POMEROY, Ohio — After a year with no concerts, a little rain did not deter music fans from attending the first Rhythm on the River of the 2021 season. The COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 season that would have included the weekly music series beginning in June and the main event, Big Bend Blues Bash in July. “It has been a long year without our summer concerts at the Riverside Amphitheater,” said Jackie Welker, Pomeroy Blues & Jazz Society founder and owner of Court Grill. “We are very happy things are happening again.” Welker’s enthusiasm for Blues has led to the establishment of Pomeroy as a venue for many nationally recognized musicians who perform during Rhythm on the River and Big Bend Blues Bash. The annual summer music series kicked off on Friday with singer songwriter Patrick Sweany’s blend of blues and rock. Sweany grew up in Ohio, but has made Nashville his home. He has been performing in Pomeroy for the past 21 years, and said he is a longtime friend of Welker. He shared last year was difficult for musicians, and he appreciates the efforts of people like Welker to get things going again. “Musicians want to be See RHYTHM | 2 Operation Christmas Child kick-off planned AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC Staff Report (USPS 145-966) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Publishes every Tuesday through Saturday.

Senate President Matt Huffman, R-Lima, indicated the language was added to the bill to make sure municipalities are serving underserved areas in their own jurisdictions, not getting into the broadband business as profit-seeking competitors to private providers in a wider area. The lieutenant governor argues that’s not the problem. Solutions are still needed for areas — often poor or rural areas — where private providers understandably don’t operate because they can’t make enough money to justify their investment, said Husted, who also leads the state’s InnovateOhio effort. The state took a step to address that this spring by allotting an initial $20 million for the new Residential Broadband Expansion Grant Program, intended to connect more hard-to-reach homes by funding the parts of such projects that providers consider unjustifiable from a business perspective. The House version of the budget included another $190 million, but Senate Republicans excluded that funding. Huffman said more clarity was needed about the plan for using that money. �NEWS Ohio Valley Publishing Thursday, June 17, 2021 3 Senate plan would probe assets of Ohio food stamp recipients By Andrew Welsh-Huggins Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohioans receiving food stamps would have to undergo a new “asset test” that measures total worth, including the value of cars owned by anyone in a household, under a provision in the Senate’s version of the state’s upcoming two-year budget. The goal of the test is to be sure needy recipients of food stamps, or SNAP benefits as they’re now known, get what they deserve, said Senate President Matt Huffman, a Republican from Lima. “There are a lot of folks who can afford to pay for a variety of things who are still receiving these benefits,” Huffman said earlier this month. The measure incorporates elements of stand-alone legislation introduced earlier this year in the GOP-controlled Senate. Dozens of people representing food banks, legal aid groups and health care advocacy groups have testified against it. The legislation is pending in the Senate Government Oversight and Reform Committee. Opponents of that bill and its reappearance in the budget say it comes at the worst possible time, as emergency federal benefits enacted during the coronavirus pandemic expire. Those include maximum allotments for food stamp recipients, the $300 weekly unemployment payment, and a moratorium on evictions. A “train wreck of epic proportions,” Kelsey Bergfeld, director of Columbus-based Advocates for Ohio’s Future, said last week. “It will force low-income Ohioans to choose between having food and owning a car to get to work, or saving money to prepare for an emergency,” she said. Under current law, income is the only test for receiving food stamps. Ohioans making 130% of the poverty level, or about $2,350 a month for a family of three, are eligible. The Senate measure would still allow ownership of vehicles used for work, to transport TODAY IN HISTORY Music By The Associated Press From page 1 Members of the band are from Ohio and West Virginia.

Odell Beckham Jr. looked further along in his speedy recovery following reconstructive knee surgery. Coach Kevin Stefanski received another award for a 2020 season not to be forgotten. And center JC Tretter, also the NFLPA president, said players have a stronger voice about their health and safety and thinks offseason training camps could be forever changed. All of the Browns — veterans, rookies, offense, defense, the vaccinated and unvaccinated — got back to work Tuesday as the team began its threeday minicamp while moving a little closer to a season Cleveland fans can’t wait to start. It was the first time Stefanski has seen Clowney in uniform since the Browns signed the defensive end as a free agent this winter to pair with All-Pro Myles Garrett. It was also his first on-field glimpse look of Beckham, who missed the final 10 games last season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament. He had surgery in November. “He looked good to me,” Stefanski said on a Zoom call after practice. “He did some individual drills. He did routes on air. He’s still progressing through. I think he’s seven or eight months postACL surgery, and he looks a lot different than I did seven or eight months post-ACL.” Stefanski said Beckham’s status for training camp will be determined over the next few weeks, but the sight of No. 13 running and cutting was welcomed by the Browns, who managed to end their long playoff drought in 2020 and beat Pittsburgh in the wild-card round without him. Beckham was one of a number of Cleveland players — most of them offensive — who did not participate in the recent OTAs. In April, at the urging of Tretter and the union, players from more than 20 teams said they would exercise their rights in collective bargaining and not attend the voluntary workouts, a decision that probably rankled some coaches. But Tretter said Stefanski was understanding and handled the offseason properly, and that players across the league feel empowered. “I think this was the first time in a long time players felt like they actually had a choice, and I think we created an environment that allowed guys to make a clear, honest decision of whether they should attend,” he said. Tretter, who is fully vaccinated, said concerns over COVID-19 spread was the impetus in taking a harder look at offseason programs. He’s cited statistical data showing a 23% reduction in missedtime injuries and a 30% decrease in concussions last season when the league enacted protocols to complete the season. Tretter said giving players the choice on how they spend their offseason is long overdue, and See BROWNS | 7 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Thursday, June 17 Softball Man at Wahama*, 6 p.m. * — indicates an if necessary third game in the series.

