ARTirondack is a public art project in celebration of Huron’s Bicentennial. AR-Tirondack is the term chosen to describe the canvas local artists used to showcase their talents in transforming an Adiron-dack chair into art. The project began earlier this year when 22 artists hand deco-rated 25 chairs. The chairs will be on dis-play throughout the community until Aug. 11 when the project will conclude with the GRAND AUCTION.

The auction will be Aug. 11 at the Nia Center at Kalahari. Doors open at 6 p.m. with the auction beginning promptly at 7 pm. Tickets will be available at the door for $10 per person and are on sale now at the Huron Chamber of Commerce and Barnes Nursery. Bidding paddles are complimen-tary; hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar will be available. The Bicentennial Chair will be raffled as well. Tickets for the Bicenten-nial Chair can be purchased at the Huron Chamber and Barnes Nursery as well.

The ARTirondacks were sponsored by lo-cal businesses, organizations or individu-als. The sponsors of the chairs have selected charitable organizations to receive the pro-ceeds. They are as follows:

Huron Bicentennial Committee — Huron Bicen-tennial Committee

Buckeye CableSystem – Firelands College Scholar-ships

AUCTION

8th annual Saunders/Foss Memorial Golf Scramble

The 8th Annual Saunders/Foss Memorial Golf Scram-ble was held at Thunderbird Hills South Golf Course on Saturday, July 25th. Sev-enty-two teams filled the course for the shot gun start; the first round began at 7:30 A.M. and second round at 2:00 P.M. There were a total of 288 golfers and 67 sponsors who sup-ported the Golf Scramble in memory of Michelle Saunders and Ryan Foss, two Huron girls who were killed in an automobile ac-cident in March 2002. This year’s Scramble added close to $10,000 to the Scholar-ship Fund, which will hopefully become self-perpetuating in just a few more years. The Golf Scramble is the major Fund Raiser for the Scholarship Fund, although some donations are made throughout the year to the Sandusky Erie Community Foundation, where the Fund is administered.

Even though the weather forecast showed a 90% chance of rain that Saturday, Michelle and Ryan did not let that ruin their special event. A quick shower postponed the morning golfers for about an half hour, but it allowed everyone some time to visit at the pavilion and enjoy an-other cup of coffee (or drink of choice) and eat some homemade breakfast items that were so generously donated.

The afternoon shot gun is fun to watch be-cause they come in swarms and are so excited to play. Most of these golfers are between the ages of 21-31 and many of them were friends with Michelle and Ryan, or they are friends of their siblings or cousins. Some teams come dressed in special attire. This year, Justin Saunders’ Team of Brian Foster, Cole Solberg, and Marcus Rimboch came dressed as “The Chippendale Golfers” and Greg Cobb’s Team of Darin Cobb, Brent Sandeholt and Dan Alt-man came dressed as “Team Crown Royal”.

The day is packed with food, fun and plenty of talk and laughter. Most of the golfers and volunteers personally know the Saunders and Berlin ( & Foss) family, or they have been in-vited by a friend who has been to the event before. Goodman Beverage provides the La-Batt’s Beer on tap and donates many of the door prize giveaways. Hot dogs and beer are ready for every golfer at the Turn on Hole 9. A Chicken dinner is served after each session end and is provided by The BBQ Traveler.

First Place winners this year were the Team of Jason Bodey, Dustin Cullen, Paul Koch and Brett Carrlett (18 under ). Second Place win-ners were the Team of Ed Taylor, Kevin Tay-lor, Steve Schlessman and Jasiah Sanchez (17 under). Third Place Team of Shawn Hiper, Matt Lyons, Chris Dennis and Jim McCoy, (14 under). First Place winners for the all wom-

en’s team was Kristi Schlessman, Mary Taylor, Catherine Taylor and Christine Delehunt (3 under). Ed Taylor’s team and Kristi Schless-man’s team both donated their winnings back to the scholarship fund.

There were three skins given out: The Team of Jim McFee, Dickie Staboner, Paul DeFazio and Randy Puttie had an eagle on Hole 16. The Team of Andy Palmer, Mark Kuligowski, Todd Zwilling, and Frank Petronella had an eagle on Hole 2. The Team of Brad Hartung, Jeff McCarthy, Randy Strickland, and Steve Wolf, had a double eagle on Hole 14. No one won the “Hole in One” contest, but Foster Chevrolet-Cadillac, Inc. was ready to give away a 2010 Cadillac CTS. The winners of the “Putt to Win” contest were Tom Kowaleski and Chris Thoreson. They each won $100 plus 2 tickets to the Browns’ pre-season games, donated by Sharron, Don and Alex Suter. “Ropes” were sold for the benefit of the Sara Jane Bartlett Nursing Scholarship, which raised an-other $1000 for their cause.

Every year, for 8 years, the Saunders/Foss Memorial Fund has awarded two $3,000 schol-arships to Huron High School seniors. This years’ recipients were Matt Lehrer and Pat Mc-Nulty.

