Hollywood Casino Toledo opens to the public
Yesterday, after a 2 p.m. ribbon cutting celebration, the Hollywood
Casino Toledo opened its doors to the public. The casino’s
design and decor reflects the glitz and glamour of 1930s art deco
Hollywood. The art deco motif is complemented by the latest technology
and amenities, including movie trailers and sports and
entertainment programming shown on a giant serpentine video wall,
plasma screens and video trees.
The 24-hour gaming facility on Miami Street just west of I-75 features
a 125,000-square-foot casino floor with 2,002 electronic gaming
machines, plus 80 live poker tables, blackjack, roulette, craps
and carnival style games.
There also are four restaurants in the casino: Final Cut Steak and

A fixed route community
shuttle and ADA service
is the proposed transit plan
for the City of
Perrysburg–if a property
tax levy is approved by
voters in November.
Last week at a public
hearing, Perrysburg City
Councilman and chairman
of health, sanitation and
public utilities committee
Todd Grayson reviewed
what he called a “final
draft” of a transportation
alternative for the city. The
proposal was submitted by
Clear View Strategies, a
transportation consultant
hired by the city, based on
their research, community
meetings and community
survey.
“Your input is valuable
and worthwhile and it is
not too late. There is time
to make adjustments to
this,” Mr. Grayson told the
more than 60 people
attending the meeting. “The
idea here is to work inside
our community in a way
that allows people to get
full access of what Perrysburg
has to offer in a convenient
timeframe as possible.”
A fixed route community
shuttle will provide
scheduled fixed route service
from residential areas
to major community destinations
and/or major
events, and trips will operate
on a loop in alternating
directions each hour.
“This is our starting
position,” said the councilman.
“Our hope and goal is
if we make the community
shuttle attractive and regular,
easy to ride and very
cost effective, then it can
largely replace a call-a-ride
kind of service inside of
town for nonpara transit or
for some para transit
because of its regular runs
all throughout our community.”
The proposed shuttle
route is a 16-mile loop with
stops at Orleans Park,
Shoppes at RiverPlace,
Levis Commons, Perrysburg
High School, Rivercrest
Park, YMCA,
Louisiana House, Country
Charm Shopping Center,
Municipal Park and pool,
Perrysburg Junior High
School and sports complex,
Route 20 shopping, Abundant
Life and Three Meadows
Apartments, Woodlands
Park, 577 Foundation
and downtown.
“Then the ADA/TARPS
style service will basically
mimic what TARTA offers
today through their TARPS
service with a point-topoint
nonstop custom doorto-door
service,” continued
Mr. Grayson. “Part of our
goal here was to minimize
any potential discomfort
and disruption for people
who are wheelchair bound
or otherwise disabled.”
Also, included in the
proposal is a call-a-ride
service.
“I tell you what
folks–no matter what we do
it is not going to be perfect
260; Scene–173-seat modern sports grill; H Lounge–80-seat entertainment
and ultra-lounge, and Take 2 Grill–40-seat grab-and-go
sandwiches, salads and desserts.
The casino also offers valet parking along with a parking garage
of 2,450 spaces.

of Hollywood Casino Toledo, takes a turn at the blackjack table
while his dealers practice.
Top right, the Scene sports grill is located at the center of the
casino floor.
Below left, is the H Lounge stage which will feature live entertainment
every night of the week.
Below right, is part of the pastry counter at the Epic Buffet.
Community shuttle and ADA service proposed for city transit service
on day one, and it is not
going to be perfect after a
year. But it will be able to
be tweaked and we will do
our best to tweak it,” said
Councilor Grayson.
The final transit proposal,
hopefully completed in
the next two weeks, will be
bid to a private contractor,
he added. “We set the
hours, we set the map, we
set the expectations and we
say, ‘here it is, fill this
requirement.’”
The cost estimate for the
alternative transit proposal
is $747,344–fixed shuttle,
$271,440; call-a-ride,
$239,960, and ADA,
$235,944.
The councilman stated
that annual revenue from
fares and ridership levels is
estimated at $30,000.
“Fares really are not going
to cover the costs,” he said.
“We are looking at a 1.25
mill property tax levy
rather than the 2.5 mills we
are paying now. What we
are trying to do is find a
happy medium between the
cost of service and the
effectiveness of the service.
What we think we can get
through on the ballot versus
what is going to help
everyone in this room get
to where they need to go.
“I believe what we have
here is palatable to the voters–a
50 percent tax cut,
provides a local contracting
service, it can be amended

