Austintown Fitch Promotes Inclusive Culture
Austintown Fitch is adding
a new group to the high
school’s list of extracurricular
activities with the introduction
of Link Crew.
Link Crew is a high school
transition program that welcomes freshman and makes
them feel comfortable throughout the first year of their high
school experience. This group is
built on the belief that students
can help students succeed.
Next year’s juniors and
seniors went through a mentor
training program to be a Link
Crew Leader for the 2016-2017
school year and will participate
in the year-long transition plan
to help Freshman. There are
four main components in the
year long program which include: High School Orientation,
Academic Follow Ups, Social
Follow Ups, and Leader Initiated Contacts.
Transitioning to high
school can be overwhelming;
Link Crew is meant to provide
some ease in the transition.
Studies show that if students
have a positive experience their
first year in high school, their
chance for success increases a
great deal. Also, by creating
real bonds between mentors
and freshmen, Link Crew has
helped to reduce bullying.

The Trumbull Memorial Health Foundation announced scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 to

than those of Ohio and the

Trumbull Offers
Grant Workshop
With more than 5,000
grantmaking organizations in
Ohio, nonprofits and agencies
should discover ample opportunities to fund programs
and services. However, according to David Holmes,
Cleveland Lead of Foundation Center Midwest,
“Smaller organizations may
overlook grants and foundations as a source of funding
because the process can seem
overwhelming. Grantseeking
is really about making connections.”
To help make those connections, the Grant Information Center at Kent State
University at Trumbull will
offer “Introduction to Proposal Writing” with a “Meet
the Grantmakers” panel discussion from 9:30 a.m. to
12:15 p.m. on Tuesday, June
28 at Kent State University at
Trumbull’s Technology
Building (Room 117), located
at 4314 Mahoning Ave. NW
in Warren. The workshop
will demonstrate the basic
elements of a proposal, the
“do’s” and “don’ts” of writing and submitting a proposal, and follow-up procedures.
Panelists include representatives from The Youngstown Foundation and the
Community Foundation of
the Mahoning Valley.
The workshop is free
and open to the public. However, space is limited. Participants must register by calling
216-861-1933 x325 or online at
http://grantspace.org/
training/calendar/
cleveland/introduction-toproposal-writing-2016-06-28warren-oh. Eligible attendees
can earn 1.5 CFRE education
credits.
Parking for the event is
free.

Poland Historical Society Trustee had the honor of assisting Andy

center of Poland Township. Photo by Laurie Fox.
A new Ohio Historical Marker, sponsored by the
Poland Historical Society, Poland Village, and The
Ohio History Connection, will be unveiled on Saturday,
June 25th, during “Celebrate Poland” festivities. The
dedication program begins at 11:00 am at the Gazebo
next to Poland’s Town Hall. This is the seventh historical marker in Poland and commemorates the incorporation of Poland Village in 1866 and also the Town Hall
which was built as a private residence in 1845. Poland’s
history of early settlers in Poland dates back to 1796.
Poland residents are proud of the long history and the
many generations that continue to live in this town.
They continue to preserve their history and maintain its
historical quality for future generations.
Following the dedication program, be sure to
stop by the Historical Society’s tent near the Town
Hall to view some items from Poland’s historical past.
The Historical Society will also have “Poland Historical Highlights” books for sale ($10 for reprint of book
published in 1966, $15 for new book covering some of
Poland’s history over the past 50 years).
On Saturday, May 14, 2016, the Poland Historical
Society hosted the unveiling and dedication of Poland’s sixth Ohio Historical Marker and the 43rd
marker in Mahoning County. One side of the marker
commemorates Poland Township as the first township surveyed in the New Connecticut Western Reserve and the other side is dedicated to the Little Red
Schoolhouse as a 19th century one-room school building. The marker is sponsored by the Poland Historical
Society, Poland Township Trustees, and the Ohio History Connection. This is the 6th historical marker in
Poland and 43rd marker in Mahoning County.

Ohio EPA Announces Statewide
Mosquito Control Grants
June 23, 2016
Ohio EPA Director Craig W. Butler and State Medical
Director Mary DiOrio (Ohio Department of Health) were
in Warren (Trumbull County) Thursday to announce
funding for community health departments and related
public entities to help mitigate the spread of mosquitoborne viruses such as Zika, West Nile or La Cross Encephalitis.
The plan set forth by Trumbull County Combined
Health District is particularly significant because of their
collaborating efforts with the cities of Warren, Cortland
and Newton Falls, along with Howland, Bazetta and
Champion townships.
The Ohio EPA grants specifically will be targeted
toward mosquito surveillance, larval control, adult mosquito control such as spraying where mosquito presence
poses a risk to public health, community outreach, and
breeding source reduction, including trash or tire removal, as well as other possible proposed activities.
The grants totaling approximately $250,000 are being
issued in eighteen counties are being made available in
collaboration and support of the Ohio Department of
Health’s larger efforts to mitigate the potential for an outbreak of mosquito-borne viruses.

professional development
seminars presented by Mahoning County Juvenile
Court, created to provide
insight for counselors, social
workers, therapists and the

Addiction“ on June 30th , at
Drake’s Landing. The daylong seminar is sponsored
by the Mahoning County
Juvenile Court Advisory
Board Inc., the Mahoning
County Mental Health &
Recovery Board, The DeBartolo Corporation and The
Albert and Suzanne Cinelli
Family Foundation.
Dr. Brad Lander,
Ph.D., LIDCDC, Clinical
Director of the Addiction
Medicine Department at
The Ohio State University
Wexner Medical Center
will serve as the featured
presenter. Dr. Alder will
aide participants in understanding the complex factors that both influence and
impact the development of
addiction and treatment
approaches aimed at addressing substance abuse.
Specific focus related to use
of Medication Assisted
Therapies (MAT) will be
provided. Dr. Lander will
explore the impact of drug
use on the brain and behavior, examine the physiology
of how drug and alcohol
use commonly becomes
addiction and explain the
role of genetics in addiction
and mental illness. Dr.
Lander has served in a variety of chemical and mental health positions
throughout his distinguished career having
earned the President’s
Award for Outstanding
Service in the Field of Substance Abuse and the 2010

In addition, Georgia
Smith, LPC , LSW, Adjunct
Professor at Kent State University Columbiana County
Campus in the Human Services and Human Development /Family Studies program will present on, “The
Impact of Addiction on Families” Angela
DiVitoMcClellan, MSOL, OCPS-II ,
Director of the Coalition for
a Drug Free Mahoning
County, will explore the
impact of marijuana legislation, citing the direct effects
on society and justice systems that have passed legislation.
Mahoning County Juvenile Court Judge Theresa
Dellick
encourages,
“Anyone interested in learning more about addiction
and the impact a parent’s
addiction has on the family
unit and behavior of children, would benefit from
attending. With the prevalence of addicted populations, as professionals we
need to do everything possible to expand our
knowledge and increase our
abilities to intervene with
effective treatment options.
Addiction often leads to
delinquent behaviors and
left untreated can evolve into
criminal behavior. Research
has shown that it is far less
costly and society benefits
most by providing treatment
rather opting for incarceration. “
Enrollment is limited.
The cost is $50 per person
and includes a continental
breakfast and buffet lunch.
Registration opens at
8:00am. Program is from
8:30am to 4:00pm. The program is certified for the following: Counselors and Social Workers are eligible for

Geauga Park District Announces
Youth Fishing Derby
Love a good challenge – and a good excuse to hang the
Gone Fishin’ sign? Geauga Park District welcomes kids 17
and younger to try their poles at catching 50 numbered fish
as part of our 2016 Youth Fishing Derby. Tagged largemouth bass were divided evenly between Big Creek Park’s
Wild Goose Pond and Swine Creek Reservation’s lodge
pond the morning of Tuesday, June 7. To collect your winnings, simply snap a picture of your numbered tag, and a
picture of yourself with your fish, then email them to [email protected]. Winners will receive a prize,
and five big winners will also receive $50 gift cards!
Fishing is one of the most popular recreational activities
in Geauga Park District, said John Oros, executive director,
preceded only by walking among favorite activities surveyed by rangers in 2015. The request for more fishing and
pond stocking was also the most requested activity in 2015.
“When it comes to accessibility to vibrant fish and
fisheries in your parks, we are listening,” Oros said. “We
continue to stock our ponds with a variety of fish to
maintain a healthy aquatic system while providing an
enjoyable fishing experience. What better way to show
our gratitude to Geauga County families than to provide
this fishing contest for all of our park-loving county kids.
“Come Home to Big Creek Park or Swine Creek Reservation to try your hand at catching one of these lucky fish.”
The first angler to cash any single tagged fish is the winner of the prize associated with that fish; the same fish cannot
be caught again for a prize. For a list of tagged fish and corresponding winners, http://bit.ly/gpdwhatsnew.
Geauga Park District is grateful for the prize donations of Geauga County Juvenile/Probate Court Judge
Tim Grendell; Tim Lennon of Lennon Machinery; and
Geauga County Commissioner Ralph Spidalieri of Great
Lakes Outdoor Supply.

