PERRYSBURG 

‘Sharing traditions and history of the greater Toledo area’ 

WGTE ‘Toledo Stories’ awarded Historic Perrysburg’s 2012 Bentley Award 

By Deb Buker 

A story is defined as an 

account of incidents or 

events–it could be historical 

or legend, a news article or 

fiction. “Toledo Stories” 

tells the region’s history–the 

cornerstones of heritage, the 

legacy of glass, the impact 

of Lake Erie, the creation of 

the metroparks and Fort 

Meigs. Toledo Stories, presented 

by WGTE public 

media, is a series of documentaries 

to protect and preserve 

the history of the 

greater Toledo area. 

Last week, Toledo Stories 

was honored with the 

2012 Bentley Award from 

Historic Perrysburg, Inc. at 

its annual dinner. 

Prior to announcing the 

award recipient, Historic 

Perrysburg member and first 

president of the organization, 

Joe Klein remembered 

Hilda Bentley, for whom the 

award is named. 

“This award is named 

after Mrs. Anderton Bentley. 

Hilda Bentley had a lifelong 

commitment to historic 

preservation in Perrysburg, 

the area, Ohio and the 

nation,” he told the more 

than 80 members and guests 

attending the dinner at the 

Carranor Hunt and Polo 

Club. “Her influence and 

interest could be found in 

the Old West End of Toledo 

or writing grants. She was a 

moving force behind the 

original Perrysburg urban 

design study and she served 

as a board member of the 

Ohio Historic Society and 

the National Trust for Historic 

Preservation. One 

writer described Hilda as 

‘the mother of preservation 

in Toledo’ and rightly so. 

“It was my privilege to 

know her. It is very fitting 

that this award honors her 

and sustains the preservation 

tradition in our area.” 

The 2012 Bentley award 

honoree demonstrates the 

pride that the greater Toledo 

area can and should present 

in sharing its traditions and 

history, added Mr. Klein. 

“This effort has given us 

a living portfolio of those 

who came before us, regardless 

of ethnicity or faith. 

From this source we can 

learn about institutions or 

buildings whose footprints 

might be lost but the heart 

still retains that warm fuzzy 

feeling that we had as a 

child when we first visited,” 

he said. “The results of 

episodes that have been produced 

include local places 

of worship and the fate of 

the Maumee River. You can 

learn about radio or the symphony, 

our own Owens-Illinois 

or Jeep, Paint by Number 

or Tiedtke’s, Millie Benson 

or Fort Meigs. 

“Publicly supported 

financially, this organization 

has survived because of the 

quality of their documen- 

taries and an obvious confidence 

in their ability to preserve 

our heritage for the 

generations of the future. It 

is my privilege to announce 

the 2012 Bentley Award 

winner–Toledo Stories, presented 

by WGTE.” 

Accepting the award, 

executive producer and Perrysburg 

resident Darren 

LaShelle told Historic Perrysburg 

members that he 

created Toledo Stories 10 

years ago for one reason–“to 

have a place where people in 

northwest Ohio could go 

every week and learn about 

the history of the place they 

call home.” 

The stories broadcast on 

WGTE TV 30 PBS every 

Thursday at 8 p.m. 

“Over the past 10 years, 

more than a quarter of a million 

people have tuned in to 

learn something about their 

history whether it is the Irish 

or German immigration or 

whether it is the Polish community. 

Or to view stories of 

great places–Fort Meigs, the 

museum, the zoo, or to hear 

some great stories on the 

Battle of Fallen Timbers, the 

War of 1812 or the history 

of the glass industry, ” said 

Mr. LaShelle. 

The executive producer 

said because this series on 

television may be the only 

place some people learn 

about their local history, 

WGTE takes this responsibility 

very seriously. 

“And your award to recognize 

the series tonight 

means a great deal to me as 

a resident of historic Perrysburg 

but also to our staff at 

WGTE for the work that 

they do. But more importantly, 

it is for the viewers,” 

he said. “This validates their 

trust in us for the history 

that we bring them. Thank 

you very much.” 

The Bentley Award was 

presented for the first time 

last year to Welch Publishing 

Company. 

