make
sure residents in the area
knew about the incident.
They gave informational
packets to residents and offered them the option to have
their wells tested.
“If they have concerns,
they should avoid drinking
the water until the test results
come back,” said Lana
Tackle home maintenance
projects to save money
Much like the upkeep on
your car, tackling home
maintenance on a regular
basis will prevent problems
from developing and save
you from larger repair costs
down the road. Some projects should be left to the
professionals, but there are
plenty of weekend jobs that
any homeowner can easily
handle, like these:
•Inspect your roof and
make minor repairs. Winter
can be especially hard on a
roof. Look for ice, hail or
water damage. Replace any
cracked or missing shingles
and clear any debris.
•Clean your gutters. It’s
not glamorous work, but
your home’s gutters play an
essential role in moving
water away from your home
and preventing damage.
Consider installing gutter
guards to ensure your gutters remain functional and
free from debris.
•Inspect windows and
doors and re-caulk where
necessary. Because a proper
seal is essential in both heating and cooling seasons, this
job should be performed
twice a year to protect
against drafts and moisture,
and to keep insects out.
Worn weather stripping
should also be replaced.
•Check your insulation.
Attics should be insulated to
R50, which can usually be
achieved with an insulation
depth of at least 16 inches.
Top up with an insulation
product that is water repellant and fire resistant, like
Roxul Comfortbatt. Don’t
forget to ensure that your
basement headers are insulated properly to prevent
overworking your furnace
and air conditioner.
Other simple jobs include fixing leaky faucets,
repairing and resealing
decks, inspecting the foundation and scheduling a
check-up for your HVAC
system. The key is being
honest about what you can
handle and, when in doubt,
call in the pros.
Glore, assistant director of
environmental health. “We
do not expect to find fuel oil
in the wells we are sampling,
but we want to be extra cautious,” Brad Espen, director
of environmental health.
“We are closely monitoring the situation and being
proactive to ensure public
health concerns are addressed,” said Health Commissioner Ben Batey.
The well on the property
has been cleaned by a registered water contractor and it
did not appear to have fuel
oil in it. The testing results
have not come back yet. The
fuel tank was pumped of remaining oil and water and
will be filled with either
grout slurry or cement.
The Ohio EPA oversees
the clean-up of chemical
spills, deploying measures to
prevent the spread of the
spill and providing guidance
on proper corrective actions.
Wood County Emergency Management Agency
coordinates response efforts
among the various agencies
and ensures the Ohio EMA is
aware of local situations and
responses.
A conference call was
held with ODH, Wood
County EMA and Wood
County Health District to
discuss the recent updates
and finalize plans for sampling.
After surgery for a routine hip replacement,
Mike was anxious to get back to his normal,
active lifestyle. His brief three week rehab
stay at St. Clare Commons helped maximize
his performance, and was the perfect
stepping stone from hospital to home.

Wood County Commissioners guest speakers at Perrysburg Rotary
Wood County Commissioners James Carter, Joel Kuhlman
and Doris Herringshaw were
guest speakers at a recent Rotary Club of Perrysburg luncheon meeting.
Commissioner Carter told
the club that the commissioners’ work can be summed up in
four words–budgets, bridges,
roads and pipelines.
He commented on the desire of several pipeline companies to run gas transmission
lines through Wood County and
suggested that a corridor be created to minimize environmental and property impact. The
gas lines raised numerous questions among Rotarians.
Commissioner Kuhlman
talked about the physical expansion of county buildings, including the expansion of the
justice center by 60 beds and
the 11,000 square feet being
added to the Ohio Department
of Job & Family Services facility.
He also discussed economic
development in Wood County.
The county had a good 2014
for economic development.
The commissioner gave exam-
‘The Lego Movie’
ples of the Home Depot distribution facility that was built in
the county, and the addition of
two more cranes at the CSX Intermodal terminal in North Baltimore.
Commissioner Herringshaw addressed the importance
of the job and family services
program and how the staff
works to help area individuals
with developing resumes and
preparing for job interviews.
Rotary International brings
together a global network of
volunteer leaders dedicated to
tackling the world’s most pressing humanitarian challenges.
