Five Point Steam Threshers 54th annual reunion Sunday
Perrysburg Planning Commission will review site plans
for Kroger expansion and new Taco Bell on SR 25
At its July 31 meeting, Perrysburg Planning Commission will consider two site plans for new construction–preliminary/final site plan for an expansion of the Kroger store on Carronade Drive off US Route 20, and a preliminary site plan for a new Taco Bell to be located on State Route 25 between Lincoln Boulevard and Gloria Street.
Kroger recently purchased the vacated Sears Outlet building next to its existing store and proposed plans are to demolish that building and construct a new 123,662-square-foot Kroger store. The site plan submitted to the city’s planning and zoning division also shows a new 14,000-squarefoot retail space where the current Kroger is located.
The preliminary plan for the proposed Taco Bell shows a 2,644-square-foot building with a drive through window and 44 parking spaces. According to the planning and zoning division, if granted preliminary approval, Taco Bell has six months to submit a final site plan approval or request an
extension.
Also on the July meeting agenda is assignment of permanent zoning, Sharma annexation; preliminary plat extension, Canterbury Farms; preliminary plat extension, Riverford Plat 6; O-I Innovation Center, final site plan amendment, and reserve at Prairie Woods, preliminary plat.
Members of the planning commission include Mayor Mike Olmstead, Greg Bade, Byron Choka, Christopher Carry, Thomas Forquer, Seth Hudson
and Therese Witt.
The meetings are held in the municipal building and begin at 7 p.m.
Wood County Jail expansion plans questioned
after inmate population decreases this year
By Beth Church
Plans to expand the Wood
County jail have been accepted for years by the
county commissioners and
sheriff as a likely, although
expensive, necessity...
Until the number of inmates mysteriously decreased this year.
Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn
met recently with the Wood
County Commissioners to
discuss options for expanding the number of beds in the
jail.
The Wood County jail
was built in 1989 at the
county’s East Gypsy Lane
complex, and never has been
expanded from its original
149 beds.
For several years, the
sheriff has voiced concerns
about reaching capacity.
However this year, he
said, the average jail population has been 135 to 137.
“Not the 149, 160 or 180
like we’ve seen in the past,”
the sheriff said. [see chart]
He recently met with
Bowling Green Municipal
Judge Mark Reddin to discuss why the court’s caseload
has gone down.
In 2005, there were about
17,000 cases, but that now
stands at about 13,000.
“He doesn’t know why,”
the sheriff said. “It’s cyclical.
He feels it’s going to go back
up.”
“I don’t think society’s
changed in six months.
We’ve had these cycles before,” he continued, noting
that the jail population typically decreases each year before Christmas.
Sheriff Wasylyshyn has
presented two jail expansion
plans to the commissioners–
converting minimum security
beds to medium security for
male
inmates,
costing
$900,000, or adding 60 beds
in the adjacent former Work

Industries building, at $1.3
million, or completing both
at $2.8 million.
Commissioner
Joel
Kuhlman questioned whether
the data showing the decrease in inmates is “five
months of an anomaly.”
“Do we even need to do
the 60 bed renovation?” he
said. “It makes the decision a
lot harder.”
Acknowledging that the
commissioners were asking a
lot of questions, Commissioner Jim Carter noted,
“There’s a lot of money involved.”
“No one wants to spend
money on a jail–I understand
that,” the sheriff responded.
He pointed out that “the
type of inmates today are so
much worse than 20 years
ago–they used to go to prison
or mental health facilities.
Now they’re here.”
He referred to a recent national TV news interview of
the Cook County, Illinois
sheriff who stated, “Forty
years ago, it was not okay to
lock up people in a mental
hospital. But today, it’s okay
to lock them up in jail.”
“It’s a shift to where people with mental health issues
are ending up in county jail,”
Sheriff Wasylyshyn said.
Captain Ronda Gibson,
jail administrator, provided
the commissioners with
housing statistics for the past

