PERRYSBURG YOUR HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER 1853 1935 We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. ~ The Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776 Photo by Norman Fairman Brought to you by the sponsors listed on page 3 Third grade reading test results released by ODE By Beth Church All but four Perrysburg students have passed the test to meet the state’s third grade reading guarantee. The Ohio Department of Education (ODE) recently released results of this year’s Ohio Achievement Assessment. Except for those with special circumstances, students had to score a minimum of 392 on the state reading test to move on to the fourth grade. The ODE reported that of the 363 Perrysburg School District thirdgraders, 344 or 94.8 percent scored at least the passing rate of 392. However, Kadee Anstadt, executive director of teaching and learning for the district, said the passage rate was actually a little higher. Some of the 19 students the ODE shows as not meeting the standard are likely exempt from testing. Some students who are classified as special needs and have an individualized education plan (IEP) may be exempt from taking the reading test. The state’s new third grade guarantee requires that in kindergarten through grade three, schools have to evaluate all children to determine if they are reading as well as they should be. Third-graders had the opportunity to take the test Students eat lunch during the summer academic camp.

The students will be able to take the test again during the week of July 9, she added. “We are also administering an alternative assessment that week,” Ms. Anstadt explained. “ODE identified three different alternative assessments that will also give students a chance to move to fourth grade in the fall.” Students also can participate in the district’s summer academic camp. “All students receiving reading intervention are eligible for summer reading support at either the Frank Elementary location or our eight-week Little Jacket Academic Camp at Perrysburg Heights,” she said. The Frank program operates two hours daily for four days each week through July 10. The Little Jacket Academic Camp is two hours each day of reading, and the balance of the day is a summer camp that includes weekly visits from the Challenger Learning Center plus field trips.

At the June 23 board of education meeting, Superintendent Ron Matter said, “I’m very excited to announce that we received a Straight A grant.” The superintendent said the funds will be used toward equipment, renovations and electrical upgrades to the materials handling lab next to the advanced manufacturing program, training for staff and administration, instructional materials and the annual STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) camp. Items the funds may be used to purchase include robots for machining/welding; mechatronics; industrial maintenance equipment; 3D printers and software, and robotics project kits, he added. Penta applied for the grant along with eight other career centers that are members of RAMTEC (Robotics & Advanced Manufacturing Technology Education Collaborative) Statewide Advanced Manufacturing STEM/Career Technical Education Consortium. The consortium, led by Tri-Rivers Career Center, received $14.99 million through Ohio’s Straight A fund. The Tri-Rivers/ RAMTEC application was one of 37 grants recommended by the Straight A fund governing board for fiscal year 2015, according to the Ohio Department of Education. “Ohio’s Straight A Fund has given a big boost to the most innovative of Ohio’s local school districts who recognize that it takes bold, new approaches to equip our students for a more demanding workplace,” said Richard Ross, superintendent of public instruction. “Districts’ collaborations on these creative projects tells me we are becoming more cost-efficient.” The $250 million Straight A fund became part of the state budget last summer. More than 150 entities received $100 million last year, with $150 million earmarked for new grants this year. The fund is part of a $1.6 billion increase in state funding for education over the two-year budget cycle. Personnel for 2014-15 The board hired and realigned personnel for 2014-15: •Ryan Lee, supervisor of academics resigned his posi- tion, effective June 30, to begin his new post as assistant director of the career center at a salary of $92,585. •Employment contracts also were awarded to other certificated personnel.

Last week, Governor John Kasich signed into law legislation proposed by State Senator Randy Gardner to reform Ohio’s educator evaluation policies. Senator Gardner’s legislation was amended into House Bill 362, passing the Ohio Senate by a vote of 30-3 and in the House of Representatives by a vote of 94-1. Originally known as Senate Bill 229, the legislation provides more flexibility for school districts conducting teacher evaluations, saves schools and taxpayers an estimated $60 million each year, and helps school districts focus on teachers in their first four years or teachers who have failed to attain a designation of skilled or accomplished. The senator’s legislation generated wide bipartisan support in the House and Senate and was endorsed by the organization representing Ohio’s elected school board members. “This legislation says to Ohio educators, ‘Columbus is willing to listen to you,’” Senator Gardner said. “This bill helps make our education system less bureaucratic, saves tax dollars and helps improve results in the classroom.” Pictured above, Senator Randy Gardner, fourth from left, is joined by Perrysburg Schools Superintendent Tom Hosler, State Superintendent Richard Ross and other education leaders as Governor John Kasich, seated, signs House Bill 362 into law.

