Ohio good sam campers enjoy coshocton

Over 600 people with 321 registered “rigs”, or campers, enjoyed a weekend of food, fellowship, and activities while camped at the fairgrounds in Coshocton during this past weekend. Dave Spragg, current director of the Ohio Good Sam club, said, “The Coshocton community treats us real well. We have tours of the downtown, door prizes; we play games and just enjoy each other’s fellowship. Camping is about the fellowship of being together. This organization is about fellowship and helping one another”. Several representatives of the Zanesville Athletic Boosters cooked up nearly 300 chicken halves for the Saturday evening meal, which would be enjoyed along with several sides and beverages by the campers. The age range of a Good Sam camper is from around 60 to a woman 97 years young at the Samboree, which is what the event was called. Good Sam was started in 1956 because one camper stopped to help another whose vehicle had broken down. Spragg added laughingly, “We enjoy Coshocton; except for the weather today (Saturday) and we’re coming back next year. The Coshocton Convention & Visitors Bureau treats us just terrific”. You can find out more about the Ohio Good Sam campers at their website; www.ohiogoodsam.com.

tHat’s “gOOD” cHicken “sam” pictured are members of the Zanesville athletic Boosters cooking up 325 chicken halves over the charcoal on Saturday afternoon, May 8 at the fairgrounds for the ohio Good Sam Club campers evening meal. The Zanesville boosters use chicken barbeques like this as a main fund-raiser.

letter tO tHe eDitOr By Jim Bresciani

It was another glorious week here in Coshocton County! For those that had the opportunity to hear the OSU Jazz Ensemble during First Friday, I imagine they are still humming some bars. Especially impressive were the saxophone players and it was a fitting end to an excellent week of musical display at the Courtsquare during Dogwood Festival. Speaking of First Friday, the crowd was everywhere! I believe that the attendance for the initial event of 2010 was perhaps one of the largest crowds yet. I talked to several people who said that it was their first time attending. This goes to show that you should not stop promoting and marketing events – keep people informed – as our local Chamber of Commerce and Convention & Visitors Bureau are doing. The Good Sam Campers filled the fairgrounds at the end of last week and over the weekend and commented on how much they like Coshocton. “Everyone treats us well”, they said. This is so nice to hear about our community when some of the recent network news has once again portrayed Coshocton County in a negative light. So, Channel 10 – where in the heck were you last week? Shoulda been here! As another group of young people prepare to graduate around our county, let’s pause to remember the positive mark they are leaving on their school and this community. The class of 2010 had many notable achievements, academically, athletically and artistically. If you have followed this group of young

men and women, you know this. Great job, seniors and class of 2010! Our community was blessed over the weekend with an event at Coshocton High School; Rock the Arts, and at River View High School and junior high; Black Bear Fest.

Both events celebrate the students in their respective districts, and the volunteers, students, staff and teachers that put the many long hours into making these fairly new events grow year upon year, be proud of yourselves. We are proud of you. This weekend marks the fifteenth annual Coshocton County Relay for Life. Beginning at 6 pm at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds, the community is invited to come out and participate. The opening ceremony begins at 6 pm and the Survivor lap, followed by the Caregiver lap around the track, is always a hallmark of triumph and tears. This 24 hour event brings out the absolute best in Coshocton County and this year will be no exception. You just know that the members of the Relay teams can visualize the day when the headlines will blast forth, “Cure for Cancer found!” That’s why they have the spaghetti suppers, bake sales, sell candy bars and more. For their fallen friends, family members and those still being diagnosed or in the midst of chemotherapy or radiation – they do it. So please come out to the fairgrounds and support some real down to earth Coshocton County heroes this weekend. See you there Channel 10.

Memorable Quotes

On behalf of the Coshocton Football boosters, we would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their continued support of our annual mulch fundraiser. Even in these tough economic times, our community pulled together to help make this a success. We wish to personally thank Tom Edwards and his staff at Auer Ace Hardware for their on-going generosity to our football program and their involvement with our

annual mulch sale. Finally, thanks to all the volunteers, coaches and Redskins football players for their hard work this past Saturday on delivering over 6200 bags of mulch. Thanks Again!Jim BrescianiRedskins Mulch Chair567 Cambridge RoadCoshocton, Ohio 43812

From The Coshocton Wochenblatt January 1910

Not long ago, a young woman visited a well-known local factory owner in his home and beseeched him to help her so that her husband will be led to a more moderate

behavior. Earlier, when Coshocton still had public bars, her husband would drink sometime a beer, but still

provide well for the family. The worker is supposed to proselyte the drunkardness, hypocrosy, and fanatisism, brought on by the inflamitary view. Now his glass beer is taken away and he reaches for hard liquer, (liquer is

easily available) gets drunk and neglects his family. But why should a meek Donley and Consorts worry about a

worker and his family?

coshocton Farmers’ market now openBy mark FOrtuneCraving something sweet? Something green?

