Construction to begin next month on new Holiday Inn Express and Suites Perrysburg School District employee Eric Whitson arrested for theft
On July 2, investigators
from the Wood County prosecutor’s office and Perrysburg Police Division arrested
Perrysburg School District
employee Eric Whitson for
two counts of theft–fourth degree felonies–related to two
unauthorized checks issued
from the Perrysburg School
District account to the Bowling Green High School Athletic Booster Club.
Mr. Whitson, 30, has been
employed with the school
district since July 2004,
working in the treasurer’s office handling accounts receivable and student activities
accounts.
At a press conference on
July 3, Wood County Prosecutor Paul Dobson stated his
office has been working in
cooperation with Perrysburg
and Bowling Green police,
Perrysburg School administration and the BGHS Athletic Booster Club.
“It appears, so far in the
investigation, that Mr. Whitson not only being an employee of the Perrysburg
School system but also the
treasurer for the Bowling
Green Athletic Booster Club
for several years,” stated Mr.
Dobson. “And it appears, at
least at these initial stages,
that he was taking unauthorized funds from the Bowling
Green Athletic Booster Club
and he utilized the Perrysburg
funds in order to replenish the
booster club fund when it became apparent that a new
treasurer was going to be appointed.”
Mr. Whitson served as the
booster treasurer from 2009
until early this year.
The prosecutor stated that
two checks from Perrysburg
Schools, one for $42,000 and
one for $38,000, were issued
on February 28.
“This
was
initially
brought to our attention by
the Bowling Green Athletic
Boosters,” said Mr. Dobson.
“We just received word and
started the investigation very
recently.”
If found guilty, Mr. Whitson could face up to 18
months in prison and fines up
to $5,000 on each count. The
school employee was arrested
at the Commodore Building
and taken to the Wood
County Justice Center.
Mr. Whitson, who lives
with his parents in Bowling
Green, was arraigned in Perrysburg Municipal Court on
July 3.
During the arraignment,
Mr. Dobson stated there was
a search of the Whitson home
and investigators found uncashed checks, numerous
bank account paperwork and
cash in his bedroom. Mr.
Whitson has no spouse or
children–minimal ties to the
area and could be a flight
risk, he added.
Representing Mr. Whitson, attorney Peter Hallek
stated that Mr. Whitson is a
lifelong resident of Wood
County and would not flee.
Municipal Court Judge
Molly Mack set bond at
$80,000 with 10 percent allowed. Judge Mack also set
the following conditions with
bond: no contact with any
Perrysburg School administrators or employees; no contact with Bowling Green
Athletic Boosters; no contact
with the Northwest Ohio

Twp. trustees approve factfinding agreement with police union
Plans are under way to construct a 112-room Holiday Inn Express and Suites on the southeast corner of Levis Commons–State Route 25 and
Roachton Road.
Jon Roumaya, from Key Hotel and Property Management of Toledo, said they expect to break ground in August with a completion in a year.
The $11 million hotel will feature an indoor pool and 2,000-square-foot meeting room.
Along with the hotel, Mr. Roumaya stated, the management firm has plans with the 10-acre site that also include some national restaurants and
franchises.
The architectural drawings and site plan have been submitted to the Levis Commons architectural review committee for review and comments.
By Jane Maiolo
The Perrysburg Township
trustees accepted factfinding
reports from the Ohio State
Employment Relations Board
as it pertains to negotiations
between the township and the
sergeants, patrol officers and
dispatchers unions of the
Ohio Patrolmen’s Benevolent
Association.
At the July 2 meeting,
Trustee Bob Mack noted that
the report was “a lot of give
and take. Neither of us got all
we wanted.”
Terms of the three-year
agreement, which is retroactive to January 1, call for
wages increases of 1.5 percent in 2014 and 2015 with
this year’s increase retroactive to January 1. In 2016, the
raise will be 2 percent.
The union had sought 4
percent increases annually,
and the township had countered with increases of 1, 1.5
and 2 percent over three
years.
Regarding insurance, employees will pay 15 percent,
and the township will pay 85
percent of the premium.
The factfinding report recommended that no change be
made to the current language
regarding compensatory time,
but did include a meal reimbursement of $50 per day for
officers who attend training
seminars or conferences.
This is not the first time
the trustees and nearly 30
members of the union have
been unable to come to terms
on an agreement. The last
time the trustees and police
union relied on a factfinder to
resolve their issues was during negotiations for the 200810 contract.
Route 199/Scheider Road
Trustee Gary Britten updated the trustees on the State
Route 199, Eckel Junction
and Scheider roads discussion.
He said representatives
from Perrysburg Schools the
mosque, soccer association
and ODOT met, adding that it
was a “mixed bag” on
whether to close Scheider
Road where it meets Route
199.
Mosque officials questioned whether the road could
be made one way, but the
trustee is concerned that people may still drive both ways.
Mr. Britten believes closing Scheider at Route 199 is
the best option.
Trustee Craig LaHote
agreed. “Closing Scheider is
my number one preference,”
but he asked if a four-way
stop sign at the intersection is
good compromise.
“I’m ready to move forward with a four-way stop
and get it in place before
school starts,” he said.
Mr. Britten is opposed to
the stop sign option.
“I will not support a four
way stop sign,” he said, pointing out that it will create a
backup of traffic to the north
side at the Eckel Junction intersection over the hill.
He also predicts that if
Costco is built at State Route
25 and Eckel Junction, traffic
will increase.
“We’re going to create a
problem. That’s [stop sign]
one of the worst mistakes we
can make.”
Mr. Britten asked for more
time to meet with the parties
involved to see if they can
reach a consensus.
Mr. LaHote agreed but
said he would like to see a
timetable set for a decision.