A student can still take fourth grade classes in all other subjects, if he or she is ready. Schools also can move students to the fourth grade in the middle of the year, if the student’s reading improves. The law does not provide parents or guardians the right to refuse retention in the third grade, according to the ODE. If a student is retained in third grade, there are two new intervention requirements, according to the ODE. Districts and community schools must make available and pay for intervention or tutoring services if the parents request them.

Perrysburg Police announce traffic plan for annual fireworks display The Perrysburg Police Division announces the traffic pattern for the July 3 fireworks display. In an effort to avoid emergency vehicles being caught in traffic, an emergency traffic lane will be maintained on Fort Meigs Road again this year. The northbound lane of Fort Meigs Road will be closed to all traffic except emergency vehicles between Eckel Junction Road and West Indiana Avenue. The closure will begin at 9 p.m. and will continue until sufficient traffic has left the area. Southbound traffic on Fort Meigs Road will be maintained throughout the event. The Maumee-Perrysburg Bridge will be closed at 8 p.m. and will re-open after the fireworks display is completed and the bridge has been cleaned. Motorists should plan to use alternate river crossings on I-475 and I-75. All westbound traffic on West Front Street will be forced to go south on State Route 25, and northbound traffic on State Route 25 will be forced to go east on West Front Street. The map at right shows the traffic pattern that will be used for the fireworks. The special traffic pattern will go into effect at 9 p.m., and will remain in effect until the officer in charge determines that traffic has returned to normal. The Police Division recommends that guests make arrangements to arrive prior to 9 p.m. and plan on leaving the area after 11 p.m., to avoid the congestion and confusion. The times of the alternate traffic flow patterns are subject to change, based on area observations during the event and the need to effectively provide city services to residents. ➧Continued from page 1 Bodie Bankey, Tammy Bankey, Susan Brown, Janet Burtch, Kyle Dornberg, Bill Drake, William Ferguson, Janet French, Joanne Goins, Sarah Gonia, Jill Harris, Cindy Jones, Bill Kopanaisz, Dawn Lyle, Rochelle Manley, Dorothy Parker, Mary Passino, Nancy Plath, Claudia Ruedisueli, Susan Schlagheter, Fred Schultz, Loretta Sellars, Carlis Stevens, Barbara Szydlowski, Barbara Ulrich and Joanne Wolniewicz. •Accepted the resignation of Bailey Dokurno, secretary, effective June 27, and approved the employment of Jean Humason-Adams, instructional aide, $14.26/hour. •Hired as substitute bus drivers at $13.82/hour Donald Artz, Robert DeShetler, Joseph Dietrich, John McClure, Roger Schultze, William Tucholski and Larry Youngs.

Physical activity, whether it is working out in the gym, or walking around your neighborhood, needs proper nutrition. When muscles are working they require fuel, and the best source is complex carbohydrates. Choose complex carbohydrates such as whole grains, starchy vegetables and beans and add some lean protein to nourish your muscles before you use them during a work out. Chicken, turkey, fish, beans or low-fat dairy products are great sources of protein. Don’t forget the importance of drinking plenty of water. A healthy lifestyle is all about having a plan for change, making small gradual changes and enjoying a healthier way of living. Ask yourself these questions: •Do I follow the guidance of the Food Guide Pyramid? •Do I get regular physical activity most days of the week? •Do I keep portions in balance with my physical activity? •Do I consume a variety of food choices? If you answered “yes,” you’re on the right path. If you need some work, start with a plan that includes small changes. Healthy eating helps you get the most out of life. A healthy lifestyle is the key to looking good, feeling great and being your best at work and at play. It all starts with a healthy eating plan. •Individual needs and preferences determine your personal food choices. Match your food choices to your lifestyle and individual requirements, choosing enough to achieve and maintain a healthy weight. •Actively pursue variety. Eating a wide variety of foods not only promotes optimal nutrition, it provides the pleasurable aspects of eating.

