Mayor ‘mugs’ Jack Hoeflinger and Rachel Johnson
City to move forward with phase one of Riverfront master plan–multi-use path
By Deb Buker
With mixed reviews
from residents, Perrysburg
City Council will move forward
with phase one of the
Riverfront master plan–a
multi-use path from Hood
Park to Orleans Park.
At a prior meeting of the
city’s recreation committee,
Council President and committee
chairman Joe Lawless
recommended that the
Riverfront plan be separated
into phases. Phase one being
the multi-use path connecting
Hood and Orleans parks
as well as the recently
opened multi-use path from
Orleans Park to the Perrysburg/Maumee
bridge.
The existing path is a 10-
foot wide asphalt path
which was funded 80 percent
by a grant from the
Ohio Department of Transportation–a
total cost of
$228,000.
According to the master
plan, the path or “River
Trail is proposed to offer
options for moving along
the river in an area east of
the wastewater treatment
facility that can offer spectacular
views downriver.
“The River Trail extension/connections
are proposed
to be smooth pavement,
such as asphalt. Given
the anticipated multi-use
aspect of the trail that
includes pedestrians, bicyclists,
strollers, in-line
skaters and the like, as well
as occasional vehicular
access for service and emergencies,
the master plan recommends
a trail width of 10
to 12 feet.”
“We have talked many
years about this [the riverfront],”
said Councilman
Rep. Tim Brown discusses state budget, unemployment benefits
Tim McCarthy. “We want to
be sensitive to property
owners, and we want it to be
high quality. We want this to
be something we can be
proud of, something we can
build on. Let’s do this carefully,
and let’s do this right.”
Residents voiced concerns
both for and against
the riverfront plan.
Deborah Born presented
a petition to council with
more than 250 signatures
opposed to the master plan.
She requested that council
take no further action on the
plan.
Resident Denny Barrett
said he is against the $25
million proposal but is in
favor of the multi-use path.
“My only concern is that
I don’t want to spend another
$50,000 to $60,000 to
have someone tell us what
kind of path to have–ask
us,” he told council.
Six-year resident Alex
Heard presented a petition
in support of the entire master
plan and recommended
council move forward. He
said the plan is creative,
exciting and it is the future
for the community.
“Be bold and march forward
with all phases of this
project now,” he told council.
“It would be gutless to
hold this project for the next
council.”
Paul Belazis, a Front
Street resident, said his concern
is what the path will
look like.
“The process began two
years ago with a grant
through TMACOG,” he
said. “What it looks like is
based on grant requirements–it
is dictated by the
grant. Don’t link ourselves

Commerce. From left are Debbie Paul, chamber president; Mike Schmidt, chamber board member; Mr. Brown, and

By Beth Church
When State Representative
Tim Brown took his new
position in Columbus this
year, the state budget was the
largest item on his plate.
He describes the decisions
made on the $60 billion
budget as “one of the most
important processes our state
engages in.”
But as a new state legislator,
learning about the budget
and many other issues in the
past eight months has been a
little overwhelming.
“It’s like trying to drink
from a fire hose–it’s a lot all
at once,” Mr. Brown said at
the August luncheon meeting
of the Perrysburg Area
Chamber of Commerce.
Enjoying that learning
process, he described his
new role as “a remarkable
experience.”
Mr. Brown serves on
three committees: State and
Local Government, Health
and Aging, and Banking and
Financial Institutions.
He was pleased to see a
positive outcome for the state
budget, which has a surplus–compared
to the last
biennial budget which had to
compensate for an $8 billion
shortfall.
“It also has restored funding
in a number of areas that
previously had been cut,” he
explained.
Unfortunately, he noted
that local government
“endured its fair share of
cuts” of state funding.
As a former county commissioner,
he has watched
the impact on local government
and supported finding
ways to restore that funding.
Rep. Brown said an additional
$650 million is provided
in this budget for Ohio
schools.
Seventy percent of school
districts saw an increase in
funding, he noted, and no
district had its state funding
cut.
“Additionally, all school
districts were guaranteed for
the next two years to get at
least what they got this year,”
he added.
The budget also increased
funds for school transportation
and special education.
Mr. Brown told chamber
members who are small business
owners that they will
see a 50 percent decrease in
taxes on the first $250,000
that is earned, as well as a 7
percent permanent reduction
in income tax next year.
“That’s a total of $2.7 billion
the state leaves in your
hands through tax reform,”
he said.
The state budget also provides
$40 million additional
for workforce development,
which Rep. Brown believes
can help reverse the shortage
of skilled workers in Ohio.
The state representative is
proud that the first bill he
sponsored, House Bill 2, was
passed and signed by the
governor two weeks ago.
It requires all applicants
for unemployment insurance
to register with the Web site
OhioMeansJobs.com prior to
applying for benefits.
“The requirements will
ensure that unemployment
insurance applicants and
recipients are maximizing
their job search opportunities
and will help connect them
to new services from the
state,” he said.
One aspect of the law
ensures that applicants
receive a weekly listing of
available jobs based on specific
information provided by
the applicant.
Rep. Brown believes it is
important for Ohio to have
“a safety net for people who
can’t work–we have an
Mayor Nelson Evans recognized Jack Hoeflinger and Rachel Johnson with a
“mugging” at the August 20 city council meeting for their hard work and dedication
with the “Go Perrysburg4Transit” committee.

