On Friday afternoon Lake Erie
Shores and Islands West Executive
Director Larry Fletcher gave a presen-
tation revealing the economic impact
of the Battle of Lake Erie Bicentennial
events. To preface the presentation of
data, Fletcher asked Chairmen of the
Perry Groups Bicentennial Commit-
tee Dave Zavagno to say a few words,
praising Zavagno as the one who had
the vision and brought everything to-
gether.
The vision we had started four
years ago, said Zavagno, how can
we celebrate as a region and bring the
western basin together along with the
United States and Canada? He went
on to say that it was great to see that
the communities did come together
to bring national prominence to the
area.
As a token of appreciation, Zavango
presented Fletcher and Julene Market,
Miller Boat Line Head of Marketing,
with framed prints of the tall ships.
Fletcher called the Battle of Lake
Erie Bicentennial the largest multi
community event ever in the Lake
Erie western basin. The event invited
people to learn about and appreciate
the Lake Erie Shores and Islands. We
denitely accomplished that, said
Fletcher. The event has had a lasting
media impact, inviting visitors to re-
member the western Lake Erie basin.
Miller Boat Line set an all time re-
cord for passenger transportation to
Put-In-Bay on Sept. 1, 2013. Market
said, commenting on the record, Ev-
eryone was happy about the event.
We were busy but we were also pre-
pared. Happy visitors led to a happy
event.
Peter Huston, a director/producer
for Film Affects who produced the
Battle of Lake Erie bicentennial reen-
actment documentary, said, We liked
the people who came to this area for
the event. They were appreciative of
the history.
The following data is relative to Bat-
tle of Lake Erie bicentennial spend-
ing in Ottawa County and Kelleys
Island in Erie County between the
dates of Aug. 29-Sept. 10, 2013. Fig-
ures are based on actual visitor ticket
sale counts provided by the various
Unites States port communities and
conservative estimates on number
of hotel, bed and breakfast, vacation
rental room nights and campground
occupancy.
Visitor spending calculations are
based on the Ohio Ofce of Tour-
isms 2013 multiplier of $108 a day
for a day trip visitor and $321 a day
for an overnight visitor.
People from all over the country
and all over the world attended the
bicentennial events in our area. Doc-
umented, people came from: Alaska,
California, Colorado, Florida, Indi-
ana, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico,
New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah,
Virginia, Washington, Washington
D.C., Wisconsin, Wyoming, Canada,
England, Germany and Italy.
Total visitor
spending for
Aug. 29-Sept. 10
was $14.6 million
7,150 total room nights at
hotels, bed and breakfasts or
vacation rentals
4,500 nights at campground
sites (not included in overnight
spending calculations)
4,500 nights that marina slips
were in use (not included in over-
night spending calculations)
100,000 total bicentennial
related visitors overall

