The Huron River Boat Access property was the recipient of four spruce trees ear-lier this summer. The trees were donated by Mr. Todd Anderson of Plantation Mo-tel and Anderson Realty. Todd and his son, Kurt, dug up the approximately 3 to 4 foot trees on their property, donated them and assisted Chris Basting, Hu-
ron Parks Maintenance Manager, with the planting of them on the Boat Ramp property. “All of the donations we re-ceive are greatly appreciated, however, for Todd and Kurt to come and help us re-plant the trees was extremely helpful and meaningful,” stated Basting. This type of volunteer work goes above and
beyond, he continued.Anderson donated the
trees as a way of show-ing his appreciation for the Boat Ramp facility. The combination of the location of the property and the design of the ramp made for a perfect fi t stated Anderson. He is delighted to be able to offer the patrons of his motel closer launch-ing options at no charge. The Anderson tree dona-tion will live on for many years and will be enjoyed by others as they visit the Boat Ramp.
In just a few weeks the Huron Historical Soci-ety will be installing a time capsule commemo-rating our community’s bicentennial. It is in-tended to be opened on Huron’s 300th birthday. This time capsule will be placed in the circular area in front of the Boat Basin building under a large granite slab engraved with our bicenten-nial logo. Plans for an October dedication will be announced soon.
What is needed is input from all the commu-nity. The big question: What items would tell a story about life in Huron today for those open-ing the capsule in 100 years? The items must fi t in a beautifully crafted 12-inch by 12 inch by 18 inch stainless steel box.
Now is the time for Huron’s civic organiza-
tions, churches, city, township and business groups to offer suggestions and items for the box. We know that some of the churches are celebrating signifi cant anniversaries; the schools and college are proud of their recent accomplishments; our town is undergoing a transformation with the changes in the river-front; and our local organizations and busi-nesses contribute in many ways to the quality of life here. All of these entities must commu-nicate these things to future residents. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to tell our story to the people of Huron 100 years from now.
In addition, the time capsule will carry the following message to the future:
Greetings from 2009We the citizens of Huron, Ohio, send greet-
ings from the past. If you are reading this plaque, our efforts at preserving Huron’s his-tory have succeeded. Our community has just celebrated 200 years of growth and progress. As a gift to you, our fellow citizens, our descen-dants, our future, we have enclosed in this time capsule, items that depict our city of Huron, as it stands in the year 2009. These items were assembled from all aspects of our community. Our businesses, organizations, schools and children have placed materials they deemed important in telling you of our present and your past.
Our hope for you on the day of this open-ing is that you are safe, productive, thriving and happy. We hope that the foundations we have laid in 2009 have served you well and that many great things have been created from these works.
As for us, our work is done and we rest at peace in the knowledge that you have survived
and are about to receive our message of hope.“Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomor-
row is ours to win or lose.”Lyndon B. Johnson36th President of the United StatesSigned:The Citizens of the City of Huron, Ohio, 2009

The following is a Letter to the Editor from the Lake Football Program mem-bers, who were affected by the devastation by a tornado that tore through the Mill-bury community on June 5. The tornado destroyed the community’s school and killed seven people. When the Lake Local School District Flyers’ football teams came to Kalahari fi eld for a scrimmage Aug. 13, the Huron athletic boosters, the football program and the basketball program all chipped in to provide relief.
Dear Huron football program,Thank you for the generous gift to our
football program. The $1,000 gift – pre-sented to us after our recent scrimmage – is appreciated. We know the money could have been put toward your own program. Thank you for helping teach your kids, as well as ours, lessons beyond the fi eld. Each Friday, we will cheer on the Flyers and the Tigers.
Thank you,Lake football program
A Note to the Community from the Huron Historical Society and Bicentennial Committee
Name and Message Plates AvailableThere is room on four sides of the box for 114 name or message plates. Community members are invited to purchase a plate for $15 with room for 40 characters: for example, a name or phrase. These engraved plates will attach to the outside of the capsule. Those opening the box in 2109 will fi nd the names, businesses and phrases engraved on its sur-face. They might fi nd the name of an ancestor (yes, that is what we will be), a business that sold things no longer in use (remember “buggy whips?”), or a phrase that is mean-ingful in understanding what we were like and what was important to us in 2009. For example, the electric light bulb of 1909 is today’s Ipad. Think about who might be the fi rst to see this box a century from now. It could be the grandchild of a Huron kinder-gartner today. For more detailed information about the time capsule call Alyson Wilson at 433-2280 or email her at [email protected].

