The RBA is now gearing up for the 10th annual Business Fair, inviting area businesses to participate. The Business Fair will take place on Saturday, March 28, at Owens Community College in the Student Health and Activities Center from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. To receive the discounted “early-bird” booth registration fee of $85 for RBA members and $135 for nonmembers, businesses must sign up by Friday, January 30. After the early bird date, the participation fees will increase to $110 for members and $160 for non-members. Registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. “We at the RBA feel great to have 10 years under our belt of organizing the Business Fair,” said Justin Knierim of Edward Jones Investments, who is the RBA president and fair co-chairman. “It is an event that has grown both in attendance and participation. We are proud to report that we average 70 plus vendors and more than 1,500 patrons. This is a great opportunity for our vendors to showcase their goods and services while supporting the community at the same time.” This will be the fourth year for the Business Fair to take place at Owens, Mr. Knierim said. “The location offers us handicap accessibility, ample parking, all vendors in one location, a larger food selection for our attendees, and a separate area for the entertainment,” he explained. Mr. Knierim encouraged businesses to send in their reservations early to secure a spot at this year’s fair. “The economy has been recovering over the past five years and with that consumer spending typically increases,” he noted. “With that said, competition is real and as local businesses we need to be networking and advertising to the best of our ability.” “This is a very efficient and inexpensive way to get in front of hundreds of people and let them know what you have to offer and are about,” Mr. Knierim explained. Businesses also are invited to make a donation to the fair and become a Gold, Silver or Bronze sponsor. The Gold level is $1,000, Silver is $500 and Bronze is $250. Gold sponsors already committed are Hollywood Casino and Meijer. The executive committee planning the event with Mr. Knierim includes co-chair Ivan Kovacevic of the Rossford Community Recreation Center, Brenda Schwind of Directions Credit Union, Ray Miller of Miller Younker Group, Dr. Angela Jackson of Quality Family Eyecare, Cindi Selz of the Rossford Public Library and Lori Keller of Farmers and Merchants Bank. The business fair will feature giveaway items and food samples for visitors. Entertainment will include Diane’s Dancing Delights, the Rossford Elementary Band and Positive Image Dance Studio. A registration form is found on page 2 of today’s newspaper or visit the RBA website at www.rossford ba.com. For more information, call Mr. Knierim at 419-6661910, Mrs. Schwind at 419720-4701 or Mr. Miller at 419-666-9740. RHS debuts ‘I Never Saw Another Butterfly’ this week The Rossford High School Drama Club will present “I Never Saw Another Butterfly,” this Thursday through Sunday, January 15 to 18. Thursday through Saturday performances are at 7:30 p.m. and a Sunday matinee will be at 2 p.m. on the Wilcox Stage in the RHS auditorium. All seats are $6, general admission. The play by Celeste Raspanti presents a real life account of the children who were held in the Terezin concentration camp during World War II. During their time at the camp, the children secretly created works of art, poetry, opera and theater that was hidden from the Nazis and only discovered after the Nazi regime. The one act drama follows Raja Englanderova’s experience as a young girl living in the camp. During this time of despair, there is a small beacon of hope for all of the children–Irena Synkova, who has dedicated her life to being a teacher. She encourages them to creatively express their feelings. Meanwhile, Raja also befriends a young revolutionary, Honza Kosek. Their friendship blooms despite the danger of the Nazis discovering their relationship. Together they unite the segregated boys’ and girls’ houses, in the form of a secret newspaper, Vedem. Although Raja’s story is permeated with loss and anguish, it also is infused with love and hope. Raja learns the only way to survive is through the companionship forged out of the shared horror. The production is directed by Julie Zatko and Ryan Mahaffey. Visitors Bureau opens new office in Rossford Doris Herringshaw sworn in as Wood Co. Commissioner Doris Herringshaw was sworn into office last week as a Wood County Commissioner for a four-year term. She was accompanied by, from left, her daughter and son, Sarah and Brian, and husband Paul. Mrs. Herringshaw took the oath of office administered by Wood County Judge David Woessner. In January 2013, she was appointed as a county commissioner to complete the unexpired term of Commissioner Tim Brown, following his election to the Ohio House of Representatives. In November, Mrs. Herringshaw was elected by county voters to continue as commissioner. Previously, she was employed by Ohio State University Extension as an educator and ended her career as an area leader supervising 10 counties. Mrs. Herringshaw earned a bachelor’s degree from Kent State University, and two advanced degrees from Bowling Green State University. She has been a resident of Wood County for more than 35 years and lives with her husband in Liberty Township. Trustees consider onstreet parking request A request to prohibit onstreet parking along Stonecroft Drive is under consideration by the Perrysburg Township trustees. At the January 