It was designed by teachers Kris Martz and Jeanna Heuring. The sessions included Paintbrush Rockets and Kids’ Chemistry for kindergarten and first grade students; Cryptography, Cute Critters and Creepy Crawly Things–This Camp Has Claws!, Grossology and Vive la France for students in grades 2-3, and From Trash to Physics—When Bananas and Eggs Collide, Puzzle Mania!, Not Your Average Myth, Adventure Stories with LEGOs for students in grades 4 to 5.

In a telephone interview last Friday, Deputy Chief Mike Gilmore said Detective Sergeant James Gross was demoted and he, along with Detective Scott Moskowitz, were assigned to road patrol for conduct unbecoming a township officer.

The deputy chief emphasized that the incidents “were completely isolated, independent issues that came down in a week or two. We got a run of several disciplinary actions at the same time.” He believes the department acted quickly and appropriately, responding to each issue. When asked if the hiring of Mike Dier as a consultant 4198742877 for the detective bureau was related to any of the officers’ $ actions, Deputy Chief Gilmore said it was not. “The consultant was hired as a special investigator toN help with a cold case,” he added.

Fireworks Safety Never relight a “dud” firework. Wait 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket of water. Open Letter To City of Perrysburg officals and parents of children regarding bicycle safety: I was driving in the 100 block of Edgewood Drive (my former apartment) and was going the 25 mph speed limit, and always looking out for kids. When suddenly a child on a bike darted in front of me (he was crossing from a house to the townhouse across the street) and fell off his bike in the street in front of my car. Thankfully there was a car length in front of me, as I slammed on my brakes. There was no injury, or worse yet a fatality. He was not wearing a helmet. On Friday, May 23, my friend was driving into the post office driveway. She was completely in the driveway and a 12-year-old boy on a bike, again with no helmet, slammed into the passenger side of her car. (not the front of the car). This shows she was in the driveway first. The officer would not let her out of the car to look at her own car. The paint marks on the rearview mirror were from where my friend and I were testing maroon paint. The mirror was not damaged at all. Perhaps he was riding too fast? Late for school? I’m not saying what he did do, or didn’t do, but we were taught as children when you come to a driveway of a business or at an intersection to stop. Get off the bike. Look both ways. Maybe this needs to be taught again. A life may be saved. My friend was cited. She wanted to plead not guilty, but could not afford a lawyer, and marked against her insurance. I believe the child was in the wrong as well, by not stopping, getting off the bike, and looking both ways before crossing the driveway of the post office. This country does not provide enough headway without money. Patricia Fruchey Wood County Humane Society sponsors cat adoption special The Wood County Humane Society (WCHS) is offering a “pick-your-price” adoption event for all cats and kittens to help alleviate shelter overcrowding. In May, the WCHS took in 55 cats and kittens, nearly double the usual number of intake requests that the shelter receives on a monthly 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 in heat. Those two factors combined lead to a dramatic increase in the number of kit- tens 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 shelter, which is located at 801 Van Camp Road, Bowling Green, are Wednesday and Thursday from 12 to 7 p.m. and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 12 to 4 p.m. All adoptions include the spay or neuter of the cat, distemper and rabies vaccines, FIV/FeLV test, microchip, and free physical examination at local participating veterinarians. In order to receive the special “pick-your-price” adoption fee, adoptions must be completed same day. Adoption hours at the shelter, which is located at 801 Van Camp Road, Bowling Green, are Wednesday and Thursday, from noon to 7 p.m. and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, from noon to 4 p.m. All adoptions include the spay or neuter of the cat, distemper and rabies vaccines, FIV/FeLV test, microchip, and free physical examination at local participating veterinarians. In order to receive the special fee, adoptions must be completed same day. Twp. BZA approves FedEx zoning requests load north, 14,976 square feet; local unload south, 11,232 square feet; vehicle maintenance building, 4,355 square feet and gateway building, 826 square feet. FedEx is purchasing approximately 10 more acres at 3rd and J streets. The parcels will be used for additional parking spaces, accommodating 107 cars, 67 tractors and 69 space trailers. The property will allow FedEx to straighten the access drive for better maneuverability by vehicles. The company expects to create 22 full-time and 145 part-time jobs at the expanded complex. In other business, the BZA approved a variance request submitted by Janine Avila of Gleneagles Road. Ms. Avila sought a variance to construct a 24-by 12foot covered deck that will replace an existing 24- by 8foot deck. The proposed deck encroaches 29 feet into the 35 foot required rear yard setback, necessitating the variance. –Jane Maiolo Two FedEx zoning requests received approval from the Perrysburg Township board of zoning appeals at the June 17 meeting. The conditional use and variance requests were granted one week after the township zoning commission approved the company’s site plan. FedEx officials sought a conditional use application for alterations to three detention ponds and a variance for a reduction in normal landscaping requirements. The conditional use permit will allow FedEx to fill in a portion of a pond, allowing for the access road to be straightened. Located in Ampoint Industrial Park near the corner of Glenwood Road and 3rd Street, the FedEx ground hub is a 584,000-square-feet plant. Business growth is prompting the company to expand the shipping hub by 92,438 square feet.