The Firelands Symphony Orchestra has received a two-year matching grant of $6,190 from the Ohio Arts Council to help cover concert expenses, as well as music outreach programs in local schools.
Grants from the arts council’s Sustain-ability Program are awarded through a
competitive process that recognizes the highest levels of programming, community outreach and administration. The Firelands Symphony strives to broaden public appre-ciation of the arts by reaching students and adults in this community who do not have frequent opportunities to attend and par-
ticipate in cultural events.The Firelands Symphony
offers free tickets to students for its orchestra concerts, al-lowing them to attend the events and develop a life-long interest in symphonic music. This also encourages students to continue with the music programs in their schools, creating stronger orchestra, choir and band programs.
“Part of our mission is to provide music education,” said AnnVoight, president of the symphony’s board of directors. “This grant will help strengthen our part-nership with the schools. We’re also pleased that the grant confi rms that our pro-gram stands up well among the many arts programs throughout the state.”
The Ohio Arts Council has a budget of $6.59 million for fi scal year 2011 to fund and support quality arts experiences that strengthen Ohio communities cultur-ally, educationally and eco-nomically. Grant recipient organizations must match state dollars with additional public and private funds. Local donations from in-dividuals and companies enabled Firelands to qualify for this grant.
Huron’s own Venture crew #86 is having a planning campout. Venture crew is a division of the Boy Scouts of America. It is a co-ed group of young adults ages 14-21 who participate in outdoor adventures.
The crew’s campout will be at the coupling on Sept. 18. Anyone interested in joining can camp with the crew. Cost is $10, which covers the cost of the campsite and the food.
The Venture Crew’s last adventure was to Kentucky for some intensive caving. Check out the crew on Facebook at venture crew 86.
Future adventures are being considered, including a white water rafting trip in New York; hiking in the Smoky Mountains; or kayaking the current river in Colorado.
Anyone interested in attending the planning campout should email [email protected] or call Cathy Kaip, advisor. at 419-271-3047.
Open auditions for Firelands College Theatre’s Fall pro-duction of Arthur’s Miller’s award-winning drama, The Crucible, will be held from 9 to 11:30 a.m., Saturday, Sept. 11; from 6 to 9 p.m., Monday, Sept. 13; and from 5 to 8 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 14. All auditions will be held in the McBride Auditorium on the BGSU Firelands campus. Other audition times may be scheduled by appointment, if necessary.
Written in 1953, Miller’s powerful play about the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem mirrored the anti-commu-nist hysteria inspired by Senator Joseph McCarthy’s ‘witch-hunts’ in the United Sates. “The Crucible” has become a classic of the American Theatre, and continues to speak to
contemporary social, religious, and political concerns.Male and female actors of high school age and above are
needed to fi ll the 20 roles available. Several female roles may be fi lled by 10- to 15-year-olds. Prepared material is not required for the audition, but some familiarity with the play would be helpful.
Production dates will be Nov. 4-7, with most rehearsals scheduled for evening hours, Mondays through Fridays. Dr. Jann Graham Glann, assistant professor of humanities at BGSU Firelands, will serve as director. Associate profes-sor Dr. Frank Glann is set designer.
For additional information, call Jann Glann at 419-433-5560, Ext. 20662, at 419-433-3503, or at 440-452-6115.
COLUMBUS – State Rep. Dennis Murray (D- Sandusky) announced that the Ohio Department of Transportation has applied for federal money to build a new runway to support NASA Plum Brook.
“The Plum Brook facility is a unique and successful test
center. An investment in the runway would be a long-term
benefi t for NASA, Erie County, and the entire region,”
Murray said. “I strongly support the efforts by the county,
state, and federal governments to make this project a real-
ity.”
