By Kristy ZurbrickMadison EditorFor Macy Burchett, the third time was

the charm.The 17-year-old London resident has

been showing animals at the MadisonCounty Fair since she was 9. Three times,she has qualified for the pinnacle in live-stock showmanship, the Grand Showmanof Showmen event—in 2014, 2016 andagain this year. On July 12, she walked outof the ring the winner.“The first year, I was so young, I was so

confused. After being there multiple times,though, you feel more confident,” saidBurchett, who will be a senior at Madison-Plains High School this fall.The Grand Showman of Showmen

event brings together the top Junior Fairshowmen in swine, sheep, dairy, goat, beef,equine, rabbit and poultry. The contest-ants show not only the specie by whichthey qualified but all of the others, too.As she did in her two previous trips to

the big show, Burchett qualified again thisyear with beef. While beef is her focus—shealso participates in the Ohio Cattlemen’sAssociation’s Best show circuit every win-ter—she has experience with many of theother species.“I showed some poultry when I was re-

ally young, I took a goat one year, this ismy first year with a pig, and I’ve takenlambs the last two years,” Burchett said.To get up to speed on dairy, equine and

rabbits for the Grand Showman contest,she studied friends’ project books and gothelp from the other Grand Showman con-testants.“Everybody was great about helping

each other,” she said.The work Burchett put into preparing

for the species with which she was less fa-miliar helped to reduce stress, she said,though she remained apprehensive aboutthe horse category.“Equine was definitely the hardest for

me. I just tried to stay calm through it all,”

she said.Her words of advice for future Grand

Showman of Showmen contestants: “Don’tbe afraid to ask for help, no question isdumb, and if you are unsure about an ani-mal, work with it more than once.”Burchett is the daughter of Becky and

Dave Burchett. Her sister, Amy, showsgoats. Burchett grew up in the EagerAchievers 4-H Club and has been a mem-ber of the Madison-Plains FFA since shewas a freshman.About her years of experience in 4-H,

FFA and the Best show circuit, Burchettsaid, “I really like spending time with theanimals and building teamwork withthem...and I really like spending time withfamily and friends and meeting new peo-ple. Without 4-H and FFA, I would neverbe able to meet some of these people.”In addition to the Grand Showman of

Showmen title, Burchett’s 2019 fairachievements included: beef showman of

By Kristy ZurbrickMadison EditorLast month, the village of West Jefferson created its own build-

ing, zoning and planning department. This month, council approveda restructured building, zoning and planning fee schedule.The new schedule is easier to read and more closely matches the

fee systems set by the state and other nearby municipalities andcounties, said Tom Hale, director.The main change, he explained, is that building permit fees are

now based on square footage, rather than a combination of squarefootage, building materials, and other factors.In related action, council gave the mayor and public service di-

rector approval to enter into an agreement by which the city of Lon-don will pay West Jefferson $112,000 per year for buildinginspection services. London city council was scheduled to vote onthe agreement at their July 18 meeting. (The meeting took placeafter the Madison Messenger’s press deadline; look for updates inthe next edition.)West Jefferson already has an agreement to provide building in-

spection services for the village of Plain City and, on July 16, theMadison County commissioners signed on to have West Jeffersonperform the county’s residential building inspections at a cost of$55 per inspection to the county.In other action, council held a first reading on legislation to add

a new zoning district known as a planned unit development (PUD).PUDs allow for creative development designs and combinations ofbusiness and living environments that don’t fit into standard zoningdistricts. A public hearing will take place at council’s Aug. 5 meet-ing after which council plans to vote on the measure.Council repealed and replaced a measure it passed on June 3 in-

volving tax incentives for Hillwood, a Texas-based developer thatplans to build an 844,000 square-foot distribution warehouse in thevillage’s commerce park. Hillwood no longer wants to enter into theTIF (tax increment financing) portion of the agreement. Instead,the village will execute the TIF itself. Mayor Ray Martin administered the oath of office to new police

officers Danni Hiles and Nathan Martin. Christopher Floyd, whowill take office as West Jefferson’s new police chief on July 29, wason hand for the ceremony.

