onLETTER TO THE EDITOR BY KENT HOLLOWAY

CEO, LIFELINE OF OHIOAs I prepared several items for the time capsule (how’s that for waiting until the last minute!) this past Sunday evening, I caught myself reflecting on what our community might look like 50 years hence. And then I started rambling. I believe that Coshocton County will still be a good place to raise a family, safe and free from the influences of our larger urban cities. This is our hope, of course. It is really almost surreal to think 50 years ahead, let alone to write anything about it. . . I find myself wondering will the Buckeyes still be playing football, have they won any more championships? How many coaching changes in the past 50 years? And of course the NCCA basketball tournament now includes 1,019 teams. And there are the silly things, for example, are the Cleveland Indians still in existence, have they yet won a World Series (or the Chicago Cubs for that matter) or have they thrown in the proverbial towel so to speak? How about the Browns, Bengals or Steelers? How have professional sports changed? Who is leading our county? How has government changed? Does local government still exist or has it went the way of some prehistoric beast as perhaps some in the federal government might wish? Is our country still the home of the free and the land of the brave? And what about some of the more mundane things? How much does a fast food burger cost? A gallon of milk? Loaf of bread? A pizza? A can of pop? Or have fast food and sugared drinks been outlawed by

the PC police? See, I told you that we would bring that up from time to time. (The PC thing) Who rules the world? Is it Apple, Google, Facebook or some other company that we hadn’t even heard of in 2012? What about the stock market? Has it reached 20,000?

25,000? Or less? Do we even still use paper money or have we all been implanted with a chip that is read by a scanner and carries our value to society both in monetary terms and otherwise? Hmmm? Scary thought, huh? And while it may cause only a slight tremor in the year 2012, what about our faith? Are we still allowed to profess our faith in the year 2061? In America? Around the world? Keep in mind that in many countries it is already dangerous - even life threatening - to profess that you are a Christian. Where are we on technology? Vehicles? Do they run on gasoline, alcohol, cane sugar, grease, toothpaste or corn flakes? Or have we all switched to hovercraft? You just never know. What about our farmers and agriculture? How many bushels of corn per acre are our farmers able to harvest to feed the world’s nearly 10 billion people? That is our estimate. A search on the internet found several conflicting theories. Surprise, huh? Some predict that the world population will fall after 2060 and some predict that it will reach a ceiling in 2040 and then decline. Nevertheless, I do know that all of this future thinking has made me hungry. It’s time for a Klondike© bar. Hope those are still around!

Celebrating Life

Butterflies are self propelled flowers. ~R.H. Heinlein

Memorable Quotes

You may know that April is Donate Life Month, a nationwide observance to reflect on the importance of organ and tissue donation. But the donation community is not alone in calling April our own. April is also Grilled Cheese Month, home to National Library Week and includes fun holidays like International Pillow Fight Day and Scrabble Day. It would seem that every day is cause to celebrate, and I couldn’t agree more. I’m in the business of celebrating life. In the organ and tissue donation community, we regularly see lives cut too short. But we have the opportunity to help families celebrate the lives and legacies of their loved ones by sharing the Gift of Life. We are so thankful for second chances organ and tissue donors afford to transplant recipients everywhere; and we celebrate their lives every day. We are inspired by the renewed spirit for life we see in transplant recipients, and they teach us to live every day to the fullest. You can join me in celebrating life this April by making the choice to register as an organ and tissue donor. Just one donor has the potential to save eight lives through organ donation and enhance 50 more through tissue donation. You can register or learn more by visiting www.lifelineofohio.org. Whether you commemorate Donate Life Month this April or decide to observe World Penguin Day by visiting your local zoo, I hope you’ll take time to celebrate life this month!

Coshocton Opportunity School students to present art show BY BETH SCOTTStudents at the Coshocton Opportunity School have been working on beautiful and meaningful art projects in preparation for their Art Show and Reception which will be at the Civic Hall on Main Street Friday, April 27 from 5 – 7 p.m. About 12 students meet at the Coshocton High School for an hour each week to work on their projects. In addition to drawing and painting, the students have also been working on sculptures at the JVS. “I like to draw and everything and then we go to the JVS and I weld a whole bunch of projects and stuff together for art,” said Trevor Keith, student. “Right now I’ve got four projects at the JVS.” He’s built a nine-foot alligator that took six days, an owl, a tree, and a giraffe. Joan Staufer, art instructor, said that although the students work on their projects individually, the students help and encourage each other.

“This group is so motivated,” she said. “It’s about the experience. It’s about the healing power of art.” In addition to working on their projects, the students are also making shoes for toddlers to donate to First Step Family Violence Intervention. “I like that we can just talk about anything, be open and not be judged or anything,” said Ruth Boyles, student. “We do art about how we feel and our emotions and we don’t get like a project that we have to do. It’s something that we enjoy doing. We just put our life into it.” Staufer said she would like to thank Elise Miller for providing the Civic Hall for the show and Shara Prindle from the Frame Shop for donating supplies. The art show will be on the third floor of the Civic Hall and will be open by appointment through May 10.

Coshocton Canal Quilters host 25th anniversary quilt show CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACONThe Coshocton Canal Quilter’s 25th annual quilt show will be held Friday through Sunday, May 4-6. The club is excited to be celebrating 25 years as a guild and would love to share its love of quilting with everyone. At this years’ event there will be some new ideas on display along with the usual and more familiar happenings from shows in the past. As usual, there will be more than 125 quilted items on display. Categories include wall-hangings, bed quilts, baby quilts, lap quilts and home décor. The raffle of the Opportunity Quilt is planned for 3 p.m. Sunday, May 6. This year it is a beautiful silver, white and black queen size quilt. It is a traditional block quilt with a contemporary flavor. The tickets are one for $1 or six for $5. A vendors’ mall with a lot of goodies for sale will be set up. There will be embroidery, fabric, notions, kits, wool goods, books and much more. The “Bed Turning” this year will be an exhibit of the “first quilt a guild member ever made.” The quilts could range in age from 25 years old to one year old. A special addition this year is an exhibit of quilts as a result of a challenge between the local guild and the Zanesville guild, who are

also celebrating their 25th anniversary this year. The challenge was to use a recognizable piece of glittery silver fabric in a quilt no larger than 625 square inches. Just a few examples are: A teddy bear (made from log cabin blocks), circular quilts, an athletic themed quilt and a patriotic quilt. There also will be a store that will be selling hand-made items made from fabric by local guild members, a cookbook of recipes and quilting tips that will be on sale at the show and a limited menu concession stand. Admission is $5. The show will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. May 4-5, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 6, at Agents Realty Auction Gallery, 23024 CR 621 in Coshocton. For information, visit www.sites.google.com/site/coshoctoncanalquilters, where you will find information about the local guild, a picture of the Opportunity Quilt, a map of the area and directions to the show. The Coshocton Canal Quilter’s meet at 6:30 p.m. the first Tuesday of every month in the Roscoe United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall. Anyone interested in quilts or quilting is welcome to attend. The 125 member organization strives to be a philanthropic and educational organization with a mission of preserving the historical significance and the promotion of quilting as an art form.