12 months.
Inmates are divided into
13 classifications for housing –such as minimum security,
maximum
and
medical–plus those housed in
other county jails.
The sheriff described the
classification of inmates as
“a science.”
“People are moved constantly depending on their
behavior or issues,” he
added.
Inmates can be reclassified every 30 days.
Capt. Gibson said the
state recommendation is that
a jail not be at more than 80
percent capacity in order to
effectively classify and reclassify inmates.
Difficulties arise when
there are too many prisoners
classified in a unit with too
few beds.
For instance, minimum
security unit B has 14 male
beds. The daily number of inmates held there this year
was: January, 14; February,
13, March, 12; April, 11;
May, 11, so three of the five
months were more than 80
percent full.
In contrast, minimum security unit D has eight beds,
but the totals were: January,
12; February, 14, March, 13;
April, 14; May, 10, so all five
months were more than full
capacity.
“We can put minimum se-

curity people in secure housing, but not secure people in
minimum housing,” the sheriff said. “And that [secure] is
the most expensive because
everyone has individual
cells.”
Adding to the complicated process, Capt. Gibson
said, there often are as many
as 15 to 20 inmates who must
be separated.
“If the prosecutor has a
case with 10 people and
wants to keep them all separate, they all need to be in
different units,” she explained. “Today, there’s 12.”
Sheriff Wasylyshyn proposes converting the Work
Industries building into housing for 60 minimum security
inmates.
The Work Industries
building, now used for storage, is attached to the jail by
a hallway.
The other option would
be to change some of the
jail’s existing minimum security beds into medium security, plus converting a male
unit into a female unit, increasing 17 female beds to
31.
“A quarter of the building
can become female,” the
sheriff said. “That takes care
of a major housing issue
we’ve had for females for a
long time.”
“We have 23 females in
custody today, so there’s six
on cots,” he acknowledged.
Frequently, Wood County
jail officials call other facilities asking for female inmate
housing, but none is open.
“So we add cots,” the
sheriff said. “And a lot more
people in tight quarters leads
to physical confrontations.”
The commissioners asked
about a timeline for construction–and where inmates
would be housed in the
meantime.
The sheriff believes it will
take about six months to convert the Work Industries
building.
If that part of the conversion took place first, minimum security prisoners
could be moved to that adjacent building while the jail is
renovated for the additional
female beds.
“And then we wouldn’t
have to house anyone out,”
he added.
The commissioners asked
about only completing the
jail renovation, but the sheriff
said that option would be
costly and difficult because it
requires inmates to be
housed in other counties.
Capt. Gibson explained
some of the difficult circumstances with housing prisoners out of the county.
“Today we have 79 unsentenced people in custody–
more than half,” she said.

The Toledo-based U.S. submarine veterans
hold annual Tolling the Boats ceremony
The creed of the United
States Submarine Veterans
Inc. (USSVI) is “to perpetuate the memory of our shipmates who gave their lives in
the pursuit of their duties
while serving their country.
That their dedication, deeds
and supreme sacrifice to be a
constant source of motivation
toward greater accomplishments. Pledge loyalty and patriotism to the United States
of America and its constitution.”
Recently, the Toledobased USSVI held its annual
Tolling the Boats ceremony
and picnic at Three Meadows
Park in Perrysburg.
“In our participation, we
remember those gallant submariners who made the
supreme sacrifice while performing their duties with
honor, integrity and courage,
and we demonstrate to our
families and to our youth by
our deeds that we honor
them, we pay tribute to them,
as should all citizens of our
great nation,” said George
Shreffler, Toledo base commander.
He told those assembled
that more than 4,000 men
lost their lives serving in the
U.S. Submarine Force. And a
total of 65 U.S. submarines
have been lost in war–one
during World War I, 52 during World War II– and 12 in
peace.
The Tolling the Boats ceremony was originally established by the U.S. Submarine
Veterans of World War II.
The names of each of the
U.S. submarines lost, along
with the fate of its crew, are
read aloud as a bell is tolled
for each.
“The tolling of the ship’s
bell reminds us of the debt of
gratitude we owe to both our
departed shipmates and to
those in active service who
silently guard the honor of
our country while serving
silently under the sea,” said
Mr. Shreffler. “We shall
never forget the ultimate sacrifice they made so we all,
and especially our families
In the Tolling the Boats ceremony, the names of each U.S. submarine lost, along with
the fate of its crew, are read aloud as a bell is tolled for each.
Toledo Commander George Shreffler, right, reads the names, as Martin Bretz II, tolls
the bell.
Submarine veteran Neil Hossler places a wreath in the water in memory and remembrance of those who lost their lives serving in the submarine force.
and loved ones, enjoy the
fruits of freedom.”
The Toledo organization
was formed in December
2003 with six members. Currently, the submarine veteran
group has 45 members from
World War II diesel boats to
today’s “nuke boats,” said the
commander, adding that
members are from Toledo,
northwest Ohio, Michigan,
Tennessee and Florida.
Meetings are held at 6
p.m., the third Monday of
each month at Charlie’s
Restaurant on Airport Highway. New members are welcome.

