Former Perrysburg firefighter Dr. Chris Goliver coming home
Mercy recently unveiled its proposed emergency and diagnostic center on the corner of State Route 25 and
Eckel Junction Road.
Pictured from left, are Wood County Commissioner Tim Brown, Dr. Chris Goliver, Perrysburg Mayor Nelson
Evans and Wood County Commissioner Joel Kuhlman.
Dr. Chris Goliver, medical director of Mercy LifeStar and Life Flight services,
said he is very excited about
what this new facility will
mean to Perrysburg. The
doctor said he actually started this venture several years
ago as an employee of the
City of Perrysburg.
A former Perrysburg firefighter/paramedic, he worked
his way through the ranks of
the Perrysburg Fire Division
to deputy chief. After taking
a psychological profile exam
required for city employees,
it was recommended the firefighter may want to consider
a new career.
“It was on that test that
Eric Summons [psychologist
who administered the exam]
called me back into his office
and recommended me for the
position of deputy chief,”
explained the doctor. “And at
the same time, he sat me
down and said, ‘Chris, I want
you to consider a career
change. I want you to consid-
er becoming a physician.’
Well, my whole family is
firefighters–my grandfathers,
my father and myself–that is
all I ever knew. Little did I
know he planted a seed and
we can say the rest is history
because here we are today
coming back home.”
Dr. Goliver said as a paramedic and physician he has
seen first hand what a difference seconds can make in
saving a life. “Being able to
have that immediate treatment can make a profound
impact in quality of care we
need and the ultimate outcome for your patient.”
He recognized the firefighters and paramedics of
the Perrysburg Fire Division.
“I salute you guys– you are

‘In 1972, he was the most popular and trusted man in America’
Perrysburg native Douglas Brinkley comes home to share stories on Walter Cronkite
By Deb Buker
“And that’s the way it is”
on Wednesday, June 20, at
Way Public Library. More
than 300 community members and friends filled the
aisles of the library to welcome home Perrysburg
native, author and professor
Douglas Brinkley.
The author of the current
best-seller biography on
Walter Cronkite, “Cronkite,”
shared stories about the CBS
icon and why he decided to
write the biography.
“I want to tell you a little
bit about why I am here
tonight
with
Walter
Cronkite,” he told the group.
“My father used to work for
Owens Illinois in Toledo and
my mom was a teacher at
Perrysburg High School and
we would watch, as so many
of you did, the CBS News
with Walter Cronkite in the
evenings. He sort of was
seared in my childhood
memories–as much as when
you go down Louisiana
Avenue or Country Charm
Shopping Center or going
past all the old haunts when
you come back home.
“It dawned on me that
Cronkite needed to be taken
more seriously in history
when I was in New Orleans
with the great writer David
Halberstam. He made the
comment that Cronkite was
the most significant journalist in the second half of the
20th century. It kind of took
me aback because I always
thought of print reporters as
being the ones that count. As
we talked about it, I knew he
was right and he said that
somebody should write his
biography.”
Mr. Brinkley, who lives
in Texas with his wife and
three children, then called
his literary agent and asked
if anyone was writing a
biography on the news
anchor, and the answer was
no. And so the author had
his next book.
“And coincidently, all of
his papers had just been
donated to the University of
Perrysburg Mayor Nelson Evans, left, presented Douglas Brinkley with a War
of 1812 Commemorative Challenge Coin. One side has a ship depicted on it and
the reverse side the Commodore Statue, Fort Meigs and a river scene.
“On behalf of the City of Perrysburg, you are the first recipient of the Mayor’s
Honorary Coin for Excellence,” said the mayor.
Texas,” added the author.
“He spent two years at UT
as a Longhorn and then
Cronkite dropped out. But
never the less, when I say a
paper collection, what we do
as historians is read other
peoples mail. We are going
back looking at the past. So
to have all of Cronkite’s correspondence, diaries, papers
and photographs all in one
library depository was a
great boon. After that, since
I am the historian for CBS, I
was able to get access to all
of their corporate papers,
private papers of the company and then the fact that I
knew Cronkite slightly–
now when I say slightly,
many of you know that I am
from Perrysburg.”
The Perrysburg native’s
first encounter with Mr.
Cronkite was in 1992 at a
book signing for Mr. Brinkley’s first book, “Dean
Acheson: The Cold Years.”
“A well-heeled couple in
New York threw a book
party for me, my first book,
and it was a big deal. I was
going to autograph my book
in front of people,” said the
author. “And low and
behold in line was Walter
Cronkite–wow, I made it.
The guy I used to watch
every night in Perrysburg is
now at my book signing.
Well, he got up to the autograph desk and he said,
‘well how ya doing? I
haven’t seen you since
North Carolina when we
went sailing with your
father.’ I thought, my father
doesn’t know you–he
thought I was David Brinkley’s son. I was suddenly in
a bit of a conundrum
whether to tell him or listen
to him and sign the book
and let him go his way. But I
eventually interrupted him
because he was getting too
detailed about the sailing
trip. I said, ‘Mr. Cronkite, I
am no relation to David
Brinkley’ and he had a complete look of being shellshocked. He turned a shade
of red and said, ‘oh well, I
like Dean Acheson quite a
bit too’ and I signed the
book for him and watched
him just slink out of the
room.”