of fun: amazing music and gallons of gloriously colored
paint At each interval along the course, CB5K crew blast each
participant with non-toxic, hypoallergenic, washable, waterbased paint from the sidelines. Aside from this amazing twist
on the typical 5K guests will be treated to an interactive preparty and post-party at the fully branded CB5K stage with

Temperatures are rising,
Warm breezes stir the trees,
And I can set my schedule
With freedom as I please.
If you haven’t caught the “Cleveland Cavaliers Fever”
then you probably aren’t a sports fan at all. It has been an
amazing run for the team and though it is a professional
sport with lots of money involved for each of the players, the
outcome remains the same which is that of hard work, determination, and pride of accomplishment. If you were able to
watch the final game and the reaction of all the players it
seems that no matter how old these “young men” are or how
talented they are at the game of basketball the final outcome
reminds one of any high school team that has given their all
to become winners. It was in those great moments of finally
realizing their dream of winning the victory they achieved
that you realized how dedicated the team is to the sport itself,
to each other, and to the fan support they have created. The
State of Ohio, not just Cleveland, needed a “win” in their
column for a change. Take time to enjoy with the team,
Cleveland, and Ohio the feeling of pride, accomplishment,
and achievement. It is something that each of us can enjoy.
That feeling of being at the top and being the best is something each of us can appreciate and applaud even for a brief
moment in time. Congratulations to the Cav’s and to all their
loyal fans.
A “Salute to America Concert and Service” will be held
at the Girard First United Methodist Church on Sunday, June
26th, at 9:30 a.m. in the church sanctuary with the Girard
Community SwingTime Band playing a variety of Patriotic
Music to begin a celebration of the Fourth of July a little early.
The service focuses on the music selections the band plays
with conductor John Yaksich followed by an “indoor picnic”
in Fellowship Hall of the church following the service. All are
invited to attend. The Community and area residents are
invited to attend the service and wear red, white, and blue if
possible in honor of this special service to commemorate our
Independence Day Celebrations. Pastor Vicky Kelly will deliver the message in keeping with the theme of the morning.
Community Vacation Bible School is finally here. VBS
runs from June 27th through July 1st and will be held at St.
Rose School on Main Street in Girard. This is open to children
4 years of age through the 5th grade (last year attended n
school) and is entitled “Deep Sea Discovery: learning how
God is with us always.” Programs, activities, and decorations
will be structured for the week with the “Deep Sea Discovery” theme. Vacation Bible School is from 9 a.m. to 12 noon
each day. The Community Service Project for the VBS week
is a collection of school items to be donated by participants
for families of The Emmanuel Community Care Center. Supplies will be distributed at the beginning of the school year to
local children in need of assistance. Monetary donations to
buy needed supplies will also be accepted. There is a $5 registration fee per child for Vacation Bible School to cover the
cost of materials for each child which includes a T-Shirt and
music as well as other materials. A music presentation will
be performed on the final day open to the public to attend.
Call Sister Kathleen at 330-545-4351 for more information.
Registration forms can be found in the Girard churches, the
Girard Free Library on Prospect Street, or by contacting St.
Rose Rectory. Forms will also be available the first day of
Bible School. If money is a problem, please call Sister Kathleen. No child will be turned away and registration can be
done the first day of VBS.
Vacation Bible School usually has an attendance of over
100 kids of all ages and much help is needed from volunteers
ages 6th grade through adults. All meetings are in St. Rose
School. Decorating began on Friday, June 17th, and painting
and decorations will be continuing through Thursday, June
23rd, at 2 p.m., and Friday, June 24th, at 9 a.m. at St. Rose
School. All sessions need volunteers to help. Call the St. Rose
Rectory at 330-545-4351 to volunteer or just go to one of the
sessions to lend a helping hand.

Trustees Appoint Replacement Columbiana Hires New
for Trustee Gleydura
Boys Basketball Coach
Hubbard Township Trustees Tom Jacobs and Fred
Hanley met in public session on Monday, June 13, 2016
at Hubbard Township’s monthly business meeting to
consider the five (5) individuals that submitted letters
of interest for the open trustee position following the
death of long time Hubbard Township Trustee, Joseph
Gleydura. Trustee Gleydura passed away on May 22,
2016, after losing a battle with cancer. Trustee
Gleydura served his community for over 24 years and
was very instrumental in forming the Eagle Joint Fire
District and establishing Trumbull County 911 service
to all of Trumbull County. Filling his shoes was a major undertaking but the trustees were very fortunate in
having five very qualified township residents to
choose from. Trustees voted to appoint former Hubbard Township Trustee Jonathan Dowell, of Bell Wick
Road, over a field of four others: Rick Hernandez, Jr.,
Jeffrey Rowlands, Jason Tedrow, and Lawrence Wilson. Dowell will complete the unexpired term of Joe
Gleydura ending on December 31, 2017.

Columbiana High School has a new boys basketball
head coach. The Board of Education voted to hire Todd
Johnson to lead the Clippers on the Court next school
year.
Johnson is a Columbiana 2001
graduate, and has spent the last decade coaching boys basketball from
7th grade to high school in several
Columbiana County School Districts.
The last three years, he was the Assistant Varsity Boys Basketball Coach
at Lisbon David Anderson High
School.
Coach Johnson says he’s grateful
for the opportunity to coach the Clippers and he looks forward to building a program by instituting some new youth programs in
Columbiana School District. “We will start with our K-3rd
grade kids and our dribble program as well as having
youth camps for boys in grades K-6th grade. We want our
kids learning the fundamentals of the game at an early
age and playing through their elementary years so when
they start junior high basketball, the boys will have a
good grasp on the fundamentals of the game but more
importantly develop a love for the game of basketball,”
said Johnson. “As an alumni, I am excited to build on the
tradition of Columbiana basketball!”

The non-profit Canfield
Historical Society, in keeping with its mission to preserve the historic Mahoning
Dispatch Building, now
utilized as the Mahoning
Dispatch Museum on the
Green, has launched a fundraising campaign to restore
the facade of the 1865 structure. The first fundraising
event will be Saturday, June
25 from 2:00 to 6:00 pm at
the Mahoning Dispatch
museum. The event, entitled
"Fowler Ford" Open House,
is in remembrance of Ralph
Fowler. Mr. Fowler owned
one of the first Ford dealerships in Canfield and was
third generation publisher
of the Mahoning Dispatch
newspaper.
The event will offer
tours of the historic newspaper business, which was
established in 1877 as the
area’s weekly newspaper
and was in operation for 91
years. It was owned by three
generations of the Fowler
family. The interior of the
building has remained virtually untouched, as have the
four historic machines still
on site, which include a Linotype, a Heidelberg Windmill, a Platen Press and the
newspaper’s oldest press, a
Contributed Photo.
Campbell Flat Bed. A special
offering at this open house
will feature a display of six
decades of automobile advertising from the Mahoning Dispatch newspaper:
1910 through the 1960s.
Classic and antique car
owners are invited to bring
a car to show and receive
free admission to the museum. A $5 donation will be
asked from visitors to help
in the restoration efforts.
The Mahoning Dispatch
Museum on the Green is
located at 21 S. Broad St.,
Canfield. The event is open
and appropriate for all ages.
If you need additional information call the Canfield
Historical Society at 330-533
-3458.
The fundraising efforts
will continue in the fall with
a Memory Walk, "Canfield
through the Years". This
living history walk is slated
for September 24th and October 8th. More information
will be released as it becomes available.

“Best of The
Best”
10 Years
Youngstown State University has renewed a partnership with Lunghwa University in Taipei, Taiwan, that
promises to create more opportunities for YSU faculty
and students to teach and
study abroad.
The historic Pollock
House on the YSU campus
was the setting for a ceremony formalizing the agreement
today, Wednesday, May 25.
Lunghwa Vice President Dr.
Rujen Lin and her assistant,
Feihsin Huang, represented
the private science and technology university; YSU Presi-
dent James Tressel, Provost
Martin Abraham and Nathan
R. Myers, who recently assumed the position of associate provost in the Center for
International Studies and
Programs, represented YSU.
Other special guests included diplomat David
Dong, acting director of the
educational division of the
Taiwan Economic and Cultural Office in Chicago, and
Florence Wang of Canfield,
who has been instrumental in
developing YSU’s relationship with Lunghwa University.
“An agreement like this
is a win-win for everyone
involved,” said Myers. “It
helps to make our campus
more diverse; it opens opportunities for our students and
faculty to study and work
overseas; and it enhances
YSU’s global brand.”
YSU first signed a faculty
and student exchange agreement with Lunghwa in 2006,
and Myers said both schools
hosted students in the years
that followed. Several faculty
members from both schools
spent semesters as exchange
professors, including YSU
English faculty Linda Strom,
Steven Brown and Barbara
Nykiel-Herbert.
The agreement with
Lunghwa had expired, before
the recent signing, and the
last two-way exchange of
students and faculty was in
2013. “The administration of
YSU has resolved to renew
the agreement and begin
building on the relationship
that YSU and Lunghwa started,” Myers said.
YSU has faculty and
student exchange agreements
with two other schools – the
University of Jyväskylä in
Finland and Yeditepe University in Turkey. The university
expects to have close to 400
international students on
campus in the fall, representing more than 50 countries,
said Myers, and averages
about 140 YSU students studying abroad each semester.
Pawz 2 Adopt is having a Yappy Hour on Saturday, June 25 at the Austintown Quaker Steak & Lube
11-3. Bring your dogs and
come and meet ours. Can't
wait to see everyone there.

