Wishing you a Happy and Safe Labor Day! By Deb Buker The mission of the Perrysburg School District is “ensuring students achieve their greatest potential.” And each year, the district reviews the goals and accomplishments of its administrators and reports progress through the district’s strategic plan. At its August 20 meeting, the Perrysburg Board of Education heard an update on the strategic plan and reviewed a summary of the stakeholder study report from Superintendent Tom Hosler. 1. Teaching and Learning–Each year Perrysburg Schools will ensure all students achieve one year ’s growth based on state valueadded measures and will close achievement gaps between underperforming subgroups and the general population based on standardized summative assessments. Superintendent Hosler reviewed highlights from the last school year: •Performance Index Score increased 2.4 percent since 2006; •ACT average score over 24 (Ohio average 21.8; national average 21.1); •OGT special education scores increased; •Analyzed new Common Core State standards to begin implementation in 2012-13; •Increased professional development directed towards Race to the Top– Common Core, teacher evaluations, formative assessment, inclusion, response to intervention; •Administration, faculty and community members conducted site visits to districts that actively engaged in 1:1 computing programs for their students to provide insight and direction, and •Cloud-based computing–established Google Apps for Education accounts for all students during 201112; will move faculty and staff to same system during winter break 2012-13. 2. Communication and Collaboration–all stakeholders work cooperatively to listen and communicate with a unified voice and build ongoing relationships internally and with the community to support and increase student achievement. Highlights include: •Web site redesign and social media campaign: •Regular district support organization meetings; •New phone system and fiber network improved communication capability between buildings, and •All schools increased collaboration time to study student data, implement/ study instructional strategies. 3. Financial Accountability, Safety and Security– ensure that all district buildings provide a physically and emotionally safe, secure and supportive learning and teaching environment and ensure financial responsibil- ity and accountability by allocating resources to support and increase student achievement. •Sharing services with Maumee schools for preschool facility, saving $20,000 each year and sharing school psychologist with Anthony Wayne Schools; •Perrysburg cost per pupil is $1,498 less than state average of $10,088; •Olweus anti-bullying program continues, and •Strategic facilities committee made a recommendation to the board of education. Stakeholder Study Report This study was conducted in the spring to measure perceptions, opinions and attitudes of residents, alumni, parents and/or voters in the community regarding Perrysburg Schools. “This study will assist the district’s administrative team with goal-setting in regards to our strategic plan, as well as set benchmarks,” explained the superintendent. The data was collected using a mailed survey to a random sample of registered, active voters as well as through a convenience sample obtained online via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, the district Web page and a link circulated via e-mail to parents and community leaders. The response rate on the survey’s random sample is 30 percent. Including the convenience sample, a total of 1,523 individuals took the survey. Key Fundings •57.8 percent of respondents were parents; 14.2 percent, alumni; 13.9 percent, faculty or staff member; 6.3 percent, employed in the community, and 5.8 percent, grandparents. •57.2 percent of respondents said the district’s overall grade should be “A,” 37.1 percent said it should be “B.” Please turn to page 2➧ More than 2,000 people attend U.S. Navy Band Great Lakes and U.S. Marine Corps Band New Orleans bicentennial salute concert at Commodore Square Brought to you by the sponsors on page 3. Discussions moving forward with TARTA for ‘gap’ period City to negotiate with Ride Right for transportation services By Deb Buker At its August 21 meeting, Perrysburg City Council voted 5-1 authorizing the city to enter into negotiations with Ride Right, LLC for transportation services. Based in St. Louis, Missouri, Ride Right is an affiliate of Medical Transportation Management and provides ADA paratransit, fixed route and shuttle/dial-a-ride services. The transit firm submitted the lowest cost for services–$530, 936. Ride Right is proposing three brand new vehicles each with two wheelchair access. They are looking at eight to 10 drivers with a facility located in the Fort Meigs Road business area. Councilor Maria Ermie was absent and Councilman John Kevern cast the only no vote stating that he believes the city would be better served by the local firm Black and White. “I