This is the conclusion of 

a series on the City of Perrysburg’s 

departments, divisions, 

offices and bureaus. 

By Mayor 

Nelson Evans 

Over the past few 

months the Perrysburg 

Messenger Journal has 

been running a series of 

articles on your city workers 

and the jobs they do for 

you every day. 

These were meant to be 

a forum to introduce you to 

the employees who work 

for you, as well as instructional 

in the specifics of the 

daily operations they perform. 

I hope you found 

them helpful and enlightening. 

There seems to be much 

angst today about government 

and its role in our 

lives, its efficiency versus 

the private sector, and the 

employees who provide the 

services. 

I can assure you that the 

administration and council 

are constantly working on 

efficiencies that don’t 

reduce the quality service 

provided. We have no problem 

contracting with the 

private sector for work that 

can be done at a lower cost 

and of higher quality. 

I may be biased, but 

your city employees are of 

the highest quality. They do 

so many things, so well, and 

on many occasions over and 

above what they are 

required to do. They know 

they are there because of 

you, the taxpayer. There are 

a few glitches now and 

then, but I would put them 

up against any workers in 

America today. 

Our society and its 

expectations have changed 

dramatically since we officially 

became a city in 

1960. 

As a former police officer, 

I like to use the example 

of the Kerner Commission 

in the 1960s that was 

created as a result of the 

riots during that time. One 

of the recommendations of 

the commission was to have 

a more educated police 

force sensitive to the issues 

of poverty, mental illness 

and other community needs. 

Soon after, colleges and 

universities started offering 

criminal justice and law 

GARBAGE COLLECTION 

Garbage, recycling 

and yard waste 

collection will be

from Tuesday, January

and Recycling will be closed on January

enforcement degrees. States 

started police academies to 

train and certify police candidates. 

Hopefully the public 

feels they are getting a better 

service as a result of 

these standards. Additionally, 

firefighters are now paramedics, 

water and water 

pollution control staff have 

to be licensed, general labor 

employees have to have 

CDLs and other certifications 

to operate equipment. 

In addition, the EPA, the 

Bureau of Workers Compensation 

and other federal 

and state safety and regulatory 

agencies have enacted 

many rules and processes to 

the city’s operations. 

My job is to try and 

strike a balance between 

employee quality, education 

and pay with service excellence 

and governmental 

regulations at a reasonable 

cost. The city has not raised 

its income taxes since the 

early 1970s. I see no reason 

to increase that in the future 

despite the state cuts that all 

municipalities have experienced 

in the last few years. 

We’ve instituted many 

changes over the last few 

years that have saved millions 

of dollars and as a 

result helped us eliminate 

our general fund debt. The 

citizens of Perrysburg are 

the ultimate decisionmakers 

when it comes to services 

provided by their employees 

and/or government. 

With the city’s growth during 

a slow economic recovery, 

I surmise most people 

appreciate the standard of 

service our city provides for 

their investment, otherwise 

they wouldn’t be moving 

and staying here. 

We will continue to commit 

to our mission: 

•To preserve our heritage 

while encouraging the 

responsible growth of our 

community. 

•To provide courteous 

and professional service to 

all citizens and visitors. 

•To maintain the highest 

possible quality of life for 

the community. 

•To provide and maintain 

effective and efficient public 

safety and service programs 

for the entire community. 

Hold us to it!

‘It is all about family and Perrysburg is family’ 

Perrysburg Schools dedicates new baseball field–the Jim Leyland Family Field 

Addressing more than 

200 guests, family and 

friends at the dedication ceremony 

for the Jim Leyland 

Family Field, Perrysburg 

native and Detroit Tigers 

manager Jim Leyland said 

he is not sure the baseball 

field should be named Jim 

Leyland Family Field. 

“I think the way Perrysburg 

is, it would more 

appropriate to call it Family 

Field because that is what 

Perrysburg is about–families,” 

he said. “There are so 

many friends, so many 

coaches, so many buddies of 

mine here and my brothers 

and sisters are all here 

tonight–family. It is not 

about the Leyland family or 

the Dhondt family or the 

Fishbaugh family–it is about 

family. And that is why we 

were so eager to participate 

in this project and fortunate 

enough to be able to give 

something back. And hopefully 

we can continue to do 

so in the future.” 

The new baseball field, 

which replaces the current 

field at the junior high, is 

located on the Perrysburg 

High School campus on Fort 

Meigs Road and features a 

state-of-the-art drainage system. 

“That is so important in 

northwest Ohio. We have 

the best drainage system out 

there,” said Ray Pohlman, 

Perrysburg District athletic 

director. “We will be playing 

games while other teams 

will be cancelling games. 

Another advantage is the 

irrigation system.” 

He also noted that the 

new field has lighted 

dugouts, scoreboard, backstops 

and sound system. 

Superintendent Tom 

Hosler told the group the 

new facility will usher in a 

new era for future generations 

of students. 