Mercy announces plans for emergency and diagnostic center in Perrysburg
By Deb Buker
Mercy Health System
recently announced plans to
open the region’s first fullservice, free-standing emergency and diagnostics center
in Perrysburg.
The proposed 15,000square-foot facility, to be
located near the corner of
State Route 25 and Eckel
Junction Road, will feature
10 exam rooms, lab services
and imaging services typically found in hospital settings
including MRI scans, CT
scans, 3D mammography,
digital radiology ultrasound
and Dexascan.
At a press conference
held at the site last week,
Andrea Price, president and
CEO of Mercy, welcomed
guests, members of the Perrysburg business community,
elected and appointed officials, healthcare experts and
extended Mercy family.
“This is a big day for
Mercy–one that represents
our conviction and our mission–to respond to communities and provide healthcare to
the under served,” she said.
“And we believe that today
represents a significant
change to Perrysburg– a
change that we feel would
benefit everyone here. It is
exciting to know that today
we are going to introduce
another piece of healthcare in
this community so people
have access to quality healthcare but also a convenient
location for them.”
She told the group the
new facility will offer the
same level of care a patient
would receive at a hospital.
The new Mercy Emergency
and Diagnostic Center will
be staffed by board certified
and board eligible emergency
room physicians and a team
of experienced emergency
staff delivering comprehensive emergency services
around the clock.

However, Mr. Brinkley
was able to meet with the
CBS anchor several times
later and Mr. Cronkite wrote
a jacket blurb for the
author’s book, “American
Heritage History of the
United States.”
“I am a member of the
Century Club in New York
and Mr. Cronkite would
come in and I got to have
some lunches with him. I
knew him a little and about
eight months before he died,
I had dinner with him at this
condo,” said the historian.
“He did not have full-blown
Alzheimer’s–he was able to
talk to me about the 1930s
and 40s, but yet he did not
know what city he was in. It
doesn’t feel right to call it an
interview, but I tell you
this–I got to know him some
and it helped me understand
his personality. He let me
look at his memorabilia and
things, which is helpful to
do a contemporary biography.”
The author reached out to
the Cronkite children, who
were incredibly helpful, he
added. Mr. Brinkley told the
group that he also does radio
shows while working on a
book to tell people what or
whom he is writing on
because people may call and
tell stories or have additional information about the person or event.
“I was doing the Don
Imus radio show and I was
called by a guy in Illinois
who told me he had all of
Walter Cronkite’s love letters from high school. The
circumstance was that he
[Mr. Cronkite] fell in love
with a girl that was a junior
when he graduated as a
senior. She moved to Illinois
with her family so he had to
correspond with her– hence
this great batch of love letters.”
The Cronkite stories
shared by the author were
abundant–from his growing
up years to his CBS fame

There’s a new officer on
duty in Perrysburg Township
and although he may not be
the tallest, he is certainly the
youngest and fastest and can
detect trouble in the air–literally.
At the June 20 meeting,
the Perrysburg Township
trustees were formally introduced to K9 “X” who joined
the department just a few
weeks ago.
The newest member of
the department began active
duty a few weeks ago after
completing six weeks of
intensive training in Columbus with his handler, Officer
Jason Gladney.
“We got a good dog, his
temperament is awesome,”
said Officer Gladney of his
1-year-old companion.
A German shepherd from
the Czech Republic, X has
been busy during his first
few weeks.
“We had a stabbing near
Evergreen apartments and
did an article search,” said
his handler.
X also was brought in
when Sergeant Matt Gazarek
suspected drugs during a
traffic stop.
“He found 1,400 pills and
one ounce of marijuana,”
said Officer Gladney.
The K9 has been
involved in other traffic
stops in which heroin, pills
and marijuana were found.
“He’s actually doing really well,” said his handler.
Officer Gladney said X is
trained in several areas.
“He’s a dual purpose dog,”
he explained.
The K9 can assist in
apprehension of a criminal.
When a suspect surrenders,
X will circle and contain the
suspect until ordered back by
Officer Gladney.
The K9 also is trained in
bite work and will bite down
on a fleeing suspect until the
suspect surrenders.
“The bite is not considered deadly force. It’s somewhat like a taser,” said the
officer, adding that X “bites
properly.”