LAW CAPSULES
HOW LONG CAN CLAIMS BE FILED AFTER A DEATH?
Ohio recognizes that families cannot wait forever to know that
all bills and claims have been submitted after a death. Revised
Code 2117.06 requires all creditor’s claims to be filed with the
executor or administrator or the court within six months after the
date of death whether or not the creditor is aware of the death.
Sometimes an estate may not be filed immediately if there are
substantial debts that cannot be paid. A creditor can file an estate if
the family does not file one to preserve it’s rights. But until there
is a fiduciary appointed, a formal claim cannot be filed and the
claim may not be enforceable. Of course, if there another person
directly liable on the debt, that person cannot avoid the claim. The
family should not pay the bills of a decedent without first checking
with an attorney as they may have no personal liability.

Phantom Fireworks reminds
community to be considerate
with fireworks this summer
As the Independence Day holiday approaches, Phantom Fireworks would like to remind its customers,
friends, and all those who use consumer fireworks to be
mindful of the fact that some veterans can be startled and
upset by the noise of fireworks.
Chesey Zoldan, M.S. Ed., a licensed Clinical Mental
Health Counselor and special consultant to Phantom Fireworks, advices that there is the potential for some veterans
to be reminded of combat situations when they hear the
loud sounds of gunfire and/or fireworks.
Combat veteran Henry Jiminez, on a broadcast news
piece aired on KABB-TV in San Antonio, indicated that he
found the unexpected blasts to be the worst. He said
sometimes upon hearing the unexpected fireworks blasts,
he drops down and puts his hands over his head.
Ms. Zoldan indicated that the startle of the unexpected fireworks booms can cause some veterans increased anxiety, which could be difficult and challenging
to them.
Phantom Fireworks suggests that those who intend to
shoot off consumer fireworks in a neighborhood should
contact their neighbors to let them know what they plan to
do so those combat veterans who might be affected by the
fireworks have the opportunity to take steps to avoid the
unintended consequences.
Some veterans actually put signs in their front yards
asking for consideration from neighbors when using fireworks. Signs for veterans are available at http://
www.militarywithptsd.org/shop/veteran-firework-sign/.
According to Ms. Zoldan, the bottom line is that giving veterans a heads up that you will be lighting fireworks
seems to be the most helpful. Vets aren’t necessarily
scared of or by the noises, but the unexpectedness can
trigger unwanted symptoms and distress.
Please enjoy the Independence Day holiday safely,
and please show courtesy to those military veterans who
served so your freedoms could be protected.

Deuteronomy
Suggested study materials: an Old Testament, a Bible
dictionary, a map of the Holy Land, and a journal for taking
notes.
Safe on the other side of the Red Sea the Israelites began to complain about the living conditions. God provided
manna each morning except the Sabbath. They continued
their forty-year journey through the wilderness to their
“promised land.” Yes, it took forty years! Moses always
made certain God was given credit for blessings and victories so that he was not to become idolized as their leader.
Do you and I do the same? All glory should be to God not
to us. As the clan traveled God provided for a systematic
plan of worship to himself with the tabernacle and the
priesthood with Aaron as the first High Priest. The ten
commandments and laws of how to live as an individual
and a community were given to Moses. Many times the
people tired of wandering and complained and conspired.
During a need for water God instructed Moses to tell a
rock to bring forth water, BUT he struck the rock with his
rod and yelled to the people as water flowed. A great price
was to be paid for this act. Moses led the people with humbleness and prepared them to govern and protect themselves. Seventy elders were appointed and Joshua was chosen to succeed Moses.
As the time grew near for Israel to enter Canaan they
feared that the environment and/or the population would
be hostile to them. Spies were sent to survey the area and
returned with stories of the land God promised them.
Moses is now 120 years old with his eyesight and
strength unimpaired, BUT the time was near for him to
die. Death was well known to Moses because all the original adults except him had died since leaving Egypt making the Israelite residents of Canaan the subsequent generations.
Remember the water from the rock that was struck by
Moses years before? God had scolded him for not speaking to the rock and told him he would not enter into Canaan. Several times Moses tried to bargain with God to
change his mind, but God did not. Moses climbed the
mountain and looked over into the Promised Land. He
died and was buried by God so that there would be no
shrine of worship.
Life brought many challenges to Moses. Life will also
bring challenges to your life, and you will have to choose
between right and wrong, between the narrow and the
wide road, and between God and Satan. Seek and choose
God’s will and live in His promised place, Heaven.

The Bard is in charge in Chardon for the next two
weeks. In cooperation with the Chardon Arts Jam, a one day
festival celebrating the arts on Chardon Square June 25 from
noon to 9pm, Geauga Lyric Theater will perform 2 weekends
of Shakespeare comedies.
On June 25 and July 1, Director Mark Cipra will present
Twelfth Night, Shakespeare’s comedy of gender confusion,
in which a girl disguises herself as a man to be near the count
she adores, only to be pursued by the woman he loves!
On June 26th and July 2nd, Director Angela MiloroHansen will be offering As You Like It, a favorite romantic
comedy. Banished by her uncle to the Forest of Arden, a
young woman disguises herself as a man and puts her
would-be husband to the test, discovering both her partner
and herself in an instant.
Both productions are full of laughs, and tickets are only
$6. Casts include some GLTG regulars, people new to the
theater and some Renaissance Fair folks. A little sword
fighting and a lot of romance for a summer night!
Tickets can be purchased online at www.geaugatheater.org
or by calling the box office at 440-286-2255. Geauga Lyric Theater is located on the beautiful Chardon square at 101 Water
Street., Chardon.
YSU Summer Festival of the
Arts Seeks Volunteers
The 18th annual Summer Festival of the Arts, scheduled
for July 9 and 10 at and around Youngstown State University, is seeking volunteers for the event.
Volunteers are needed for artist registration; information
booths; in the children's hands-on art tent; for technical assistance at performance sites and at the Festival of Nations international area, among others. Various shifts are available
for the two-day event. Each volunteer receives a Festival tee
shirt, cold water and reserved free parking. Lori A. Factor,
Festival coordinator, said, "Each year our volunteers are complimented on their knowledge, enthusiasm and professionalism. Our volunteers are crucial to the festival's success and
offer a personal touch to make this event successful."
Those needing service hours logged, such as that for
National Honor Society, sorority or fraternity service, may
also participate. Service verification forms will be completed.
Factor noted, “National Honor Society service hours begin
for many schools during the summer. This is a wonderful
way to get in those needed hours, and we will gladly complete any paperwork for students.”
Interested individuals or teachers advising service
organizations may obtain an application by calling 330941-2307, emailing [email protected] or logging on to

he will warm up and show
you how sweet he is! Joey’s
adoption fee is $20.15 and

Prayer Shawl Ministry of Unity
Centre offers Free Knitting Class
The Prayer Shawl Ministry of the Unity Centre for Spiritual Living is conducting a free knitting class Saturday, June
25th, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Tea Garden in Packard
Park in Warren. (The Tea Garden is located by the footbridge
inside the park). The program is entitled “When Life Gives
you Lemons.” Along with showing and sharing knitting and
crocheting basics, the group will be knitting “stress ball” lemons to be given away free and discussing how “yarn arts”
can help people focus, relax and improve concentration and
self-esteem.
When asked about the therapeutic value of knitting Patricia Williams Jones, chairperson for the PSM, referred to a
section of an article from the November, 2013 issue of Psychology Today entitled “Should you Knit?” “The rhythmic
repetitive movements seem to put us in the present moment,
distracting us from mulling over the past or fear of the future. The relaxation response is known to bring down blood
pressure, heart rate and help to prevent stress related illnesses.”
For additional information regarding the class contact
the Unity Centre at 330-539-0122.