Rotary connects 1.2 million
members of more than 34,000
Rotary clubs in over 200 countries and geographical areas.
Their work impacts lives at the
local and international levels,
from helping families in need
in their own communities to
working toward a polio-free
world.
The Rotary Club of Perrysburg has approximately 125
members. For more information on the Perrysburg club,

Celebrate the Norma Stark Memory Garden and Labyrinth,
Sunday, 4-5:30 p.m.–visit the garden, walk the labyrinth
A labyrinth is a single
winding path leading to a center. It offers visitors time to reflect, time to meditate, time to
pray, time to heal or just a time
out from a busy schedule.
The Norma Stark Memory
Garden and Labyrinth, 345
West South Boundary Street,
was created in memory of
Mrs. Stark’s parents, Norman
and Anna Belle Swaisgood,
who passed away in 2005 and
2006 respectively.
The labyrinth and garden,
completed in 2007, was designed by John Ridder of PAX
works of Indianapolis, Indiana, and is an adaptation of the
Chartres Labyrinth, found in
the cathedral at Chartres,
France.
In June 2011, Mrs. Stark
passed away at the age of 62.
She was a graduate of Lakota
High School, received her
bachelor’s degree in music education from Ohio State University and a master’s degree
in education from Bowling
Green State University. She
was a music teacher and band
director in several schools including Glenwood Elementary in Rossford. She was an
accompanist for Central
Catholic High School choirs
and a tutor for Anthony Wayne
High School.
A labyrinth is a single winding path leading to a center. It offers visitors time to reflect, time to
meditate, time to pray, time to heal or just a time out from a busy schedule.
After her retirement in
1999, she traveled to San
Francisco where she became
interested in labyrinth gardens
and became a labyrinth facilitator and Master Gardener.
Following her passing, the
Norma Stark Memory Garden
and Labyrinth Foundation was
established with a mission to
promote and maintain the garden and labyrinth as a sanctu-
ary for peace, prayer, meditation and healing. It is open to
the public all day, year around
for everyone to enjoy and use.
The foundation’s purpose,
as a 501(c)3, is to operate exclusively for charitable, educational and civic purposes,
providing a facility for the enjoyment and benefit of all.
On Sunday, July 12, between 4 and 5:30 p.m., the
community is invited to celebrate the garden and
labyrinth–to visit the garden,
walk the labyrinth, listen to
music and enjoy refreshments.

The Toledo Yacht Club built this Venetian/Renaissance style building with white stucco
outside walls and a red tiled roof in 1908.
Toledo Yacht Club to celebrate
150-year anniversary July 18-19
The Toledo Yacht Club
will host its 150-year celebration on July 18 and 19. This
hidden “gem” is located in
Point Place, facing the
Maumee Bay on the Maumee
River.
All are invited to the celebration at the Yacht Club,
located at One Bayview Park,
3900 Summit Street, Toledo.
There will be entertainment and bands during the
day and evening. Also featured is an Antique Car
Show, along with food vendors, and tours of the historical Toledo Yacht Club. Visitors can view a 92-foot Tall
Ship, the Schooner, Madeline, which will be docked at
the club.
There is a cover charge of
$5 to get into the grounds of
the club, where all the activities and entertainment are
taking place. Children, ages
8 and younger, are admitted
free. The public is invited to
see the beautiful, historic
club and join in all the festivities.
The following history of
this historic place in Point
Place was provided by P/C
Ronald Gable, TYC historian.
The Early Years
was founded 150 years ago
just after the Civil War in
1865.
Before the turn of the 19th
century, in 1878, the first
club house was erected on
“Gard Island” near the mouth
of the Ottawa River.
The club house on Gard
Island offered a retreat for
fishing, hunting and a sand
beach for swimming and sun
bathing.
For the member to reach
Gard Island, a trolley provided transportation to Point
Place and then board a ferry
boat near Gibbs Hotel and
Resort to reach the Island
club house.
merged with the Ohio Yacht
Club near the end of the 19th
century and moved to
Presque Isle, a popular summer resort at the mouth of the
Maumee River.
In 1898, a 25-year lease
was obtained from the City
of Toledo, Parks Commission
for several acres of land and
the lagoon at Bay View Park,
Point Place.