The Saunders Family and the Berlin Family would like to thank all the business and indi-viduals who supported the Scholarship Fund this year with their $100 donations for Hole Sponsorships and those who donated gifts for door prizes and raffle prizes.

We thank our many sponsors.

The Huron Varsity Volleyball program had one of its own on the team that won the Junior Olympic 17 and Under National Volleyball Championship held during July in Miami, FL. Incom-ing Junior, Taryn Graham, proudly represented the Huron on the Cleveland Volleyball Company’s team along with Edison’s Emily Stewart. In the finals, this team from Ohio defeated the Sports

Shack from Southern California 25 – 23 and 26 – 24. This is Graham’s second year with the Cleveland Volleyball Company (CVC). She has participated in the Junior Olympic Club Program since the age of nine. Taryn looks forward to the upcoming season with her teammates and, if all goes well, to play volleyball on the collegiate level someday.

On Sunday afternoon, August 16, Huron’s Kalahari Field will become an Olympics venue for several hours as Huroni-tes vie for trophies and bragging rights for a whole year. The concession stand will open at noon for those wanting to lunch before the games. Opening ceremonies begin at 1 PM, and then the fun begins.

The Oddball Olympics this year marks the Bicentennial Year by a returning to an era when Huron used to compete against itself in neighborhood summer games. Each game has been organized so that team representatives of all ages and from each section of town can compete. All contests will have four heats comprised of one contestant from each of the following age classes:

Elementary: Grades K – 6Junior High: Grades 7 – 8Senior High: Grades 9 – 12Adult: Ages 18 – 68+ Most games will be staged right at the fifty yard line of Kalahari Field, so parents and friends, grandparents and neigh-

bors are urged to sit on the home side of Huron Memorial Stadium and cheer on their neighborhood’s team. At the same time as these spirited games are taking place, four longer competitions will be held in various corners of the field. A home run hitting contest will challenge the fences, a horseshoe pitching contest will fill the air with the clanging of iron-on-iron, and two longer tournaments will keep contestants busy: corn hole and bowling ball shot put contests.

Most of the games will be staged as relays with points awarded each team that finishes in the inverse order of comple-tion. Points will be totaled and posted throughout the afternoon and at the end of the day trophies will be awarded to the top three finishing areas of town. For a whole year, winners may display the trophies in an appropriate manner in their area, but next year all are up for grabs again.

We urge families to compete together in these games, with moms and dads and grandparents joining the younger ones to defend their neighborhood’s honor! Team leaders in each section of town are now filling their rosters so contact them right away to ensure your spot. The games selected for this inaugural Oddball Olympics are as follows and are subject to tweaking or substitutions in future years:

Cycle Relay Race: Trikes, scooters, skateboards, and wheel chairs are featuredBalloon stomp: Last team standing winsDizzy Bat Spin Relay: Spin around your bat and carry it ten yards to the next teammateWheelbarrow Relay: Carry a baton and wheel your partner Sack Relay: Hop your way with a baton and hand off to the next teammateThree-Legged Relay: You’ll need some coordination to win in this race

Ping Pong Ball Relay: Use only a spoon and your mouth to walk your way to victory

Turtle Relay: Nudge a ball downfield without using hands or feet

Carpet Relay: Fly downfield on swatches of carpetWater Balloon Toss: It’s hot! It’s summer! Get Wet!Tug of War: This will pit the east side against the west side

of the river. No sign up needed. Just come down on the field and load up the rope for your side of town. Keep the women and children back, though!

What’s Cooking?

withGretchen Studer

Pecan-Crusted Trout withOrange-Rosemary Sauce

Put this restaurant-inspired recipe on your weekly menu and you’ll get about half the calo-ries and fat found in the dining-out version. Recipe by Aviva Goldfarb author and found-er of The Six O’Clock Scramble, an on-line weekly menu planner and cookbook..

Ingredients1 lb. trout (bones and head removed) Walleye fillets

can be substituted½ cup pecans1 tsp. flour½ tsp. salt1 egg white, slightly beaten2 Tbs. butter, divided¾ cup fresh-squeezed orange juice1 tsp. chopped fresh or dried rosemary

Directions:Rinse trout and pat dry with paper towels. In a food

processor, finely grind pecans with flour and salt. Brush egg white on flesh side of trout. Coat trout by sprinkling nut mixture onto flesh and pressing firmly. 2. In a large nonstick skillet or a heavy skillet coated with cooking spray, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add trout, flesh side down. Cook until pecans are lightly browned, about 6 minutes. 3. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring or-ange juice and rosemary to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower heat to medium and simmer for a few minutes until sauce is slightly reduced. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter, stirring un-til melted. Reduce heat to low to keep sauce warm. 4. Transfer trout to plates (cut them in half down the middle, if desired), pecan side up, and drizzle with or-ange-rosemary sauce.

