Holliday Herald Writer Nearly a decade ago, plenty of fans came to see Jeremy Bigelow play as a right winger on the Northview High School hockey team and as a wide receiver on the school’s football team. His friends and family members, who call themselves Team Bigelow, are hoping some of those fans will come to play golf for Jeremy, in a tournament being held to provide funds for his future care. Jeremy was injured in a car accident eight months ago, and is currently receiving treatment for injuries that have made him a C3/C4 quadiplegic (paralyzed from the shoulders down). He has made a great deal of progress in a variety of medical centers and hospitals, but faces expensive continuing care, and his friends are hoping to help with those costs. The Inaugural Biggie Classic will be held June 25 at the Legacy Golf Course in Ottawa Lake, MI. Jeremy’s lifelong friend Chris Garris and several other friends and family members are working with the ThreeSixtyFive Foundation to plan the event, which begins with registration at 12:30 p.m. and a shotgun start at 1:30 p.m. He provides the following information for those who would like to participate—by playing, sponsoring, and/ or providing financial assistance. The format of the event is a Scrambles event for 4-man teams. The cost for a foursome is $300; individuals can play for $75. The cost includes a golf cart, greens fees, a meal ticket and a drink ticket for the course. The dinner is a buffet style home-cooked Italian dinner that will begin at 5:00 p.m. Garris notes that non-golfers are invited to attend the dinner only, at a cost of $20, and invites those who choose not to golf to consider making a donation in support of the event. (Those who wish to donate may make checks payable to Team Bigelow. Those who are making a tax deductible business donation should make checks payable to ThreeSixtyFive Foundation, Attn: Team Bigelow. All proceeds go to the Jeremy Bigelow Fund for Jeremy). “There are several opportunities for sponsorship at this event,” Garris explains. “We are offering Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum Sponsorships with different ‘benefits.’ A Bronze sponsor ($100) will receive a shared 9” x 12” sign and a ‘goodie bag,’ as well as the company name and business information attached to treats handed out to all golfers. A Silver sponsor ($250) will receive a 9” x 12” sign on the course and the company name on the gifts given to golfers. The Gold sponsors ($500) receive a 12” x 24” sign, a golf item (such as a glove or towel given to the other golfers) with their logo on it, as well as a personalized commemorative plaque. Those who purchase a Platinum sponsorship ($800 and up) receive a Foursome package, an 18” x 24” sign, golf items with the company logo, and a personalized commemorative plaque.” Chris Garris hopes that Jeremy Bigelow’s condition permits him to be present at the Biggie classic, saying, “He is looking forward to being there, and he is excited to see old friends. He’s already made great progress and continues to touch others with his positive attitude and his strong faith. We hope to have a large turnout for this event to help him.” Those seeking more information about the Biggie Classic may call Andy Shock (419 376- 3162), Brad Bigelow (419 261-1916), Dave Shock (419 276-0896) or Tim Garris (419 344- 2455).

Property Revaluation Underway By Christine A. Holliday Herald Writer The Red Shirts are coming! The Red Shirts are coming! Lucas County residents might be noticing camera-toting, red shirt- wearing visitors to their neighborhoods, but they need not fear a revolution. The visitors are contractors doing work for the office of Lucas County Auditor Anita Lopez. They are working on the 2010 property revaluation being conducted by the Auditor’s office, and will be “in the field” until photos of all residential and commercial properties have been taken. Ohio law requires the Auditor to reappraise all real property every year years, and to update values every three years. The last revaluation in Lucas County was completed in 2006, and the last update in 2009, so 2012 will be a revaluation year. A brochure offered by the contractors notes that the purpose of the 2012 revaluation is, “… to equitably adjust and equalize property values to reflect changes in the marketplace since January 1, 2006. It further notes, “Since property values do not change uniformly, some values have increased, some stayed the same, while others have decreased since 2006.” The independent contractors have been hired by local appraisal companies to take photos of all properties in Lucas County, both residential and commercial. They work Monday through Saturday, between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., For everyone’s safety, they are not permitted to go into any homes they visit, and should not ask to be admitted to anyone’s home. They will not go into the back yard if there are dogs there, and they have been instructed not to go into backyards of homes where only children but no adults are present.