to the grant.”
One requirement of the
TMACOG grant is a hard
surface to comply with the
Americans Disabilities Act.
Councilman Lawless
stated that the surface has
not been determined yet and
administration will review
the grant requirements.
Perrysburg resident
Diane Bishop requested a
less obtrusive path preserving
the natural environment.
“I am also concerned about
the money–where is all this
money going to come
from?” she questioned. “I
don’t want a levy for this.”
Councilman Mike Olmstead
said no final decision
will be made other than to
explore the pathway.
“We certainly have different
views on what we
should do here,” he said.
“The path/trail is a common
thread–a fairly common
theme in both camps. Bottom
line is that acceptance
of this motion by no means
has any final determinant on
anything other than let’s
explore phase one and move
forward.”
Councilman Tom
Mackin said, “As a community,
we have to look at this
long term. The younger people
want access to the river
and we have to be open to
that. This is a good first
step.”
Other Business
In other business, council:
•Approved the $83,618
agreement with Taylor
obligation to help.”
However, he pointed out a
number of problems in the
unemployment system, such
as benefits going to people
because they refuse to work
second shift or they take
drugs and fail workplace
drug tests.
“You have to show due
diligence to participate in the
process we have in Ohio to
help you find work,” he said.
“To make it easy for people
to not work is not a good
system,” he said.
In part the bill was
inspired by an idea from
county government, he said,
concerning transitional work.
County workers who have
been sick or injured are given
transitional duties, with the
support of a doctor, and their
recovery rate is faster when
they are given light duty.
“They are around their
peers, not at home, watching
TV and eating bad which
leads to depression,” he said.
Rep. Brown was pleased
to receive broad bipartisan
support for his bill; of 99
representatives, only 12
voted against it, and only one
of 33 opposed it in the Senate.
Another work-related
proposal he would like to see
implemented would allow
unemployment benefits to be
used for workers who have
had their hours reduced.
“It would prevent layoffs–
we could use unemployment
funds to make up
the difference in wages, but
the employees will still
receive health insurance,” he
said. “And it's cost effective
for the business to keep them
coming in at limited hours.”
Rep. Brown encouraged
chamber members to be
vocal with suggestions for
improving the state’s economy.
He described Governor
John Kasich as “an idea
guy,” although he acknowledged
the ideas have been
good and bad.
“Some I’ve supported and
some I’ve voted against,” he
added. “But he challenges
us.”
Rep. Brown also told
chamber members about the
Common Sense Initiative of
the governor’s office. He
encouraged them to send e-
mail suggestions of business
problems, especially unnecessary
regulations.
Noting that Ohio’s economy
was once the seventh
largest in the world, he said,
“we’ve gotten away from
that.”
He believes part of the
solution to improving the
economy is “to get people
trained and ready to be in the
workforce.”
“Everywhere I go I hear,
‘I can’t find workers.’”

shining example” offering

for the police division.