“The excellent facilities 

will serve as the new home 

for our teams, where they 

can carve out new traditions, 

watch teams execute legendary 

and championship 

seasons, see players make 

spectacular plays and unfortunately 

watch umpires 

make terrible calls,” he said. 

“This highly anticipated 

facility represents an extraordinary 

step forward for 

our school and community’s 

already outstanding athletic 

program. This field will 

enable the programs to 

attract and retain quality 

players, host post season 

and championship games, 

reduce our costs by eliminating 

the need to shuttle 

students from the high 

school to the junior high for 

games and practices. And 

Mayor Evans, it will hopefully 

reduce teenage traffic 

speeding down South 

Boundary at 3:15 p.m. in the 

spring.” 

The superintendent recognized 

the many contributors 

who made donations 

towards the fields–business 

partners; Whiston family; 

Burke Badenhop, class of 

2001 and a major league 

pitcher for the Milwaukee 

Brewers; the PHS athletic 

By Deb Buker 

In a letter to parents, faculty, 

staff and community members 

last week, Perrysburg 

Schools Superintendent Tom 

Hosler addressed the tragedy 

at Sandy Hook Elementary 

School in Newtown, Connecticut. 

“It is difficult to find the 

words as I write about the 

tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary 

School in Newtown, 

Connecticut on Friday. The 

incident has left the nation 

stunned. This heinous crime is 

a reminder that we must 

remain diligent in protecting 

our most valuable and precious 

possessions–our children. 

I want to reassure parents, 

staff and community 

members that we take the care 

and protection of our students 

very seriously in Perrysburg. 

“We regularly review our 

protocols, make adjustments 

to our plans as needed and 

practice our response to a 

range of emergency situations. 

We convene a monthly district 

wide safety committee, in 

which Wood County Sheriff 

Mark Wasylyshyn serves as a 

The dedication of the Jim Leyland Family Field was held on Wednesday, 

December 19, at Perrysburg High School. 

Pictured above, from left are Superintendent Tom Hosler, Athletic Director Ray 

Pohlman, Mr. Leyland and Perrysburg High School principal Dr. Michael Short. 

Below, PHS varsity baseball players Austin Lee and Steve Slocum unveiled Mr. 

Leyland’s high school jersey that will be displayed at the high school. 

Perrysburg High School Class of 2001 graduate and pitcher for the Milwaukee 

Brewers Burke Badenhop also contributed to the funding of the new fields. The 

pitcher, who was unable to attend the dedication ceremony, was represented by 

his parents Dalynn and Sharon Badenhop. With the Badenhops is PHS head base- 

boosters; Mr. Leyland, class 

of 1962, his wife Katie and 

his family for their contribution 

and tireless support of 

PHS programs; and the 

entire Perrysburg community 

for their continued financial 

support of the schools. 

“This all came together 

under the leadership of Mr. 

Pohlman,” he said. “Thank 

you Mr. Pohlman for the 

vision and your tireless 

work. Mr. Leyland has 

served as a catalyst for this 

project, and we are so grateful 

for his support and help 

in making today possible. 

“When Mr. Pohlman 

shared with me the vision 

and his initial conversations 

with Mr. Leyland, Ray said 

that Jim told him in no 

uncertain terms to ‘do it 

right.’ Mr. Leyland, I hope 

we got it right.” 

The superintendent said 

when baseball is mentioned 

in Perrysburg there is only 

one name that comes to 

mind–Leyland. 

“The work ethic, tenacity, 

humbleness and devotion 

to family are just some of 

the qualities that have lead 

to his success on and off the 

field,” he continued. “Dedicating 

the Jim Leyland Family 

Field is an honor because 

it is these qualities that we 

want our players to exhibit 

on the field and in life. I 

remember reading an article 

about Mr. Leyland that 

relayed a conversation 

where he said he could sum 

up his philosophy with 

‘nobody is bigger than the 

team.’ Mr. Leyland for years 

has been the patron saint to 

Perrysburg and Perrysburg 

baseball. Giving when it 

was needed and helping 

when asked. All the while, 

never wanting to be recognized 

for his many gifts and 

contributions. In his personal 

life he doesn’t want to be 

bigger than the team. We are 

so happy to be part of that 

team.” 

Perrysburg Head Baseball 

Coach Dave Hall said in 

106 days, his team will take 

the field and win the game. 

“When I got the job as 

head coach back in 1986, 

one of the goals was to try 

to improve our baseball 

facilities. I am a slow learner. 

It has taken us a long 

time to get here, but it was 

always about trying to get 

the best facility for our 

kids,” he told the group. “It 

is all about the kids. Our 

program has been built on 

doing things right all the 

time, being respectful to 

your family and playing the 

game hard and respecting 

the game. We have a very 

good program, we have 

great players. I am just so 

excited. I will be starting my 

28th year and I am like a 

rookie again–I can’t wait to 

get out there on the new 

field. Thank you.” 

PHS principal Dr. 

Michael Short presented Mr. 