Something healthy? Regardless of your craving, chances are that you can find it at the Coshocton Farmers’ Market, which is now open every Saturday through October from 8:30 am to 12 noon. Featuring fresh and local foods, vegetables, fruits (in season), baked goods, meats, eggs, crafts and more, this little piece of cornucopia is located near the main gate at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds, on Seventh Street in Coshocton. Coshocton Farmers’ Market manager, Rashelle Gillett, said, “Our market is diverse. There are a lot of different things available, pretty much everything is grown or produced by the people that bring it. When you support the farmers’ market, you are keeping money in the local economy and helping local food producers, building relationships with the people. It’s such a win-win situation. It’s important to know where your food comes from and keeping your money local. As the weather warms up you’re going to see a lot more vegetables. Right now we have a lot of plants and baked goods. You’ll get more season appropriate food and produce as the season progresses”. Gillette also explained that much of the food is grown chemical free but may not be certified organic. She added that you can ask those questions of the growers as to how they are growing things.

Gillette concluded, “Prices are reasonable, it’s a great time and a nice social gathering as well as being able to get a lot of nice products”. And despite a chilly Saturday morning in May, there were several early risers at the market. You can find out more about the market at www.coshoctonfarmersmarket.com. Also available in Coshocton County is the Fresno Farmer’s Market each Saturday and the newly opened Warsaw Farmers’ Market, open on Thursday evenings. Watch future issues of The Beacon for more information on each of these markets.

national Day of Prayer observed in coshoctonmark FOrtune

In addition to National Day of Prayer observations in Bakersville and other county locations, members of the Coshocton Women of Witness and the Coshocton Ministerial Association joined with over 200 like minded Coshoctonians to observe the National Day of Prayer on Thursday, May 6 at 6 pm on the Courtsquare. The evening began with prayer and was

followed by 7 Days, a local Christian rock band, performing several songs for the growing audience. Kathy Hendricks, representing the Women of Witness, said, “This is an awesome experience. The Lord blesses this event every time. We need to hold this event as special. This is for the whole country, this is for America. This day was set aside in 1863 by President Abraham Lincoln. It does not matter where you are, it is about praying wherever you are”. President Ronald Reagan proclaimed the first Thursday in May as the National Day of Prayer during his Presidency. Following a proclamation by Coshocton City Mayor Steve Mercer and Coshocton County

Commissioner D. Curtis Lee, 7 Days performed additional songs. Marilyn Wiley prayed for, “We come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your guidance”, and lifted up all government officials for prayer and asked that they make the right decisions. Pastor Brian Kittner prayed for leadership and local businessman Greg Coffman prayed about the local economy. Haven Meizer replied when asked it was important to be at the event, “So that we can honor the National Day of Prayer for God”. Jan Shannon said, “This is important because our country is in pretty bad shape –

yet we have a lot of hope. I’m here because a lot of people are lost. As Christians we have a responsibility to pray for others. It is an honor and a privilege to be here”. Dozens of balloons were released at approximately 7:35 pm as area youth sang, “Jesus Loves Me”. Those in attendance then joined together for twenty minutes to read a passage of scripture from the Bible. Prior to the nation’s founding, the Continental Congress issued a proclamation recommending “a day of publick (sic) humiliation, fasting and prayer” be observed on July 20, 1775. During the Quasi-War with France, President John Adams declared May 9, 1798 as “a day of solemn humiliation, fasting and prayer”, during which citizens of all faiths were asked to pray “that our country may be protected from all the dangers which threaten it”. On March 30, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued a proclamation designating April 30, 1863 as a day of “national humiliation, fasting and prayer” in the hope that God would respond by restoring “our now divided and suffering Country, to its former happy condition of unity and peace.” At the time of this year’s National Day of Prayer, there is controversy surrounding the event. On April 17, 1952, President Harry S. Truman signed a bill proclaiming a National Day of Prayer must be declared by each following president at an appropriate date of his choice. On April 15, 2010, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb ruled that the statute establishing the National Day of Prayer was unconstitutional as it is “an inherently religious exercise that serves no secular function”. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Day_of_Prayer Crabb has

stayed her ruling pending the completion of appeals. The U.S. Department of Justice filed a notice to appeal the ruling on April 22, 2010. The Beacon suggests that you follow this issue by staying up with current rulings and appeals. A quick “National Day of Prayer” search on the internet will bring up the topic.