7 meeting, the trustees reviewed a petition signed by more than two dozen Stonecroft residents. They are asking that parking on the street off of East River Road be banned between the hours of 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. In a written statement, they contend that heavy construction vehicles have been parking on the road, causing excessive damage to the street and depositing debris. The residents noted that the vehicles are hindering postal delivery and trash pickup and expressed concern about the ability of first responders to access residents’ homes in the event of an emergency. Trustee Bob Mack said the parking ban could pose a problem when families have gatherings. “Where are they going to park?” he asked. Trustee Gary Britten does not believe it will be an issue since most family gatherings will be after 6 p.m. or on weekends. Administrator Walt Celley acknowledged that the residents “get a lot of construction traffic during the day” due to a nearby construction project. Other Business In other business, the trustees: •Appointed Mr. Mack as chairman of the board and trustee Craig LaHote as vice chairman. •Approved the purchase of uninterruptible power source battery units at a cost not to exceed $12,000. The units will serve as back-up electricity for township facilities in the event of a power outage. •Accepted the resignation of Officer Troy Wallace of the police department, effective December 15. •Approved a request from Fire Chief Tom Brice to apply for two grants through the Ohio Department of Commerce, state fire marshal. If awarded, the funds will be used to offset training and equipment costs. •Instituted a no engine brake policy for trucks traveling on Glenwood between U.S. Route 20 and Buck Road and on Latcha Road between Glenwood and Oregon roads. •Heard from Bob Warnimont, recreation director and co-chair of Operation Breadbasket, that the annual event went well. with organizers providing food, clothing, toys and other items to 111 local families. “It’s a great thing for the whole community,” said Mr. Warnimont. Mr. Britten expressed appreciation to the recreation director. “You don’t take enough credit for what you do around here,” he said, adding that he believes the event is important to residents who need help, especially during the holidays. The next trustees meeting is at 6 p.m., Wednesday, January 21, at the township meeting hall, 26609 Lime City Road, and is open to the public. By Beth Church The new year is bringing a new location for the Rossford Convention and Visitors Bureau–and hopefully, a new crowd of visitors and travelers into the community. “It’s time for us to grow and have a presence in Rossford,” said CVB director Beth Genson. The office is now located in the business complex at 1001 Dixie Highway, where visitors are greeted by administrative assistant Mary Schaller. Mrs. Schaller will be working with the public “to be the face of the bureau,” answering questions and directing visitors to the information they need. “She helps us expand our mission,” Mrs. Genson added. Mrs. Schaller, a 33-year Rossford resident with her husband Joe, said she is eager to begin her new duties. “It’s something different and challenging,” she explained. “And it’s for the community.” The Rossford CVB was founded in 2011 to promote Rossford attractions and businesses to visitors, who come to eat, shop, play, stay overnight and do business. It is funded by a 6 percent bed tax paid by all guests at Rossford hotels. The bureau had been operating for several years as a partnership with the Bowling Green CVB, but now will operate independently, Mrs. Genson said. The recession was difficult, but she believes the local economy is improving. “Things are starting to happen,” she said, noting the opening of Camping World in the Crossroads, and another hotel under construction along State Route 795. The CVB has created a website, www.visitrossfordohio. com, and published At the new CVB office are, from left: local businessman John Rust Jr., chairman of the CVB board of directors; Beth Genson, CVB director, and Mary Schaller, administrative assistant. They will host a grand opening at the office in February. 20,000 copies of a visitors guide. The guide is available at rest stops along the Ohio Turnpike and I-75, and at visitors centers in Cleveland, Detroit and Fort Wayne. Local businesses also are invited to distribute visitors guides, and copies can be picked up at the CVB office. Canadian visitors are a new market that the bureau is trying to reach, according to Mrs. Genson. “We are promoting Rossford to Canadians who travel to the U.S.,” she said, either specifically coming to northwest Ohio or traveling through the area to go south. Previously, visitors had to stay seven nights in the United States to bring $750 of purchases duty-free back home to Canada. A change in the law has reduced that to a two-night stay. “They can come here, shop, visit the casino, eat in our restaurants, maybe go to Toledo or Grand K of C to host free throw contest Rossford Knights of Columbus of Holy Cross Council #5139 will sponsor its annual free throw contest on Monday, January 19–Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The local competition will be held in the All Saints McAlear Activities Center located on Lime City Road. Registration begins at 12:30 p.m., and the competition runs from 1 to 3 p.m. All boys and girls, ages 10 to 14, are eligible to participate. A euchre tournament to benefit the Golden Retriever Rescue organization will be held Saturday, January 24.

