PERRYSBURG YOUR HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER 1853 1935 Board of education hears first reading on the creation of the Perrysburg Education Foundation Fund By Deb Buker The purpose of an education foundation fund is to financially support operating or capital costs of any existing or new and innovative program that enhances or promotes education in the school district, including scholarships. “It is something that is different,” said Superintendent Tom Hosler at the April 21 meeting of the Perrysburg Board of Education. “It is possible for any public school district to develop its own foundation to handle donations. And very few schools have utilized this.” The superintendent explained that the Perrysburg Schools Foundation, created in 1983, has a primary focus of raising dollars for scholarships and mini grants. “The schools foundation has a volunteer treasurer who tracks the money and makes sure it goes where it needs to Perrysburg High School receives Silver Medal Award from U.S. News & World Report U.S. News & World Report has ranked Perrysburg High School Number 63 in Ohio and number 1,340 in the nation, which again resulted in a Silver Medal award this year. “This award is a testament to the great educators and students in Perrysburg Schools, from kindergarten to 12th grade,” said Dr. Michael Short, Perrysburg High School principal. “At graduation, we see the culmination of 13 years of rigorous and compassionate education. We are very proud of the team we have here, as well as our students’ performance.” go,” said Mr. Hosler. “They have an account set up with the Toledo Community Foundation which holds all the money and issues many of the required tax forms to donors. “But in terms of our school district, if someone wanted to endow a music chair, right now the way it is set up, the money would be PLEASE RECYCLE THIS NEWSPAPER ©WELCH PUBLISHING COMPANY, PERRYSBURG, OHIO, (419) 874-4491 VOLUME 162, NUMBER 18 – APRIL 30, 2014 turned over to our district treasurer and would become part of the general fund with a special earmark. And the investment options because of that status are very, very limited. “Having an endowment for a music chair or something of that nature does not necessarily fit with the Perrysburg Schools Foundation and its mission. “So we began to explore with the attorney what options that we have available within the Ohio Revised Code.” The superintendent also stated with the hiring of a development director in the fall, a menu of options need to be available for perspective donors. “If a perspective donor is interested in mini grants or innovative programs, that certainly is the schools foundation,” said Mr. Hosler. “But if they want to donate $5,000 for art supplies, the schools foundation is really not equipped to do that. “And if we have 25 donors who are all contributing at the same time, the foundation does not have the resources that our treasurer’s office has in terms of handling the financial end. With us engaging maybe up to 10,000 alumni, we really felt that we needed a vehicle here that we could use. “If somebody walked in the door and said they are going to leave a house or stock options or some other type of gift, the school district would not be able to accept it. And with the educational foundation fund, we would able to accept it.” Please turn to page 4➧ 75¢ SINGLE COPY Residents have three options including new green toter City expands yard waste program–‘pay-as-you-throw’ By Deb Buker The City of Perrysburg recently expanded its yard waste collection program to meet the needs of the residents. “City residents now have another choice in the ‘pay-as-you-throw’ program. This was requested by residents after the automated refuse/recycling program was put in place a year ago,” said Judy Hagen, refuse and recycling program coordinator. “Residents pay for curbside yard waste collection as they use it.” Three Options 1. City of Perrysburg paper yard waste bags or tags for bundles of brush. 2. New– Use of a 64 or 96 gallon special green toter used as needed with purchase of a single use tag. 3. New–Weekly collection with a 64 or 96 gallon special green toter with purchase of a season long sticker. Yard waste collection service is subcontracted with Modern Disposal. Curbside yard waste collection is the same day as refuse and recycling collection from April 1 through November 30. “Residents who have large amounts of weekly yard waste may find the special green toter option more convenient than the paper yard waste bags or tags,” added the coordinator. “Yard bags are biodegradable and don’t hold up for long period of time–they do what they are supposed to do. The toters can be used like a wheelbarrow–easier to move around, easier to fill and they don’t tear.” Residents must purchase the green toter with black lid, added Mrs. Hagen. Toter Specifications •The toters used for yard waste collection may not be the same color–blue or grey–as the city-issued refuse and recycle toters. They must be green. •The stop bar must be 16 to 18 inches from the ground to fit the lifting mechanism on the collection truck. •The lift pocket must be 32 to 34 inches from the ground. •If the yard waste toter has the brand name Toter, it will meet specifications. •The Perrysburg Lowe’s store carries both 64 and 96-gallon green toters. The local Wal-Mart stocks the 64-gallon toter. Councilman and chairman of the health, sanitation and public utilities committee Todd Grayson believes the toters are a functional gardening tool. “You can roll it around your garden with ease, fill Please turn to page 2➧ Brodie Optometry to begin construction on new facility City council recognizes PHS wrestling team–Division I state runner up Construction will begin in early June for Brodie Optometry, located at 840 West Boundary Street. The new facility also will include two future tenants. Brodie Optometry is scheduled to begin construction in early June on a new facility at 840 West Boundary Street. The Perrysburg Planning Commission approved the preliminary and final site plans last month. The location, 1.537 acres, is the old Fort Meigs Motel property. The motel has not been in use for lodging and over the past several months the Perrysburg Fire Division has performed training exercises in and around the The Perrysburg High School wrestling team was honored at the April 15 meeting of Perrysburg City Council. The team competed in the state wrestling tournament in Columbus and earned the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) Division I state runner up title. “This is quite an accomplishment,” said Mayor Mike Olmstead. “We are very proud of you and glad to have you here to recognize each of you.” Wrestling Head Coach Sam Cotterman thanked the mayor and members of city council. “This year we won our fourth consecutive NLL title and we were able to take eight of our wrestlers to state,” he told city council. “This is the first time Perrysburg has ever placed in the top 10 in the state and also was the first time in northwest Ohio that anyone has been in the top two since 1974.” The mayor presented each of the state winners a certificate of commendation. Pictured from left are Kadin Llewellyn, JP Newton, Coach Cotterman, Moises Guillen, Mayor Olmstead, Mario Guillen, Dan Waltermeyer, Mark Delas, Cale Bonner and Rocco Caywood. The Yellow Jackets scored 90.5 team points finishing only behind Massillon Perry. The Jackets qualified a school record eight wrestlers to the tournament with six earning All-Ohio honors. Senior Rocco Caywood led the Jackets and became the school’s third state champion. Caywood wrestles at 182 pounds. Also, earning All-Ohio honors for the Jackets were Mario Guillen, placing third at 113 pounds; Moises Guillen, placing seventh at 120 pounds; JP Newton, placing third at 152 pounds, Kadin Llewellyn, placing third at 195 pounds, and Cale Bonner, placing fourth at 285 pounds.