Wildcats even series with Point By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Now it’s simply a case of who wants it most. Visiting Logan broke a 1-all tie with a 4-run outburst in the top of the fifth and eventually held on for a 7-3 victory over Point Pleasant in Game 2 of the Class AA Region IV tournament held Tuesday night in Mason County. The series is now tied at one game apiece, with the all-important third and final game slated for 6 p.m. Wednesday night at Logan High School. The host Big Blacks (21-9) established a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second as a Riley Oliver sacrifice fly to right allowed Hunter Bush to tag up and score from third. The Wildcats (23-6), however, answered in the top of the third with an RBI single from Alden Slack that allowed Tyler Fenwick to come home for a 1-all contest. After a scoreless fourth, LHS decided to shake things up a bit by having some players lay down bunts. Garrett Williamson started the fifth with a single, then a Fenwick bunt turned into an overthrow at first that allowed Williamson to come all the way around to score for what proved to be a permanent 2-1 advantage. Slack followed by being “We were in the perfect situation that we wanted to be in tonight. We go down to a hostile environment and win Game 1 at Logan, then we bring the series home. We just seemed a little bit complacent and a little bit flat tonight. Logan brought the energy and intensity, and they played like they should have … like their season was on the line.” – Andrew Blain PPHS coach hit by a pitch to put runners on the corners, then Konnor Lowe doubled in both Fenwick and Lowe for a 4-1 cushion. Carson Kirk followed with a sacrifice fly to right that allowed Slack to come plateward for a 5-1 lead midway through the fifth. PPHS rallied in its half of the sixth as Kyelar Morrow delivered a 2-out double, then came around to score on a Joel Beattie single for a 5-2 contest. Beattie later scored on a Tanner Mitchell double that landed just inside the foul line in left field, cutting the deficit down to 5-3 after six complete. The Wildcats added some insurance in the top of the seventh as Fenwick led the inning off with a single, then Slack reached on an error that allowed Fenwick to come around and score for a 6-3 contest. Lowe singled home Slack one batter later to wrap up the 4-run outcome. The Big Blacks were outhit by a sizable 13-6 overall margin and also committed five of the six errors in the contest. Logan also stranded 10 of the 15 runners left on the bags. Afterwards, PPHS coach Andrew Blain acknowledged that it’s now do-or-die time for his troops … much like it was on Tuesday night for the Wildcats. As the ninth-year mentor noted, the team that seemed to want it more on Tuesday night was the team that got it. That’s something that Blain is hoping will change over the next 24 hours. “We were in the perfect situation that we wanted to be in tonight. We go down to a hostile environment and win Game 1 at Logan, then we bring the series home,” Blain said. “We just seemed a little bit complacent and a little bit flat tonight. Logan brought the energy and intensity, and they played like they should have … like their season was on the line. “I thought we were a bit too passive early on, waiting for things to happen instead of trying to make them happen. We probably played more not to lose instead of to win tonight, but give credit to Logan tonight. They outplayed us.” Fenwick was impressive in picking up the winning decision as the southpaw allowed three runs, six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings while striking out five. Joel Beattie took the loss for Point Pleasant after surrendering five runs, nine hits and three walks over 4-plus innings of work while fanning three. Mitchell paced the hosts with three hits and also drove in a run, while Morrow, Beattie and Bush also had a hit each in the setback. Lowe led Logan with three hits and three RBIs, while Fenwick, Korbin Bostic and Dawson Maynard added two safeties each. Williamson, Slack, Kirk and Jake Ramey also had a hit apiece for the victors. With a win on Wednesday night, Point Pleasant would advance to the state tournament for the first time since the 2012 campaign. © 2021 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.