The Perrysburg Area Historic Museum–the Spafford House Museum–celebrates grand opening with ribbon-cutting ceremony
The Spafford House Museum, owned and operated by Perrysburg Area Historic Museum, Inc. (PAHM) officially opened its doors on June 28. The museum, 27340 West River
Road, is open Thursday through Sunday from noon until 5 p.m. General admission is $5
for adults, $4 for senior citizens and high school students, $3 for junior high and elementary students, and 5 and younger are free.
At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, J.D. Justus, PAHM board liaison, welcomed community members, guests and elected officials. “It has been a long process,” he said. “Phyllis Morton, 13 years ago this was your dream, your idea. We are so proud of what you
have done for our community. This is all because of you, thank you.”
The museum features an entrance foyer, 1830s keeping room, early American kitchen,
judge’s office, research library, Native American history and artifacts room, 1830s bedroom,
old-fashioned school room and military, fire and police room. The museum is a safe, professionally run repository for a vast array of historic items. These objects by themselves or
through demonstration by trained volunteers will exhibit the ideas and achievements of the
individuals, both Native Americans and settlers, who inhabited this territory over the past 200
years. The museum displays objects and tells the history that portrays the skills of these people as well as their trials, successes and failures. The format of the museum includes a dis-
play of rotating exhibits, special collections and historic artifacts as inventory expands.
“Our gift to future generations will be the careful maintenance and protection of items
reflecting this heritage,” said Judy Justus, PAHM president.
Above left, U.S. Marine Corps Vietnam veteran Juan Artiaga and U.S. Marine Corps
World War II veteran Robert Romaker raised the flag while members of the Old Northwest Military History Association volunteer group are waiting to do a gun salute.
Center, Mrs. Morton officially opens the museum with the cutting of the ribbon as Mrs.
Justus, Scot MacPherson, Nancy Wilbur and Doug Bahnsen look on.
Right, front row, from left are Mrs. Morton, Mrs. Justus and Christine Best, museum
curator. Back row, from left are State Representative Tim Brown, Wood County Commissioners Doris Herringshaw, Jim Carter and Joel Kuhlman.
Representative Brown presented a commendation from the Ohio House of Representatives and read a portion of it–“In this modern era in which the durability of goods is valued often in months and days rather than in years and in decades, it is not only
enlightening but also satisfying to discover that some representation of our past still
stands for future generations as a record of and monument to previous achievements.
The Perrysburg Area Historical Museum has certainly made a positive contribution to
the quality of life in our society maintaining the rich heritage of bygone days.”
Below left, State Senator Randy Gardner presents Mrs. Justus and Mrs. Morton a commendation from the Ohio Senate.
“I don’t think there is any community in Ohio that has a brighter future than Perrysburg, plus none other that cares more about its history and heritage,” said the senator.
“Judy, Phyllis–we are all benefactors of your hard work and dedication.”
Below center, from left are Mayor Mike Olmstead, Mr. Justus and former mayor Martha
Baldoni.
“We learn from our history, we are inspired from our history,” said Mayor Olmstead.
“Here is an opportunity for us and future generations to do both those things as we continue to make Perrysburg the community that it is already but even more so, take it to the
next level.”
Below right, Perrysburg Township Trustee Craig LaHote presents a proclamation to the
museum officers.
“It is wonderful when a community can not only do the basic services that we all need,
but to also have wonderful things like this to help preserve our history and remind us of
where we all came from,” said the trustee.

The annual Sgt. David
Christoff Fallen Heroes Memorial Fund-raiser will take
place Friday, August 8.
Lisa Brondes, who is coordinating the event, said all
proceeds will benefit the
Wounded Warrior Project.
The annual fund-raiser is
named in memory of U.S.
Marine Sgt. David Christoff
of Rossford.
Sgt. Christoff was killed
in May 2006 serving his second tour in Iraq. He volunteered for duty the day after
the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, motivated by
the desire to protect the freedom and safety of those he
loved.
He is now laid to rest at
Arlington National Cemetery
in Virginia.
“David was a warrior and
a true leader of men, receiving numerous citations and
medals for valor and bravery,” Ms. Brondes said.
She explained that there
are several ways to participate in the fund-raiser:
•Become a sponsor in the
Fallen Heroes Memorial Golf
Tournament or golf in the
event on Friday, August 8, at
Stone Ridge Golf Club in
Bowling Green.
•Make a donation or vol-
unteer to assist at the fundraiser at the website
www.HeroesUnforgotten.
com.
“At any level, your participation in honor of Sgt.
Christoff and the many others
who have served and sacrificed for our benefit and the
benefit of our country, is very
much
appreciated,” Ms.
Brondes said.
The Wounded Warrior
Project serves veterans and
service members who incurred a physical or mental
injury, illness or wound coincident to their military service on or after September 11,
2001.
“Many of those who serve
to protect our great country
return home injured and are
in need of help,” she said.
“This project provides aid
to those individuals and their
families. It is a wonderful organization that is helping to
rebuild the lives of those who
have sacrificed so much for
our freedom.”
The golf tournament begins with a shotgun start at 10
a.m.
It includes a four-person
scramble, lunch and awards
reception following the
round.
Registration is limited to
the first 30 teams.
There is an $85 fee per
golfer, or $35 to attend the
awards reception.
Cynthia Parsons will be
the guest speaker at the
awards reception with a message of “love and endurance”
about her son, U.S. Army
Sgt. Shane Parsons.
On September 30, 2006,
anti-coalition forces attacked
his convoy on a mission in
Rhamadi, Iraq.
He suffered a severe
anoxic brain injury and two
cardiac arrests, and ultimately succumbed to bilateral
abovethe-knee
amputations.
He is improving every day
as he works on his speech,
social skills, occupational
and physical therapy.
“He’s alive, and he’s a
precious gift,” Mrs. Parsons
said. “I’m honored to be his
mother, and I’m proud of all
the men and women who
serve our country.”

to the
Editor
Open Letter
To the community:
Well, we finally did it
after 13 long years of meetings and fund-raising.
I wish to thank the following for helping make the
opening of the Spafford
House Museum sponsored by
the Perrysburg Area Historic
Museum, Inc., a wonderful
happening for the history of
our area.
If it had not been for the
organization, dedication and
hard work of J.D. Justus and
others, we still would not be
open.
The PAHM board wishes
to thank the following groups
and people who shared with
us the joy of our grand opening on June 28: American
Rent-All, tent; Fort Meigs,
parking; Perrysburg Schools
and Abundant Life, transportation) Perrysburg Police,
and parking attendants
Chuck Stocking, Jeff Wilbur,
Dave Ward, and Brad Taylor;
City of Perrysburg and
Mayor Olmstead; Accessible
Renovations, contractors; architect Kate MacPherson,
represented by Scot; State
Senator Randy Gardner;
State Representative Tim
Brown; Craig LaHote, Perrysburg Township; our
County
Commissioners
James Carter, Doris Herringshaw, Joel Kuhlman; Juan
Artiaga and Bob Romaker,
U.S. Marines flag raisers;
Fort Meigs re-enactors, gun
salute, and Christine Best,
Spafford House Museum curator.
Of special interest to our
visitors were the historical interpreters: Rick Thielen
(Judge Aurora Spafford’s library), Phyllis Morton (family Keeping Room and front
hall), Nancy Wilbur (upstairs
bedroom), Joann Ward (the
one room school), J.D. Justus
(Military, Police and Fire
room), and Ted Weaver (Native American room.)
It took a great deal of coordination and effort from the
people who were responsible
for assembling the artifacts
and pictures in the
W rooms.
We thank J.D., Juan Artiaga, Art Schaller, Doug
Bahnsen, Nancy Wilbur with
Joann Ward, and Ted Weaver
for their momentous efforts.
We couldn’t have done all
this without our intern, a senior from Bowling Green
State University, Erin Magill
who became a whiz on the labeling machine.