The route took the cyclists from the high school along the scenic back roads to Port Clinton. Riders had the option of four distances–35, 50, 75 or 100 miles. The two-day riders spent the night in Port Clinton and cycled back to PHS on Sunday. The one-day, 35-mile riders cycled to Pemberville and were transported back to the high school. Other distance one-day cyclists finished at Port Clinton High School. The Bike to the Bay ride celebrated its 25th anniversary with more than 900 cyclists devoted to helping people who are living with multiple sclerosis, a chronic and unpredictable disease of the central nervous system. “Bike to the Bay-Bike MS is a physical challenge for cyclists of every level, but it’s so much more than just a ride. The camaraderie, passion and memories that come from sharing this experience with your team will stay with you for a lifetime. It’s more than a ride, it’s Bike MS,” said Janet Kramer, chapter president of the National MS Society’s Ohio Buckeye Chapter. “All the funds raised will be used to provide for local programs, services and research efforts to support people living with multiple sclerosis.” The goal for Bike to the Bay was $445,962. Each rider was responsible for raising a minimum of $300. All riders were fully supported along the way with rest stops, bike mechanics, medical and safety volunteers, and support vehicles. The Perrysburg Exchange Club sponsored the Perrysburg Township rest stop on Sunday morning. Other Bike MS rides in Ohio include Bike MS Central Ohio Challenge which begins in New Albany and concludes in Utica.

About the Photographer Car show set Featured on the front page of this week’s Messenger Journal is a photograph titled “Early Morning July 3” by Perrysburg resident Norman Fairman. Originally from western Pennsylvania, Mr. Fairman came to Ohio for his university education in 1964. He holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology/Spanish and a master’s degree in urban curriculum and instruction. His post-master’s work was in instructional deign and educational technology. He completed his work at Kent State, Cleveland State and Lehigh University. Mr. Fairman met his wife while both were teachers in Cleveland. They have been married 43 years and have been blessed with three lovely children and now four beautiful grandchildren. The Fairmans have lived in Perrysburg for 33 years. Professionally, Mr. Fairman has worked as a public school teacher, university professor/administrator and businessman in the manufacturing and insurance industry for 32 years in Toledo. Currently, he is a partner and senior executive with the Knight Insurance Group. Mr. Fairman is an avid and passionate amateur photographer. After college he began to dabble in black and white photography and with a friend, assembled a small darkroom for developing and editing black and white photos. As his career evolved and his family grew, he left photography as a hobby for 36 years because of his responsibilities. He rediscovered photography as a passion and hobby in 2008. The digital age had arrived and was new for him. Since 2008 he has been fortunate to visit various interesting places including Ireland, Spain, Malta, Aruba and parts of the western United States. He and his family also lived in Mexico for two years where he worked at a university southeast of Mexico City. However, his favorite venue is Perrysburg and Wood County. His preference is for works of nature and landscapes. He also loves to work in the early morning when the light is most gentle and perfect for nature scenes. Plans for retirement from his career are just around the corner. The photographer is looking forward to spending more time with his passion of image-making to share the beauty of nature with others. It is assured that Perrysburg and Wood County will remain at the top of his list of preferred photo subjects.