Everyone’s stories matters is a reoccurring theme in Mrs.
Sabrina Eaton’s class and this month students heard from
Judge Robert Rusu. Judge Rusu is a graduate of Canfield
High School and obtained his undergraduate degree from
Youngstown State University. The class has heard stories all
year from everyday people in our community. Sabrina
Eaton, teacher says, “I was inspired by the Humans of New
York bestselling book, it chronicles everyday people and the
stories behind them.
Upton House is located on 380 Mahoning Avenue
NW in Warren . The first open house was Sunday, June 5.
Admission is free and visitors will be able to view 3 new
rooms, never before seen by the public. The home and
grounds are immaculate due to the volunteers who work
year-round on the home of suffragette, Harriet Taylor
Upton. Upton Association also attends to the Women's
Park on Mahoning Avenue, a popular place to rest, have
lunch or take photos. Anyone interested in renting Upton
House, having a private tour of the home or purchasing a
brick for the women's park should call 330-395-1840. For
more information, visit the web at www.uptonhouse.org.

Gallavantin’
Girard First United Methodist Church is starting a new
Summer Program entitled “MAD CAMP: Building Confidence with Music and Drama.” This program is open to students in grades Kindergarten through the 8th grade. The
director is Alyssa (Dibernardi) Carbon, a member of the
church and a 5th grade teacher at Girard Intermediate
School, who will be teaching students during the two week
camp, July 11th through July 15th and July 18th through July
22nd, through a show called “We Are Monsters.” The show
will be performed on Friday and Sunday following the
Camp. The cost per student is $75 each with scholarships
available for students through the church. For information
call the church office at 330-545-4361 and contact Karen Fisher, church secretary and committee member for the MAD
CAMP. Registrations can be completed on line:
www.GirardFirstUMC.org or by calling the church office.
This is non-denominational and all invited to attend.
The Girard Historical Society has the Barnhisel
House Museum opened for guided tours on the 2nd and
4th Sunday of every month from 1 to 4 p.m. The museum, located on State Street, Route 422, in Girard, is a restored 1840’s home with memorabilia of the Girard and
Western Reserve area. Each summer, the Society selects a
special theme and this year it is “A History of Sports
from Girard and the area.” Along with the traditional
displays of pictures and artifacts that are in the museum
all year long, additional pictures and information about
Sports Teams and Individuals who have contributed to
the history of Girard will be on display. Uniforms, equipment, information, pictures, and more have been placed
on display either given to the Museum or On Lend for
the summer months from athletes or their families. There
is a small donation asked when you take the guided tour
through the restored home which is used for the upkeep
of the museum. Private tours for family reunions, class
reunions, other groups, or individuals can also be arranged by contacting the Historical Society President
Roberta Lawrentz at 330-883-3847, or Vice-President Colette Chuey at 330-307-5388. Two items on display in the
Museum are a homemade quilt with tickets on sale and
raffle drawing to be held in December, and an historical
throw in black and white colors for purchase at $40 each
with historical pictures of Girard. The throws can be seen
also at the Girard Free Library or Girard’s Daffins Candy
Store in downtown Girard on Liberty Street. Call Roberta
or Colette to buy one. An old fashioned “Tea” will be
held at the house in October with tickets to go on sale
soon. Shirley Hunter can be contacted at 330-307-3448 for
information.
St. Rose Sunny Days pre-school is now accepting registration for the 2016-2017 school year. They offer before and
after school age care also. Sunny Days is a three star rated
center in Ohio’s Step Up to Quality rating system. Each classroom has an experienced, degreed teacher and the activities
planned align to the Ohio Early Learning Standards. Space is
limited and early registration is strongly recommended. The
school is located on Main Street in Girard as part of the St.
Rose School. Call 330-545-1490 for more information.
We are fortunate in Girard to have several pre-schools
including Great Beginnings at the Girard First United Methodist Church, another located in the former VFW building in
downtown Girard near the City Building, and several others
near the downtown area as well as a pre-school in the Prospect Elementary School Building as part of the Girard City
Schools programs. All are taking registration for the fall at
this time.
The Girard Free Library has many summer programs
for all ages of kids and adults to take part. Last Monday, a
session of reading with trained dogs was held for children
and “Some Bunny to Read With” is also on the calendar to be
held soon. Call Maria Selak at the children’s desk or pick up
a calendar of events on the Circulation Desk. The Summer
Reading Program is entitled “Exercise Your Mind: READ!”
As the Fourth of July Celebration approaches, I’m sure
that the Girard Intermediate School 6th graders will remember the wonderful experiences they had this past May as they
toured Washington D.C. Students were able to see the Smithsonian Institute Natural History Museum via Embassy Row
American History Museum, eat dinner in the Ronald Reagan
Building, see the Air Force Memorial, see the 911 Memorial
at the Pentagon, visit Ford’s Theater, take a picture stop at
The White House, take the United States Capitol Building
Tour, see the Iwo Jima Memorial, visit Arlington National
Cemetery, the Kennedy Gravesites, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and view the Changing of the Guards. Their
trip also included visiting the Lincoln, Vietnam, and Korean
Memorials, the World War II Memorial, FDR Memorial, and
the Martin Luther King Memorial. A visit to The Air and
Space Museum was also part of the trip along with several
other memorable experiences. It has become a tradition for
the 6th grade students to go to visit Washington D. C. and it
is something they will always remember.
Now That’s Gallavantin’
Disabilities
by Daniel J. Vance
NE Eye Doctor Opening People's Eyes
His disability forced a major career change, one that has
benefited thousands. Dr. John Shepherd since 2008 has been
director of the Weigel Williamson Center for Visual Rehabilitation at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. It's America's only low-vision clinic situated on a medical
center campus, drawing patients from all over the Midwest.
“Low vision” occurs when a person experiences a major, permanent reduction in visual function that eyeglasses
can't correct but special devises or aids can somewhat improve. The U.S. has more than 15 million people experiencing impaired vision. Shepherd's center (and others like it)
offer this population such things as computer enhancement
software, high-tech magnifiers, “talking” devices, and largeprint books, calculators, and clocks, and practical help making in-home modifications.
In a telephone interview, 51-year-old ophthalmologist
Shepherd said, “Because of chronic back and knee pain years
ago, I was no longer able to do eye surgeries. Eventually,
doctors were unable to fix my (back and knee) pain. I had to
learn to live with it. There was a grieving in the loss I had.
My passion for low-vision (work) arose out of this because it
had a parallel for me.”
As an ophthalmologist, Shepherd realized he couldn't
do much long-term to help people with chronic, irreversible
eye conditions, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma,
diabetic retinopathy, stroke or retinitis pigmentosa. And he
didn't have the low-vision training to help them live best
they could with those conditions. He eventually received the
training and accepted his current position, one that didn't
require him to do surgery.
He said, “We've helped over 3,500 people since 2008.
Our 'average' patient is in their 80s and has macular degeneration. We also help people with employment issues and children who need help with IEPs, for example.” The Center has
Nebraska and Iowa satellite locations. Shepherd regularly
speaks at American Academy of Ophthalmology meetings
and is a University of Nebraska Medical Center assistant
professor.
The U.S. doesn't have many low-vision clinics because
so few professionals have the training or a financial incentive
to enter the field. He said, “Evaluating low-vision is a timeconsuming endeavor. I usually spend at least an hour with
patients and see perhaps only five a day. Before coming here,
I used to see up to 30.” He said readers can learn more about
low-vision services by asking an eye doctor or their state
service for the blind or visually impaired.

“What’s wrong with the caterpillars? Why are pieces
falling off of them?”
If you’ve stopped by the youth services desk in the last
two weeks or if you’re following us on Twitter, you may have
noticed that the Garden Club is raising painted lady butterflies. Five of them have entered their chrysalis stage, but
when they were still caterpillars, we were noticing fuzzy
black bits at the bottom of their enclosure. Some patrons wondered if something was wrong.
As it turns out, the fuzzy black bits were totally normal.
Caterpillars are continuously growing and their exoskeletons
don’t grow with them, so they must molt. They shed their
head capsules first, followed by the rest of their skin, and are
usually very still when preparing for a molt. They’ll often eat
their old exoskeleton. We were just seeing the leftover pieces.
For more information, check out Myriam Baran’s Butterflies of the World or Paul Smart’s Illustrated Encyclopedia of
the Butterfly World, both of which are available here are the
library.