investigates cruelty
cases
The Wood County Humane Society (WCHS) employs a Humane Agent to
investigate reports of neglect, cruelty, and abuse from
concerned citizens, social
services, health departments,
and other law enforcement
agencies.
The following cruelty report was submitted by Humane Agent D’Ann Gregory
for May 2014.
This past month, Ms.
Gregory handled a total of 23
cases, 16 of which she successfully resolved, seven of
which are still pending further investigation.
Of the 16 closed cases,
three were filed with “reason
for concern,” eight resulted
in the administering of additional education, four resulted in referrals to other

agencies, one resulted in
owner surrender of an animal, and one resulted in
prosecution. Ms. Gregory
also conducted 33 followups to ongoing and/or
W closed
cases during the month of
May.
During the same month,
the WCHS took a total of 56
cats and 13 dogs into the
shelter. WCHS Shelter Manager Erin McKibben reported
the
following
information about intakes.
Of the cats, 49 were strays,
one was a surrender, five
were cruelty cases and one
was a return. Of the dogs, 10
were surrenders, one was a

transfer from another
shelter,
and two were returns.
The WCHS also adopted
N
out 17 cats and 13 dogs during the month.
Dear Editor:
When I opened up my June
25th Messenger and saw on
the front page that the schools
were needing somewhere in
the neighborhood of $35-$40
million to build another
school, I thought, more money
again?
I suppose that $12 million
levy the voters passed recently
didn’t raise our taxes enough?
Of course that money was for
other things, I suppose, but it
still raised our taxes. Most of
us do have other bills which
seem to continually go up,
while my one fixed income
per month does not.
I guess for those who have
more than one income, all well
and good, but I struggle to
keep my head above water
now.
Is Perrysburg getting to the
point where those in the lower
income bracket or those who
don’t keep up their lawns according to other people’s standards and can’t afford to pay
to have them done, should
move? Some of us really love
living here and would like to
continue. Hopefully that will
be the case. 419­874­2877

Perrysburg Weekly
Construction Update
7-9-14
This is a weekly listing of road work/road closures

alternative routes to avoid delays.
•SR 65 Resurfacing and Bridge Work
Through November
Lane restrictions will be possible on SR 65, from
West Boundary Street (SR 25) to State Route 64
(Waterville Bridge) for resurfacing. Traffic will be

sections at various times, however, homeowners will
be able to access their homes.
Drive with caution watching for construction
equipment.
Nancy Lendrum helps her students keep time as they practice for the recital.
By Allison Barrick
Students encorporated
their love of music with
learning at the HarpFest held
in June at St. Timothy’s
Episcopol church in Perrysburg.
Nancy Lendrum, director
of HarpFest and principal
harp in the Toledo Symphony, said she began teaching harp lessons 20 years
ago, but the camp is a brand
new program.
The HarpFest is sponsored by St. Timothy’s Discovers program, which
brings in various artists to
perform at the church. Ms.
Lendrum was invited to put
on the special harp program.
“We’re getting together to
share our love of music,” she
said.
In order to participate in
the HarpFest, one must already know how to play the
harp, explained the director.
Participants this year are all
students of Ms. Lendrum
ranging from age 7 to 83.
Students from ages 7 to
19 came from various
schools and places, including
Michigan, St. Joseph’s in
Sylvania, Lourdes University, University of Toledo,
•Interstate 475 Resurfacing
Through October from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Lane restrictions are possible overnight on I-475
from SR 25 to U.S. 20A for resurfacing. Ramp restrictions and closures on the I-475/U.S. 24 ramps
will be announced. Weekend interstate lane restrictions will be announced.
•State Route 582 Resurfacing
Through August
Intermittent lane restrictions are possible on SR
582, between SR 25 and SR 65 for resurfacing. Traffic will be maintained by flaggers.
All work is weather permitting.

Emmanuel Christian School,
Toledo School for the Arts
and homeschool.
This year, four hailed
from
Perrysburg
High
School.
“I’m so excited that there
are students from Perrysburg,” Ms. Lendrum added.
The HarpFest allowed the
young harpists to learn more
about tuning, changing
strings, moving a harp and
harp history.
In preparation for the
closing recital, the harpists
listened to their recital pieces
in their original format.
“The music that they are
playing was rewritten for
harp,” she explained.
All of the students gathered to conclude HarpFest
with the recital on June 26.
The harp teacher described
the event as a “huge success”
with about 175 audience
members.
While there may have
been some minor mistakes,
Ms. Lendrum explained that
the recital was not about
playing perfectly.
“It’s about camaraderie
and coming together to share
our love of the harp,” she

love to know about them so
that we can help with planning

Perrysburg First
to host VBS
TAX NOTICE! WOOD COUNTY Rossford Eagles
Per ORC. Sec. 323.08
Sherry Stanfa-Stanley
will discuss The 52/52 Project, a year-long undertaking
to try new things, on Monday, July 28, at 7 p.m., at
Way Public Library .
Ms. Stanfa-Stanley is a
fiction, humor, and humaninterest writer whose stories
have appeared in The Rumpus and in the anthology
Fifty Shades of Funny.
This past year, she challenged herself with 52 new
weekly life experiences far
outside her comfort zone.
They have ranged from visiting a nude beach (naturally,
she had her 75-year-old
mother in tow), to auditioning for “Survivor,” to crashing a wedding reception
where she accidentally
caught the bouquet.
She says she didn’t know
fright and fun could be so
closely entwined until she
babysat quadruplets, exfoliated a rhinoceros, and went
on a drug raid with the metropolitan vice squad and
SWAT team.
Through The 52/52 Project, she has pushed her
boundaries, gained courage,
and learned to laugh at herself in the most awkward of
situations. The 52/52 Project
is proof it’s never too late to
reinvent yourself.
She has shared many of
her experiences online at
https://www.facebook.com/

“It has been fun working
with my co-chair, Allie Rigg
Wilkinson, on this,” said Laura
Dachenhaus Hoffman, cochair for the Class of 1994
20th reunion. “We have been
in touch with so many classmates and can’t wait to see
them all in August. Coming
back home is always special
and I know we will have a
great time.”