Leyland with a new photograph 

to be hung at the high 

school.

member. We have an excellent 

relationship with the City of 

Perrysburg’s Police Division 

and are in constant communication 

with its officers. This 

past August, Police Chief 

Daniel Paez addressed the 

entire district staff at our annual 

kickoff meeting about the 

Perrysburg Athletic 

Booster president Dave 

Matolyak recognized two 

former booster board members 

Rick Stoller and Pete 

Allesee. 

“A few years back, these 

two gentlemen inspired the 

board of directors to donate 

more than $250,000 to prepare 

the land for the baseball 

response by the district and 

police to these types of events. 

Last month, the Perrysburg 

Police Division held a training 

session for our bus drivers 

regarding how to handle emergency 

situations. 

“Our administrative team 

met this weekend to review 

our crisis plan and how we 

support teachers and staff in 

talking with students who 

have questions or want to talk 

about the incident. I have also 

had conversations with Perrysburg 

Police Chief Paez about 

the Connecticut tragedy. 

“Despite our best efforts 

and precautions, we cannot 

always keep evil at bay. Our 

best chance of preventing this 

type of violence is to use our 

eyes, ears and voices. When 

students and adults hear and 

see information or troubling 

and softball fields,” he said. 

“If it were not for their passion, 

foresight and time 

devoted to this project, we 

might not be here today.”

“We have a great staff, we have a great 

team–Sandy Hook had that, too. We just have 

to be diligent. We need to create a culture 

where students, community members and parents 

feel comfortable sharing things that they 

see and hear because that really is the best

right.

proclaimed Wednesday, 

December 19, as “Jim Leyland 

Day,” and presented the 

baseball manager with a 

proclamation and commemorative 

coin. 

Mr. Leyland thanked 

everyone for attending the 

dedication. 

“I got a lot of nice gifts 

tonight, but I am still looking 

for my diploma,” he said 

laughingly. “What a wonderful 

day. It means a lot to me 

and my family. You know, it 

is not the size of the donation, 

it is the donation. There were 

a lot of other people besides 

me who reached in their 

pockets and game funds–let’s 

not forget about those people. 

I want to thank all who participated 

in this project and 

what a wonderful baseball 

field it is. It will be great for 

those kids to go out there and 

take the field under Coach 

Hall.

➧Continued from page 1 

At the December 17 meeting 

of the Perrysburg Board 

of Education, Mr. Hosler also 

responded to concerns raised 

by two elementary parents. 

Over the weekend, the 

superintendent met with 

administrators and principals 

to discuss the situation on 

two fronts–communicating 

with the students and safety. 

Mr. Hosler also stated that he 

had several conversations 

with the chief of police during 

the weekend. 

“As a school district, we 

take many precautions to 

make sure our students are 

safe,” he said. “We have a 

protocol in terms of buzzing 

into buildings and video cameras 

in different locations.” 

The administrators also 

discussed other types of contingencies. 

“We talked about an 

intruder on a bus or other 

locations,” said Mr. Hosler. 

“Last month the bus drivers 

had training on how to 

respond and handle that type 

of situation. We do lockdown 

drills during the course 

of the year. 

“But when you have an 

event like Sandy Hook where 

the intruder puts on fatigues, 

wears body armor, has an 

assault rifle and semi-automatic 

handguns, and is intent 

on getting into the 

building–forced his way into 

the building–to do harm, all 

the planning and effort to prevent 

those kinds of things, we 

know that there are those 

kind of circumstances that 

you can’t foresee. 

“We hire excellent teachers. 

We give them the tools to 

be able to respond to those 

things to the best of their ability. 

And they are great problem-solvers. 

And as we listened 

to the situation unfold 

there were teachers hiding 

kids in bathrooms, cupboards 

and closets, I doubt that was 

part of their practice, their 

plans. But yet, we want staff 

to know that by any means 

necessary, we need to protect 

our students and I believe our 

staff would be willing to do 

that.” 

The superintendent added 

the district is working with 

the police division on 

changes or additions to 

school safety–there are many 

contingencies the district 

needs to look at, he stated. 

“I am a parent and when 

you watched the television on 

Friday, the first initial reaction 

is anger and grief. You 

know in the holiest of seasons 

where we are celebrating 

life and all good things, 

how devastating this is,” the 

superintendent told those 

attending the board meeting. 

“And then as a school superintendent, 

you look at this 

and say we have obligations 

to protect 4.800 students and 

we have to do our best in 

every way. We wake up every 

morning thinking about that. 

“We have a great staff, we 

have a great team–Sandy 

Hook had that, too. We just 

have to be diligent. We need 

to create a culture where students, 

community members 

and parents feel comfortable 

sharing things that they see 

and hear because that really is 

the best defense–something 

out there just doesn’t feel 

right. 

“As a parent, I want to 

hear that this will never happen 

here, and I can’t say that. 

But I can say as a superintendent, 

we are going to do 

everything in our power to 

ensure we care for our students.” 

the worst tragedies in our lifetime 

recently at a school in 

Connecticut. And I think that 

is one of the things we have 

to make sure that we get back 

to–this country is built and 

based on family, family traditions 

and family background. 