Mercy announces plans for emergency and diagnostic center
➧Continued from page 1
some of the best that I have
ever encountered. You are
great,” he told them. “You
offer a tremendous service.
The service they provide is
invaluable to the community.
When you add one more critical resource, a fully staffed
hospital quality emergency
care center, we are going to
be able to take that level up
another notch. It is going to
be wonderful.”
Involved with Mercy
Health System for more than
10 years, Dr. Goliver said he
is impressed with their emergency and trauma services.
“Their standards are of the
utmost,” he added. “This new
free standing emergency center will provide state-of-theart facilities that will allow
our staff of emergency
trained doctors, nurses and
clinical services do what they
do best–which is to save
lives.
“The new center will treat
all levels of illness and injury
whether you are one week
old or 101 years old. We are
here to serve you with the
highest quality of care that
has been synonymous with
Mercy for the last 157
years–that is amazing.”
The new facility is designed to be patient-friendly.
It will have specialized treatment centers for trauma, cardiac resuscitation, orthopedic
injury, women’s care and designated pediatric area. Patients needing to be admitted
to the hospital, such as those
requiring surgery or heart attack patients will be treated,
stabilized and transported as
appropriate. The facility has
immediate access for ambulances and a helipad will be
available if needed for rapid
transport.
“We are centering this
around the patient–you are
our primary cause,” said Dr.
Goliver. “Finally, I would
like to say this is a great day
for the citizens of Perrysburg
and the surrounding areas.
For me personally, it is a
dream come true. I am so excited to return to the Perrysburg area. It is here that I
started my journey thanks to
that test, and with the connection Mercy has made to Perrysburg with its life saving
technology and with a highly
trained staff. It is going to
make Perrysburg even a better place to live.”
Perrysburg Mayor Nelson
Evans welcomed Mercy to
the city and welcomed the return of former deputy fire
chief. “Maybe we should do
away with those psychological tests–we lose too many
good employees,” said the
mayor.
“This is another component of our quality of life here
in Perrysburg,” he added.
“With at least 100 medic runs
Perrysburg native Douglas Brinkley comes home
conventions, space travel
and the 1960 Olympics.
In 1962, Mr. Cronkite
became the CBS evening
news anchor.
“That is the year that really brought Cronkite a
step forward and we all remember the Kennedy assassination.
Cronkite
guided our country through
that,” said Mr. Brinkley. “I
traveled around and talked
to people and they remembered the assassination–
well, what they remembered was Walter Cronkite
telling us about the assassination. He was our filter for
all these events when we
didn’t have so many media
outlets. He was our pastor,
our minister throughout
those tragic times.
“He guided us through
Bobby Kennedy’s assassination, Martin Luther
King’s assassination and
the Chicago Democratic
convention. The two men
standing proud at the end
of 1968 were Walter
Cronkite and Richard
Nixon.”
The author also stated
that Mr. Cronkite’s coverage of Neil Armstrong’s
walk on the moon was his
greatest performance.
“Everyone was wondering what Armstrong would
say on the moon but they
also were wondering what

added the author. “We all
know what Armstrong said,
‘this is one small step for
man, one giant leap for
mankind”–very powerful.
And then Cronkite says
those famous words–‘by
golly, I’m speechless.’
“They loved him so
much, by 1972 polls had
him the most popular man
in America and the most
trusted man in America.
His sign off, ‘and that’s the
way it is’ with the date became known by all of us.
“It was hard for a biographer to be balanced and I
did. I tell hard stories about
Cronkite that are true but it
was very hard to find
somebody who didn’t like
him.”
Mr. Cronkite died in
2009. At his death bed,
Jimmy Buffet was playing
his ukulele and singing
songs to him–they were
close friends, said the author.
Mr. Brinkley and his
family are spending a
month in the Perrysburg
area before heading back to
Texas. What will bring the
author back to his hometown again? Maybe a possible biography on Oliver
Hazard Perry.
each month within the city,
this is going to add some
extra time-saving minutes
that could save the number of
lives. This is a great addition
to our community. Congratulations, and let’s build.”
Also addressing the
group, Dennis Johnson,
chairman of the Mercy board
of trustees, again stated it was
a big day for Mercy. “However, it is a bigger day and
more important day for the
residents of Perrysburg and
the surrounding area.
“As you heard from Dr.
Goliver, in cases of critical
injuries and illnesses, minutes save lives. The people of
Perrysburg deserve the same
level of care that they are accustomed to in hospitals.
They deserve to have care in
their hometown. That is what
guided our decision to establish this new facility–in Perrysburg there was a need,
Mercy was in a perfect posi-
tion to meet that need.
“We are very fortunate to
have a doctor of Chris Goliver’s experience and energy
to lead this new venture. He
has been involved with top
performing emergency care
services across northwestern
Ohio. This facility will reflect
Mercy’s long standing commitment to care and compassion. I am confident the
residents of Perrysburg and
the surrounding area will see
a valuable community resource when we open this facility in early 2013. We think
this is going to be a leading
edge facility and the residents
of Perrysburg are going to
experience some wonderful
care as a result of it.”
Pending approval by the
Perrysburg Planning Commission and Perrysburg City
Council, groundbreaking will
be scheduled in the fall with
the facility opening in 2013.

