By Tammy Drobina
It’s an event many people,
both near and far, eagerly
anticipate and it will soon
be here: the Lancaster Festival, running July 20
through 30. From the new
first night’s family picnic
atmosphere to the grand finale featuring one of the top
names in country music, it
truly offers an amazing array of music genres and artistic venues.
The annual celebration
of music, art, and community is under new leadership with the naming of
Ken Culver as director earlier this year, after he
served as interim director
for several months.
“I think the biggest surprise for me was the reliance on volunteers to make
this festival run,” Culver
noted. “We have upwards
of 600 volunteers, some
work all year but they especially are here from the
spring on.”
Culver said they currently have the volunteers needed to run the operation, but
potential volunteers are
kept on a list for the future.
“Some of our volunteers
have been doing it for up to
30 years,” he added. “It’s
really a labor of love.”
The activities, concerts,
and events are too numerous to list in one article, but
some of the highlights include Italian street painting,
the free ice cream social
outside St. Mary Church,
and orchestra opening night
on July 21 at St. Mary
Church. The brass fanfare
at 7pm outside the church is
free and not to be missed.
Some events require tickets, but many are free.
Live Wire, an AC/DC
tribute band, will rock the
stage at OU-L on July 27.
The opening act is Vital
Signs, made up of doctors

The Midtown Men, direct from Broadway’s original Jersey Boys, are the
featured musical act on Saturday, July 23. The concert
will be at OU-L’s Wendel
Stage, with tickets available
in advance or at the gate.
Culver is looking forward to this concert especially because of his love of
Broadway.
“The Midtown Men are
very animated on stage,
with a lot of song and dance
and throwbacks to the
60’s,” he said.
Do you remember how
good you felt in the
“good ole days”?
If you remember these images, you may remember how good
you felt years ago… before that
car accident, before that work
injury, before that sciatica started
kicking in. Now when you move,
your lower back hurts and your
leg gives out. You do the slightest thing, and your lower back
flares up. You have had shots,
pills, massages - nothing helps.
Remember when you used to
dance or play with your kids? If it
was due to your age, then
wouldn’t everyone have lower
back pain? So it can’t be your
age. Taking pain pills only treats
the symptoms, not the cause,
that is why your problem returns.

Make the Most of Your Backyard This Summer
(NewsUSA) - Sponsored
News - Summer has arrived,
and homeowners are ready to
make the most of their outdoor
spaces. Current outdoor living
trends focus on several areas,
including heating, lighting,
dining and multilevel design,
with the overall theme of creating a welcoming, relaxing
environment suitable for entertaining guests or enjoying
in private.
* Heat it up. Fire pits are
a hot item and provide a central point for gathering guests
on summer evenings before,
during or after dinner. An added bonus: Wood fires can help
keep the mosquitoes away.
* Light it up. The right
lighting is an essential part of
an enjoyable, safe and functional backyard design. Some
ways to add light and set the
mood for a patio party include
illuminated planters, pendant
lights, string bulbs and hardscape lighting.
* Split it up. Multilevel
patio designs, particularly in
poolscapes, add interest to an
outdoor living space and offer
more options for guests, and
homeowners can make their
spaces distinctive by choosing
from a variety of designs in
retaining wall blocks.
* Eat it up. No patio party
is complete without food and
drinks, but today's outdoor
living designs allow guests
and family members to take
outdoor cooking and grilling
to the next level. Outdoor
kitchen setups let guests take
part in meal preparation or
just hang out with the resident
chef.
Any upgrade to an outdoor living space starts with
defining a vision. How will
the space be used? For large
parties, for outdoor cooking,
for a pool? All of the above?
Before beginning to renovate
an outdoor living space, start
by walking around the area to
determine the right locations
for paths, paving stones, pools
or multiple levels that will be
safe as well as attractive.
Once homeowners define
their vision for a backyard,
pool or patio area, the next
steps are to consider design
basics, such as colors, patterns
and materials. Outdoor living
design companies such as Belgard suggest creating a "mood
board," a collection of colors,
furniture styles and landscaping that can include photos,
swatches and bookmarked
URLs with design ideas.
Visit www.belgard.com
for more ideas and tips for
making the most of your outdoor living space.

Kids are not forgotten at the
festival and there are numerous concerts, shows, and activities for them, such as
Festival Fair Day on July 23 at
the fairgrounds, Disney Live in
Concert! with the Lancaster
Festival Orchestra on July 28
at Fairfield Christian Church's
auditorium, bike races, and
Rising Park Day. A Star Wars
costume contest will be held
as part of the fun of Disney
Live!
ArtWalk, traditionally one
of the most popular events, is
set for July 22 from 6-9pm. 38
locations in the Lancaster
downtown area will feature
displays by talented artists,
plus there will be the chance to
visit shops open late just for
the event.
Leslee Hanson, program
coordinator for Destination
Downtown Lancaster, recalled
last year’s beautiful weather
for the ArtWalk, which drew
the largest crowd to date: an
estimated 10,000 people.
“I think ArtWalk is such a
popular event because it offers
a variety of activities for different interests,” Hanson said.
“ArtWalk gives everyone the
opportunity to access visual
arts and to meet the artist. Additionally, attendees can walk
around our beautiful Downtown at their leisure and enjoy
great live music, street performers, and food! ArtWalk,
in its 29th year, has established itself as a fun event for
everyone. We often refer to
TOWNE CRIER - Fairfield Edition
ArtWalk as Lancaster's Homecoming.”
The grand finale on July 30
will showcase country legend
Vince Gill, who will perform
with the festival orchestra.
Some of his hits include “I
Still Believe in You,” “When
I Call Your Name,” “Never
Knew Lonely,” and “Go Rest
High on That Mountain.”
The concert will be at Wendel Stage at OU-L, tickets are
available in advance or at the
gate, if not sold out.
There will be a free concert
at the bandstand each weekday, and other free concerts at
locations around Lancaster,
Lithopolis and Baltimore.
The feeling of homecoming
mentioned by Hanson is felt
by many in the community.
Culver, who came to Lancaster in 1968, explained, “Back
in 1968, and even to an extent
today, the county fair was the
big draw. It’s a place to see old
friends, have family reunions,
and enjoy what we have.
“Now they come back for
two reasons – the fair and the
festival. Family and family
values, that’s the heart of this
community. And we have
wonderful, national talent that
comes in each year. It’s that
sense of community and closeness that makes it so special.”