I don’t think we can 

lose sight of that because 

there are so many people out 

there that don’t like us–we 

can never forget that. 

“Thank you for coming 

from the bottom of my heart. 

I’m sorry about the World 

Series, I really am. Hopefully, 

we will be back next year.” 

More than 200 invited guests attended the dedication including from left, “Doc” 

Thomas, Rick Steinline, Larry Croy and John Welch.

ODOT gives tips for winter driving 

As Ohioans get ready to 

drive in the first possible 

winter storm this season, the 

Ohio Department of Transportation 

(ODOT) warns motorists: 

“In Ice and Snow, 

Take It Slow,” especially on 

interstates and state-maintained 

highways where 

speeds are faster and traffic 

volumes are higher. 

Research shows by the 

time the first winter storm 

hits, most motorists have forgotten 

their safe winter driving 

skills. 

“Because of last year’s 

mild winter, many of Ohio’s 

motorists haven’t driven in 

significant ice and snow in 

about 20 months,” said 

ODOT Director Jerry Wray. 

ODOT will make history 

this winter by being the first 

state in the nation to use 

green-colored strobe lights 

on its snowplow trucks. 

Studies show green lights are 

more easily detected by the 

human eye than other colors. 

The new green lights, along 

with new white lights, will 

be added to the existing 

amber lights creating a color 

combination unique to 

ODOT. 

Drivers also can stay safe 

–whether it’s the first storm 

or last–by following these 

tips: 

•Plan Ahead: Before leaving 

home, find out about 

driving conditions by going 

to ODOT’s premier website 

www.BuckeyeTraffic.org. 

Safe drivers know the 

weather, and their limits. 

Also, follow ODOT on Facebook 

and Twitter. 

•See and be Seen: Remove 

any snow on your vehicle’s 

windows, lights, 

brake lights and signals. 

•Check the Clock: Leave 

plenty of time to reach your 

destination safely. It’s not 

worth putting yourself and 

others in a dangerous situation 

just to be on time. 

•Turn on your Lights: If 

you need to turn on your 

wipers, turn on your headlights. 

It’s the law. 

During last year’s winter 

season, there were 16,167 

winter-related crashes on 

Ohio’s roadways. Ice and 

snow related fatalities on 

ODOT-maintained roads decreased 

by nearly 20 percent– 

from 21 to 17. 

Although crashes on 

ODOT-maintained roads 

make up only 33 percent of 

all snow and ice crashes, in 

the 2011-12 winter season, 

nearly 57 percent of all winter 

driving related fatalities 

occurred on Interstates, U.S. 

Routes and State Routes. 

Way Library will offer 

free introductory workshops 

designed for those who received 

new mobile devices 

for the holiday. Area residents 

are invited to learn how to operate 

their new devices and 

how to use them to get free 

books, audiobooks, and 

movies from the library. 

On Friday, January 4, in 

the first of five special workshops, 

Way Library will host

The Perrysburg High 

School boys basketball 

team warded off a pesky 

Maumee team Thursday 

night to lift their overall 

record to 4-1 and their 

league record to 2-0. 

Perrysburg traveled to 

Maumee to take on their 

league rival in a gym filled 

with two rowdy student 

sections looking for a hard 

fought game. 

The first quarter started 

out with Maumee jumping 

to a 6-2 lead thanks to 

Maumee big man Sam 

Kamer who had two offensive 

rebounds that resulted 

in two inside jumpers to 

give the Panthers the lead. 

Matt Kaczinski narrowed 

the Maumee lead, 

receiving an inbound pass 

from Nick Moschetti on the 

offensive end of the court 

and hitting a three pointer 

with the Maumee student 

section at his back. 

The Jackets and the Panthers 

had six lead changes 

in the first quarter and with 

24 seconds remaining, Perrysburg 

had the ball, a 13- 

12 lead, and was holding 

for the final shot. Bryant 

Byrd took the ball at the 

top of the arc and drove to 

the right side of the lane, 

splitting Maumee’s 3-2 

zone. He then turned and 

kicked it out to Shane 

Edwards, who knocked 

down a three from the top 

of the three point line as 

the buzzer sounded to give 

Perrysburg a 16-13 lead.

Yellow Jackets hold off Maumee 

involved lots of defense 

and scrappy hustle plays 

from both teams but neither 

side could produce a basket. 

Sean McGovern, of the 

Panthers, ended the scoring 

drought by knocking down 

a tough jumper in the lane. 

However, this would be 

one of only two made field 

goals for Maumee in the 

second quarter. 

With four minutes till 

the half, Moschetti received 

a pass from Byrd on the left 

wing and knocked down a 

three pointer to finally get 

the Jackets moving offensively. 

On the following 

possession, Byrd drove to 

the basket and again dished 

to Moschetti who knocked 

down a three in the same 

spot to give Perrysburg a 

22-14 lead with two minutes 

remaining in the quarter. 

Moschetti led the team 

with 12 points in the first 

half, and Perrysburg had a 

28-16 lead. 