am the only no vote against Ride Right because of my belief that those in need and depend on public transportation the most will be better served through the services of Black and White– locally managed, locally owned, an experienced Wood County transportation provider,” he stated. “They are more expensive than Ride Right but still a whole lot less expensive than the committee’s earlier 2-1 first choice of MV Transportation. “Black and White transit with its extensive business model featuring 24/7 schedule, 365-day operation, local dispatching, in-house maintenance and full and immediate back-up capabilities and assistance plus drivers would serve and satisfy the consumers and taxpayers of Perrysburg in the most prudent way possible.” Councilman Mike Olmstead said he also prefers a local company but the scoring system to rate the bidding companies put Ride Right on top. “It makes sense to me to go with a local system, but when you look at the scoring system it was tough. Ride Right scores best,” said the councilor. “If you look at the RFP and what was requested and you look at the scores, it was Ride Right.” Members of the health, sanitation and public utilities committee–Councilors Todd Grayson, Tim McCarthy and Mr. Kevern–ranked the four companies (Black and White, LeFleur Transportation, MV Transportation and Ride Right) on a scale of 100 with 60 percent cost, 20 percent service, 10 percent performance and 10 percent implementation. Black and White was ranked second with a cost of $619,335. A five-year, 1.45-mill levy will be on the November 6 ballot and Perrysburg voters will make the final decision whether or not to actually fund a new public transportation system. If approved, an owner of a $200,000 home would pay approximately $88 annually. The estimated property tax revenue collected would be $824,476–almost half the amount ($1.5 million) currently being collected annually for TARTA services. TARTA Negotiations On August 8, Councilman Grayson sent a letter to the TARTA Board of Trustees encouraging discussion on TARTA service after September 22. “Our goal here is simple. We would like to encourage discussions between our two administrative departments so that we, the legislative bodies, have something to vote on. While it seems that some may feel we are trying to reopen a closed deal, these requests are an attempt to work together in an effort to improve connectivity in northwest Ohio. TARTA is a regional transit authority, and Perrysburg is certainly part of that region. While the taxpayers voted to leave TARTA, the goal was not to be isolationist. The HSPU committee and council as a whole have repeatedly stated an interest in keeping connectivity with greater Tole- do, and TARTA is an important part of that. Our employers in Perrysburg and employers in Toledo depend on workers being able to use public transportation to and from Perrysburg every day.” At the meeting, council passed a resolution allowing Bridgette Kabat, city administrator, to move forward with discussions with TARTA on a potential contract for services after September 22. Mrs. Kabat stated that at a recent TARTA policy board meeting it was requested of Perrysburg City Council to formalize their intention of moving forward with negotiations. “They want to make sure council is speaking with one voice,” she said. “The next TARTA meeting is September 4, and they would not look to act on whether they would enter into negotiations with us until that meeting. The policy board did not recommend to or not to negotiate with the City of Perrysburg.” Councilman Tom Mackin told members of council that there is a very short window to have a service in place for the “gap period” and right now there is no plan B. “As I recall, when council voted to recommend the city be removed from TARTA, we made promises to our citizens–transportation would be on the ballot, we would have a quality transportation service and there wouldn’t be a gap in service,” he said. “ We have done the first two. Council members promised that there would be service provided during the gap period. That was something that was discussed and on the record. I just want to make sure that is clear that we have talked about it, but we do not have a plan B. I want to make sure we have that plan on September 23.” Mr. Grayson explained that the resolution is “simply to open the doors to talk about the gap before November 6 and after November 6 and going forward.” Mrs. Kabat stated that council, as a whole, needs to determine what the definition of gap is. “Is the gap after the levy is passed on November 6, or is the gap starting when TARTA is no longer providing service?” she said. “The resolution tonight states the gap period would be going forth after a levy is passed. We do know there is funding available for that gap service November 7 through December 31.” Perrysburg resident and treasurer of the Perrysburg4transit committee, Denny Barrett, told council that he voted for the removal of TARTA from the