Trustees to place fire/EMS levy on November ballot
By Jane Maiolo
Perrysburg Township voters
will be asked to support
additional funding for the
EMS/fire department this
fall.
At the May 16 meeting,
the board of trustees
approved the placement of a
4-mill continuing levy on the
November ballot for
EMS/fire.
Fire Chief Tom Brice,
who reviewed the financial
status of the department and
its anticipated costs, believes
a 4-mill levy will meet the
department’s needs.
The department currently
has a permanent 1-mill EMS
levy established in 1987 and
a 2-mill, five-year fire levy
in place until 2014, but those
funds are insufficient to fund
the departments.
Trustee Bob Mack said
that for the last 10 to 12
years, the trustees have been
covering fire/EMS operating
expenses out of the general
fund.
But with cuts in federal
and state funding as well as
a reduction in tax revenues,
the township can no longer
afford to fund the department.
Chief Brice agreed, “It’s
been a drain on the general
fund, and we can’t continue
at this pace or the township
will run out of money.”
Administrator John
Hrosko, reminded the
trustees that the department
was originally set up to be
independently funded. Passage
of the levy would allow
the department to return to
that status.
Chief Brice said the levy
will only cover the costs to
maintain fire/EMS at the
current level of service. He
estimates the levy will bring
in $1.45 million annually.
Final figures are pending
from the Wood County
Auditor’s Office.

Penta students recognized at school board meeting
By Jane Maiolo
It was standing room
only at the May 9 meeting
of the Penta Career Center
board of education.
Students from various
trade programs were on
hand to display their trophies
and discuss recent
competitions and events in
which they participated.
Students in construction
trades programs brought
with them a miniature golf
putting hole they designed
for use at the Epilepsy Center
of Northwest Ohio’s
Practically a Golf Tournament.
This is the second year
students have designed a
putting hole for the fundraising
event, which is held
in May at Levis Commons
in Perrysburg.
Also addressing the
board were students who
placed in the top 10 at state
contests, and those who
qualified for national contests
in BPA (Business Professionals
of America),
DECA (Distributive Education
Clubs of America),
FCCLA (Family, Career and
Community Leaders of
America), FFA and Skills-
USA .
In BPA contests, 11 students
finished in the top 10
at state contests with seven
finishing second or third.
DECA students also fared
well at the state level with
77 finishing in the top 10
and 41 of those qualifying
for national contests.
Twenty FCCLA students
finished with high marks at
the state level, 13 receiving
gold medals and seven others
earning silver medals. Of
that group 10 have or will
compete in national competitions.
In SkillsUSA contests,
12 students earned
gold, silver or bronze
medals, and two gold medalists
will continue on at the
national contest June 23-27
in Kansas City, Missouri. Of
the 35 students who competed
at the state FFA contests,
19 finished in the top 10, six
of whom finished in second
place.
Each group expressed its
appreciation to the board for
allowing them the opportunity
to compete.
Superintendent Ron Matter
commended the students
on their outstanding performances
and wished well to
those continuing on to state
contests. “We have a lot of
great kids doing a lot of
great things,” he told the
board.
Other Business
In other business, the
board:
•Accepted the retirement
of William Kopaniasz, adult
education human resources
development coordinator,
effective June 30 and the
resignations of Charita
Spells, cafeteria, effective
May 4 and Mark Ryan,