In the third quarter, the 

Jackets were outscored 15- 

9 by the Panthers, including 

an 11-0 run led by 

Maumee’s Jason Wanamaker 

who had seven of those 

11 points. 

The beginning of the 

fourth quarter started with a 

Kamer basket underneath 

to bring Maumee within 

four of the Jackets, 37-33. 

Perrysburg brought the 

ball up court looking for 

any form of offense to slow 

down the Panther attack, 

and they found it in the hot 

hand of Moschetti. He

made a three from the wing 

to give Perrysburg life 

again and on the following 

possession, he stroked 

another three from the 

same spot on the right 

wing. Now Perrysbug 

pulled back ahead with a 

10-point lead. 

After watching 

Moschetti make two threes, 

Edwards got in on the fun 

and made one of his own 

from the top of the arc, and 

the Jackets were up 47-35 

with 3:51 remaining. 

Maumee could not make 

up the deficit in the final 

three minutes. Chris 

Schimmoeller helped ward 

off any comeback, adding 

two baskets off two offensive 

rebounds in the lane 

and then picking up a beautiful 

assist, passing the ball 

from the block under the 

basket to Hayden Thomas 

in the lane for a layup and 

14 point lead. 

Nick Moschetti led the 

Jackets with 18 points and 

made key three pointers 

when the team needed 

them. Perrysburg is still 

undefeated in the league 

and will play Perkins next.

Lady Jackets defeat 

Blue Devils 59-35 

By Andy Brungard 

Perrysburg moved to 8-0 

overall and 6-0 in the 

Northern Lakes League 

Tuesday night by defeating 

the Springfield Blue Devils. 

Sara Baer led the Jackets 

with 17 points, followed by 

Alex Brown who had 11. 

Perrysburg won with a 

score of 59-35, thanks in 

large part to a 26-point second 

quarter. 

The game started with 

the Jackets bringing the ball 

up court on the first possession 

and Abby Sattler 

draining a three pointer 

from the wing. Her basket 

was followed by one of 

many Maddy Williams 

steals, who dished to Baer 

under the hoop. Baer 

scored was fouled and converted 

the free throw making 

the score 6-0. 

Springfield responded 

with two long distance 

shots and quickly tied the 

game up at six by converting 

two three pointers. 

Both teams continued to 

be successful on offense 

and at the end of the first 

quarter, the score was 13-9 

Perrysburg. 

To start the second quarter, 

Baer scored off of a 

post move near the basket, 

and then scored again after 

Katie Dunphy stole the ball 

and pushed it up court 

which resulted in a Baer lay 

up. Then on the ensuing 

possession Dunphy 

received a pass on the wing 

and swished a three to put 

the Jackets up 20-9 only 

one minute into the second 

quarter.

Springfield continued to 

fire away from behind the 

arc converting two three 

pointers to end a 7-0 run by 

Perrysburg and pulling 

within five, only down 20- 

15 with four minutes till 

half. That’s when Perrysburg 

responded. Alex 

Brown came off of the 

bench and started battling 

for loose balls, grabbing 

rebounds and added two 

inside jump shots off offensive 

rebounds to spark 

another Perrysburg scoring 

run. 

With one minute until 

half Perrysburg led 35-15. 

Molly Whitacare stole the 

ball at the defensive end 

and took it all the way 

down the court and scored. 

Springfield tried to advance 

the ball up court but Perrysburg’s 

defense held. They 

slowly moved the ball on 

offense waiting to take the 

last shot. It paid off when 

Williams received a pass on 

the baseline and hit a jump 

shot as the buzzer sounded. 

The Lady Jackets now led 

39-16 at the half. 

In the third quarter it 

was Perrysburg’s defense 

that shined, allowing one 

free throw as the Blue Devils 

only point. Through the 

third and fourth quarter 

Springfield played catch 

up, throwing up several 

threes but converting very

and to be inspired by the life 

around them. Prints, photographs 

and illustrated books 

are included in this exhibition 

of artworks produced 

during Manet’s lifetime. Approximately 

120 works by

artists working in the period–including 

Renoir, Corot,

Manet himself–are featured.

Raspberry Swirl Parfaits 

Serves 6 

(2) 10-oz. packages frozen raspberries in light syrup, thawed 

1⁄2 cup walnuts 

3 large eggs 

2 1⁄2 tablespoons sugar 

2 1⁄2 tablespoons honey 

3⁄4 cup well-chilled heavy cream 

Garnish: fresh raspberries 

In a food processor, purée raspberries, including syrup. 

Force purée through a fine sieve into a heavy saucepan, pressing 

hard on solids, and boil purée, stirring occasionally, until 

reduced to about one cup. Cool purée and chill. 

Lightly toast walnuts and cool completely. Chop walnuts. 

