    The Port Clinton Yacht Club held its annual Recognition Dinner Saturday, honoring our people ortheir skills and connection to sailing in Port Clinton.

    BY JOHN SCHAFFNER

    Marblehead resident Carolyn Adams understands the challengethat lies ahead.

    Ottawa County is now and has long been a Democratic Partystronghold. But now that she is the chairman o the Ottawa CountyRepublican Party, she says that unity will be her new watchword.

    At its December meeting, the Ottawa County Republican CentralCommittee accepted the resignationo long-time County Chairman TerryLowe o Williston, as well as the resig-nation o vice-chairman Joyce Murphyo Port Clinton.

    Carolyn Adams and her husband Dexmoved to Marblehead rom Lima in2004 and got involved in local politicsalmost immediately. Things are di-erent in Allen County it is a strongRepublican area. There, Carolyn Adamsserved as Shawnee Township Trustee or10 years and was their chairman whenshe retired to move to Marblehead.

    She helped with campaigns or Limacity government Republican candidatesas well as Allen County candidates. She helped organize the Presi-dential Republican Headquarters in 2008 here in Ottawa County,and was appointed to the Central Committee in 2009.

    Says the new County Republican leader: I am so excited andproud the Ottawa County Republican Party Chairman! As partyleader, establishing a policy o inclusion and unity is imperative.

    Setting common goals and reaching out across the County willbe a priority, she added. I want to provide opportunities or in-volvement on all levels.

    She aces a daunting task in 2012. Former State Representativeand Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redern is back andinvolved in a big way. He is running or his old seat in the statelegislature and was very active in helping new Port Clinton MayorVince Leone deeat incumbent Debbie Hymore-Tester.

    Ottawa County has two elected Republicans in the Ottawa Coun-ty Courthouse. Both are County Commissioners (Mark Stahl andSteve Arndt) and both will be running or re-election in November.County Auditor Jodie Regal, a Democrat, has fled to run against

    Stahl.There have long been philosophical dierences in both major po-

    litical parties due in large measure to the geographic and demo-graphic nature o Ottawa County.

    Carolyn Adams, in a recent meeting with a group o Catawba Is-land Republican leaders, pledged to work to unite all segments othe Republican Party in the county. She told the group there is toomuch work to be done to spend time worrying about west end andeast end issues.

    Weather Emergency Levels

    As Sheriff of Ottawa County, I wouldlike to make sure that everyone is aware ofthe weather emergency levels for OttawaCounty. The weather emergency levels de-veloped by the prior administration will

    remain in effect. After reviewing the levelsas well as the effect of each level, this is theproper utilization of the levels in OttawaCounty.

    Level 1: This level is not used.Level 2: Roadways are hazardous because

    of conditions such as ice and blowing/drifting snow. Conditions could changeat any time. Drivers should use extremecaution and allow plenty of time for their

    travel. Contact your employer with regardto whether you should report for work.

    Level 3: Hazardous conditions such asice and blowing/drifting snow have causedsome roads to possibly be closed. Travelshould be undertaken based only on ne-cessity. Contact your employer with regardto whether you should report for work.

    Special Note: Closure of roads will notbe automatic in a Level 3. Closure of roads

    will be done after evaluation of conditionsand will be declared by the sheriff. Also,there will be no order for arrest for driv-ers on the roadways during a Level 3 unlessthere would be a declaration that roads beclosed. Deputies will utilize current trafccodes should the need arise.

    Family movie night coming up

    When Stein Hospice opened its doors in 1981, hospicecare was just starting to take root in the United States.Hospice was a new word and a new way o caring or thosewho were sick and dying.

    Now 30 years later, Stein Hospice is burgeoning. So isthe national hospice movement, which is being recog-nized during November, National Hospice and PalliativeCare Month.

    Coping with a lie-limiting illness is not easy. Its aboutthe most challenging thing a person will ever do, said J.Donald Schumacher, president and CEO o the NationalHospice and Palliative Care Organization. We want to

    make sure people know that help is available and thatswhy National Hospice and Palliative Care Month is still soimportant ater more than 35 years o observance.

    Every year more than 1.5 million Americans living witha lie-limiting illness and their amilies receive help romhospice and palliative care providers. In addition, morethan 468,000 trained volunteers contribute 22 millionhours o hospice service annually.