She is majoring in communications.
To be named to the dean’s
list, a student must have a
grade point average within the

districts for the grants. Once
nominated, these districts
were eligible to submit completed grant applications in
April.
Over the past month, a
panel of educators from ineligible counties reviewed all of
the grant applications. The
strongest submissions were
selected as finalists and will be
sent to the America’s Farmers
Grow Rural Education Advisory Council for final review.
Composed of farmer-leaders
from across the United States
with a vested interest in both
agriculture and education, the
Advisory Council will select
the winning school districts.
The school district could
receive a grant for up to
$25,000. The winning grant
recipients will be announced
in early August.

Jason Rupert and Katie Rupert, brother and sister athletes from Wood County Special Olympics, supported by
Wood Lane, recently competed in the National Special
Olympic USA Games in New Jersey. Approximately 3,500
athletes from throughout the United States traveled to New
Jersey to compete in 16 sports at the highest level nationally.
Both Jason and Katie’s training through Wood Lane’s
year-round Special Olympics Program paid off at Nationals.
Katie, below, won the gold medal in 2K cycling, and silver medals in the 5K and 10K cycling events.
Jason, above, brought home silver medals in the 50
freestyle and 4x25 medley relay swimming events. He also
won a bronze medal in the 50 breaststroke and took sixth in
the 100 freestyle.
While the main focus was the athletic games, there were
certainly other highlights of the trip. Jason was awarded
one of his medals by actress Susan Saint James. Olympic
swimmer Dara Torres was also awarding medals throughout the competition. They also enjoyed sightseeing with a
cruise around Manhattan and New Jersey. The National
Games kicked off at the opening ceremony at the Prudential Center, Newark New Jersey.

‘Hijinks and Home’ program
offered at Main Library
The Toledo-Lucas County
Public Library presents Hijinks and Home: Camp life
and the home front in the
Civil War, stories told
through family letters, songs
and images of the time period performed by Judy
Cook scheduled from 6:30 to
8 p.m., on Monday, July 21
in the McMaster Center at
Main Library, 325 Michigan
Street.
This is a free program, for
all ages and open to the public.
Photos, letters and song
lyrics of the day are projected on-screen while Ms.
Cook reads Civil War letters
of the Claffins, a Wisconsin
farm couple. Their letters
were written while Gilbert
Claffin served in the Union
army, and his wife Esther
maintained the family farm.
In costume, Ms. Cook
plays tunes of the time and
sings songs that were written
and sung during the war.
In these songs and letters,
timeless themes of joy, sorrow, humor, courage and
love combine to provide fascinating insight into the soldiers’ camp and the home life
of 1860s Middle America.
Sung together, as folks
did then, the audience is
transported to the time of the
Civil War through a very personal, eye-witness experience.

She also provided leadership and support for other
Zoar outreach ministries
such as Kitchen of Hope,

Of the many committees
she staffed, one of particular
interest is “Yarns Of Love,”
a group of women who meet
weekly to knit and crochet
prayer shawls, lapghans,
chemo caps and blankets.
Upon completion, these
items are blessed, tagged

“Many of the projects
over which she presides will
continue to prosper and develop–as members are
deeply committed to them,”
said Rev. Philabaum.
Both Marshall and Philabaum have enjoyed the
shared ministry of preaching, visiting the sick, administering to the dying and
bereaved, and attending to
many other pastoral duties.
Rev. Marshall, who was
born in Tiffin, said even as a
child, she felt called to serve
others. She first responded
to this call by becoming a
social worker and serving
more than a decade in home-
less shelters in Columbus.
At the urging of her pastor
and other church leaders,
she entered seminary in her
mid-30s.
She served a two-point
parish in northeast Indiana
for 10 years prior to accepting the call to Zoar. An
alumnus of the Ohio State
University and Trinity
Lutheran Seminary, both in
Columbus, Ohio, Rev. Marshall continued post-graduate studies on a recent
sabbatical focusing on spiritual development.

Ministry of Rev. Ann Marshall to be celebrated at Zoar July 12-13
Zoar Lutheran Church
will celebrate the ministry of
Pastor Ann Marshall at all
services on July 12 and 13.
Pastor Marshall began serving at Zoar as its community
pastor in August of 2007,
and has recently accepted a
call to serve at St. Peter
Lutheran Church in Norwalk, Ohio.
In a letter addressed to
Zoar members, Pastor Ann
stated, “My time at Zoar has
been outstanding. I have
been challenged and affirmed, amazed and uplifted,
fulfilled and often overwhelmed by [the church’s]
generosity, kindness and
commitment. I have been
blessed to work alongside so
many faithful people these
years, both volunteers and
staff… I have loved my
seven years as Zoar’s community pastor.”
Pastor Marshall will
commence her duties at St.
Peter on August 1.
Rev. Marshall’s ministry
at Zoar focused special attention on the church’s role
in society, the care of poor,
and the care and protection
of the earth.
“This is why I came to
Zoar,” she said. “As the
community pastor, I could
concentrate more energy out
outreach and justice ministries.”
During her seven-year
tenure at Zoar, Rev. Marshall was instrumental in establishing
several
community and global outreach projects including
Kids Against Hunger, Cherish All Children (a ministry

continue to build on that,”
said Rev. Marshall. “People
here care about worship and
care about each other. Those
two things were very important to me–and that people
would continue to grow spiritually. I am happy that
many continue to join the
church through our Seekers
and New Disciples Classes,
and have chosen Zoar to be
their church home.” She
added the church has a long
history of bringing people
together to serve the whole
community. “The congregation actively supports the
Perrysburg
Christians
United, Redeemer Lutheran
Church in Toledo, and numerous other local nonprofit groups which strive to
improve the quality of life in
northwest Ohio.”
Rev. Marshall also noted
that she was proud of the
church’s music ministry. An
active member of the Senior
Choir, she has participated
in several dramas and encourages new members to
become involved in the
music and outreach ministries of Zoar.
Rev. Marshall’s last sermons at Zoar will be Saturday, July 12, at 6 p.m., and
Sunday, July 13, at 7:15,
8:30 and 11 a.m. A reception
will be held in the Family
Life Center on July 13, from
9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Her final
message to the congregation
will be that “God calls us all
to grow in faithfulness and
obedience and to produce a
harvest of justice and joy in
the name of the Sower of the
Seed, Jesus Christ.”