“chapter two” closes out theater seasonBy mark FOrtune

The Coshocton Footlight Players will close out their sixth first season with remaining performances of Neil Simon’s “Chapter Two”, directed by Susan Metz and produced by Becky Jacobs at 8 pm on May 14, 15, 21 and 22. Chuck Hathaway is assistant to the director. Featuring Jon Cotterman as George Schneider and Jill Fry as Jennie Malone with Andrew Duffy as Leo Schneider and Shelly Lillibridge as Faye Medwick, “Chapter Two” is the story of a widower and a divorcee having a whirlwind romance. George Schneider is an author whose wife had just died. His brother Leo gives him the number of Jennie Malone, and somehow they hit it off. And just when things are moving along, the memory of his first wife comes between them. Forty-two year old novelist George Schneider is trying to recover from the death of his wife, Barbara. They were lovingly married to each other for twelve years. Concurrently, thirty-four year old actress Jennie Malone has just gotten a divorce from her husband, Gus. Wanting each to get on with their lives, George’s brother Leo Schneider and Jennie’s best friend Faye Medwick (the two who once dated) send George and Jennie respectively on a series of blind dates, which end up disastrously. So when Leo and Faye run into each other and suggest that George and Jennie go out, both George and Jennie are reluctant, thinking that this meeting will end up like the rest of their blind dates. However, both are pleasantly surprised with each other. After a two week whirlwind romance

and courtship, George and Jennie decide to get married. Jennie in particular realizes that she is the one who has the potential of being hurt if George is not ready to move on without Barbara, especially as they honeymoon in the same resort where George and Barbara once vacationed, and as Jennie will move into the house that was once George and Barbara’s. Director Susan Metz says, “This play is by a very famous playwright, Neil Simon and many of our patrons seem to enjoy his shows. We’ve already done several of his shows; The Odd Couple, Sunshine Place, Barefoot in the Park and others. Many people know Neil Simon best for “Goodbye Girl.” Jennie Malone is actually modeled after the woman in that play, who Simon married. The Jennie Malone character is actually Marsha Mason, who people will know. As far as our cast, people are familiar with

Shelly and they are beginning to become familiar with Andrew Duffy. The audience will enjoy both Jill and Jon. This is a great cast and I’m very pleased with it”. Metz said that she would term the play, “a comedy-drama”, because there are very serious parts and there are very funny parts. Anytime you have relationships you have both and all the parts in the middle. People should get a good laugh if we do it well!” Metz added that she knows people are struggling with where to spend their money and she suggested a nice spring evening out with dinner and the play for some relaxation. Plan on going? For reservations, please call 740-622-2959 Monday through Thursday, 7 to 9 pm and on Performance days, 2 to 4 pm. You can also reserve your tickets online at www.footlightplayers.com. The Footlight Players will be doing Disney’s “101 Dalmatians Kids” as their summer children’s production, also directed by Susan Metz, produced by Shelly Lillibridge with musical director, Mike Abood. Auditions are Sunday, June 6 at 3 pm and Monday, June 7 at 7 pm with a pre-audition meeting on Saturday, June 5 at 3 pm.

wagner “jubilacion” after 35 yearsBy mark FOrtuneJubilacion is the Spanish word for

retirement. Mrs. Paula Wagner is retiring following 35 years of service teaching Spanish at Coshocton High School. Wagner said, “It’s bittersweet. There are so many memories after thirty-five years. I truly enjoy what I do, and watching the kids learn. I have these kids from when they’re freshmen through their senior year, and love seeing what they can do, and seeing them grow. Every day there was something different at school. It was always fun, I just enjoyed all of it! There are days when I think I could just keep going and then part of me just wants to try something different while I still can”. When asked about a favorite memory, Wagner said, “All the years of making the Piñatas, the dinners, the pep rallies, watching the kids develop and learn and grow, the sports teams. They’re all just good memories”. The members of the senior class, having taken Spanish for four years, were working on their Piñata that can be used at a graduation party, taken to college or just kept as a keepsake. This is a culmination after four years of studying Spanish. Wagner added, “The younger students look up to these students as role models, and they start from their freshman year asking, “Will we get to do that too?” “The kids work really hard on this, but it’s worth it. They can’t wait to work on it every day.