    Closer to home, Stein Hospice last year: Admitted 1,032 men, women and children as patients Received an average o 372 hours each week rom vol-

    unteers Held Camp Good Grie in three cities (Huron, Port

    Clinton and Tifn), reaching 71 children Provided more than 5,000 ace-to-ace grie counseling

    sessionsIn 1981, Stein Hospice began out o a tiny room in the

    basement o the ormer Providence Hospital in Sandusky.That frst year, Stein cared or just 11 patients. RolandHoman was one o them. When the Monroeville armerwas told that his cancer was terminal and he had only sixmonths to live, his amily sought out Rosalie Perry, thenurse who had started the agency.

    Rosalie assured Rolands wie Irma that she would makeher husband as comortable as possible and ollow Ro-lands wish to die in the hospital. Today, Irma is one oSteins biggest cheerleaders and Rolands daughter, NancyStallcamp is a long-time patient care volunteer or Stein.

    Rosalie said most o the patients in those early years hadcancer. It was never true that hospice was just or cancerpatients, but people seemed to believe it, she said. Oneo the biggest challenges was convincing a physician thattalking to a patient about dying was a compassionate rath-er than an unkind gesture.

    The original name o the agency was Providence Hospi-tal Hospice Association. The hospital unded the hospicethrough December 1983, when the agency became SteinHospice to honor the generosity o Rose and Sam Stein.

    In those frst years Stein oten had more volunteers inthe ofce than paid sta. Betty Ott started out volunteer-ing one day a week, and beore long was in the ofce somuch they oered her a job. Now, 26 years later, Betty stillworks at Stein, as administrative assistant to Jan Bucholz,president and chie executive ofcer.

    During Bettys tenure, the longest o any Stein employee,she worked out o three o the our company ofces. Ater

    leaving Providence, Stein moved to a little white house onColumbus Avenue, then an ofce on Madison Street, andfnally, in 1992, into its current home at 1200 SycamoreLine.

    Today Stein has grown so big that one ofce cannothouse all o its sta and services. In all, the not-or-proftagency has seven locations, including a 17-bed Care Cen-ter and ofces in the Ohio Veterans Homes in Sanduskyand Georgetown. Steins proessional team o physicians,nurses, social workers, counselors, health aides and chap-lains serve patients and amilies in seven counties (Erie,Huron, Ottawa, Sandusky, Seneca, Lorain, Brown) and thesurrounding area.

    Hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid and mostprivate insurance plans, but at Stein Hospice no one isturned away because o inability to pay.

    As we continue to grow and plan or the next 30 years,

    the needs o our patients and amilies will remain at theoreront. Excellent, comprehensive services are and willcontinue to be Steins trademark, Jan Bucholz said.

    Intensity! Just three weeks ago, the Port ClintonRedskins were in a showdown game with Perkinsat home. They got blasted. Since then, they havestruggled mightily, losing our more games in arow.

    Friday night, they were doubled up by Clyde at

    home and were held to under 30 points. I did notthink that we were ready to play on Friday night,said Redskin head coach Troy Diels. We did notplay with the energy that I would have liked to haveseen out o our guys. Clyde played pretty well andthey shot the ball particularly well, but we need todo a better job playing with enthusiasm, emotionand intensity.

    The Redskins have been having some injury is-sues with some o their key players.

    We do not knowwhen we will get themback so we need tohave our younger kidsstep up and play somebig minutes or us,says Coach Diels.

    Saturday night theytraveled to unbeatenand state ranked Nor-walk and the result waspretty much the same,as the Truckers rolledto an 80-59 victory.

    Norwalk is playingvery well right now,said Coach Diels.They have the abilityto beat you in a varietyo ways. The Thomaskid is a tremendousplayer or being only asophomore. I thoughtwe handled their pres-

    sure and traps airlywell, but we just couldnot match up with them on the deensive end.

    So, what is the solution to ending the Redskinsfve-game skid? We need to get better on the de-ensive end and we need to get the balance back inplace between our perimeter players and our postplayers, explained Coach Diels on Tuesday morn-ing.

    The Redskins are 4-7 and will play seven o theirfnal nine games in the regular season on the road,starting with Friday nights game at Edison. We

    played a lot o home games soar this year, said Coach Diels.It seems like every other year weend up our home schedule early inFebruary. We only have one morenon-league game let this year andthat is Fostoria in late February.

    Friday night, the Redskins play

    the SBC cellar-dwellers, EdisonChargers, who picked up theirfrst win o the season over Mon-roeville last Saturday. Says CoachDiels, I am sure that win will givethem some confdence going intoFriday. Edison has never been verykind to us, so we need to be readyto go on Friday night.
