Link Crew brings
students together
In the aftermath of school
violence, many districts are
focused on tighter security
and tougher enforcement.
However, Rossford High
School has been working to
bring students together to try
to avoid problems from the
beginning.
RHS Assistant Principal
Pat Murtha recently gave a
report to the Rossford Board
of Education on the success
of the Link Crew program.
“This is a mentorship program
run by students that’s
very unique,” he said.
The program divides up
freshmen into groups or
“crews,” each led by an
upperclassman.
The groups bond together,
participate in activities and
tutoring, and start their high
school experience in a positive
way.
“There’s more social
interaction,” said Mr.
Murtha, who serves as a Link
Crew advisor, along with
teachers Tim Edmond, Kellie
Hawk and Kadee Poiry.
Classes for freshmen
begin one day early at RHS,
so the new students gain confidence
in themselves, learning
their schedules and the
building.
“It makes the first week
or two easier for them,” the
assistant principal added.
The crew leaders check in
regularly with freshmen and
assist with tutoring.
They also decorate freshmen
lockers for the holidays
and send them small gifts.
This winter there will be a
food drive war and a kickball
tournament between the
individual crews.
“Hopefully, it pays off
academically and socially,”
Mr. Murtha said.
Although rare in Ohio, he
said the program is very popular
in Michigan, California
and Canada where there are
more than 1,000 participating
high schools.
This year, there are 26
student Link Crew leaders
assisting 124 freshmen at
RHS.
These leaders are “a good
cross-section of the school”

New restrooms, rec building
postponed for Veterans Park
By Beth Church
New handicap accessible
restrooms, a concession stand
and recreation building for
Veterans Memorial Park will
remain–for now–part of the
city’s long-range plans.
Rossford City Council
delayed those projects and
decided Monday to move
ahead only with a new sewer
pump station at the park.
Council debated the project
at a committee-of-thewhole
meeting last week and
again at a regular meeting
Monday evening.
When the Northwestern
Water and Sewer District
announced the upcoming
replacement of the Jennings
Road pump station, residents
on Riverside Drive complained
about its location.
Kris Cuprys, of 1
Riverside Drive, told council
that NWSD plans showed the
new pump station to be built
only 17 feet from her house
and blocking her view of the
Maumee River.
Council had been discussing
an option to locate the
pump station in Veterans Park
as part of a building with a
concession stand and new
restrooms to serve the park
and marina. The current restrooms
at the top of the hill do
not meet ADA standards.
However, by a 5-2 vote
Monday, council decided to
limit the project to the pump
station. Council members
Caroline Zuchowski Eckel
and Jerry Staczek voted no.
The two options presented
by the NWSD were:
•Site A–locating the pump
station between the tennis
courts and ball diamond,
about 50 feet north of the
existing restrooms.
The cost would be $1.29
million with the city responsible
for $284,654. The district
would finance the project, and
Rossford customers would
pay 75 cents per month for 20
years.
This option would provide
a connection for a future
multi-purpose and restroom
facility.
•Site B–locating the pump
station to the west of the tennis
courts at a cost of $1.09