Wood County Jail expansion
➧Continued from page 1
“We can’t ship them out with
medical issues or behavior
problems. And most jails
don’t want to take unsentenced people.”
In addition, unsentenced
prisoners trying to meet with
their attorneys require the
sheriff’s office to transport
them back to Bowling Green
often for trial preparations.
Also, some sentenced in-
Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation
mates, who perform duties in
the jail, cannot be moved because they are needed for that
work, she added.
The jail administrator
noted that most inmates do
not like to be housed in other
counties, and “they recognize
that if they misbehave or experience health problems,
they can come back to Wood
County.”
Sheriff Wasylyshyn said
the daily cost of housing 36
inmates elsewhere would
equal about $1,600 each day,
or about $300,000 for six
months.
Additional costs would be
added for overtime, transportation and fuel, which he
said would cost a half-million
dollars before renovations are
finished.
Complicating the issue,
Sheriff Wasylyshyn noted the
Child Support Enforcement
Agency building–also connected to the Work Industries
building–was to share a new
boiler system with the jail expansion. The new boiler needs
to be installed before this winter to serve both buildings.
Mr. Kuhlman suggested
the commissioners take several months to decide on the
plans.
“I personally don’t feel in
a rush,” he said.
The commissioner previously thought the 60-bed expansion was the obvious
solution, but is no longer so
sure.
“I feel we’re not in a good
position to say if we need it
or not,” he said.

Perrysburg School District
employee Eric Whitson fired
National Newspaper
Association
At a special Monday
meeting, the Perrysburg
Board of Education agreed
to terminate Eric Whitson.
Mr.
Whitson,
who
worked in the treasurer’s office, was arrested July 2 and
charged with two counts of
theft–fourth
degree
felonies–related to two
unauthorized checks totalling $80,000 that he allegedly issued from the
Perrysburg schools account
to the Bowling Green High
School Athletic Booster
Club.
An employee of the
school district since July
2004, Mr. Whitson, 30, handled accounts receivable and
student activities accounts.
Until early this year, he also
had served as treasurer of
the BGHS Athletic Booster
Club.
As of last Thursday, he
had been suspended without
pay following a formal disciplinary hearing as prescribed in the OAPSE
collective bargaining con-
tract and Ohio Revised
Code,
explained
Tom
Hosler, Perrysburg Schools
superintendent.
A member of the Ohio
Association
of
Public
School Employees, a union
that represents support staff,
Mr. Whitson was not present
at last week’s hearing.
“The district is only obligated to offer him a chance
to attend the hearing. His attendance was not required,”
the superintendent explained.
The former employee has
five days in which to file a
grievance over the termination, Mr. Hosler said.
“However, there has been

Dear Editor:
I support the letter from
Barbara Brenneman regarding
the $35-$40 million to build another school. Why?
Given the concern about the
negative state of our financial
economy–let’s “cut back” and
make do and do without. If our
economy is facing a challenge,
let’s make do with the buildings
we have and resources that are
already available.

Dear Editor:
We are in complete agreement with Barbara Brenneman’s letter that was published
on July 9, regarding the school
district’s plan to go hat in hand

The school district is in totally out-of-control mode with
their outrageous proposal to
build more “monuments” at the
taxpayers’ expense. To ask the
voters to approve another $35-

Ernie Shiffler Sr., president and owner, said that
after working for more than
50 years, he has decided to
retire.
“I’ve got lots of stuff I’d
like to get done around my
house, and maybe now I’ll
have the time to do it,” he
said.
Perrysburg Radiator has
provided general automotive
repairs to customers in Per-
rysburg and northern Wood
County since 1988. The company specialized in heating
and cooling for automotive
and industrial applications.
Mr. Shiffler has had some
unique vehicles enter his
shop over the years. “I
worked on a 1905 Cadillac,
an antique fire engine, Edsels
of various years and even funeral coaches,” he recalled.
Industrial applications he
has worked on include radiators that cool air compressors
for Cedar Point rides and
breakfast cereal dryers for
General Mills.
He noted that repairing
old and unique items often
requires improvisation.