Have ready a large bowl of ice and cold water. In a metal bowl 

with a handheld electric mixer, beat together eggs, sugar and 

honey until combined well. Set bowl over a pan of simmering 

water and beat mixture until pale, thick and an instant-read 

thermometer registers 160 F. Set bowl over bowl of ice water 

and beat until cold. In another bowl with cleaned beaters, beat 

cream until it just holds stiff peaks and fold with walnuts into 

egg mixture gently but thoroughly. Alternately spoon raspberry 

purée and cream mixture into six 6-ounce glasses, and 

swirl with a wooden skewer. Freeze parfaits, covered, at least 

eight hours and up to two days. Let parfaits stand at room temperature 

15 minutes before serving. 

Garnish parfaits with raspberries.

Suggestions for making a household emergency supply kit 

The Federal Emergency 

Management Agency encourages 

all households to 

put together a basic disaster 

supplies kit in case of an 

emergency. 

Details are online on the 

Ready.gov website, http:// 

www.ready. gov/basic-disas 

ter-supplies-kit. 

A basic kit should include: 

•Water, one gallon of 

water per person per day for 

at least three days. 

•Food, at least a threeday 

supply of non-perishable 

food. 

•Battery-powered or 

hand crank radio and a 

NOAA weather radio with 

tone alert and extra batteries 

for both. 

•Flashlight and extra batteries. 

•First aid kit. 

•Whistle to signal for 

help. 

•Dust mask to help filter 

contaminated air and plastic 

sheeting and duct tape to 

shelter-in-place. 

•Moist towelettes, 

garbage bags and plastic ties 

for personal sanitation. 

•Wrench or pliers to turn 

off utilities. 

•Manual can opener for 

food. 

•Local maps. 

•Cell phone with chargers, 

inverter or solar charger. 

The Web site also includes 

recommendations for 

families with special needs, 

such as those with an infant 

or older adults. 

For winter preparedness, 

include a set of warm clothing 

with a coat and shoes for 

each person, additional 

sleeping bags or warm blankets, 

and extra personal hygiene 

items. 

“Conditions such as extreme 

cold temperatures, 

above-normal snowfall, ice 

storms, or blizzard conditions 

caused by wind can 

significantly reduce your 

ability to function through 

daily activities,” said Kent 

McGuire, health and safety 

coordinator for Ohio State 

University’s College of 

Food, Agricultural, and Environmental 

Sciences and 

Ohio State University Extension. 

In addition, OSU 

Extension offers free fact 

sheets on freezer safety 

when there’s a power outage 

(http://ohioline.osu.edu/hom 

e/freezer.html) and ideas for 

eating nutritiously when 

there’s no power (http:// ohioline.osu.edu/hyg 

-fact/ 

pdf/emergency_food_pyramid.pdf, 

PDF). 

Finally, Ready.gov also 

offers recommendations for 

winterizing vehicles to prepare 

for driving in inclement 

weather, including updating 

your vehicle’s emergency 

kit with items including a 

shovel, ice scraper, flashlight, 

snack food, water, 

matches and extra hats, 

socks and mittens. 

For details, see 

http://www.ready.gov/win 

ter-weather and click on 

“Winterize Your Vehicle.” 

Select libraries to restore hours 

Keeping its promise to 

Lucas County voters, the 

Toledo-Lucas County Public 

Library Board of Trustees recently 

agreed to restore Sunday 

hours at four library 

locations, beginning January 

6. 

Sanger Branch Library, 

which has been the only location 

open on Sunday for the 

past three years, will continue 

with Sunday hours. 

All five locations, which 

are Main Library, Heatherdowns, 

Oregon, Sanger and 

Sylvania, will be open on Sundays, 

beginning January 6, 

from 1 to 5 p.m. 

The restoration of Sunday 

hours is a direct result of the 

passage of the 5-year, 2.9 mill 

library operating levy on the 

November ballot. 

“We made promises during 

the levy and now it’s time 

to keep those promises,” said 

Library Director Clyde Scoles. 

The library’s administrative 

team and the board of 

trustees also are working to restore 

many weekly and Saturday 

hours. 

“We will not recover all 

lost hours but will offer more 

access to the highest levels of 

library services,” Mr. Scoles 

said, explaining that all new 

hours will be in place by 

March 1. 

Families Behind Bars support 

group announces meeting dates 

A support group has been 

formed for family and friends 

who have someone incarcerated 

in a prison facility. 

Families Behind Bars will 

meet on Mondays, January 7, 

February 4, March 4, April 1, 

May 6 and June 3, at 7 p.m., 

in the meeting room of Waterville 

Library, 800 Michigan 

Avenue, Waterville. 

The group will assist families 

with finding the information 

they need, including: 

visiting schedules, mail and 

package restrictions, telephone 

policies, personal 

funds, policies and restrictions, 

Web site navigation, the 

first 45 days, programs available 

and e-mail options. 

Individuals also can find 

support through others who 

have been through the same 

situation. 

For more information, call 

Carol at 419-350-6619 or 

Joyce at 419-878-5796.

Jim and Joy Ortyl of Perrysburg traveled to eastern Europe 

this summer. They visited the cities of Budapest, 

Krakow, Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Cesky Krumlov and Vienna. 