million and no additional cost
to the city or Rossford customers.
This option will include a
12 by 14 structure for the
pump station in an aesthetically
pleasing building. A generator
to operate the system
would be placed above
ground, in a locked, fenced
area, and insulated so noise is
minimal.
The existing pump station
on Ms. Cuprys property will
be abandoned.
Council President Larry
Oberdorf walked through the
park last week with NWSD
engineer Bill Barber and City
Administrator Ed Ciecka to
view the sites.
“Site B makes the most
financial sense,” he said. “The
cost outweighs the benefit [for
site A].”
Councilman Chuck
Duricek agreed, suggesting
that the restroom, concessions
and rec building projects be
separated from the decision
and discussed more by the
finance committee and
parks/recreation committee.
However, Council member
Eckel urged council to
support site A so the plumbing
would be available for restrooms
to be added.
Councilman Staczek noted
that the cost would be “about
$9 a year to beautify one of
our assets.”
“Site A prepares us for our
future down there,” he added.
Councilman Staczek
added that his “no” vote on
the project was meant to
express his support for a
building to which restrooms
may be added–not to keep the
pump station in Ms. Cuprys’
yard.
Councilman Robert Ruse
said he believes the restroom
facility could be built later at
much less than the $284,654
cost of site A.
He also noted that site A
would place the building in
the middle of the hill, preventing
sledding by
children–whereas site B
places it more discreetly
among the trees.
Mayor Neil MacKinnon
III suggested council continue
to discuss the projects because
“at minimum we need ADA
bathrooms there.”
NWSD officials were
eager for council to make an
immediate decision because
construction on the connected
forced sewer main began this
week.
“We have a situation
where we’re bypassing raw
sewage daily into the
Maumee River, and we have
to stop that. That’s what’s
really driving this,” Mr.
Barber told council at the
committee-of-the-whole.
The inadequate pump station
causes daily overflows
into the river and the marina,
he said.
“There’s a problem with
sanitary sewer overflows in
this community into the rivers
and streams,” Mr. Barber
added.
An overflow along
Glenwood Road at the bridge
recently was eliminated and
that progress was reported to
the EPA, he said.
“You have other ones in
the community that we’re trying
to eliminate,” he said.
“And so our goal is we’re trying
to get that taken care of
immediately and keep from
getting EPA orders and fines.”
He said NWSD and the
©WELCH PUBLISHING CO.
city “have a general understanding
with the EPA that as
long as the city is making
progress we won’t be issued
orders.”
Park Improvements
Ivan Kovacevic, parks and
recreation director, described
benefits and uses of a new
concession stand and rec
building at the February 4
committee-of-the-whole
meeting.
He reviewed buildings in
use at area parks in Oregon
and Bowling Green and at
Rossford and Clay schools.
Mr. Kovacevic contrasted
those buildings with current
facilities at Veterans Park.
“We’re kind of limited on
what we can serve from the
health department because of
the design of the concession
stand,” he said.
It has formica instead of
stainless steel counter tops
and concrete not finished
floors. Also there is only a single
sink–not a three compartment
sink separate for washing.