The Nice Guys Is A Fun Buddy Movie With A Throwback
To The 70’s
By Art Byrd
The Nice Guys is a throwback to the 70s and I really
mean a throwback to the 70s. The movie starts with the
pounding soundtrack of "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" by The
Temptations.
Los Angeles in the late 70’s is
the movie’s setting when the city
was going through a time of decay
and raunchiness.
An opening scene can set the
tone for the rest of a movie. The
Nice Guys’ opening scene works
really well. When a young boy
goes after a nudie magazine under
his parent’s bedroom in the middle
of the night. He is looking through
the magazine and sees the beautiful porn actress Misty Mountains
played by Murielle Telio as the
centerfold. Out the window in the
background of the boy’s house, a
car is crashing down the hill towards the house. The boy still
looking at the centerfold doesn’t notice the car until it barrels
through the house to the outside where it crashes into a tree.
The driver is ejected from the car. The boy comes upon
the driver's body and it is the actual Misty Mountains laying
on some rocks with her chest fully exposed. She says her
final words to the young shocked boy. As the police are approaching, the boy takes off his shirt and covers Misty up.
That was a nice touch by director Shane Black who wrote the
first Lethal Weapon (1984) movie. In 2013, he directed Iron
Man 3.
The Nice Guys stars Ryan Gosling as Holland March, a
private detective who is having more downs than up moments in his life after the death of his wife. He is trying to
raise his thirteen year old daughter, Holly played by Angourie Rice.
March is searching for a girl named Amelia played by
Margaret Qualley. His search brings enforcer Jack Healy
played by Russell Crowe to his door. He wants March to
stop looking for Amelia. In a very funny scene Healy breaks
March’s arm as he is protesting.
Jack thinks that March is stalking Amelia, but she is a
person of interest for a case that he's working on.
As they uncover more information about a criminal conspiracy that may involve Amelia and lots of people in power
within the Justice Department and car industry. Jack and
March decide to work together.
The buddy movie is a genre that always works if the
chemistry between the buddies is there. We saw it work with
Mel Gibson and Danny Glover in the Lethal Weapon series
in the 80‘s and 90‘s. Flashback to 1974 with a buddy movie
called Freebie And The Bean with Alan Arkin and James
Caan. They were totally two different corky guys who
turned out to be a dynamic crime fighting duo.
As for The Nice Guys, the chemistry between Gosling
and Crowe is amazing as they play off one another.
Black co-wrote the script with Anthony Bagarozzi. The
script is so well written with snappy dialogue and great action situations. There are many scenes that have unexpected
action and reactions with the actors and supporting cast that
make The Nice Guys work.
The Nice Guys has the humor of a comedy with the
slow pace of a crime being solved in a more serious film.
Young Holly is an important part of the crime being
solved as she deals with her friends, hired assassins and sleazy Hollywood people. Rice as Holly was awesome and I
hope to see her in other movies. We may see Rice in the next
The Nice Guys movie as the last scene in the movie between
Gosling and Crowe sets up for a sequel.
The Nice Guys is a must-see movie as there are lots of
laugh out loud moments. Gosling and Crowe are basically
nice guys in a sleazy world.
Deadpool is not the typical
superhero movie
By Art Byrd
I never read any of the
Deadpool comics. If they are
anything like the Deadpool
movie, they should be fun.
Deadpool could be considered an anti-hero movie
with the violence and profanity, but it still feels like a
superhero movie to me.
Yes, there is a villain.
Yes, there is a plot for revenge and justice. Of course,
there is a sexy girlfriend who
is in danger.
What makes a Deadpool
work is Ryan Reynolds.
Hands down.
He was funny, wisecracking and dispensing
some serious violence.
Deadpool is not for a
young audience with its
gross violence, profanity and
sexual references.
With all that going on,
Deadpool is a lot of fun. I like
the premise of the movie
with Wade Wilson played
by Reynolds is a former special forces member who
works as mercenary for hire
in New York City.
As a mercenary, he
helps people out such as a
young girl being stalked.
One scene, I like was
when a pizza delivery boy
delivers a pizza to a guy who
didn't order the pizza, but
Wade did. The guy does not
know Wade and is afraid
when Wade pulls out a gun.
Actually, Wade is after
someone else in the room. It
was a nice twist.
Later, Wade meets an
escort Vanessa played by
Morena Baccarin. Their
strange courtship is cute as
they are totally are made for
each other.
After a year together,
Wade proposes to Vanessa,
but he suddenly collapses.
He is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Vanessa stands
by his side yet Wade fears he
will lose her.
Another gem in this
movie is Weasel, Wade's best
friend played by T.J Miller.
He is totally honest with
a straight face. As he tells
Deadpool that he won’t help
him because he doesn’t want
to.
The plot continues as
Wade is approached by recruiter for a secret program
that may cure his cancer. At
first, Wade refuses.
Then looking at Vanessa
sleep, he decides to leave her
and undergo the procedure.
At this laboratory which
doesn't look very sanitary.
Wade meets Ajax played by
Ed Skrein. Ajax injects Wade
with a serum that is designed to awaken mutant
genes.
AJax and Angel Dust
played by Gina Carano torture Wade to induce stress
and set off the mutation
without much success.
In a funny moment,
Wade discover Ajax’s real
name which is Francis. In
response Ajax straps Wade
in airtight chamber which
raises and lowers the oxygen
level to keep Wade on the
verge of asphyxiation.
Captain America: Civil War
Gives The Audience All The
Action It Can Handle
By Art Byrd
Later, Wade develops a
healing factor for his cancer,
but leave him with a disfigured face and skin with mutant powers.
He escapes but after a
fight with Ajax where he
ends up impaled with a pole
and left for dead in a burning laboratory. Somehow
Wade survives. Wade tries to
approach Vanessa on the
street but he doesn't because
of his appearance.
Wade talks with Weasel
about hunting down Ajax for
a cure to his disfigurement.
Shortly later, Wade
tracks down Ajax to a convoy on the expressway as the
masked vigilante called
Deadpool.
He uses his acquired
skills and mutant strength to
kill all of the escorts and confronts Ajax.
Then, the confrontation
is interrupted by two X-Men,
Colossus, a huge metal man
and a punk teenager named
Negasonic Teenage Warhead with strange powers.
They have been trying
to get Deadpool to join the XMen. Their interference causes Ajax to escape.
Again, I don't consider
Deadpool, a typical superhero movie. He has superhero
qualities like helping people
then being skilled at killing
off bad guys.
Wade/Deadpool has
some issues going on such as
finding a cure for his disfigurement and getting his girl
back.
I enjoyed the fight/
action scenes that were narrated by Deadpool with
some snappy dialogue.
The great supporting
characters make a movie
work, I like T.J Miller as
Weasel and Leslie Uggams
as Blind Al, a blind woman
who becomes Deadpool’s
roommate.
They are very funny
together.
My favorite supporting
character in Deadpool was
Vanessa. She and Wade
make a great couple. When
she finds out about Wade’s
disfigurement, Vanessa did
something that was so wonderful. She just became my
favorite superhero girlfriend
forever.
Deadpool is simply a
fun movie with snappy dialogue, violent action and a
cool love story. A must-see if
you're over 18 years old.
Every May, there is a superhero movie from Marvel.
Last year, Avengers: Age of Ultron hit the theaters. This year, it
is Captain America: Civil War.
This is the third Captain America movie. Captain America: Civil
War is directed by Cleveland natives, Joe and Anthony Russo. They
directed Captain
America: The Winter Soldier.
The movie is based from the
Civil War comic book series. Captain
America: Civil War is a very good
movie with a mix of superheroes,
lots of action and tons of destruction.
The storyline begins in 1991.
Hydra, the evil organization from
the other Marvel movies are brainwashing Bucky Barnes (The Winter Soldier) played by Sebastian Stan in Siberia using simple words from a redbook. Later, he would intercept a car carrying a case of super–soldier
serum. He would kill the driver and passenger. That one act
leads to an interesting plot twist involving Tony Stark (Iron
Man).
The movie jumps to one year after the events that happened in Avengers: Age of Ultron such as the destruction and
killing of many people in Slovenia.
On another assignment, the Avengers are tracking
down Brock Rumlow played by Frank Gallo, a former commander of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s counter-terrorism team, who was
revealed to be an agent of Hydra. They are trying to stop him
from stealing a biological weapon from a lab in Lagos. After
an intense running chase, Rumlow is confronted by Captain
America played by Chris Evans and Wanda (Scarlet Witch)
played by Elizabeth Olson.
Rumlow tries to commit suicide with a bomb. Wanda
uses her powers to lift Rumlow in the sky as he sets off the
bomb. However, the bomb blasts strikes a nearby building
killing a large number of innocent people.
Later, at the Avengers headquarters, U.S Secretary of
State, Thaddeus Ross played by William Hurt, informs the
Avengers that the United Nations is preparing to pass the
Sokovia Accords, which would have an international governing body to oversee and control the Avengers.
The Avengers are divided with the terms of the accord.
Tony Stark played by Robert Downey Jr supports the accord
because he feels responsible creating Ultron and the destruction of Slovenia.
Captain America doesn't want the Avengers controlled
by outside forces. The Avengers take sides and this is where
Captain America: Civil War goes to a different level with the
story line. The situation forces the superheroes to fight
amongst themselves. One side with Iron Man and the other
side with Captain America which leads to some great car
chases, fight scenes and emotional moments.
I enjoyed how the Russo brothers took the time to introduce new characters like Spiderman (Tom Holland) and
Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) both who will star in
their own standalone Marvel movies in the future.
Captain America: Civil War got a little confusing with so
many superheroes in the mix.
The heroes included Ant-Man, The Falcon, Black Widow, Vision, Hawkeye and War Machine. I lost track of who
was on Team Iron Man or Team Captain America.
Since, I’ve read some of the Civil War comics. I have a
idea of what was going on and it is such an interesting storyline to register and control the superheroes. The big question
was who would be designated to be in control of the
Avengers.
As in most superhero movies from Marvel, there is a
setup for the next movies which is great because it will be
interesting to see how the Civil War storyline will play out.
All in all, Captain America: Civil War is a great movie
with all the action you can handle in one movie.