Early snow
Before the leaves

To fall from the trees,

Striving to bring comfort
To hearts aching
From the too-soon loss

Erie Ottawa
International Airport
BY DONNA LUEKE
On Saturday Erie-Ottawa International Airport
(PCW) welcomed its rst international ight. U. S.
Representative Marcy Kaptur, State Sen. Randy Gard-
ner, State Rep. Chris Redfern, Erie and Ottawa County
Commissioners and dozens of observers greeted the
ight from Pelee Island, Ontario, Canada. The ight,
piloted by Grifng Flying Service president Thomas
Grifng, carried Ottawa County Commissioner Jim
Sass and Erie County Commissioner Tom Ferrell.
As the arriving airplane taxied up to the temporary
U.S. Customs trailer (construction will begin in the
spring for a permanent Customs building), it was met
by the applause of the welcoming crowd, canon re and
a rie salute by U.S. and British-uniformed re-enactors.
Tomorrow is today, said Airport Director Stan
Gebhardt of the culmination of two years of planning.
We must become global thinkers or become isolated.
Gebhardt thanked the Erie and Ottawa county
See INTERNATIONAL 2A
commissioners for working together,
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection
Port Director Eugene Matho Jr thanked
Gebhardt for being a joy to work with.
This improvement along the coast will
lead to economic prosperity in the future,
said Representative Kaptur. The potential
for added tourism is unlimited. Kaptur
added that the $1 million plus in federal
funds for the runway improvements and
the coalition of federal, state and county
agencies, will make our way of life better.
Sen. Gardner joined in pledging support
for the airports growth and for the po-
tential for increased tourism from birders,
boaters, shooters, and visitors to Ottawa
National Wildlife Refuge, Magee Marsh
and Camp Perry. Gardner also said that he
looked forward to continued cooperation
with Rep. Redfern, noting that people are
frustrated with political partisanship.
Commissioner Ferrell compared the
airport to the story of The Little Engine
That Could. Commissioner Sass joined
in predicting many good things for the
friendliest airport in Ohio.
In addition to the new
designation and the run-
way improvements, the
airport is nearing comple-
tion of construction of
eight new hangars that will
house 25-32 airplanes. At
the adjacent Liberty Avia-
tion Museum construction
is also underway of a new
hangar that will house the
Tri-Motor construction
project and provide storage
for vintage aircraft.
Ongoing construction
projects, increased fuel
sales and fees from more
resident planes, Grifng
Flying Services move, more
attractions at the Aviation
Museum and international
accessibility all have the
Little Airport That Could
poised to provide a boost
for the local economy and
for the community.

B-C-S School District
Thanks Voters
According to unofcial results from the
Ottawa County Board of Elections, voters
in the Benton-Carroll-Salem Local School
District passed two renewal levies on the
November 5th ballot by a margin of 72%
for and 28% against. One of the levies was
a renewal of an operating expenses levy
originally passed in August, 2000, and the
other was a renewal of a permanent im-
provement levy originally passed in No-
vember, 1979.
Responding to the passage of the two re-
newal levies, B-C-S Superintendent Guy
Parmigian commented that the passage of
the two renewal levies was an important
victory for the students and community of
B-C-S School District. Parmigian went on
to comment: On behalf of our students,
staff, and Board of Education, I wish to
thank the citizens of B-C-S School District
for their support. To honor the support of
our citizens, we will continue to be scally
responsible with hard-earned taxpayer
dollars, and do our best to be responsive to
the needs of our community.
To The Port Clinton
Community,
The Port Clinton Board of Education
wishes to express its sincere appreciation
for your approval of our renewal levy re-
quest which passed on Tuesday. With your
continuing support we are able to main-
tain an outstanding support staff, classi-
ed staff, administrative staff and teaching
staff to collectively challenge the minds of
our students in preparation for productive
careers. We pledge our continued good
stewardship of your funding of Port Clin-
ton City Schools.