Assistant coaches are Brian Whitner, AJ Coleman and Dave Wyper. Sen. Sherrod Brown promotes higher education legislation U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown visited Perrysburg High School April 21 to discuss with freshmen two pieces of legislation that could impact college affordability for the students. The senator said financing a college education “is a lot harder today than it was a generation ago.” He noted that the cost is vastly different, in part because the funding mechanisms have changed. “Back then, states put a higher investment in college than they do today.” Senator Brown recalled that when his wife graduated, she only had $1,200 in loans. Today, students exit college with an average debt of $30,000–and that figure is increasing. “That’s a problem for your generation and the reason for the legislation I’m U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown with members of the PHS freshman class. addressing today,” he said. Students graduating with huge debts impact the economy because that burden keeps young adults from marrying, buying a house or car and contributing to economic growth, he pointed out. The student loan debt is greater than that of credit cards or car loans and the nationwide $1 trillion student loan debt is only exceeded by mortgage debt. Complicating the situation, is the lack of knowledge students have regarding loans and repayment. Two-thirds of students are unaware of the difference between federal and private loans, he said. Noting that college debt is increasingly viewed as the next big economic “bubble” waiting to burst, he believes the bills will help students deal with their debt. Senator Brown noted that federal loans are easier to pay back and have a lower interest rate. In contrast, many private loans are simi- lar to credit cards with higher interest rates and fees. To help students and their families, two bills have been introduced in the U.S. Senate–Know Before You Owe Act and Student Refinancing Act. Know Before You Owe would amend the Truth in Lending Act to require private lenders to send loan statements to borrowers at least once every three months a student is enrolled in a post-secondary institution and notify the institution in writing of the loan amount and the student to whom it applies. The act also would require institutions of higher education to notify borrowers regarding: •The availability of financial aid assistance, •The right to select their own private educational lenders, •The impact of the proposed private education loan on their eligibility for the financial assistance, Please turn to page 2➧ building. Plans are to demolish the existing structure and construct a new 8,722-square-foot building to house Brodie Optometry as well has two future tenants. Brodie Optometry currently is at 955 Commerce Drive. Dr. Kyle Brodie said the new office space will allow him to increase exam rooms from two to six. “It also will improve the efficiency of our office,” he added. “We will add more staff and another doctor. Also, Primary election to be held Tuesday, May 6 Polls will be open in Perrysburg and Perrysburg Township from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., next Tuesday, May 6, for a primary election. Republican voters will decide on a three-way race for Wood County Commissioner: •Doris Herringshaw of Wingston Road, Bowling Green, the incumbent who has served since January 2013, when she was appointed to the office. •Kristi Kennelly of Pin Oak Court, Perrysburg, who is an administrator at Hondros College of Business in Maumee and worked for the Romney Presidential campaign in Wood County. •James Matuszak of Laurel Lane, Perrysburg, who was sworn in as a new member of Perrysburg City Council in January and owns an accounting firm in Perrysburg. Republican Candidates Republican voters also will decide on the following contested races: •Senate District 2 State Central Committeeman: Ronald LeRoux of West Seventh Street, Perrysburg, or Mark Wagoner of Pelham Road, Toledo. •Senate District 2 State Central Committeewoman: Maureen Alexander of Chestnut Hill Road, Toledo, or Dee Talmage of Exmoor, Toledo. There are no local contested Democratic races. State Issue 1 The only issue on the ballot is State Issue 1, a proposed amendment to the Ohio Constitution to fund public infrastructure projects by permitting the issuance of general obligation bonds. No more than $1.875 billion in bonds would be issued over a 10-year period, with no more than $175 million issued in each of the first five years and no more than $200 million in the last five years. The program has been in place since 1987 and helps fund road, bridge, sewer and other projects in local communities. Funds to repay project bonds are already built into state budget planning, so Issue 1 does not include any increase in taxes. The issue has received bipartisan support. The vote in the Ohio Senate to put Issue 1 on the ballot was 310, and the vote in the House was 90-2. The Board of Elections will report election results Tuesday evening on its website www.co.wood.oh.us/ boe.