Summertime brings warmer weatherand more outside activities.

According to the U.S. Centersfor Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),skin cancer is still the most commonly diag-nosed cancer in the United States. In 2014, the U.S. Surgeon General cre-

Commemorating 100 years of family gatheringsThe weather was beautiful

for the 100th Reynolds familyreunion celebrated on June 23at London Christian Fellowship on U.S.Route 42. The Reynolds family reunions originally

began as the Reynolds/Holley reunions. Theearly reunions were held in and aroundSabina, Ohio, near Wilmington. The re-unions have been held every year since theend of World War I, complete with officerelections and meticulously kept minutes.This year’s reunion saw a total of 48 peo-

ple, ages ranging from 9 months old (Abra-ham Wesley Smith) to 84 (Howard M.Reynolds). Relatives and friends traveledfrom Arcanum, Dayton, Xenia, Circleville,Derby, Columbus and Lancaster, as well asEast Hanover, N.J., and Lawrenceburg,Ind.The day started with the blessing led by

Dave Deao followed by a big potluck dinner.For the 100th celebration, we had a beauti-ful cake made by Danielle Wilson, grand-daughter of Howard Reynolds. We followed with a meeting to discuss of-

ficers, significant events and future re-unions. This year’s officers are: president,Jerry Reynolds; secretary, Karen Deao;

Members of the Reynolds family gather in London for the family’s 100th reunion.

Practice sun safety to protect skinthe following tips for protect-ing yourself when participat-ing in outdoor activities:• Plan events outside of peak sunlight or

midday hours. • Wear protective apparel, including

tightly woven clothing, sunglasses, and hatsthat provide shade to the entire head. • Seek shaded areas if possible. • Sunscreen should be applied on all ex-

posed skin and reapplied every two hoursbecause it can wear off after swimming,sweating, or drying off skin. Not all sun-screens are the same, but they all simply ab-sorb, reflect or scatter UV sunlight before itreaches the skin.Sunscreens that are sold in the United

States are regulated by the Food and DrugAdministration (FDA). The FDA’s stan-dards are used to determine a product’s sunprotection factor (SPF). When combinedwith other sun protection techniques, broadspectrum sunscreen with a SPF of 15 orhigher can be labeled as reducing risk ofskin cancer and premature skin aging. Some individuals are at higher risk due

to fair skin, family history, hair color, eyecolor, or high number of moles. Regardlessof risk, most skin cancers are preventable

for anyone. Individuals shouldavoid sunbathing and indoortanning beds that cause exces-

sive and unnecessary UV exposure.Not all skin cancers are the same, but

recognizing symptoms can equip individualsto identify concerns to discuss with a doctor.The most common sign of skin cancer is achange in your skin—growth, sores thatwon’t heal, or changes in moles. Individualsare encouraged to remember the ABCDE’sof melanoma and look for the following inmoles or freckles: A-Asymmetrical shape; B-irregular Borders; C-uneven Color; D-largeDiameter; E-Evolving growthA few serious sunburns can increase your

risk of getting skin cancer. By planningahead and protecting your skin with cloth-ing, sunscreen and limited UV exposure,you are more likely to prevent the most com-mon type of cancer in the United States.If you have questions about sun safety,

READERADVISORY

The National Trade Asso-ciation we belong to has purchased the following classifieds. Determining the value of their service or product is advised by this publication. In order to avoid misunderstand-ings, some advertisers do not offer “employment” but rather supply the readers with manuals, di-rectories and other mate-rials designed to help their clients establish mail order selling and other businesses at home. Un-der NO circumstance should you send any money in advance or give the client your checking, license ID or credit card numbers. Also beware of ads that claim to guaran-tee loans regardless of credit and note that if a credit repair company does business only over the phone it’s illegal to re-quest any money before delivering its service. All funds are based in US dollars. Toll Free num-bers may or may not reach Canada. Please check with the Better Business Bureau 614-486-6336 or the Ohio At-torney General’s Con-sumer Protection Section 614-466-4986 for more information on the com-pany you are seeking to do business with.