Bentley Award Criteria 

The purpose of the Bentley 

Award program is to

Two Perrysburg High 

School seniors were among

10 area school districts who 

recognized their teachers at 

the 23rd annual “I Make a 

Difference” awards. 

Sponsored by the Educational 

Service Center of 

Lake Erie West, the ceremony 

was held at the Toledo 

Club. District representatives 

and parents were on hand as 

the students paid special tributes 

their teachers. 

Valedictorian Tess Gao 

recognized Richard Brundrett. 

“He is incredibly 

knowledgeable and very 

academically demanding,” 

she said of her chemistry 

teacher.“He taught me to 

think outside the box, and I 

really enjoyed my time in 

Mr. Brundrett’s class.”

Cavins as the teacher who 

made a difference to him.

he said of his AP Spanish 

teacher. 

“She was always there to 

listen and to give advice. She 

was more than a teacher,” he 

said, adding that Ms Cavins 

was a mentor to him. 

The son of Bill and Vicki 

O’Connor, Matthew plans to 

study chemistry at Ohio 

State University this fall. 

Superintendent Tom 

Hosler commended the students 

and teachers and 

emphasized the importance 

of respecting all fields of

Trustees to send firefighter for paramedic training 

at township cost; discuss 4-mill levy for Fire/EMS 

By Jane Maiolo 

The Perrysburg Township 

board of trustees 

reached a decision on 

whether to pay EMT training 

costs for a Perrysburg 

Township firefighter. 

At the May 2 meeting, 

the trustees agreed to send 

firefighter Joe Hoffman to 

paramedic school at the 

Wood County Hospital 

through Four County Career 

Center’s training program. 

The trustees will pay $8,600 

for Mr. Hoffman’s training. 

Trustee Gary Britten said 

he was concerned about 

approving a second firefighter 

to attend the training 

in two months, but after 

speaking with Fire Chief

Tom Brice, he decided to 

support the training. 

“Tom is monitoring this 

very well, so I’ll support 

this.” He added, “We ought 

to look at this before moving 

forward,” noting that the 

trustees may want to restrict 

the number of firefighters 

per year. 

Chief Brice said Mr. 

Hoffman “will be the last 

one for this year for certain.” 

Firefighter Mike Green 

was approved to attend the 

training class about two 

months ago. “Both have 

done their fair share for the 

township,” said the fire 

chief.

Terms of the agreement 

call for the firefighters to 

remain with the township 

for six years following successful 

completion of the 

program and to respond to 

25 percent of calls. 

If the firefighters do not 

meet any of the criteria, 

they will be required to 

reimburse the township.

the placement of a 4-mill

reviewed the financial status 

of the department and its 

anticipated costs, believes a 

4-mill levy will meet the 

department’s needs. 

Mr. Britten asked the fire 

chief if he has a preference 

on the type of levy to place 

on the ballot. 

Chief Brice suggested a 

continuing levy. “It’s less 

expensive with signs and 

advertising every so many 

years. That’s just my feeling,” 

he said. 

Trustee Bob Mack said 

an important aspect of the 

levy’s success will be 

explaining to voters it covers 

costs for both fire and 

EMS.

Five houses to be featured 

PAHM to host annual house tour June 9 

Perrysburg Area Historic Museum (PAHM) will host its annual house tour on Saturday, June 9, from 10 a.m. 

to 4 p.m. Tickets for the tour are $15 and can be purchased at any of the featured homes on the day of the tour. 

All proceeds will benefit renovation of the Spafford House, the future site of the Perrysburg Area Historic 

Museum on State Route 65. 

The homes on tour are owned by Dr. Peter and Polly White, 525 East Sixth Street; Bruce and Holly Samuelson, 

331 East Second Street; R. Seth and Marian Hudson, 302 East Second Street; Skip and Kelley Carter, 323 

West Second Street, and Robert Seyfang and Susan Del Vicchio, 424 East Front Street. 

The featured home above is the Samuelson home. It was constructed in 2009 after the former Evangelical 

Church, built in 1846, and its parsonage were demolished with the approval of the City of Perrysburg Landmarks 

Committee. The only thing remaining on the property from the original site is a cedar tree. 