Spring into the Village in Roscoe adds new event BY BETH SCOTTWhat better way to celebrate the spring season than in Roscoe Village during the annual Spring into the Village weekend, May 4 and 5. Stroll down the streets of Roscoe and enjoy wine and cheese tastings at Uncorked and Medbery Marketplace, street musicians performing from 5 – 8 p.m. Friday night with all money raised going to First Step Family Violence Intervention Services, and sales and discounts from all Roscoe Village businesses. Every shop in Roscoe is participating and will have extended hours until 9 p.m. “It’s just a time for all the businesses to kind of get cleaned up and decorated and ready for the spring and summer seasons,” said Ed Kiefer, owner of Kiefer’s Florist and chairman of Spring into the Village. But all the fun doesn’t just happen on Friday night. Saturday starting at 5 p.m., grab your girlfriends and cruise the village together during Coshocton’s first Girls’ Night Out event, spearheaded by Jane Johnson of Shaker House Antiques. Millersburg has had a similar event each February for the last three years and after Johnson moved her business to Roscoe Village from Millersburg, she wanted to bring the event to Roscoe. “It’s been a really fun event in Millersburg and it’s been such a fun event when women can get together and shop and see all the new stores,” said Johnson. “We thought it would be a good exposure for Roscoe Village. We want to see this event be good for Roscoe.” After a few local Roscoe businesses participated in Girls’ Night Out in Millersburg last February, they all agreed with Johnson and decided to make Girls’ Night Out a part of Spring into the Village. “That night is kind of when we got to know each other,” said Johnson. “We are all connected and they could see how this event could go like wildfire.” Throughout the evening, there will be sidewalk sales, live music, a comedy club at the Warehouse Steak n’ Stein, and musical entertainment at Uncorked until midnight. There will be giveaways, prize baskets, and door prizes totaling over $600. Each store in Roscoe is participating. “I think the neat thing is that all the shops and all the businesses are participating in one way or another,” said Kiefer. “My rose supplier is donating pink roses to me and I’m going to do those up some in corsages and some in wrap roses and we’re going to ask for a donation on that, and that’s going to the Susan B. Koman Foundation for the Cure.” Each woman will be given a punch card and will need to visit each store in the village to have their card punched and entered into a drawing. “I just really hope that it’s something that will be an annual event,” said Johnson. Johnson also would like to thank A.J. Stipes and Gretchen Boson, both of Shaker House

Antiques, for helping her organize Girls’ Night Out. Area sponsors for Spring into the Village are Roscoe Village Business Association, Super8 Motel, Roscoe Merchants, Uncorked Wine and Bar, Roscoe Hillside Cabins, Home Loan Savings Bank, Jacob Vanaman Insurance, and Coshocton Village Inn and Suites. “I love walking through the Village in the evening,” said Kiefer. “I think it’s a great time. So I think it’ll just be a nice atmosphere, but really, all the businesses are just really excited about this promotion.”

1952May 1st, 1952

The first woman to ever operate a bus for the Coshocton City Bus Lines said she loved her work. Mina Hall had responded to an ad placed by owner of the bus line, Paul J. Freehill, that said he wanted a woman bus driver. Mina was thrilled when she got the job, saying she enjoyed it so much more than working at a factory where she had previously been employed. Mina’s outfit consisted of a dark skirt, a gray shirt, and necktie. She drove the bus for nine hours a day, six days a week. Mina said she never got tired after a hard day’s work and she enjoyed meeting the public first-hand.

1962April 29th, 1962

C. F. “Bill” Herman had announced the opening of his new shop on Pine Street, Coshocton Tire and Retreading Company. The shop featured the latest in tire retreading equipment manufactured by the Super Mold Corp. in California. Mr. Herman said the shop would be capable of turning out 30-35 recapped tires a day and that tire molds would be available for 14 passenger and truck sizes. Herman also announced that the B.F. Goodrich Silvertown tread design and quality rubber materials would be used and the products would carry a one-year road hazard guarantee. An official open house of the new shop was to be announced later.

1972April 29th, 1972

For the first time ever in Coshocton County Future Farmers of America history, a local high school had qualified at the state level to compete at nationals. For the past five years, River View FFA had placed in the top 10 at state, but that year, they came in at fifth place out of 350 chapters in Ohio, which qualified them for the national competition. Only the top six in state qualify. Among the achievements were having six first place teams in seven contests at the 43rd annual State Vocational Agriculture Judging contest in Columbus.

1982April 25th, 1982

If you’re looking for a special gift, then The Old Towne was the new place in town to find it. Formerly The Old Towne Drive-In, The Old Towne had been remodeled to accommodate its new gift shop featuring musical items and gifts. The new store offered music boxes, hand-carved Anri collectibles, and musical characters from Walt Disney, Beatrix Potter, and Peanuts, as well as other items. Although just the interior was remodeled, the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Alva Hardesty, hoped to remodel the exterior in the future as well as expand the building to include a large selection of unfinished furniture.

It’s almost time to bid on chamber auction itemsBY JOSIE McCORMICK

It’s almost time to start placing your bids for items available in the 30th annual Chamber Online Auction. Items are available for viewing at www.coshoctonchamber.com or you can come to the Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce office on Main Street to see a specific item. Bidding starts Monday, April 30 and concludes at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 5. “Bidding is online only and has been for the past few years,” said Billie Wilson, executive assistant at the chamber. “This is the 30th year for the auction and there have been many changes

over the years. The locations have changed and the way we bid has changed. People used to be able to call in with their bids and actually bid in house. I think each year we try to find ways to make the auction more convenient for everyone and so far I think it has gone well. We still seem to have the same amount of people participate in the auction each year.” There are roughly 200 to 250 items available for the public to bid on. “We get a wide variety of items donated from gift certificates to furniture, electronics to tools,” Wilson said. The chamber is especially excited to again have the Wienermobile Peddle car donated by Kraft Foods. “It is displayed in the chamber window and it’s fun to see all the people stop by and comment on it,” Wilson said. “We also have a La-Z-Boy recliner from Wilson’s Carpet & Furniture, and a lot of really nice gift certificates. It means a lot to know that each year we have at least 250 businesses that support the chamber of commerce and at the same time they are supporting each other which is so important.” Sponsors also help make the event a success. Coshocton Memorial Hospital and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield are Dream Sponsors and the regular sponsors include: Taylor Insurance & Financial Services, MFM Building Products, Buckeye Fabric/Excello Fabric, Coshocton Tribune Media and the Coshocton County Beacon. The chamber also is thankful to have the help of Peddicord Rice Auction Realty. “They have donated the use of their auction website this year,” Wilson said. Solicitors also make the auction possible. “We have a great group of people that have worked hard to go to each of the businesses to get all of our donations,” Wilson said. Money raised from the auction helps the chamber with general operating expenses. “This has helped over the years to keep us from needing to raise chamber membership dues,” Wilson said.

Clary Gardens offers volunteer opportunitiesClary Gardens is in its early stages of development which makes for an exciting time to get involved and make an impact on the garden. The Garden invites the public to pitch in and join the Volunteer Program. Volunteers help transform the garden into an inspiring, relaxing and educational landscape that will grow for decades to come. You do not have to be a gardening expert to volunteer; beginners are always welcome. And there are many ways to volunteer beyond routine garden maintenance, such as helping with workshops, weddings, and events like the Taste for Summer Wine & BBQ Festival on Saturday, May 19. A new addition to the volunteer program this year is the Coshocton County OSU Master Gardener Volunteers. The Master Gardener Volunteers chose Clary Gardens’ volunteer

program as one of their projects for 2012. A few of them will be helping to grow the program by providing educational opportunities—“how to” demonstrations—to the volunteers, such as proper techniques for pruning, planting, and much more. The time and dates for the 2012 Volunteer Program are from 8:30 - 10 a.m. Saturdays, April 28, May 12, and May 26, June 23 This dates are tentative and will depend on rose bloom times, Sept. 1 and 29, and Oct. 13. It is not mandatory to attend all of the work sessions to be part of the program; any help is appreciated. Visit www.clarygardens.org for a complete and printable schedule as well as the 2012 Volunteer Application. For further questions, call 622-6524. Clary Gardens is located at 588 W. Chestnut St. in Coshocton near Roscoe Village (S.R. 541 W.)