such training, he said, with
programs from pet grooming
to cosmetology to construction.
“We need people in every
segment of this economy
participating,” he said.
One of the serious deficiencies
in the state legislature,
Rep. Brown shared with
chamber members is term
limits.
“There's not a lot of institutional
knowledge in
Columbus” because state
legislators can serve a maximum
of only eight years.
“We value experience for
every walk of life, but devalue
experience for those who
go to Columbus and make
our laws,” he said.
Rep. Brown believes that
term limits shift power to
lobbyists, staffs and the governor
and away from the legislature.
Because of term limits,
most state legislators keep
their jobs back home, he
said, and have asked for a
compressed schedule in
Columbus for state business.
The drawback is “you
can’t take time to get to
know your colleagues and
those across the aisle,” he
said.
He believes that fellowship
is important.
“We need to work together,
especially in a challenging
economy like this,” he
added.
Superintendent reviews strategic plan update for 2013
By Deb Buker
The mission of the Perrysburg
School District is
“ensuring students achieve
their greatest potential.”
And each year, the district

Bench dedicated to the late Ken McClure at River Walk garden
Last week, a bench in the River Walk garden across from Orleans Park was dedicated to the late Ken
McClure. This past spring, the Perrysburg Garden Club planted a flower garden at the base of the walk, and
Myra McClure, a member of the garden club thought the garden needed a bench to complete the project. She
believed it would be a perfect memorial to her late husband from the McClure family.
“Ken loved to walk and bike in Perrysburg,” she said. “And he always enjoyed sitting on a bench to rest and
view the sunset over the Maumee River.”

PHS girls golf team has win streak snapped by Northview
With the start of school,
the Perrysburg High School
girls golf team also begin its
run for the Northern Lakes
League championship. The
most notable team that
stands in their way is
Northview, the reigning
NLL champs.
Last week, the two rivals
clashed on Highland Meadows
Country Club’s long par
37 front nine playing from
the silver tees.
Unfortunately, the Yellow
Jackets succumbed to the
challenge as the LadyKats
routed the Black and Gold,
185-196.
Senior Monica Dorner
was medalist with a 42.
Other scorers for PHS were
sophomores Madison
Williams, 49; Katie Diehl,
51, and Macy Tudor, 54.
Northview snapped Perrysburg’s
16-match winning
streak in NLL regular season
matches. The Lady Jackets
had not lost an NLL regular
season match since Dorner’s
first match her freshman
year against Southview.
“This was a tough loss,”
Monica said. “We beat
Northview twice already this
season during 18-hole tournaments,
but those don’t
matter when it comes to the
NLL. Our goal is to win the
NLL, and while this loss
hurts, it doesn’t mean that
we can’t still win the NLL.”
The day after losing to
Northview, Perrysburg faced
another foe, the Anthony
Wayne Generals, on their
home course, Brandywine
Country Club. Characteristically,
the Jackets rebounded
and defeated AW, 175-189.
Dorner was medalist with
a 39, while sophomore Sonia
Krolak followed closely
with a 43. Williams chipped
in with a 45, while Diehl
added a 48.
“After our tough loss at
Northview, we really felt
like we had a bounce back
day in us,” said Head Coach
Rick Rettig. “We still have a
great deal to work on, but I
really like how we came
together today.”
Prior to the NLL matches,
Perrysburg had two nonleague
matches.

Club, PHS upended Clay,

171-181. Dorner, Diehl and
Williams all shot 42 to lead
the Lady Jackets, and rounding
out the scoring was senior
Katie Krieger with a 45.
PHS also bested Lexington,
162-189, at White Pines
Golf Club.
Dorner was medalist with
a 37, while Diehl and
Williams carded 40s and
Krolak chipped in with a 45.
“I was happy with this
round because it felt complete,”
said Coach Rettig.
“With the exception of a few
small mistakes, we eliminated
big numbers from the
scorecard and we are doing a
much better job in course
management. Madison
Williams has not only
improved her swing, but she
has become a stronger and
more focused golfer. She
may be slight of frame, but
her ability to avoid trouble
and provide a consistent,
reliable score continues to be
important this season.”
Today, the Lady Jackets
face Notre Dame in a home
match at White Pines Golf
Club beginning at 3:30 p.m.