bench. Contributed Photo
On Wednesday, May 25 a memorial bench was placed
in the courtyard of Campbell Elementary & Middle School in
honor of Leigh Yallech.
Yallech was a teacher for Campbell City Schools for 17
years, before passing away suddenly from a stroke in October 2015. She was a dedicated teacher, friend, mother, wife
who loved the outdoors.
Shortly after her passing, the Leigh Yallech Memorial
Fund was started at Campbell Schools, which is made up of
teachers, staff and friends of Yallech to help keep her
memory alive. Money raised through the fund was used to
purchase a memorial bench from Bright Idea Shops, a company that specializes in memorial benches.
“We placed the bench in the Elementary/Middle School
Courtyard and the students brought flowers to plant in her
honor,” said Danielle Dill, a second grade teacher at Campbell. “We also had a picnic for the students as a dedication
and celebration of the new space.”
The Campbell PTO provided a magician for the students
to enjoy, as well as the food for the picnic.
Austintown Jr. Women’s
League Scholarship winners

were, jicama, asparagus, watermelon, cantaloupe, blackberries, blueberries, broccoli, and many more.
Food Service Supervisor Natalie Winkle is pleased by
how the kids are becoming more open minded through
these types of opportunities. “The students were very happy
with the taste test, one student told me ‘this is the best day
ever!’ When I hear the students say comments like that, it
makes me smile.”
The taste test was made possible with grant money from
Team Nutrition as well as through the help of the staff of the
Boardman Center Middle School cafeteria, who helped to
wash and cut up all the samples.

Sixteen Huntington bankers presented Junior Achievement’s (JA) “JA Our City” Program to every third grader in
Youngstown City Schools for a special JA Financial Literacy
Day on May 16, 2016. The “JA Our City” program introduces
students to the intersection of financial literacy and thirdgrade social studies learning objectives, including the characteristics of cities and how people and businesses in cities
manage their money. Over three-hundred and ninety students received this financial literacy program.
Students learned practical information about the zones
found within a city, examined the importance of money to a
city, including paying taxes, and how people use different
methods to pay for goods and services; the contributions of
financial institutions to a city and how they help businesses
and people achieve their economic goals; developed an understanding that entrepreneurs promote a healthy economy
within a city; and also compared news formats and examined their importance to the financial well-being of a city.
Colleen Kelly, director of development and funding for
the Youngstown Business Incubator, explained the various
function of the busy five building operation to the Austintown Friends of the Public Library. This unique operation
began in 1988 with the donation of one building, aiming at
the movement of the Valley from Rust Belt to Technology
Belt. Three principles have guided the group: innovation,
self-sufficiency, and engagement with the community. The
most famous tenant is Turning Technologies, but there are 14
other companies established and doing well in the cluster,
sharing each other's expertise and suggestions. They have
won awards as the #1 university affiliated technology facility
in the world in 2014, and the best in North America in 2015.
Kelly praised Jim Cossler and Mark Brown for their work in
building the success of the organization.

Trumbull SWCD Essay Contest
Winners Announced
The Trumbull Soil and Water Conservation District
(SWCD) is pleased to announce the winning entries in its
annual stewardship essay contests, open to all Trumbull
County public, parochial, and home-schooled students. We
All Need Trees was the theme for this year.
Trees are essential for living organisms. Through photosynthesis, trees convert the carbon dioxide (CO2) that mammals exhale into oxygen (O2) that we then breathe in. From a
conservation standpoint, trees are natural superheroes. Tree
roots stabilize the soil and prevent erosion. Trees improve
water quality by slowing and filtering rain water as well as
protect aquifers and watersheds. They filter our air supply
and keep it fresh, removing CO2 from the air when they perform photosynthesis. One hundred trees remove 53 tons of
carbon dioxide and 430 pounds of other air pollutants per
year.
Trees not only provide us with oxygen to breathe, shade
on a sunny day, or food products like fruits and nuts, but
they are also used to make many of the products we use every day. From paper products to finished furniture, trees have
many end uses--We All Need Trees.
Prizes for the essay contest were awarded in two divisions. Contest winners in the division for grades 6-8 were,
first place, Marcus Cupp of Lakeview High School, second
place, Elizabeth Potts from Howland Middle School, and
third place, Misty King, from Bristol. Cierra Burchett, a student from Labrae Middle School was awarded an Honorable
Mention.
In the high school division, first place was awarded to
Annelise Wallie, a home-schooled student from Southington.
Kelly Harrah, from Newton Falls High School, received second place and Kayla Somlitz, of Hubbard High School, was
the third place essay writer. Honorable Mention in this division went to Tessa Smith from Labrae High School.
Trumbull SWCD congratulates these students, as well as
the many others who participated, for their efforts. They now
know about the many ecological, economic, social and psychological benefits trees offer to humans and wildlife.

Newton Falls Kiwanis Club would like to thank everyone who pre-bought geraniums and those who bought flowers from us at the corner of Broad Street and River Street at
the old train station/barber shop. Bill Priddy permitted us to
use his property and we thank him. We sold out unexpectedly fast this year. The club appreciates those who said “keep

the proceeds have gone toward our two scholarships, which
were awarded to deserving Newton Falls seniors on May 17,
and to our junior Olympics event. Finally, thanks to Nussle

Zocolo named Boardman’s
New Director of Operations
Monday, May 23, the Boardman School Board unanimously approved longtime Boardman Coordinator of Special Education and Student Services Jack Zocolo, as Boardman School District’s new Director of Operations. He will fill the position vacated by
Tim Saxton, when Saxton becomes Boardman Superintendent August 1.
Director of Operations is a crucial part
of the Administrative Team in Boardman.
The Operations Director is responsible for
the safety and security of the district, overseeing Maintenance and Building, Food Service, and Transportation. The district spent
the past month reviewing resumes from
more than 20 applicants from Cleveland to New York City.
Experience ranged from building administrators, to current
and former superintendents.
Zocolo’s career in education started in Portsmouth, OH
in 1985, then onto Western Reserve Local in 1989, Mahoning
County Educational Service Center in 1991, Westerville City
in 1995 and eventually landed in Boardman as Coordinator
of Special Education in 1996. "Jack's organizational skills,
attention to detail and strong work ethic will greatly add to
his success as he enters this new area of administration,” said
incoming Superintendent Tim Saxton.
Zocolo resides in Boardman with his wife, Jacqui, a 1981
Boardman graduate. His children both graduated from
Boardman Schools, Chloe (2010) and Dominic (2013).
Zocolo states, “I am both honored and humbled in the
confidence the Board of Education and district staff have had
in my job performance and knowledge during my 19 years
as a District Administrator for Special Education. My job has
given me many cherished memories working with our district families of students with disabilities. I hope that I have
made a difference in guiding our district in meeting the educational needs of our special education students and reinforcing that special education is a ‘Service… not a Place’. I enter
this new chapter in my educational career with excitement
for new challenges and lots of Spartan Pride.”

There’s a tradition in Columbiana Exempted Village
Schools for 33 years now. The Joshua Dixon Elementary Staff
takes on the 4th graders in a friendly, yet competitive, kickball game in the final weeks of school. What has remained
the same every year: teachers were the winners.
The sun was shining and the smiles were big this week,
as a crowd of students turned out to cheer. Some support the
teachers...others root for their classmates, but of course it’s all
in fun! The score in this 33rd season was Teachers 10, Students 4.
“It’s an awesome tradition!” said Joshua Dixon Principal
Kim Sharshan. “In fact, I don’t recall a time when the teachers lost... and we get older, while they will always be 4th
graders. I’m lucky to have a mix including a young staff who
can ‘keep up’ with 9 and 10 year olds,” Sharshan said with a
smile.