When they’re finished they go help someone else. I don’t have to tell them what to do. It’s just been a great journey”. Courtney Turner, a four Spanish student in the class, said, “It’s the one period that you know you’re going to come in and have fun in her class. We learned a lot but we also had fun every day. The Piñata’s are more special this year because of her retirement. My four years of Spanish will be a big help because I am going to school in Florida. Everyone will miss Senorita; she’s a lot of fun!” Alan Eby also presented Mrs. Wagner with a custom team Mexico soccer jersey, adorned with the number 10, representing her retirement in 2010.

local coach inducted into Hall of FameJim Lower, 1942 graduate of Three Rivers High School, formerly Keene, Roscoe, and Conesville combined, was inducted into the Ohio High School Basketball Hall of Fame on April 17 at the Columbus Airport Marriot. Three other coaches were inducted also: Jack Greathouse of Lancaster, Tom Edidle of New London, and the late Bob Hart of Columbus East. Past President of the OHSBCA, Paul Wayne, was toast master. A delicious buffet dinner was enjoyed by all four and their families and friends, and many of their former ball players. Jim coached 41 years. His last 18 years, he was a varsity coach at Northwest High School at Canal Fulton, Ohio. His son, Mike took

over at Northwest after his retirement. His son, Kevin is coaching at Massillon Perry. Twins, Brian and Steven are professors at Ohio State, and Jon is a student at Kent. He gives much credit for his success to his family, his High School Coach Allen Short, who he had much respect for as a coach, a friend, and his encouragement to go to college and receiving this great honor. Jim gives his credit to his father and mother, Marjorie and Kermit Lower, brother

Bob, wife Patty, daughter-in-laws and twelve grandchildren, who were all great supporters during all his years. He is a member of the Canal Fulton Methodist Church where he enjoys teaching Sunday School. He believes with God, all things are possible.

There’s more than one way to help the Cancer Crusaders and this was proved on May 12, 1950 when local artist, Tom Gartside, donated one of his paintings to be auctioned off for the cause. The painting is called “January in Coshocton County” and features the old Mohawk covered bridge covered with a blanket of snow. The picture was exhibited in the New Year’s show at the Butler’s Art Institute in Youngstown and was chosen among 200 other paintings out of 1200 submissions to hang in the gallery. Gartside said he did this to start what he hopes will be a new tradition and encourages other people to donate their items for auction.

The first American drum to cross the Rhine River in Germany during World War I arrived safely in Coshocton County on May 15, 1960. The historic drum, carried by Walhonding resident Clyde Reese, was loaned to the Johnson-Humrickhouse museum and was on display for a brief time. Reese, who was serving with the 308th regimental drum corps at the time, presented the drum to the museum as well as a photo of himself taken while serving in the First World War. The drum Reese carried was on display at the museum as well as other artifacts from past wars.

The River View Bears won the Twi-Light League Championship on May 14 at the River View Athletic Field. Unfortunately, Coshocton could not participate in the event due to a previous engagement, but the Bears still made Coshocton County proud. They scored 83 points with Utica coming in second with 72. Ray Wesney led the charge for the Black Bears came in first in the High Hurdles and the 180 low hurdles. He also took second in the long jump with a leap of 20’ 8 1/2”. The Bears also took the lead in the two mile and the mile relay.

1980May 18th, 1980

The Coshocton County Joint Vocational School had their open house to showcase their newly completed projects, including a new home owned by Mr. and Mrs. Cox and located on County Road 93. The students had been working on the house since the previous October. The class, made up of juniors and seniors from the three schools in the county, also completed other projects such as a new shelter for Shaw Park, a truck garage on Route 36, and three other projects. They had also build six 8X10 and 10X12 storage sheds, which had already been sold.

MemoriesThe way we were...

All information was obtained from microfilm of the Coshocton Tribune at the Coshocton County Library.