In 1903, the club formed a
building committee to erect a
large colonial wood club
house facing Maumee Bay
next to the Maumee River.
Upon completion, the yacht
anchorage was moved from
Riverside Park to the lagoon
at Bay View Park. The property today is owned by the
Toledo Yacht Club.
In February 1907, the
newly built frame wood clubhouse burned completely to
the ground with all of its contents.
Shortly thereafter, a new
building committee was
formed and plans set in
motion to build the current
Toledo Yacht Club building.
The architecture style was
Venetian/Renaissance with
white stucco outside walls
and a brilliant half round tiled
red roof.
The building was constructed of all reinforced concrete, stairways, walls, ceilings and floors to prevent
another damaging fire. The
building was to cost $15,000
and the furnishing another
$5,000.
The magnificent threestory building was completed
in April 1908. Due to Lent
and Easter observances, the
gala celebration was not held
until May.
On Palm Sunday 2001,
the Toledo Yacht Club sustained another major fire that
destroyed the entire first floor
bar and social hall areas. The
fire was contained on the first
floor by the all concrete
structure. The entire first
floor has been completely
rebuilt.
Sailing Yacht Racing
sponsored the First International Canada Cup sailing
yacht races at Maumee Bay
in 1898.
In 1906, TYC then held
the first long distance
overnight race on Lake Erie.
After the disastrous fire of
1907, Commodore Mills of
Detroit, Michigan, and a life
member of the Toledo Yacht
Club since 1898, gifted to the
Toledo Yacht Club a sterling
silver punch bowl to show
support after the fire for the
club at that difficult and
adverse time.
Commodore Mills–in promoting sailing yacht racing at
TYC in 1907–was the catalyst for the Invitational Mills
Trophy Race today.
In 2015, the Toledo Yacht
Club sponsored the 92nd
competition for the Mills trophy.
The Toledo Yacht Club at
Bay View Park was
enshrined in the National
Register of Historic Places in
1976 by the National Park
Service, United States
Department of Interior on the
200th anniversary of the
United State.
This year, 2015, marks a
milestone in the history of the
Toledo Yacht Club, the 150th
anniversary of its founding.
During the past 107 years the
clubhouse has been at Bay
View Park, Point Place Toledo. Throughout this period
the clubhouse has seen the
transformation of the Toledo
Yacht Club fleet of yachts
moored at its docks from sail
to steam to gas/diesel and
from gleaming wood finishes
to bright fiberglass.
Passing the test of time,
the Toledo Yacht Club has
been a member of the Point
Place community though two
world wars, a Great Depression, several armed conflicts
and numerous economic ups
and downs to remain a premier yacht on Western Lake
Erie.
One does not need to own
a boat to be a member of the
historic club. There are boating memberships as well as
social and business memberships.
Members can enjoy the
pool and tennis courts. The
club hosts parties and special
events throughout the year
for members and their guests.
For more information about
membership, call the TYC at
419-726-3485.

Perrysburg Twp. officers participate in Torch Run
Three Perrysburg Township police officers joined
more than 2,000 officers statewide in the Ohio Law
Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics.
The torch run involves a series of relays in which officials representing all facets of law enforcement run or
bicycle the Flame of Hope through their communities.
Recently, Officers Todd Curtis and Dave Molter ran
through the township holding the torch, and Officer
Dustin Glass carried it while riding a bicycle.
Toledo and northwest Ohio represented one of five
regions statewide participating in the run, which began
June 18 in Sylvania and ended at the Special Olympic
summer games in Columbus on June 26.
In Wood County, the torch run began at Hollywood
Casino and traveled through Rossford, Perrysburg
Township, Bowling Green and North Baltimore.
The goal of the event–the single largest grassroots
fund-raising program for Special Olympics Ohio–is to
raise money and gain awareness for the more than
23,000 athletes who participate in the summer games.

Toledo Museum of Art announces a variety of program offerings and activities for July
The Toledo Museum of
Art announces the following
program highlights for July.
Admission is free.
Exhibition Openings
From the Collection:
300 Years of French Landscape Painting, July 17 to
October 11, in Gallery 18.