Other Business
In other business, the
trustees:
•Agreed with a recommendation by Fire Chief Tom
Brice to begin billing for
motor vehicle accidents in
which the township provides
assistance.
Chief Brice spoke with the
fire chief from Van Wert who
bills for accidents. “He said it
has been a good thing for
them. My recommendation is
that we pursue this,” he said. Trustee Gary Britten
agreed, “I think it’s a good
idea.”
•Approved as minor
changes two zoning revisions

George and Sue Gusses of
30248 Waterford are adding a
pergola to their home which
would extend beyond the
building envelope, and

the building envelope.
The trustees approved the
changes, noting that residents
opposed the request but the
township zoning commission
and the Waterford housing association and architectural review
committee
had
approved the changes.

Ron Schmidt, PT, recently authored an article discussing the
unique non-surgical spinal protocols practiced at Holiday Park
published in a national rehab magazine that was distributed to
93,000 medical professionals. Last fall he and Brad Good, PTA,
began instructing medical professionals across the country in
continuing education courses, detailing them on this unique technology that was born here in northwest Ohio.
Owners of Holiday Park Physical Rehab are currently in a
joint venture in Sarasota, Florida, opening a physical therapy
clinic there in early July. The Sarasota clinic will serve as an outpatient rehab clinic as well as a training facility for therapists
around the country. This new technology has eliminated the need
for hundreds of spinal surgeries and other invasive interventions.
All of this is causing healthcare professionals to want more information, since the non-surgical treatment of spines has changed
little in 40 years.

Summer evening walking tours Public forum scheduled on new
offered at Woodlawn Cemetery Healthy Lake Erie Fund July 10
Summer Evening Strolls
will be held on the second
Thursdays of July and Au-
gust, at Woodlawn Cemetery.
Each tour begins at 6 p.m.
and lasts approximately 90
minutes.
Guides Fred Folger and
Robert Lamlein will lead
participants on the discovery
of Toledo’s industrial pioneers. Walkers will learn
about many of the cemetery’s architectural landmarks, including the area’s
extensive collection of private mausoleum.
Founded in 1876, Woodlawn Cemetery is listed on
the National Register of Historic Places. Its development
paralleled the growth of
Toledo for much of the late
19th and early 20th century.
Although Woodlawn was
considered an example of
the “rural cemetery movement” when its gates first
opened, the city’s expansion
gradually transformed it into
a quiet natural retreat well
within the city limits.
Historic
Woodlawn
Cemetery also is home to
more than 300 species of
trees, making it one of the
finest arboretums in northwest Ohio.
A public forum will be
held July 10 for residents interested in learning more
about Ohio’s new Healthy
Lake Erie Fund with an opportunity to provide input on
solutions to resolving the
lake’s algae problems.
State
Representative
Randy Gardner, sponsor of
the Healthy Lake Erie Fund,
will host the forum with invited guests Director Jim
Zehringer of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Director David
Daniels of the Ohio Department of Agriculture and Ohio
EPA Director Scott Nally.
“No issue is more important to the environmental and
economic health of our region than protecting Lake
Erie,” said Rep. Gardner.
“The new Healthy Lake Erie
Fund can be an important
next step in helping to solve
the algal bloom problems
that have been getting worse
in recent years. This is an
opportunity for the public to
become additionally involved in being part of the
solution.”
The forum will begin at 4

Youth ages 8-17 are encouraged to learn about real-life heroes – police officers, firefighters and
emergency medical technicians. You will learn what it is like to enter a virtual burning structure
wearing firefighter gear as you search for a missing person in rooms filled with smoke and (virtual)
flames; use the “Jaws of Life” to rescue a victim trapped in a car; leap from the top of a four-story
building as you learn to use rope rescue techniques; watch as K9s take down the bad guys and search
for explosives or drugs; learn what it is like to be a member of a SWAT Team as you experience the
training, then don the gear and respond to a bank robbery in process; join members of the bomb squad
as you enter a terrorist safe house laced with booby traps; witness the “live explosives” demonstration
and round out the camp by learning first aid. All this and more! Snacks are provided.