It gives residents the opportunity to learn more about employees, services and township government. Perrysburg Township employs 64 full-time and 23 part-paid individuals who serve the more than 12,000 township residents. In the first article, the Perrysburg Township elected officials were featured. These elected officials fill their roles on a part-time basis and therefore an administrative staff is appointed to handle daily tasks and responsibilities. In the township form of government, the board of trustees can appoint a township administrator to act as administrative head under the direction of the trustees. Based on policies and priorities set by the Perrysburg Township Trustees, the administrator and office staff handle day-to-day oversight and monitoring of service delivery, planning and coordination of the budget, state and federal regulation compliance, and citizen requests. Perrysburg Township administrative staff includes the administrator, assistant to the administrator, and a payroll/financial specialist. Walter Celley currently serves as administrator.

The planning and zoning office is responsible for issuing zoning certificates, monitoring properties to ensure they are up to code, enforcing the zoning resolution and providing informational to the board of zoning appeals and zoning commission. A zoning certificate is required for construction, enlargement or renovation of structures including but not limited to a house, garage, shed, deck or pool. In 2013, more than 200 zoning certificates were issued–the majority for new single family dwellings. These certificates, along with site plan reviews, collected nearly $17,000 in revenue in 2013. In her two years at the township, Mrs. Hemminger has spearheaded efforts to streamline work processes. Through a new venture with eMerge, a Toledo area business, zoning certificates and supplemental documents will be scanned and digitally preserved. As this project progresses, Mrs. Hemminger will be able to access more than 50 years of files at her fingertips.

Both boards are comprised of township residents in the zoned area and are volunteer positions. The BZA is responsible for hearing and deciding appeals on zoning certificates, hearing and authorizing variances, and hearing and granting conditional use certificates. The zoning commission is responsible for establishing and amending the zoning resolution and reviewing and authorizing site plans. For questions about projects requiring a zoning certificate, a business interested in the township, or a general question about planning or zoning, contact Mrs. Hemminger at 419-872-8863.