and it can be changed if we
need to. I hope that speaks
to the voters.”
If approved, the new
transit system would begin
January 1, 2013.
A resident asked if the
levy does not pass in
November what is the
city’s plan. Mr. Grayson
responded the city would
put the issue on the March
ballot. However, at this
time, there is no plan to
offer a transportation alternative
if the levy fails.
Organizational Meeting for Supporters of
Public Transportation
Monday, June 4
7 p.m.
Way Public Library
Those interested in helping support a levy campaign to fund
public transportation services in the City of Perrysburg are
invited to attend and participate in an organizational meeting
on Monday, June 4, 7 p.m., at Way Library.
The purpose of the meeting is to begin organizing an effort to
support the anticipated levy that will be on the ballot for Perrysburg
voters in November. The initial draft of the proposed
plan submitted to Perrysburg by Clear View calls for funding
for the service to be obtained through a property tax levy.
Anticipating that the final plan, regardless of the amount, will
be funded in the same matter, it will be necessary to demonstrate
the need for and value of public transportation to voters
of Perrysburg.
The purpose of the meeting is not to debate or revise the plan
proposed by Clear View, which is currently being completed
and will be submitted to Perrysburg City Council. The meeting
also is not to discuss other issues, such as the possible “gap”
in services. Again, the meeting is to organize supporters of
public transportation who believe quality public transportation
is a benefit to all of the residents of Perrysburg.

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; 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 Seyfang/Del Vicchio home. According to Robert
Boyd’s book, “Perrysburg Historic Architecture,” the house was built in 1898 and
was known as the Harry Barton House. The book states that “the house is
designed with recognizable Queen Anne and Shingle elements. Notice the steeply
pitched roof of irregular shape, asymmetrical facade, exposed rafters where the
roof protrudes, patterned shingles, and other devices used to avoid a smoothwalled
appearance. Barton was the son of well-known English-born merchant
William Barton and spent most of this adult life in Toledo.”
For additional information on the tour, call Phyllis Morton, 419-872-0846.

Perrysburg Fire Division reminds
residents to ‘call before you dig’
It is the time of year
when the Perrysburg Fire
Division sees an increase in
people hitting natural gas

utility lines during
construction and landscaping
projects.
To enhance public safety,
the Ohio Utilities Protection
Service (OUPS) was created.

Sections 3781.25 and
3781.32 require everyone to
contact the O.U.P.S. at least
48 hours, but no more than
10 working days (excluding
weekends and legal holidays),
before starting any
digging or excavation work.
It is recommended that
no project is too small to

to determine if
there are any underground
utilities and/or from what
direction they may enter the
building. Even replacing a
mailbox or fence post there
is no guarantee that the person
who made the original
installation called or simply
got lucky.
Another factor to consider–has
the topography of
the ground changed The
utilities may have originally
been buried at the correct
depth but over time erosion
may have caused the utilities
to be closer to the surface
than anticipated.
“When you do not call,
you are not only risking
your safety and the lives of
those around you, but emergency
responders as well,”
explained Fire Chief Jeff
Klein. “What many people
do not realize is that they
will be liable for repairs and
damage done to property
from fire/explosion and lost
product.”
Even when O.U.P.S. has
marked the utility lines, accidents
do occur. For safety,
walk away immediately and
leave the area for protection.
Do not try to repair or stop a
leak or use anything that
might create a spark, such as
a cell phone, added the fire
chief.
If a substance starts releasing
into the air, such as
natural gas, immediately
call 9-1-1.
For any damaged facility,
also contact the utility company
listed on the nearest
marker as well as O.U.P.S.,
even if there appears to be
no damage, not all facility
damages can be detected by
the naked eye.
O.U.P.S. can be contacted
24 hours a day at 8-1-
1 or 1-800-362-2764.

Astronomical Assn. to host
public viewing session June 5
The Toledo Astronomical
Association, in cooperation
with the Olander Park
System, will hold a public
viewing session of the transit
of Venus on Tuesday,
June 5. The program will
be held beginning at 6 p.m.,
weather permitting, at the
Nederhouser Community
Hall. The event is free and
open to the public.
At this viewing, Venus
will appear to cross the
face of the sun. This is
perhaps the rarest of the
predictable astronomical
phenomena. It did not
occur in the 20th Century
and will not reoccur until
2117, making it literally a
once-in-a-lifetime event.
Fewer than 10 transits of
Venus have been recorded
in history, although many
more have occurred.
Should the weather permit,
visual viewing will be
undertaken until sun set.
Regardless of the weather,
viewing via the Internet
will be conducted within
the hall until at least 10
p.m.
The Toledo Astronomical
Association is a group
of amateurs who are interested
in all facets of astronomy.
The group maintains
telescopes at Pioneer Scout
Reservation and portable
telescopes in the Greater
Toledo area.
The association also
presents star parties and
other viewing activities and
hosts a series of speakers.
For more information,
call Frank Merritt at 419-
535-8775 or send an
e-mail to frank.merritt@
utoledo.edu.