PERRYSBURG MESSENGER JOURNAL — July 9, 2014 — Page 7
Five YMCA swimmers qualify for Senior Olympics
Four women and the instructor of the Advanced Adult
Swim Class at the Fort Meigs
YMCA, Perrysburg, have
qualified to compete in the
2015 Senior Olympics in July
2015, in Minneapolis/St. Paul,
Minnesota, after placing in
events at the Ohio Senior
Olympics in Canton June 22.
Qualifying are Nell Maser
of Swanton and Perrysburg
residents Marcia Eck, Joan
Fechter, Tricia Halstead and
Mary-Chris Kay, instructor/
coach. The Fort Meigs Y team
earned six gold medals, seven
silver medals and five bronze
medals in the Canton competition. All also take part in the
Y’s 100-miles-per-year swim
club.
The National Senior
Olympics Games are held
every two years and have
grown from 2,500 participants
in 1987 ages 50 and older to an
expected 12,000 competitors
next summer in 16 individual
and three team sports. It is the
world’s largest multi-sport
event for senior athletes, who
compete in five-year age
brackets up to age 100.
The NSOG is an organization of the U.S. Olympic Committee. Although each state
hosts games every year, senior
athletes qualify for the national
games in even-numbered
years. Regional competitions
precede state meets. Of the
four “student” qualifiers, only
Ms. Halstead had even taken
formal swim lessons–a longago semester in college–before
enrolling in Mrs. Kay’s swim
classes four years ago.
“I am an 11-year breast
cancer survivor and hope to inspire other breast cancer survivors,” said Ms. Halstead.
“Through Mary-Chris’s outstanding instruction, I have
won gold medals at the regional and state levels, and
have competed in the national
competition at Cleveland State
University.” Ms. Halstead
qualified in the 50-yard backstroke, 100-yard backstroke
and 50-yard freestyle events.
Ms. Fechter was inspired to
swim by her daughter, Kim,
who competed in Special
Olympics swimming. Upon
starting eight years ago, Ms.
Fechter could barely swim a
length, but slowly worked up
to swimming a mile (66
lengths) several times per
week.
“Five years ago MaryChris invited me to join the Y
lap classes, which greatly improved my technique and
speed,” said Ms. Fechter. “I
had never competed in anything athletic, and needed lots
of convincing to enter the 50
Sports Classic sponsored by
the Area Office on Aging in
2010. Since then I have competed in several Senior
Olympics.” She qualified in
two backstroke events, plus
100-yard freestyle and 50-yard
breaststroke.
Ms. Maser also could
barely swim a lap when she
joined the class in 2012. Last
year she began competing.
“It’s very exciting to know
that this old dog really can
learn new tricks,” said Ms.
Maser. She qualified in five of
her six events, which included
backstroke, freestyle and
breaststroke, plus the 100-yard
individual medley.
“I enjoyed the water, but
never had taken formal lessons
until Mary-Chris’s lap swim
classes over the last few
years,” said Ms. Eck. “MaryChris improved our stroke
technique while introducing
the competitive aspects of the
sport. The striving for style and
efficiency, goal-setting and especially the camaraderie with
like-minded aquaphiles has
had a valuable impact and
serves as a tension-release
valve for me. Swimming simultaneously helps me battle
my demons, reach a higher fitness level and have fun.” She
competed and placed in all
three breaststroke events.
Ms. Kay grew up as an athlete in southern California, and
was a college swimmer and

Twenty-five works of art
by the celebrated artist Walter
Chapman are on display
through August 16, in the Perrysburg Municipal Building,
201 Indiana Avenue.
At age 102, Mr. Chapman’s art career has spanned
more than 80 continuous
years. He has garnered a long
list of awards, including a
Bronze Star for combat art
during World War II. His historic wartime renderings have
been published in numerous
books. Many of his wartime
pencil sketches are archived in
the Brown University Military
Collection.
Mr. Chapman’s paintings

Making Your Vision a Reality
In addition to being a
revered painter, he was a
highly regarded art teacher, art
juror and lecturer who shared
his knowledge and techniques
with hundreds of students who
have carried on his legacy
through their art and art careers.
Mr. Chapman and his wife
Jean owned and operated The
Chapman Art Gallery in Sylvania for more than 30 years.
Currently Mr. Chapman’s
home studio in Sylvania is
listed as a historical point of interest in the community.
The exhibit,
“Walter
Chapman: People, Places, and
Things” is filled with images
of unique people ranging from
a stoic historic reenactor called
a Soldier’s Portrait to a motion
filled painting of a New Orleans Jazz Band.
Mr. Chapman painted all
over the world. The exhibit
contains many beautiful watercolor paintings inspired by
travel as well as local beauty as
close as the Maumee.
The collection shows his
interest in ordinary things that
he painted purely for the decorative aspects that inspired
him.
A flower cart filled with
flowers hangs next to a painting of a dilapidated building.
The opposing scenes exem-
plify how inspired Mr. Chapman is by the people, places,
and things around him.
There are numerous pieces
in the show from the Chapmans’ private collection that
have never been shown to the
general public.
The Traditional Indian
Dancers were subjects Mr.
and Mrs. Chapman met in
India who willingly modeled
for him. The two paintings illustrate his artistically inspired
regard for the cultural beauty
of India’s traditional dance and
attire.
Some of the paintings in
the exhibit are available for
purchase. The exhibit includes
several of Mrs. Chapman’s favorite paintings, as well as Mr.
Chapman’s favorite painting
destinations and portraits of intriguing people they have met
along the way.
The City of Perrysburg will
honor Mr. Chapman with a
special acknowledgment on
Wednesday, July 16, at the
City Council meeting, at 6:30
p.m.
Residents of the Perrysburg
area are invited to meet and
greet Mr. and Mrs. Chapman
shortly before the start of the
city council meeting.