This week Cathy Allen of Marblehead,
representing the Ottawa National Wild-
life Refuge Association (ONWRA), is in
Washington to take part in the Land and
Water Conservation Fund Coalition y-
in. Allen, former executive director of
the Ohio League of Conservation Voters,
is joined by Matt Misicka, Vice President
of the Ohio Conservation Federation and
Chair of the Ohio Advisory Committee for
the Bull Moose Sportsmens Alliance.
The Agenda
After a brieng by the Land and Water
Conservation Fund Coalition, Allen and
Misicka are visiting with their congressio-
nal representatives to garner support for
their mutual concerns.
Allens wish for the trip is to let our
friends know what they can do to help us.
Though she has no specic expectations,
Allen will be meeting with Sen. Sherrod
Brown, Sen. Rob Portman, Rep. Bob Latta
and Rep. Marcy Kaptur to get legislative
backing for funding for maintenance and
operation of ONWR. The recent federal
government shutdown and sequester have
seriously affected programs at ONWR.
The value of the Refuge
A report released last week by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) shows
that national wildlife refuges are a good
investment for American taxpayers and
boost local economies. The Banking On
Nature study shows that for every $1 Con-
gress provides in funding to run the Na-
tional Wildlife Refuge System on average
$4.87 is returned to local communities.
Conservation conserves more than
wildlife, it is conserving our tax dollars; an
important value for Americans of all po-
litical stripes said David Houghton, Presi-
dent of the National Wildlife Refuge Asso-
ciation (NWRA). There is nothing more
conservative than conservation or more
progressive than preserving our natural
world for future generations.
The need
The Refuge System is facing the loss of
more than 450 staff positions by the end of
next year should Congress continue slash-
ing their budget, said Houghton. Ref-
uges will be forced to eliminate popular
hunting and wildlife watching programs,
end volunteer efforts due to lack of staff
to provide oversight and many will close
their doors entirely. These short sighted
budget cuts will ultimately hurt not only
wildlife, but local economies that depend
on these unique federal lands.
In a statement drafted by the Board of
Directors of the Ottawa National Wildlife
Refuge Association, the Board calls on na-
tional leaders to ensure that a budget is
passed in sufcient time to avoid a repeat
government shutdown. The recent lapse
in appropriations had signicant negative
impact on the Refuge Complex and on our
Association.
The statement further details that nega-
tive impact, including:
Closure of the Refuge and Visitors Cen-
ter, prohibiting the public from accessing
their land for any purpose, including ob-
servation of migratory birds, waterfowl
and deer hunting, and school programs.
Lapse in vital research as migratory
birds are caught, weighed and measured,
and tracked over the course of years.
Lapse in maintenance projects on the
Refuge, including fall activities such as in-
vasive species control, habitat restoration,
winterization of outbuildings and regular
maintenance of equipment.
Closure of the ONWRA Bookstore, lo-
cated in the Visitors Center, diminishing
their nonprot associations annual rev-
enues.
Inability of Associa-
tion members and volun-
teers to access the ofce,
records, mail, or computer
equipment, causing delays
in fund deposits, member
communications and all
ongoing projects.

Youve heard of Black Friday, Small Busi-
ness Saturday and Cyber Monday? Now
Tuesday, Dec. 3, is Giving Tuesday in
Ottawa County. Giving Tuesday, which
follows the widely recognized shopping
events Black Friday and Cyber Monday,
kicks off the holiday season with a global
day dedicated to charitable giving, har-
nessing the power of social media and the
generosity of people around the world
to bring about real change in their com-
munities. Giving Tuesday celebrates and
encourages people to give their time, re-
sources, talents and social media voice to
a new kind of philanthropy that is about
social purpose and collaboration for a bet-
ter world.

The Salvation Armys Ottawa Coun-
ty Unit kicked off the 2013 Red Kettle
Campaign last Friday with a breakfast at
Catawba Island Club. Northwest Ohio
Salvation Army Captain Tawny Cowen-
Zanders announced the Campaign Goal
would be $64,000 this year.
The Salvation Army needs volunteers to
help ring the bell during the campaign,
which will run from Nov. 18 through
Dec. 24. Two hours of bell ringing is
equivalent to donating $101.03. The Sal-
vation Army depends on local residents,
organizations and businesses to Adopt-
a-Kettle at their various locations during
the holiday season.
All proceeds from the Red Kettle cam-
paign are used directly to serve the needs
of Ottawa County with rent/mortgage
assistance, utility payments, security
deposits, food, prescription medicine,
clothing, and emergency shelter. The
Salvation Army also provides 37 local
children the opportunity to attend a cost
free, weeklong summer camp at Camp
NEOSA, school supplies through their
Tools for School program and Christmas
gifts through the Toy program, which is
partnered with Toys for Tots and The Ot-
tawa County Holiday Bureau.
If you are interested in participating in
this years campaign, contact Maureen
Saponari at 419-732-ARMY (2769).