LHS Athletic Boosters selling track pieces
Baltimore educator inducted into
Academic Hall of Fame
By Jim N. Reed
On May 5, 2016, longtime Baltimore resident and educator Willis
Miller was inducted into the Western Brown Local Schools' Academic Hall of Fame.
Willis was selected for the honor based on his contributions to
public education over the course of
six decades of teaching in the
classrooms of four Ohio school
districts. He started his career in
Conesville in Coshocton County in
1950. From 1951-1953 he served
his country in the Korean Conflict
and then returned to Conesville for
two more years before moving on
to the Zanesville City Schools
where he taught at Roosevelt Junior High. A position then opened
at General Sherman Junior High in
the Lancaster City Schools where
Willis became Head Master of the
math department and taught with
recognized distinction for 37
years, leaving in 1994. His last 18
years were in the classrooms of the
Liberty Union-Thurston School
District where he became a popular
teacher for students of all ages.
(He was invited by the 2013 graduating class to be the Baccalaureate
speaker and at 84 years young energized the audience with his wisdom and humor.)
Willis attended the one-room
Salem Elementary School and
graduated as valedictorian from
Mt. Orab High School in Brown
County (now part of Western
Brown Schools) in 1946. He is a
Capital University graduate (with a
4.0 GPA in 31 semester hours of
math) and attended Ohio State University for post graduate studies.
Rod Ishida, a retired colleague
at Sherman Junior High remembers, "For nine years I was able to
watch the master at work. It was
like receiving a free doctorate in
teaching. The lessons I learned
from Willis served me well. They
(students) soon realized in his
class, failure was not an option.
Students come first, and anything
you can do to help them, you do.
And have some fun."
Another retired colleague at
Sherman, Richard Goss, recalls,
"Mr. Miller loved the classroom.
He was tough and he taught. I most
remember him already covered in
chalk dust before the entry bell
even rang. He tried endless ways to
convey the substance of math to his
students. The man impacted thousands of lives in his teaching career
of over 60 years." (Willis actually
estimates he had in excess of
800,000 students walk through his
classroom doors during his career.)
Debbie Miller, retired Liberty
Union Middle School guidance
counselor, recounts, "My daughter
Allyssa was one of Willis's fifth
grade gifted students. Her positive
year in fifth grade math laid the
foundation for her success in accelerated math. She is now an oncology nurse at Children's Hospital.
However, his greatest contribution
was working with students who
struggled in math."
Kelli Brownfield, retired Liberty-Union Elementary principal,
recollects, "Willis is THE most
humble, unassuming individual I
have ever met. He disliked recognition but deserved more. We periodically held a "Mr. Miller Day" in
our building just because he was so
loved and respected by the entire
community."
Penny Wasem (CPA, CFP,
PFS) is the owner of Lifetime Financial Planning Solutions, LLC in
Lancaster and recalls, "Mr. Miller
was the first teacher to instill a love
of math in me. My passion for
math continued through high
school and, because of that, I chose
to pursue accounting as a major in
college."
Retired Liberty-Union Middle
School principal Hank Gavarkavich remembers, "What really sticks
out in my mind about Willis is his
unequaled dedication to his students and to the profession of
teaching. Willis was responsible to
work between the elementary and
middle school each day. In the
rain, sun, cold or snow Willis
would ride his bicycle across town
in order to assist kids."
Outside of the classroom Willis
has many other interests. He remains an avid life-long bicycle enthusiast, owning dozens of bikes,
many classic including the one he
road through the streets of Mt.
Orab as a kid. He continues to ride
most days and his rides through the
old "Twin Cities" of Basil and Baltimore have become iconic. It is
not uncommon for community residents to drop off a damaged or
Willis Miller
LANCASTER, Ohio – With
the construction of the new Lancaster High School track and
field, the Athletic Boosters are
selling pieces of the old track.
“The LHS track holds many
special memories for alumni, particularly those who participated in
track and field events,” said Steve
Wigton, Superintendent of Lancaster City Schools. “By selling
pieces of the track, we’re giving
the community an opportunity to
keep a piece of that history with
them while supporting the athletic
program, now and in the future.”
There are several options available for purchase beginning at $10
for a 6”x12” section, up to $50 for
a full size lane number. Additionally, a brass plate with custom engraving can be added for $10.

otherwise unwanted bicycle at his
repair garage. His skill and humanitarian nature more than likely will
lead to a successful rehabilitation.
Dozens of children in the Baltimore
area have been recipients of one of
Willis's gift bicycles.
He also is a vintage auto expert.
One of his favorite recollections of
high school is to recall a roster of
automobiles (brand, model and color) driven by each of his teachers!
He rode a Model A Ford school bus
as a young boy and enjoys
cranking up his pride and joy Model
T Ford to this day.
He and his wife Carolyn are 30year members of the Baltimore Area
Museum and remain engaged in its
activities and projects. They are also
57-year members of the Trinity United Church of Christ. Willis used his
knowledge of the church's history to
portray Basil's famous "Fisherman,"
Henry Leonard, during a Fairfield
Heritage Association Cemetery
Walk in 2015.
Willis would want a mention of
his favorite high school math teacher, Mr. Hoyt Leininger, who instilled
in him his interest, unique understanding and love of math. Willis
would be the first to acknowledge
the significance a teacher can make
in a life.
After all, Willis is a perfect example of a teacher who clearly made,
and continues to make, a difference
in the lives of his students. An octogenarian who has scores of Facebook "Likes" and he deserves every
one of them. Willis Miller remains
relevant and significant. He matters
to his students.

many benefits for patients who are
candidates for the surgery. Motion
sensors placed around and on the
knee during surgery help capture
the knee’s movement and bone
structure, then feed that information to a nearby computer to create
a 3D model. This model helps the
surgeon better align and place the
implant, which can significantly
lengthen the life expectancy of the
implant. This process also preserves as much of the patient’s
original knee as possible, giving
the patient a more natural-feeling
knee.
In terms of recovery, results have
shown that patients who undergo a
partial knee replacement with the
NAVIO System experience a shorter
hospital stay, have minimal blood
loss and undergo a quicker rehabilitation.