Families program will be
offered Friday, June 15,

Avenue, Perrysburg.
This program will provide

intended to help with the
additional expense of having
children at home during
the summer.
To be eligible, families
must have a student who is
currently participating in
the free breakfast and
lunch program at his or her
school in the northwest
section of Wood County,
including Perrysburg and
Rossford.
First time participants
should register with the
church by calling 419-874-
4346.
Identification and proof
of residency must be presented
at the first meal.
Owens Community College graduates more than 800 students at spring commencement
More than 800 Owens
Community College students
recently realized their educational
goals and dreams as
they were awarded degrees in
various academic disciplines
during the academic institution’s
46th annual Spring
Commencement ceremony.
For 57-year-old Geraldine
Davis of Toledo, an English
major, Spring Commencement
represents a new beginning
and an aspiring career as
an author.
“My college education has
been a huge lift to my confidence
and has made me a better
writer,” said Ms. Davis,
whose first novel titled “Suspended”
is set to debut in
July.
Davis, an Honors Scholar
and the primary caretaker as a
grandmother of six children,
added, “Graduating from
Owens means achievement
and accomplishment. I never
thought that graduating from
college was a possibility several
years ago. Now at the
age of 57, I can say that anything
is possible.”
According to mathematics
major Andrew Hartke of Oregon,
obtaining his associate’s
degree is the first step toward
the career goal of becoming
an educator in higher education.
“I am very excited about
the first step in my educational
journey,” said the 30-yearold
Hartke, who also has
helped his fellow students in
their educational pursuits as a
peer mentor, tutor and supplemental
instruction leader.
“Walking across the stage and
receiving my college degree
is very special and something
that was far from my mind

Owens diagnostic medical
sonography graduate Cortney
Missler, 21, is ready to
embark on a new career as a
sonographer, a field and
career she first envisioned
entering at a very young age.
“My aunt is a sonographer
and graduated from the same
Owens program,” said the
Toledo resident, who also
achieved the program’s Outstanding
Sonography Student
Award. “I always wanted to
be a sonographer, and now I
have reached my goal. Graduation
is a huge accomplishment.”

Mercy, Northern Region,
served as the keynote speaker
and shared some words of
advice and encouragement
for the graduating class with
the overall theme of becoming
societal contributors.
“Success is not only measured
by the difference that
you make, but also by the
determination that it takes,”
she said. “You have the same
number of hours in every day
as Edison, Lincoln, Galileo,
Mother Theresa, Thoreau,
King, da Vinci, Mandela and
Einstein. The world needed
them. The world needs you.
Make every minute count.”
Additionally, Loral
Browning, known as “Mike”
to his friends and family, was
selected as the Owens class
representative and addressed
the graduates during the
Spring Commencement ceremony.
The 59-year-old Toledo
resident earned his associate’s
degree in marketing and sales
technology with a financial
services sales option. Prior to
enrolling at Owens, Mr.
Browning was employed in
the food industry as a distributor
for 38 years. He never
missed a paycheck until
2010, when he lost his job.
He shared with his fellow
graduates how Owens has
given him many opportunities,
new friends and a new
start in life.
“Your choices have been
superior up to this point. That
is why you are here,” said Mr.
Browning. “Lean on the
friends you have made, your
family, your advisors and faculty.
They will help you make
the right choices for the
future. Many of you will be