Mrs. Genson encouraged local residents to consider Rossford as a location for regional and statewide business meetings or organization conventions. “If you have a group that might host a meeting, we will work free of charge with the organization or company,” she explained. “We’ll work with the Journal readers are everywhere The top free throw shooter in each age group will advance to the district competition.

In Wood County, the sales tax is only 6.75 percent, compared to Canada’s 13 percent sales tax. “We feel we’re a really good stop for our Canadian visitors,” she said. In addition, the CVB is placing advertisements in all three issues this year of “Crossings,” an Ontario magazine for cross- hotels, the caterers, and help you with planning activities or after-hour events. Maybe the group wants a tour of Bass Pro behind the scenes or a wine tasting at Corks.” Several local union halls in the Crossroads can accommodate meetings for as many as 300 people, she added. The hotels on Clark Drive are conveniently located at I-75 and the turnpike, with lots of parking and easy access to Toledo. Funds are available for local groups or businesses planning events that draw visitors to Rossford. The CVB also coordinates tour groups visiting the city. Mrs. Genson will be participating in the Heartland Travel Showcase in Chicago during February. There she will meet with tour operators bringing travelers through the area on bus tours. Rossford businessman John Rust Jr., chairman of the CVB board of directors, said he is proud of the CVB’s progress. “We’re trying to promote Rossford, to promote the area and to promote Rossford businesses,” he said.

Latta supports bills approving pipeline project, hiring veterans Your Retirement ement Journey J Begins B Here He H e 702 Commerce Drive Suite #130 Perrysburg, OH 43551 419-872-0204 CitizenAdvisory.com Investment Advisory services are off ffeered through Alphastar Capital Managementt, LLC, a SEC Registered Invvestmen nt Advisor.Alphastar Capital Managemen nt, LLC and Citizen Advisory Group, Ltd. are independent entities. Last week, during the beginning of the 114th Congress, Congressman Bob Latta joined colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives in passing three pieces of legislation to address issues with Obamacare and approve the Keystone XL Pipeline. HR 30, the Save American Workers Act, will help increase hours and wages by eliminating the 30-hour definition of full-time employee in President Barack Obama’s health care law and restoring the 40-hour work week. “Repealing the 30-hour penalty under Obamacare– a rule that especially hurts low income workers and women –will ensure that hardworking Americans don’t see their paychecks cut,” Congressman Latta said. “When many are still struggling to make ends meet, this legislation puts Americans’ priorities first and ensures workers can take full advantage of opportunities to provide for their families.” In addition, HR 24, the Hire More Heroes Act, which passed with unanimous support, gives incentives to small businesses to hire more veterans by exempting those who already receive health insurance through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) or Tricare from being counted toward the 50-employee mandate under Obamacare. “An integral part of veterans’ assimilation to civilian life is their ability to find jobs and provide for their families,” Mr. Latta explained. “The Hire More Heroes Act is a common sense, bipartisan solution that encourages small businesses to hire more of our nation’s heroes by exempting veterans from the employer mandate if they already receive health insurance through the VA or Tricare. I am proud to join my colleagues in the House in unanimous support of this legislation that both supports our veterans and promotes small businesses’ ability to grow and prosper.” Finally, HR 3, the Keystone XL Pipeline Act, approves construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would create more than 40,000 jobs and help make the United States more North American energy independent by moving 830,000 barrels of oil per day, the congressman said. This was the 10th time the House had approved legislation to approve the pipeline, and President Obama has threatened to veto the bill due to ongoing litigation in Nebraska. However, the Nebraska Supreme Court removed this major legal obstacle today with its ruling, Mr. Latta said. “We have waited more than six years for construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline to be approved– valuable time that could have gone to creating the tens of thousands of jobs and energy security and independence this project will bring,” he said. “Delaying this project any further is not an option.” Jennings Road pump station–Work involves a new pump station in the park, and partial removal and abandonment of the existing pump station near the end of Jennings. Exercise caution when using park facilities. Pump station building has been installed. Contractor is working on electrical.