“You can’t just go
local auto parts store and get
a part from the shelf,” he
said. “They just don’t make
replacement parts for a brush
sedan any more. If you need
something, you have to make
it from scratch.”
His reputation for repairing old vehicles has made
him well known among antique car enthusiasts, who
rely on his expertise.

basis. The shelter’s free
roaming cat room currently
houses more than 70 cats.
The WCHS also has almost 30 kittens in foster care
and those kittens will soon
need to return to the shelter.
And on a daily basis the shelter is being hard hit with requests to take in owner
surrenders, strays and kittens.
Shelter Manager Erin
McKibben said the current
overcrowding is not a problem that is exclusive to the
WCHS.
“A lot of shelters experience this boom in population
known as ‘kitten season.’
Kitten season was prolonged
a little this year due to the
harsh winter, but then it exploded on us all at once,” said Ms. McKibben.
Spring is known as “kitten season” because warmer
weather means more strays
roaming freely and more cats
N
in heat. Those two
factors
combined lead to a dramatic
increase in the number of kittens born during the spring
and summer months, and the
number of felines that are
brought into shelters.
Spring and summer also
typically are slow adoption
months for shelters like the
WCHS.
Adoption hours at the

Whether you are working
and salaried, or retired, most of
us are on fixed incomes and
cannot automatically increase
our incomes just because our
monthly expenses go up. It
seems like the school district
wants us to just sign all of our
income over to them.
Our recent tax bill for Wood
County real estate taxes was a
net amount due of $1,829.05.
Out of that amount, $1,001.05
was for Perrysburg Schools.
That means that 54.7 percent of
our property taxes go to that big

that the school district knows

PHS reunions
planned
Several Perrysburg Alumni
Association volunteers have
been working hard to plan reunion celebrations. There are
six Perrysburg High School
classes with reunions planned
this year.
The Class of 1954 will be
gathering on September 20 for
their 60th reunion. The Class
of 1959 will recognize their
55th reunion the weekend of
July 25-27. The 40th reunion
Class of 1974 also is celebrating on Harrison Rally Day,
September 20. The Class of
1984 will mark their 30th reunion on July 18-20. The Class
of 1994 will be in town August
1-3 for their 20th reunion, and
the 10th reunion will be celebrated December 26 by the
Class of 2004.
“We have heard from members of these classes, but if
there are other reunions that
are in the works, we would
love to know about them so
that we can help with planning
and spreading the word,” said
Jeff Abke, Perrysburg Schools
director of development. “Reunions are a fun way to bring
classmates together and build
on our powerful alumni network.”
“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.”
Information about the individual reunions and details on
how to register can be found
on the Perrysburg Schools

Military service members’
names sought for packages
All Saints Catholic Church

of residents of Rossford and
Perrysburg, whether or not
they are parishioners of All
Saints Church, she said.
The group is now only
sending seven packages each
month, and would like to add
to the mailing list.
A group of eight to 12 All
Saints parishioners meet once
each month to “Show Them
We Care” by praying for
troops’ safety, assembling care
packages, writing letters of
thanks and supporting family
members who have loved ones
serving overseas.
“We have also begun to
collect manufacturer’s coupons
which can be used on military
bases overseas for up to six
months past their expiration
date,” Mrs. McVicker said.
The care packages include
toiletries, snacks, socks, cards
and the latest issues of the
Rossford Record Journal and
Perrysburg Messenger Journal.
“Our position is that we
will continue to do this until
the last soldier comes home,”
she said.

Dan and Nancy Lewandowski
celebrate 40th wedding anniversary
Dr. Chris Goliver
Dan and Nancy (Grajczyk) Lewandowski of Perrysburg
will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary on July 20,
2014. They were married at St. Hyacinth in Toledo by Fr.
Joseph Kozlowski (cousin to bride). Their attendants were:
James Kocinski (Best Man) (cousin to groom), Betty
(Jagodzinski) Rybarczyk (Maid of Honor) (friend to bride),
John Grajczyk (brother to bride), Mary Lou (Lewandowski)
(Warszawski) Boggs (sister to groom), Duane Grajczyk
(brother to bride), Patricia (Kozlowski) Nigro (cousin to
bride). The reception was held at the United Glass Workers
Hall in Rossford.
Although acquaintances during childhood, Dan and
Nancy went on their first date shortly after Dan returned from
his Naval service during the Vietnam War. Sparks flew, and
they were engaged within a few months. Dan was an apprentice with IBEW Local 8, and Nancy was a secretary at Champion Spark Plug.
In 1977, they welcomed their first child, Ron (Lisa)
Lewandowski of Newnan, Georgia. Rachel (Nick) Sanyk of
Hilliard, Ohio was born in 1980, and Ryan (Jessica)
Lewandowski of Kalamazoo, Michigan was born in 1985.
Dan enjoyed 36 years as an electrician with IBEW Local
8 before retiring in 2010. He loyally served on the executive
board for many years, was a vocal participant during meetings, and attended hundreds of events including the annual
Dinner Dance, Labor Day Parade, national meetings in Washington D.C., Family Christmas parties, and numerous
fundraisers.
Nancy has been a secretary at Fort Meigs Elementary
School in Perrysburg for the past 18 years. She enjoys getting to know the students as well as helping all the teachers
and support staff by handling much of the key “behind the
scenes” duties.
Dan and Nancy currently spend their time together golfing, gardening, visiting family and friends, and enjoying their
winter home in Florida. Nancy is especially involved with
the Corvette Club of Toledo and Dan finds time to see his
“brothers” from Local 8. You may have seen them around
town having a margarita with friends or hitting the driving
range. They especially love seeing their three grandchildren
Matt, 9, (Ron and Lisa), Greta, 3, and Jay, 1, (Rachel and
Nick).
Congratulations, Mom and Dad, for 40 years of love,
laughter, and togetherness! We thank you for always showing us how wonderful life can be when you are with your one
true love. We love you! Ron, Rachel, and Ryan.