including juniors and seniors
active in drama, athletics,
band, special education and
other interests, he said.
The leaders volunteer a
great deal of time before the
school year begins preparing
for their crews.

“We want the kids who’ll

Murtha said.
“It does take a lot of
time,” he acknowledged.
“And it can be all-consuming
for the advisors.”
This is the second year of

“We talk about how to

Mr. Murtha said.
Two Rossford Record readers shared
their photos of a bald eagle perched
high above Rossford last week.
This photo of the eagle looking over
Eagle Point and Colony roads was taken
February 7 by Paul Ekey from his front
yard.
“We think he was checking out his
namesake street and neighborhood,”
Mr. Ekey said.
John Lemay of Jennings Road sighted
the eagle from his kitchen window as
it was perched in the first tree north of
Eagle Point on Colony.
“This stately creature has been there
for at least the past half-hour and shows
no signs of leaving anytime soon,” Mr.
Lemay said.
“One is truly blessed to see one of
these birds in the wild, but to see one
outside the window of your own home is
an incredible treat!”

Financing options for new school facilities discussed
This is the fourth of a fourpart
series reporting the findings
of the Rossford Schools
master plan steering committee.
This week focuses on
school finances and an analysis
of funding for facilities.
By Beth Church
In the midst of making
major decisions on new or
renovated buildings,
Rossford School officials
must tackle another vexing
problem: an annual $1.4 million
budget shortfall for the
next several years.
A report on school
finances was given by the
master plan steering committee
at a January 17 forum
with about 80 area residents
attending.
John Appt, chairman of
the master plan steering committee,
explained that the district
has saved a “rainy day”
fund creating some stability,
but he warned that it will not
last.
“The district is starting to
go in the red,” he said. “The
cash balance–we’re starting
to eat into that. And by 2015,
we’ll use it up.
“Even if we do nothing
[on facilities], there is a future
cost down the road.”
Phasing out the tangible
personal property taxes on
Ohio businesses has been a
detriment to Ohio schools.
State officials pledged to
“make good” on the tax loss
for several years, but as that
amount decreases, Rossford
will lose about $400,000
annually.
In addition, the school district
faces a loss of $600,000
of property taxes due to the
decrease in real estate values,
he said.
In 2010, property tax revenues
for the school district
were $6.5 million, but
dropped to $6 million last
year, and this year are expected
to be $5.8 million.
Sue Gluckin said the
financial analysis subcommittee,
which she chairs, was
formed to determine how
much money may be available
to fund school facilities.
Their work includes
exploring school funding
options and reviewing the
school district’s financial
health, she said.
Also serving on the subcommittee
are Al Espen,
Kevin Weaks, Eric Hutchins
and school board member
Jackie Brown.
They are assisted by
David Conley and Emily
Cannon, financial consultants
from R.W. Baird, and James
Rossler Jr., school district
treasurer.
Mrs. Gluckin presented a
spreadsheet showing a fiveyear
financial forecast for the
school district.
The financial subcommittee
asked Mr. Rossler to create
the five-year forecast for
expenses that allows for no
salary increases except “step
increases” in pay for employees
due to longevity and
advanced education.
Even limited to those
increases, the district’s expenditures
still jump from $23.48
million last year to $24.19
million this year, $25.46 million
in 2015, and $27.23 million
by 2017. [see box]
Mrs. Gluckin said the subcommittee
is examining
many options for financing
new or renovated buildings,
and these options follow.
Funds With No New Taxes
“We’re looking for the
easiest way to obtain money,”
she said.
These options would
include:
•Cash reserves.
•Permanent Improvement
Funds set aside by the school
board for facilities.
•Corporate Contributions/
Grants such as naming rights
for a sports arena.
•Performance Audit by the
State Auditor, which is set to
begin soon and be completed
by May. It will evaluate the
economy and efficiency of
financial systems, human
resources, facilities and transportation.
•Energy Savings based on
the feasibility study started in
March 2012.