River Road water line replacement planned
The Northwestern Water
and Sewer District soon will
replace an existing 12-inch
public water line along River
Road.
The project extends from
Eagle Point Road in Rossford
to East Boundary Street in Perrysburg,
affecting many residents
in Rossford and
Perrysburg Township.
Construction will begin in
mid to late September and continue
through next spring, according
to John Sopko, NWSD
project manager.
It is “part of an on-going effort
by the district to improve
water quality, service to your
property and increase fire protection,”
he said.
Water service interruption
may occur during construction,
but affected residents will be
notified.
Local traffic to residents’
homes will be maintained.
Buckeye Excavating will
perform construction on behalf
of NWSD, but an NWSD inspector
will be on site at all
times.
The following neighborhoods
will be affected by the
water line project.
Stonecroft Drive
Existing 4-inch service line
and 8-inch main that goes
down Stonecroft will be temporarily
out of service leaving
everyone without water.
St. Luke’s Hospital has a 6-
inch water line which will be
out of service while it is being
switched to the new water
main.
Rockledge Drive
Existing 6-inch water main
will leave about a dozen homes
without water service while it
is being switched to the new
12-inch.
The existing 6-inch water
main along Secor Woods will
be out of service while
switched over to the new 12-
inch. This will leave all of the
residents along Secor Woods
Lane without water, about 13
homes
Rockledge Drive and
Hufford Road
Along Rockledge, the existing
6-inch water main will
be temporarily out of service,
leaving 10 homes out of service
while it is being switched.
Existing 6-inch water main
along Hufford will be out of
service while it is switched.
This will leave about 10 homes
without water for a short period
of time.
Ford Road and Turnpike
Underpass
While construction is occurring
under the turnpike,
temporarily traffic signals will
be needed because traffic will
be down to one lane.
The existing 12-inch water
main along Ford will put several
residents along Ford between
White and River roads
out of service while it is
switched to the new line.
Duxbury Lane
The existing 8-inch water
main that follows Duxbury
will be temporarily out of service
while it is reconnected to
the new 12-inch line along
River Road. This will leave all
residents along Duxbury without
service since it is not a
looped system.
Shelbourne Road, Hamlet
Commons, Somerset
Road
The existing 8-inch water
main along Shelbourne will be
out of water service as it is reconnected
to the new main.
This will put about seven duplexes
out of service.
The apartments at the Hamlet
Commons will be out of
service as they reconnect the 6-
inch line to the new water
main.
The 8-inch water line along
Somerset will be out of service
while it is connected to the new
water main. This outage will
put six homes out of water
service.
Knight Park
Knight Park will be temporarily
out of water service
while the 2-inch line is reconnected.
Sussex Drive
The existing 8-inch water
line along Sussex will be out of
service while it is reconnected
to the new water main. Only
about four homes will be affected
since this system is
looped and has valves at Fox
and Durham roads.
Hospice
The existing 8-inch water
line for Hospice will be out of
service for a short period of
time as they connect it to the
new 12-inch along River Road.
Morningside Drive
The existing 8-inch water
main will be out of service as
it gets reconnected to the new
12-inch water main. This outage
will affect a large number
of houses.
Waterford Drive
The existing 8-inch line
will be out of service as it is reconnected
to the 12-inch water
main. This will put a handful of
homes out of service.
Hickory Hill Drive
As the existing 8-inch line
is reconnected all of the homes
along Hickory Hill drive will
be out of water service. This is
a looped system so the valve at
the end of Waterford will have
to be shut off.
Jacqueline Road
The existing 8-inch water
line is a looped system so
houses along Jacqueline
should not experience any outage.
They will do one disconnection
and reconnection of the
8-inch at a time.
Bates Road
The existing 12-inch water
main will be out of service for
a short period of time. About
six homes will be affected as
long as the gate valve down
Bates Road is closed.
Rosedale Place
The existing 6-inch water
main along Rosedale will be
out of water service while the
new connection is being made.
This is a looped system, but
about 20 homes still will be affected
during this outage.
Island View Road
According to the district’s
GIS, there should be no outages
because there are two
valves at the intersection of Island
View and Schreier that
can be shut off.
Lime City Road
While the existing 12-inch
along Lime City is being reconnected,
about 10 homes
will be without water.
Elm Tree
With the placement of
valves, no outage should be experienced
by anyone. The existing
6-inch water main is
looped and with closing the
valve where Elm Tree comes
into Lime City, it will be possible
to shut it down with no
businesses or houses affected.
Colony Road
With the existing 6-inch
water main, houses along
Colony Road will be temporarily
out of water service. Colony
Court also will be out of service
while this reconnection is
$
N
taking place.
Rossburn Place
The existing 6-inch water
main will be temporarily out of
service while they make the
new connection. The outage
will occur between River Road
and 137 Rossburn.
Vineyard Drive
The existing 8-inch water
main along Vineyard will be
completely shut down while
the reconnection is made. This
will cause about two dozen
homes to be without water
service.
Rossway Avenue
The 6-inch water main
along Rossway will be temporarily
out of service. This
outage will affect the Rossview
419­874­2877
Apartments.
River Road
For the whole distance
along River Road where this
project is under way, meter pits
will be set at each service while
curb stops will be pulled out.
The contractor is to remove
all existing fire hydrant assemblies
after new waterline is installed,
tested and placed in
service.
On the northern side of this
project along River Road, there
are many businesses that will
be affected by this new waterline.
For more information on
the project, contact Mr. Sopko
at 419-354-9090, extension
175.