Ohio veterans who served during the
time of the Persian Gulf War have until
Dec. 31, 2013, to apply for the Ohio Vet-
erans Bonus and receive the thank you for
their service awarded them by Ohios citi-
zens.
The Ohio Veterans Bonus continues for
veterans of the Iraq War, who have until
Dec. 31, 2014, to apply. No deadline has
been announced for veterans of the Af-
ghanistan War and all veterans who served
after Oct. 7, 2001.
I personally urge any eligible veteran,
particularly those who served during the
Persian Gulf War, to apply for the Bonus
immediately. Its a very personal thanks to
every one of our veterans who served dur-
ing our recent wars from all the people of
our great state, Ohio Department of Vet-
erans Services Director Tim Gorrell said.
To everyone in our veterans community,
please reach out to these veterans and
make sure theyre aware. And if anyone has
a friend or a family member who served,
let them know.
The Bonus is not subject to federal or
state taxes, and can be used for any pur-
pose.
To date, almost $59 million has been paid
to over 70,000 veterans and family mem-
bers.
Ohio voters approved the Ohio Veter-
ans Bonus by an overwhelming margin
in Nov., 2009, to be awarded to veterans
of the Armed Forces and military service
members who served during the periods
of the Persian Gulf War and the wars in
Iraq and Afghanistan.
The specic criteria are below:
Military service of more than 90 days
active duty, not for training, anywhere in
the world during the following periods:
o August 2, 1990 through March 3, 1991
Persian Gulf; deadline to apply is De-
cember 31, 2013
o October 7, 2001 through a date to be
determined by the President Afghanistan
o March 19, 2003 through December 31,
2011 Iraq; deadline to apply is December
31, 2014
Eligible veterans and military service
members must have been Ohio residents
at the time of their entry into the military,
and must be Ohio residents at the time
they apply.
The bonus pays $100 a month to veter-
ans who served in the Persian Gulf theater,
or in the countries of Afghanistan or Iraq,
up to a maximum of $1,000. For veterans
who served elsewhere, the payment is $50
a month up to a $500 maximum. Veter-
ans medically discharged due to injuries
sustained in combat can receive $1,000,
plus up to $500 for months of service else-
where. Family members of those killed in
action or who died from disease as a re-
sult of their in-theater service can receive a
bonus of $5,000 plus whatever the service
member was eligible for, up to a total of
$6,500.
For more information or to apply, visit
the Ottawa County Veterans Service Ofce
at 8444 W State Route 163, Oak Harbor,
Ohio 43449 or call 419.898.2089.
The Ohio Veterans Bonus continues a
tradition of bonuses to reward Ohio veter-
ans that dates back to the Civil War. Those
other war bonuses are now closed.