Dedicated to his work By BetH DulaneyJohn Miller Sr. has been a dedicated employee of Coshocton Tire for the past 50 years this month. Fellow employees say that he is a good, humble man to work with and he stands by that 100% customer satisfaction guarantee no matter what the cost. John started working at Coshocton Tire in May of 1960. One day as he got off the school bus, his neighbor, C.F. Herman, asked him if he needed a job. After graduation, Herman and Miller started building part of what is now Coshocton Tire. They built a 40X60 building from the ground up and opened business. At first, the only employees were Herman and Miller, but since then has grown to 13. John has only left Coshocton Tire once in all of those 50 years. He left to serve his country as a corporal in Vietnam in 1964 – 1966. John always has believed in customer service and treating people the way he would want to be treated. He says he strives for that in his work every day. “The extra hours he puts in is worth mentioning,” said fellow co-worker, Mary Carnes, “He definitely goes above and beyond for customers. His people personality is a very important trait of his.”

John says one of his most memorable moments while working at Coshocton Tire is when they apprehended a robber, who had just robbed the Blue Goose in Warsaw. The man had come to Coshocton Tire asking if they could fix his flat tire. Upon further inspection, they noticed a bullet lodged inside the tire and immediately called police and wrote down his license plate number. The Farm Bureau gave them $1500 reward for their efforts, which they then forwarded on to the Blue Goose. There have been a lot of changes since John first started working at Coshocton Tire. The humble 40X60 building has expanded first in the 1970s and just recently in 1999 with the addition of the second warehouse. Even the tires have changed and improved over the years. Even after 50 years, John says he doesn’t plan on retiring any time soon. “Overall, it’s been great,” said John, “These are good people to work with and as long as I’m healthy, and as long as I feel good, I’m going to keep going.” Coshocton Tire is located on West Pine Street in Coshocton. They do all types of work in the tire industry including alignment and do work on all types of vehicles. For more information, visit www.coshoctontire.com.

river view staff and teachers recognizedBy mark FOrtune

Special recognition was given to several retiring River View teachers and assistant high school principal, Mr. Doug Spade, during the second annual teacher recognition assembly, held in the high school auditorium on Friday, May 7. The event, organized by student council members Jessica Paynter and Duane Stutzman, awarded over seventy teachers, administrative staff members, food service and maintenance / janitorial staff with a coffee mug or potted flower for their service. Along with Paynter and Stutzman, student council members Raven Wilson and Tia’ Murray handed out coffee mugs, many hugs and potted flowers. Present retiring teachers recognized were; Mrs. Pam Morrison, Mr. Richard Jones and Mr. Doug Spade. Mr. Chuck Wiseman and Barbara Stagmyer were also recognized for their retirement. High School principal Mr. Chuck Rinkes said, “We have a great staff and this is an opportunity to appreciate that service”. Speaking to the students, Rinkes said, “We want to make you a better person. We want to make you a better student. We want to make you a better citizen. We want to make sure what we do here every day is going to help you be better for our community. Our teachers help do that day in and day out”. Mrs. Morrison, who retired after thirty years of service teaching English, said, “I’m going to miss the kids. I’m going to miss everybody here because this is the most awesome place”. Speaking with emotion in her voice, Morrison added, “I love the kids, I love River View, I love the whole school district. It made me feel very proud today”. Mr. Richard Jones, retiring after thirty eight years of service, remarked, “I think it’s going

to be a change. I’m going to enjoy it. I’m going to continue teaching at the technical school. You always miss the kids and the people you work with”. Mr. Doug Spade, who came to River View from Tri-Valley, said, “The thing I will miss the most are the kids. The best part of the whole opportunity this year was getting to know the River View kids. They’re great! As are Tri-Valley kids! All the kids I’ve worked with – they’ve all been wonderful”. Jessica Paynter commented, “I’m proud of our student body for doing what they did today. Our teachers need to know that there are students that care”. In addition to recognizing the teachers, the student council also hailed the

food service, administrative and maintenance staff. Paynter added when asked why she felt this was important, “They are important too, and they help keep this building looking terrific and keep us fed”. A member of the team that keeps the building clean, Chris Slaughter, said that it felt, “Wonderful”, to be recognized. I love my kids and it felt so good to be appreciated”. Mr. Rinkes added, “This shows how much the kids appreciate what they have. We say that we have to do excellent things but it boils down to all parties working together to make that happen. You could want it (excellence) for a lot of reasons but unless you work together that’s not going to happen. What they (the teachers) do in the classroom and beyond needs to be recognized”.