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACONChrista Walsh receives Stella’s Calling Award

Christa Walsh was recently recognized for receiving the Stella’s Calling Award during an award ceremony at Interim Healthcare. She was presented the award by Tom DiMarco, President/CEO Salo, Inc. the management company for Interim Healthcare. The award is named after Stella May Brown Weaco, a homeless person in Boston. People who knew Stella testify to a life of dignity, kindness, profound politeness and consequence from a destitute street person. She had an amazingly positive impact on every person she met. It was uplifting to be in her presence. For 26 years, she was a regular at the Women’s Lunch Place, a daytime shelter for Boston’s poor and homeless women. Stella passed away on New Year’s Eve 2008. Her legacy is that she

exemplified the power and spirit of giving and the extraordinary importance of human kindness. She was about grace and dignity. She taught that grace and dignity are not a function of wealth or power. They come from within. Stella probably never knew the immeasurable impact that she had on people. It just happened. A tribute to Stella May Brown Weaco was read on the Senate floor by the

late Senator Ted Kennedy and her memory is officially part of the Jan. 8, 2009 Senate record. In honoring Stella and those like her, Interim Healthcare established the Stella’s Calling Award. The criteria to receive this award are simple. The recipient must have previously been recognized for an act of caring behavior. It encompasses any act of compassion. Cindi Harriman, branch manager of the local office said that the selection process is difficult because there are so many people in the organization who could be the recipient because of their acts of kindness. This notoriety seldom is noticed let alone celebrated. Christa was recognized and received this award for her act of compassion. After witnessing an accident, she stopped and went immediately to the rescue. She could see that an elderly man and two other people were trapped in the car. She attempted to keep the elderly man conscious, holding his head in an upright position so he could breathe, all the while talking with him and consoling him. Unfortunately he died on the way to the hospital. The other two passengers were comforted until help arrived. Christa acted quickly and efficiently in taking charge of the situation. It is because of her heroic actions that Christa received this prestigious award. In addition to the award, a donation was presented to the local food bank in her name. Christa is the Transitional Care Coordinator for Interim Healthcare and has been actively

involved in the care of their patients for the past two and a half years. Interim Healthcare is the nation’s largest homecare provider and has local offices in Coshocton and New Philadelphia. For information, contact 877-759-2106.

The Coshocton Hospital registered nurses association decided to make the Hope Clinic the benefactor of their community service project this year. The group, represented by Jackie Mason and Hillari Manter, presented a $500 check to the Hope Clinic during a brief ceremony

last week. Mason said, “We sold

ultimate cloths as our fundraiser and we raised $500. This is something we wanted to do to give back to the community. The Hope Clinic is just wonderful for our community. It’s 4 p.m. and there are people already waiting. My family has

used the facility and they just sing the praises of it.” Hillari Manter was the largest seller of the ultimate cloths (a microfiber cloth that cleans without leaving streaks), and said, “This is wonderful. I’ve not been here before. I volunteered at the Hope Clinic when it was at the Career Center and it’s very nice. I’m just glad to be able to help.” Debbie Johnson, speaking on behalf of the Hope Clinic, said, “What a great blessing this check is. Every little bit helps and it goes to such a wonderful cause. Every time that we have a need, God provides and again, he has provided with this check. We are so appreciative.” The Hope Clinic has now served 2,452 patients with 781 patients seeking ministry in the prayer room and 1,564 patients submitting prayer requests. As of April 12, the clinic’s 180 volunteers have logged 12,504.25 hours. The all volunteer staff of the clinic has returned $385,137 worth of service to the community since opening the doors to the community on Sept. 10, 2009.

BY BETH SCOTTRiver View High School to present ‘Fiddler on the Roof’For the past few months, the cast and crew of the River View High School drama club have been learning a lot about Jewish tradition and religion while rehearsing for their upcoming musical, ‘Fiddler on the Roof’. Originally opening on Broadway in 1964, this Tony award-winning musical will make its way to the River View stage on May 4 and 5 at 7:30 p.m. “In my entire career, it’s been my favorite musical,” said Director Debbie English. “I saw it when I was younger and I fell in love with it. It was marvelous.” English has been stressing the importance of Jewish history and understanding their religious symbolism, which plays a big part in understanding the musical. The cast has tried to stay as authentic as possible to the original play and to Jewish tradition with yahmicas and prayer shawls. They’ve also been working on their Jewish/Russian accents, and through learning more about the Jewish history, the actors are able to portray and understand their characters better. There are 61 students involved in the musical with a total of 90 people involved, including teachers, parents, and community members, helping to build and paint the sets, and playing in the orchestra. “Two of the three people who are building the sets don’t even have kids in the musical,” said English. “They are dedicated to the students and for the program to continue to help with scenery without having kids in the musical.” The overall theme of the musical is how one Jewish family tries to accept the ever-changing world they are living in. The play is set in 1905 and revolves mostly around a poor milkman named Tevye and his family. Although it is the tradition for young men and women to be matched for marriage by a matchmaker, Tevye’s three oldest daughters defy tradition and fall in love with men of their own choosing. This upsets Tevye and his wife Golde, especially when their daughter, Chava chooses to marry a Christian Russian man. Tevye disowns her and, although she tries to make up with her father, Tevye never speaks with her again. When the Jews are then

expelled from their home by the Russians, the family splits and each go their own separate ways. In the River View production, Tevye will be played by Nathan Shutt, Golda will be played by Liv Kittner, the three eldest daughters will be portrayed by Alexis Spiecher, Bethany Anglin, and Kendall Meek, and the three men will be portrayed by Ethan Widder, Zack Pessia, and Jake Norris. “These are very demanding roles,” said English, “and there are a lot of good musicians in this class, and it’s just the right time to do it. I’ve always wanted to do this. I’m very excited. It’s a wonderful musical and it has wonderful songs.” English said the biggest challenge that the students have faced while rehearsing the play has been understanding the symbolism, tradition, and the emotions behind the dialogue. “There’s a lot of humor in this show, but it’s not a comedy,” she said. “The depth of this musical is so much more. One of the challenges is understanding the depth of what’s going on.” English said that although the audience will no doubt love the whole play, the scenes where the entire cast is on stage dancing will be a real crowd pleaser. “A lot of the music is really upbeat and just having everyone on the stage dancing is really enjoyable,” she said. Even though most productions of the musical have the fiddler hidden in the orchestra pit, English has chosen for the fiddler to be present on stage. The fiddler, however, is not a student from River View High School, but is the nephew of Dawn Anglin, teacher at the High School, and has a real talent for playing the fiddle. He was visiting here from North Carolina when auditions were held and when he played his fiddle for English, she knew she had her fiddler for Fiddler on the Roof. He will be flying in from North Carolina the last week before the play begins to rehearse with the cast members. The fiddler himself is a symbol for change in the play after the line, “Without traditions, we would be like a fiddler on the roof.”

BY JAN MYERSCoshocton Community Choir to ‘Shout On’‘Shout On’ is the theme of the Coshocton Community Choir’s Spring Concert at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 29. More than 200 musicians from throughout central Ohio come together to perform in this annual concert held at Coshocton High School’s McKinley Auditorium. Musical selections during the 90-minute concert span the centuries as the choirs perform a mix of sacred and secular choral music. The concert features the 100-voice adult choir, the Coshocton Children’s Choir, the Coshocton Youth Chorale and the Roscoe Brass Ensemble. All three choirs were founded and are conducted by Charles R. Snyder. Snyder says his inspiration for the concert’s theme this year comes from a phrase from the refrain of an early American song, I Know that My Redeemer Lives. “In one setting I remember, the arranger called his work “Shout On!” Snyder said. “We’re including a new setting of that song in our spring concert in addition to several other Early American tunes. Perhaps more important

however, after our 40th anniversary last season I thought it was a way of saying, ‘And we’re not finished. We’re going to keep on singing!’” The Coshocton Community Choir will also premier a new composition at this concert. “It was written by our friend, Columbus composer Garry A. Cornell,” said Snyder. “The piece was commissioned by the Community Choir some months ago in memory of my mother, Evelyn Snyder. Mr. Cornell incorporated Children of the Heavenly Father, one of Mom’s favorite hymns, as part of the piece.” Snyder feels the audience will also enjoy a new choral setting of Jesus Loves Me, and a Moses Hogan arrangement of the spiritual, I Want Jesus to Walk With Me. “We know there will be some toe tapping in the audience when we sing Keith Hampton’s gospel song, Praise His Holy Name,” added Snyder. “And all three choirs will join pianist Dickie Barrick and the Roscoe Brass Quintet in John Rutter’s arrangement of the spiritual, When the Saints Go Marching In, and the audience will be invited to join in singing the final chorus.” This concert will also celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Coshocton Youth Chorale – the high school contingent of the Community Choir family, and the 25th anniversary of the Coshocton Children’s Choir, a regional ensemble for young singers in grades four

through eight. In honor of the 25th anniversary of the Children’s Choir, Snyder has programmed some songs that have been

favorites of the singers over the years. Children’s Choir alumni will be invited to join in singing two traditional songs at the conclusion of their part in the concert. The Youth Chorale will celebrate their anniversary at their traditional finale on Friday, May 18 at Roscoe United Methodist Church. The Coshocton Community Choir is now is it 41st season, and has commissioned several arrangements from well-known composers. The Choir has performed throughout the state and has again been invited to perform on the prestigious concert series at Lakeside on Lake Erie this August in Hoover Auditorium, which will be their fifth appearance there. Tickets for the “Shout On” Spring Concert at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 29, are $10 for adults and $5 for students and are available at the door.