The centralized location of the building allows parking to be arranged on three sides of the building. The entrance and exit to the property has been limited to one curb cut that has been located at the request of the planning and zoning adminis- trator to be in alignment with Garfield Drive which is directly across West Boundary Street. The building is a contemporary/modern structure and makes use of glass, manufactured stone, brick and splitface block. The final site plan shows 54 parking spaces with landscaped islands and site landscaping. Dr. Brodie said plans are to be constructed and open by the end of the year. -Deb Buker Perrysburg Weekly Construction Update This is the first of a weekly listing of road work/road closures due to construction.

The refinancing act would enable students and graduates to refinance higher interest rate loans at a lower rate. “Both of these bills focus on private loans and making the costs associated with them more transparent,” said Michelle Simmons, assistant vice president for enrollment management at Bowling Green State University. Both address student and family concerns and provide clarity, she pointed out, reminding students that when possible “borrowing federal is the best choice.” Kelly McVicker, of Toledo, agrees. The college graduate said he had no idea how much his private loans could escalate. He had contacted Sen. Brown’s office when he began having trouble paying off his debt. “No one tells you the ramifications if you don’t pay. They take 15 percent of my paycheck and took my tax return.” Mr. McVicker said he borrowed $46,000 and now owes $70,000 with penalties and fees. He commended the senator for being at the forefront of the legislation. “This will really affect our economy if we don’t get a handle on it,” he added. Sen. Brown cautioned students exploring college options, to “make sure you see all of your [financial] options. The federal loan is almost always the better way to go. There are no hidden fees.” –Jane Maiolo Letters policy The weekly deadline for Letters to the Editor is noon on Friday. Letters should be limited to 300 words.