COMMUNITYDave White Chevrolet

Steps up to the Plate for Sylvania Area Recreation Baseball As Part of National Chevy Youth Baseball Program Dave White Chevrolet to provide Sylvania Area Recreation Baseball with new equipment, monetary donation, instructional clinics; Additional funds via Chevy Vehicle Giveaway

Dave White Chevrolet is supporting the Sylvania community through a partnership with Sylvania Area Recreation Baseball. The dealership will provide baseball equipment, instructional clinics, a monetary donation, and an opportunity to raise an additional $10,000 in funds through a Chevy vehicle giveaway-fundraiser. The effort by Dave White Chevrolet is part of the Chevy Youth Baseball initiative being rolled out across the nation from March through July 2011.

“Baseball is a great American past-time and Chevrolet is proud to have a longstanding history with this tradition on a national level. Dave White Chevrolet is bringing that level of commitment for youth baseball to the Sylvania community, where our customers and

their families live,” said Joe Mehling, General Manager for Dave White Chevrolet. “Our youth baseball program in Sylvania is truly cherished and we are happy and excited to support the kids in a significant way.”

Dave White Chevrolet presented the Sylvania Area

Recreation Baseball with equipment kits complete with equipment bags, baseball buckets, dugout managers, and Chevy Youth Baseball t-shirts. The sponsorship includes clinics with experienced instructors from former MLB/MiLB players and coaches or the Ripken

Baseball professional staff.In addition, a one-time

monetary donation check was presented by Dave White Chevrolet to the Sylvania Area Recreation Baseball. The team also will have an opportunity to raise additional funds for their use as part of a Chevy Youth Baseball

Fundraiser. Sponsored leagues across the country will each receive 2,000 fundraiser entry tickets to distribute for a suggested donation, and the league will keep 100 percent of proceeds raised. At the end of the fundraiser, there will be five winners of a Chevy Equinox or Chevy

Cruze vehicle of choice (up to $30,000 in value), and in each participating market there will be a secondary prize of a home entertainment center valued at $1,000.

Chevrolet is recognized on the national level as the “Official Vehicle of Major League Baseball.” “Chevrolet vehicles are made for families and we hope the kids or their parents will consider a Chevrolet as an official vehicle of their household,” said Mehling.

Chevrolet has expanded its support of MLB to the youth baseball players in communities across the country through the Chevy Youth Baseball program. The Chevy Youth Baseball program began in Atlanta in 2006. In 2010, more than 980 Chevrolet dealers participated in Chevy Youth Baseball and helped raise more than $3 million for youth baseball programs across the USA. Now going into its sixth year, more than $10 million has been contributed to youth baseball in the communities where Chevrolet’s customers live, work, and play. Currently, 1,423 Chevrolet dealers are participating in this national program.

Rob Conover of Sylvania Recreation receives Dave White Chevrolet’s check from Murray Dennison and Joe Mehling.

will collect data about any changes to the property (new construction, removal of buildings, addition of bathrooms, etc.) by talking to the property owner or by observation if the owner is not available. They will take photos of the front and back of the property and leave a brochure (if they have talked to the owner) or a hangtag on the door if the owner is not at home. Both the brochure and the hangtag contain phone

numbers to the Auditor’s office for residents who have questions about the process, or if they wish to schedule an interior inspection.

The pictures taken will identify the location and general condition of the property, and will be used as the updated photo on the Auditor’s Real Estate Information System (AREIS). Officials in the Auditor’s office will use the information gathered to do the Revaluation. They will mail value change letters to property owners throughout the

summer of 2012, giving information about current and new value as well as property data.