Bill and Mary Timmons have been a team for more than 61 years. Together they’ve raised four daughters, ran a successful business and given back to the community in numerous ways. They were honored for their contributions during the 30th annual Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce dinner when they received the Coshoctonian Award. The dinner held April 20, at Lake Park Pavilion, also included the presentation of the Coshocton County Employee of the Year, Small Business of Year and Young Leader of the Year awards. The Coshoctonian Award was presented to the Timmons by Robin Coffman. “The Coshoctonian award recognizes an individual’s ‘long term contribution to the well-being and economic climate of the community,’” Coffman said. “The recipient must be a resident of Coshocton County. It is not the ‘Coshoctonian of the Year’ award; rather it recognizes the totality of a person’s contribution to our community during his or her lifetime. There have been no posthumous awards.” Bill was born and raised in Coshocton and Mary is from Washington, Pa. The couple met on a blind date while Bill was attending The Ohio State University and Mary was enrolled at Ohio Wesleyan. “When they first returned (to Coshocton), he (Bill) began working for his father in his business, and then, later co-founded along with his wife, the business that they still own and run, and they have run it for nearly 50 years, and are a beloved couple to their employees,” Coffman said in his speech. They also have given time and money to a variety of organizations that impact numerous people’s lives. “They have, either directly or through their family trust, given support to The Coshocton Foundation, Coshocton County Memorial Hospital, the Coshocton Animal Shelter and Four Paws, both monetary and by gifts of food and supplies, and the occasional taking in of

strays for temporary shelter,” Coffman said. “And the list keeps on growing – The Women’s Shelter, again with money as well as supplies. The husband has donated many items and his wife many photographs, some of which have been displayed, to the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum. They have given money to Central Ohio Technical College, the Coshocton Presbyterian Church where the husband served as a trustee, to the local Salvation Army where the husband currently is on the board of trustees, to Kno-Ho-Co Head Start, to the Coshocton Redskins tennis team and high school band, the community choir, the local Coshocton Footlight Players, the Roscoe Foundation, the animal shelter – both monetary, food and supplies, to Four Paws, again with both money and supplies, the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum with money and items – the husband with a World War II army helmet and the wife with photographs by her and her father-in-law. Whew, what a list - but that is not all.” Bill, who served in the Army, also initiated the idea of the Coshocton County KIA (Killed in Action) bridge project. “He worked with local veteran groups to find a person who lived nearest to the bridge to honor his sacrifice by naming the bridge for that person - a very magnanimous gift to our community and an honor to the person and family of the one named,” Coffman said. “It’s just another way that he quietly works for the veterans of our community.” The couple also cares about the personal lives of their employees at Yankee Wire Cloth Products and has been known to give them time off during bad weather, visited them after surgery and the birth of babies and even checked up on employees who have been feeling ill. Coffman was honored to present the Timmons with their award. “On behalf of our entire community, I want to express our appreciation for what you have

unityBY BETH SCOTT‘Unusual Places’ is theme for this year’s Dogwood Festival

Springtime in Coshocton is always beautiful with blossoms coming out on the trees and flowers blooming in the court yard, and to celebrate the beauty of our town, the Pomerene Center for the Arts is once again sponsoring the 27th annual Dogwood Festival May 4 - 12. Although all the dogwood blossoms will be gone by the time of the festival due to the early spring we’ve had this year, the Dogwood Festival still promises to have activities that the whole family can enjoy. “Obviously, the Dogwoods are going to be passed by then,” said Anne Cornell, director at the Pomerene Center for the Arts. “So the man who took care of the house and grounds for a long time, Dick Randall, who is now deceased, used to put dogwood streamers up. We no longer do that, but I have all of those, so I’m thinking we ought to decorate the trees. So I’m looking for a team to decorate them.” To volunteer to help decorate the trees at the Pomerene Center or for more information about that, call Anne at 622-0326. In preparation for the festival, log on to the Pomerene Center for the Arts’ Facebook page and submit a photo of you or a friend in an ‘unusual place’ in Coshocton County. “The theme this year is ‘In Unusual Places’ so on our Facebook, we’re asking for submissions of photos that you take of yourself or somebody else in an unusual place in Coshocton with the intension of highlighting ourselves as the unusual community we are,” said Cornell. There is a $200 cash prize for the best photo submitted. The deadline to submit your photo is Thursday, May 3. The Dogwood Festival kicks off with the 25th annual Canal Quilters Show entitled, “Silver Ties that Bind”. The show will continue throughout the weekend and will begin Friday at 10 a.m. at the Agents Realty and Auction Service building. The cost to enter is $5. The public can view these homemade quilts Friday and Saturday, May 4 - 5 from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. and Sunday, May 6 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. In connection with the quilt show, Amy Rich from Indiana will be at the Pomerene Center on Saturday and Sunday, May 5 – 6, from 1 – 5 p.m. speaking about art inspired by quilts and quilt-making. “She does a lot of textile work and so there’s a quilting component to it,” said Cornell, “but it’s art inspired by quilts and quilt-making with things collected at thrift stores and closets. She uses some dried vegetables and nature. She incorporate things that carry memories of things that once were, where they have come from, and who have touched them. So I think that’s a really nice compliment to the quilter’s show and also tied in to the little histories that we have about the quilt barn squares.” This year, the Dogwood Festival is also highlighting the expansion of the Coshocton County Heritage Quilt Barn Trail. This event is free and maps may be picked up at the Coshocton

Canal Quilters Show. Mercantile on Main will also be getting in on the quilt square fun and will be painting a quilt square to be displayed on the building next to Mercantile, identifying it as the quilt shop in Coshocton. Be sure to help kick off the Dogwood Festival at the first First Friday of the season on Main Street. There are many fun events happening at First Friday including huge bamboo weaving bubbles by Tony Bible, and at the SOTA building, Russell Merritt will be working with the teens from the Animanga Library group and the River View Junior High art team to create anime art in the windows. They will be working inside the building so that people walking by can watch them create their art. There will also be chalk murals on the side of downtown businesses created by local artists. The business must first give their permission before the art can be created. “For First Friday, in the Park Space, we’re going to have a European Techno Music Club on Friday night,” said Cornell. “Kyle Shepler who was a River View graduate was back in the community for a little bit after he graduated from Akron, and he’s a DJ and his favorite music is European Techno music, and he says he never gets a chance to play it. So, just with the ‘Unusual’ theme and that we have a European Techno Disco Club out on Main Street just qualifies us as an unusual place. We’re really excited about that. It should be really fun.” For music lovers, Dr. Paul Barte will be presenting music by J.S. Bach on May 6 at 3 p.m. at the Presbyterian Church. Dr. Barte will not only be performing the music and dressing as Bach, but will also be playing on the church’s tracker organ. “There’s a tracker organ which was built for that church,” said Cornell. “It’s really unusual to have this style of organ. It’s like when you press