Business News This week, Fifth Third Bank exceeded $1 million in donations to Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), with more than $500,000 in donations from the recent “Pay to the Order of” campaign. The “Pay to the Order of” campaign was launched in January and leverages new checking accounts to help drive donations for cancer research. For each new customer who opened a checking account with direct deposit and makes three online bill payments, Fifth Third will give $150 to the customer and donate $150 to SU2C, a groundbreaking initiative that supports scientific collaboration to accelerate innovative cancer research and bring new therapies to patients quickly. Fifth Third began working with SU2C in 2013 when the bank launched the Fifth Third SU2C credit and debit cards, which direct donations to SU2C for every qualifying purchase made using those cards. Fifth Third Bank is the only card issuer to offer SU2C payment cards and contributed more than $534,000 to SU2C in 2013. The “Pay to the Order of” campaign also engages others– including current customers–by asking consumers to upload a photo at 53.com/SU2C or use the hashtag #PayToTheOrderOf to share who they are fighting for. “We have been extremely pleased with the level of engagement at our branches, on social media and among bank employees throughout the ‘Pay to the Order of’ campaign,” said Maria Veltre, senior vice president and chief marketing officer, Fifth Third Bank. “The stories that surfaced and the connections made have been inspirational and beyond what we could have ever hoped for. We are so pleased to help drive additional funds to SU2C to help Fifth Third Bank surpass $1 million donated since we began our relationship one year ago.” About Stand Up To Cancer: Stand Up To Cancer—a program of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), a 501(c) (3) charitable organization—raises funds to accelerate the pace of groundbreaking translational research that can get new therapies to patients quickly and save lives. SU2C facilitates collaboration among the best and the brightest in the cancer research community. The American Association for Cancer Research and a scientific advisory committee led by Nobel Laureate Phillip A. Sharp, Ph.D., conduct rigorous, competitive review processes through which SU2C’s grantees are selected. By galvanizing the entertainment industry, SU2C generates awareness and builds grassroots support for this new approach to ending cancer. Perrysburg’s ONLY Full Service Car Wash!

In addition to seeing living history, students used French in context to order food, read museum displays, ask directions, make purchases and to speak with their tour guide, Jordane Pinceau, a native of Nantes, France. Students immersed themselves in culture, touring grocery stores, buying crepes on the street, navigating the métro in Paris, eating a daily croissant and café au lait at breakfast and even eating escargots for dinner. French television at night in the hotel room–and French spoken everywhere by day–made classroom lessons immediately relevant. Pre-trip preparation included nine parent meetings, nine student educational meetings and fund-raising to help students defray expenses.