a Flourishing First! By mark FOrtuneFriday, that is. The introductory “First Friday” of this year drew hundreds to downtown Coshocton on Friday evening, May 7, even as impending weather approached the community. Thankfully, the weather held off and a warm, yet windy Friday evening was enjoyed. As a beautiful week of the Dogwood Festival wound down, First Friday’s kicked off with a flourish. Carol Remington, Executive Director of the Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce, said, “We’re off to a really good start. Anything you want to shop for, you can probably find in downtown Coshocton. We want to keep your money where your home is. At least come down and look. If you can’t find it, ask! The chances are that the store owner can find it for you. The purpose is to get people back in the habit of shopping downtown. This is a chance to visit with people that you know”. Tiffany Sammons, said, “This is actually our first time to come down here and there are a lot of activities. We will come back!” Cheryl Triplitt, who has traditionally put a lot of energy and effort into the First Friday event, continued that mission this past Friday. Triplitt stated, “I think it’s a good thing to show the kids a sense of community and get everyone out, to interact as a community. That’s what we’re supposed to be, a nice, small town, good

people”. As you enjoyed a piece of pie or a staple from Peggy Sue’s or perhaps a burger from Schumaker Farms you could talk to friends and neighbors or watch dozens of children enjoying some rides, petting a calf (or a pig!), dancing, getting their faces painted and much, much more. Maybe you took a stroll down either side of Main Street and grabbed some popcorn from the nice folks at Century 21 and washed it down with some lemonade or fruit punch sold by a young vendor, Brenna Udder, in front of The Party Package Too! You may have snapped up a piece of pizza from East of Chicago or made a donation for some cookies from the Coshocton County Board of Realtors in front of Second Chance Furniture. Or, you might have enjoyed glorious jazz music provided by The Ohio State University Jazz Ensemble in the Park. Humming the bars of Moonlight Serenade strolling to your car, you might have wrapped up the evening with a traditional Coke float at Miller’s Pharmacy and even grabbed some

“rest” in a recliner at Wilson Carpet & Furniture before heading home for the evening. First Friday started with a flourish with many enjoying the event for the first time. It is doubtful that it will be their last”.

celebrating excellence By mark FOrtune

Hundreds of River View district students and families enjoyed this year’s edition of “Black Bear Fest”, despite chilly weather on Saturday, May 8. The annual event is held to celebrate the “Excellent” rating awarded by the state of Ohio to River View Schools. Complete with a dunk tank that was endured in the cold by several teachers, coaches, principals and Superintendent

Kyle Kanuckel, monies raised will go to the River View Relay for Life team. Families and students could enjoy a pancake breakfast, face painting, musical performances, dunking booth, vendor exhibits, inflatable’s, model airplane flights and more, including a dodge ball tournament at the junior high. Andrew Haines, who dunked Coach Hemming and Mr. Polen in the tank, commented about the dunking, “It felt good and it was fun”. Kendra Whiteus, who was accompanied by her daughters at Black Bear Fest, said, “I

think that it is important as a community to celebrate their achievements”. One daughter was singing in the Honor Choir during the Black Bear Fest. Mr. Kyle Kanuckel, said, “This event is growing each year. I think people are very appreciative of the fact that they

get to come and enjoy each other’s company. It really becomes a celebration of excellence, which is exactly what we intended to do. I can’t say enough about our committee that worked on this, especially chairperson, Renee Anderson. She is just absolutely outstanding. This event brings the community together and lets them enjoy one another’s company”.

DODge Ball cHamPs! Celebrating their own brand of excellence are the members of the River View Black Bear Fest dodge ball tournament. The “Gunpowder and Lead” eighth grade team not only won the junior high tour-nament but also knocked off a group of high school seniors in a sudden death match. Team spokesperson Brandon adams said about the teams wins, “it feels pretty good. We just tried to get out there and have fun. i will say that hammond (Steve) has some good dance moves. it was just a lot of fun”.