The house features a large kitchen, formal dining room, living room, den and first floor master bedroom. 

Four guest rooms, hobby room and play room occupy the second floor of the home. The design includes natural 

light with plenty of windows, 10 foot ceilings, hardwood floors, wide woodwork and moldings. In addition, 

there is a three-car garage which houses an office, and a built-in saltwater pool. 

For additional information on the tour, call Phyllis Morton, 419-872-0846.

➧Continued from page 1 

He added, “The general 

fund has been feeding 

EMS/fire for too long.” 

Trustee Craig LaHote 

agreed. “The job for us is to 

educate the people.” 

The department was 

originally set up to be independently 

funded, administrator 

John Hrosko reminded 

the trustees, but over time as 

expenses grew, it became 

necessary to take money 

from the general fund to 

cover operating costs. 

Mr. Mack added that 

contributing to the reduced 

funds for the department 

was a reduction in estate 

taxes and local government 

funding. 

“So at this point, a levy 

is needed to support the 

department,” he said. 

Chief Brice added that 

levy funds will “only be 

used to continue to provide 

services we have.”

In other business, the 

trustees:

Card of Thanks 

I want to thank a very nice couple behind me in the 

checkout line at Meijer on Route 20. 

I was buying a marked down package of ground beef. I 

was 40 cents short. The nice couple stepped forward to pay. 

It might not seem much to most, but to me it was a blessing. 

I could stretch that to get five meals. 

I came to Perrysburg to get out of a bad home situation, 

only bringing clothes and odds and ends that would fit in 

my car. I have found a part-time job and am still looking for 

full time. 

So thank you to a nice couple. 

A thankful resident

History lecture series continues 

at Fort Meigs on Thurs., May 17 

Anthony Yanik, historian 

and author, will present 

“William Hull and the Fall 

of Detroit” on Thursday, 

May 17, at 7:30 p.m., at the 

Fort Meigs visitor center in 

Perrysburg. 

The presentation is free 

and open to the public. 

Doors open at 7 p.m. 

The focus of the opening 

campaign of the War of 

1812 was Detroit, which the 

War Department considered 

to be one of the significant 

launching points for the invasion 

of Canada. Its surrender 

only two months 

after the declaration of war 

shocked the nation and led 

to the court martial of 

Brigadier General William 

Hull for which he was sentenced 

to death, the only 

commanding general ever 

to receive a death sentence 

in U. S. Military history. 

Gen. Hull has been vilified 

by most historians to 

the present day for his decision 

to surrender. A close 

examination of the transcript 

of the court martial, 

however, indicates that Hull 

was the victim of very questionable 

trial proceedings as 

well as biased contradictory 

testimony. 

Given the same advantages 

later accorded to 

William Henry Harrison in 

his campaign to recapture 

Detroit, especially the command 

of the waterways, it is 

conceivable that Hull would 

never have found it necessary 

to surrender. 

Anthony Yanik is a General 

Motors retiree with a 

master of arts degree from 

the University of Detroit. 

His professional background 

is in speech writing 

among other assignments 

for GMC. 

His book, “The Fall and 

Recapture of Detroit in the 

War of 1812,” resulted from 

his interest in defending 

William Hull, whom he 

feels has been unfairly 

judged as a coward by most 

historians for precipitating 

the surrender of Detroit at 

the outset of the war. 

Mr. Yanik’s previous 

book, “Maxwell Motor and 

the Making of Chrysler 

Corporation,” received the 

Michigan Historical Society’s 

prestigious State History 

Award for 2009. 

The program is sponsored 

by the Anderton Bentley 

Fund in memory of 

Christopher Perky, who 

served at Fort Meigs during 

the War of 1812.

Burnett receives Golden Excellence Award 

Barbara Burnett, a Frank Elementary School teacher, was selected to receive the Perrysburg 

School’s Golden Excellence Award for the month of April. She was recognized 

for this honor at the April 23 meeting of the Perrysburg Board of Education. She received 

a gift certificate for a local restaurant, donated by Hans Griffioen of the Griffioen Agency. 