the key, you are opening the stop, so it’s much more athletic to play. Dr. Paul Barte is coming and he’s going to dress up as J.S. Bach and he’s going to play a Bach concert, because this is that kind of period organ.” Also on that day will be the Mommy and Me Hike at Clary Gardens from 10 a.m. – Noon. The event will begin with a hike in The Woodlands to see the dogwood trees in bloom, if the blossoms hold off for that long. At the end of the hike, there will be a craft tying into the Festival and in preparation for Mother’s Day. The last day of the Festival, May 12, don’t miss the Dogwood Festival Gala Dinner at the Pomerene Center at 6 p.m. The dinner will be catered by Mike Cichron and the students from the Coshocton County Career Center Culinary Arts program. Hi-Fi Rendezvous will be performing jazz music and Larry Pew of Warsaw will perform his illusionist act. The event will be under the tent at the Center and is a fundraiser for the Pomerene Center. Most of the foods used in the dinner will be locally-grown. “Last year and this year, we’re using mostly local foods, so meats are local, vegetables, everything we can,” said Cornell. “We did really well last year and it was a delicious meal.” After dinner, the Triple Locks Theatre will present “The 25th Annual Putnum County Spelling Bee” at 8 p.m. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for students. There will also be the traditional lunches at the Court Square from 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. throughout the festival. The new rain place for the lunches this year will be at the Pomerene Center instead of the Presbyterian Church. Local schools will provide entertainment and local restaurants will cater the lunches. Check out page 11 for a complete Dogwood Festival schedule.

WILDFLOWER WALK OSU Extension sponsored Wildflower Walk on April 7 at Clary Gardens. Tammi Rogers, OSU Extension Coshocton County, introduced 15 participants to about 20 different spring wildflowers found on the Woodland Trail. The walk was free of charge, but donations to Clary Gardens were accepted. Partici-pants also learned to identify the invasive weed, garlic mustard. They helped eradication efforts by pulling several bags of the invasive weed throughout the trail. Another walk is scheduled for April 28 at 10 a.m. as long as the spring weather holds.

D&D opens headquarters on Orange Street

The thought of retirement had popped into Dale Dovenbarger’s mind, but that thought is gone now that he opened D&D Headquarters LLC on Orange Street, the home of his roofing and construction business. “I always wanted a building and now that I have one I’m not going to retire,” he said. “It’s good for the kids too since this is a family owned business.” Dovenbarger held an open house April 20, at his headquarters, which he built from the ground up. “You can come in here, look at what we have and talk to the girls,” he said. “We can do everything from dog boxes to building a house.” His staff also can offer guidance through the process of your remodeling projects. “A lot of people today don’t have the money to build new homes so we can help you fix things

up, remodel or add on,” Dovenbarger said. He had several new and potential customers come through his doors in just the first couple of hours of the open house. “It’s going great,” he said. “We’ve had a good turn out and been real busy. Dovenbarger picked up about 10 to 15 new projects by lunchtime. “Several others said they would get a hold of us later,” said Dawn Anderson, a sales associate with the business and one of Dovenbarger’s daughters. During the open house visitors were treated to refreshments, had the chance to enter a drawing for a variety of prizes and see the businesses display models. Dovenbarger’s business includes his two daughters, two sons, a stepdaughter and a son-in-law. “You get to meet new people and get new projects every day,” said Dixie Glazer, who use to work in the field with her dad but is now a sales associate. Dovenbarger has been in the construction business since 1980. “I love to work and have to stay busy,” he said. Anderson also said her father has a great reputation for his work. “He is well respected around here,” she said. Karen Dovenbarger, Dale’s wife and half owner in the business also said D&D is very particular about its work. “He will clean up as he goes,” she said. Dale already had two people ask him to come update work he did for them years ago. “We got two jobs where they want us to redo what I did 25 years ago for them,” he said. [email protected]

NEW BUSINESS Ci-ara Adkins, Dixie Glazer, Dawn Anderson, Karen Dovenbarger and Dale Dovenbarger take a break from their open house for a picture out-side the new headquar-ters for D&D Roofing and Construction.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15done for all of us over the years, and for all your future achievements,” he said. “You have earned our respect and admiration.” Mary was very surprised by the award. “I didn’t see this coming,” she said. “We almost didn’t come tonight.” Bill praised his hometown after accepting the Coshoctonian Award with his wife. “All I can say is Coshocton might not be the largest or greatest place, but as far as I’m concerned it’s home,” he said. Earlier in the evening Debbie Kempf and Bryan West received Coshocton County Employee of the Year awards. Kempf is an ultrasound technician at Coshocton County Memorial Hospital. “She treats all patients as if they are family and always takes the extra step to provide excellent patient care,” said Todd Brown, a Coshocton Rotary Club member who read Kempf’s nomination to the crowd and presented her award. Kempf was excited to receive the award. “I am very honored and blessed to be chosen for this award,” she said. “I also want to thank my parents Max and Nancy Lingo for the work ethic they instilled in me.” The second recipient of the award, West, also works in the health care field. He is a home health aide at Health Services of Coshocton County. “He is well liked by clients and staff and keeps the needs of his clients in the forefront,” said Brown while reading West’s nomination. West became interested in health care after his late mother was assisted by Hospice. “I feel good and I think my mom would be proud of me,” he said. The Small Business of Year award was presented to Joe and Angie Miller of Woodbury Outfitters. “They turned a mom and pop store into a mega retailer that draws people from not just Ohio, but surrounding states,” said Belinda Williamson who presented the award and is also the president of Kiwanis Club. Woodbury Outfitters was represented at the dinner by employee Bruce Adams. “This is an honor - it is an honor to receive this award for them,” he said. “I work with Joe and Angie on a regular basis, they are great people, a great foundation for our city, they really are. I think that the city will be surprised to see how far their business can grow – and will grow.” Coshocton County Prosecutor and local attorney Jason Given also was honored at the dinner with the Young Leader of the Year award, which was presented by Bonnie L. Coe, PhD, president of Central Ohio Technical College. “Coshocton has always been good to me and has been good to my family for decades,” Given said. “Next to my decision to marry my wife, returning to Coshocton to practice law has been one of the best things I’ve done in my life. Coshocton has suffered a down turn, but I

believe a renaissance is here and we are going to come out just fine. I so appreciate this award and thank you very much.” At the start of the dinner Amy Hasseman, Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee President also announced the retirement of Carol Remington, Chamber of Commerce Executive Director. “Thank you for your dedication and your commitment to this position and to the countless community committees and activities you’ve been part of,” Hasseman said. “We hope you stay active in the community and wish you well in the next step of your life.” R e m i n g t o n agreed to stay on through June 15, and see the Chamber of Commerce through the Hot Air Balloon Festival.

BY JOSIE McCORMICKFour Paws looking for animal lovers to volunteer their timeHaley, who is around three years old, was abandoned at Four Paws Thrift Shop & Pet Adoption Center with her nine puppies, but because of volunteers like Elizabeth Jacobs she hasn’t lost her loving personality. “I loved coming to see the animals so I thought I would volunteer and play with the puppies,” Jacobs said. While at Four Paws, Jacobs gives the animals some social time and also straightens up and cleans. “The kids also get retail skills and practice working with the public,” said Mary Seidel, who also volunteers at Four Paws. “They are learning a lot, plus they get all the puppy dog kisses they can get.” Four Paws, which will celebrate its third anniversary in June, is in need of more volunteers to help care for the store and the animals housed there that are looking for their forever homes. “They walk the dogs, work in the store and clean the cat and dog cages,” said Nancy Bieber, who is a volunteer and manages the cats. “You can work one hour or four, but we normally like to schedule four hours at a time.” Volunteers need to fill out an application and youth under the age of 16 must have a parent signature. Community members that volunteer also

can help walk the dogs and sort items that are donated. “It’s not me they are helping, it’s them,” said Shari Valentine, who is a volunteer and one of the dog managers. “They’d have to be crated or kenneled all the time if we didn’t have volunteers.” Shirley Newman, who also is a volunteer and a dog manager, agreed with Valentine. “The volunteers give them social time that they need,” she said. “If they are out being walked there also is a better chance of someone seeing them.”