By Beth Church
A plan to close Indian
Hills Elementary, cluster the
elementary grades in two
buildings and move sixthgraders
to the junior high has
been approved by the
Rossford Board of
Education.
But the board agreed at a
February 5 meeting not to
make the changes until the
2014-15 school year.
“We felt this is something
we need to do in our district
to be successful,” said Dawn
Burks, school board president.
Before a crowd of more
than 120 parents and school
employees, Interim Superintendent
Bill McFarland
explained the proposal.
Pre-kindergarten through
grade 2 students will attend
Glenwood Elementary, while
grades 3 to 5 will attend
Eagle Point Elementary. All
sixth grades will move to
RJHS to create a middle
school.
There would be 23 teachers
at Glenwood with 437
students, and 18 teachers at
Eagle Point with 425 students,
he said.
At RJHS, there will be
400 students with some overflow
of eighth graders into
the high school.
Among the benefits he
noted are improved collaboration
among teachers of the
same grades and better
preparation for new state curriculum
standards such as the
third grade reading mandate.
“And we can more easily
balance class sizes without
bussing,” he added.
Mr. McFarland acknowledged
that financial savings
from the new plan are
unknown and have yet to be
calculated.
A minimum of two teachers
from kindergarten
through fifth grades will be
reduced, likely through attrition.
“We have quite a few
prospective retirements,” the
superintendent said.
The effect on classified
staff “is another situation,”
he said.
With the closing of Indian
Hills, one cafeteria will be
eliminated, reducing staff;
although, the sixth grade
presence will add another
lunch to the RHS cafeteria,
which is shared with the junior
high.
Mr. McFarland noted that
that sixth graders will enjoy a
better lunch at that cafeteria
since they currently “are eating
what the kindergartners
eat.”
Transportation changes
also will be significant, and
sixth graders will ride the
first run busses.
Remodeling of the junior
high and high schools will be
necessary to accommodate
the number of rooms needed.
Because Indian Hills is
the only ADA compliant elementary
school, he expressed
some concern that handicap
access renovations will be
needed at Glenwood and
Eagle Point.
“Obviously, this is a huge
undertaking,” Mr. McFarland
said.
Board members heard
from about 15 parents and
teachers, asking questions
about the plan.
Several parents questioned
the closing of Indian
Hills with its handicap
access, while using
Glenwood, which is located
adjacent to the busy State
Route 795 in a building with
many repairs needed.
“Your youngest community
members will be housed
in a building with the most
needs,” Indian Hills parent
Dave Misko said.
Parent Nicole Roe also
pointed out that students with
medical conditions benefit
from the air conditioning at
Indian Hills.
In response to concerns
about handicap access, Mr.
McFarland said students
could be scheduled for
ground floor classes or chair
lifts could be added to stairways.
“Band-aid approaches
have been used all along at
all these facilities,” he said.
Larry Shaw noted that
even if Indian Hills is closed,
the grass will still need to be
cut and boilers maintained.
“There’s a lot of costs for
that building to sit vacant,”
he said.
Ms. Burks said the board
has discussed closing Indian
Hills to classes, but moving
in all administrative offices.
Then the board of education
office, student services
building and Bulldog Center
could be closed, rented or
sold.
“That allows the administration
to all be in one
area,” she said.
Several other parents
encouraged the board to
make the decisions as part
of a long-term plan for
school facilities.
“It’s obvious something
needs to be done,” Amy
Adams said. “But this doesn’t
solve the overall problem
of these aging facilities
in different locations.”
She questioned the wisdom
of “making such a huge
change and not knowing the
costs.”
Melanie Whitaker mentioned
the problem of
crowded facilities at the elementaries
such as “standing
room only for music programs”
when parents attend.
She inquired as to why
the board seems to be acting
quickly without a long-term
plan.
RHS math teacher Matt
Schlatter said the plan for