The Golden Excellence Award recognizes school employees who go above and beyond 

the call of duty. Each month the district chooses an employee from co-worker nominations 

who best illustrates excellence on the job. Ms. Burnett was nominated by the 

Frank Elementary staff. 

Pictured, from left, are: Barry Van Hoozen, board president; Ms. Burnett, Hans Griffioen, 

and Brent Swartzmiller, Frank Elementary principal.

•BRUCE ROBERTS 

Bruce Roberts died Saturday, 

May 5, 2012. He was 

born January 19, 1927, to 

Gladys and Ralph Roberts in 

Rossford. After graduation 

from Rossford High School, 

he became a professional 

skater for a time, then served 

in the Armed Forces from 

1950 to 1956. During that time 

his design talents were put to 

use designing tank decals, 

logos for the U.S. Army. After 

his discharge from the Armed 

Forces, he began his career 

with Owens Illinois where he 

designed bottles and held several 

patents for his work. 

There he remained for 20 

years. 

His passion for antiques led 

him to his next endeavor. He 

made many trips to Westfield, 

New York, a popular haven for 

antique collectors. His visits 

there inspired him to begin his 

own antique business. He 

opened his shop, The Oliver 

House, in the carriage house of 

his family home in Rossford. 

This was later to become 

Bruce Roberts Interiors. His 

design business flourished for 

nearly 50 years, although the 

location of the business 

changed from time to time. 

Despite having no formal 

education, he became a full 

member of ASID and was 

qualified to not only do interiors, 

but do plumbing and electrical 

layouts as well as 

architectural drawings. His extensive 

client list included Inverness 

Country Club, 

Sylvania Country Club, 

Shawnee Country Club, Hospice 

of Northwest Ohio (Perrysburg), 

Jobst Institute, 

automobile dealerships, along 

with private clients. 

He enjoyed gardening, entertaining, 

cooking, history, 

antiques, spending time with 

friends, and his dogs. 

He and his late partner, 

Tom Peeples, restored an 

1820s home in Westfield, New 

York, known as The Mack 

House. 

Mr. Roberts was a member 

of ASID and Historic Perrysburg. 

As per his request, there 

will be no services. 

Memorial tributes can be 

made to any animal protective 

services organization or Hospice

Perrysburg area students honored for academic excellence at St. Francis de Sales 

A group of Owens Community 

College dental hygiene 

program faculty and recent 

graduates will have the opportunity 

to impact the lives of residents 

in Chimbote, Peru, 

through volunteer efforts as 

they participate in the academic 

institution’s first Peru Study 

and Service Abroad Program, 

May 15-25. 

“I’ve always wanted to go 

on a service learning trip,” said 

Owens dental hygiene graduate 

Rachael Kline. “I really enjoy 

helping people and this is an 

opportunity to help people who 

are truly in need.” 

For Owens recent graduate 

in dental hygiene Jaclyn Niese, 

the trip to Chimbote provides a 

unique chance to open her horizons 

to a different lifestyle. “I 

have never been to South 

America,” she said. “I am really 

looking forward to the chance 

to share my world and experiences 

with the Chimbote people 

and at the same time learn 

from them.” 

Coordinated by the college’s 

Office of International 

Programs and Services through 

a partnership with Community 

College for International Development 

and the organization’s 

Troika Study Abroad 

Programs, the Owens group arrived 

in Chimbote on Tuesday,

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer raises $90,000 

More than 3,500 walkers converge at the Town Center for annual ACS Strides walk 

The Town Center at Levis Commons was a 

sea of pink last Saturday as more than 3,500 

people united for the sixth annual American 

Cancer Society’s (ACS) Northwest Ohio 

“Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.” 

Cancer survivors, families, friends, neighbors 

and co-workers walked 3.1 miles to celebrate 

breast cancer survivors, educate people 

about how to reduce their breast cancer 

risk and raise funds for research and treat- 

ment. 

ACS is on the front lines of the fight 

against the disease. “Our organization has 

been a part of almost every major breakthrough 

in terms of breast cancer,” said Sara 

Foos, ACS regional income development 

director. “Mammography and Tamoxifin are 

prime examples of the progress that has 

been made in the fight against breast cancer, 

and the ACS has been a critical player in both 

of those advances. 