The data collection part of the Revaluation is expected to be completed by the end of July, 2011. Once a property owner receives a Value Change Notice, he will have several opportunities to discuss the value with the Auditor’s office—through mail, phone, and in-person forums.

Those with questions now are encouraged to call the Education and Outreach Department at 419 213-4406.

Junior engineering students at Northview High School were assigned to design and float a boat made of card board. The educational activity teaches students how to apply the skills they have learned in school to a practical but fun application in the real world. The boats were launched at Olander Lake.

Photos are provided by Nancy Crandell, Sylvania Public Schools.

Nicki Foti, Ross Wagner and Andrew Wait remain seaworthy as they paddle their way across Olander Lake.

The far boat crew of Kyle Lammie and James Donofrio try to stay afloat as the boat by Austin Schwierking and Chris Jablonski begin to overtake them in a race to the other side.

Still afloat and strong oarsmen Austin Schwierking and Chris Jablonski guide their boat across the lake at Olander Park.

As the place where business begins in Ohio, Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted’s office has launched the “Ohio Business Profile” to raise awareness about Ohio companies that are creating interesting products, offering outstanding service,

contributing to their local communities and employing Ohioans in the process.

The Business Services Division of the Ohio Secretary of State’s office is where companies incorporate and file to do business in Ohio. In

addition to working to make every interaction with Ohio employers as straightforward and hassle free as possible, the Secretary believes that in the current economic climate, highlighting the good things going on in Ohio’s business environment is critical.

“Ohioans will be both surprised and proud of the sheer diversity and offerings of Ohio entrepreneurs and the wide reach of these companies across the nation and around the world,” Husted said.

The Profile will periodically feature a handful of diverse businesses with a common theme on the Secretary of State’s website and social media outlets. The program kicks of this June with five Ohio businesses that can help prepare for a family picnic: JTM Food Group, Premier Produce, Smith’s Dairy Products Company, Ballreich’s Potato Chips and Longaberger. This regular feature is intended to be interactive and Ohioans are encouraged to submit companies and themes to the Secretary of State’s office for future Profiles.

In May, Secretary Husted also released his first monthly report of new business filings, another indicator of business activity that he hopes will add to the overall discussion as government and business work together to turn Ohio’s economy around.

“As we work to improve Ohio’s overall business climate, the demonstrated successes of existing Ohio companies can be one of the best marketing tools we have to encourage others to invest here,” Husted said.

To view June’s Ohio Business Profile or submit an Ohio company for future consideration, visit http://www.sos.state.oh.us/SOS/OBP.aspx.

The Week Ahead: June 19 through June 25, 2011

Aries (March 21-April 19)This week will be filled

with a list of chores and projects. In reality, these are the things you have left undone for a long time. Stay in the moment and focus on what needs to be done. Make the necessary decisions and move forward with a plan of action.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)Let go of your desire

to control situations. For everyone’s sake, let go of

all the things you think you need to fix and allow others to find their own solution. When you accept this as truth, everyone receives their own guidance and things begin to fall into place.

Gemini (May 21-June 21)House work and chores

will occupy your time this week. You would also be wise to look closer inside yourself and do some work there as well. Things have been difficult lately making you unsure of what to do. Quiet your mind and have faith that the guidance will come.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)Emotional ups and

downs have left you feeling drained lately. Finally, there might be some light at the end of the tunnel. Surrender the struggle and learn to go with the flow. Peace will come when you realize that there’s something to be learned in the highs and lows.