For nearly 50 years, candidates
for Perrysburg Municipal
Court have run for office
without declaring a
Republican or Democratic
party affiliation. But the Wood
County Board of Elections is
considering a change of procedure
for the race.
If that decision is made, a
primary election in May will
narrow the field of candidates.
Board of Elections members
were scheduled to meet
yesterday morning, February
13, to make the decision and
approve petitions of candidates
in the race.
Debbie Hazard, director of
the Wood County Board of
Elections, said the question
was raised as to why Bowling
Green Municipal Court judicial
races are partisan, but the
Perrysburg court’s are not.
“Historically, Perrysburg
has run non-partisan,” she
said.
The Board of Elections
maintains Perrysburg court
election records back to the
mid-1960s, which indicate
that a partisan race has never
occurred.
When the question was
raised, Ms. Hazard said neither
the Ohio Revised Code
nor the Perrysburg city charter
could clarify the matter.
It was referred to the
Board of Elections board
members: Republicans Mike
Marsh and Matt Reger and
Democrats Richard Newlove
and Mike Zickar.
“We’ve never had this situation
before,” Ms. Hazard
said.
Mr. Zickar said the board
asked Bowling Green attorney
Max Rayle to provide a
legal interpretation from the
Ohio Revised Code, and he
determined that the code
“does provide for a partisan
primary” in this case.
Mr. Zickar agreed, “My
reading of the Ohio Revised
Code is that if the
Republicans want to have a
primary that the law allows
for that.”
A primary race is needed if
more than two candidates in a
party file to run. The deadline
for the May primary was
grade configuration is “a
really good idea.”
However, he believes the
board should not “dump
money into something and
eventually bulldoze it to the
ground.”
“Facilities should be the
lead,” he added.
Another RHS teacher,
Michael Krieger, asked how
the addition of sixth graders
into the junior high/high
school complex will affect
scheduling.
“When will the sixth
graders eat lunch–when they
get off the bus in the morning?”
he said.
Ms. Burks attempted to
answer the parents’ questions
and concerns, explaining
that the plan for grade
reconfiguration is based on
the board’s goal of “reducing
costs and improving
academic performance.”
She added that Rossford
has one of the highest costsper-pupil
in the area.
The school board has
been discussing options
since last fall, and the
majority of school staff
members support this proposal.
“We don’t feel we’ve
rushed this,” she said.
Even if voters approve a
levy in November to build
new schools or renovate
current facilities, Ms. Burks
said that process would take
three to four years.
A long-term plan currently
is being developed by
the master plan steering
committee with input from
the public, she said.
Board member Jackie
Brown noted that $1.4 million
in budget cuts must be
made each year for several
years–and this option will
help achieve those cuts.
Mr. McFarland said other
cost-cutting measures being
adopted by the district are
not filling positions left
vacant by retirements and
negotiation of labor contracts.
Board member Bev Koch
said she is confident in the
process that led to this proposal.
“A lot of time and effort
and consideration have gone
into these decisions,” she
said.
Board member Doug
Miller said he supported the
plan, but emphasized the
need for savings to be determined.
“The driving force is the
cost savings–we need to nail
that down,” he said.
The board had discussed
implementing changes this
fall, but voted unanimously
to wait until 2014-15.
Board member Ken
Sutter agreed, “I want this
transition to be smooth for
teachers and staff, for kids
and for transportation, and
for you, as parents.”
Perrysburg Municipal Court
candidates may run in primary
February 6.
Three Republican candidates
filed last week: C. Drew
Griffith, magistrate of the
Northwood mayor’s court;
and Aram Ohanian and Molly
Mack, both Wood County
assistant prosecutors.
John Spore and Tom
Mackin also took out petitions
but did not file.
Incumbent Judge S.
Dwight Osterud announced in
December that he is not seeking
re-election.
The board’s decision will
not affect the November ballot
because judicial candidates
in Ohio never declare a
party affiliation in the general
election, according to Ms.
Hazard.
Individuals still can run for
the office as independent candidates,
and their deadline to
file is May 6.
The Perrysburg Municipal
Court jurisdiction includes the
cities of Rossford, Perrysburg
and Northwood; townships of
Perrysburg, Lake and Troy,
and villages of Walbridge and
Luckey.

Gluckin noted that area
school districts of Eastwood,
Perrysburg, Elmwood
and North Baltimore receive
funding from school income
tax levies.
•Permanent Improvement
Levy.
The work ahead for the
financial analysis subcommittee
is to identify funding
options and have a 10-year
forecast created of district
finances.
The subcommittee also
would like to gather information
from the community,
and “develop financing
options to fit the community’s
needs for facilities.”
Mrs. Gluckin invited
area residents to express
their opinions on how to
finance school facilities and
to attend the finance subcommittee
meetings.
“We can’t put together a
financial package until the
community tells us what it
wants,” she said.
A complete copy of the
school financial records presented
at the January 17
meeting is available to the
public for download at
www.ross fordschools.org
or in printed form at the
BOE office.
February meetings to be held to discuss
planning for new school facilities
Residents of Rossford School District
are still invited to be involved in planning
for new school facilities.
A series of public input meetings in
February continues to discuss the results of
the recent needs and condition assessments
of school facilities.
“Most important will be to share your
ideas about our schools and community,”
said John Appt, chairman of the master
plan steering committee.
“It is in the best interest of the students
and community to embrace the goal of
enhancing and updating their academic
programs and facilities,” he said.
“The keys to success are continuing to
provide information to the community and
having involved residents provide feedback.”
Copies of the presentation can be
viewed and downloaded, along with complete
versions of the needs and condition
assessments and survey results at the Web
site www.rossfordschools.org. Click on the
“Master Plan Committee and Subcommittees”
section. Printed copies are available
at the board of education office.