If you are unable to volunteer your time, you are always welcome to donated items to be sold in the store or that can be used to help care for the animals such as newspapers, pet food, bleach, paper towels, household cleaners, laundry soap and blankets. “The money raised from the store helps support the care of the animals,” Bieber said.

Ridgewood Elementary students participate in JA-in-a-Day eventBlaine Hall was busy Thursday morning figuring out where he can put a business in a community, how to advertise for it and what skills he should be looking for in employees. The Ridgewood Elementary third grader was learning these lessons during the April 19 Junior Achievement of North Central Ohio’s JA-in-a-Day event. The program was designed to help second and third grade students differentiate between residential and business zones, learn the pros and cons of unit and mass production, recognize the role of government in their local community and discover many other aspects of business and economics. Jadyn Hall liked having Kiwanis members Stan Zurowski and Brad Fuller in her classroom. “It’s cool,” said the third grader. “It’s fun to learn stuff about how cities form and restaurants open.” JA-in-a-Day was sponsored by the Coshocton Foundation and the Junior Achievement curriculum was presented by volunteers from Coshocton Kiwanis. “Coshocton Kiwanis is very excited to partner with Junior Achievement for this new project in Coshocton,” said Carol Remington, executive director of the Coshocton Chamber of Commerce and a Coshocton Kiwanis member. “JA-in-a-Day gives us the opportunity to encourage entrepreneurship in our youth and impact many students in the Coshocton community in just one day.”

yCloverleaf planted in honor of agriculture

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON BY DEB BIGELOW

Several area friends of agriculture helped plant the “C” of corn in the cloverleaf April 20. Donating their time and equipment to plant the corn was Tri-Mac farms of Coshocton. The design was changed this year moving the “C” to the outside edge of the planting area. This is called crop rotation and is an important conservation practice used by many local farmers. The Agriculture as Art project is a concept of the Pomerene Center for the Arts and is coordinated by the Coshocton Soil and Water Conservation District. This project is an ongoing effort to honor agriculture’s prominent and enduring place in our community. The cloverleaf junction of State Route 541 and 16 provides a visible space to plant Coshocton County’s largest agricultural crops of corn and soybeans. Soybeans will be planted later in May to surround the “C” of corn. Roundup Ready corn and soybeans are being used in the area with TMK Bakersville preparing the area for planting earlier in April. The area was first planted in 2011 to honor Coshocton’s bicentennial and the corn was not planted until June 6, last year due to the extremely wet spring. The soybeans were planted

just three days later. It will be interesting to observe the differences this year with the corn being planted at a more “normal” time for this area. Soybeans cannot tolerate frost making it necessary to plant them later this spring. Special thanks to the following people for their support of this project: TMK Bakersville & Melvin Lahmers, Gerald and Judy Finlay, Tri-Mac Farms; Mike Wilson and Jim Fry, The City of Coshocton, Fred Wachtel; Coshocton County

Engineer and The Coshocton Grain Company. Again this year, no public monies will be used for the project. Proceeds from last year’s crops and donations from local agribusinesses will cover expenses of the project. The area will again be harvested with the “crop” sold to support future projects.

unityTisko honored with naming of baseball field

Interim Healthcare receives award

PEAK AWARD Interim Healthcare recently celebrated a major achievement for its’ Coshocton branch. “The Peak Award” was presented to Branch Manager, Cindi Harriman and her staff by Tom DiMarco, CEO of The Salo Organization/ Man-agement Company for Interim Healthcare at a celebratory luncheon for the staff. This award is given each year to the branch office that is successful in meeting both top and bottom line of budgeted revenues for the previous year. “It has been a particularly challenging year,” said Cindi Harriman, “due to many market factors and a general decline in our national economy. We are extremely fortunate that Coshocton County has continued to support our agency for the past 18 years as we provide quality service to its residents.” Interim Healthcare is a national provider for in-home nursing, physical, occupational and speech therapy, as well as home health aides to assist patients in their recovery following a hospitalization or injury.

BY MARK FORTUNEFormer River View athletic director and baseball coach Ron Tisko was honored in a ceremony at the baseball field prior to the start of the varsity baseball game against Cambridge April 18. The baseball field is now called “Ron Tisko Field” to honor the coach of 20 years who also served the River View district for more than 40 years. Tisko said of the honor, “This is a pretty special feeling. When you’ve been somewhere for 42 years and they do something like this it’s just a great day, it’s exciting for me and for my family and everybody I coached. I really appreciate it.” Tisko said a special memory was, “One of the first special memories I have is our first sectional championship in 1972 when Coshocton had Bob Brenly and we won the game 4-1. That was our first sectional and we went from there. There have been a lot of great memories and a lot of great players who did a lot of things – Brad Ringwalt hitting a home run over the trees – that was pretty special. Coaching my son here was special. We had a lot of great players who did a lot of great things.” “You look back over all the years that you coached, carrying all those bats, when we first came to River View, this was a rock garden, we had no fence, we had no scoreboard or anything. And look at it now, you just thank God that you had a chance to be here and help make it a better place. It’s a pretty nice ball field.” Following comments by River View varsity baseball coach Jesse Smoulder, Tisko threw a

“first pitch” honorary strike right down the middle to River View varsity baseball catcher Daniel Gwinn, who gave the ball to Tisko. Rod Lindsey, who coached with Tisko and is now the River View Athletic Director, said, “We worked a long time together, I started in the 1979-80 season, and worked a lot of years with him. I thought as the athletic director this would be a nice present for him, as a nice going away so to speak, and for all the work that he put in, not only with the baseball program but with the athletic program. Forty-two years is a long time, we thought that this would be real fitting for him.” “A lot of people have put a lot of work into this field, a great group of parents, boosters and

everyone. It’s fitting for the community to come into a facility like this and see the upgrades that we continue to try and make.” John Williams, who attended the event and played baseball for Tisko at River View, said, “It’s been a long time. I played for Ron when I was a freshman and got my first varsity start – it was out at Meadowbrook. I think I had a one hitter that day, but I’ll always remember that he gave me my first varsity start there. I got to play with a lot of good players back then; my brother Fred, Tony Burris, Terry Albertson, Denny Darr, and a lot of different guys. It’s neat to see his name on the field now.”

unityGuns versus Hoses a success BY MARK FORTUNERaffles, 50/50 drawings, concession stand and admission proceeds went to a good cause on Saturday at Kids America during the fourth annual “Guns” versus “Hoses” charity basketball game. The game pits area firefighters against the sheriff’s office. The firefighters took home the trophy this year but the real winner was the community with the proceeds going to help Breanne “Breezy” Williams, who was diagnosed in September with stage four breast cancer which has recently spread to her chest and lymph nodes. A smiling Breanne said this about the benefit held on her behalf, “This is really amazing that so many people came out to show their support. I don’t know a whole lot of them but it’s really nice to have a small community where people reach out. It’s just amazing. I just really want to thank everyone again – it’s really an honor to have so many people that care about you.” The halftime entertainment had three groups of dancers from Jody’s Dance perform and raffle winners were presented with their prizes. Event organizer Shannon Devore said, “It’s a great cause. I love having everyone get together for something like this. It’s amazing the feeling that you get in return in giving back to your community. That’s the main thing. That’s all we’re all about – it’s nice to win – but we didn’t get to this year. It’s all in fun and it’s always nice to get everybody together, us, the fire department, everyone in the community was outstanding in donating this year. I cannot

begin to describe how thankful I am for everyone donating. I just want to make sure everyone knows how thankful I am for that.” “Hoses” coach Ernie Norris said their key to victory was “muscle”, adding that the cause is the real winner. “Guns” coach Eric Demattio had hoped during a halftime comment that they would make better passes and that their shots would start falling in the second half. “We’re ice cold down here – but we’re going to have the hoop we practiced on, we just need to stay physical and make better passes.” And that did turn out partly right, with

the “Guns” team making two three point shots within 10 seconds following what might have been a deal closer alley oop by Snyder from McKee, cutting the lead to 16 and then to 15 with 8:30 to go in the fourth quarter. But the lead was not relinquished despite a flurry of three point attempts by the “Guns” with physical play under the basket and points in the paint by the “Hoses”. Following the game, high fives and warm handshakes were given all around as both teams appreciated the effort and the cause.