“All the cities were interesting to see, but we were especially 

impressed by how well the areas bounced back from 

years of oppression–first under Hitler, then Stalin,” said Mrs. 

Ortyl, adding, “Warsaw was practically leveled during the 

war and had to be rebuilt.” 

Above are the Ortyls in front of St. Vitus Cathedral in 

Prague.

Values 

and lessons learned. 

Nearly 400 Toledo Christian 

School supporters and 

fans of NFL football gathered 

at Toledo’s SeaGate Centre 

on December 5 for the 

school’s annual fund-raiser 

banquet, which featured Terry 

Bradshaw. 

A commentator for FOX 

NFL Sports and four-time 

Super Bowl champion quarterback, 

Mr. Bradshaw’s appearance 

at the banquet was 

made possible through a 

speakers bureau, said Kathy 

Woodward, TCS board president 

and Perrysburg resident. 

She said Mr. Bradshaw 

had the choice of whether to 

accept the school’s invitation 

and was thrilled that he chose 

to visit Toledo. 

“We were delighted. He 

was so gracious, and he was 

the real deal,” she added. 

Chrys Peterson of WTOL, 

event emcee, introduced the 

former Pittsburgh Steeler. 

“Terry Bradshaw is truly a 

modern day renaissance man. 

When God was handing out 

talent, he just kept getting in 

line,” she said. 

She noted that he is a perfect 

4-0 in the big game, winning 

Super Bowl’s IX, X, 

XIII and XIV. A two-time 

Super Bowl MVP, he also is a 

Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee. 

But his talents extended 

well beyond the 100-yard 

field of play. 

After retiring from football 

Mr. Bradshaw, already a 

talented singer went on to 

record four albums and author 

five books. He appeared 

in several movies and is the 

only NFL football player to 

have a star on the Hollywood 

Walk of Fame, Ms. Peterson 

said. 

Since 1990, Mr. Bradshaw 

has been a sports commentator, 

first on “The NFL Today” 

and later on “Fox NFL Sunday.” 

“He is truly bigger than 

life and a completely impressive 

individual,” she said, but 

she believes his greatest attribute 

is his “big heart” and 

his desire to reach out and

help others. “He is an instrument 

in God’s hands.” 

Fans, many wearing the 

former quarterback’s #12 jersey, 

broke into applause when 

Mr. Bradshaw took the stage. 

“All things are possible 

with our Lord and Savior,” he 

began. “There’s nothing like 

being knocked down, as long 

as you look up.” 

He believes that with God 

there is guidance. Referring 

to the recent murder/suicide 

involving Kansas City linebacker 

Jovan Belcher, he 

said, “Obviously the young 

man was lost.” 

But being lost does not 

have to lead to tragedy. 

“Amazing things can happen 

when we’re lost, if we walk in 

light as He is in the light.” 

Mr. Bradshaw continued, 

“I’m 64 and happy to be 

alive. It’s amazing the wonderful 

things God has in store 

for us.” 

He believes today’s society 

is filled with too much 

turmoil, misery and chaos. 

“No one cares that there is an 

answer.” 

Mr. Bradshaw pointed out 

that history provides a clue to 

the future. “If you study empires, 

most of their collapses 

came with the decay of their 

values,” and he worries about 

the lack of belief in God. “It’s 

amazing how we can see 

beauty and think it just came 

from an asteroid. We should 

be thankful to be alive.” 

The former quarterback 

enjoys his current career, 

working alongside Jimmy 

Johnson, Howie Long, 

Michael Strahan and Curt 

Menefee. 

“They’re all gorgeous 

people. Howie gets letters 

from women, I get nothing. 

I’m the only single guy, and I 

get nothing, he quipped, 

adding, “It’s a wonderful 

thing.” 

He doesn’t let life get him 

down. “I wake up say amen 

and put a smile on my face.” 

Mr. Bradshaw stresses the 

importance of learning how 

to get along with people, although 

he admits his own 

shortcomings. 

“You’re always going 

have to deal with people. 

How many of you men got 

down on one knee to propose” 

he asked. “Don’t be 

shy. I did it three times,” he 

recalled of his three marriages. 

Although some aspects of 

his personal life didn’t work 

out as he planned, the football 

star has found joy in his relationship 

with God. “Happiness 

changes from moment to 

moment and is based on 

things. Joy can’t be touched. 

It’s there forever.” 

He recalled growing up in 

Louisiana and his earliest 

memories of living on a 40- 

acre cotton and watermelon 

farm. “I’m a southern Baptist 

who grew up following behind 

my grandfather on the 

plow. I remember getting 

electricity and our first light 

bulb. 

He also remembers being 

raised “with a solid foundation 

for the love of Jesus.” 

His mother’s side of the 

family were talented singers 

and gospel music was often 

sung. 

As he got older, Mr. Bradshaw 

discovered he had a 

passion for football. “I don’t 

know why God called me, but 

it’s amazing the transformation 

when you trust Christ as 

your Savior,” he said. 