city because he believes it can be done for half the cost. “But I am disturbed to hear you guys talk about the gap. Everybody that I have talked to said the city is going to come through and going to cover the gap one way or another,” he said. “I know it is not easy and will cost us money but I think if you don’t figure out how to cover the gap in the next one month and two days, then my job of selling this levy to the community is going to be extremely difficult. “We cannot let these people hang out on a limb for three months. I think we are making a terrible mistake. You said you were going to do it and I still have confidence that you are going to do it. But you better hurry up–there isn’t much time left.” Other Business In other business, council: •Heard that tax collections were up 12 percent for the month of July and up 4 percent year-to-date. •Scheduled the following meetings: service-safety, Wednesday, September 5, 5 p.m.; finance, Tuesday, September 11, 5 p.m.; recreation, Monday, September 17, 5 p.m., and economic development, Monday, September 17, 6 p.m. The next meeting of city council is Tuesday, September 4, 6:30 p.m. All meetings are held in the municipal building and are open to the public. The U.S. Navy Band Great Lakes Wind Ensemble and U.S. Marine Corps Band New Orleans joined forces last Thursday evening to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812 and the bicentennial of the “Star Spangled Banner” with a special concert at Commodore Square in downtown Perrysburg. In a letter to the editor, Perrysburg resident Gary Franks describes the concert. “What a concert! If you did not attend the concert by the combined Navy Band Great Lakes and Marine Corps Band New Orleans last week, you missed what was probably the best musical event Perrysburg has seen in many years. The crowd gathered was, in my best estimate as an engineer, in excess of 2,000 people. “Starting with ‘The Star Spangled Banner’ and concluding with ‘The Stars and Stripes Forever,’ the interval was filled with wonderful music and narratives honoring the men and women of our armed forces. The story of the birth of our national anthem, written by Francis Scott Key, was told accompanied by a fitting composition performed by the bands. John Philip Sousa’s music was in abundance. “Not to be overlooked, as it was the highlight of the evening, was the Armed Forces Medley during which the men and women of the various branches were honored, standing and receiving applause as their respective song were played. “We are truly blessed as a nation to have young men and women such as this. We owe many thanks to them, as well as to our veterans of our armed forces, for the sacrifices they are making and have made in serving our country since 1776. “Thank you, Navy Band Great Lakes and Marine Corps Band New Orleans, for coming to Perrysburg. Your performance will long be remembered.” Pictured left, Mayor Nelson Evans presents Perrysburg lapel pins for band members to bandmaster Navy Lt. Patrick Sweeten.

City of Perrysburg transitions back to CodeRed The City of Perrysburg has transitioned back to the Emergency Communications Network’s (ECN) CodeRed mass notification system due to ECN’s acquisition of One Call Now’s government emergency center clients.The city utilized CodeRed’s services in the past with much success. The transition offers citizens more options and allows them to customize notifications. Citizens may sign up for general alerts and choose which weather alerts they receive. CodeRed has made improvements to its automated weather warning system, as well. Weather warnings are delivered moments after the National Weather Service issues an alert. The system uses sophisticated technology to only contact those residents in the path of the storm. Only residents who sign up for the weather alerts will receive them. Residents can choose to receive tornado warnings, severe thunderstorm warnings and/or flash flood warnings. Residents who were registered with One Call Now have been transfered to the new system, however, they are encouraged to re-register to ensure the accuracy of contact information and enrollment in all of the appropriate notification programs. If a resident is not registered and would like to be enrolled, visit the city’s Web site at www.ci.perrysburg.oh.us and click the link on the main page. Residents also can call 419-872-8000 and provide contact information and references. –Perrysburg Police Division  Page 2 — August 29, 2012 — PERRYSBURG MESSENGER JOURNAL $2.00 off BURGER OF THE MONTH Kobe Prime Beef Burger THE GREEK OLIVE BURGER! $1.00 off any other burger 100% Certified (Stress free, hormone free, anti-biotic free, naturally fed Kobe Beef) or Angus Beef, Sour Cream, and Greek Olives on a toasted gourmet bun! Superintendent reviews strategic plan update ➧Continued from page 1 •Perrysburg stakeholders most often obtain information about the school district from the Perrysburg Messenger Journal (48 percent rated it very