HOSES VICTORY The “Hoses” team walked away with the trophy following a hard fought 58 to 45 victory over the “Guns” in the fourth annual “Guns” versus “Hoses” charity bas-ketball game. The game was held at Kids America April 21 to raise funds to help Breanne “Breezy” Williams, who was diag-nosed in September with stage 4 breast cancer. BEACON PHOTO BY MARK FORTUNE

Career Center students working with Killbuck Watershed Land TrustBY JOSIE McCORMICK

Students taking part in the Coshocton County Career Center’s Natural Resource program will be tree planting pros after they get done working on property owned by the Killbuck Watershed Land Trust. The students planted 2,000 trees on the property after doing a forest management plan for the Killbuck Watershed Land Trust as a class project. “We’ve been busy marking where the trees are going to go,” said Tim Kilpatrick, natural resource instructor at the career center. “They are bare root stock so we’ve got to get them in the ground as quick as possible. Having the area marked will make it go faster so we can get it all done in one day.” The 2,000 trees include 500 Red Oak, 500 White Oak and 1,000 conifers. “Oak is a stable tree and high dollar,” Kilpatrick said. “The conifers are good wind breakers and provide shelter for wildlife.” The main focus of the Killbuck Watershed Land Trust is the conservation of land. “The Killbuck Watershed Land Trust is a private, non-profit conservation organization formed to protect natural resources such as productive farm and forest land, natural areas,

historic structures and recreational areas in the Killbuck Watershed of Coshocton, Ashland, Holmes, Richland and Wayne counties in Ohio,” said Dorothy Skowrunski, a trustee representing Coshocton. “What would New York City look like if someone did not have the foresight to preserve the land where Central Park is located or our national forests, Yosemite, Yellowstone, etc ?” The land the career center students are helping the Killbuck Watershed Land Trust with was donated to the organization by Robert Stickney. The roughly 31 acres are just north of Bakersville off Township Road 96 in Adams Township. “He was getting older and couldn’t maintain it, but didn’t want to see it developed,” said Dewey Thompson, another trustee representing Coshocton. “It has a conservation easement on it so it can’t be developed in the future. It can only be used for agricultural and environmental uses.” The trees being planted by the career center students will help the organization maintain the land. “Some of the areas are really steep, subject to erosion and tough to mow and maintain,”

Thompson said. “This will give us some maintenance free cover. We also are trying to establish a wooded area for cover for wildlife. It’s also a great educational opportunity for the students.” By doing the project, the career center students learned a variety of skills. “I learned a lot about how to do timber stand improvement,” said Brianna Arnold, a senior at the career center. “I love the outdoors. I’m going to go to Zane State and continue my education as a wildlife biologist.” The students did timber stand improvement by removing grape vines from the area, which can be damaging to the trees and clearing the area to help high value trees get access to sunlight. “We got rid of others that might crowd them out,” Kilpatrick said. Arnold has enjoyed her time in Kilpatrick’s class. “I love how he teaches,” she said. “It’s all hands on and we learn team work.”

yHome Loan celebrates 130 years in Coshocton

130 YEARS Celebrating 130 years: The Home Loan Savings Bank celebrated 130 years of serving the Coshocton community with an open house and customer appreciation luncheon April 20. Pictured at the event are Phyllis and Donald Lee with Home Loan Savings Bank CEO, Robert Hamilton, at the bank’s main office on Main Street. Kyle Hamilton, Chief Operating Officer for Home Loan, commented on some of the reasons for the longevity, “I think we’ve kept to our roots. We haven’t went out and done anything crazy in the banking industry – people read all kinds of things about banks today – we’ve stuck to our local community, we haven’t spread our wings too far. We’ve kept to our roots here in Coshocton County, we’ve kept it simple and we always try to provide good service to our customers. We wouldn’t be here without our customers. I tell our employees all the time that if we didn’t have customers we wouldn’t have jobs. We appreciate our customers and we appreciate hearing comments from them. We do often and we appreciate that. We’re glad that people stopped today, it was a great event.” BEACON PHOTO BY MARK FORTUNE

Sheriff’s office taking back unwanted prescription drugsCoshocton County Sheriff Timothy Rogers in partnership with Coshocton County Prosecutor Jason Given and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public the opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potential dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Saturday, April 28, at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds, 707 Kenilworth Ave. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked. Liquids, needles or sharps will not be accepted. Pills only will be taken. This initiative addresses a vital public safety and health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines, flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash, pose potential safety and health hazards. Congress passed the Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act, which amends the Controlled Substances Act to allow an “ultimate user” of controlled substance medications to dispose of them by delivering them to entities authorized by the Attorney General to accept them. The act also allows the Attorney General to authorize long term care facilities to dispose of their residents’ controlled substances in certain instances.

The couple will renew their wedding vows during the 10:30 a.m. worship service at the Shepler Church, located at 47507 CR 217, Millersburg. Pastor Robert Angel will officiate. Maxine Lowe Conkle is the daughter of the late Sanford and Irene Lowe near Blissfield. John is the son of the late Cleophus and Evelina Elvira Schneebarger Conkle of near Clark.

John and Maxine have been lifelong farmers in Millcreek Township and are still active with farming and beef cattle. Along with assisting with the farm, Maxine has been a full-time homemaker for 67 years. They have been long-time members of the Shepler Church and very active with the Gideon Bible work. They have two children, Randy Conkle and Carol (Brian) Baird, both of Coshocton. Three grandchildren, one step great-grandchild and one great-grandchild complete the family. A covered dish dinner and reception will be at the church following the service. It is requested that gifts by omitted but cards are welcome.

Second Place

TEAM SPIRIT Some of the teens from the Chili Crossroads Bible Church formed a dodge ball team and won second place in the Stephanie Sheehan Benefit Dodge Ball Tournament at Kids America. Arly Rouse, 15, said, “I got hit pretty hard a few times, but I love the competition. We had a great time. I’m grateful for the teams that came and played to help this mother with three children who is struggling with a rare disease.” The youth group with the Chili Crossroads Bible Church helps with community projects and is always looking for opportunities to have fun while help-ing others. The first place team was composed of volunteers with Americorp who are helping at Camp Echoing Hills. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

District PTO receives education labels from Wal-Mart BY JOSIE McCORMICK

The Coshocton Elementary School District PTO received a nice gift from Wal-Mart during its April 18 meeting. Wal-Mart presented the group with 10,000 Labels for Education, which the local store received from Pepperidge Farm. “This is very generous and I’m excited,” said JoDelle Powell, a counselor for the city elementary schools. Powell said the schools can purchase a variety of items with Labels for Education points. A 12 inch globe can be bought for 4,700 points, a book about science experiments for 1,200 points and a flat screen television for 16,000 points. The available merchandise and information on how the program works can be found at www.labelsforeducation.com. “We bought a lot of playground balls with our points,” said Patience Rivera from Lincoln Elementary. “This many points can definitely do a lot for kids.” Danae Clift, grocery manager at Wal-Mart, made the presentation to the group.

“I have two children and when they were in elementary school when we lived in Florida I volunteered at their school,” she said. “I know teachers need equipment to provide a proper education and Wal-Mart is glad to help.” The Coshocton Elementary School District PTO is meeting so representatives from the different city elementary schools can get to know each other and what they do at their schools before the new elementary school being built on Cambridge Road opens. Rivera said the points earned from the labels donated by Wal-Mart will be saved for the new school.