educational session at FMC on July

people diligently as they mow, to
save them from any potential danger.
Some puppies, like me, will
find a nice shady spot to do reconnaissance. Others like to follow
along, which is fine but be mindful
of exactly where and how close
you are; if you are along the shooting-out side of the mower, you
may find your fur a delicate shade
of green after the grass blows all
over you.
This is not a good look for most
puppies, plus any cats in the area
will find it hysterical, as will the
squirrels. Your reputation is at
stake so keep a respectable distance so you don’t end up looking
like a Martian pet.
Occasionally a snake might
show up in your yard. Red alert!
Those things give me the creeps so
I leave it to the other animals to
handle when that happens.
The birds seem to like it when
people mow, as you will notice
they often are right there in the
places with shorter grass because it
makes it a little easier for them to
find worms. Many do not know
this, but when the mower goes over
the ground, the worms underneath
think there’s some big party going
on so they come up to take a look.
The birds have figured this out and
are there waiting. Guess this is
some sort of circle of life moment.
Speaking of that, this past week
there was a dead raccoon in the
yard. Mommy came upon it as she
was mowing. It had fallen out of the
mulberry tree, expiring of natural
causes it seems.
At least he went with a full tummy.
My sister Maddy immediately
wanted to check it out but I told her
to stay away. If I have learned anything from those Law and Order
reruns, it’s that you don’t mess with
what someone might think is a potential crime scene, and you especially don’t want to leave any
evidence behind that might cast suspicion when you are only innocent
bystanders. Which we were. Seriously.
As you watch your people from a
comfy spot, you may begin to recognize different mowing styles.
Around here we have the “mosey
mow” where the person goes along
at a slow and steady pace, taking
whatever time is necessary to finish
the job in a deliberate way.
The other style is what we can
only refer to as “fast break mowing,”
where the person on the machine is
going so fast you’d think they were
being chased. This is the “get it done
and move on to the next thing” mindset. I will let you, dear readers, guess
which style belongs to which of my
people.
Either style is fine, and your people will probably have their own
individual ways to mow as well. It’s
all cheap entertainment for us.
See you next month!

partial knee replacement procedure
as an alternative to total knee replacement for patients with advanced-stage osteoarthritis. The
technology, called the NAVIO system uses state-of-the-art, computer-assistance
and
robotic
technology to align and place an
implant in the knee.
On July 6, interested residents
can attend an educational session
from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at Fairfield
Medical Center to learn more about
this new technology. FMC is the
only hospital in Southern Ohio to
offer the NAVIO system.
“The benefit of the NAVIO
System starts with not needing a
pre-operative CT scan or MRI,”
said Kevin Bates, PA-C, who has
utilized the technology at Fairfield
Medical Center. “The patient-specific planning is 100 percent done
intraoperative utilizing the NAVIO
computer and robotic handpiece.
The component balancing is
unique to each patient; we know
how the components will fit and
how balanced the range of motion
will be before any bone is removed.”

Hi everyone,
Dudley
here.
This time I want
to review yard
work.
In the summer months, your people may go
out in the back yard and use loud
machines to mow your bathroom.
This is very considerate of them, as
we don’t want the bathroom grass
too high in case it harbors bugs,
plus for you little puppies it may
tickle your bellies.
Your people may walk back
and forth, back and forth, pushing
the loud machine as it spits out the
grass. Some people sit on the loud
machines and ride around the yard
as the grass shoots out the side.
Either way, you must keep a careful eye out while they are using
those things.
Especially watch out for where
you left any toys, bones, or other
good stuff. Many a fluffy toy has
been ripped to shreds through that
machine, leaving a sad trail of
stuffing and pieces shot around the
ground. They are not nearly as
much fun to play with when that
happens.
The eating of our toys notwithstanding, the machines seem harmless enough but as puppies we must
be mindful of any malicious intent.
That is why you must watch your

Pictured are Camp Leaders Justine Foster, Allie Tobin, and Doug Dever.
Located in historic downtown Lancaster, the First Presbyterian Church has existed as a congregation for over 200 years. Its
members cherish and honor their legacy
from past congregations and have committed themselves with energy and creativity
to the challenges of the present, in order to
preserve its vitality for the future. As a
family of faith, they exemplify both unity
and diversity. This commitment and these
attributes are reflected each year as members come together to share their unique
spiritual gifts as a part of the Lancaster
Festival ArtWalk -“A Celebration of
Gifts.”
This year their display will feature
painting, sculpture, photography, needlework, woodworking, music, and drama.
Many items will be offered for sale. Their
bountiful refreshment table will, as usual,
be loaded with home-baked cookies from
the kitchens of their talented chefs and is
always a popular spot.
An addition this year will be a creative
drama presentation performed by participants of the First Church Drama Camp.
Children from grades 1 through 8 will

Presbyterian Church, assisted by Justine
Foster and Allie Tobin; each bringing a
wide range of theatre experience. During the
camp, participants will have learned and
practiced basic aspects of drama as well as
experiencing the impact of faith in life. The
play will be held in the church’s new Youth
Center
The art exhibit will be open on Friday

A-C Alumni presents 51 scholarships
Fairfield County Safety Council
presents AED’s to two local businesses
By Carolyn Tilley
The annual banquet of the
Alumni Association of AmandaClearcreek High School was held
June 4 at the high school. Over 270
were present for the evening.
Many graduates and donors of the
scholarships come from across the
country to attend each year.
The association established an
endowment fund in 1991 to present scholarships to graduates of the
high school. Since that time the
fund has grown to over $1.5 million through the establishment of
42 individual and family scholarships from alumni and friends of
the community. Some awards in
the past have been through proceeds from the basketball tournament held each year and now the
5K race held in June. Individuals
often give one-time memorials.
This year 51 scholarships were
presented to 26 seniors and 25 college students for a total of
$86,561. At this time the Association has given a total of 778
awards worth $1,327,785, nearly
the amount they have invested.
They are very proud of what their
graduates and community has been
able to accomplish.