YSU freezes tuition, fees,
and housing costs
Tuition, fees and housing costs will be frozen at current
levels for next academic year at Youngstown State University, maintaining the university’s status as the most affordable
public university in Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.
The YSU Board of Trustees’ Finance and Facilities Committee on Thursday approved a fiscal year 2017 budget that,
for the second consecutive year, includes no tuition increase
for undergraduate students. The full board will vote on the
resolution later this month.
Full-time tuition will remain at $8,087 a year for Ohio
residents, the lowest among the state’s largest public universities and nearly $1,600 below the statewide average.
In addition, full-time tuition for out-of-state undergraduate students living in the 22-county Affordable Tuition Advantage area in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New York
will remain at $8,327 a year. The rate is well below tuition at
competing universities in western Pennsylvania.
“In light of growing public concern over rising college
costs and student debt, YSU continues to work hard to keep
student expenses as low as possible and to position itself as
the most affordable quality option in the competitive state
and regional higher education marketplace,” YSU President
Jim Tressel said.
In addition to undergraduate tuition, the board voted to
freeze more than 100 other fees for next academic year, including lab and materials fees, parking permits, transportation fees and late fees.
Room and board fees for YSU residence halls also will
go unchanged for next academic year. The $8,990 annual
housing fee is the lowest, by as much as $3,000, among
Ohio’s comprehensive, four-year public universities.
Also, the budget expands YSU’s bulk tuition rate, saving
hundreds of students hundreds of dollars. Previously, undergraduate students could register for 12 to 16 credit hours
per semester and pay the one “bulk” tuition rate. Under the
new plan, the “bulk” rate is 12 to 18 credits. That means students can take two additional credit hours without any additional charge.
While tuition for undergraduates is staying the same,
rates for graduate students will increase 2.5 percent for next
academic year to $5,781 per semester.
The $169.8 million fiscal year operating budget approved by the board assumes stable enrollment and a 2.2
percent increase in state funding. It is YSU’s first operating
budget in five years without a structural operating deficit.
“Since 2012, when state funding support dropped
sharply and YSU’s student enrollment levels continued to
fall, the university experienced revenue shortfalls that outpaced efforts to reduce expenses,” said Neal McNally, vice
president for Finance and Business Operations. “But through
a combination of strategic investments in student recruitment, modest revenue enhancements, and spending reductions, the budget deficit has been erased.”
The board committee also on Thursday approved the
university’s efficiency review and implementation plan,
which includes dozens of recommendations on how to increase cost savings on campus.

Beaver Creek Wildlife Education Center Treasurer
Kathy Cattrel highlighted the many fascinating displays and
information available to our community on wildlife and natural resources and on environmental conservatism at the
May 3rd meeting of the Struthers Rotary Club. Ms. Cattrel
was hosted by Rotarian Kelly Becker and related her transformation from a biology and math teacher to a volunteer,
along with her husband Mitch, at the Wildlife Education
Center. The center originated through the efforts of Jim Kerr
in the vacant park ranger’s house at the site in 2000. Ms. Cattrel joined the center in 2001 and the group has grown steadily over the years with an improvement grant obtained in
2009 that allowed the space to be doubled. The installation of
a wildlife room with murals and animal displays are indicative of what might be found in the park. Recent grants and
donations, totaling $88,000 of a needed $100,000 will allow
the installation of yet another display room. A donation of
hunting trophy animals was recently made and requires the
additional space for suitable display. The group offers workshops and programs to assist in education, mostly for grade
school age children. An onsite library features 1000 naturerelated titles along with displays for specific animal and nature
groups. Located in East Liverpool, OH, Beaver Creek Wildlife
Education Center is open from 1-5pm on weekends or by appointment for special events or meetings. More information can
be found on the web at www.beavercreekwildlife.com, by email at [email protected] or on Facebook.
The Mahoning County Farm Bureau received $1,500.00
in grant funds from the Ohio County Farm Bureau’s 2016
Water Quality Initiative Grant Program to encourage soil
sampling prior to land applying fertilizers and/or nutrients.
The “Nutrient Management in the Upper Mill Creek Watershed: What our Soils Can Teach Us” project was one of 19
projects from around the state of Ohio to receive funds. The
Ohio EPA lists nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus,
as one of the top five aquatic life impairments in surface waters. Nutrients, when applied in excess and/or at the wrong
time, can enter surface waters during heavy rain events and
accelerate the formation of algal blooms. The Mahoning
County Farm Bureau and the Alliance for Watershed Action
and Resource Education (AWARE) are partnering with the
Ohio State University Extension Office, Eastgate Regional
Council of Governments, Mahoning County Engineers Office, and Mahoning Soil and Water Conservation District to
provide a better understanding of our local soils, what nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) are already in or are lacking
in soil, cost savings associated with soil testing prior to fertilizing.
The Mill Creek Watershed is 78.4 square miles, houses
approximately 96,000 residents, and traverses through diverse landscapes- rural lands in the upper/ headwaters region and urbanized areas in lower reaches. These diverse
watershed land uses contribute to the nutrient loads affecting
Mill Creek's water quality. This project will show how soil
sampling is one of the simplest and cost effective measure
landowners and farmers can perform to ensure they are protecting water quality and saving money before they begin
applying nutrients.
The Mahoning County Farm Bureau along with the
project's collaborators want to provide both agricultural and
residential landowners an educational background on proper nutrient management. Whether it is a landowner who
fertilizes their residential lawn or a farmer who spreads nutrients across their fields, proper nutrient management is
needed to improve water quality in the Mill Creek Watershed.

Spring Fling Raises Thousands
Northside Farmer’s Market
Celebrates 13th Anniversary
The Northside Farmer’s Market will celebrate thirteen
years of serving the Mahoning Valley this year with a newly
updated location at 135 Baldwin Avenue. The Market is located on the Lake to River Food Hub Campus (901 Elm) near
the corner of Elm Street and Baldwin Avenue two blocks
north of Youngstown State University and one block south of
Wick Park and is held weekly throughout the year from
10AM until 1PM.
The Market moved to its outdoor home on Saturday
June 4th. Vendors include Dandelion Lane Farm, GardenView Acres, Iron Roots Urban Farm, Carol’s Homemade
Baked Goods, Ginger Gorge Organics, Hellen Back Farms
and more.
Shoppers will find fresh greens, rhubarb, asparagus,
radishes and turnips, eggs, pasture-raised pork and poultry,
jellies, jams, honey and baked goods-the list grows as the
season progresses! The Big Green Thing- Better Food Truck
pulls up weekly as well.
“The market provides fruits and vegetables from area
farms and orchards, as well as urban farms from neighborhood growers throughout the city,” said Jim Converse, Market Manager. “By capturing food dollars for local growers,
the market has helped foster food-based economic development including the growth of the Lake-to-River Food Coop
online ordering system, which has grown into a kitchen incubator for value-added growers and will soon open a cooperatively owned grocery store on the North side.”
The Northside Farmer’s Market accepts EBT payment
and through generous funding from Mercy Health Foundation is able to “double up” the amount of EBT tokens spent at
the Farmer’s Market. WIC and Senior Nutrition coupons are
also accepted by some vendors.
The Northside Farmer’s Market, Youngstown’s oldest
farmer’s market, is a project of Common Wealth, Inc. and is held
weekly year-round except January. Products must be made or
grown by the seller and in accordance with local and state regulations. The Market contributes more than $40,000 annually to
the local economy, accepts SNAP and WIC coupons and welcomes a diverse community. For more information about the
Northside Farmer’s Market, please contact Jim Converse at 330518-6971 or [email protected]

Mahoning Valley-based Funders
commit $100,000 to Fund for
Our Economic Future
The Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley,
Trumbull 100, and The Youngstown Foundation are pleased
to announce a joint commitment of $100,000 over three years
to the Fund for Our Economic Future (the Fund), an alliance
of funders dedicated to advancing both economic growth
and increased access to opportunity for all residents of
Northeast Ohio. Each organization will provide 1/3rd of the
total commitment for a shared voting membership in the
Fund.
The Trumbull 100 has been a part of the Fund since
2009, while the Community Foundation is a past funder and
The Youngstown Foundation is new to the Fund. These funders join The Raymond John Wean Foundation, which renewed its Fund membership in March, as Fund members
representing the Mahoning Valley. Jan Strasfeld, Executive
Director of The Youngstown Foundation stated, “We welcome this opportunity to expand local representation in
Fund discussions and direction to further strengthen development of our region’s economic competitiveness.”
Founded in 2004, the Fund is a nonprofit memberdriven organization that today consists of 50 funders—
foundations, corporations, universities, health care systems,
business and civic associations, government entities, and
individuals—from across Northeast Ohio who pool their
resources and collective know-how to improve the region’s
economic competitiveness through strategies that advance
job creation, job preparation and job access.
Voting members contribute a minimum of $100,000 over
three years, with several members contributing much more
than that. Since its founding, the Fund has honored a “one
member, one vote” policy for voting members, to assure that
smaller foundations have a strong voice. Each voting member serves on the Fund’s board.
“Strong Valley representation in the Fund is important,”
said Shari Harrell, president of the Community Foundation
of the Mahoning Valley. “Collectively, we can bring a strong
voice to this regional table of heavy hitters and ensure the
issues that affect our residents’ wellbeing are addressed.”
In return, the Mahoning Valley-based members of the
Fund receive access to resources, learning opportunities and
new connections to help support local efforts in the community. For instance, the Fund recently approved a grant of up
to $20,000 to support the Tech Belt Energy Innovation Center
in Warren.
The Fund also supported the national WorkAdvance
pilot in the Mahoning Valley. WorkAdvance tested how a
seamless set of services, with an added focus on postemployment assistance, can better connect disadvantaged
job seekers to in-demand jobs and put them on a path toward career advancement, while helping employers find the
talent they need for their businesses to prosper.