BY DONNA LUEKE
75% of those that
come before Ottawa
County Probate Court
Judge Bruce Winters
for a criminal offense
test positive for drugs.
A majority of those
test positive for opi-
ates, most often pre-
scription drugs. Opi-
ate addiction has quadrupled in 15 years, and
Ottawa County is no exception. According
to Winters, the problem is county-wide and
crosses all social and economic classes.
The problem of opiate addiction
The problem of opiate addiction often be-
gins with a prescription from an emergency
room, dentist, family doctor or pain man-
agement clinic, and can escalate to an addic-
tion that costs up to $200 a day. This causes
a great deal of collateral social and economic
damage, according to Winters, and at times
results in the person switching to heroin as a
cheaper alternative to avoid being dope sick
from withdrawal.
The role of the courts
3,000 drug tests per year are being admin-
istered in Ottawa County. The Court orders
drug tests when a person enters the court sys-
tem and random drug tests for those on pro-
bation. For those who test positive for drugs,
a short-term stay in the Ottawa County Jail is
the rst step.
The next step, if there is a positive drug test
while the person is on probation, is the In-
tensive Outpatient Program (IOP), a 16 week
treatment plan of three hours of classes three
days a week and regular consultation with a
mental health professional. This seems to be
working signicantly better than the locked-
in treatment program, says Winters.
If an addict chooses not to help themselves
and follow the IOP program, a Department
of Corrections prison is the next step. The
recidivism rate for those sent to prison is
95%, according to Winters.
Drug Court
On Nov. 7, Ottawa County began a new ini-
tiative, a Drug Court. The Court is for high-
risk, high-need offenders. An individual can
ask for Drug Court or be nominated by a
family member or by their attorney. Those
with a drug or an alcohol addiction can ap-
ply. Each Thursday, there is a sit-down with
probation ofcer, treatment ofcer and drug
court co-ordinator to address progress and
short-comings.
The Drug Court program is 66 weeks long,
the minimum requirement set by the Ohio
Supreme Court for a step-down program,
based on research that 18 months of treat-
ment is required for a person to stay clean
and sober.
Judge Winters explained the elements of
the rst sixteen weeks of the Drug Court
program:
Enrollment in the I.O.P. program
Drug tests three times a week
AA meetings three times a week
Meeting with probation ofcer three
times a week
Community service
Work on a G.E.D. degree or equivalent
if indicated
Show that prescribed medication is be-
ing taken
Establish a stable home environment
A program with a mental health profes-
sional if indicated
The best chance for recovery is when the
person has family support, emphasized
Winters.
Quest for Clean and Sober Living
Winters has identied another need--a
clean and sober living environment for the
recovering addict. There are no such places
in Ottawa County. He envisions a Clean and
Sober Living House that is peer-monitored,
not court-mandated, with a salaried house
manager. The objectives of the Clean and So-
ber Living House would be sobriety, mental
health, physical health and spiritual health.
Since the Clean and Sober Living House
would include what Winters sees as a key ele-
ment, that of spiritual health, it would need
to be funded by private individuals, busi-
nesses and civic organizations. He sees it as a
natural mission for Ottawa County churches.
The rst step in setting up a Clean and So-
ber Living House is to establish a committee
of six or more people willing to make a year-
long commitment to nd the funding and set
up a Board for the House.
To help
Those who are interested in more informa-
tion about the Clean and Sober Living Ini-
tiative, and those interested in having Judge
Winters speak to their organization about the
Initiative, call 419.734.6790 or email bruce-
[email protected].

BY JASMINE CUPP
On Tuesday, Oct. 29, at 10 a.m. the Port
Clinton Chamber of Commerce held a rib-
bon cutting for Goodwill Industries Day
Habilitation facility located at 205 SE Ca-
tawba Rd. The Day Habilitation programs
are offered in Erie and Ottawa counties for
people with disabilities to work in a closely
supervised environment. Workers sort
donations (such as baseball cards, jewelry
and toys) and bag or organize to sell in the
Goodwill stores. Workers also scan donat-
ed books and enter them into a computer
database so the books can be sold on Ama-
zon or Half.com.
Its a great work environment, said
Goodwill CEO Eric Kochendoerfer. We
are very excited for this location to open.
All of the donations are sold, cleaned, re-
used or recycled. Even if shirts are torn or
have holes and cannot be sold in the store,
they are shredded and used as rags for
cleaning. Books that have been donated
that cannot be sold are shredded and re-
cycled. This program is a minimal waste
program and is green friendly.
Ninety ve cents to every dollar goes
back into the industries and back into
programs like this. It happens because of
the generosity of the communities that we
serve, said Kochendoerfer.
For more information on Goodwill In-
dustries or the Day Habilitation program
contact the local main ofce in Sandusky
at 419-625-4744 or visit www.goodwill-