particular meeting was to inform
the local township representatives
about the spread of the Zika Virus
in our area. Larry Hanna, Administrator for Fairfield County Health
Dept. and his assistant Dianna Stover, a nurse, with the department,
presented a power point presentation dealing with this topic.
The title of their presentation
was "How to control the spread of
the Zika Virus in our county." This
virus is spread by mosquitoes in
the genus Aedes sp. It has also been
On June 17, 2016, The Fairfield
County Township Association met
at the Violet Township Service
Center in Pickerington. The purpose of this organization is to keep
the townships within the county up
to date on important information
needed for the townships successful operation. President Hart Van
Horn noted that the township organization in Ohio is one of the best
in the nation. The purpose of this
found to have been spread by sexual contact. In our area of the United States, there is no record of it
being spread from person to person
in the region, but rather people
having the virus have moved to the
area from more tropical zones,
such as Africa and South America
where they have contracted the virus.
The symptoms of the disease
are as follows: fever, rash, joint
pain and conjunctivitis (eye inflammation). Many times the indi-
viduals does not show the
symptoms of the disease, but it can
be diagnosed by a blood or a urine
tests. Health professional also inquire if the patient has been in an
area where the Zika Virus is commonly found (travel history).
One of the more serious outcomes from the Zika Virus infection is when it is present during
pregnancy and it appears to be associated with a condition called
microcephaly. This results in abnormal brain development of the
fetus in the womb. When a child is
born with this condition, the head
and brain of the child are very
small and this can result in delayed
development in such areas as
speech, coordination and movement. Mental retardation and seizures are also associated with the
condition. There are other causes
for microcephaly such as certain
kinds of infection, chromosomal
abnormalities, drugs and alcohol
and malnutrition. Early studies
have shown that microcephaly is
most likely to develop when the
mother is exposed to the Zika Virus during the first trimester of her
pregnancy, but more research
needs to be done in this area.
At the present time, the best measure to be taken to stop the spread of
the Zika Virus infection is prevention,
since there no vaccine to protect
against the Zika Virus. The mosquitoes that carry the virus breed in areas
of standing water, such as bird baths
(change the water frequently), rain
barrels, flower pots, wheelbarrows,
old tires, etc. An effort should be made
to eliminate these areas of standing
water. Since the virus can also be
spread through sexual contact, an individual must practice safe sex. Women
who are pregnant or thinking about
becoming pregnant should be careful
about traveling to countries where the
virus is common, such as Brazil where
the Summer Olympics are being held
this summer. One should try to protect
themselves from mosquitoes by using
repellents on skin and protective clothing. Be sure to check which repellents
should be used on clothing only and
not on the skin. Using the wrong repellent can have serious consequences.
Check which repellents can be used
safely on young children.
SAFETY COMMITTEE: The
Committee approved a time limit for
on-street parking for RVs and trailers.
PLANNING
COMMISSION:
The June 9 meeting was canceled for
lack of agenda items. The mayor
anticipates having one July 14 to
prepare for the zoning code review
that Regional Planning is supposed
to undertake in August.
SOLICITOR: Council has two
new pieces of legislation – an appropriations change ordinance with
emergency language and authority
for the Village Administrator to advertise and sell two Chevrolet pickup
trucks. The Solicitor will bring legislation finalizing the Woods Annexation to the June 27 meeting. He
requested a brief executive session to
discuss matters of litigation and
property acquisition.
POLICE: Both bids for the Mustang were rejected as they were less
than a third of the value of the car.
The car will be advertised differently. Chief Tussey has stepped up patrol at the swimming pool after
several incidents of teenagers destroying property.
MAYOR: The Mayor attended a
flag retirement ceremony by Cub
Scout Pack 187 and talked with
Scouts about civic engagement and
helping communities. He participated in the VFW Memorial Day ceremony. The first two movies in the
park have been “phenomenal,” drawing 100 to 200 people.
Green Gourmet’s water was shut
off, though it turned into a day-long
process because of fire hydrant issues. Mohler would like to see the
problem valve dug up and repaired
so it can be turned off in the future.
Others agreed.
FISCAL OFFICER: The new
Village Administrator has returned
to prescribed purchasing ordering
procedures and would like to make
purchases from Baltimore Ace both
easier yet controlled.
Jenkins said $366,479 is in the
water fund now. If Council wanted to
pay for the Water Treatment Plant
contingencies with that money, it
could be done; but it may be harder
to get a bank loan later, whereas
Peoples has indicated it could finance the contingencies. Jenkins
added that WTP loan payments will
be $10,333.57 a month. With the old
debt, the Village has about $220,000
a year in just debt, plus regular operations. The Mayor will talk with the
bank about adding contingencies to
the existing loan and report to the
Finance Committee on June 27.
NEW BUSINESS:
Hamilton
said he saw the man contracted for
mosquito spraying going through a
neighborhood at a “pretty good clip”
and it appeared that hardly any
chemical was being used. Mohler said
that is typical for the new chemical and
equipment. The Mayor anticipates the
Village will request spraying once a
month.
OLD BUSINESS: The deadline for
deciding on the appeal of the variance is
June 18. The Mayor said BZA discussed
the request for months prior to making a
decision and did not make the decision
lightly. When an appeal was filed, there
was disagreement about whether Council should hear the appeal, but Council
decided to do so. Hankison cannot participate in the discussion or vote because
of a conflict of interest. The Mayor can
vote only if there is a tie. The Mayor
asked Keller to guide the discussion.
Hamilton asked whether the BZA
discussed building dimensions, including height and size of doors. Hochradel
said all those things were brought up, but
they pertain to an accessory structure,
not to a primary dwelling. The variance
was given for a 17.5-foot setback, and as
long as the building fits inside that setback, Begue can make changes and does
not have to seek another variance.
BZA looked at the minimum building
size, which Begue satisfied. He is well
within the height restrictions (35 feet for
R4); and side yard setbacks are well over
8 feet. The building will be 18.5 feet
from the property line but 40 feet from
the pavement because of the width of a
street that will probably never be used.
Hochradel said BZA looked at what
had happened in that general area since
the zoning code was implemented. He
said the decision by BZA was unanimous.
Keller moved to affirm the appeal.
Hamilton seconded. Hochradel said that
section 1240.12 of the Codified Ordinances says in the event the Municipal
Council modifies the recommendation of
the Planning and Zoning Commission, it
must do so by not less than three-fourths
of the full membership, which is five
votes. The Solicitor said he did not think
the supermajority language applied to
this situation, but to public hearings and
recommendations by the P&Z Commission.
There being no other discussion,
Keller, Hamilton and House voted to
affirm the appeal. Hochradel and Mohler
voted to deny the appeal. Appeal affirmed, 3-2. The Mayor thanked Council
members for their work and asked the
Solicitor to describe the next steps in the
variance process. Feyko said a copy of
the minutes would be sent to all parties.
The Begues still have appeal rights judicially.
Council recessed for a short break.
followed by an executive session to discuss matters of litigation and property
acquisition around 8:40pm. Council
came out of executive session at 9:38pm.
and adjourned upon return.
Next meeting is July 11.