House passes education bill Fort Industry Chapter of DAR gets sneak State Representatives Tim Brown and Cliff Rosenberger announce passage of their jointly sponsored bill, House Bill 484, legislation that modifies laws regarding the state’s colleges and universities, from the Ohio House of Representatives. One of the many bills within the governor’s Mid-Biennial Review, House Bill 484 authorizes community colleges to create a tuition guarantee program, where schools establish a tuition cost for incoming freshmen with the promise that the costs will not increase over the course of the student’s time at the college. This bill includes new performance based funding formulas for both Ohio community colleges and technical centers that are based on student outcomes and attainment. “HB 484 was a collaborative effort of the Higher Education Community,” said Mr. Rosenberger, who joint-sponsored the legislation with Rep. Brown. “It represents a benchmark that Ohio is trying to set for higher education as a whole. We continue in our attempt to provide greater access and attainment for all Ohioans. This bill encourages schools to strive for student success by rewarding student achievement. It also provides a frameworks to use innovative strategies to allow families to better prepare for the cost of higher education. Finally, we recognize the need for continued conversation and evaluation of our current programs and we have required a vision of progress, due to the Chancellor by December 2014.” Additionally, the bill creates the Higher Education Stu- dent Financial Aid Workgroup to examine the range of student financial aid in Ohio and submit recommendations to the Governor and the General Assembly by the end of this year. The workgroup consists of the Chancellor of the Board of Regents, members from several associations representing universities and community colleges, state legislators, and representatives from the Ohio Department of Veterans Services and the Ohio Association of Student Financial Aid Officers. “I am pleased to co-sponsor a bill with such broad collaborative partners. We worked with the governor's office, our community colleges, the Chancellor of the Board of Regents, and others to formulate initiatives that will benefit both students and our colleges and universities. Our overall focus is on greater student graduation rates and outcomes, and this bill certainly helps,” said Representative Brown. HB 484 also repeals existing enrollment limits for the central campuses of Bowling Green State University, Kent State University, Miami University, Ohio University and the Ohio State University. Finally, the legislation requires each state university, as well as the Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED), to issue a report of its faculty workload policy and practices, and to submit recommendations to the Chancellor of the Board of Regents to modify those policies by June 30, 2017. House Bill 484 now heads to the Ohio Senate for further consideration.

Mr. Baranowski selected about 20 historical photos from the 175 included in the book to show DAR members, some of whom have relatives and friends interviewed for the book. Of particular interest were photos of Munger Brothers Meat Market established in 1879; the 1880 saloon operated by Philip Artz; a 1912 bakery truck used by Art Thornton; Perrysburg’s first motorized fire truck (1916), and a local whiskey still confiscated by federal agents during Prohibition. Out of the 50 oral histories documented in the book, three are devoted to local organizations: the Bee Hive, the Fire Department and Richard Baranowski with his book, “Perrysburg Village Voices: Hometown Stories of the Past.” Country Garden Club. The book’s foreword was written by Wayne Leatherman, Perrysburg’s first Municipal Court Judge. The “Perrysburg Village Voices” book is scheduled to be published in 2015, as part of the approaching Perrysburg Bicentennial celebration in 2016. The Fort Indus- try Chapter of the DAR has helped Mr. Baranowski apply for a matching grant from the National DAR headquarters to help defray publication costs.