But for the United States, change in India brings its own set of unknowns, heralding an age ruled by a prime minister new to national office and other policymakers who have been out of the public eye for a decade. Now, the United States has to determine how to best secure its interests as India asserts itself on the world stage. •January 31–“U.S Policy Towards Africa” with Judy Pfaffenberger. Africa is in the midst of an unprecedented transformation. The continent is home to some of the fastest growing economies in the world, and it’s become a draw for foreign investors from across the globe. After the “Obamamania” of 2008 died down, though, the realization that Obama wasn’t going to overturn, or even prioritize, U.S. Africa policy kicked in. Still, the U.S. has promised to promote “strong institutions, not strong men,” and to favor good governance and healthy economies over profit. How can U.S. policy live up to its promise and values while securing its interests in the region? •Saturday, February 7– “Privacy in the Digital Age ,” with Dr. Stefan Fritsch. The idea of “privacy” has undergone significant changes in the digital age, as has the idea of privacy “harm.” Fearful of British spying, influence and intervention, the founding fathers granted citizens significant protections in the Constitution. Now, the tables have turned: Concerns about what some see as a U.S. “dragnet” and unwarranted privacy intrusions have compelled other countries to revamp their own privacy protections. Legislation, both at home and abroad, hasn’t kept pace with technological developments, leaving some wondering if privacy as we ~ ACUPUNCTURE ~ DR. Z’S ACUPUNCTURE CLINIC, INC. Norman G. Zavela, MD, DABMA Acupuncturist, Board Certified Low back pain Headaches know it is long dead. •February 14–“Russia and the Near Abroad” with Dr. Marc Simon. As the movement later known as the Euromaidan, or “Euro Square,” pulled western Ukraine closer to its European neighbors, another powerful force threatened to tear away the country’s eastern half: Russia. Putin’s pushback against European expansionism has the West wondering: If Putin’s Russia isn’t afraid to take an aggressive stance against Europeanization in Ukraine, what does that mean for the rest of Russia’s neighbors? •February 21–“Human Trafficking in the 21st Century” with Fanell Williams. Human trafficking represents a multibillion in international trade per annum and continues to be one of the fastest growing criminal industries. While undeniably a global phenomenon, the U.S., as one of the world’s leading human trafficking importers, bears a special responsibility to combat this practice. •February 28–“Brazil’s Metamorphosis” (speaker to be announced). Brazil–it’s the “B” in the acronym BRICS, five emerging economies once seen as soon-to-be superpowers. After economic troubles in the 1990s, Brazil has risen to new global prominence–it’s drawing in more investment, working on global issues ranging from climate change to peacekeeping, and even hosting the 2016 Olympics. But some of Brazil’s trickiest problems– deep divisions over how to tackle serious income inequality, weak civic institutions and poor regional leadership–have held it back.