Baltimore Council Report
Baltimore Council met June 13
with Chuck Keller, Mike Hamilton,
Jim Hochradel, Dwayne Mohler,
Tony House, and Robert Hankison
present. Also present were Mayor
Bradley Nicodemus, Village Solicitor Jeff Feyko, Police Chief Mike
Tussey, and Fiscal Officer Kathryn
Jenkins.
In Visitor’s Comments, Dave
Piccirillo reiterated his belief that
Section 1236.04 applies only to appeals for the applicant of the variance. He asked Council to vote on
whether the appeal by Doug Hanki-
Page 10
son should have been accepted for a
hearing.
Doug Hankison said he bought
his house with the understanding that
a structure could not be built within
40 feet of his lot line except in a case
where “a limited deviation” from the
zoning requirement might be granted
by a variance. He said that the Board
of Zoning Appeals could have relaxed the setback requirement somewhat, allowing Begue to build a
smaller structure rather than granting
the full request.
George Begue said that if the appeal is granted, he would be out the
money he spent purchasing the lot
following the BZA decision in
March. He asked what he could do
with the lot now.
Village
Administrator
Teri
Wise’s written report stated pool attendance is up by about 30 percent.
She asked the Solicitor to prepare
advertisements for the two S10 pickup trucks so the Village can sell
them.
A chlorinator head problem is
believed to have led to a chemical
imbalance and eventual discoloration
of village water; the issue has been
addressed and the system will be
flushed again soon. Mosquito spraying is being done on an as-needed
basis.
SERVICE COMMITTEE: The
Engineer and Brad Kinnison are
working on the manhole survey and
have found a large inflow (estimated
100,000 gallons a day) at a manhole
close to the pool, which they are
investigating. The Mayor will share
information on the Tom Lilly building in an executive session. The land
bank properties are still hung up in
the County Prosecutor’s office.

Two graduating seniors from
Bloom-Carroll High School were
recently awarded a scholarship of
$500 apiece toward college expenses.
Madeleine Arledge was presented her scholarship at the regular June 2 Lions meeting.
Madeleine will be attending Otterbein University to major in Nursing. She said she wanted to “go
home knowing I helped someone
better themselves to live a happy
and healthier life.” One of her
goals is to become a pediatric nurse
at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.
She also hopes that “one day I am
able to take my nursing skills and
help children in other countries that
do not have the same medical attention and luxuries that we are
blessed with.”

people see first, so that minor problems don’t turn into larger ones.”
He wants to be “involved in helping others decipher their ailments
and assist them in attaining a better
quality of health.” He would like to
work as a primary care physician in
the local area because he loved
growing up in Fairfield County and
wants to “positively contribute to
the community.”
Nicholas read his essay to the
picnic attendees. The GOOD students look up to the scholarship
recipients, and hopefully envision
themselves in that position in a few
years!
The Bloom-Carroll Lions are an
international service organization
of 1.4 million members. As such,
they select their scholarship recipients based on those who have committed themselves to community
service and plan to continue to

Tinseltown Talks By Nick Thomas
Meals On Wheels
receives $1250 grant
Richard Herd to receive his Silver Spurs
Recent Richard Herd photo for upcoming
2017 book of character actors, courtesy
Bruce Burr and used with permission.
When discussing westerns, Richard
Herd’s name may not immediately pop up.
The 83-year-old veteran character actor is
probably best recognized from several 90s
TV series such as “Seinfeld” – for his reoccurring role of Mr. Wilhelm – as well as
“Seaquest DSV” and “Star Trek: Voyager.”
But this fall, Herd will be honored for his
western connections at the 16th annual Silver Spur Awards, presented by The Reel
Cowboys, a film and TV appreciation organization that has included among its member's western icons such as Ronald Reagan,
Angie Dickinson, and James Arness (see
www.reelcowboys.org).
“It was a total surprise when I received
the call from the award committee,” said
Herd from his home in Los Angeles. “I came
late to Hollywood and missed the great TV
Richard Herd as Sheriff File in 1955
stage production of "The Rain Maker."
courtesy Richard Herd.
western era of which I had always wanted to
be a part, so the pickings were very slim.”
Nevertheless, Herd’s connection to the
cowboy community dates back to his childhood.
“I’m indebted to my grandfather, Thomas
Lydon, who took me many times on his buck
board to the Keith Stables where he worked
in Brighton, Massachusetts,” he said, noting
that the smell of horse manure and gun
smoke “has long lingered in my being.”
Like many actors, Herd’s acting skills
were first sharpened in theater, long before
his move to television and film in the 1970s.
In 1955, he played the sheriff in “The Rainmaker” at The Erie Playhouse in Pennsylvania.
“It was a winter stock regional theater
company with a six-month season,” he re-
called. “I was a very young actor and being
there was one of the best learning acting
experiences of my theatrical life. Jerry Stiller of ‘Seinfeld’ and Vic Morrow of ‘Combat’ had been members of the company at
one time or another as well.”
Much later, in 2001, Herd portrayed
famed filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille on stage.
“It was a one-man show. DeMille produced
the first full length western ‘The Squaw
Man’ (in 1914) along with many other great
westerns.”
On television, Herd appeared in the 1978
western comedy “Kate Bliss and the Ticker
Tape Kid.”
“It was directed by Burt Kennedy who
worked with John Wayne for over 20 years,”
he noted. Herd also had a role in the 2007
TV western “Love’s Unfolding Dream”
which reused old sets from the popular
1990’s western series “Dr. Quinn, Medicine
Woman” in which Herd also appeared. Other TV western roles included the series “The
Adventures of Brisco County Jr.”
In addition to acting, Herd creates music,
crafts jewelry, writes poetry, and is an established artist (see www.richardherd.com). He
has also taught acting classes at colleges
around the country.
In July, he will be a guest at the San
Antonio Comic Con, and his name was recently added to the massive list of guests
attending the Star Trek 50th anniversary
celebration in Las Vegas in August. But this
year, he’s especially looking forward to the
Silver Spur Award in September.
“It will be presented to me by Morgan
Woodward,” he says. “I feel blessed that I
got to do the handful of westerns that I’ve
done. I look forward to the day when this
more hardened and mature man gets the
opportunity to saddle up, slap on my sixshooter and chase the bad guys again.”
Lancaster, Ohio – Meals on Wheels of
Fairfield County is proud to announce that
it has received a $1250 grant award from
Meals on Wheels America for its participation in the 14th Annual March for Meals
campaign. This past March was Meals on
Wheels’ third year participating in the national Meals on Wheels awareness campaign designed to celebrate the proven
collaboration of local community organizations, businesses, all levels of government and compassionate individuals to
ensure that our seniors are not forgotten.
“March for Meals is a great way to
engage the community and raise awareness
of the important and necessary work provided by Meals on Wheels at both the local
and national level.” Stated Anna Tobin,
Executive Director of Meals on Wheels of
Fairfield County. “The grant we received
will help to strengthen our ability to provide quality services to the increasing
number of seniors in our county to improve
their health and well-being and enable
them to live in the environment of their
choice.”
Nearly $400,000 has been granted to
265 local Meals on Wheels programs and
one Meals on Wheels America-affiliated
State Association based on their March for
Meals efforts. This year’s grants were
made possible through the generosity of
Subaru of America, Inc. and its eighth
annual Share the Love Event. During the
event held from November 19, 2015
through January 2, 2016, $250 was donated to a customer’s choice of a national or
hometown charity for every new Subaru
vehicle purchased or leased. Meals on
Wheels America has been a participating
national charity since the event’s inception
in 2008.