The $60 million grant request is for a 9,000 foot-long
runway in support of the existing NASA Plum Brook fa-
cility in Erie County, and other road and infrastructure
improvements around the facility. The NASA station is
home to the world’s largest vacuum space chamber and is
the only place in the world where full tests of some equip-
ment can be done. Without safe and convenient transpor-
tation to the facility, however, many foreign and private
manufacturers have avoided full tests that could be done
at NASA Plum Brook. The runway would be capable of
handling cargo planes used to transport this expensive and
large equipment.
NASA Plum Brook currently employs 175 people. The
proposed runway would attract more sustainable, high-
tech jobs to Erie County.
“Erie County Commissioner Pat Shenigo has done an ex-
cellent job of opening our eyes and minds to the potential
of this site while General David Stringer has spelled it out
in clear terms for all to grasp,” Murray said. “Now it is
time for the state and federal governments to help us maxi-
mize the enormous national investment in this facility.”
The state and Erie County are working together on the
grant application to the U.S. Department of Transporta-
tion. This new federal funding is similar to the Transporta-
tion Investment Generating Economic Recovery – or “TI-
GER grants” – authorized under the Recovery Act.
Competition is expected to be intense for these limited
federal funds, with all 50 states eligible for the grants. The
U.S. DOT is expected to announce the projects that have
been selected to receive these grants after mid-September.

Find out by attending the Sept. 9 fall-semester kickoff of ElderCollege at BGSU Firelands.

Kicks Off ElderCollege
So are you ready for school? Finished your shopping, running around gathering up supplies? Picked out the latest fashions to impress your peer group? Or if you’re a teacher – have your room all set up, lesson plans ready for the fi rst few weeks, goals set for the year, and men-tal notes taken at open house on what is in store? Maybe parents are relieved that summer is over – no more hear-ing, “I’m bored – what is there to do?” or having to replenish the refrigerator every fi ve minutes.
Do you or did you enjoy school? Or fi nd it a major effort and a social nightmare? Were you ever tempted to cheat?
I thoroughly enjoyed school. My crowd of buddies hung out as a pack, did everything together from kindergarten through twelfth-grade and some still stay in touch. I was a “band-o” and proud of it, ‘cause I could carry a beat and a bass drum.
So it was brand new territory when my wife Joan (who also enjoyed school) and I had two children with learning disabilities. Each one needed different kinds of individu-alized help, and many nights we stayed up late making a game out of learning the homework, as long as we could stay awake. The experience gave us great empathy for other parents, students, and teachers having trouble with school.
Our learning achievements boiled down to feelings, faith, seeing the higher goal, following the rules, and reaching for the stars. Maybe they were going for different stars or the same stars from unique angles of approach. Prayer, prayer and more prayer got us all to the fi nish line. We bonded
better as a family through the challenges. The New Testament letter to the Hebrews Jewish/Chris-
tian congregation “took them to school” over several issues that they needed to learn, begging them to avoid cutting corners by cheating. Lessons that needed to be emphasized, and classroom behavior that needed correction.
But the overall solution was a change in spiritual attitude that would impact everything from the inside out. We can attempt to change symptomatic behavior all day long until we’re worn out. But when the heart is changed – when we believe that God truly loves us, that the Holy Spirit is with us through thick and thin, that we belong to a con-gregational community who cares about us and wants us to succeed in the spiritual life – then those reassurances will reorganize our earthly priorities with a sprinkling of heavenly grace.
Some of the lessons: “Let mutual love continue. Show hospitality to strangers. Remember those in prison. Let marriage be held in honor by all. Keep your lives free from the love of money. Be content with what you have. Do good and share what God has given you. Remember your leaders and imitate their faith.”
So as we thank our teachers and begin another school year, let’s pray for them. Come alongside with offers of help instead of criticism. Become partners in learning and all sorts of growth. Empathize, and grow your spirit of love as well.
So here’s the lesson plan, titled: “Empathize”: Chapter 1 – Keep on loving. Chapter 2 – Keep on living up to God’s laws. Chapter 3 – Keep on trusting.
Pretty good way to go for a good new school year – God bless.