City of Perrysburg
Park Bureau, Bureau of Refuse and Recycling
and Summer Litter Crew
The City of Perrysburg Parks Bureau. Standing, from left are Jerry Rehard, Dante Sabo, Dave Brossia, Justin Santchi, Jody Sheets and
John Conley. Seated, from left are Mike Durham, Rudy Benavidez, Andrew Petrie, Josh Siebert, Spencer Brogan, Noah Ryan and Micah
Carter. Not pictured–Matt Bondy and Jerry Sass.
This is a continuation of
a series on the City of Perrysburg’s departments,
divisions, offices and
bureaus.
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.
Parks Bureau
By Greg Kuhr
Superintendent of
Lands and Sanitation
The Parks Bureau consists of six full-time and
nine seasonal employees.
The crew is responsible for
the maintenance of all 11
city parks and playgrounds
totaling approximately 170
acres.
The staff also maintains
other city properties
including the municipal
offices, police, fire, courts,
engineering, senior center,
Schaller Memorial and the
public service division.
Along with the mowing
and trimming of these areas
the crew handles roadside
mowing; cleans park shelters and restrooms; plants,
trims and removes trees,
and cleans storm damages.
The crew is a very diverse
group with many talents
which includes carpentry,
painting, landscaping,
welding and fabrication.
Other responsibilities
are the annual brush and
leaf collection, mosquito
control, holiday lighting
and snow and ice removal
from streets, lots and sidewalks.
This past year, crews
collected 716 tons of
leaves and 690 tons of
brush. These materials
were hauled to the city
compost site, processed
into usable mulch and
available to residents to
pick up for their use.
As the superintendent of
the Parks Bureau, I would
like to introduce the crew
and highlight the years of
service.
Jerry Rehard is a heavy
equipment operator for the
parks bureau and has 36
years of service. Mr.
Rehard is the senior man in
the parks bureau and who
we call on for painting projects.
Dave Brossia is a light
equipment operator for the
parks with 33 years of service. Mr. Brossia is my
“tree guy.” He plans to
retire this month and his
experience and knowledge
will be missed.
John Conley is a heavy
equipment operator and has
17 years of service with the
bureau. He is quite the
welder and fabricator of
the group.
Jody Sheets is a light
equipment operator and has
16 years of service. One of
his duties is roadside mowing and he also does a lot
of our tree work.
Matt Bondy is a light
equipment operator with 13
years of service. He is the
carpenter of the crew and
also is involved with the
tree trimming.
Justin Santchi is a light
equipment operator with 12
years of service with the
city. He joined the parks a
couple of years ago from
the refuse bureau. Mr.
Santchi is multi-talented,
as is the whole crew.
The Parks Bureau has
seasonal employees in two
groups. We have early hires
who start in spring with
mowing and clean-up while
regular employees are
doing spring brush collection. Then later as the
school year ends, the city
hires college and high
school students to fill additional needs.
Jerry Sass is an 11-year
seasonal employee and
does the watering in the
downtown streetscape and
landscape beds throughout
the city. He is a Chrysler
retiree.
Rudy Benavidez and
Mike Durham are in their
first season with the city.
Both are retirees from
Chrysler Corporation.
Dante Sabo also is a
first season employee has a
background in the con-

struction field.
Andrew Petrie and Noah
Ryan are second year
employees and are students. Andrew attends Ohio
State University and Noah
attends the University of
Toledo.
Students Spencer Brogan, Joshua Seibert and
Micah Carter are first season employees. Spencer
and Joshua attend Owens
Community College and
Micah will be attending
Eastern Michigan University.
Bureau of Refuse and
Recycling
The Bureau of Refuse
and Recycling consists of
nine full time employees.
The bureau covers the city
weekly collection of refuse
and recycling.
The city is divided into
five collection areas with
yard waste collection the
same day as refuse and
recycling April thru
November. The men work
six Saturdays each year to
cover the major holidays.
Last year the crews collected 6,485.75 tons of
garbage and 1,422.68 tons
of recyclables.
They do a terrific job,
especially with the adverse
weather conditions they
sometimes face. All crew
members hold a CDL
license and are capable of
driving when needed.
Dan Hayes is the
bureau’s crew leader and
truck driver. A six year
employee with the city, he
also worked in the water
pollution control division.
Tom Williams is a
refuse truck driver and has
32 years of service. He is
planning his retirement for
August this year. Mr.
Williams is very dedicated
and will be missed.
Mike Shuman and Andy
Hartman are the other truck
drivers in the bureau. Mr.
Shuman is an eight year
employee and Mr. Hartman
a four year employee.
These drivers do a great
job for the city and keep
fellow employees safe on
the back of the trucks.
Mike Kasza a seven
year employee, Keith Shue
a four year employee, Herman Shiffler a two year
employee and Jeremy
Hurst, our newest crew
member with six months,
are the laborers of the
crew. These guys are truly