Drawn entirely from the
holdings of the Toledo Museum of Art, From the Collection: 300 Years of French
Landscape Painting contains
a single, stunning example
selected from each of the
many styles that define the
French tradition of depicting
scenes in nature. This onegallery focus show begins
with Claude Lorrain’s 17thcentury classicism and
Boucher’s Rococo fantasy
and continues through the
19th century with Valenciennes
(Neo-classicism),
Rousseau
(Barbizon
School), Courbet (Realism),
Renoir (Impressionism) and
Cézanne (Post-Impressionism), and concludes in the
early 20th century with the
Fauvism of Derain.
Continuing Exhibitions
Play Time, through September 6, throughout the
museum. In a world that prioritizes work, how do we
encourage people of all ages
to relish the benefits of
play? Play Time celebrates
the art of diversion and engages visitors in multi-sensory, interactive installations
across the 36-acre museum
campus and in select locations around the city. Works
include a giant red ball appearing in unexpected locations around Toledo; pop-up
and temporary performances
throughout the summer utilizing puppetry, pageantry
and spectacle; and interactive installations both indoors and outdoors.
Earthly Beauty, through
September 6, in the Works
on Paper Gallery. Dreamy
depictions
of
worldly
beauty, both real and imagined, span from the West Indies to North Wales in this
exhibition of watercolor
paintings and drawings.
Artists from America to
India are represented, including Winslow Homer and
Joseph Mallord William
Turner. The more than 90
works of art on display are
assembled entirely from the
Toledo Museum of Art collection.
Community Gallery
Toys! Toys!
Toys
through September 17, in
the Community Gallery.
Toys are capable of evoking
powerful
memories–of
childhood, of by-gone eras,
of our collective cultural
history. In this Community
Gallery exhibition, local
artists celebrate the fun and
nostalgia of toys in a variety
of mediums, from 3-D to installation work.
Special Events
and Presentations
Film + Live Music: The
Sound of Silents, “Safety
Last,” July 16, at 7 p.m., in
the Peristyle. The 1923 film
“Safety Last” cemented
actor Harold Lloyd’s status
as a major movie star of the
silent film era. The comedy
centers on Lloyd’s character
as he tries to make it in the
big city. Instead, he ends up
at the center of a humorous
(and dangerous) publicity
stunt. Lloyd’s stunts and the
subsequent imagery they
created have become iconic.
The film will be accompanied by Detroit organist
Lance Luce.
Artist
Talk
with
Cameron Fuller, July 18, at
2 p.m., GlasSalon and Glass
Pavilion Courtyard. Artist
Cameron Fuller explores the
idea of space through his
unique masking tape installations, where he creates
new worlds on old surfaces.
Fuller will give a free illustrated talk on his work in the
GlasSalon. The program
will continue in the Glass
Pavilion Courtyard for a
conversation about Masking
Tape Installation, his workin-progress for the exhibition Play Time. Audience
members will be invited to
watch him continue the project until the museum closes
for the day at 5 p.m.
Sunday Family Film
Club: Classic Shorts, July
19, at 2 p.m., in the Little
Theater. The Sunday Family
Film Club features free
screenings of kid-friendly
movies, with film choices
inspired by current exhibitions in the museum. In this
edition, watch classic short
films known for their arresting visuals and award-winning scripts. The first to be
screened, called “The Red
Balloon,” was released in
1956 and won an Oscar for
Best Original Screenplay for
French filmmaker Albert
Lamorisse. It tells the story
of Pascal, a young Parisian
schoolboy, and his adventures with a curious red balloon that seems to have a
will of its own.
The second short to be
shown, “Paddle to the Sea,”
is a 1966 film that won the
Oscar for Best Live Action
Short Film. It explores envi-
ronmental themes of water
pollution, geography and
commerce on the Great
Lakes through the journey
of a child’s hand-carved toy
as it travels from Lake Superior to the Gulf of Saint
Lawrence. Finally, several
short films by Ray and
Charles Eames will be
shown.