New restrooms, rec building
postponed for Veterans Park
ÁContinued from page 1
“So we can’t do hot dogs
and hamburgers because
we’re not meeting current
health code regulations for
those,” he said.
Concessions are limited to
prepackaged goods, such as
chips, candy, pop, water.
Microwaves are used for coffee
and popcorn.
Better concessions would
serve baseball, softball, flag
football and soccer games, as
well as the marina, he said.
He proposed a new building
for the park featuring
ADA unisex restrooms; a
concession stand with an
attached kitchen; a room to
seat 50 people or to house a
summer day camp program
for children, arts and crafts
classes, or yoga or other exercise
classes without equipment;
and exterior storage for
ball field equipment.
The multi-purpose room
could be similar to the senior
center room at the Rossford
Community Recreation Center
that holds about 50 people.
“We can use it for rentals
for birthday parties, showers,
wedding receptions, Scout
events, marina events, senior
activities and fitness classes
that don’t require equipment,”
he said.
Also if one side of the
building is plain, it could
serve as a screen for outdoor
movies in the park.
“The park does get a
decent amount of utilization
throughout the year,” he
added.
Mr. Kovacevic also
described the current park
restrooms, which were built
before the Americans with
Disabilities Act.
“And they’re on top of the
hill and not convenient for
everything going on,” he
added.
Councilman Greg Marquette
questioned whether the
current restrooms in ADA
violation risk the city being
sued.
Mr. Ciecka responded,

“those restrooms are open to
the public and are not compliant.”
Councilman Duricek
recalled that “the restrooms
up there were bad when I was
a kid.”
He suggested a temporary
option of a portable restroom
trailer that could be connected
to city water and sewer lines.
“It’s a way to move forward
that’s actually decent,”
he said.
Mr. Marquette noted that
long-term plans for the park
could include more than one
restroom, perhaps by the
marina and by the playground.
Council member Eckel
said she envisions new buildings
in the park with a boathouse
design “to fit with the
marina and waterfront park
façade.”
Mrs. Eckel reviewed the
FEMA floodplain maps and
determined that the flood line
reaches into the ballfield.
“A future building would
have to go by the tennis
courts,” she said.
She provided council with
some cost estimates, but
noted “a lot of variables factor
into the cost of the building.”
She estimated the cost
would be about $100 to $120
per square foot, but could
increase to $140 to $160 per
square foot.
For instance, the City of
Oregon built a 1,500-squarefoot
concession stand that
cost $155 per foot, plus
design work.
So the final costs could be
$176,000 for an economical
building to $240,000 for an
“upscale version,” Mrs. Eckel
said.
“Partnering with NWSD,
a lot of the those costs would
be shared,” she added.
She believes many people
in the community would benefit
from a new park facility.
“I think this project would
encompass lots of different
facets,” she said. “Rec would

use it the most–Ivan’s done a
good job filling up the rec
center with programs, so it’s
the extra space that has been
talked about. Summer day
camp kids would be down at
the park.
“It would benefit parkgoers
to have clean nice restrooms,
and marina boaters
have been asking for something
other than a porta-potty
for a long time. I think the
opportunities are endless.”
While serving on the marina
committee, Councilman
Mike Scott said he has been
interested in improving “the
desirability and look of that
area.”
The new guard shack and
finger docks have improved
the marina, he said, but “this
is a bit of an underutilized
jewel down here, and we
have an opportunity now.”
He noted that community
wide events such as the living
history Chautauqua events
would benefit from better
facilities.
“This could lend itself
really well to bringing people
into Rossford,” he said.
Councilman Robert Ruse
cautioned that a long-term
plan for the park should be
established before any buildings
are constructed.
“I wholeheartedly support
the parks, but I think we need
to go into this with a plan,” he
said.
Mr. Ruse also suggested
contracting the concessions to
a private vendor instead of
keeping it as a city responsibility.
Council President Oberdorf
believes the most immediate
need is to move the
pump station into the park,
and at a minimal cost.
“We certainly need some
type of building down there,”
he said. suggesting further
planning and ascertaining
costs.
“That’s going to take some
time, but I’m in favor of a
building down there,” he
said.
The weekly deadline for Letters to the Editor is noon on Monday. Letters should be limited
to 300 words. Letters from the same writer will be accepted no more frequently than

only two letters regarding a certain issue will be printed each week. All other letters will be
posted on the newspaper’s Web site, www.rossford.com. The newspaper reserves the right
to accept or reject letters, and to edit them for clarity and length. Letters should be submitted
with the author’s name, signature and daytime telephone number.