the muscle of the group
and really do a nice job for
the city. The refuse and
recycling collection takes a
team effort and these men
do it well.
Summer Litter Crew
By Judy Hagen
Program Coordinator
for Office of Litter
Prevention and
Recycling
The summer litter crew
does much more than pick
up litter along the roadside
and on public property.
The work season begins
when spring arrives. The
first two members of the
crew start with spring
cleanup of flower beds.
They are joined by volunteer Adopt-A-Spot groups
for the Great American
Cleanup to clean litter from
their adopted areas and to
spring clean. The other
members of the crew are
students.
During the growing season of May through the
September, the city crews
tend
to
all
the
plantings/landscape at city
buildings which includes
municipal courthouse,
municipal building and
city buildings across Indiana Avenue including the
fire division, senior center,
Schaller building and engineering.
In the downtown area,
they make certain the
streetscape and three
downtown parking lots are
ready for Farmers Market
and First Friday activities.
A member of the crew,
Jerry Sass, daily waters all
the hanging baskets that
line the downtown business
district and waters the
flower pots at Louisiana
dock and the municipal
building. The crew also
plants and maintains the
landscape plantings at the
11 city parks.
This year the crew has
the new maintenance
responsibility of the
Roachton Road boulevard
and Michael Owens Way.
The crew applies mulch
to all plantings to help prevent weed growth and
retain moisture.
Last year, the crew
applied 33 dump trucks of
mulch
to
all
the
plantings/landscape they
maintain. This mulch was
made from the spring city
brush collection and other
branches dropped off by
residents at the city compost site.
When the weather gets
hot, the crew places the
tree watering bags at all the
new trees planted in fall
2011 and spring 2012.
Staff includes: Wayne
Eilers, crew leader, second
year with the city; Justin
Mickels, summer employee; McKenzie Chalfant,
Perrysburg resident and
sophomore at Defiance
College; Will Brundrett,
Perrysburg High School
graduate who will begin his
second year at the University of Cincinnati, and
Dean Mills, PHS graduate
who will be a freshman at
University of Toledo this
fall.

“Dream Big…Read” is
the theme for summer reading at Way Public Library.
Thanks to support from
Owens-Illinois, many children and their families have
made the library a frequent
destination this summer.
All ages are coming to
the library on a regular basis
to participate in the activities
aimed to encourage children
to continue reading over the
summer months.
The prizes given this
week were a coupon from
McDonald’s for a free
cheeseburger.
Boys and girls who have
had books read to them and
have recorded them on their
reading logs are:

Millie is a beautiful young lady who
came to us from the dog warden. Millie is
very good with people and knows "sit"
and "speak". She likes to climb on top of
the dog house and picnic table outside
and would probably sit on a couch in a
home. She is very playful, curious, and
trusting. She would require daily walks
and something to keep her busy. She is
very externally motivated and responds
well to praise, toys, and food.
Please visit or call the Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339
to learn more about this great pet. All of our adoptable animals can be

Bakeless Bake Sale raises funds for Toledo Opera
The Toledo Opera Guild’s Bakeless Bake Sale 2012 earned a record-breaking $3,613 in
less than three months, which more than doubles the previous high of several years ago.
The event was chaired by Heather Toner and based on an original concept by her when
her daughter, Calista Toner, suggested they work on an event together to benefit the
Toledo Opera. Ms. Toner, Calista and her peers, Wendy Kromer-Schell and the guild were
honored for their efforts in a Proclamation by Toledo Mayor Michael Bell. The Bakeless
Bake Sale also was featured on WTOL Channel 11’s “Morning Show.” Pictured, from left,
are: Toledo Opera Guild’s Education and Outreach Chairman Diane Shull; Calista Toner;
regular collaborator with Martha Stewart and WKCafe owner Wendy Kromer-Schell, and
WTOL news anchorwoman Tina Shaerban.

Doug Grosjean, local
whitewater kayaker, photographer and author, will recount the adventure of a life
time–rafting the Grand
Canyon–in a special talk at
Way Public Library on Monday, July 9, at 7 p.m.
Mr. Grosjean basically
lived in the Canyon for three
weeks on this rafting trip
along the Colorado River.
Rafters brought their own
equipment–sleeping bag, tent,
boating gear, personal items,
and other gear.
He will talk about his 280mile trip through the Canyon.
His group consisted of men
and women of various outdoor abilities, all comfortable
in big whitewater. Mr. Grosjean was enlisted to row one
of the support rafts–which
carried food and camping
gear–due to his kayaking
background, whitewater experience, and rescue training.