Jordan was awarded “Player of the Game” based on his pitching performance. He pitched eight innings, giving up only three hits and no runs, one strikeout and one walk while Archbold senior pitcher C. Wyse went the distance himself giving up four hits on one run. Jordan had excellent control of his pitches, mixing up speeds and getting a lot of ground ball outs. The defense for Perrysburg gave him the support he needed with only one error. The top hitters for Perrysburg, each with one hit, were Nick Fleming, AJ Stockwell, Trevor Hafner and Gus Dimmerling with the game winning hit in the bottom of the eighth inning to score Zach Zam. PHS vs. Anthony Wayne On Monday, April 21, the team hosted their Northern Lakes League rival Anthony Wayne Generals. The Jackets, coming off a five-game win streak, looked to keep it going and that’s just what happened. On the mound starting for Perrysburg was senior Mark Delas (2-0-1) record on the season. Delas had his fastball working early in the game along with a curveball that allowed him to strikeout six Anthony Wayne General batters in the first three innings of play. The Generals scored first with one run in the top of the second inning off two hits, but Perrysburg struck back in the bottom of the second inning with three runs due to a sharp single by Jordan to the left side to score Stockwell, a couple of fielding errors by the gener- als and then a single by Zach Honsberger scoring Seth Durham from second base. Perrysburg scored another two runs in the bottom of the third inning on a couple of walks, double and single giving Perrysburg the lead after three innings of play with a score of 5-1. The Generals scored one run in the top of the seventh inning on a single and a couple of errors by the Jackets but Perrysburg held on to win the game 5-2. Delas went the distance giving up five hits, striking out seven and walking three. For the Generals, senior pitcher Josh Schwerer took the loss, giving up five runs on six hits and walking four. The Jackets had five hitters–Honsberger, Fleming, Dimmerling, Jordan and Durham–with at least one hit. PHS vs. Clay On Tuesday, April 22, the Yellow Jackets traveled to Oregon, to take on the Clay Eagles in a non-conference game. Looking to keep the six game winning streak alive, Perrysburg’s Head Coach Dave Hall called on senior right hand pitcher Bobby Borger. He had commanding control of his curveball throughout the game and was able to keep the Eagles off balance with their hit- ting. Borger went 5-2/3 innings, giving up only two runs to a very good hitting ball club and striking out five while facing 26 batters. Kaleb Mahler came in to close out the last inning and a third, giving up one run and striking out one while facing 10 batters. The final score was Perrysburg, 12; Clay, 3. Perrysburg had a big game with a total of 13 hits and scoring 12 runs. The big hit came from senior Fleming in the bottom of the second inning, which was a three-run homerun over the left field fence. Nick went two-for three, with three RBIs and was awarded Player of the Game. There were 10 Jacket batters with at least one hit, and this proved to be a big team win. Players with at least two hits were Honsberger, Dimmerling and Fleming. Freshman Connor Meredith was put in late in the game for his first taste of varsity baseball and it turned out to be a game he will remember. He had one fly ball putout in left field and a bases loaded single in the top of the seventh inning to score one run. The overall record for the Jackets is 8-1 and 3-0 in NLL league play.

Area floral designers bring their artistic talents to Art in Bloom at Toledo Museum of Art May 8-11 The artistic talents of area floral designers will be in the spotlight during Art in Bloom, May 8-11, at the Toledo Museum of Art. A dozen professional florist and glass artist teams have collaborated on making one-of-a-kind vessels that are part of floral arrangements to be displayed throughout the Glass Pavilion. In the Main Museum, 23 garden clubs and individual non-professional designers are creating floral arrangements inspired by the museum’s art collection. TMA visitors can enjoy the free floral displays during regular Museum hours over the four days. Professional florists participating in Art in Bloom include: Keith Brooks, Sylvania; Angel Elden of Angel & Co., Perrysburg; Lin Geiman of David Swesey Florist, Maumee; Dan Hafner of Hafner Florist, Holland; Cheryl Howald of Myrtle Flowers & Gifts, Toledo; Denise Lambes of Glendale Flowers, Toledo; Mary Beth Lorenzen of Schramm's Flowers, Toledo; Ken Myrice of Emery’s Flowers & Co., Maumee; Karen Nagy of Joe I. Cooper Florist, Waterville; Lisa Nickel of Enchanted Flowers & Gifts, Millbury; Molly Pierce of Ken’s Flower Shops, Perrysburg, and Lauren Viviano of Bartz Viviano Flowers & Gifts, Toledo. Organized by the museum’s Ambassadors volunteer group, Art in Bloom takes the celebration of all things floral further. They also have planned a black-tie gala where arrangements created by the professional florists will be auctioned to the highest bidder, a talk by and floral wreath workshop with Southern Living editor-at-large Hey Perrysburg!

Art in Bloom events have been part of fund-raising efforts for museums across the country for decades, but the Toledo Museum of Art’s role as the birthplace of the Studio Glass Movement provides a special perspective, according to Director Brian Kennedy. “Glass is an essential part of our legacy, and it’s a medium we continue to explore in new ways,” said Mr. Kennedy. “Introducing the vessel as an equal part of the floral arrangement will be a unique visual opportunity.” The festivities also bring a garden-inspired season to a close at the museum, as they coincide with the last days to see The Art of the Louvre’s Tuileries Garden. The show, which closes May 11, examines the landscape architecture of the Parisian park and its role as a muse to artists with sculpture, paintings, photographs and architectural models.