Mr. Kilpatrick will provide leadership and direction to a 24member department that coordinates services for individuals with developmental disabilities to increase their skills, capabilities and independence. “Claude is dedicated to respectfully serving and supporting individuals with developmental disabilities to achieve a quality of life they determine,” said Wood Lane Superintendent Melanie Stretchbery. Mr. Kilpatrick has an extensive history with Wood Lane. His experience began in 1986 when he worked as a substitute residential assistant. His most recent position was service coordinator of intake and eligibility. In his 27 years of service, he has held eight positions with Wood Lane. He has a bachelor of science degree in education from Bowling Green State University, and a master’s degree in rehabilitation counsel- ing from BGSU. He also holds four certifications from the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities. When asked why he chose this career field, Mr. Kilpatrick said, “It chose me. I thought I wanted to be a teacher, but then I began working at Wood Lane and before I knew it, I just couldn’t leave.” Mr. Kilpatrick encourages families to contact Wood Lane with any questions they may have. “The staff is extremely knowledgeable and eager to help in any way they can,” said Mr. Kilpatrick.

Dr. Richard Goldberg, chief executive officer of Behavioral Connections of Wood County, Inc. recently retired, bringing a close to a career of more than 40 years. Dr. Goldberg began his career at Behavioral Connections in 1999 as the newly appointed CEO. He was faced with the task of integrating three organizations that had recently merged to form Behavioral Connections. The agency now has a walk-in clinic at 27072 Carronade Drive, Perrysburg. In addition to his previous roles as CEO of two mental health agencies, Dr. Goldberg’s background in organizational development and consulting made him ideal for the job. Now, after providing executive leadership at Behavioral Connections for the last 15 years and ensuring the future health of the agency through a recent merger with Harbor, the largest mental health provider in Northwest Ohio, he stepped down as CEO on January 1. Dr. Goldberg’s commitment to seeing Behavioral Connections thrive and grow was a primary reason for seeking a partnership with Harbor. “Some of the services and strengths of Behavioral Connections will be good for Harbor.

Dr. Richard Goldberg great deal of strength to the services that we provide here–it will strengthen both organizations,” he said. The merger opened new resources for residents in Wood County in addition to improving the growth of the agency. “The most exciting and beneficial part of this agreement is how much it will benefit our clients and their families,” said John Sheehan, Harbor CEO. “The expertise of both organizations are complementary, which allows us to continue to enhance the quality and depth of the care the community will receive.” Over the course of his career, Dr. Goldberg has worked in a number of executive leadership positions and as a consultant on diverse and successful projects. However, Dr. Goldberg said Behavioral Connections has been the most satisfying part of his career. “I think that this organization makes a tremendous difference, a positive difference, in the lives of many, many people. You can’t count the number of people whose lives have been helped by this organization,” he said. “The benefit that we have provided to this community makes it a better place, and I really am pleased to have been a part of that.” It’s a bittersweet farewell, having spent the longest tenure of his career at Behavioral Connections–something he attributes largely to the board of directors and staff. However, his work isn’t quite done. Dr. Goldberg will continue to work with Harbor and Behavioral Connections as a consultant and assist in implementing the future state strategy and vision he helped create, introducing a new phase to his career.

The Girl Scout Cookie Program strives to empower girls with the strength, abilities and drive they’ll need to become accomplished women who benefit themselves, their family and the world. As part of National Cookie Weekend at the end of February, girls will participate in Operation Cookie Booth. They will accept donation for cookies to be shipped to military members serving overseas, in partnership with Heroes in Action. Traditional booth sales will start March 6 and run through March 29. Girls wishing to join Girl Scouts and participate in the Girl Scout Cookie Program should visit gswo.org or call the regional Girl Scout Service Center at 419-243-8216. Girl Scouts are taking orders for their annual cookie sale through February 22. Seven varieties are offered this year, including: Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Trefoils, Do-Si-Dos, Savannah Smiles, and Rah Rah Raisins. New this year, Rah Rah Raisins are hearty oatmeal cookies with plump raisins and Greek yogurt-flavored chunks. The cookies are selling for $4 per box. “The Girl Scout Cookie Program is much more than a fund-raiser,” said Lissa Brown, director of regional services for Girl Scouts of Western Ohio.” The program is the largest girl-run business in the world. Girls learn skills such as goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. They work together with their fellow troop members and decide how they would like to use the funds they raise, including once-in-a-lifetime travel across the country, buying supplies for service projects, attending summer camp, and much more.