getting new jobs. Many of
you will go on in school. I
wish you well with whatever
path you take.”
In addition to the honor of
being chosen to address the
graduating class, Mr. Browning,
a 1971 Start High School
graduate, achieved a 3.8
grade point average and is a
member of the Kappa Beta
Delta and Chi Alpha Epsilon
national honor societies. He
also served as a student representative
of Owens on an
international study tour to
China in May 2011. He credits
his success to the support
and encouragement of the
faculty and staff at Owens,
including Holly Burnside,
Jeffrey Hardesty and
Ramadevi Kannan. The support
of his family was also a
critical part of his educational
success, including his wife,
Donna, who pushed him to
make sure his homework was
finished, and his sons,
Michael, Brian, Chad and
Chris.
When Mr. Browning, who
also is a grandfather, began
his studies at Owens, he
never thought his educational
path would end with an associate’s
degree. He soon found
that Owens and a college
education was much more
than he ever envisioned and
that he was excited about the
possibility of learning something
new every day.
As a result, he intends to
continue his studies after
graduation and transferring to
a four-year institution to continue
working toward his
bachelor’s degree in business.
Ultimately, his goal is to
work within the areas of sales
or management.

Angela Pantorno receives Girl Scout Gold Award
Angela Pantorno from
Perrysburg, received the esteemed
Gold Award from
Girl Scouts of Western Ohio
in a ceremony held on
Wednesday, April 18, at the
Tamaron Country Club.
The Girl Scout Gold
Award is the highest award
that Girl Scouts, ages 14 to
18 can earn. The efforts put
forth to earn this award express
a special commitment
by the recipients to themselves,
their community and
their future.
The required steps for this
award are chosen to help Girl
Scouts develop skills, practice
leadership, explore career
possibilities and learn
more about themselves.
The final step in earning
this award is the Gold Award
Project. This project is an extension
and a combination of
all that girls have learned
through previous Girl Scout
activities.
Angela is a junior at Perrysburg
High School and is
the daughter of Michael and
Elaine Pantorno. Her project,

to provide a safe haven for
these families to rebuild, including
the basic needs of
clothing and a place to stay.
However, they did not have
extra money to purchase
items to entertain the children
staying at the shelter.
In order to meet this need
of the children, Angela designed
care bags for the children.
Each one contained
items specific to the child’s
age, gender and learning development.
Angela created a
total of 16 care bags with donations
she received from
her church and community.
Space was also an issue for
the donations, so Angela designed
and built a specially
made hall tree on which to
hang the care bags. Angela
also hand-painted flower designs
to decorate the stand.

Hundreds of area residents
turned out May 20 to tour a
new home constructed by students
at Penta Career Center.
Over the past school year,
150 high school students in
construction trades programs
worked on the 2,200-squarefoot
house as part of their career
training.
Owned by John and Janet
King, the ranch-style home at
10663 Eckel Junction Road,
Perrysburg, sits on more than
nine acres and features three
bedrooms, three bathrooms a
full basement and an unfinished
second floor.
The Kings chose Penta to
build their home after learning
that the career center was looking
for a home to construct and
taking a tour of a home the students
had built last year.
To be closer to their daughter
and grandchildren, the couple
chose Perrysburg as the
place to build a home.
Mrs. King said the couple
had originally planned on having
her mother move in, and to
accommodate her, they built
the home to be handicap accessible
with wide hallways and
doors.
She said she is pleased with
the work the students have
done. “They built our dream
house the way we wanted it.
The kids are good workers,
and their workmanship is excellent.”
She noted that the instructors
and students also were
very accommodating when it
came to design modifications
such as the installation of a
linen closet in a hallway wall.