Perrysburg residents Louann and Paul Cummings return home
after five months in Vietnam on a Fulbright Scholar grant
Perrysburg resident and
professor of business at the
University of Findlay Louann
Cummings was awarded a
Fulbright Scholar grant and
recently completed teaching
the spring semester at the International School of Management and Economics of
the National Economics University (NEU) in Hanoi, Vietnam.
Dr. Cummings taught
teaching introductory and
specialized accounting/finance courses.
She did consulting and
made presentations to NEU
colleagues, local organizations, the University of Social
Sciences and Humanities and
Nha Trang University. The
professor was involved in
volunteer activities, NEU
committees, activities and
student organizations.
This is the final article in
the series written by Paul
Cummings as he accompanied his wife Louann on their
journey in Vietnam.
I think that when Louann
and I were first confronted
with the thought of spending
five months in southeast
Asia–and most of the time in
Hanoi, Vietnam–we didn’t
know what to expect, especially me.
Louann had been to Ho
Chi Minh City (Saigon) a
couple years prior on a threeweek professor exchange
program through the University of Findlay. She absolutely loved the experience
and the people, so that was
my security blanket prior to
taking the plunge. We always
have to trust our wives’ opinion, right? That being said, I
was still hesitant before we
left but I agreed to help her
get there and be the bellhop
schlepping all of her shoes,
clothes, text books, etc. Little did I know then what I
know now–we can depart
from our normal comfort
zone and establish a new one.
The latter part of April,
when Louann’s university–
National Economics University–was on break for a
week, we ventured to Laos
and spent a few days at the
Elephant Conservation Center (ECC) near Sayaboury.
After a one-hour flight
from Hanoi to Luang Prabang, we spent the night and
the next morning took the
“local” bus from Luang Prabang to Sayaboury–around
three hours road time. That
vintage bus ride might provide enough material for another article, so let’s just say
the passenger door of the bus
was open the whole trip.
There was a young boy
sleeping up against the windshield for most of the ride,
and to my right sat a young
man with a live chicken in
his lap. Need I say more?
During our stay at the
ECC, we helped the on-site
team of vets and mahouts
(elephant keepers) in their
daily activities of entering
the forest each morning to
bring the elephants back to
camp, feed them to some degree, and ride them on occasion. Other activities like
bathing and training, we
watched from a safe distance
and we especially enjoyed
the training session on how
to be a mahout. It ain’t easy!
A mahout raises his elephant
from when it is born, and
they work together as a team
most of their lives. Elephants
can live to be 80 years old or
so. They are very bright animals. This facility resembles
others in neighboring countries where efforts are being
made to keep the elephant
population from being depleted due to poaching and
extreme and inhumane work
environments.
We spent a couple more
nights in Luang Prabang,
Laos, and at the end of this
weeklong trip. It is a laid
back, relatively quiet, and
picturesque small city and
great place to relax. You can
even feel fairly secure renting a motor bike there which
we did for 24 hours–much
different than the noisy sea of
motor bikes that is a constant
in Hanoi!
When we returned, we
were down to our final month
in Vietnam. Our last trip
away from Hanoi was to the
northwest region of Vietnam
to a city called Sapa. We took
the overnight train on a Friday night from Hanoi to
Sapa–around
eight
hours–spent Saturday night
in a hotel, and then back to
Hanoi by overnight train
again on Sunday night.
On the train, we shared a
sleeper cabin with Sarah
from New Zealand and
Graeme from Scotland. This
remains one of the very positive things about our time in
southeast Asia. Not only did
we make many new Vietnamese friends, but we also
made new friends from all
over the world. It was good
that they spoke English and
didn’t snore as our quarters
were tight!
Sapa sits among large
panoramic valleys with
mountains everywhere and
terrace farming runs up and
down the hillsides making
this part of Vietnam extremely scenic. It would not
be a fun area to run a
marathon! H’mong locals
dress in heavy but colorful
hemp clothing even in warm
temperatures. They know
how to work the crowd at the
Sapa Market and are savvy,
persistent sales people. This
area is a must see if you are
visiting Vietnam.
Our final few weeks in
Hanoi were bittersweet indeed. Around May 1, it became very hot and humid so
if there was one thing we
were ready to get away from,
that topped the list. Otherwise, I don’t think either of
us were ready to leave the
many new friends we had
made through our work or
volunteering activities.
Even during our final
weeks, Louann made a wonderful new friendship with
Keiko, a Japanese lady who
works at their embassy, and
her dog, Aroha. We hope that
our paths cross again, and we
say that about so many new
acquaintances.
Even though we never became very proficient speaking or understanding the
54th annual Five Point
Steam Threshers reunion
Sunday, July 20, 11 to 5
The 54th annual Five
Point Steam Threshers Reunion will be held Sunday,
July 20, from 11 a.m. to 5
p.m. The event is open to the
public, and admission and
parking are free.
This year’s reunion will
take place at the corner of
State Route 199 and Bayer
Road in Perrysburg Township.
Local farmers have gathered wheat into shocks, and
the dry shocks will be collected in wagons and brought
to the reunion to be threshed
by old-fashioned steam-powered machines.
The annual reunion provides an opportunity for city
and country folk of all ages to
experience life on the farms
of yesteryear. The “good ole
days” are here again.
Sawmill
and
wheat
threshing demonstrations will
take place throughout the
day, and steam engine plowing demonstrations begin at 1
p.m.
Again this year will be a
“kiddie tractor pull.” Registration for this event begins at
1 p.m., and the pull starts at 2
p.m.
Steam engines, antique
cars and tractors, and gas engines from the turn of the
century will be on display
and operating throughout the
day.
Homemade bean soup
stirred in a giant kettle, fresh
steamed corn on the cob, kettle-popped corn and cold
drinks will be available for
purchase.
In the event of inclement
weather, the reunion will be
held 11 a.m. to 5 p.m,. on
Sunday, July 27.
Pets are not allowed at the
reunion.