important, 33.7 percent important), the district’s Web site (47.3 percent rated it very important, 31 percent important), school newsletters and school announcements. •28.6 percent of respondents reporting having lived in the district for longer than 20 years; 27.6 percent, 11 to 20 years; 22 percent, five to 10 years, and 12.5 percent, less than five years. •Areas perceived as the district’s greatest strengths include “strong academic program/rigorous curriculum” (56.1 percent strongly agree), “safe environment” (53.2 percent strongly agree), “supportive community” (50.3 percent agree) and “quality, caring staff” (47.1 percent agree). •50.2 percent of respondents were aware of the mandates the State of Ohio places on public schools, whereas 41.6 percent were only somewhat aware. •81.2 percent were aware that the State of Ohio has reduced funding to public schools, while only 13.6 percent were only somewhat aware. Recommendations •Moving percentage points from “B” to “A” next year should be a major goal for the district; EARLY DEADLINE Due to the Labor Day holiday there will be an early deadline for the September 5 issue of the Perrysburg Messenger Journal. ALL articles and advertisements MUST be in by noon on Friday, August 31 for the September 5 issue. •The district should remain focused primarily on providing information through the Perrysburg Messenger Journal, the district’s Web site, school newsletters and school announcements. •The television news is an important way to reach stakeholders, particularly those who are not parents. The district is advised to explore additional ways to utilize this resource for getting more information to stakeholders. •Word-of-mouth is an important method by which stakeholder obtain information, so it is critical that the district maintain clear communications with parents and staff at all times, so they are able to share accurate and timely information with the community. •Stakeholder opinions in all areas measured in the strengths questions–as well as the text responses that were coded by building and department–should be carefully considered by the pertinent administrators for strategic planning and goal-setting for the coming school year. •The district should focus its communications not just on the accomplishments of the district but also on the challenges it faces to paint a full picture to its stakeholders. Summary Overall, the community’s stakeholders strongly value Perrysburg schools, but there is always room to improve, added Mr. Hosler. “The district’s administration should consider carefully the perceptions of the district’s strengths and the comments provided by survey respondents when setting their goals for the coming year, in addition to utilizing student performance data,” he said. “A theme in the analysis of the survey responses is that the district’s greatest opportunity for increasing stakeholder support is to continue to find ways to communicate from all areas of the organization. “This survey should continue to be conducted annually at the end of each school year in order to track improvement and to direct the district’s limited resources towards addressing the areas seen by the majority of stakeholders as having the greatest need,” concluded Mr. Hosler. includes our hormone free and anti biotic free Angus beef, ocean caught salmon, vegan, and natural all-white meat turkey burgers as well.

Diapers for Darlings drive to benefit area families in need The Connection Center, has launched a ‘Diapers for Darlings’ drive to benefit Wood County food pantries and other organizations. Donors may drop off diapers of all sizes at the center located at 194 South Main Street, Bowling Green. Hours are Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Connection Center staff also will pick up donations. Diaper donation boxes also will be set up at Behavioral Connections of Wood County’s 1010 North Prospect and Federal Building sites and at the agency’s Perrysburg site at 27072 Carronade Drive. The goal is to collect enough diapers to fill the Connection Center’s large front window from floor to ceiling with diapers. When the drive ends, the Center will deliver the diapers and other diapering supplies to the Bowling Green Christian Food Pantry, the Deacon’s Shop, the Cocoon Shelter, and other groups. Cash donations also are welcome. “Working families often use day care services, which require parents to supply diapers for their own babies and toddlers,” said Carol Beckley of the Connection Center. “Running out of disposal diapers means not being able to go to work. Current government assistance programs including SNAP, EBT, and WIC do not cover the costs of diapers and wipes, and the nearest diaper banks are in Toledo and Napoleon. In our community, diapers are truly a basic need.” Hot Rods for Harbor House September 22 The fifth annual car show to benefit Harbor House, “Hot Rods For Harbor House,” will be held Saturday, September 22, at Dunn Chevy Buick, 3000 Dustin Road in Oregon.