M ESSENGER J OURNAL
SECOND SECTION
This is the third in a series
of articles on Perrysburg
Township–Township Topics. It
gives residents the opportunity
to learn more about employees, services and township
government.
Perrysburg Township employs 64 full-time and 23 partpaid individuals who serve the
more than 12,000 township
residents.
In 1960 the Perrysburg
Township Trustees formed a
committee of seven citizens to
study the need for fire protection in the township.
As a result of the committee’s recommendations, the
trustees established Perrysburg
Township Fire District No. 1,
which included the entire
township except for the Village of Perrysburg. Further, the
committee recommended the
station be located in the Lime
City Road area to best serve
residents.
After personnel training
and departmental organization,
the Perrysburg Township Fire
Department (PTFD) began operating in 1962.
Fast forward to 2014–the
PTFD is still based on Lime
City Road, in a more energy
efficient and sustainable fire
station which opened in 2009.
The department is comprised of 18 full time, six part
time, and 16 volunteer firefighters. The department is led
by Chief Thomas Brice, a 21year veteran of the department.
Deputy Fire Chief James Rodriguez, a 19-year member, assists Chief Brice with
operations.
The PTFD has one full
time fire inspector, Keith
Feeney Sr., who works to ensure that the more than 300
businesses in the community
are safe places to work. In
2013, he conducted more than
400 inspections and wrote approximately 1,300 violations
of the Ohio Fire Code.
The most common violations were electrical hazards,
exit signs/lights, fire extinguishers, improper storage and
door obstructions.
The department is divided
into three shifts led by one
captain–shifts are 24 hours on,
48 hours off.
The PTFD conducts train-