Saturday’s event raised more than 

$90,000. 

Below, left, Team Pink Crusaders from the 

Toledo area walked for a member who is a 12year 

cancer survivor and a newly diagnosed 

survivor currently under treatment. 

Below, right, Roger and Diana Wright 

walked for the Northwest Ohio Chevy Dealers 

team, also a sponsor of the event. 

Entertaining the walkers along the route were the Perrysburg Twirling Sophisticates, left, and Perrysburg Jazzercise members did a warmup 

exercise with the walkers. 

Team OI was one of 81 teams participating on Saturday. 

Memorial police service on Friday 

Amy Konz and Kathy Altman from Perrysburg First 

Federal Bank joined the walk. First Federal also was 

a Strides sponsor. 

The Wood County Fraternal Order of Police will host the annual Wood County Police Memorial Service this Friday, May 18, at noon. 

The public is invited to the service, which will be held on the steps of the Wood County Courthouse in Bowling Green. 

The ceremony pays tribute to law enforcement officers who over the years have lost their lives in the line of duty in Wood County. 

Among the 12 officers honored are the late Officer Kip Boulis, Marshal Frank Thornton and Sergeant Robert Schiffman, all of Perrysburg. 

A permanent memorial, engraved with the officers’ names, is located at the courthouse. 

The ceremony will feature a proclamation by the Wood County Commissioners, a reading of the names of the fallen officers and attendance by 

many of the area police chiefs. 

The community is invited 

to join the first ever Northwest 

Ohio Williams Syndrome 

Walk on this Saturday, 

May 19, at Grace United 

Methodist Church and 

Woodlands Park in Perrysburg. 

Registration begins at 9 

a.m. at the church with the 

walk starting at 10:15 a.m. 

at the church. After the 

walk, participants and families 

are encouraged to return 

to the church for lunch, 

activities and entertainment 

by the Perrysburg High 

School Jazz Singers, 

Women’s Select Show 

Choirs and Note to Self, a 

women’s quartet from Rossford. 

The local walk is being 

organized by Perrysburg resident 

Michelle Self, Greg 

and Sherry Grover and 

Deanna Durham. 

“We hope to be joined by 

many local families and 

friends to help spread the 

word about Williams Syndrome 

and raise critical 

funding for programs,” said 

Ms. Self. 

Recently featured on 

ABC’s “20/20” and 

MSNBC, Williams Syndrome 

is a genetic condition 

present at birth that can 

affect anyone. It is characterized 

by medical problems 

including cardiovascular disease, 

developmental delays 

and learning disabilities. 

These occur side by side 

with striking verbal abilities, 

highly social personalities 

and an affinity for music. 

It affects one in 10,000 

people worldwide–an estimated 

20,000 to 30,000 people 

in the United States, 

occurring equally in males 

and females in every culture.

More than a dozen participants 

pulled their cars up to the 

auto technology department, 

where they were greeted by an 

individual who walked them 

through the AARP CarFit program. 

CarFit personnel ran 

through a checklist of items to 

make sure drivers knew the 

proper usage of interior controls. 

Drivers learned that the 

steering wheel should be positioned 

so the driver’s nose 

comes at least three inches 

above the top of the column 

for proper line of sight.

Court Judge David E. 

Woessner, to advocate for 

children whose abuse, neglect 

or dependency cases are 

being heard in the Wood

main responsibility is to 

serve as the “eyes and ears 

of the court” by gathering 

information about the children’s 

lives, reporting this 

information to the court, and 

by speaking for the child in 

court. 

They also are required to 

monitor the needs of the 

child during the case. 

Karen Swartz was a 

coach and athletic director 

with Rossford Schools prior

PHS baseball team manages one victory in five games 

The Perrysburg High 

School baseball team played 

five games last week and 

managed one victory over 

Sylvania Southview on Friday. 

The Yellow Jackets lost to 

Springfield, Maumee and 

dropped a doubleheader 

against Rochester Adams. 

The team’s record after 26 

games is 13-11-2, and 6-5-1 

in the Northern Lakes 

League. 

The Player of the Week 

honor went to junior shortstop 

Mitch Renda. 