Letter to the Editor
Dear Editor:
2012 was the deadliest
year in our nation due to
mass shootings, since
1982 when records began
to be kept. Seven mass
shootings left 72 people
dead and 68 others
injured.
When Adam Lanza
allegedly decided to enter
Sandy Hook School and
gun down 20 first graders
and six school officials,
something happened in the
heart of America. To kill a
classroom of innocent 6-
year-old children left a
wound in our hearts that
refuses to heal.
As a result, I have felt a
burning conviction that we
as a community of faith
must wake up to the reality
of the increasingly violent
world and do something
to stem the violence.
Our first effort as a
church is to bring several

Open Letter
Dear Rossford Board of
Zoning Appeals:
Recently the owner of
the Bulldog Diner appeared
before city council to
express his concern about
parking near his establishment,
particularly on high
volume nights at the casino.
His true complaint
should have been directed at
the BZA for approving a
driveway cut directly across
the street, thus permanently
eliminating three very
important spots, very critical
to the existence of the
businesses in that area.
Why have signs not been
installed and warnings
issued? And are stone driveways
permitted in the city?

Would You Like a Second Opinion?
Are you unsure of what to do?
“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.

On February 6, a Wood
County grand jury indicted
a Rossford resident for burglary.
Andrew R. Okonski, 32,
of Valley Drive, has been
indicted on one count of
burglary, a felony of the
second degree, in an incident
which allegedly
occurred on January 16.
If convicted, he faces
fines of up to $15,000 and
eight years in prison.
His case has been
assigned to Wood County
Common Pleas Judge
Reeve Kelsey.
A Rossford man was
arrested last week for his
alleged involvement in a
“chop shop” ring operated
in east Toledo.
Gary Wymer Sr., 55, of
Hillside Avenue was taken
into custody at his home
February 7, by FBI agents
and Rossford police.
Also arrested were
Mike Wymer, Mike
Deutsch, Terry Wymer Jr.
and Shawn Wymer, based
on a federal complaint
filed in U.S. Court, Northern
District of Ohio for
their involvement in a
scheme involving stealing
cargo and dismantling
semi-trucks and trailers.
An arrest warrant also
was issued for Robert
Debolt.
“These
defendants
operated a truck and cargo
theft ring, stealing from
Ohio, Michigan and Indiana,
which resulted in
multi-million-dollar losses,”
said Stephen Anthony,
special agent in charge of
the FBI’s northern district
of Ohio, in a statement
released last week.
U.S. Attorney Steven
Dettelbach added, “This
was a highly organized
group that stole from people
throughout the region.
The FBI, Ohio State Patrol
and all the law enforcement
partners involved in
this investigation have
done a tremendous job
shutting down this ring.”
Three search warrants
were executed at 642 Sterling
and 2322 Consaul in
Toledo, two suspected
chop shop locations, and at
661 Sterling in Toledo, the
home of Mike Wymer,
according to the FBI press
statement.
Items
confiscated
include keys, titles, license
plates, paperwork from
stolen semi-trucks and
trailers, ATVs, motorcycles,
crushers, front end
loaders and dump trucks.
In September, the Ohio
Highway
Patrol
approached the FBI about
joining forces to investigate
reports of semi-trucks
and trailers with contained
cargo being stolen. The
joint investigation revealed
an extensive scheme that
reached into Ohio’s neighboring
states.
The individuals arrested
are suspected of being
involved in a conspiracy to
steal trailers in as many as
nine Ohio towns, six towns
in Indiana, and three in
Michigan from September
to December 2012, resulting
in an estimated loss of
more than $2 million,
according to the FBI.
Items within those trailers
included ATVs, rolled
copper wire, thousands of
pounds of aluminum scrap
metal, aluminum shavings,
diamond plate sheets and
spools of metal.
Some of these items
were trafficked to New
Castle, Pennsylvania, and
sold as scrap or were listed
on the Internet for sale, as
in the case of the diamond
plate sheets, the FBI stated.
The case is being prosecuted
by the U.S. attorney’s
office following a
joint investigation by Ohio
State Highway Patrol, Federal
Bureau of Investigation,
Toledo Police Department,
National Insurance
Criminal Bureau, and the
Ohio Bureau of Motor
Vehicles.