Belmont Country Club swimmers receive awards at end-of season celebration
Winning three championship
victories was reason
to celebrate for the Belmont
Country Club swim team
and families. More than
200 attended the banquet
dinner held at the clubhouse
the evening of the championship
meet.
Despite a very long day,
there was no sign of exhaustion.
Swimmers and parents
burst into applause and
cheers as Jackie Venzel,
head coach, reviewed the
undefeated season.
The team’s winning
streak has been extended to
12 dual meets and three
championship meets.
Coach Venzel pointed
out that many swimmers do
not even know what it was
like to not win a meet.
Coach Venzel recalled
the history of the swim team
since she started eight years
ago. “No one could remember
ever winning a dual
meet. After four years of
building the team, we finally
won a dual meet in my
fifth year.” She added,
“You would have thought
we won the trophy.”

the Most Improved Awards.
Receiving this honor were
Emily Claypool, Ellie
Duesing, Charlie Gorski,
Meredith Kulmatycki, Will
Nedley, Zander Poling, Reagan
Root and Stanley Root.
At each meet, first
through third finishers earn
points for the team. Additional
points also are earned
at the championship meet
for first through sixth place.
These points are tallied for
each member of the team to
determine who has contributed
the most points in
each age group.
Winning the Most Valuable
Award for 6 and Under
were Tyler Foster and Reece
Hall; Stevie Green and Elizabeth
Lathrop, 7-8; Sam
Lathrop and Cecily Hayward,

and Alaina Foster, 11-12;
Hayden McClary and
Catherine Disalle, 15-18.
“Five days a week, swim
team practice is held at Belmont.
While not mandatory,
some swimmers come
almost every day putting
forth their best effort day
after day,” Coach Venzel
said.
Acknowledged with the
Hardest Worker Award were
Christian Black, Sean
Brown, Amy Claypool,
Kate Harms, Allison Pisula,
Andrew Turner and Patrick
Turner.
In 2007 the Divers Club
was founded to encourage
swimmers to dive, not jump,
off the blocks.
“They have to do this at a
dual meet or championships,”
coach Venzel said.
“Often nerves get to the
younger swimmers and
what they do at practice
they cannot do at a meet.”
New to the Divers Club this
season were Nick Becker,
Amy Claypool, Tyler Foster,
Mary Lathrop, Thomas
Lathrop, Grandin LeBoutillier,
Cecily Martin, Ben

Artist Profile
Perrysburg resident
Molly Strader has literally
forged a notable career in
contemporary metalsmithing.
She traveled to Bali, Indonesia
in the mid 1990s to
study under a master wood
carver and learn about Balinese
culture.
That trip started the artist
on a journey of devotion to
her artwork and her views of
“simplicity and oneness of
science and beauty,” which is
always present in her art. Ms.
Strader has a bachelors of
fine art degree from the University
of Toledo–with a
major in metalsmithing and
minor in ceramics and sculpture–and
a masters of fine
arts degree from East Carolina
University.
Her artwork focus is predominantly
centered around
creating original, contemporary
jewelry distinguished by
a strong sculptural element
that exemplifies a classic and
timeless appeal.
Ms. Strader was recently
recognized with the Best of
Show award in the Boardwalk
Art Show in Virginia
Beach–an art show produced
by the Virginia Museum of
Contemporary Art. Her winning
piece was a stunningly
creative and beautiful small
teapot–the size of a baby
bird–called “Ready for
Flight.”
Visitors to Ms. Strader’s
booth at Rally For the Arts
should take time to look
carefully at not only her jewelry
but her sculptural pieces
that include tea infusers,
mini teapots called “spots of
tea,” small vessels and objects
that are so unique they
defy description.