He hit .438 (seven for 16) 

with three doubles and seven 

RBIs. Defensively, he had 

three put outs and nine assists 

for the week. 

PHS vs. Springfield 

Last Wednesday, Perrysburg 

visited NLL rival 

Springfield and suffered a 7- 

6 loss in eight innings. 

The Jackets took an early 

lead in the second inning on 

a two run triple by AJ Stockwell. 

The Blue Devils answered 

with a single unearned 

run in their half of the 

second. 

PHS made it 4-1 in the 

third when Austin Lee doubled 

and came around to 

score on Hunter Smith’s single. 

Mark Delas advanced 

Smith to third on a base hit to 

centerfield and Smith later 

scored on a balk by the 

Springfield pitcher. 

The Perrysburg lead was 

brief as the Blue Devils 

scored three in the bottom of 

the third to tie the game. 

The Jackets added single 

runs in the sixth and seventh 

on base hits by Nick Munger 

and Delas for a two run lead 

going into the last half of the 

seventh inning. 

Stockwell relieved Delas, 

the starting pitcher, in the 

fourth inning and held 

Springfield scoreless until 

two runs crossed the plate on 

a Perrysburg error to tie the 

score in the bottom of the 

seventh. 

A two out Yellow Jacket 

error in the eighth allowed 

the Blue Devils to score the 

winning run for a 7-6 victory. 

Leading the Jacket 13 hit 

attack was senior Hunter 

Smith with a triple and two 

singles in four trips to the 

plate, one RBI and two runs 

scored. 

Lee had two hits, including 

a double and one run 

scored. Delas had two hits 

with one RBI and a run and 

mitch renda added two singles. 

The long triple by 

Stockwell, his first of the 

year, drove in two runs. 

PHS vs. Maumee 

Sectional Tournament 

PHS met Maumee in the 

sectional tournament finals 

last Thursday at BG’s Carter 

Park. 

This was the third time 

these two teams have played 

one another this season and 

for the third time the Panthers 

prevailed, this time by 

a score of 4-0. 

Maumee pitcher, junior 

Steve Duby was nearly perfect, 

throwing a no hitter at 

the Jackets while striking out 

10. 

Only two Yellow Jackets 

reached base–Austin Lee in 

the fourth when he was hit by 

a pitch, and Kyle Durham 

who walked to open the fifth 

but then became the front 

end of a 4-6-3 double play to 

end the inning. 

All four of the Panthers’ 

runs were scored in the second 

inning on five hits and 

one Perrysburg error. 

Nine of Maumee’s 10 hits 

were given up by starter Nick 

Munger in his five innings of 

work. Lee came on in relief 

in the sixth and allowed no 

runs on one hit. 

Maumee advances to the 

The Perrysburg Pirates 13U baseball team won the 

Woodville Spring Bat Bash Tournament during the weekend 

of April 27-29. They had a 2-1 record on pool play by 

beating the Woodmore Wildcats, 4-3, and the Maumee 

Starz, 10-2. They lost to the Lake Flyers, 7-0, but played 

them again in the championship game. Perrysburg ended 

up beating Lake, 8-4, in extra innings to the win the cham-

PHS vs. Southview 

PHS won a high scoring 

game with Sylvania 

Southview at Leyland Field 

last friday by a score of 10-7. 

Things didn’t look too 

promising for PHS going to 

the bottom of the fourth and 

trailing 7-0. The Jackets 

scored their first run in the 

fourth on a sacrifice fly by 

AJ Stockwell. 

Later in the inning with 

two outs and runners on second 

and third, Mitch Renda, 

the Jackets’ pitcher, drove in 

both with a single and closed 

the gap to 7-3. 

PHS added five more runs 

in the fifth and took an 8-7 

lead. 

With two on and no outs, 

Hunter Smith hit a 3-2 pitch 

over the right field fence to 

pull the Jackets to within 

one. 

Five batters later, Renda 

helped his cause even more 

when he hit a long double to 

drive in two more runs. 

The Yellow Jackets’ final 

two runs were scored in the 

sixth inning when Stockwell’s 

single scored Steve 

Slocum and Smith. 

Alex Huff relieved Renda 

in the fifth and picked up his 

first win of the season. 