The Sapa countryside in northwest Vietnam.
Music at the Market concert series continues tomorrow, July 10,
7 p.m., at Commodore Schoolyard with Irish band Extra Stout
The Music at the Market
concert series continues tomorrow, Thursday, July 10, at
7 p.m.
Concert goers are encouraged to bring blankets and
chairs to the lawn of Commodore Schoolyard in downtown Perrysburg and enjoy an
evening of music with Extra
Stout.
Extra Stout has carved a
unique niche in the regional
music scene. Not only do
they specialize in Irish music,
but they go a step beyond
with a repertoire of Irish pub
music–silly, fun Irish ditties
that are entertaining and surprisingly familiar, so the band
encourages audience participation.
The six members of the
group all have a common
Irish heritage and are committed to keeping Irish music
alive and regarded.
Despite their fun and engaging performance, they are

‘Despicable Me 2’
Family movie night presented by Downtown Perrysburg, Inc.
Above, a farewell dinner with Mrs. Cumming’s philanthropic accounting club.
Below, Mr. Cummings’ final session of “conversation hour” at the American Center in
the U.S. Embassy, Hanoi.
Vietnamese language, there
was generally always someone there to come to our rescue. Most of the Hanoi locals
under age 30 are bound and
determined to understand
and speak English as they
view it as their ticket to a better future. As I told the
young people I spoke to
weekly at the American Center in the U.S. Embassy,
“Your English may not be
where you want it to be, but
it’s a hundred times better
than my Vietnamese.” That
generally created the comfortable atmosphere I was
shooting for and fostered
good conversation and many
laughs.
The good-byes were
tough, all of them, and we
continue to correspond, chat,
correct the grammar in
emails, and do Google hang-
outs with a variety of people
and groups.
I am trying to continue a
weekly English tutoring activity with a group of visually
impaired folks, a couple who
are totally blind, and a couple who can see well enough
to be chatting with me regularly on Facebook.
Our hangouts session is 8
a.m. Wednesday for them so
9 p.m. Tuesday night for me.
It seems to be working so far.
Technology helps to minimize the 8,000 miles we are
now separated from our new
friends even though we still
miss the daily interaction a
lot.
Louann and I once again
thank the Fulbright Scholar
Program for giving us this
opportunity to become fully
immersed in another country
and culture for just under five
months.When we arrived at
the airport in Detroit on June
1 (another long story–we
were supposed to get back on
May 30 but hey... it’s Vietnam!), we experienced reverse culture shock in a big
way. What we learned from
our time away is that you can
step out of your comfort zone
and be away from all the
creature comforts we Americans take for granted and
adapt to new, very different,
less frills surroundings.
It’s all about the people,
and in this case, the Vietnamese people were very
welcoming, very friendly and
very willing to help us. We
hope to pick up where we left
off in Vietnam at some point,
and we will be ready to sign
up for another tour of duty at
the first opportunity. Try it,
you’ll like it!

Dr. Nancy Orel speaks to Chamber
on ‘re-imaging’ aging, Baby Boomers
By Allison Barrick
Since
2011,
Baby
Boomers having been turning
65 or older by the 10,000s–
not every year or even every
month, but every day.
However, growing old is
not a sudden event in one’s
life.
“Getting old is not just
something that happened
when we turned 65,” said Dr.
Nancy Orel, associate dean in
the College of Health and
Human Services and professor in the gerontology program at Bowling Green State
University. “We start aging at
conception, but even before
that.”
Dr. Orel was the speaker
at June’s Perrysburg Chamber of Commerce meeting.
She explained that one’s
ancestral history can have a
huge impact on aging.
“The best way to increase
your longevity is to choose
your parents wisely,” Dr. Orel
said jokingly.
While genetics play a
huge role, it is still important
to take care of what is given,
continued the gerontology
professor.
“We create our own future,” she said.
The population always has
been aging, but it has only recently been more noticible.
“It’s right in front of us,
but yet we don’t see it,” she
added.
In the 1900s, only 4 percent of the population was
older than 65. In 2012, that
became 12 percent of the national population, a little
more than 14 percent of
Ohio’s population. In 2030, it
is projected to be 21 percent,
and in Ohio, 24 percent.
Ohio has a very high percentage of persons over 65,
but Wood County’s percentage is rather low–about 12
percent. This is due to the
At the June meeting of the Perrysburg Area Chamber of Commerce, are, from left: chamber board members Matt Feasel and Bob Mack, chamber board president Debbie Paul,
guest speaker Dr. Nancy Orel and chamber board member Vic Gable.
many students who attend the
local universities, she explained.
According to recent statistics, while the ratio of caregivers to elderly recipients
was seven to one in 2010, it is
projected that in just 15 years,
that ratio will drop to four to
one. In 2050, the ratio will be
three to one.
The question that Dr. Orel
posed in response to these ratios–are there enough young
individuals to care for Baby
Boomers?
“Wood County is still
below the national average,
but it is still increasing in the
number of older adults.”
Dr. Orel went on to say
that, unfortunately, many
people think that looking old
is “bad.” Growing old should
not be a negative experience
or view but should be faced
with a positive attitude.
“When someone tells you
‘you’re old,’ you should respond, ‘no, I’m chronologically gifted.’”
Even so, she explained
that it is important to set a
plan for care now before it’s
too late.
“You don’t want to realize
that you don’t have a plan
when you get a call from the
hospital,” said Dr. Orel.
While planning for the future is important, the professor said that becoming
disabled is not inevitable.
Arthritis is the most common illness among the elderly, but it does not need to be
dehibilitating, said Dr. Orel.
However, it is becoming
hopeful that by the time Baby
Boomers, those born between
1946 and 1964, reach age
85, they will be known as
“super-agers.”
“A super-ager is someone
over the age of 85 who does
not have severe limitations,”
she explained.
Becoming a super-ager
should be every person’s
goal, she added.
In addition to staying informed and using resources,
Dr. Orel said that it was important to support “aging in
place.”
Aging in place refers to
the elderly who are capable
of living in their own homes.
Most older people prefer this
option over residing in assisted living facilities, or even
living with their children. Dr.
Orel explained that this often
is because they do not want to
be a burden to their children.
The BGSU professor encouraged the audience to prepare themselves for aging by
staying physically fit, intellectually active, social and
finding purpose and meaning
in life, because all of these aspects will help one to successfully age.