(419) 308-0585 Monclova • Perrysburg (Other Ohio locations include Springboro, Middletown, Maineville) Jackets open season with 49-18 victory over Bowsher By Scott Buker The Perrysburg Yellow Jackets varsity football team opened its 2012 season with a sharp performance, defeating the Toledo Bowsher Rebels, 49-18, last Friday night at Bowsher High School. The Jackets racked up 387 total yards, with 275 coming on the ground led by senior quarterback Steve Slocum, who rushed for 115 yards on 15 carries including three scoring runs of 16, 12 and 11 yards. Sophomore running back Gus Dimmerling chipped in 74 yards on 11 carries, and junior running back Mark Delas scored three times on the ground from 7, 4 and 3 yards, respectively. Perrysburg’s initial scoring play occurred when Slocum ran in from 16 yards out with 2:52 remaining to play in the opening quarter. Shortly after, the Jackets defense forced a Rebel punt that was mishandled and Jackets defensive end Kadin Llewellyn collapsed on the punter at the Bowsher fiveyard line. The defensive stop by Llewellyn and the rest of the Jackets defense set up Delas’ Fort Meigs School helps family Fort Meigs Elementary School is accepting donations to help a student and his family who recently lost their home and possessions in a house fire.

Bowsher struck back quickly. On the next possession, the Rebels connected on a 70-yard touchdown scoring strike through the air. A failed two-point conversation attempt left the score at 14-6 in favor of the Jackets. Taking control of the ball at their own 32-yard line at the 10:26 mark in the second quarter, Slocum led the Jackets offense to their third scoring drive of the night. Delas bulldozed his way back into the end zone from four-yards out with 7:36 left to play in the half to stretch the Perrysburg lead to 21-6. Threatening to score again, Slocum and the Perrysburg offense made their only significant mistake of the night. A pass from Slocum intended for receiver Matt Kaczinski was intercepted with 5:14 to play, giving Bowsher control at their own 34-yard line. The Jackets defense contained again and for the second time of the night, Llewellyn made another big play on special teams. The junior defensive end this time blocked the Bowsher punt giving Perrysburg’s offense tremendous field position inside the Rebel 30-yard line. It didn’t take long for Slocum to take advantage of the field position as the senior quarterback danced into the end zone from 12-yards out, making the score 28-6 with 2:46 to play in the half. A 72-yard run by Bowsher set up a first and goal for the Rebels inside the Perrysburg five-yard line with 2:27 to play in the half. Facing fourth and goal now from the two-yard line, the Rebels forced their way through for their second scoring play of the night making the score 28-12 going into halftime. Perrysburg began the third quarter just as they ended the half. After a Bowsher three and out, Perrysburg took a drive starting at their own 11-yard line, 89 yards for another score, the third from Delas–this one from three yards out. Not to be outdone, Slocum notched his third touchdown run roughly three minutes later. The quarterback, using his feet, ran from 11-yards out for the score giving Perrysburg a commanding 42-12 lead with just under two minutes to play in the third quarter. Perrysburg’s offense, now directed by junior quarterback Nick Fleming, continued to move into the fourth quarter. Fleming directed the Jackets on their final scoring drive that saw junior running back Kenny Zimmerman scoring from seven-yards out making the score 49-12 with 6:02 to play. A later Bowsher touchdown, with 49 seconds to play, rounded out the scoring and made the final score 4918 in favor of the visiting Jackets. In addition to his 115 yards rushing, Slocum was also 11 for 15 passing for 112 yards with one interception. The senior also kicked all seven extra points and recorded four tackles on defense from his safety position. In addition to his offensive showcase, Delas also paced the defense with seven tackles, including three for a loss and one sack. Senior linebacker Kyle Durham notched six tackles and Llewellyn recorded five tackles, including a sack. Perrysburg will seek its second victory on Friday when they travel to Oregon Clay to take on the Eagles.