Overwhelmed! By mark FOrtuneAs the unofficial election results were shown at the Board of Elections on Tuesday evening, Coshocton City School Board members, committee volunteers, local elected officials and well wishers celebrated the imminent passing of the bond issue by a large majority of voters to build a new elementary school. Coshocton City Mayor Steve Mercer said, “I’m ecstatic for the school. This is something that we absolutely needed. With our aging buildings, we needed this. I think that the committee got the message out and obviously the people not only understood it, but supported it. I’m just absolutely thrilled for them”. Todd Salmans, Coshocton City School Board President, commented, “The board of education put this in the hands of the voters to decide what they wanted for this community and they answered. They came through on a great opportunity. I’m speechless”. Superintendent of Coshocton City Schools, Dr. David Hire said, “Right now I’m overwhelmed. I just continue to be amazed at this community. I will be forever grateful.

medbery market opens in roscoe villageHistoric Roscoe Village continues to be a place merchants want to call home! In the next few weeks, Roscoe Village will welcome a new business in the village called Medbery Marketplace. The business is owned and operated by the McKenna and Misener Families, the same families who operate the Unusual Junction in Coshocton County, which opened in 1972. The location of this exciting new addition will be in the old Roscoe Hotel, which now houses Timbuktu. Arnold Medbery built the building in 1856, replacing his earlier 1832 wood-framed hotel, which burned. It was a stagecoach stop believed to have been on the Underground Railroad. A magnificent building, it had a retail business on the ground floor, sleeping rooms above and a ballroom on the top floor. Terry Misener, one of the family business owners, says she is honored to be able to open a business in Roscoe Village and considers it the opportunity of a lifetime. She has always admired the village and has looked at the village as a mentor for the businesses she and her family own and operate at the Unusual Junction and Universe Bridal Shop. Misener says she absolutely fell in love with all the history the village holds. “I fell in love with the place,” said Terry. “After seeing the second, third and fourth floors,

we knew we wanted it and wanted to share with others!” Medbery Marketplace will host a deli similar to the one at the Unusual Junction and continue to carry many home accessory items currently offered by Timbuktu. The deli will consist of deli meats and cheeses, gourmet foods, and a wonderful selection of Chinese, Asian, Italian and Mexican foods. There will also be bulk snacks, dried nuts and chocolates, kitchen items and an old-fashioned pickle barrel. There are lots of favorites complimenting many new offerings. Additional plans are to make available seasonal produce supplied by local vendors. Medbery Marketplace would like to offer the delicious cheese spreads that were carried at The Cheesery. Terry invites anyone who would like to share those recipes to contact Bob McKenna at the Unusual Junction at 740-545-6007. “I am looking forward to being able to get the local trade back into the village,” said Misener. “We need the local business to sustain us through the winter. I know if they have Medbery Marketplace on their grocery list every week, they’ll also patronize other businesses in the Village.” Although there are plans for some renovation in the near future at Medbery Marketplace, the focus is to get the first floor up and running with

the addition of the deli. A set of steps will be opened to the second floor where Knob Hill Design will remain in business. In the future, the staircase to the third floor will be reopened and the 14 hotel rooms transformed into an antique mall. The fourth floor, which was the ballroom, is also being considered in future plans for Medbery Marketplace. Timbuktu is currently having a clearance sale at 25% off to make room for new items. At the Unusual Junction, it’s still business as usual, and Medbery Marketplace will offer the same great favorites and the same great prices when it opens in the next few weeks. Medbery Marketplace is one of many experiences when you visit Historic Roscoe Village. The village offers Canal Town Journey tours, hands-on activities, horse-drawn canal boat rides, the nationally accredited Johnson-Humrickhouse museum, beautiful gardens, charming shops, fine dining and seasonal festivals and special events. Visit the Web site at www.roscoevillage.com or call 740-622-9310; toll free 800-877-1830 for additional information about Roscoe Village.

library news from coshocton county Public libraries

rock On By mark FOrtuneThe Coshocton City Schools presented the third annual “Rock the Arts” on Saturday, May 8 at the high school. A Celebration of Education, the “Rock the Arts” celebrates art of all types for the Coshocton City Schools. With art, table displays, live musical performances and posters covering walls and seemingly floors as well, the community responded with enthusiasm to the presentation with a large crowd browsing the halls and gymnasium. Amber Meiser, a sophomore, said, “I think everybody gets excited and likes to see what we’re learning and what we’ve done throughout the schools”. Junior MacKenzie Wheeler, commented, “It’s a lot of fun and people put a lot of work into it, not only setting up the artwork but also in doing the artwork. It’s also a nice way for the community to get together. We started planning back in December by getting committees together”. Sam Thomas, also a sophomore, added, “It’s important for people to see the artwork that kids can do. Art is a good way for students to express their feelings”. Senior Christian Taylor commented on why he feels the arts are needed, “Art is important. You’re always going to have the arts, but you may not always have sports. I enjoy art class and it’s