Carroll Council Report
Carroll Village Council met in regular
session on Tuesday, June 14, 2016 at 7:00
p.m. Mayor Tammy Drobina called the
meeting to order with pledge to the flag.
At roll call members present were Conda
Jones, Sarah Weist, Bill Meyer, Martin Rippel, Don Deuschle and Carole Dreier.
Also present were Clerk Mary Dawson,
Police Officer Tom Romine, Zoning and
PMC inspector Dennis Rose and Village
Solicitor Jeff Feyko.
Visitors present were: Diana Rose, Jonah
Mastro, David Weist, Dallas Hughes, Greg
Hitchcock, and FFA members Gavin Wolfe
and Makayla Gillenwater.
Mayor asked for a motion from Council
to amend the agenda to have Ordinance
2016-07 removed, it is not needed, Solicitor
informed us all that was needed is a signed
extension of the agreement.
Carole Dreier made a motion to do so,
seconded by Bill Meyer, roll call vote was all
in favor.
Two members of FFA were present to
address council on the summer park program. They stated that last year it was a 2
week program this year will only be one
week from July 18th -22nd. They will enroll
100 and at this time it is 60% filled.
Gavin Wolfe explained about the program, last year was the first time for several
years and they had a successful program
with the 4-H, special visit from Dudley and
the Mayor, Greenfield Twp Fire Dept., Medical Center, field trip to N. A. Taxidermy and
the Fairfield Tractor Club.
This year’s program promises to be just
as informative on healthy eating, a visit from
Fairfield Medical Center personnel and from
the Cattleman’s Assoc.
Councilman Bill Meyer added how it
came to stating up again, the donors and
donations. Some businesses that donated for
lunches were Fisher’s Restaurant, Pizza
Zone, Town Tavern (burgers), Subway.
Since the program is for only one week,
this year’s budget should be a little less, they
think around $8,500.00. Last year the Village donated $1,000.00. Councilman Meyer
asked that the village donate $2,000.00 this
year.
July 1 - 21, 2016
Mayor asks for a motion that was made
by Bill Meyer, 2nd by Don Deuschle.
Roll call vote was all in favor.
Committee Reports: Service Committee
met on Monday, June 13, 2016 concerning a
Village Building Dept. Chairman Don Deuschle gave his report; this will be for Commercial buildings only. Bill Toole and
Caroline Asebrook were present to explain.
At this time the Village receives no revenue
(council voted for this back in 2007 when we
first started using Asebrook instead of State
for inspections). The company feels that the
village should be receiving some revenue
from this instead of them receiving it all. It
was discussed at length and the different
ways it could be done, possibly a split or
keep the fee and send payments to Toole.
Bill Toole told committee to think about how
they want to go, discuss and take your time.
Clerk stated at the meeting that she thought
to start with the split and see how it works
out. Since the village does not handle the
building dept. locally it would put extra
work on the office. This matter will be discussed next month after everyone has a
chance to review the information and think
about it.
Police report for May 2016 by Officer
Tom Romine. No questions from council.
Dennis Rose gave his report on Zoning
and Code Enforcement, not much to report at
this time.
Peoples Store received a Notice of
Violation/Condemnation Order from the
Building Dept. The owner will need to repair
or legal action will proceed.
Solicitor Jeff Feyko had no report, except
he did comment on a Contractor Registration
mentioned by Toole. Other villages do this
and he thinks it is good as it helps to keep
track.
Mayor’s Report: Police Dept. needed digital radios because the sheriff’s office
switched to that style. They were ordered
and are in use. Some of the old ones may be
donated to the school, they can use them to
communicate between buildings.
Port-a-john is in Canal Basin Park for the
summer, this is a courtesy for park guests.
High Street at the entrance to town will
be closed for work, probably next month, for
approximately 3-4 weeks. More info will be
provided when firm dates are known.
(Mayor’s report is available in its entirety
at the clerk’s office)
Old Business: Shelter house repair is
done and looks nice. A village resident reported a sag in the roof. It has been that way
for years and was taken care of as best as it
could. Council member Bill Meyer commented that the basketball court looks nice
and is used quite a bit.
The two-year extension for Local Waste
that was voted on in a previous meeting has
been signed. The rate will go up .25 the first
year and stay the same the next year.
New Business: The Old Timers Festival
will be held August 19-20 this year. The
parade will be on Saturday morning, August
20th. There will be vintage baseball games, a
doubleheader for the men’s teams and ladies’ teams. Entertainment is the British Invasion on Friday night and These Guys Live
on Saturday night.
Clerk’s Report: Clerk gave a short report
on past due bills totaling $6820.68 (at the
end of last month) with 55 customers delin-
quent. Delinquent customers will be tagged
on Wednesday with shut off Thursday at
11:00 am. Clerk is working on the budget for
2017 and it should be ready in the next few
days. A copy will be delivered to everyone
when complete. Hopefully the Finance Committee can meet about ½ hour before meeting
in July and will be ready to pass at regular
council session. Finance Committee is Martin Rippel, Carole Dreier and Conda Jones.
If anyone should have any questions, please
contact the Clerk and she will answer before
the next meeting. The budget needs to be
filed with the County Auditor by July 20,
2016.
Finance Meeting is set for July 12 at
6:00pm with a Public Hearing to follow at
6:30pm and Regular Council meeting at
7:00pm.
Meeting adjourned at 7:40pm by a motion from Bill Meyer, 2nd by Conda Jones.
Next meeting of Council is July 12, 2016
at 7:00 P.M.

Baltimore-Thurston Ministerial Association
Focused on the Goal
Summer is here and the weather has been wonderful enough for my wife and I
to again start walking on a regular basis. As a matter of fact, just before I sat
down to write this, I hit my goal for the 14th day in a row. I’m averaging over
13,000 steps a day which, according to the statistics for my fitness tracker, puts
me in the top 4% of males wearing this tracker. That only means that I was
faithful for two weeks and hit my goal. Nothing more. Sure, it took
determination and finding a way to walk even on those days that my schedule
said that I can’t. Many more could do it if they desired.
Truthfully, my being in the top 4% of all males wearing this fitness tracker
doesn’t really matter. What really matters is how I’m caring for my soul. Am I
as faithful to finding time for prayer and Bible study on those busy days when I
think that I don’t have time for that. Are you? Are we as determined to reach the
goal of getting closer to Jesus as I was to reach my step goal 14 days in a row?
Even though he hasn’t yet reached the goal, Paul encourages us to reach for it as
well.
“I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well
on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for
me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in
all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us
onward―to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.
“So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has
for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total
commitment, God will clear your blurred vision―you’ll see it yet! Now that
we’re on the right track, let’s stay on it” (Philippians 3:12-16 MSG).