The City of Perrysburg employs 154 individuals plus 60 seasonal employees who serve the more than 20,000 Perrysburg residents. Features will give residents the opportunity to meet city employees and learn how each job contributes to the “quality of life” in the city. Police Division The Perrysburg Police Division is staffed by 45 full-time employees in a variety of assignments that provide protection and police services to the Perrysburg community. Those employees include the chief of police, the deputy chief of police, the support services manager, six sergeants, 25 police officers, seven communication officers, two records clerks, one secretary and one animal control officer. Thirty-three employees of the police division are sworn employees (swear an oath of office upon employment) and are required to maintain Ohio Peace Officer Certification. The other 12 members of the division are civilian employees and serve in essential support functions of the police division. The police division also employs permanent parttime school crossing guards assigned to eight crossing locations throughout the city. They assist children in safe crossing of streets in the morning as elementary students walk to school and in the afternoon as students return home. The police division’s organizational structure is divided into two service branches identified as police operations and police support services. Deputy Chief Mike Gilmore oversees police operations and Support Services Manager Amanda Owens oversees police support services. Police operations, under the general oversight of Deputy Chief Gilmore, is comprised of two bureaus and a variety of police functions and assignments. The two bureaus are the patrol bureau and the detective bureau. The patrol bureau is staffed by five patrol sergeants and 22 patrol officers. Patrol sergeants are the direct supervisors of the officers assigned to uniform patrol duty and manage the day-to-day operation of the three shifts. The patrol bureau staff is the most recognized component of a police agency. The officers wear a traditional police uniform and work out of a marked police vehicle. These officers make up the largest part of the division’s workforce and are often referred to as the back-bone of a police agency. Many police agencies serving small communities may lack other support personnel and services but employ uniform patrol personnel who provide police patrol and front door delivery of police service. The work of the patrol bureau encompasses a wide variety of duties and assignments. Those duties include the functions normally associated with police work, such as patrolling the streets in a marked police vehicle, enforcing traffic laws, investigating traffic crashes, responding to calls for service from the public, providing security and traffic control for parades, community functions and special events, and participating in community rela- Deputy Chief Michael Gilmore Chief Daniel O.

Other patrol bureau assignments that interact with the public include the bicycle patrol unit, the D.A.R.E. officer and animal control officer. The animal control officer exercises limited enforcement authority with regards to complaints involving animal calls. In the next article, the focus will be on other personnel and functions within the police division who are not as recognizable to the public but provide essential support that facilitates police service and enhances the quality of service. The members of the Perrysburg Police Division diligently continue their efforts providing the community with the best service and protection that they are able to achieve. In doing so, the police division strives to maintain the quality of life that Perrysburg residents have come to expect and deserve. Detective Bureau The Perrysburg Police Division detective bureau is staffed by three detectives along with a detective sergeant. The detective bureau’s primary function is to investigate any cases directly assigned to it with a special focus on major crimes. The bureau serves as a support function to the patrol bureau. Detectives assist patrol officers with case investigations, and provide technical support in such areas as crime and accident scene photography, evidence collection and processing, digital imaging, surveillance, search warrant preparation and execution, and interviewing witnesses, victims and suspects. Additionally, detectives are responsible for the documentation of their investigations with thorough report writing as well as gathering all supporting documentation to be presented to the prosecuting attorneys for case preparation for trial. Detectives also testify in court when necessary. Some administrative functions the detective bureau is responsible for include background investigations for potential employee candidates and assistance in the field training program. Perrysburg police detectives are considered to be general investigators and may be asked to investigate