Purdue posts
fall dean’s list
Two Perrysburg residents
were named to the dean’s list
for the spring semester at Purdue
University. They are: Evan
Appold and Scott Frissell.
To be named to the dean’s
list, a student must achieve a
semester grade point average
of at least 3.0 and have a 3.5 or
higher cumulative GPA.
A solo exhibit featuring
recent work of salt etchings
by Craig Fisher is on
display through October 15,
in the Perrysburg Municipal
Building, 201 West Indiana
Avenue. Viewing hours are
Monday through Friday,
from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Mr. Fisher’s images are
complex and detailed. They
reflect his fascination with
the tension between the mechanical
and the organic.
His work is filled with
creatures inspired by microscopic
organic matter
(pollen grains, insects, fossil
remnants) that are converging
with our everyday
tools that are familiar yet
out of context (springs,
cogs, switches, and turbines),
things that imply action
or may hint of some
impending motion. The titles
offer fitting clues for
the viewer to put the image
in perspective.
The etching technique
Mr. Fisher practices has not
changed from the time of
Rembrandt. The etchings
are carefully constructed
and built up of fine-meshed
patterns of hatching, crosshatching,
stippling and
rosin dusted aquatints.
There may be as many as
five stages in the etching
process.
Mr. Fisher says his imagery
is as at times
metaphorical or just direct
observations or studies.

Jennifer and Bradley Mettert recently celebrated their
25th wedding anniversary. They were married on August
6, 1988, at Perrysburg Alliance Church.
They are the parents of two sons, Daniel and David, and
daughter Emily.
They were given a surprise anniversary gift of airline
tickets to Hawaii by Mrs. Mettert’s mother, Patricia
Hodges. Along with celebrating their anniversary, they had
the opportunity to visit their son, Daniel, a private in the
U.S. Army who is stationed at Schofield Barracks, Oahu.
The couple enjoyed sightseeing on the island and a dinner
at Jamesons by the Sea on the North Shore. They also
attended a comedy show at the hotel with their family on
August 6, to celebrate.
Mr. Mettert is employed by Toledo Transducers in Holland,
Ohio, and Mrs. Mettert is a substitute teacher for Perrysburg
Schools. They attend Grace United Methodist
Church.

Concerned About Your Financial Health?
Maybe it’s Time for a Second Opinion?
“Buy, Sell, Hold,” are words investors hear constantly
regarding their portfolios. Successful investing is not always
about how much cash you have or if you should buy, sell or
hold. It’s about quality of assets, time horizons, financial
needs, cash flow needs, risk tolerance and many other issues.
Do you understand your exposure to various sectors of the
market and how these sectors correlate to each other? Sector
weightings, asset allocation, management style and other
issues significantly contribute to the volatility of your portfolio.
I believe it is important to understand what your risks are
and how they relate to your financial goals. A detailed
analysis of your portfolio will allow us to give you a valuable
“Second Opinion.”
If you would like to take advantage of our no-obligation
“Second Opinion Service,”
please call 419-873-1400 to schedule an appointment.

Organic farming topic of local
OSU Sept. 5 field day program
Growers interested in
learning the latest in organic
research, including updates
on organic corn production,
organic ecosystem services
and organic pest controls,
can hear from experts from
Ohio State University’s College
of Food, Agricultural,
and Environmental Sciences
during a workshop September
5 in Bowling Green.
The workshop is from 5
to 8 p.m. at the Agricultural
Incubator Foundation,
13737 Middleton Pike
(State Route 582), about
five miles north of Bowling
Green. The event, which is
free and open to the public,
will include dinner. No
reservations are required.
The Organic and Sustainable
Agriculture Field
Day will include the opportunity
for producers to have
an up-close look of the work
conducted by the Organic
Food and Farming Education
and Research (OFFER)
program and take part in a
tour of the Organic Valley
corn variety plot, said Alan
Sundermeier, an Ohio State
University extension educator.
The event will feature
presentations from OSU Extension
and Ohio Agricultural
Research and
Development Center
(OARDC) researchers and
educators. OSU Extension
and OARDC are the outreach
and research arms, respectively,
of the college.
One of the advantages of
attending the field day is
that farmers will have the
opportunity to view highlights
of all of the organic
research Ohio State is conducting,
see the exhibits and
have access to each researcher
who can answer a
farmer’s individual questions,
Mr. Sundermeier said.
“This kind of informal
interaction with the researchers
allows farmers to
better understand what research
we are doing and will
allow us to gear university
research to what the farmers’
needs are,” he said.
“This site is dedicated longterm
in researching organic
systems compared to conventional
systems, to try to
sort out the best practices to
increase farm profits.
“One of the projects
we’re highlighting is the organic
corn plot in conjunction
with Organic Valley
Company, where we have
24 different organic corn varieties
testing.
Farmers can compare results
side-by-side including
different maturities and genetics.”
Other topics for the field
night include:
•Organic corn production
and marketing
•Long-term organic
ecosystem services
•Pest scouting and organic
controls
•No-till organic grain
production
•Cover crops
•Zeolite soil amendment