ing every Tuesday night at 7
p.m. and every Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday at 10
a.m. Training sessions range
in length and cover a variety of
topics which include but are
not limited to emergency vehicle driving, pump operations,
hazardous materials, rope rescue, structural firefighting, airway management, trauma,
medical emergencies, pediatrics and geriatrics. Additional online training allows
members of the department to
garner knowledge through educational modules. Also, a
large number of personnel attend training at various conferences and schools. In 2013,
the fire department completed
more than 3,000 hours of training.
The PTFD has a community CPR program managed
by Captain Mike Vajen. In
2013, 26 classes were held educating nearly 150 people in
first aid and CPR.
In addition, the department
hosted external instructors
who taught an extra 40
classes–with a total of nearly
300 people educated in firstaid and CPR.
The cost for a class is $30
for each student. To register for
a class, contact Captain Vajen
at 419-872-3958.
Well-trained PTFD members are beneficial not only to
the more than 12,000 township
residents but to the larger community as well.
Automatic aid agreements
with Perrysburg and Rossford,
and Lake and Troy townships
illustrate how Perrysburg
Township strives to make surrounding communities a safer
place to live.
Automatic aid agreements
result in more effective operations for residents at an almost
zero cost increase.
For example, if there is a
structure fire in Perrysburg
Township, the automatic aid
agreement with Perrysburg allows the city’s fire division to
send one engine with four personnel; Perrysburg Township
would reciprocate if there is a
structure fire in the city. This
allows both entities to have
more personnel combating a
structure fire in a timely fashion. This automatic aid results
The Perrysburg Township Fire Department is located on Lime City Road.
in a safer operation for all
those involved, decreased loss
for the home owner, and the
potential to save more lives.
In 2013, the township received automatic aid 21 times
and provided automatic aid 36
times.
Last year was the fire department’s busiest year on
record with a total of 1,700
emergency responses; 305 for
fires and close to 1,400–or 82
percent of total runs–were for
emergency medical services.
Currently, the department
houses three advanced life
support (ALS) ambulances
and one ALS engine. The
third life squad was added to
the fleet in 2008 and has
proven to be a tremendous
asset by increasing service capabilities.
The goal of the department
is to provide exemplary service while working to be efficient and effective stewards of
taxpayer dollars.
For example, with the retirement of the billing clerk in
2010, the PTFD evaluated the
cost effectiveness of hiring another full- time billing clerk or
outsourcing EMS billing.
After much review and costbenefit analysis, the department belived it was a prudent
decision to hire a company
which handles billing professionally. This transition was a
great value and once the de-
partment completed the transition, they saw revenues increase from EMS runs.
The PTFD is consistently
looking for alternative avenues
for revenue as a further way to
be effective stewards. The department regularly applies for
funds through various grant
programs.
Recently they received
nearly $38,000 from the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation to fund the purchase of
two automatic cot loaders for
two of the three ambulances.
These devices automatically
lift the patient into the back of
the ambulance thereby saving
potential back injuries to personnel.
In recent years the industry
has noted chronic degenerative
injuries in fire and EMS personnel and a probable cause is
repetitive lifting by fire personnel. This device will hopefully prevent some injuries
from occurring and make for
more enjoyable and productive
careers for the employees of
Perrysburg Township Fire Department.
The outlook for the department’s future is very promising. Early in 2014, new
computer-aided dispatch and
records management systems
were implemented streamlining operations and allowing
for more reliable data collection. This cutting edge tech-
nology allows the PTFD to
continue providing exceptional
service while advancing with
the new trends in the field.
Officers have met to organize short term and long range
goals for the department including enhancing pre-plans
for high risk facilities, improve
technical rescue training, locate new training groundsand
increase training of personnel
to level of FF1 and EMT-B.
These goals are in line with
the mission and ultimately will
help ensure the department is
the best it can be at providing
EMS, fire extinguishment, fire
prevention, and fire investigation services.
Finally, the PTFD holds
several annual events–so mark
your calendars!
The department’s annual
Open House is always held the
first Saturday in October–his
year it will be October 4.
The annual Feather Party is
always held in November.
To learn more about the
Perrysburg Township Fire Department, tour Station 1 or
have a firefighter provide fire
safety education at an event or
meeting, contact the PTFD at
419-872-8850.

The Music at the Market
concert series continues tomorrow, Thursday, July 17, 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 Tom
and Alex Clawson with band
Buck 69.
Mr. Clawson describes the
band as “modern electric
blues mixed with 70s style
rock and roll.
“All of our shows are a
mixture of originals and covers–blues, blues rock and
roots rock,” he said. “We
have been compared to legends like Eric Clapton, Jonny
Lang, and Stevie Ray
Vaughan. And that is pretty
good company to keep.”
Buck 69 has been racking
up awards and recognitions
for their original music since
2007. Recognitions include a
2008 Grammy nomination
for their first album “When
She Whispers Your Name.”
Music critics are raving
about their newest CD “No
Medicine Like the Blues”
which was released November 2013.
Toledo area blues fans
have voted Buck 69 “Best
Blues Band” numerous times,
as well as the unique award
for “Most Underrated Band
in Toledo.”
The Texas Roots Music
Association awarded the
band “Entertainer of the
Year.”
The band’s fan base continues to grow nationally and
internationally.
Tom and Alex Clawson and band Buck 69 will perform at the Music in the Market series tomorrow, July 17, 7 p.m., at Commodore Schoolyard.
“The new CD is doing
well on the Blues Rock charts
and getting a lot of airplay on
the internet radio stations,”
added Mr. Clawson. “Sales
have been really good overseas in Russia, Germany, Europe, Canada, and Italy. We
are waiting to see if it is in the
Grammy finals like the first
CD.”
Buck 69 band members
also include John (Sevilla)
Almguer, Adam Rise, Steven
Phillips, BJ Love, Bobbee
Clawson and Chantel Dunlap.