Feb. 17-20
The public is invited to attend
a Lenten parish mission,
“The Year of Faith: How is
Belief Possible in the Midst
of the Modern World?” next
week at St. Rose Catholic
Church
Msgr. Frank Lane of
Mount St. Mary’s Seminary,
Cincinnati, will be speaking
at 7 p.m., each night Sunday
through Wednesday, February
17-20.
St. Rose pastor Monsignor
Marvin Borger explained
that a parish mission
features four evenings of presentations
on Scripture,
Catholic doctrine and practice,
emphasizing a deeper
understanding of the faith.
“A parish mission allows
you to take time to look at
your life, values and direction,”
he said. “It encourages
you to ask: ‘What is really
important to me? What am I
doing with my life? What
values do I have? Where does
God fit into my life? What
does my faith, my Church,
mean to me?’”
The public is invited to attend
one or all of the talks in
the church, 215 East Front
Street, Perrysburg.

Ashley Skala honored by educational service center
Rossford High School
student Ashley Skala was recently
honored at a Wood
County Educational Service
Center program, held at the
WCESC on Monday, February
4. Ashley was recognized
for completing
WCESC’s Living Classroom
program by Belinda Rhoads,
director of special needs;
Diane Witt, special needs
coordinator; and Kelly
Vanorder, WCESC instructor,
as well as the WCESC
superintendent and school
board members.
Ashley has been part of
the Wood County ESC’s
“Living Classroom,” a bestpractice,
community-based
instructional model developed
to serve students with
disabilities. Instructional
programming occurs in a
local apartment at the local
university and community
establishments. The goals of
the program are to provide
each student with the foundation
of skills for independent
living, employment,
recreation/leisure, transportation,
social relationships,
and selfdetermination.
According to Mrs. Witt,
since being a student in the
Living Classroom, Ashley
Shown at the WCESC meeting are, from left: Kelly Vanorder, Ashley Skala and Belinda
Rhoads.
has experienced much success
and growth in vocational
skills, independent
living skills and social skills.
Ashley has learned how to
become more independent
through her experiences in
the program apartment,
through working at Bowling
Green State University and
Wood County ESC, and
through experiences in community
establishments.
Ashley will graduate this
school year after finishing
her education in the community-based
Living Classroom
during the past three years.
Through a team effort with
WCESC Instructor Kelly
Vanorder, and her family,
teacher and staff, as well as
adult service agencies, Ashley
is a more independent individual.
She will now
transition into Wood County

work and experience adult
leisure activities.
Attending the program
were Ashley’s family, including
her brother, Mark
Skala, a senior at Rossford
High School, who also was
honored at the program as
the WCESC February Student
of the Month. Ashley
and Mark will graduate together
on June 1.

War of 1812 soldiers, like
soldiers from other wars,
served their country through
a myriad of conditions. Just
as today, soldiers endured the
monotony of camp life punctuated
by the horrors of battle
and the hardships endured on
the march. Join, Dr. Nelson

like for the men who served
from 1812 to 1815.
Dr. Nelson has authored
Need

Among Them: Alexander
McKee” and “Indian Affairs
Along the Ohio Frontier,
1754–1799” and “Men of Patriotism
Courage and Enterprise:
Fort Meigs in the War
of 1812.”
He has written several articles
on topics relating to
Ohio history and military history.
Dr. Nelson is the former
site manager of Fort Meigs
State Memorial, having retired
in 2004.

him comfortable, but they did.”