Cutting at Port Clinton Goodwill
With the continued support of the com-
munity, third graders at Bataan Elemen-
tary participated in oral health education
provided by the Dental Center of North-
west Ohio on Oct. 30. Each child received
an apple, generously donated by Bergman
Orchard as well as a toothbrush kit assem-
bled by the special education class at Port
Clinton High School.
Smile Express, the Dental Centers of-
ce on wheels, visits Bataan Elementary
routinely and the Sutton center monthly.
The mobile ofce provides a full range of
dental services to persons of all ages with
income at or below the 300% of the federal
poverty guidelines.
The Dental Center accepts Medicaid
and Medicaid HMOs, including most pri-
vate dental insurances. Reduced fees are
available for people without dental insur-
ance. Uninsured children can be seen for
$25 per appointment. Appointments can
be made for the Smile Express by calling
1.866.378.6965. Agencies and schools can
request additional locations by contacting
the Dental Center.
Dental care remains the largest unmet
health care need for Ohios citizens regard-
less of race or ethnicity. The downturn of
the economy, with lost jobs and lost ben-
ets, has made the Dental Center a viable
option for many families who would oth-
erwise go without professional dental care.
Currently, Smile Express is making healthy
smiles happen in ten counties of North-
west Ohio.
Established in 1910 by a group of Toledo
dentists, the Dental Center of Northwest
Ohio takes pride in providing quality den-
tal care and a dental home for people of
all ages with limited incomes. The Den-
tal Center is a not-for-prot agency with
a mission that promotes and provides
oral health services to the underserved in
Northwest Ohio.

Awards of Merit in Environmental Health
Whats
going on?
Email event info to
[email protected]
Since 1983, the Ottawa County Board of Health has presented
Awards of Merit to those licensed operations in Ottawa County
which have maintained a high degree of sanitation and safety.
This annual award signies a high level of concern by the oper-
ators, not just for meeting the rules and regulations, but in pro-
viding an operation that exceeds the minimum requirements.
The awards program, unique to the state, has developed into
healthy competition among the operators and has proven to
be benecial not only to the health department, but to the resi-
dents and visitors to Ottawa County.
At the October 8, 2013 Ottawa County Board of Health Meet-
ing, Ken Sharkey, Director of Environmental Health/Deputy
Health Commissioner and Pete Spieldenner, Ottawa County
Board of Health President, presented an Award of Merit to the

The 68th Danbury Laker annual football banquet was
held at the Marblehead Post 7572 on Saturday evening,
Nov. 9. Commander Robert Peroni welcomed the team,
their guests and coaches, their support staff, school-board
member John Paul Dress and Principal Mike Cole.
The Blessing was given by Lu Hamit and dinner fol-
lowed.
After dinner Danbury Athletic Director, Drew Davie,
commended the coaches and players for the strides for-
ward they have made as a team. Mr. Davie also thanked
the veterans for their services and sacrices made.
Head coach Bryan Dudash also thanked the veterans
for their service. He told of
the scoring record that was
set by the team in their rst
game this year against Open
Door Christian School of
Elyria, as Danbury scored
a record 63 points. He also
mentioned that the ve
seniors on this team were
also on the team when they
only had 11 members and
almost lost the football pro-
gram three years ago. Their
perseverance and dedica-
tion saved the program
and players are very excited
about the future. Coach
Dudash also mentioned
that Jon McClellan has
joined the U. S. Marines.
Commander Peroni and
Mr. Hamit presented senior
football pictures that were
taken by John Kozak to
Cody German, Jim Cham-
berlin, Jon McClellan, Tyler
Dray and Cooper Eller.
Trophies were then pre-
sented to Cody German
for outstanding Back, Jon
McClellan for outstanding
Lineman and the Sports-
manship trophy to Tyler
Dray.
Commander Peroni commended John Kosa for his
many years of community service and Mary Ann Monak
for her many years of dedicated publicity work. He also
mentioned the long-standing state record of an 83-yard
pass by member Dan Monak, who also had a 104 yard in-
terception return in 1951.
Dinner was provided by Grandmas Backyard BBQ and
served by the Mens and Womens Auxiliary under the di-
rection of President Deb Garrard.
Benediction by Lu Hamit closed the banquet.