But although he had a passion 

for football, he lacked 

the same passion scholastically. 

“I flunked the ACT test 

so I went to a small school, 

Louisiana Tech.” 

It was there that his skill 

with the pigskin caught the 

eye of the NFL, and Mr. 

Bradshaw was drafted to play 

for Pittsburgh. 

Reporters, eager to learn 

more about the new prospect, 

began looking into his background. 

After seeing his 

grades and the fact that he 

had lost four jobs, they 

reached a conclusion. “I must 

be stupid,” he said, acknowledging 

that years later he was 

diagnosed with attention 

The Toledo Museum of 

Art will hold its annual Great 

Art Escape between Christmas 

and New Year’s Day, 

December 26 through 30. 

New this year is Swing 

Time on the Peristyle Stage. 

The program on December 

27, at 11 a.m., features the 

film “Swing Time” with Fred 

Astaire and Ginger Rogers, 

whose photograph can be 

seen in the exhibition Made 

in Hollywood: Photographs 

from the John Kobal Foundation. 

After the screening, from 

2 to 3 p.m., participants can 

see a live demonstration and 

take part in instruction by 

award-winning swing dancer 

Paulette Brockington. There 

will be a sign-up sheet at the 

Libbey Court Information 

Desk the day of the program. 

Each day of The Great Art 

Escape offers different programming 

related to the Museum’s 

collection of art. 

There will be storytelling, 

performances in the Great 

Gallery and Peristyle as well 

as mini concerts and drawing 

in the galleries. 

Admission to the Museum 

and all of the activities is free. 

Parking is free for Museum 

members and $5 for nonmembers. 

In addition to the events 

deficit disorder and depression. 

Mr. Bradshaw didn’t think 

of football as a difficult game. 

“I played simple. If a man 

was open, I threw it to him 

and if there was a man in 

front of him, then I threw it a 

littler higher. I called my own 

plays.” 

All that mattered to the 

young quarterback were the 

numbers on the field. “I knew 

the smaller the numbers were 

getting, the better we were 

doing offensively,” he 

quipped. 

And what happened when 

none of his plays seemed to 

be working Mr. Bradshaw 

simply turned to his teammates 

in the huddle and 

asked, “You guys got any 

ideas” 

Looking back, Mr. Bradshaw 

noted that football certainly 

has changed over the 

years. “The most I made was 

$300,000 in a year. Peyton 

Manning is getting $38 million 

over two years and Ben 

Roethlisberger is making $16 

million. “They’ll never come 

talk to you,” he joked. 

Football, although fun, is 

not life, he continued. “Life is 

not a program, dictated 

through an ear piece. We are 

measured by the choices we 

make. God gave us a brain, 

and he gave us a book. I 

chose that book.” 

But even with the book, he 

admits that his decisions have 

not always been the best. 

“I’ve failed many times in 

life. I failed at marriage, but I 

have two gorgeous children, 

Rachel and Erin.” 

He is proud of his daughters 

and the choices they are 

making. 

As for Mr. Bradshaw, he 

continues to work hard at 

being a better person. He told 

occurring, visitors can enjoy 

the Manet: Portraying Life 

and Made in Hollywood exhibitions. 

Tickets per exhibition 

for nonmembers are $8 

for adults, $5 for seniors and 

students or a $12 combination 

ticket also is available. 

Admission is free for members. 

Also part of the week’s activities, 

featured glass artist 

Danny White will be at the 

Glass Pavilion for demonstrations 

along with a presentation 

about his work and how 

he strives to bridge the gap 

between painting and glass. 

Storytelling sessions will 

highlight books that relate to 

works of art in the Museum’s 

collection. Examples include 

“Iggy Peck Architect” by Andrea 

Beaty, which will be 

read near “The Architect’s 

Dream” in Gallery 29B and 

“Art & Max” by David Weisner, 

which will be read in the 

Cloister. 

Detailed information 

about all activities and current 

special exhibitions is 

available online at www. 

toledomuseum.org. 

The Main Museum will be 

open on New Year’s Eve and 

New Year’s Day, from noon 

to 8 p.m. The Glass Pavilion 

will be closed. 

Following is a sample of 

Toledo Christian students that 

“times are never that good, 

but never that bad,” and reminded 

them that, “success 

comes and goes. Stay firmly 

grounded.” 

He closed by recalling the 

story of Thomas, the disciple, 

who doubted that Jesus had 

risen. “We all have moments 

like Thomas. This may be 

your second chance. You can 

doubt or you can believe and 

in that moment of belief your 

life can change. Thomas got 

a second chance and so can 

you. 

“Very few second chances 

come our way. If you have 

problems, set aside your selfish 

pride. Second chances are 

marvelous.” 

And, he ended, “before 

you close your eyes tonight, 

think of one good something 

that happened today.” 

Toledo Christian Schools, 

organized in 1975 is a nondenominational 

school serving 

pre-kindergarten through 

12th grade students in northwest 

Ohio and southeast 

Michigan.