DECA marketing program students
host employer appreciation breakfast
Perrysburg High School senior Liz Tearney, who works
with preschool and junior students at CedarCreek Church,
recognized employer Steven Whitlow, who oversees student
ministries at CedarCreek’s south Toledo campus.
On May 10, students
enrolled in the Penta Career
Center DECA marketing
education programs held an
employer appreciation program,
recognizing their
employers and presenting
awards of distinction to two
employers.
Receiving awards of distinction
for 2012 were
Rave Cinemas at the Shops
at Fallen Timbers and Darlene
Stilwell and DeEtte
Nijakowski, mother
/daughter owners of the
Tim Hortons restaurants in
Rossford and Maumee.
Cassidy Cohen, a
Springfield High School
senior, presented the award
plaque to Rave Cinemas
representatives Brooke Fraley,
a 2009 Maumee and
DECA program graduate
and Lindsay Sullivan.
“Rave is one of the leading
employers of our
DECA program,” said Cassidy.
“The business has
coordinated students every
year since buying out
National Amusements in
2009 and even employs
staff and management that
were students of the organization
previously.”
Noah Intagliata, a
Maumee High School
senior, presented Tim Hortons’
owners with a plaque.
He noted that Mrs. Stilwell
became interested in franchise
options after writing
a research paper for college.
“She chose Tim Hortons
because the company was
focusing on expansion in
the United States,” he said.
She and her daughter
took over the poorly-performing
Rossford location
and through hard work and
the hiring of dedicated
employees, turned around
the store, reaching $1 million
in sales in three years.
The team then built the
new Maumee store in 2008
and hope to expand in the
area, he explained.
“Mrs. Stiles and Mrs.
Nijakowski have established
a relationship with
the Penta Career Center
marketing programs over
the years,” Noah continued.
“They have continually
supported the programs as
training station sponsors
through marketing research
projects and by contributing
to community events.
Thank you so much for all
you have done for our programs
and our students.”
Jimmy Reyes of the
Anthony Wayne High
School DECA program,
commended all 97 training
station sponsors/employers.
“On this day the seniors
would like to take this time
to say ‘thank you’ to our
employers for a job well
done, by hosting this breakfast
in your honor,” he said.

support of the DECA marketing
program were the

Family members, friends, classmates and neighbors
walked for those with Williams Syndrome in the
first-ever Northwest Ohio Walk for Williams held May
19 at Grace Church and Woodlands Park.
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.
Walkers were invited for lunch, games and entertainment
following the walk.
The event, organized by Michelle Self Bentley,
Greg and Sherry Grover and Deanna Durham, raised
more than $6,000 with 150 walkers participating.
Above, carrying the hand-created and signed
Williams Syndrome Association banner, from left, are

Syndrome, and Alex’s uncle Mike Self from Dayton.

Park.

Mr. Murray said that although they winter in Florida, the couple has the Messenger Journal

PJHS raises funds for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
At the Perrysburg Junior High Spring Spirit Assembly held on May 4, staff and students
duct taped Assistant Principal Robin Laird to the wall as a student council fund-raiser for
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Mrs. Laird also turned 50 during the weekend, so
the students honored her with balloons and funny glasses and the student body sang
“Happy Birthday.” The student council raised $223 by selling passes for students to wear
hats during the school day. Money also was raised by selling duct tape to fasten Mrs.
Laird to the wall during the pep assembly.
Toledo Area Humane Society
offers $5 Friday special for cats
The Toledo Area Humane
Society has many furry felines
currently looking for
homes and many more currently
in foster homes that
soon will be available for
adoption.
To help find forever
homes for the cats and kittens
currently waiting at TAHS,
the Humane Society is offering
“$5 Fridays” through
June 29.
Every Friday, from 11 a.m.
to 7 p.m., all cats and kittens
will have their adoption fees
reduced to just $5 each.
“We want to be able to
take in and re-home as many
animals as possible, so we’re
hoping by reducing cat and
kitten adoption fees with ‘$5
Fridays,’ we will be able to
quickly find homes for many
of them. The more cats and
kittens that get adopted, the
more space we will have
available to help more cats
and kittens coming to the Humane
Society each day,” said
Executive Director John
Dinon. “We’re currently taking
in over 100 cats and kittens
each week and we have
more than 150 kittens currently
in foster homes waiting
until they are old enough to
go up for adoption. We only
have limited space available,
so the more animals we can
find homes for, the more animals
we can help.”
Because adoption fees
will be so greatly reduced
during “$5 Fridays,” TAHS
wants to remind adopters that
donations are greatly appreciated
in addition to the reduced
adoption fees to help
cover their costs and to help
them help more animals. All
cats, kittens, dogs and puppies
adopted from the Toledo
Area Humane Society are
spayed or neutered, get microchipped,
receive their ageappropriate
vaccines and get
a physical exam by on-staff
veterinarians.