Bouncy houses, a dunk tank, and a rock climbing wall
were just a few of the big attractions at Joshua Dixon Elementary’s Annual Spring Fling May 13th. This 18 year tradition
began in order to build a new playground. Now the proceeds help provide even more. This year, hundreds came out
to enjoy the fun.
“I would like to include a huge thank you to all of the
community supporters and area businesses for their continued support over the years,” said Joshua Dixon Principal
Kim Sharshan. “Their generous contributions have enabled
us to add onto and maintain our playground, publish our
18th School Yearbook, and pay to transport grade-levels on
field trips.”
This year, the Spring Fling Profit after paying vendors
was $4684.40. “I couldn't be prouder. This would not be possible without the help of our families, volunteers, staff members, and PTO,” insisted Sharshan.

Insight into the benefits and limitations of the vegan
lifestyle were presented to the Struthers Rotary Club by Justin Edwards at their May10th meeting. A 2006 graduate of
Struthers High School, Justin completed work on his bachelor’s and master’s degrees at Youngstown State University
and will be awarded his PhD in Naturopathology in the Fall
of 2016 at YSU. Hosted by Rotarian Linda Krestel, Justin and
his wife Ashley (who prepared a vegan meal for the
Struthers Rotary Club meeting) subscribe to the vegan lifestyle and Justin used his experience in dietary science to personally drop about 100lbs through a regimen of controlled
diet and exercise. He related that both high protein and high
carbohydrate diets can be used successfully for many people
in that they both remove the ‘junk’ foods that contribute to
obesity and medical issues related eating habits. Justin’s preferred diet is based on that proposed by Dr. Walter Kempner, a pioneer in the use of diet to treat life-threatening chronic disease, utilizing a diet of mostly rice and fruit to cure malignant hypertension and reverse heart and kidney failure.
He augments his diet with supplements to maintain his intake of protein based dietary requirements and exercises,
mainly by running, to keep his muscles working. A 2014
study on heart disease with 177 of 198 participants completing the program determined that a wholly plant based diet
reduced the risk of cardiovascular disease to zero. Of the 21
participants who dropped out of the study and returned to a
typical mixed protein and plant based diet, 62% experienced
a cardiac event. Justin noted that whether a diet lifestyle
based on protein or plant food sources is chosen, the removal
of the ‘junk’ portion of a typical American diet results in an
improvement in health for about 60% of those who maintain
their lifestyle. For those interested, Justin has volunteered to
address questions if you contact him at [email protected]
or by calling 330-540-0006.

Mahoning County Probate Judge Robert N. Rusu Jr. has
announced that he has appointed Lee E. Frey and Thomas
Shipka as the new Commissioners for the Mill Creek Metro
Park Board of Commissioners.
Lee E. Frey is a former Canfield Mayor and school teacher who currently volunteers with “Big Brothers Big Sisters of
Mahoning Valley”. Judge Rusu said that he was “impressed
with Mr. Frey’s ability to easily communicate his ideas and
his past public service” which the judge said will help the
Board in the coming months.
Thomas A. Shipka is the former Chair of the Youngstown State University, Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies and is well known in the Mahoning County
community. A member of the Nature Conservancy and a CoFounder of the Citizens League of Greater Youngstown,
Judge Rusu said that “Mr. Shipka is a well-respected member
of Mahoning County who has served in many leadership
roles and brings many years of community service to the
Park.”
Judge Rusu personally interviewed five candidates who
were recommended to him by his Selection Committee that
he formed in early April 2016. The Selection Committee was
formed to assist the judge in selecting the next Commissioners while giving the public an opportunity to have input in
the process. When asked about the Selection Committee,
Judge Rusu said that he is “very proud of the fact that his
Selection Committee did exactly what it was created to do.”
“When smart, community minded citizens get together
for a common goal the result will be positive and that is exactly what has happened here” said Judge Rusu. The committee
provided the names of five solid candidates who all had excellent backgrounds and resumes and it was difficult to
choose between the five. Judge Rusu thanked all of the sixteen candidates who applied for the open commissioner positions and said that it speaks volumes about the character of
these individuals who want to volunteer and help the park.

Juvenile Justice Center
West Branch Middle School Students
Receive “Golden Spatula” Awards
At a recent Canfield Rotary luncheon, Anthony
D'Apolito, Juvenile Justice Center court administrator and
magistrate, shared with Rotarians the function and successes
of the Juvenile Justice Center.
Atty. D'Apolito works closely with Judge Theresa Dellick and spoke to the club about the remarkable accomplishments Judge Dellick has achieved since creating the Juvenile
Drug Court in 2001. Her mission was to help troubled youths
discover why they were breaking laws, not just address the
laws they were breaking. Today the Juvenile Court has expanded to six specialty dockets: Drug Court, Education
Court, Mental Health Court, Sex Offender Treatment, a Reentry Program, and Family Dependency. Judge Dellick has
also been very active in bringing the Sandy Hook Promise to
Youngstown, which is a program that teaches children empathy and compassion in an effort to stop bullying. She also
introduced the "Say Hello" program, which encourages children to reach out to peers who may otherwise feel left out.
Atty. D'Apolito and Judge Dellick will be traveling to
Washington, D.C. in the next two weeks where Judge Dellick
will be honored for her work with juveniles.

Mother Phyllis Siciliano, also a Girard resident in her 90’s, who
attended the ceremonies as honored guests on the podium.
A tradition started several years ago is for the Girard High
School Class Presidents to research and give a biography of a
Girard Veteran whose name appears on the War Memorial at
the Girard City Building to honor that individual. Senior Class
President Jacob Ryser, Junior Class President Nick Hall, and
Sophomore Class President Sarah Ryser each presented such a
tribute.

Girard Cemetery.
The Girard Veterans Counsel Honor Guard, Rick Lilly as Honor
Guard Commander, were present to present the Colors and to give
a twenty one gun salute at the Girard Memorial Day Ceremonies
held on Memorial Day at the Girard Cemetery. The Bagpiper was
also present to present music during the ceremony.

Struthers Rotary President Drew Hirt presents 'Our Community
Kitchen' founder Skip Barone with a token of thanks for his
presentation at the June 7th Struthers Rotary Club meeting. Contributed Photo.
The newly formed ‘Our Community Kitchen’ was introduced to the Struthers Rotary Club at its June 7th meeting by
Skip Barone, the founder of the new soup kitchen. Mr. Barone was invited by Rotarian Mary Ann Morell to describe the
new facility and its goals for serving our community. Skip is
a Struthers native now residing in Lowellville who started as
a volunteer with the soup kitchen of the St. Vincent DePaul
society and his service evolved into a vocation that led to his
eventual leading that group and a 15 year service lifetime.
His new endeavor is one that embraces and involves the
entire community and serves not just the homeless but also
those who just need a little bit of help in their lives. In addition to providing hot breakfast and lunch meals and evening
snacks 6 days a week (hopefully to evolve into all seven) the
facility is located across from the WRTA bus garage on Mahoning Avenue and will provide a toiletries pantry and resources, including computer access, to improve the life situation of those in need. There are many reasons individuals
may seek support, from past criminal activity to grief over
loss to addiction difficulties, all of which result in those who
find their life situation difficult to manage. Having access to
the soup kitchen provides a bit of ‘breathing room’ and facilitates their recovery and their ability to continue their life’s
journey. Some find themselves in a difficult situation as a
result of a home environment where parents are not supportive or at advanced age when family and friends are no longer
available or able to offer support. Opening at the end of
June, ‘Our Community Kitchen’ will work with other Mahoning County assistance groups, and with the six YSU colleges there community service is being stressed as an adjunct
to the educational programs. A proposed grant from YSU
may be able to provide transportation to the needy that will
allow opening on Sunday (which is currently excluded due
to lack of bus service). More information is available by calling Skip Barone at 330-770-2224 or by e-mail at [email protected].

At the June 21 meeting of the Rotary Club, Todd Shaffer
from Austintown Parks spoke of the achievements of his staff
in the past several years of his leadership. The new tennis
courts, built in cooperation with Austintown Schools, the
splash pad enclosure, new playground, and future pickle ball
court were among his projects. Shaffer mentioned the park
now covers 202 acres and that there are five smaller parks
around the township to be maintained. Austintown Rotary
created the Celebration Grove in 2005 with 100 trees creating
a quiet place in honor of Rotary's 100th year. The band shell
was a past Rotary project in 1987.