United Way accepting letters of interest CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

The United Way of Coshocton County, Inc., is very pleased to announce that they are accepting

letters of interest from area non-profits desiring to become a partner agency of the United Way. A new partner agency has not been added to the United Way since 2003 when the RSVP became an agency. The United Way is always seeking to meet the current needs of Coshocton County and its residents; therefore it wants to maintain the strength of the three building blocks that unite us all: education, health and income stability. “Due to the generosity of our neighbors, we met our increased goal of $365,000 by receiving pledges over $370,000 for our 2011-12 campaign,” said Lyn Mizer, Executive Director. “We are thrilled to be able to entertain the idea of adding a new agency, possibly two, to our list of essential human service programs that not only meet needs, but develop character and healthier lives.” “United Ways all across the country are undergoing transformation from not only being

a necessary fundraiser, but by also being a trusted partner across sectors, recruiting people to the cause, getting commitments for action, and connecting expertise and systems with the resources that get things done for long-term, sustainable change,” she said. “These are big goals, but we have big hearts here in Coshocton, and big givers of time, talent and treasures. The United Way is uniquely positioned to not only listen to the changing needs but also combine our efforts to make a difference. What a privilege and responsibility, all in one.” Interested non-profit agencies are asked to send a letter with the following information: 1.) Name of Organization, employer identification number, and date of currently valid 501-c3 tax-exempt status determination letter. 2.) Name, mailing address, telephone number and email address of the organization and its principal contact person. 3.) Mission and purpose of the organization. 4.) General summary statement about organization’s current needs, including a description of the program(s) for which the organization seeks support. Letters of interest must be received by the United Way of Coshocton County on or before June 1st. After review, chosen agencies will be invited to fill out a formal application to be further considered prior to final selection in August. Mailing address for United Way of Coshocton County: P.O. Box 84, Coshocton, Ohio 43812. Questions: Call Lyn Mizer, 622-4567. Additional information about United Way can be found at www.coshoctonunitedway.org.

Beagle Club to host NKC 2012 Ohio State Hunt CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACONFor the second time this month, Coshocton will be going to the dogs, as the Coshocton County Beagle Club hosts the 2012 Ohio State Hunt beginning at 6 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, April 28-29, at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds. Event organizers expect between 100 and 200 dogs to participate in this hunt. “We use Three Rivers Fire Station as our club house but we also use the fairgrounds for big hunts like this,” said Vicki Hughes-Schrock, treasurer of the local club. “Our participants will be coming from Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, all of Ohio and possibly more states. We just don’t know until they show up and register.” The Coshocton Co. Beagle Club has hosted this Ohio State Hunt at least five times in the past 10 years. “We really enjoy hosting it and meeting new people and bringing them to Coshocton,” Schrock said. “This April hunt will bring an economic boost to the area because of all of the people coming in for those two days. The hotels, restaurants, gas stations and retail stores should see an increase in business.” Schrock says the club feels the beaglers love to come to Coshocton because of the great running grounds and the plentiful supply of rabbits for their dogs. Plus, they’ve heard from visiting beaglers that Coshocton is a beautiful area with great people. The East Holmes Beagle Club assists the Coshocton club with the planning of this hunt. “If we didn’t have their support and help we wouldn’t be able to host these events in Coshocton,” Schrock said. “They have regular hunts too, but don’t have the grounds and rabbits in their area to host a big hunt so they help us here by entering their dogs, judging casts, helping with the awards, and a lot of the paperwork.” Schrock says that when the public goes to the fairgrounds they will see a variety of different beagles participating. “We will be serving breakfast and lunch and all the money goes toward the clubs so we can host this event again,” she said. “We may also have a supplier selling dog supplies such as

leads, collars, hunting supplies and flea n’ tick protection.” Schrock says there is no shooting involved in this event. The dogs only chase the rabbits for an hour then their handler must catch them. For this hunt there will be an Open Class, Champion Class and a Grand Champion Class. “The dogs are scored as follows,” Schrock said, “only five dogs per cast and there will be as many casts as there are judges. The dogs are run for one hour per cast. They are judged by their running ability and are scored on a Strike (10 points), Jump (30 points) and checks. A check occurs when a dog recovers the track with forward progress after a 15 second loss. A dog with the most points at the end of cast advances to the next round.” The Bench Show will be held first thing after the 6 a.m. deadline on April 28. The dogs are broken down into different categories including a Puppy Class, Open Male Class, Open Female Class, Open Best of Show, and Champion & Grand Champion Class. The dogs are judged on their confirmation which includes their feet, head, ears, tail, bite and legs. “We will be having a drawing on Saturday night and the public is welcome to come to the fairgrounds commercial building from 3 to 6 p.m. Friday, April 27 to purchase tickets or 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 28,” Schrock said.

“Prizes include $500 cash or a Garmin GPS for tracking dogs, $250 and $100. Tickets are $10. We hope to see the public come out and take a look at all the different beagles and all the hard work these animals do.” Looking ahead to the fall, the NKC Little World Hunt will take place Oct. 27-28, at the Coshocton Fairgrounds. For information about the Coshocton County Beagle Club, contact secretary, Adam Hughes at 610-1866, Ivan Mast at 330-231-8194 or Adam Yoder at 330-231-8638.

New MARCS tower dedicated BY JOSIE McCORMICK

A new MARCS tower will help protect rural Coshocton County residents and provide increased access to broadband wireless Internet.The new Multi Agency Radio Communications System (MARCS) tower recently constructed in White Eyes Township was dedicated April 16. “All our units working up here really should have no (communication) issues now,” said Cory Davies, district commander from the Ohio State Highway Patrol. “It should be a lot easier to communicate and we will be set when we need to be.” The MARCS system is a statewide radio

system that allows users to communicate from anywhere in the state and to have interoperable communications with other MARCS users. MARCS is a service of the Ohio Department of Administrative Services. The system is not only used by state agencies such as the Ohio State Highway Patrol but is the main radio system for Coshocton County EMS. “There were areas that we couldn’t talk from,” said Todd Shroyer, assistant director of Coshocton County Emergency Medical Services. “With the signal strength of this tower we should be able to talk from about anywhere. It should take care of our dead spots.” The MARCS system is not the primary system for the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office, Emergency Management and fire departments, but these agencies have MARCS radios for use for interoperability either locally or throughout the state. It is also expected that radio equipment for the Sheriff’s Office and rural broadband supplier Omnicity will be mounted on the tower in the near future. “If it weren’t for partnerships like this, broadband wouldn’t be in rural areas,” said Greg Jarman, CEO for Omnicity. “The vision and forethought put into this project is helping to provide rural folks with services.” This is the 15 tower in Coshocton that will receive Omnicity equipment.

“We already have 450 subscribers and this is going to increase that,” Jarman said. The project has been a joint effort between the State of Ohio MARCS, Coshocton County Commissioners and the US Department of Agriculture. MARCS has invested approximately $543,000 in this site to improve coverage for the MARCS system in Coshocton County. Darryl Anderson, MARCS Program Director, headed up the dedication, gave explanations about MARCS, and showed equipment installed in the site shelter. “It’s built to last,” he said. “It has a 50 to 100 year life span. In 50 years we will still have State Highway Patrolmen on back roads in rural areas using it to talk back and forth. I’m glad we are able to provide them and EMS personnel with more coverage.” The new tower in White Eyes Township is one of 218 MARCS sites in the state of Ohio. The construction of the tower was also made possible because of the ongoing partnership and cooperation of the United States Hydrologic Experimental Station led by Dr. Jim Bonta and Jim Hampton; Coshocton County Commissioners Gary Fischer, Dane Shyrock and Curtis Lee; and the leadership team from the State of Ohio: Gov. John Kasich, DAS Director Bob Blair and Stu Davis, the State of Ohio Chief Information Officer. “This project is a benefit to everyone,” Fischer said. “We let them use county owned property and ended up helping safety services organizations and our county wireless broadband provider.”