On a Sphere® through September 7. The exhibit is presented
by NASA Glenn Research
Center in Cleveland, Ohio, and
sponsored by NASA’s Space
Communications and Navigation Program.
Science On a Sphere is an
animated globe, with a six-foot
diameter, that can show animated images of the atmosphere, oceans, vegetation and
more.
Science On a Sphere is the
brainchild of Dr. Alexander
McDonald, director of the Na-
tional Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s
(NOAA) Forecast Systems
Laboratory in Boulder, Colorado. Four projectors cast rotating images onto a sphere,
approximately six feet in diameter, to create the effect of
Earth in space.
Because the images originate from data collected by
satellites, researchers refer to
the projected images as “data
sets.”
Researchers at NOAA developed Science On a Sphere
as an educational tool to help
illustrate Earth System science
to people of all ages. Animated
images of atmospheric storms,
climate change and ocean temperature can be shown on the
sphere, which is used to explain what are sometimes
complex
environmental
processes, in a way that is simultaneously intuitive and

and Its Effect on Food Insecurity,” Mark Partridge, a
professor in the college’s
Department of Agricultural,
Environmental and Development Economics (AEDE),
and Clare Cho, a doctoral
student in the department,
examine the growth of the
SNAP program in Ohio with
a particular focus on participant enrollment and SNAPauthorized store presence by
county.
The brief was published
through the work of the C.
William Swank Program in
Rural-Urban Policy, an Ohio
State research initiative
chaired by Partridge.
“As funding for SNAP
has grown, it has become increasingly important to determine
whether
the
program reduces food insecurity,” Ms. Cho said.
“Our finding that most
SNAP stores in Ohio are
clustered in urban areas
while some of the largest increases in SNAP participation rates occurred in rural
areas could partially explain
why the SNAP program has
an uncertain effect on food
insecurity in the state.”
Since 2008, SNAP participation at all levels– national, state and by Ohio
county–has
increased.
SNAP is authorized through

the Farm Bill and provides
support to millions of Americans each year.
Nationally, enrollment in
the program increased by 50
percent from 2001 to 2005
and by 70 percent from 2007
to 2011.
At the state level, in
2002, 9.8 percent of
Ohioans were eligible to
participate in the food assistance program, while in
2012 this figure reached 16
percent.
Based on this data, Ohio
is now the 10th most food
insecure state in the nation,
having previously ranked
30th in 2000.
The researchers found
that SNAP enrollment increases in Ohio have varied
by county, though all counties have experienced an increase
in
program
enrollment since 2000.
The lowest increase in
SNAP participation occurred in Delaware and
Holmes counties, with a 2
percent enrollment increase
in the program from 2000 to
2010.
The greatest increase in
program enrollment during
that period occurred in Vinton County, with a 16 percent increase in program
participants.

program increased in all
Ohio counties, the researchers found that the
number of SNAP-authorized
retailers has not matched
this growth pattern.
“In regard to SNAP-authorized establishments, we
found that these stores tend
to cluster, particularly in
areas with large populations,
even though all counties in
Ohio experienced an increase in SNAP enrollees
over the last decade. It’s not
clear why in counties such
as Scioto County, the number of SNAP-authorized
stores would not increase in
response to the growing
number of participants, especially since the overall
population increased as
well,” Ms. Cho said.
In the U.S. there is much
debate on the effectiveness
of the SNAP program. By
offering a lens on SNAP retail participation rates in
Ohio compared to where
SNAP program enrollment
is occurring, the authors examine a key aspect of the
program that may be hindering its effectiveness: program participants’ access to
SNAP-authorized retailers.
This finding may be critical
in understanding how SNAP
participants in rural settings
may be prevented from fully
on installs

Research finds gaps in retailers accepting food stamps; could be affecting effectiveness
New analysis from economists in Ohio State University’s College of Food,
Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences finds that
the number of authorized
stores in Ohio that serve participants in the U.S. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP), formerly
known as the Food Stamp
Program, has not followed a
consistent growth pattern in
the state to match program
enrollment, possibly impacting the program’s ability to
meet the needs of participants.
The economists found
that SNAP-authorized retailers are mostly clustered in
the state’s large urban centers even though rural populations have seen equal
increases in the proportion
of residents who are SNAP
participants over the last
decade.
While much attention has
focused on low benefit levels as a reason for program
ineffectiveness, the Ohio
State researchers conclude
that limited access to SNAPauthorized stores, particularly in rural areas, also may
hinder the program’s effectiveness.
In a recently published
policy brief, “The Supplemental Nutrition Program
FINANCING

Great Lakes
Urgent Care
participating in the program.
“Although additional research on accessibility of
SNAP-authorized
stores
needs to be conducted, the
distribution of stores in relation to the location of lowincome residents in Ohio
further indicates the need to
improve transportation access of disadvantaged
households for work, childcare, education and food,”
Mr. Partridge said.
“In the recent debate on
whether rural poverty is
overstated because of lower
costs of living, other factors
have been largely ignored,
such as longer commutes
and limited access to services such as grocery stores,”
he said.
“Oftentimes in rural
areas, there are large areas
of land without stores or
with few options to choose
from, as seen by the distribution of SNAP-authorized
stores in Morgan County.”
In their research, Mr.
Partridge and Ms. Cho
found that while Morgan
County had a food insecurity rate of 20 percent in
2010, ranking it as one of
the top five most food insecure Ohio counties, there are
significantly large areas in
the county that lack SNAPauthorized stores.

PETS OF THE WEEK
Small Engine
Mechanic
Glory is an adult female hound and
Labrador retriever mix who is relatively new to the shelter, so the staff
is still getting to know her. She
loves to play fetch and take walks.
But she also enjoys cuddle time.
Sound like the perfect companion
for you? Come meet her at the
shelter today!
Full or Part-Time
Shamma is a beautiful, mature lady (about 10 years old) who
came to the shelter in February after her long-time human
passed away. She has an amazing personality and a “permanent pedicure” (i.e., she’s
declawed). She loves to be the
center of attention and would
prefer to go to a forever home
with no other pets. Does Shamma sound like the companion
for you? Come find out today!
**All of our pets have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated
appropriate to their age, tested for heart worm and current on
prevention in dogs, tested for FIV/FeLV in cats, received an
initial de-worming and flea prevention, have a 14 day health
guarantee and a free physical exam to local participating veterinary offices. All of our pets are also microchipped prior to
adoption.**
Bring the ad from the Perrysburg Messenger Journal or the
Rossford Record Journal 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

Saturday, July 12
Parents in the Rossford School System who have a need
for their student to be transported to a location other than
their home address for an extended period of time must
now fill out an alternate transportation form for each
child.
Because of the growing number of children in need of
alternate busing and the “Missing Child Act,” Rossford
Schools will not permit transportation without a form completed and approved.
Approval for your child to ride an alternate bus will depend on the alternate location being already on existing bus
routes for the current school year and State regulations regarding load capacity.
Forms are now available online at the Rossford Schools
website, Transportation tab (http://www.rossford
schools.org/pages/uploaded_files/AltTranspForm.pdf) or
at the Administrative Offices, 601 Superior, 419-666-2010.
Even though you may have received previous approval, another request must be made for the 2014-2015 school year.
Completed forms should be returned to the office no later
than August 1, 2014. After approval, a copy of the form
will be returned to you by mail. Alternate transportation
will not start until you have received approval.