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an
end, and sadly Oak Harbor found that out Tuesday
night as Gates Mills Hawken defeated the Rockets,
4-1, in a Division III State Seminal at Cedar Point
Stadium in Sandusky.
Throughout much of the match, the Hawks (16-1-
5) utilized their speed and were able to consistently
push the ball into the Oak Harbor zone, scoring two
goals in each half to take a 2-0 before the Rockets

rallied to cut the decit in half on a goal by Alexa Weis
with 12:10 remaining in the rst half.
In the second frame, Hawken scored twice, at 32:29 and
19:30, to put the match away. Oak Harbor (19-2-1) had
two chances to tie it early in the second half, but Amanda
Hetricks free kick from about 50 feet out was grabbed
by the goalkeeper and Emma Barneys straightaway shot
from roughly 35 feet away sailed just over the crossbar.
From that point forward, the Hawks were able to move
the ball and got off a number of shots. Had it not been for
the play of goalkeeper Ivy Martin and an opportunistic
defense, Hawken couldve easily scored 7-8 goals.
The Hawks, who lost in the state seminal last year, will
play the winner of Hamilton Badin High and Middletown
Bishop Fenwick.
(Hawken) was faster than us, Oak Harbor head coach
Renee Goldstein said. They won the 50-50 balls (and) I
think our girls played a little conservative.
Its disappointing (to lose), but Im proud
of the girls. How can you not be proud? We
had a great season and we (were) the last
public school in the tournament.
It was the best season for a program, now
in its 11th season, that has been incredibly
dominant. Winners of six consecutive San-
dusky Bay Conference titles, the Rockets
had made it to the district nal in ve of the
last 10 years before nally getting over the
hump with a 5-0 victory over Woodmore
on Oct. 26.
All season, our goal was to make it to the
state nal after losing in the state semi-
nal last season, said Hawken head coach
Stan Shulman. We knew Oak Harbor was
very good offensively and we felt that if we
could limit them (on that end), wed be
able to score some goals. But their goalie
was amazing, shes a very nice player. Theyre a very young
team and they will do well (in the future).
Sadly, this was the nal game for three seniors, Hetrick,
Hannah Hess and Nikki Weis, three girls that have been
instrumental in helping to lift the team to new heights.
One of our goals was to get past districts because (the
program) had never gotten this far, said Barney, who as-
sisted on Weis goal and was named the SBC Player of the
Year for her efforts this season. We have a lot of mixed
emotions right now, but were very happy with what we
did. This was a really good season and we should be proud
of this.
It was a special experience for the Benton-Carroll-Salem
community, one that has seen few teams advance this far
in tournament play before. Oak Harbor has never had a
team win a state championship, though the wrestling pro-
gram has two second-place nishes (2008, 10), the boys
basketball team was the runner up in 1983 and the foot-
ball team advanced to the Final Four twice in 99 and 06.
As they have throughout the tournament, the fans came
out to support their Rockets.
Our parents have been there along the way, said Gold-
stein. The community has been great people were very
supportive and had so many signs made. And I have some
girls that played for me before that are here. I think we
represented the community well. Its great to be from a
small town because this is what you get (from people).
On the bright side, with all but three players returning to
the team next year, the future looks quite promising.
Im ready for everything good that will come our way,
Barney said.
ROCKETS from 2B
BY YANEEK SMITH
Tate Haar was the best player on one of the
areas best teams this year, and for his efforts, he
was named the Sandusky Bay Conferences Play-
er of the Year.
This year was a dream season for the Oak Har-
bor Rockets, and Haar was instrumental in lead-
ing the Rockets to their third league title in six
years, a sectional championship, an undefeated
regular season and a 16-1-1 record.
Unfortunately, Oak Harbors dream season
ended prematurely in the Division II District
Seminals with a 2-1 loss in overtime to Maumee
(12-6-1), a team that featured Michigan State re-
cruit Alex Wagner. Wagner scored both goals in
the defeat of the Rockets. (As for the Panthers,
they advanced to the regional seminals, losing,
1-0, in double overtime to St. Marys Memorial.)
After earning all-league and all-district honors
last season, Haar was even better this year, scor-
ing 16 goals and setting a single-season team
record with 28 assists. He was instrumental in
helping lead his team to a 15-0-1 regular season
mark, one that saw Oak Harbor storm through
the conference and dominate its opponents.
Both forwards, junior Andy Burnette (26 goals,
six assists) and senior Connor Eli (23 goals, 16
assists), combined for 49 goals, providing close
to half of the teams scoring. Their ability to
work well with Haar, who moved from forward
to midelder before last season to help the team,
was the key to creating such a potent offense.
For his efforts, Haar, along with teammate
Brandon Schimming, earned rst-team North
Central Ohio Scholastic Soccer Coaches Asso-
ciation (NCOSSCA) honors. Burnette and Tyler
Sievert were named to the second team and Eli
and Tim Poiry were recognized with honorable-
mention status.
We wanted to win the league title and I think
we had a pretty good idea that we could do it,
Haar said. It was one game at a time getting
through the tournament and unfortunately, we
didnt get to go where we wanted, but it was still
a good season.
Haar also spoke about the teams impeccable
chemistry, something that was vital in helping to
the Rockets success.
As a team, you have to be close if you want to
win big games and our team got really close, he
said. There was nobody on the team that got
away from each other. We all stay close, and thats
what keeps a team together.
Its a great accomplishment, Haar said. We
nished with the best record in Oak Harbor His-
tory and tied the most wins in school history.