419-354-9050 or sunder
meier.5@osu.edu.

Suggestions for selecting the right nutrition app
Everyone I know seems
to have a different nutrition
app on their smart phone.
Where can I find information
about whether an app is
a good one?
With thousands of nutrition
and food-related apps
available, it’s easy to feel
overwhelmed.
It helps to narrow down
what you’re looking for. Do
you want something to help
you plan healthy meals, or
are you more interested in
tracking calories, managing
blood sugar or finding restaurants
that serve gluten-free
food?
Once you have narrowed
down what kind of information
you’re looking for
specifically, talk more to your
friends about the apps they
WCCOA to host senior
‘Minute to Win It’ challenge
The Wood County Committee
on Aging, Inc.
(WCCOA) in partnership
with Briar Hill Health Campus
are collaborating to offer
an “As Seen on TV” event
entitled, “Minute to Win It.”
The event will be held on
Thursday, September 12,
from 1 to 3 p.m., at the Pemberville
Area Senior Center,
220 Cedar Street, Pemberville.
Those age 50 and older
are invited to participate in
these unique challenges such
as the “Chocolate Unicorn”
where participants will be
seated and they will attempt
to stack five chocolate Ho
Hos on their forehead or the
“Breakfast Scrabble” where
they will have to place the
front of a cereal box back together
after it was cut into
16 pieces.
Registered participants
will have a chance to participate
in all of the events with
an opportunity to win the
“Minute to Win It” championship
title.
The community is invited
to cheer on the participants
and enjoy refreshments.
To register or for more
information, call Sandy
Abke at the Pemberville
Area Senior Center at 419-
287-4190. or send an e-mail
to programs@wccoa.net.
use and what they like or
don’t like about them. If they
say they like their app but
that it’s “clunky” or otherwise
cumbersome, search
around for other options that
offer the same type of information,
and test them yourself.
As for making sure the
food or nutrition-related content
is accurate, nothing beats
guidance from a registered
dietitian. If your health plan
offers dietetic services or nutrition
coaching, it might not
be a bad idea to sign up for a
session or two and, during
your consult, inquire about
recommended apps.
If that seems a bit much,
you can take a look online at
apps reviewed by the Academy
of Nutrition and Dietetics–the
professional organization
for registered dietitians.
Academy dietitians
started reviewing apps in late
2011, and their initial offerings,
grouped under the categories
of “Diabetes,”
“Gluten-Free” and “Weight
Management,” are online at
the organization’s Web site,
http://www.eatright.org/appreviews/.
These apps, all available
to download free and primarily
geared for the iPhone, are
listed in alphabetical order
under each category. You can
scan the initial listing relatively
quickly to see how
well each app rates on the
academy’s 1- to 5-star scale,
and then click on an app to
get more information.
Since that time, the academy
has continued to review
apps and list the reviews on
its Food and Nutrition magazine
Web site,
Vineyard Church of Perrysburg
will hold a joint service
with Ember Ministry on
Tuesday, September 10, at

facility, 3708 Laskey Road,
Toledo.
Guest speaker will be Ben
Fitzgerald from Bethel
Church, Redding, California.
http://www.foodandnutri
tion.org/Nutrition-Apps/.
Each review details the app’s
pros and cons as well as the
dietitian’s star-rating and
“bottom line.” The apps are
listed in reverse-chronological
order—that is, the most
recently reviewed apps are at
the top. There’s no search
function, but it’s relatively
easy to page through the 62
apps currently listed and click
on reviews you’re most interested
in reading.