Thousands of women worked to support the war effort as riveters, welders, electricians, inspectors in plants, sewing clothing and parachutes for the military, ordnance workers, rolling bandages, clerical and many other jobs such as volunteer workers collecting scrap metals and other critical materials. These women have stories of their World War II experiences that are of historical value and perhaps have never been told. The American Rosie the Riveter Association would like to acknowledge these women with a certificate and have their stories placed in its archives. Any woman who worked during World War II or her descendant can call the toll free number at 1-888-5576743 or send an email to americanrosietheriveter2@ yahoo.com.

PERRYSBURG MESSENGER JOURNAL — April 30, 2014 — Page 13 Fire and Safety Tips from the Perrysburg Firefighters Local 3331 9-Volt Battery Hazards 9-volt batteries can be dangerous due to the closeness of the positive and negative posts. If a metal object touches both posts of the battery, it can cause a short circuit and can make enough heat to start a fire. It is unsafe to store 9-volt batteries in a drawer near paper clips, coins, pens or other batteries. Also, do not store common household items such as steel wool, aluminum foil and keys near 9-volt batteries. If these items touch the two posts, there is a greater risk of a fire starting. Weak batteries may have enough charge to cause a fire. Fires can happen when 9-volt batteries are thrown in the trash with other metal items. Storing 9-volt batteries: Keep batteries in original packaging until ready to use. If batteries are not packaged, keep the posts covered with masking, duct or electrical tape. Prevent the posts from coming in contact with metal objects. Preparing students for OGT, GED, ACT, SAT Send your news item to: newsforall@ perrysburg.com FREE INITIAL CONSULTATION!

Toledo Rep to present ‘Moonglow’ May 8-11 Special event performances of “Moonglow” will be presented at the Toledo Repertoire Theatre Mother’s Day weekend, May 8-11, in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter. A comic-drama written Kim Carney and directed by Paul Causman, the play will feature Madge Levinson as Maxine, a woman at the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, who is unwillingly moved into an assisted living facility after a kitchen fire and an incident that injures her grandson. Maxine’s attitude begins to change once she meets another elderly resident, Joe, played by Guy Sutherland, and the two discover a mutual connection having both danced at a popular Detroit ballroom in the early ’40s. Through their diseased fog of confusion and sometimes humorous remains of a memory, a relationship is born. “Moonglow” is based on a true story of the author and her own mother and addresses the experience of making unsettling decisions of how to care for elderly parents. The cast also includes: Jeffrey Albright as Greg; Vickie Jackson as Diane; Thomas French as the sailor; Alana Eddy as the girl; Cindy Bilby as Benita, and the stage direction will be narrated by Carol Ann Erford. Performances Thursday through Saturday will begin at 8 p.m.; Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Tickets cost $15. This program has been approved for 2.5 continuing professional education for social workers. The Alzheimer's Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter is an approved provider of social worker CPE by the State of Ohio Counselor, Social Worker & Marriage and Family Therapist Board #RSX059702.

To further support their position as communities of choice and distinguished living environment, Kingston Healthcare has focused their website redevelopment efforts on ease of use, enhanced search and increased functionality to keep content, news and facility information up to date. The look of the new website was designed to highlight the facility amenities and activities as well as the quality of living atmosphere at Kingston. “We are thrilled to offer a site that showcases our beautiful facilities as well as the genuine Kingston experience and care we give to all of our residents and patients,” said Joanna Hunter, executive director of marketing at Kingston Healthcare. The site was created using a responsive approach which reacts to the size of the device being used, making a more effective experience on a desktop, tablet or mobile device. The navigation and search were improved to quickly and easily direct users to the information they need. The Kingston website marketing portal offers associates access to a central repository marketing materials from any location, while the administrative side gives associates the power to easily update information and keep the content fresh. The newly created Kingston Facebook page marks their first step into social media. Here Kingston offers health related tips and articles from trusted resources. Their Facebook page also offers staff and resident testimonials, upcoming events and additional content not found on the website. The Kingston Facebook page uses many design elements found on the newly redesigned website. Kingston Residence of Perrysburg, an assisted living community, has been recognized as a top assisted living facility in the state by the Ohio Department of Aging. The honor places them in the top 10 out of more than 660 facilities in Ohio, and the only facility in northwest Ohio to receive this designation. Residents were surveyed during face-to-face interviews, as directed by the Ohio Department of Aging. Residents were asked to rate their satisfaction on a variety of site qualities including environment, staff, dining, therapy and overall satisfaction, among others. The results were based solely on each resident’s experiences, not on family member or facility employee input. “It is such an honor to have been recognized by our Kingston residents as the number one assisted living facility in northwest Ohio and among the top 2 percent in the state. I am extremely proud of all our Kingston employees and their continued dedication to our residents,” said Karen Burnard, executive director, Kingston Residence of Perrysburg.