Presenting the award to Mr. Bidwell, State Program Director Jeffrey Kiliany read the following nomination letter submitted by Perrysburg Council 7978. “Bob Bidwell is married to his best friend Pat and they have two sons and seven grandchildren. The couple are members of St. Rose Parish in Perrysburg and Mr. Bidwell is a member of Council 7978 in Perrysburg, and also a member of Monsignor Robert J. Yates Assembly 2800. He is the owner of Robert L. Bidwell LLC, a manufacturer’s rep organization in northwest Ohio. “Since converting to the Catholic faith in 1999, Mr. Bidwell has been very active in the St. Rose Parish. As Reverend Monsignor Marvin Borger stated, ‘Bob is a faithful Catholic man who actively serves his parish, the community and his council. He is morally upright and a model Knight.’ “Mr. Bidwell is a Eucharist minister and lector at St. Rose Parish. He is a leader and gets things done. Along with brother Knight Matt Gaffney and their spouses, he co-chaired the first successful Moonlight and Roses fund-raiser in April 2013, raising more than $60,000 for the parish and school. Bob Bidwell, left, was first named Toledo Diocese Knight of the Year and was then selected as the State of Ohio Diocese 2014 Knight of the Year at the annual Knights of Columbus Ohio State Council state convention in Columbus. Pictured with Mr. Bidwell is Knights of Columbus State Deputy Ken Girt. “The community of Perrysburg is no stranger to Bob. He has served as chair for the American Cancer Society Perrysburg Relay for Life. He is very active in fund-raising for the Exchange Club of Perrysburg to support the club’s mission–the prevention of child abuse. In 2013, he was a co-chair of a celebrity wait night raising more than $5,000 for the Cocoon Shelter of Wood County–a safe haven for women and children of spousal abuse. Mr. Bidwell also has served as a guardian for veterans on Honor Flight of Northwest Ohio to Washington, D.C. “The honoree is very involved at his council as well. He serves as chairman for the monthly pancake breakfast and the occasional spaghetti dinner. Money from the events has helped purchase a new ultrasound machine for the local pregnancy support center. He also has served as the council pick 3 raffle and the super cash bonanza raffle. “It is with the most honor and pleasure that the Ohio State Council Knights of Columbus name Robert L. Bidwell as the Knight of the Year for 2014 in the ‘We are the Light of Ohio’ state program. Congratulations and may God bless.” The Knights of Columbus was officially chartered as a fraternal benefit society in 1882. The work of the Knights is based on four core principles–charity, unity, fraternity and patriotism. The Gaffney family, left, was recognized by the Toledo Diocese as the Family of the Year, and Monsignor Marvin Borger of St. Rose Parish was honored as the Toledo Diocese Chaplain of the Year. Gardens at Hospice centers pay tribute to veterans Hospice of Northwest Ohio recently completed planting special gardens at both its Perrysburg and Toledo Hospice Centers that pay tribute to veterans. In addition to plants and flowers, each red, white and blue-themed garden is marked with an engraved river rock and stone bench. The gardens offer an additional space where families and visitors can reflect on the life of their loved ones and, at the same time, honor their military service. The veterans’ gardens are just the latest addition to the list of recognition events Hospice of Northwest Ohio offers for veterans. As part of the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’s We Honor Vets initiative, patients are asked about their military service upon admission and a special notation is made in their record. “We have educated our staff about the importance military culture has on the life of a veteran, whether they have served during war time or peace time. Each era leaves a mark and shapes experiences forever,” shares Executive Director Judy Seibenick. “In addition to awareness of potential adaptations to care, we also recognize vet- ‘Despicable Me 2’ erans for their service through a special pinning ceremony. We Honor Vets allows us to tap into our volunteers who are veterans and work together to show appreciation to the men and women who have served our country.” The Perrysburg Center is located at 30000 East River Road, and the Toledo Center is located at 800 South Detroit Avenue.

For qualified buyers with credit score of 700 or higher. Purchase only transactions. Member FDIC More than 37 million Americans suffer with chronic rhinosinusi)s, a persistent inflam ma)on of the nasal cavity and paranasal si nuses that causes a wide range of unpleasant physical symptoms, such as headache, facial pressure and pain, sinus drainage, nasal conges)on, reduced sense of smell and taste, tooth pain, bad breath, and fa)gue. These recurrent symptoms can significantly interfere with daily ac)vi )es and diminish one’s quality of life. Dr. Oliver Jenkins and Dr. Christopher Perry of the Toledo Clinic ENT Sinus Center of Ex cellence have helped many chronic sinusi )s sufferers (including pediatric pa)ents) in Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan breathe easier through a revolu)onary, minimally invasive endoscopic procedure called Balloon Sinuplasty. During this pro cedure, a small, flexible balloon catheter is placed through the nostril and into the blocked sinus. The balloon is then inflated to gently restructure and open the sinus passageway, restoring normal sinus drainage and func)on. The procedure is similar in many ways to the balloon angioplasty technique used to open narrowed coronary arteries. “We’ve done literally thousands of these procedures and have found that Balloon Sinuplasty is just as effec)ve at relieving symptoms of nasal conges)on, sinus pressure and drainage, and headaches, and its longterm success rate is equal to or be*er than that of tradi)onal surgery. In fact, in approximately 98 percent of pa)ents undergoing the procedure, the sinuses remain open indefinitely,” notes Dr. Perry. He goes on to explain that, “Conven)onal endoscopic sinus surgery involves the removal of bone and )ssue to open up blocked sinus passageways, which can lead to postopera)ve pain and scarring and oen requires uncomfortable nasal packing to control bleeding. In stark contrast, Balloon Sinuplasty simply restructures the bone and )ssue around the natural opening into the sinus, which translates into less pain, less bleeding, faster recovery )me, and no need for painful nasal packing.” The Balloon Sinuplasty procedure un)l now has been performed in the opera)ng room se+ng with the pa)ent asleep under general anesthesia. But Drs. Jenkins and Perry now offer a pioneered form of the procedure called InOffice Balloon Sinuplasty, which they perform right in the office in about one hour using only a topical and local anesthe)c. Not only is InOffice Balloon Sinuplasty more convenient and costeffec)ve than surgery at the hospital, but it’s also just as safe and effec)ve as surgery per formed in the opera)ng room. What’s more, pa)ents do not have to worry about the risk of side effects or complica)ons associated with general anesthesia. Dr. Jenkins notes, “The experience is much like going to see the den)st to fill a cavity.” “The advent of InOffice Balloon Sinuplasty makes it possible for us to help chronic sinusi)s sufferers who don’t want general anesthesia or who are unable to tolerate it. In essence, more pa)ents who would benefit from this procedure now have access to it. Our Balloon Sinuplasty pa)ents are also pleased to learn that there is virtually no down )me following the inoffice procedure. In fact, pa)ents are able to return to work the next day,” says Dr. Perry. Balloon Sinuplasty isn’t appropriate for every pa)ent, and tradi)onal endoscopic sinus surgery is s)ll an important tool u)lized by ENT surgeons. But more than 90% of pa)ents who undergo this revolu )onary procedure find longawaited relief from their debilita)ng sinusi)s symptoms—and that’s some thing worth celebra)ng. The Toledo Clinic ENT Sinus Center of Excellence is located at 5800 Park Center Court, Suite C in Toledo. The clinic also has two Wood County loca&ons—1103 Village Square Suite 101, Perrysburg and 1069 Klotz Road, Suite A, Bowling Green.