Stockwell got the final two 

outs in the top of the seventh 

for the save. 

Austin Lee and Nick 

Munger each had two singles 

in the game. Stockwell had 

two hits and three RBIs and 

Renda picked up two hits, including 

a double and four 

RBIs. 

Slocum added a triple and 

Smith had a homerun, his 

seventh of the year and three 

RBIs. 

PHS vs. Rochester Hills 

Doubleheader 

Perrysburg and Rochester 

Adams played a double 

header Saturday at BG’s 

Carter Park, and the Highlanders 

won both games. 

The opener was a high 

scoring contest won by 

Adams, 12-11, and in the 

second game the Jackets 

picked up just three hits in a 

6-1 loss. 

In the first game, sophomore 

Nick Fleming pitched 

well in relief but took the 

loss. 

In his three inning stint he 

gave up one run on one hit 

while walking three and 

striking out one. 

Offensively, Austin Lee 

and Mark Delas each had a 

pair of singles and an RBI. 

Kyle durham had a bases 

loaded double that scored 

three runs and a bases loaded 

walk that scored another. 

Leading the Yellow 

Jacket hit parade was Mitch 

Renda with three hits, including 

two doubles and 

three RBIs. 

Anthony Rorigi was the 

first game starter with Bennett 

Westfall and Fleming 

coming on in relief. 

In game two with 

Rochester Adams, PHS took 

a 1-0 lead in the third inning 

when Steve Slocum singled, 

stole second and scored on 

Austin Lee’s single. 

The Highlanders tied it in 

the fourth and went ahead 

with five runs in the fifth inning 

to end all scoring. 

Lee was the starting and 

losing pitcher for the Jackets. 

Alex Huff came on in relief 

with two outs in the fifth 

and pitched an inning and a 

third, giving up no runs and 

no hits. Freshman Gus Dimmerling 

pitched a scoreless 

seventh inning for Perrysburg. 

The Jackets’ third and 

final hit was a single off the 

bat of AJ Stockwell in the 

bottom of the seventh.

done one evening per week, starting around 8:30 p.m. until around midnight. 

Weather and wind speed determine which night we can spray. Standing water, 

which may be found in street catch-basins, subdivision drains, roadside ditches 

and flood plains, are a few places where mosquitoes breed. You can help reduce 

mosquito-breeding sources in your yard in the following ways: 

• Get rid of old tires, tin cans, buckets, drums, bottles or any water holding 

containers 

• Fill in or drain any low places (puddles, ruts) in yard 

• Keep drains, ditches, drainage swales and culverts clean of weeds and 

trash so water will drain properly 

• Cover trash containers to keep out rain water 

• Repair leaky pipes and outside faucets 

• Empty plastic wading pool at least once a week and store it indoors 

when not in use 

• Make sure your backyard pool is properly cared for while on vacation 

• Fill in tree rot holes and hollow stumps that hold water with sand or 

concrete 

• Change the water in bird baths and plant pots or drip trays at least 

once weekly 

• Keep grass cut short and shrubbery well trimmed around the house so 

adult mosquitoes will not hide there 

The product the City of Perrysburg uses for mosquito control, Duet, is scientifically 

synergized to maximize the effectiveness against mosquito populations 

yet maintains the lowest level of toxicity to man and other non-target 

organisms. 

Mosquito dunks for standing water are free and available to city residents. 

Residents can get up to 8 dunks per year. Stop by the Department of Public 

Service at 11980 Roachton Road, between 7:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday 

through Friday. 

For any questions you may have, contact the Department of Public Service at 

419-872-8020. 

Together we can eliminate potential breeding grounds and increase our enjoyment 

of the great outdoors!

PET OF THE WEEK 

Truder, originally "Intruder", 

was brought to us as 

an injured stray. He is 

sweet and loving and 

would adore being a lap 

cat in a forever home. He 

enjoys being held and 

cuddled and loves being 

admired for his beautiful 

coloring! Truder is considered special needs because he is FIV+. 

Therefore, he needs to be the only cat in his home, or be housed 

with only other FIV+ cats. The adoption fee is waived. 

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 

viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.