I went out to feed a soul
but I was the one who came back full
Dinner on Rock Mill Bridge
By DeAnne Beyer
My heart had longed to be with
her for quite some time, but I always managed to busy myself, instead, with things that ‘needed’
done. One warm sunny afternoon I
made up my mind to free myself to
spend some time with her, to encourage her, to hopefully be a blessing to her.
With much enthusiasm I arrived
at her home but she was not inside.
I settled myself into the old rocking
chair on the front porch, clutching
onto the bright bouquet of flowers
that I had fussed over in choosing
for her; I wanted it to be just right.
I had brought along some old magazines that I thought she might enjoy, and I laid them on the stand
beside me.
With my eyes I continually
searched for her. A smile began to
spread across my face when I saw
her coming in the distance. As she
came closer and closer the excitement began to build inside of me as
I anticipated her reaction concerning this unexpected visitor. Concentrating on her afternoon walk,
the strong lady of 91 years briefly
glanced my way and her face burst
into joy and she rushed to hug me.
It was such a comforting embrace.
She eased herself into the rocking chair next to me and we rocked
as we talked about recent events.
My preconceived concerns that we
would not have much to discuss
quickly faded as the words between
us flowed effortlessly.
The journey of our conversation
slowly led us to the days of her
childhood. I listened intently as she
talked of being raised with over a
dozen siblings. Astonished, I inquired as to how her parents could
afford to feed so many. She chuckled and replied that they raised their
own food. As I tried to digest such
an insurmountable undertaking, I
said, “Surely there were trips to the
grocery store for milk and flour,” to
which she replied, “We raised our

own wheat as well and dad would
take it to the mill to have it ground
into flour.” She then elaborated on
the daily chores that she and her
siblings were required to fulfill before they were free to play outside
until the daylight had faded.
We continued to talk and paused
only briefly from time to time to
take in the luminous white clouds
gliding across the deep blue sky.
We commented on the beauty before us and expressed our appreciation for the refreshing, gentle
breeze caressing our skin.
She continued to share with me
her days of long ago. The simplicity
of life that she spoke of was pulling
at me and I craved to experience it;
I wanted to abandon the noise, the
distractions and stress of the world.
She conceded that life was much
simpler back then, but she said that
it was very demanding physically.
She pondered briefly then remarked
that she believed, though, that the
mental stress of today’s world is
much harder on the body and soul
than good old-fashioned hard work.
As the conversation began to
wind down, she began to share with
me how thankful she was. She was
thankful for our visit, she was
thankful for the beautiful sunshine
and brilliant blue sky. She contin-
Are you ready for a special
treat? Would you like a dinner
served on Rock Mill Covered
Bridge? The Fairfield County
Historical Park Volunteers are
planning a dinner on the bridge
on Sunday, August 21 at 6:00
p.m. They thought early notice
would give all interested a time to
put the event on their calendar
and help the group plan ahead. If
you would like to make reservations, please call the Park office
at 740-681-7249 with your name
and the number who will attend.
ued to exude gratitude with a genuine smile and a light in her eyes that
91 years of life on this earth had not
dimmed. As I sat beside her, soaking in her wisdom, her strength and
gratitude, a part of my soul that had
withered under the weight of the
world was coming back to life.
Moved by a need to make a physical connection, I offered my hand to
her and she quickly grasped it firmly and held it tightly. Complete
peace washed over me in the silence, the simplicity, and realness
of the moment.
Soon, It was time to go, but I
was reluctant to leave the rocking
chair and the comfort of the front
porch. But most of all - I did not
want to leave the strong, peaceful
presence of this great matriarch.
As I drove away, I mused at how
I had gone out to be a blessing, but
had come away overflowing with
blessings myself. I had gone out to
encourage, but had come away so
lifted up. I went out to feed a soul,
but I was the one who came back
full.
Checks should then be made out to
Fairfield County Forever.
The cost of the dinner is $30.00
each, half of which is a tax deductible contribution. The delicious
dinner will be served by Pacers of
Pleasantville. The Park office address is 407 East Main St. Lancaster, 43130.
Park volunteers open the mill
on the weekends from 1:00 p.m. to
4:00 p.m.. The group has mill
items for sale at the mill such as
notecards, photographs, aprons
and Cats’ Meow of the mill. You
can also order items by calling the
office.

Bloom-Carroll Lions
host GOOD picnic
submitted photo
The Bloom-Carroll Lions hosted their annual GOOD picnic at
Slate Run Metro Park on Thursday
evening, June 16. Approximately
80 people, including students, their
families, and club members, enjoyed this year’s potluck picnic.
The GOOD program was begun
by Lion Ron Derry in 1995 when
he began to lose his eyesight as a
result of diabetic retinopathy. At
the time, he was a teacher and a
coach at Watkins Memorial High
School. He knew his life would
change once he lost his eyesight.
He realized then that he could either Go On Or (be) Defeated
(GOOD). He decided to begin a
program to recognize and honor
students who have good attendance, do their homework regularly, behave in the classroom, are
responsible, and are overall good
citizens. This is known as the
GOOD program.

By Katie VanDyne
On Sunday, June 12th, the

Lancaster, Ohio - Earlier this
year, the Fisher Catholic Interact
Club, sponsored by the Lancaster
Rotary Club, traveled to New Rochelle, NY to volunteer for the
Westchester Habitat for Humanity. In appreciation for the club
helping to make the American
dream possible, Habitat for Humanity presented the group with
the American Dream Award.
“The Interact Club at Fisher
Catholic exemplifies the spirit
and principals of Rotary – Service
Above Self,” said Melissa Walker, Lancaster Rotary president.
“We’re honored to sponsor such
dedicated students, and are proud
of their hard work with Habitat
for Humanity. They are truly deserving of this award.”
During the trip, students painted a church fellowship hall and
community center/shelter, moved
rocks and dug trenches at a renovation site, planted flowers and
beautified
a
community
garden/park, and unloaded 100
donated windows to the ReStore.
Additional sponsors of the trip
include Fisher Catholic, Buckeye
Toyota, Fairfield Federal, John
Boone and Ed Shrider.