SANDUSKY —The Com-munity at Parkvue, a senior living community near San-dusky mall.

Listening to different resi-dents talk, so many speak of their pride for our country. Their stories are touching, and gives us the desire to bring something meaning-ful to all.

During the month of July, The Community at Parkvue served as a collection site for people to bring their old, torn, tattered American flags, and on July 29th, 2009 Parkvue held a flag retirement ceremony for Parkvue as well as the public. In all, Parkvue collected almost 150 flags! This ceremony came about because of the resi-dents at Parkvue who care so much about their “America”.

The American Legion Post #83 conduct-ed the solemn ceremony, which included the playing of “Taps.” The proper way to dispose of a flag is to “retire it by burn-ing” – they are not “burned.” It is done in a respectful manner, with silence as it is

performed. Some saluted, some held their hand over their hearts, and some shed tears.

Following the formal ceremony, over 60 guests were led inside to see Fred Fogel’s video presentation of “The Many Faces of Old Glory.” All attending also witnessed the folding of the American flag, by the American Legion Post #83 honor guard, as Mr. Fogel read what each fold represented.

Most learned something that day, but ALL felt something for sure…a renewed sense of pride as an American!

Flag ceremony a success at Parkvue

VERMILION — The race starts with a shot as athletes go running into the lake. The swim is crowded with a lot of pushing and kicking to get ahead in the challenging waters of Lake Erie. The athletes exit the water. Running to the transition area, they quickly mount their bikes. After the exhausting ride, the triathletes drop their bikes and leave for the last leg of the race, the run.

Main Street Vermilion has teamed up with HFP Racing to host the second annual “Vermilion Harbour Triathlon/Duathlon” on Sunday, Aug. 16, in Linwood Park. The inaugural triathlon in 2008 was called the greatest first-time effort for a triathlon in a community. Thousands of spectators turned out to watch hundreds of athletes com-pete. Athletes swam Lake Erie and biked and ran through Linwood Park, the Lagoons, downtown and Vermilion’s picturesque country roads. Hundreds of hours of planning and hundreds of volunteers made Vermilion’s first triathlon a phenomenal success. Around 200 volunteers helped put Vermilion on the map. This year Main Street ex-pects even more athletes.

The triathlon begins at 8 a.m. with 1,500-meter and 750-meter swims in Lake Erie at Linwood Park. Triathletes move from Linwood Park with 20K and 40k bicycling events, and 5K and 10K runs, through downtown Vermilion, the Lagoons and scenic country roads. More experienced athletes compete in the longer distance Olympic-style events.

Triathletes will be treated to a rectangle swim course (2-laps Olympic, 1-lap Sprint.) The Duathletes opening 5k run is out and back featuring a run through downtown Vermilion. The bike courses feature an out and back course for the sprint course and a demanding loop course for the Olympic distance course featuring two Vermilion River gorge crossings. The race finishes with an out and back run through downtown Vermilion with breathtaking shoreline views of Lake Erie for the entire course.

Parks & Rec

Erie MetroParks invites you to par-ticipate in a two hour public forum meeting to discuss the future plans of YOUR MetroParks. These meetings will be to discuss plans for the next three, five and ten year Master Plans for YOUR park district.

Executive Director Steve Dice said, “Erie MetroParks is seeking citizen input to develop 3, 5, and 10 year plans for each of the MetroParks. It is important to have citizen input into the planning of development and management of the individual Me-troParks. Sometimes citizens have the best insight into what a MetroPark ‘should be’. We need to be careful to separate individual MetroPark needs and community recreation needs. Erie MetroParks primarily provides passive self directed recreation in nat-

ural settings. For example communi-ty may have a need for tennis courts. However tennis courts do not readily fit into the scope of a 1545 park dis-trict such as Erie MetroParks.”

Listed below are dates and times of a meeting near you. All meetings will be held from 6-8 pm.

• Monday, August 10th, Osborn Me-troPark, Frost Center, 3910, Perkins Avenue in Huron, topic: Osborn Me-troPark and Pelton Park

• Thursday, August, 13th, Coupling MetroPark, Mgr’s Office, 11618 SR 13 between Huron and Milan, topic: Coupling Reserve MetroPark

• Monday, August 17th, Castalia Quarry MetroPark, Margaretta Twp

Hall, Main Street in Castalia, topic: Castalia Quarry MetroPark

• Tuesday , August 18th, Osborn Me-troPark, Frost Center, 3910 Perkins Avenue in Huron, East Sandusky Bay MetroPark

• Wednesday, August 19th, Edi-son Woods MetroPark, Mgr’s Office, Smoky Road (near Driver Road) in Berlin Heights B i r m i n g h a m School MetroPark, topic: Hoffman Forest MetroPark

Everyone is invited and we hope to see you there. For directions to each MetroPark, please go to www.erieme-troparks.org.

For more information, please call (419) 625-7783 x226 or email depu-tydirector@eriemetroparks.org.