Humane Society seeks cage/kennel sponsors The Wood County Humane Society (WCHS) is launching a new fund-raising campaign that will enable the organization to offer a safe haven to even more of the homeless, neglected, and abused animals of Wood County.

With a donation of $500 or more, sponsors will be honored with a personalized, engraved nameplate affixed to one of the purchased cages or kennels, as well as a handcrafted dog or cat Carruth sculpture. Sponsors have three options for the engraved nameplate, including: 1) indicating their sponsorship of the cage/kennel; 2) honoring a friend, relative or pet; or 3) memorializing a friend, relative or pet. This campaign was initiated in part to combat the mass influx of cats and kittens during the spring season. Spring is known as “kitten season” because warmer weather means more strays roaming freely and more cats in heat. Place your ad in the Journal. Reach 14,000 homes and businesses weekly. Call 419-874-4491 Hey Perrysburg! We Are Your Ford Connection! 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. The Guardian Angel Program is being spearheaded by WCHS Board Member Susan Frost, who also is the chair of the organization’s Membership Committee. Ms. Frost says that cage sponsorship allows the shelter to provide for the day-today needs of animals while they are in the care of the shelter. But such sponsorship is even more important for the animals. “For a homeless dog or cat, your sponsorship will give the animals the safest, warmest place they may have known,” said Ms. Frost. “For them, a cage or kennel is security; it’s clean water, food, snacks, a toy to play with and a blanket to curl up in.” Individuals who are interested in participating in the Guardian Angel Program can send their donations of $500 or more directly to the shelter at 801 Van Camp Road, Bowling Green.

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 Ending July 6–In Fine Feather: Birds, Art and Science, in Gallery 18.

She was surrendered to the WCHS in May of this year, along with her four puppies. The puppies were only 2 weeks-old at the time, but now they are big enough to find homes of their own, which means it is now time for Fleur to find her forever home as well. Fleur is playful, but well-mannered. She is energetic, but also enjoys rest and relaxation time. Is Fleur the perfect addition to your family? Come meet her and find out today! Sylvia is a very sweet-tempered adult female feline who was surrendered to the WCHS in May of this year when her family could no longer afford to keep her. Sylvia is about 2 years-old, is declawed, and is a very calm, relaxed gal. In fact, she will hang just like a ragdoll when you pick her up. Sylvia loves being petted and cuddled more than just about anything and she cannot wait to find a family of her own. Are you Sylvia’s forever family?