The Elizabeth Sherman Reese Chapter,
Daughters of the American Revolution, held
the annual Flag Day Luncheon on Thursday,
June 9th, at the Lancaster Country Club to
commemorate the adoption of our nation’s
flag on June 14, 1777.
The Lancaster Police Color Guard, accompanied by piper Shane Ronan, presented
the Flag of the United States of America and
the DAR Flag to open the festivities.
Proclamations were presented by Mayor
Brian Kuhn of Lancaster and Mayor Tammy
Drobina of Carroll. State Regent Sandra
McCann brought greetings from the Ohio
DAR.
The Flag Day speaker was the Honorable
Gerald Stebelton who spoke on the writing
of the United States Constitution. Amazingly, the entire document was completed in
four months, a major contrast to the time
required to complete legislation today, and
the document is still our nation’s foundation.
After the luncheon, guests were treated
to a tribute of patriotic music by Shane
Ronan on the bagpipes, an unusual but stirring presentation.
A certificate in recognition of the proper
display of the flag was presented to Michael
Glorioso by the Chapter. An American Flag
was presented to Holy Trinity Parochial
School in Somerset by U.S. Representative
Steve Stivers’ office. An Ohio State Flag
was presented to Bloom Carroll High
School by State Senator Troy Balderson.
A highlight of the afternoon was the
presentation of membership certificates to
chapter members. Ten year membership certificates were presented to Stacie Borger,
Ruth Eberts, Kay Higgins, Sandra Mills,
Stephanie Mills, Carla Pellitt, Betty Rogers,
Karyn Schneider, Jeanette Schneider, Lorraine Stedman and Marla Weaver. A 20year certificate was awarded to Pat Hartman. Alice Inboden and Beth Sparks received 40-year certificates. A 50-year
certificate was awarded to Judith Haines.
Norma Schoenberger received a certificate
for her 60 years of DAR membership.
The program concluded with the installation of the new officers for the 2016-2019
term by State Regent Sandy McCann. The
new officers are: Regent – Judy Fleming,
Chaplain – Janet Mara, Recording Secretary
– Pat Badgerow, Corresponding Secretary –
Jay Bahnsen, Treasurer – Jean Schmelzer,
Registrar – Elaine Pickrell, Historian – Jo

Orange Rust on
Thornless Blackberries
The fungal disease known
as Orange Rust is beginning to
rear its unique, but strange
symptoms on brambles, which
are also known as cane berries.
Specifically, this fungus most
often infects black and purple
raspberries and sometimes is
found on thornless blackberries, but is not known to infect
red raspberries.
Most often, this fungus is
evident on either thorned
blackberries or purple raspberries.
It
is
classically
diagnosed/identified early on
by the off-colored, yellowish-
green, spindly new cane
growth with the leaves also being twisted or deformed. If
those spindly, elongated canes
are left alone and some leaves
partially develop, the lower
leaf surfaces of those leaves
will develop blister-like masses
(pustules) of yellow-orange
spores.
Everyone wants to know
how to control this disease and
therein lies the problem, because this fungus grows systemically throughout the entire
plant! The recommended and
best control of this fungal disease, is to remove and destroy
ALL OF THE PLANTS, other
than red raspberries, in the
planting. This is due to the root
grafts, which develop easily
and are very common between
plants. Due to these root grafts,
the fungus can rapidly spread
from plant to plant and
throughout the entire planting,
hence the remove and destroy
approach.
It is recommended that no
black or purple raspberries are
planted back in that area for 2-3
years, to ensure that any remaining pieces of roots, if they
begin to grow, can be dug up
and destroyed.

Here are just a few examples that I feel can make a big
difference; holding the door
open for another person, complimenting someone who is
having a stressful day, smiling, telling a loved one that
you value and appreciate
them, calling someone who
you haven't spoken to for a
while, or simply, sincerely
thanking someone who helps
you. This list could go on and
on. It is the little things in life
that matter most. Transform
yourself and others in the process. Can there really be any
greater gift than that.
The mind-body connection is undeniable. How you
feel is directly related to how
well you take care of your
body. It does not take much
effort to make a positive impact on your body. People often feel that they cannot
devote hours a week at the
gym, and then it is not worth
exercising at all. Wrong! Any
movement is good movement.
Thus… Another way to help
your day is to exercise your
stress away! Your metabolism
and hormone systems are optimized to exercise, resulting in
more vitality. Your overall
energy and mental clarity will
improve. You don't necessarily need to sweat a lot, jog long
distances, or spend hours being a gym rat. Simple stretches alone can do wonders.
Incorporating
stretching,
breathing and mind-body
awareness through yoga can
be powerful. The changes I
have seen in the participants
in my yoga classes over time
only reinforces how powerful
your motivated, actions can
be.
If it truly takes 30 days to
form a new habit-then why
not try one of the above strategies for just one month and
see if it hasn't changed yourself for the better. Even if you
do not do all of them at once,
start with a few and enjoy the
infusion of more energy and
joy into your life. There seems
to be no end to the amount of
stressful situations we encounter; but, taking some of
the above simple steps to ease
the burden can go a long way
towards making every day a
better day. Ultimately it helps
you become a better version
of yourself! Enjoy your personal discovery process!

“The Joy of Reaching Out “
Meet Espy and Linda, an
Executive
Assistant
at
JCPenney. Espy was born in the
Bronx, her family from El
Salvador; Linda's family is raised.
Spanish is the primary language
spoken in Espy's home; Linda knows
no Spanish. Espy's mother decided
to enter Espy in the BBBS program,
feeling a Big would be good for her.
Linda's employer, a huge supporter
of BBBS, encouraged employees to
volunteer and Linda knew first-hand
how rewarding volunteering could
be. So it was to become a "match"
between Espy and Linda, meeting
one day a week during lunch as part
of a partnership program with
JCPenney,
BBBS
and
the
Pickerington schools - a match that
has lasted over seven years and is still
going strong!
Espy was a shy little girl whose
confidence needed bolstering and
Linda was prepared to do just that.
Over
the
years Espy's
grades have
improved,
(she plans a
career
in
criminal
justice), and
she
has
blossomed
into a polished, confident young
woman. The bond between Linda
and Espy is so strong that when Linda
retired she decided to continue her
match with Espy and they now meet
outside of the school day in our
community program.
A most fitting end to this
story: Espy now volunteers in her
community hoping to raise funds for
a women's homeless shelter. It just
doesn’t get any better than that! To
learn more about how YOU can make
a difference visit www.bbbsfairfieldoh.org TODAY!