Eddie George to speak at Parker’s Purpose event
There are 50 tickets still
available for a dinner and
auction fund-raiser this Friday, July 18, featuring
Eddie George, former Ohio
State Heisman Trophy winner, College Football Hall
of Fame member and NFL
Rookie of the Year.
The benefit is annually
organized by Rossford
High School football coach
Todd Drusback.
Proceeds will go to
Parker’s Purpose, a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization
dedicated to helping Toledo
area parents in immediate
financial crisis with ill or
disabled children.
Cleveland Browns legends Earnest Byner and
Kevin Mack will be in the
area for autograph signing
and also will attend the
fund-raiser.
Coach
Drusback
founded Parker’s Purpose
in May 2008 while coaching at Fremont St. Joseph’s
High School.
He was inspired by
Parker Inks, who is now a
ninth grader with congenital muscular dystrophy and
Eddie George
served as a ballboy and pregame motivational speaker
for the team.
Parker’s motto is “Don’t
let what you can’t do interfere with what you can do.”
Since 2008, Parker’s
Purpose has helped hundreds of families in northwest Ohio with donations
totaling $125,000.
Mr.
George,
guest
speaker for the dinner, was
drafted to the NFL in the
first round by the Houston
Oilers/Tennessee Titans,
and he holds virtually every
franchise rushing record.
He led the AFC Champion Titans to Super Bowl
XXXIV in 2000.
During the past decade,
he has quietly focused his
efforts on businesses and
initiatives to improve the
quality of life for others.
His company, Healthy
People, concentrates on
creating solutions for transforming lives through
mind, body and spirit,
whether it is developing a
fitness challenge for NFL
moms, helping children to
get fit or sharing fitness tips
on the Dr. Oz TV show.
Mr. George studied
landscape architecture at
OSU and founded Edge in
2004, a landscape architecture firm with offices in
Ohio and Tennessee. The
companies works to bring
Healthy Places to life by
developing
sustainable
communities.
He earned an MBA from
the Kellogg School of
Management at Northwestern University in Chicago.
Mr. George also has had
an interest in entertainment,
and is producing projects
that combine his knowledge of the sports world
with his appreciation for
good storytelling.
He established a theater
group in Nashville and is
founding an entertainment
production company in Los
Angeles.
He is married to Tamara
“Taj” Johnson-George and
the father of two sons, Eriq
and Jaire.
The auction begins at 5
p.m., and dinner at 6 p.m.
Tickets are $65, or a table
of eight for $450.
The event at Ole Zim’s
Wagon Shed in Gibsonburg
includes a buffet dinner,
auction, prize ball draws
and grand auction.
For tickets or more information, contact Coach
Drusback at 419-334-7275,

Way Youth Services Librarian Journal readers are everywhere
Martha Johns to retire July 31
Way Library Youth
Services Librarian
Martha Johns.
Longtime Way Library
staff member, Martha
Johns, better known as
Miss Martha, will be retiring after 17 years at the library, nine of those in the
role of Youth Services Librarian.
Retiring will be bittersweet for Miss Martha. She
will miss the connections
she made through all of her
library programs, including
Mother Goose story time
for babies, Preschool Story
time, and Homeschooling.
Miss Martha was instrumental in establishing the
library’s home school programs, which have grown
and are a great success.
“I take great pride in initiating the homeschooling
program and I will miss
spending time with them,”
she said. “Working with
homeschoolers is one of
the highlights of my career.”
Many children’s first library experience has come
from
Miss
Martha’s
Mother Goose story time.
Newborns to babies 18
months old enjoy songs,
rhymes, and stories with
Miss Martha in Mother
Goose, which always ends
with hundreds of bubbles
in the air. Martha jokes that
the word “bubbles” is her
contribution to the babies’
vocabulary.
Preschool Story time
also was a favorite, where
she shared some of her favorite stories and songs
with children.
“Working with children
is an absolute joy,” she
said. “Any time I spend
with them brightens my
day.”
Once Miss Martha retires, she will be moving to
southern Michigan to enjoy
a cottage on a lake. As an
avid birdwatcher for many
years, Miss Martha will be
taking a birding trip to Australia, where she hopes to
see more than 400 new
birds.
On Thursday, July 31,
Miss Martha’s last day,
there will be an open house
at the library from 2 to 4
p.m. All are invited to stop
by to wish her farewell and
enjoy light refreshments.
From there to here, from here to there, Journal readers are
everywhere.
The staff invites readers to submit photos of themselves or
others reading the paper where ever they may travel, whether
it is Texas or Tahiti.
Above Karl Edinger reads the Perrysburg Messenger Journal on Kamala Beach in Phuket, Thailand.
Readers and advertisers are encouraged to submit photos
of themselves or relatives reading the paper. Try to include a
familiar background. For example, the Batu Caves make an
interesting backdrop for a reader in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Photos may be submitted by e-mail to newsforall@per
rysburg.com or by mail to The Messenger Journal, 117 East
Second Street, Perrysburg, Ohio 43551. If photos are sent by
mail and need to be returned, please include a self-addressed,
stamped envelope.
Please note the name of the person(s) in the photo and
their hometown/business as well as any other details you may
want to add about the trip.