Relay for Life of Perrysburg raises more than $900,000 over 15 years Six Pekin ducks abandoned at Three Meadows Pond
Celebrating its 15th anniversary, the American Cancer Society (ACS)
Perrysburg Area Relay for Life was held June 8 and 9 at Rivercrest Park.
Over the past 15 years, the Relay has raised more than $900,000. Sixty
percent of the money stays in Wood County to assist cancer patients. It
also is used for prevention, early detection and programming. The remaining 40 percent goes toward cancer research.
The theme for this year was “Harbors of Hope” with the survivor area
theme of “Keep Hope Sailing.” Participants enjoyed an evening of entertainment, activities, refreshments and a very special luminary ceremony.
Opening ceremonies kicked-off the 17-hour event with a survivor and caregiver lap followed by a team lap.
“At the American Cancer Society, we are working to create a world with
more birthdays–where cancer never steals another year from anyone’s
life,” said Lindsay Eaton, ACS Perrysburg development coordinator. “With
your help we are not just fighting one type of cancer, we’re fighting for
every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community.”
To make a donation or for additional information on the American Cancer Society and activities, contact Ms. Eaton at 888-227-6446 extension
5216 or send an e-mail to [email protected].

take the first ceremonial lap.
Recently, six Pekin ducks were abandoned at Three Meadows Pond to fend for themselves. Pekin ducks are not wild
ducks. Outside a commercial setting, the Pekin duck is becoming viewed as a pet. The friendly nature of the bird and its
non-aggressive temperament means that when raised from a youngster, it will respond to its owner. As a pet, the Pekin
duck can live as long as 12 years. Some care needs to be taken as most Pekin ducks are incapable of flight. Also they
love water, but may require assistance out of the water in the form of a ramp.
With the help of Perrysburg Animal Control Officer Jeff Studer and city staff, duck advocate Kelly Meister was able
to rescue the ducks and find a safe home environment for them.
“The poor creatures were terrified of everything and everyone and had no idea how to survive on their own,” said Ms.
Meister. “If you absolutely cannot care for that animal, please contact the humane society. Better yet, don’t get any animal that you are not prepared to take care of for its entire lifetime.”

Missions International of America to create the Ron Meier Farm Resource Center
“‘Arrival of Ravens’ expresses the freedom, beauty and mystery wild ravens command in our world,” said Gerry
Brock, creator of the handmade paper art ravens. The armatures are made from wire mesh, then covered with a base of
recycled paper. That is followed by handmade paper from Abaca pulp and beaten in a Hollander beater for three hours.
The pulp is colored with black iridescent pigment and then sheets are made and pressed. The sheets are placed on the
armatures and dried.
Perrysburg resident Dr.
Jay Nielsen, cofounder and
president of Missions International of America (MIA), said
2011 was an exciting year for
the organization.
MIA, founded in 2002 by
Dr. Nielsen and his wife Jan,
is a 501(c)3 organization
with a goal to provide medical
care, education, microeconomy and basic supplies to the
people of Haiti.
“Who thought five years
ago when we opened the Brad
Reddick School in that dry,
hopeless desert that we would
now have 55 Hire a Haitian
men and 47 bead ladies making a living wage in Savanette?” he stated.
“There are about 300 students in the school, and we
have graduated two sixthgrade classes. After 10 years
of work on infrastructure, we
have two wells–soon to be
four–and 30 gallons of clean
water–more than 7,000 feet of
mainline and 12,000 feet of
distribution water pipe. By
February, 2013, we’ll have 60
family gardens, two acres of
research gardens and 360 rabbit cages in the community.”
Dr. Nielsen recently announced that a small insurance policy to honor the life
of Ron Meier, who passed
away in July, has been committed to the creation of the
Ron Meier Farm Resource
Center.
The 3.3-acre center will
utilize containers to surround
the property which will include a guest house and conference center. The center will
allow for many new agricultural projects, he added.
“We are pending a grant
from E.C.H.O. to make the
Ron Meier Farm Resource
Center the training center for
agriculture in southeast
Haiti,” said the founder. “The
guest house will decrease
team expenses, allow for
more work hours and provide
more opportunities for connection with community
members.”
MIA is proud of what has
been accomplished over the
years, but Dr. Nielsen said
there is more work to be done.
“Each $10,000 will add a
well, well head and mile of
pipe providing water for 60
family gardens and rabbit systems,” he explained. “It is
amazing to think that using
the solar panels provided by
First Solar, this investment
could provide $1,600 in income a year to each of the 60
families for 25 years–a $2.4
million return.
“A friend suggested we rename MIA ‘Just Add Water’
at one time. It seems to be
true. In the next few years, we
pray and are working diligently toward independence
for the people of Savanette.
We expect all our teachers to
be graduates of the Brad Reddick School in a few years.
“We have tried to be good
stewards of your generous
support over the years. None
of this would be possible
without your commitment
and we are grateful.”
Dr. Nielsen added that he
is available to speak on MIA
to area groups and businesses.
MIA Current Projects
Brad Reddick School- Savanette–This nine room
school opened in 2006 with
170 students and most recently served 300 students in
kindergarten through sixth
grade. All children are fed
daily using the Consolidated
Biscuit bakery oven.
The school is named after
the late Mr. Reddick, father,
coach, Christian educator and
beloved member of the Perrysburg community. The
school is operated by Amoce
Amazan, MIA’s island coordinator. There are ten teachers
and an administrator.
Water Project-Savanette–
MIA hopes to bury six miles
of water pipe in the desert. To
date 7,000 feet of three-inch
main line and 13 water stands
for bathing, drinking and gardening has been completed.
First Solar donated 300 solar
panels. The first few dozen
have powered four solar
pumps, several orphanages as
well as providing cost free
water from 200 feet below the
desert.
Farm Resource Center:
Using ECHO and Hope Seed,
two acres of seed production
is in place and irrigated. Two
hundred Artemesia plants are
growing for replication to
treat malaria and import market product as an herbal to the
United States.
In December 2011, MIA
purchased 3.3 acres of land
across the road from the
school. Twenty-six, 40-foot
shipping containers from Port
au Prince surround the land
and create a new guesthouse
in Savanette.
With the upcoming grant
from ECHO, the center may
be the southwest Haiti agricultural training center, providing weekly training for
farmers from a fourth of Haiti.
The demonstration gardens
are for training in agricultural
techniques and to determine
what plants grow best in local
soils.
Community
Gardens–
Drip irrigation was installed
in 18 community gardens in
2011; 42 more are planned in
2012. Wire and waterers for
360 rabbit cages are in place
for 60 families to provide
family consumption and market sale for income.
CENEAH Orphanage–
One half mile north of the
school is an orphanage with
40 children who attend the
Brad Reddick School. MIA
assists
with
education,
clothes, provide medical care
and supports nutrition.
Medical Clinics–Students
and the public are seen in the
MIA medical clinic across the
road from the school. Dental
and optical clinics are planned
when staff is available for
trips.
August Benefit; Perrysburg–Each August, MIA
holds a fund-raiser, “Helping
Hands for Haiti,” at Grace
United Methodist Church. It
features bands, performances,
silent auction, competitions
and displays to support the
school.
One hundred dollars provides tuition, shoes, uniforms,
books and food for a child for
one year.
This year’s event is scheduled Sunday, August 12, from
2 to 8 p.m.
Circle of Life–MIA jewelry project employs 42
women and five men who
make bracelets, handbags,
quilling and other items from
recycled magazine pages and
other supplies.
The group is constantly
looking at new projects to add
to their product line. Each
participant has made approximately $400 each year–more
than the annual income of the
average Haitian. These
women have never had an opportunity to help feed their
families before this.