Color Wheels Community Bike Ride: Wheels of
History, July 25, from 10
a.m. to 1 p.m., in the Community Garden. In the July
edition of the Toledo Museum of Art’s Color Wheels,
a monthly community bike
ride, participants will trace
Toledo’s history, visiting
jazz great Art Tatum’s birthplace and other historic
spots. Space is limited and
pre-registration is required;
email [email protected] or call 419-2558000, extension 7453, to
reserve a spot.
Performance:
The
Golden Rod Puppets of
Hobey Ford, July 30, at 7
p.m., in the Peristyle.
Puppeteer Hobey Ford
performs in full view as storyteller, puppeteer and animator in a seamless and
almost hypnotic dance between the puppeteer, puppets and original artistic
scenery. In his performance
of “Migration,” he tells the
story of Beatriz, a girl who
journeys with her family
from her home in Mexico to
the United States. Ford turns
to the natural world of animals to explore the wonders
of migration as they are
learned through the eyes of
a child making her own migratory journey.

8:30 p.m., on the Peristyle

Zoo, Sidecut Metropark, and

among other locations.
Ms. Limpf uses various
angles, cropping techniques,
negative space and a keen eye
to force everyone to think
twice about what they consider beautiful. It is a vast collection of what everyone
should consider beautiful,
and each piece is worth a second or even third look.
The titles of each piece are
even more fun and add to the
overall appeal of the photographs from puns, sarcasm to
text message slang.
Ms. Limpf is a photographer living in Northwood.
She has been taking photographs since the age of 15
when she took a class at Girl
Scout camp. She was published on the Vogue Italy
website in December of 2013.
She does wedding and other
event photography in addition
to her job as a nursing assistant. She enjoys all types of
photography but feels she is
strongest at portraits and animal photographs. She takes
an unconventional view of
photography and challenges
others to try various angles,
cropping techniques and
using negative space to
change the view of what a
photograph can be.
Sylvania to host Pizza Palooza July 24, 25
The Sylvania Area Chamber of Commerce and the
Sylvania Area Joint Recreation District will present
“Pizza Palooza” July 24 and
25 at Centennial Terrace,
5773 Centennial Road, Sylvania. Times for the event are
5 to 11:30 p.m. Friday, July
24, and 4 to 11:30 p.m., Saturday, July 25.
More than 12,000 guests
are expected to vote for their
favorite pizza restaurant in
this annual contest, sponsored this year by Kistler
Ford.
The competion features
people’s choice and judge’s
awards. The 10 pizza vendors
vying for the best pizza
restaurant in northwest Ohio
and Sofo’s trophies include
Amie’s Pizza, Bambino’s
Pizza, Charlie’s Pizza, JCups Pizza, Jet’s Pizza, JoJo’s Pizzeria, Mama Mary’s,
Pizza Papalis of Toledo, PizzAroma, and Vito’s Pizza.
Pizza will be professionally judged on Friday with
winners announced at 8 p.m.
People’s choice winners will
be announced on July 25, at
9 p.m. Additionally, media
chefs and business leaders
will vye for corporate/media
trophies.
New this year is an app to
simplify the people’s choice
voting process. Chamber
member Don Miller of
GroundSpeed™ developed a
plan to streamline voting by
eliminating the paper ballot.
Attendees can vote via the
app on their iPhone/Android
or through polling stations on
the premises.
In addition to pizza, patrons will enjoy musical entertainment. Performing on
Friday will be Arctic Clam,
the Grape Smugglers and
Last Born Sons. Saturday
performances include Distant
Cousinz, the Eight-Fifteens
and A Bunch of Yahoos.
Children’s
activities,
sponsored by Over the Rainbow Early Learning Center,
will take place from 5 to 9
p.m. each day and will feature clowns, face painting
and activities from Imagination Station, YMCA/JCC,
Toledo Zoo, Salon Institute
TIGI Creative School, Over
the Rainbow Early Learning
Center and Bouncy Thing.
Admission is $6 for
adults, $4 for children 5-12
and children 4 and under are
free. Pizza vendors will be
selling pizza for $1.50 to $2
a slice. Advance tickets are
available at Metamora State
Bank and the Sylvania Area
Chamber of Commerce office.
Funds raised from the
summer event benefit the
Sylvania Area Chamber of
Commerce and the Sylvania
Area Joint Recreation District for education and beautification projects.