Paper Gallery.
For centuries, humankind
has enjoyed a wealth of leisure
diversions. Drawing on works
from local and Toledo Museum of Art collections, Fun
and Games shows a variety of
those activities–games, sports,
racing, theater, dancing and
gossip–depicted by artists
throughout the years. The exhibition includes paintings, ceramics and works of art on
paper by such artists as Honoré Daumier, James A. M.
Whistler, George Wesley Bellows, Henri de ToulouseLautrec, Lucas Cranach,
Winslow Homer, Albrecht
Dürer, Marc Chagall and
Rembrandt van Rijn.

Years of Civil Rights, through

1964. In honor of those who
fought for the rights of all citizens to be treated fairly and
equally, this exhibition features works of art examining
slavery, segregation and the
civil rights movement in the
United States.
It includes more than 35
works from the TMA collection by Elizabeth Catlett,
David Levinthal, Gordon
Parks, Aminah Robinson, W.
Eugene Smith, Ernest C. Withers and others who have illuminated and challenged
prejudice and bigotry through
their prints, photographs and
FREE ESTIMATE
books.

Panel Discussion: “Gaming for a Living: The Life of
a Pro-Gamer” July 18, at 7
p.m., in the Little Theater.
Video games are a $26 billion
business.
The average male gamer is
32 years old and the average
female gamer is 42, hardly the
stereotype of a teenager in his
or her parents’ basement.
Many gamers make a living
playing video games and producing video game events.

Toledo Museum of Art lists program highlights, upcoming events
The Toledo Museum of Art
announces the following program highlights for July. Admission is free.
Exhibition Opening
The Great War: Art on
the Front Line, July 25
through October 19, in Gallery
18. Though World War I was
eclipsed by World War II, its
effects were severe: 16-million
deaths, 20-million wounded,
the end of four empires and the
redrawing of European borders. Marking the 100th anniversary of the start of World
War I, The Great War: Art on
the Front Line features artists’
reactions to the unprecedented
carnage and its lasting impact
through painting, sculpture
and works on paper. Many
artists, including Max Beckmann, Otto Dix and Käthe
Kollwitz, had personal experiences that they expressed in
their work.
With 40 works on view the
exhibition is comprised from
the TMA collection.
Continuing Exhibitions
The Art of Video Games,
through September 8, in the
Canaday Gallery. Striking visual effects and the creative
use of new technology in
games take center stage in this
interactive traveling exhibition, one of the first to examine
video games as an art form.
“Let’s just say that
comfort is our thing.”

PETS OF THE WEEK
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!
Morencia is your classic fiery
redhead. She is sweet, but feisty
and definitely a staff favorite.
She usually spends her days
lounging on the cat trees in the
cat room and would make a laid
back companion for somebody
who enjoys more independent
felines. Does Morencia sound like a match for you? Come meet
her at the shelter 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
to learn more about these great pets. All of our adoptable animals
can be viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.

Mandatory meeting for junior high athletes, parents
Go Owens!
FALL CLASSES BEGIN AUGUST 18.
All Perrysburg Junior High
School students planning to
participate in fall sports must
attend a mandatory meeting on
Wednesday, July 30, at 4 p.m.,
in the PJHS auditorium.
This is an OHSAA mandatory meeting, and a parent or
guardian also must attend with
the athlete.
Fall sports include cheerleading, cross country, football
and volleyball.
Students and parents
should arrive at least 10 minutes early to sign in at the appropriate sport’s table and pick
up information. The meeting
should last approximately one
hour. All tryouts/practices for
fall sports will start on Monday, August 4. Times will vary
according to each sport, but
will generally be in the mornings until school starts. Specific times, along with other
pertinent information for each
sport, will be discussed at the
meeting.
All students who tryout for,
or participate in a sport, must
have an Emergency Medical
Authorization Form and a new
physical form for the 2014-15
school year properly filled out
and turned in before they may
participate in a practice. An
OHSAA concussion form also
must be turned in before practice. Physicals dated before
May 20, 2014, will not be accepted for legal reasons. The
EMA form, concussion form
and the six-page physical form
can be accessed on the junior
high athletic web page at:
h t t p : / / w w w. p e r r y s b u r g
schools.net/2012-04-04-1653-36. While volleyball and
cheerleading have always had
tryouts and cuts in the past, it
may be necessary for football
to also hold tryouts, and cut,
depending on how many athletes show up in August for
each grade.
The tryouts for these sports
that may cut, will start on August 4, and last a couple of
days. Students will not be able
to participate in sports that
hold tryouts and cut, if they
show up on a date after tryouts
are over.
For more information, contact the sport’s head coach via
e-mail, which can be found on
the junior high athletic web
page listed above.