any type of criminal offense. However, each detective has his own area of special knowledge. The detective bureau currently is staffed by Detective Sergeant Mark Baumgardner, Detective Doug Kinder, Detective Nick Cook and Detective Pat Jones. Detective Sgt. Baumgardner has been assigned to the detective bureau since 2008. His duties include overseeing the bureau and assigning cases to each investigator. Additionally, Sgt. Baumgardner will review reports and investigations by the detectives working in the bureau. He maintains an investigative caseload as well. Detective Kinder has been an officer with the Perrysburg Police Division since 1986 and has been assigned to the detective bureau since 2007. Detective Kinder ’s duties include investigating cases assigned to him and arresting the offenders when appropriate. Additionally, he responds to crime scenes and collects evidence, following up with witnesses and suspects. Detective Kinder has worked extensively with drug investigations within the city and with area law enforcement agencies in the proactive enforcement of drug laws. Detective Cook has been an officer with the Perrysburg Police Division since 1999 and assigned to the detective bureau since 2005. Detective Cook’s responsibilities also include responding to crime scenes, collection of evidence, following up with witnesses and suspects, and documenting cases. He has had extensive experience with many of the financial crimes that occur within the city including fraud, passing bad checks, embezzlement, identity theft and the like. In 2009 a new position was created within the detective bureau for a juvenile detective. The responsibilities include the investigation of cases with a juvenile as a victim, witness or perpetrator. The juvenile detective also serves as a liaison with the Perrysburg Junior and Senior High Schools and responds to any issues where the schools may require assistance. Additionally, the juvenile detec- tive serves as a liaison with other county agencies like the juvenile court and Wood County Children Services. The juvenile detective also may be asked to investigate other cases as needed. Detective Jones has been an officer with the Perrysburg Police Division since 2004 and assigned to the detective bureau since 2009. Detective Jones was brought into the detective bureau as the juvenile detective. Since he has been assigned to the juvenile detective position the police division has become involved with the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task force. As a part of this task force, Detective Jones has been involved with the proactive investigations into the possession and distribution of child pornography. Many of these investigations have led to the identification and prosecution of offenders within Wood County. In addition to these investigations, he has received training in forensic analysis of computers, which has been utilized at great length within the detective bureau. The Perrysburg Police Division Detective Bureau is committed to providing excellent investigative service to the community. In doing so, a detective serves in an on-call status while off-duty in order to respond to complaints and crime scenes during offhours. Each of the detectives rotates through an on-call status throughout each month to cover the needs of the community. The new 23,750-square-foot state of the art collision and repair facility–Ed Schmidt Wreck Center–recently celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon cutting ceremony and festivities. Located at 26875 North Dixie Highway, the Wreck Center features dual drive-ins, four spray booths, race track design and live cameras to view repairs.

Youth from Whispering Winds Church worked with Brother's Keeper recently to help those who are financially or physically unable to repair their homes. Supplies for the repairs were donated by local businesses and community members. The youth worked from July 8 to 16 in Ripley and Ravenswood, West Virginia, and they also assisted with disaster relief after severe weather blasted through the region. The youth repaired roofs, built wooden ramps for those in wheelchairs, stained decks, repainted the interior of homes, and repaired leaking ceilings and rotting floors. There was a total of 52 projects they worked on to help those in need. Above are Perrysburg residents Jen Hoffman, Olivia Wesley, Mckenzie Weaver, Austin Brooks and Austin Davis.

Nikko is exceptionally friendly and adores human attention. She waits at the door of her cage for someone to come pet her! Nikko is considered special needs because she is FIV+. She can only be housed with other FIV+ cats, or a single cat home. FIV is not contagious to humans or other species, and cats with this illness will live long and happy lives if taken care of. Nikko's adoption fee is waived. Please visit or call the Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339 to learn more about this great pet.