Leo (July 23-August 22)This week is about

lessons learned and lessons forgotten. When it comes to relationships you should be true to yourself and honest with your partner. It’s important to share your real feelings but equally important to listen. Otherwise, you may be revisiting old issues.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

You may feel like you are missing out on something

this week. But don’t fret. There’s a lot of energy swirling around causing you to re-examine everything. It’s time to let go of illusions and accept what is true about yourself and others. Clarity brings peace of mind.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

It’s time to do clear out the clutter in your life. Also, it’s important to get rid of those things that bring you down or drain your energy. Once you get rid of the people and things that complicate your life, you’ll find positive things start to unfold for you.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

This week is the time to make amends with someone you’ve judged harshly. A jester of humility will go a long way to mend hurt feelings. And remember, holding the negative energy of judgment is actually more destructive to you than the person you are judging.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

It seems everyone is turning to you for help this week. Energies are particularly high right now and some people around you are in meltdown. It’s important for you to stay grounded so others can draw on your strength. Be supportive but they must find answers for themselves.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

It’s time for you to stand

up for yourself. Some of your friends and family members have taken advantage of your good nature, and it’s time for that to change. Release any fear of retaliation. For the best outcome, speak from your heart without any expression of anger.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

The problems of the last few weeks have finally come to a head. These distractions slowed you down and threw off your normal routine. Remember that everything happens for a reason. Although it doesn’t always make sense, in all things we should give thanks.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

If love makes the world go around, then your world is spinning like a top. This week you and your love partner are totally in tune with one another. Communication is flowing easily between you and your love life hot and spicy. What more could you ask for?

If you watch old episodes of The Andy Griffith Show, a few things probably stand out in your mind. The catchy whistled theme song, of course, and the town jail where much action took place. Well, Sylvania had an old jail, too. Barney Fife didn’t lock himself in OUR jail by mistake, but it still has a colorful past!

H. G. Randall was interviewed in the 1940s about Sylvania’s first jail. He said the original jail in town was under the back end of Howard’s stone building, about two lots down from Main Street, on the southeast corner of Main and Monroe. It was a basement room, and served as the local pokey. Mr Randall shared: “One character in town, who was blind and sawed wood for a living, frequently got drunk and was put in the jail to sober up. He usually sang ‘Hard Times in the Sylvania Jail’ there.” Imagine that, we had our own Otis Campbell!

I found a few tidbits about the old jail in the archives of the Sylvania Area Historical Society. There was a cancelled check drawn on Farmers & Merchants Bank of Sylvania dated October 19, 1928. The heading said Clerk’s Office Corporation of Sylvania, Lucas County, Ohio. It stated that the Treasurer of Sylvania Village would pay, out of the general fund, to E. E. Double, the sum of five dollars. It was for “closet seat in jail”, and was signed by Park Wagonlander, Village Clerk. With nothing more to go on, I’m going to assume that Mr. Double was building a bench of some sort for the prisoners. He owned Sylvania Plumbing, Heating and Tin Shop back then.

That could be a whole episode, if we use our imagination. Sheriff Andy Taylor hired the local handyman to build the seat. But Aunt Bea kept getting in his way hanging the new

curtains she had made. Little Opie kept spilling the keg of nails, and Barney couldn’t find the keys to the cell. Well, you get the picture. Hopefully, such shenanigans didn’t go on in Sylvania’s jail….

There is a copy of an old undated newspaper article that talks about the old jail. The heading is “A Rickety Jail Blamed for the Death of a Young Man.” It stated that Sylvania was liable to have trouble of its own on account of the condition of its lockup. Ignace S. had brought suit against the village corporation for ten thousand dollars, for the death of his son, Peter S., caused by being confined in the city jail.

The petition stated that Peter was kept in the jail “for some misdemeanor for about two days, and the jail was so poorly constructed and ventilated and not sufficiently heated, and had become damp and unhealthful.” Peter contracted a cold which settled on his lungs and caused his death. It further stated “As he had previously been healthy and robust and was the sole support of his father, the old gentleman considers himself damaged to the extent of $10,000.” I couldn’t find any record of the lawsuit result, and I have removed the last name for family privacy.

Hmmm, there’s no Mayberry episode like that. The singing Darling family might have breezed through town, or Helen Crump may have tried to set a trap to get Andy to marry her, but they sure didn’t show a predicament like this.

It’s a good thing that Sylvania has come a long way since then. Our old hoosegow is long gone, and our city is definitely no Mayberry.