The program calls attention to the importance of pets to the well-being of homebound seniors. Helping keep these companion pets well fed, healthy and part of the family for as long as possible became the motivating factor behind the campaign. This past winter, Mobile Meals of Toledo collected pet food from the community to assist meal clients in feeding their pets. Toledo area Banfield–The Pet Hospital locations, the Andersons General Stores, Graber’s Animal Hospital, Johns Manville employees and Crafters Who Care helped to collect the donated pet food, treats and toys during the months of November and December. More than 5,000 pounds of pet food was collected and due to the overwhelming success of the campaign, another pet food delivery will take place mid-summer to Mobile Meals’ clients. Ninety-six meal clients asked for assistance this holiday season in feeding their Exchange set Some of the pet food collected during the Season of Suppers campaign. pets. The program helped feed more than 175 animals that included 93 dogs; more than 71 cats; seven birds; two rabbits; one ferret and one fish. “We know that many of our clients are compromising their own nutrition by sharing their meals with their pets, often their best friend and companion. The more service Mobile Meals can provide for pets leads to better health and a longer life for both the meal client and their pet,” said Carolyn Fox, associate executive director of Mobile Meals. For further information, call the Mobile Meals office at 419-255-7806.

PETS Humane Ohio Pet Food Bank welcomes pet food donations to help meet the demand. Dry and wet dog and cat food can be dropped off at Humane Ohio (3131Tremainsville) from 7:30 am - 5 pm Monday through Friday. We are a non-profit organization. tXXXIVNBOFPIJPPSH XXXGBDFCPPLDPNIVNBOFPIJP Wood County Humane Society’s PETS OF THE WEEK Adeline is something of a local celebrity, having been featured just this past week on WTOL’s Saturday morning show. Originally Adeline came to the WCHS as part of a cruelty/neglect case and she was severely underweight. Now, she is at a healthy weight and ready to find her forever home. Adeline is a senior, female boxer with an incredibly sweet disposition and well-mannered personality. She is active and playful. She also knows and responds well to basic commands. Because Adeline is a particular favorite at the WCHS, her adoption fee has been sponsored by one of our longtime volunteers in hopes to get Adeline placed in the perfect home where she can live out her Golden Girl years. Ducky is a long-haired senior female who was brought to the WCHS after living outdoors for quite some time. She enjoys napping, especially with her best pal Steve-O. In fact, it would be fantastic if Ducky and Steve-O could find a forever home together since the two are inseparable! Ducky would be best suited for a quiet home free of children and with a human companion who would enjoy regularly brushing her beautiful, silky coat. An added bonus for her would be a cat tree, since Ducky loves scaling to the highest reaches of the cat towers and can often be found perched on one of the shelves in the cat room at the shelter. Ducky’s best bud Steve-O is a reserved young lad. He likes to spend his days bird watching or cuddling with Ducky in the cat room. He would love to find a home with her because they are always together! It can take a while for him to warm up to strangers, but once he gets to know you, he loves to be petted and cuddled. Bring this ad to the Humane Society and receive $10 off the adoption of our featured animals of the week! Please visit or call the Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339 to learn more about these great pets. All of our adoptable animals can be viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.