Sports
On a truly magnifi cent late summer evening, the Huron
football program celebrated the opening of the 2010 sea-
son with their parents. Prior to the varsity game against the
Vermilion Sailors, 103 players, cheerleaders, ball boys etc.
and their parents, were presented to whomever was still
left in the stands. It was an impressive site to see all those
who make sacrifi ces so the kids can participate in extracur-
ricular activities.
The Tigers came out full of energy and ready to hit. With
John Dusza – on loan from the soccer team – handling
the kicking chores, Huron was able to force Vermilion into
poor fi eld position much of the evening. In fact, the Ti-
ger’s fi rst six points came courtesy of Dusza’s powerful
leg. The fi rst fi eld goal was a 43-yarder and the second
one was from 38 yards away. That is outstanding for any
high school kicker and a nice weapon that will come in
handy during conference play.
At the start of the second quarter, senior QB Brian Bol-
lenbacher ran the ball off the left side from four yards out,
to give Huron a 12-0 lead. Vermilion tried in vain during
the fi rst half to establish a running game, but the Tiger de-
fense looked solid in the middle. The Sailors didn’t pick
up their initial fi rst down until there was less than a minute
to play in the fi rst half.
Meanwhile, Bollenbacher began fi nding seniors Jake
Hillman and Sean Fantozz regularly on crossing routes.
Three straight receptions starting from the opposition’s 48,
set up an 11-yard touchdown run by Justin Hicks with 8:35
left in the second quarter. At the 4:30 mark, Huron’s spe-
cial teams blocked a Vermilion punt and recovered the ball
in the end zone (by Greg Burlovich) to take a 25-0 lead.
The 5-foot, 6-inch tall Hicks would scamper one more
time for a score – this time from 34 yards out to give the
Tigers a solid 32-0 lead at halftime.
Huron opened the third period with the ball and quickly
drove 70 yards on the arm of Bollenbacher to take a 38-0
lead. Hillman scored on a 39-yard reception with 9:36
left in the quarter. Vermilion threatened to score for the
fi rst time following a 41-yard scramble by their QB. But
the Tiger defense rose to the occasion, forcing the Sailors
to turn the ball over on downs at the Huron 29-yard line.
This time, the entire drive belonged to senior running back
Justin Hicks (9 rushes for 116 yards on the night). Three
runs later, Hicks was in the end zone for the third and fi nal
time; this time from 12 yards away giving his team a 45-0
lead with 5:51 left in the third stanza.
At this point, Coach Legando and his staff made sure
the entire team saw action. During the fi nal period, both
teams exchanged touchdowns. The fi nal Tiger touchdown
was a four-yard run by Dominic Maschari, giving his team
a 52-6 win. QB Brian Bollenbacher led Huron going 15
for 28 and 212 yards with one touchdown. Hillman caught
eight of those passes for a stellar 132 yards.
Next week’s opponent is the Norwalk Truckers in Nor-
walk.
Coach Jeff Skaggs and his young team had a great week – winning two matches, including their fi rst SBC match-up against the Edison Chargers. Here are the individ-ual results of each match:
Vermilion Match 4-1 Win:• Melissa Bodde defeated Erin Black (H)

The Oregon Grape is native to North America, and is an evergreen related to the barberry. It is consid-ered a Mahonia, and has nothing at all to do with grapes. The name comes from the purple clusters of berries that form in mid-to-late August in our USDA Zone 5.
The shrub starts it life off very differently however, with the large clusters of very fragrant fl owers that bloom in early spring. The fragrance is much like a lilac in strength,
and behaves well in a vase for home décor.
The Oregon Grape leaves are actually shaped like holly leaves, but larger. They stay on the shrub all winter, and in fall the leaves turn a beau-tiful orange-red, so it is quite colorful year-round.
The purple fruits are large pea size, and
were eaten by our an-cestors ages ago. They are quite bitter, and the seeds are quite large. The berries do make a great jelly, and if left to ferment will make a tasty wine.
Interestingly enough, the yellow fl owers make a wonderful strong yel-low dye when crushed, and the purple berries give a beautiful purple dye. This is a strange combination for any plant, and quite use-ful for those who love dying their own fabric, etc.
The Oregon Grape can be considered invasive, but if planted where the shrub can be mowed around completely, it is a joy to have in your landscape.
Happy Gardening!