Ignite Your Light and Let It ShineWe live in a fragile

society. It seems that all you hear is the continuous buzz about bullies, self esteem problems and our fractured efforts in attaining perfection. Young girls and young men are fraught with trepidation about not measuring up. Today that problem spills over into young adulthood and “insignificance” seems to be a national problem.

Many young people are suffering with poor self image and become depressed and discouraged about their lives. For them, this trauma is real and there is no relief from their pain. Enter Katy Perry, a vivacious and electrifying performer who has addressed this issue with her new single Fireworks.

The lyrics speak to the insecurities that we all face. Many of us, no matter what our age, can relate to feeling like a plastic bag drifting through the wind or a house of cards one blow from caving in. Katy’s song

encourages you to look into your soul and realize that everyone has a spark. You have to find that ignition switch to light up your own life.

Many try to fit unsuccessfully into a group when what they really are is an original. They need to own the night, shoot across the sky and let their colors burst. While hard to comprehend at first, if most would only try, they would find that they shine much brighter than they did as a member of the group they so wanted to be a part of.

So what can we do to encourage self expression and originality? We begin by listening to the song with our younger children. Then,

take the time to discuss with them the importance of being true to who they are. Teach them that no one is a waste of space and that they are original and absolutely cannot be replaced.

All the problems of their young lives, while significant at this time, really will turn out to be small problems. While they might seem like a hurricane at the moment the crisis can be replaced with confidence just as, according to the song, the amazement of a rainbow often follows a storm. Help them to see that optimism begins within and a letting go of negativity can move mountains. When they comprehend that their attitude about themselves is most important, their self esteem will soar. This results in achieving their hope and dreams driving their success for life.

When they do find their new path their heart will glow but, more importantly, they will realize that their self worth is not tied to

the opinions of others but to the respect they feel for themselves. They will get the message that they are fireworks just waiting to go boom, boom, boom even brighter than the moon. As they shoot across the sky the reaction will be amazement at what they have accomplished.

I don’t know why Katy Perry wrote Fireworks but I believe that perhaps along her way to stardom she might have struggled with the some insecurities growing up. Her recognition of this conflict in others and her encouragement to change the way we perceive ourselves is significant in light of the continuous “need to be the best” syndrome.

This song should be heard by young children so that they realize that they are amazing in their own way. Some may bloom early and some later but all have a special talent that is waiting to ignite like a Firework in the Night.

The Week Ahead:Aug. 24 through Aug. 30.

Area residents with a passion and enjoyment of music are invited to attend a unique ensemble performance featuring 10 harpists as Owens Community College’s Center for Fine and Performing Arts serves as host to the fourteenth annual American Harp Society Day Ensemble Concert on Thursday, June 23.

Presented the Northwest Ohio Chapter of the American Harp Society, the concert will begin at 7 p.m. in the Center for Fine and Performing Arts Mainstage Theatre. Owens’ Toledo-area Campus is located on Oregon Road in Perrysburg Township. The performance is free and open to the public.

“The Northwest Ohio Chapter of the American Harp Society is very excited to collaborate with Owens Community College and present a fun and dazzling performance for the surrounding communities,” said Denise Grupp-Verbon, Owens Adjunct Instructor of Fine and Performing Arts and Co-Founder of Harp Week. “This year’s concert will feature 10 harpists of various ages and diverse backgrounds. Attendees will not be disappointed with the musical variety and stylistic flourishes of this year’s presentation.”

The concert is the culmination of Harp Week, which is four days (June 20-23) of ensemble rehearsals and practical application workshops sponsored in

part by the Northwest Ohio Chapter of the American Harp Society and the College’s Center for Fine and Performing Arts. Harp Week is open to any harpist who has played for at least one year.

Harpists ranging from beginners to professionals will be strumming both familiar and original tunes throughout the evening concert.

The American Harp Society was founded in 1962 in response to the growing needs of harpists as performers, teachers and students.