‘Backpack to the Future’ supply
drive to benefit area school children
As another school year
comes to an end, many students
are once again placing
their backpacks in storage or
are discarding them entirely
in anticipation of buying next
fall’s latest fashion trend.
Owens Community College’s
Alumni Association has taken
the initiative of once again organizing
a gently-used backpack
drive to provide new life
for what many students consider
their mobile lifeline to
learning.
The college’s Alumni Association
community service
endeavor, titled “Backpack to
the Future,” is currently accepting
gently-used or new
backpacks and new school
supplies from area residents
during the summer months.
Items collected, as part of the
“Backpack to the Future”
program, will be given to
low-income elementary
school children throughout
northwest Ohio.
“There are many low-income
families that can barely
afford to pay their bills, and
may not be able to provide
their children with new supplies.
The Owens Community
College Alumni
Association’s goal is to ensure
that such occurrences do

begin their school year
with new educational resources,”
said Kaye Koevenig,
Owens Community
service chair of the Alumni
Association.
In addition to the gentlyused
backpacks and new
backpacks, individuals can
donate crayons, markers, bottles
of glue, glue sticks, colored
pencils, pencils, pink
erasers, school boxes, pocket
folders, marbled covered
composition books and
Kleenex tissues. Area residents
can bring their charitable
donations to the Office of
Alumni Relations on the
Toledo-area Campus on Oregon
Road in Perrysburg
Township.
Since establishing the program
in 2004, the Owens
Alumni Association has given
2,356 backpacks and 42,661
school supplies to benefit disadvantaged
children throughout

Revised dangerous and
vicious dog laws in Ohio became
effective on May 22,
creating new requirements
and standards for dog owners
in Ohio.
The Wood County Dog
Warden Andrew Snyder
provides the following information
to advise county
residents of the changes.
Under this revised law if
reasonable cause exists and
a dog meets the applicable
definition, the dog warden
or law enforcement officer is
required to designate a dog
as a nuisance, dangerous,
and/or vicious. All unprovoked
dog bites also will result
in the dog’s automatic
designation as a dangerous
or vicious dog.
Dog owners whose dogs
have been deemed nuisance,
dangerous, or vicious will
receive notice from the designating
officer of such designation.
The owner may
request a hearing to contest
the designation but must file
the request in writing within
10 days of the designation to
the municipal or county
court that has territorial jurisdiction
over the residence
of the dog’s owner, keeper,
or harborer.
The owner, keeper, or
harborer of a dangerous or
vicious dog must comply
with the following requirements:
•Post signs indicating the
presence of a dangerous or
vicious dog;
•Spay or neuter the dog;
•Microchip the dog;
•Obtain and maintain
current rabies vaccinations;
•May have to obtain specific
liability insurance coverage,
and
•Must register the dangerous
or vicious dog annually.
The required registration
of a dangerous or vicious
dog with the Wood County
Auditor costs $50 annually.
This is in addition to the regular
annual dog registration
and license fee of $14, or
$28 if purchased after the required
timeframe.

fashion or an apparent attitude
of attack or has attempted
to bite or otherwise
endanger any person.
•Dangerous Dog:
955.11(A)(1)(a) ORC
Subject

provocation, has done
any of the following:
(i) caused injury, other

to any person;
(ii) killed another dog;
(iii) been the subject of a
third or subsequent violation
of ORC Section 955.22(c)
(i.e., failure to maintain reasonable
control of the dog or
failure to keep the dog physically
confined at all times.).
•Vicious Dog:
955.11(A)(6)(a) ORC
Subject
to
955.11(a)(6)(b), vicious dog
means a dog that, without
provocation, has killed or