On Saturday in Cincinnati, the
Port Clinton boys U10 soccer team
played in the Ohio area state tour-
nament in Cincinnati. The score
after double overtime was Faireld
1, Port Clinton 1. The teams then
went to a shoot-out that Faireld
won. The Port Clinton team lost,
and it won. It lost the game to
number one seeded Faireld and it
won enriching experiences and les-
sons. During regulation play, a Port
Clinton goal was disallowed on a
controversial off-sides call. In the
shoot-out, there was
another controversial
and game-deciding
call.
By all reports coach-
es Abby and Steve
Lukac and the boys
parents made the
choice to support and
encourage the boys
through the disap-
pointment, rather
than dwell on the
controversy. After the
game sponsor Dana
Stahl provided a pizza dinner for
the team. Then the boys were read
a letter from Port Clinton Redskin
head soccer coach Paco Romero
congratulating them on making it
to state, followed by the presenta-
tion of a Port Clinton Redskin soc-
cer jersey for each player.
These future Redskins came away
with the experience of a memora-
ble season, a memorable weekend
in Cincinnati, Redskin jerseys, and
memorable soccer and life lessons.

BUSINESS
The so-called experts
are simply misinformed!
Newspapers are dead?
Over the last 15 years, since the proliferations of the internet, paid circulation
newspapers have seen their subscriptions drop dramatically, up to 8% per year. That
is why you hear Newspapers are dead. Thats the bad news. The good news is
FREE community papers, like The Beacon, have had ZERO reduction in circulation
and readership! Our latest audit shows that nearly 80% of the households who get
The Beacon READ The Beacon. PLUS The Beacon is read by over 2 individuals per
household. So, while the daily papers have suffered, the FREE communities weeklies
like The Beacon have thrived. And better yet The Beacons Web Site just gets better
and better, updated every day with new community news items. The Beacon was
Hyper-Local before the term was coined!
So, when you hear Newspapers are dead ... dont believe it! Community papers are
alive and well, thank you! And our Web Sites are great as well because we dont have
to worry about losing readership to our own Web Site. All you have to do is sit back
and read your weekly Beacon and stay informed about the good news happening
every day.

These peas of the same pod have
seen it all during the time spent
nestled in Gem Beach. There is de-
fnatley a story to tell here by these old neighborhood friends. The tales of excitement
always seem to include access to a gorgious beach and marina, some great summer events,
and the culinary delights they experienced
within walking distance. When not seen
soaking in all that Gem Beach has to of-
fer, each of these friendly neighbors has
something unique to offer. These two gems
have so much character its hard to put into
words. Youll just have to come meet them
sometime soon.