a good thing to have in our community. This lets you express yourself. On the court (basketball) maybe you don’t always get to express yourself but you can do that in art class”. Dawn Shook, who coordinated the event, said that the main vision for the event came from Mrs. Beall, who started “Rock The Arts” three years ago to bring the district together

and to celebrate the students work and their achievements. She’s the one who organized it. Dr. Hire and Mr. Hartmyer have been good about letting us do our thing and that’s awesome. The kids have been wonderful. With the state standards now, we don’t have a lot of time to focus on art, but we try to focus some attention to it. This allows kids to express themselves in ways that are creative and neat, and maybe not be like anyone else”. Mrs. Beall commented, “I think each year it gets a little bit bigger and a little bit better. This is really about the kids and promoting what they do. And if the kids like it, the community is going to like it”. Senior KaLyn Markley, who is involved in the arts in a big way and especially “Rock the Arts”, is the President of the Art Club and the President of the National Art Honor Society. Markley remarked, “This event is important because it brings

the community together, not just Coshocton, but also Ridgewood, River View, anyone who wants to come. Art really helps you express yourself. Art calms me down and lets me get away from things. The art room is a really carefree environment. I think that art in school is a way to just take a load off and chill out. It’s important to have art”.

rOck tHe arts pictured are three Coshocton high School students that helped with this year’s “Rock the arts” event, held Saturday, May 8 at the high school. The girls are standing next to a sand table display of the Trail of Tears, which depicts the forced relocation of native americans from Tennessee to reservations in the west.

Dinner held to honor military Funeral Honor guard membersMembers of the Coshocton County Veterans Council were recognized for their achievements at the eighth annual Military Funeral Honor Guard dinner, held Thursday, April 29 at the American Legion Post #65. Among the 31 members honored was George Leach, who surpassed the 1,000 mark for attending military funerals. Jim Stone and Paul Cummings both received certificates signifying that they have reached the 900 mark.Also recognized for achieving milestones were Bob Baker (800 funerals), Bill Pettit (600), James Ayers and Fred Lent (500), Paul Markley (300) and Lewis Baker, Don Kennedy and Frank Spinks Jr. (200). “It’s a great honor to recognize these individuals for their achievements and I’m honored to be a member myself,” said Jack Miskimens, President of the Coshocton County Veterans Service Commission. “I’ve volunteered for a lot of stuff in my life but I have never seen such a dedicated group.” The Honor Guard typically consists of a Commander, Chaplain, Officer of the Day, seven riflemen who perform a 21-shot salute, a bugler who performs taps and flag handlers during a cemetery service. Occasionally, a “walk-through” is performed where each member of the Honor Guard approaches the deceased veteran’s casket to salute him/her at the area funeral homes.

Others who were recognized for their participation in the Honor Guard over the past year include Miskimens, Richard Bechtol, Charles Bush, Diana Caton, Tom Dile, Dave Dilly, Charles Dittmar, Irwin Gibson, Martin Glazier, Russell Hammond, Vince Hershberger, Ronald Layton, Jack Lipps, Jack Patterson, James Shivers, Jeff Thomas, Herb Tidrick, Willie Wilson, Elmer Wright and Jim Barstow.During 2009, the Honor Guard presided over 79 military funerals with bugler Ron Layton attending all but five. Matt Lingo, Robert Mills, John Norris, Dave

Sturtz, John Weaver and Dan Perkins– all whom regularly attended Honor Guard activities – passed away in 2009 and early 2010. The Military Funeral Honor Guard performs approximately 75 funerals per year. Certificates are presented to individuals for every 100 funerals attended. According to the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, Ohio veterans of World War II are dying at a rate of nearly 40 per day, dropping from a total of 108,551 in 2008 to 95,106 in 2009; nearly 20 Korean War veterans from Ohio are dying each day, dropping from a total of 108,978 to 101,926 during the same span; and, Vietnam Veterans dropped from 314,489 to 308,638 – an average of 16 per day Former Military Servicemen or women who are interested in becoming a member of the Coshocton County Veterans Honor Guard are encouraged to contact the Coshocton County Veterans Council by calling 622-2313.