ODA issues quarantine
to protect walnut trees
In an effort to protect the
walnut trees of Ohio, the
Ohio Department of Agriculture
(ODA) is proposing an
exterior state quarantine regulating
the transportation of
walnut products from areas of
twelve other states to prevent
the introduction of Thousand
Cankers Disease (TCD) to
Ohio’s walnut trees.
TCD primarily affects
black walnut trees, as well as
other species of walnut, and is
caused by a fungus transported
by the walnut twig
beetle. The beetle spreads the
fungus when it bores into the
branches and trunk tissue of
walnut trees, which are killed
by repeated infections by the
fungus.
TCD was first found in
Colorado in 2003, and has
since been detected in 11
other states. These states include
parts of Arizona, California,
Idaho, Nevada, New
Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
Tennessee, Utah, Virginia
and Washington.
Walnut materials originating
from infested counties within
these states will be regulated
under the exterior state quarantine.
The quarantine would restrict
walnut materials from
R E A L E S T A T E
REALTY, INC.
entering Ohio from areas
where TCD has become established.
Restricted products
originating from or traveling
through the regulated areas
include walnut nursery stock,
unprocessed walnut lumber,
or any other walnut material,
such as logs, stumps, roots,
branches, mulch, wood chips,
other products created from
walnut trees, and hardwood
firewood.
Exemptions to quarantine
are nuts, nut meats, hulls,
processed lumber (100 percent
bark-free, kiln-dried with
square edges) and finished
wood products without bark,
such as walnut furniture, instruments
and gun stocks.
Although not yet detected
in Ohio, landowners and
homeowners are strongly encouraged
to watch for signs
of TCD on their walnut trees.
Symptoms of TCD vary, but
commonly include thinning
crowns, yellowing or wilted
leaves in the crown, leaves
that are smaller than normal
and recently dead limbs.
Individuals who see any
suspicious signs on their walnut
trees are encouraged to
call ODA at 614-728-6270 or
send an e-mail to plant
pest@agri.ohio.gov.

Community garden planted by Heights Assn.
The Perrysburg Heights
Community Association recently
completed planting its
inaugural garden. The
36’x70’ area with raised
beds is located behind the
Community Center on Jefferson
Street.
Approximately 14 members
of the Perrysburg
Heights community and
friends planted tomatoes,
onions, hot peppers, sweet
peppers, zucchini, squash,
lettuce, peas, beans, broccoli,
cauliflower, cucumbers,
cabbage, and herbs.
The garden area is fully
enclosed and has an underground
watering system.
Financial support for the
project was provided by the
Perrysburg Garden Club and
the Country Garden Club. A
truckload of compost was
donated by the City of Perrysburg.
Vicki Gallagher,
master gardener at The 577
Foundation, was an advisor,
and many area residents provided
garden tools for the
planting.
Members and junior
members of the association
are maintaining a weekly
weeding and watering schedule.
The Perrysburg Heights
Community Association
hopes to have plenty of vegetables
in the summer and
fall to distribute free to Perrysburg
Heights residents
who become part of this
project.

planting project. Below: Amara Perez takes a turn watering

Perrysburg Jazzercise owner receives
President Club Silver Award
Jazzercise, the world’s
leading dance fitness program,
recently honored Perrysburg
instructor/owner
Wendy Cromie with the prestigious
President’s Club Silver
Award for her performance in
the Jazzercise international
fitness franchise business.
The President’s Club program
rewards successful franchisees
by giving back a
percentage of his/her franchise
fee based on four levels
of sales achievement: Platinum,
Gold, Silver and
Bronze.
The levels are determined
based on annual gross sales
revenues. The sales of the
Perrysburg facility contributed
to Jazzercise, Inc.’s
record $97 million in system
wide sales in 2010-11.
Jazzercise ranks as the
number one fitness franchise
according to the Entrepreneur

Franchises, the company’s
highest ranking ever.
This year, Jazzercise, Inc.
rewarded President’s Club recipients
with more than $1.8
million globally. Since this
rebate program was instituted
in 1994, Jazzercise has given
back $20 million to its franchisees.
Ms. Cromie has been an
instructor for Jazzercise for
six and a half years and has
been owner of the Jazzercise
Fitness Center of Perrysburg
for the last year and a half.
Together with her team of five
instructors, they teach 27
classes per week at their location
at 120 West South
Boundary in the Country
Charm Shoppes shopping
center.
“I have loved this fitness
program for 30 years,” said
Ms. Cromie. “I weigh the
same as I did when I got married
30 years and three children
ago. What we’re doing
here at Jazzercise makes a
difference. Each of our instructors
and our students
could tell you a story too.
They have decreased their
cholesterol, kept their stress
levels low, increased their
bone densities and more.
Overall they are happier and
healthier and that’s our goal.”