Perrysburg’s first ever ‘cash mob’ takes place
The first ever Perrysburg “cash mob” recently
took place, and according
to organizer J.D. Justus it
was a success.
The purpose of a cash
mob is for community members to join together and
support local businesses.
The concept is simple–with
$20 in hand, members of a
community come together
to shop in a locally-owned
establishment to support a
favorite local business and
the area economy, he said.
Community members
gathered at the corner of
West Second Street and
Louisiana Avenue to find
out the designated businesses for the first cash
mob by the “funny dressed”
lady–aka Mary Ann Woolley.
The businesses were Mills
Hardware and Artforms.
Also, entertaining the
crowd was the Quartet
Bernadette Trio.
“It is time to help our
small businesses who have
been there for us all these
years,” said Mr. Justus,
adding that another cash
mob is planned for later
this summer.
The C-SPAN Campaign 2012 bus, in partnership with Buckeye Cablesystem, made a stop at Way Public Library last week on its “Road to the White
House” tour, named after C-SPAN’s signature political program. The Campaign 2012 bus travels the country to promote and enhance C-SPAN’s extensive
resources and political coverage by stopping at major political events such as candidate debates and speeches in early primary states and meeting
with voters on the campaign trail. Additionally, the bus will tour state capitals, visit community events, and host students and treachers around the
nation, giving them an inside look at C-SPAN’s comprehensive educational and political resources.
The bus also made a stop at Owens Community College.

people from where the Swiss Guards stand to guard the
Pope.”
She said the Pope appeared “quite frail,” but stood outside under a canopy more than two hours for the service.
“The boys and adult male choirs sang, and the organ
played,” she said, adding that Mass was televised on four
large screen televisions strategically placed.
Following the service, they toured the Vatican and Sistine Chapel. The women traveled throughout Italy with

Gary Hinkson of Perrysburg, and his daughter Lauren,
assistant curator of collections at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Perrysburg High School graduate, took
the Perrysburg Messenger-Journal with them to Rome, Italy
in early February.
Mr. Hinkson was attending the opening of his daughter’s
curated show, “Guggenheim Collection: The American
Avant-Garde 1945–1980”, which includes works by Pollock, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Dan Flavin, Robert
Bechtle, Richard Estes, and many others.
Showcasing more than 60 exemplary works from the
museum’s permanent collection, Ms. Hinkson show traces
the key upheavals in art during the decades after World War
II and highlights the often radical challenges to traditional
notions of art and art making that emerged during the period.
“The exhibition is being shown in Rome’s historic
Palazzo delle Esposizioni in the heart of Rome, and runs
through May 6,” said Mr. Hinkson.