We are very in tune with that. When the vast majority are saying that little wear and tear that we get rid of by getting rid of the offseason that makes our bodies feel significantly better by the end of the season, that is good, and that is what we fight for.” After players met with Stefanski, the Browns modified their OTAs, holding no on-field workouts the first week and then seven practices over the next two. Stefanski described the practices as “passing camps.” “We know the type of guy Kevin is and this organization,” said Tretter, who skipped the OTAs to work out with his fellow offensive linemen. “So we knew he wasn’t going to kill us.

And once we saw it, it was just each person’s decision under the CBA that they could either volunteer to go or volunteer not to go.” Tretter said his decision was a no-brainer. “I know if I go to OTAs at this point, there’s really only two things that can happen,” he said. “One, I’m going to have more wear and tear on my joints. That’s not great for me. And two, I have an increased likelihood of a season-ending injury by practicing.” The pace of Tuesday’s workout was noticeably slower, and Stefanski said that was by design. BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Nick Chubb wants to go on a long run with the Browns. Entering the final season of his rookie contract, Chubb, who has rushed for 2,561 yards over the past two seasons and become a fan favorite in Cleveland, said his agent has had talks with the team about a long-term contract extension. “It would mean a lot,” Chubb said on Zoom as the Browns began their mandatory minicamp. “Cleveland drafted me however many years ago it was and trusted me and put their faith in me to come here and help build this culture. “I feel like Cleveland is where I want to be and hopefully everything can work out in that direction.” A second-round pick in 2018, (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN PUBLIC MEETING FOR THE RESIDENTS, PROPERTY & BUSINESS OWNERS OF THE GREEN TOWNSHIP SEWER PHASE 2 AREA EMPLOYMENT On Thursday, July 1, 2021, at 6:30 PM in Gallia Academy High School Cafeteria located at 2855 Centenary Rd, the Gallia County Commissioners will hold a public meeting for the purpose of discussing a centralized wastewater collection and treatment system for the property owners of the Green Township sewer phase 2 area.

Many fans of the band Confederate Railroad first became acquainted with the group in the early 1990’s when it had a string of hits on country radio. Those hits include their first, “She Took It Like A Man” which went to number 26 followed by “Jesus and Mama” and “Queen of Memphis” which both went to the top of the charts. These were followed by “Trashy Women”, “When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back”, and “She Never Cried.” According to the band’s official website, “‘Trashy’ would lead to a Grammy nomination and become their signature song. That album with six hits and nearly three million sales brought Confederate the Academy of Country Music’s Best New Group Award in 1993 as well as numerous nominations from the Country Music Association and the British Country Music Foundation.” More hits followed including what the band’s website describes as one of the group’s most popular songs “Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind” which became a number one video as well. “Elvis and Andy” and “Summer in Dixie” would also follow as hits. Their overall totals are 18 charted hits and five million albums sold and the band reportedly plays 100 or so dates a year. “From rowdy country to raw emotion, a Confederate Railroad concert today covers a wide range of feelings,” the band’s website stated. “Young people will be there rocking to ‘Trashy Women’, while their parents and even grandparents will likely be singing along to ‘Jesus and Mama.” Band members are Danny Shirley, lead singer and vocalist, Mark Dufresne on drums, Mo Thaxton on bass and vocals, Rusty Hendrix on lead guitar and Joey Recker Information found at, and provided by, http:// www.confederaterailroad. com/. Buck was born in the hills of West Virginia and was a 2018 contestant on NBC’s “The Voice.” According to the Mikele Buck Band’s website, “His original songs are a blend of all his musical influences, including Steve Earle, Garth Brooks, Travis Tritt and Red-Dirt artists like Randy Rodgers Band and Reckless Kelly. After returning from the Iraq war in 2005, Mikele went to Nashville to record his first CD and established his first band near Greenville, N.C. This band’s popularity grew and soon they were opening up for major acts such as Jason Aldean and Joe Nichols. From NC night clubs and fairs, the Mikele Buck Band began drawing record crowds of their own. His latest EP release has been pouring through car speakers all over the east coast, with the crowd favorites ‘With Me Now’ and ‘In Came You’ at the helm.” The band consists of Mikele, Brandon Ross on lead guitar, vocals, Caleb Keen on bass, vocals, Ray Waggoner on drums and Sarah Anderson, fiddle, accessory, vocals. Over the last four years, the Mikele Buck Band has opened up for numerous national acts including Jon Pardi, Brett Eldredge, Jason Micheal Carol, David Nail, The Cadillac Three, Hunter Hayes, Lady Antebellum, Reckless Kelly, Jerrod Niemann, Jimmie Allen and Parker McCollum. Information found at, and provided by, http:// www.themikelebuckband. com/. Christian will literally be returning home with his performance of River Rec. A native of Gallia County, his talent, and music, recently received national exposure on the latest season of NBC’s “The Voice” after choosing “Team Blake.” Christian spoke to the Gallipolis Daily Tribune this spring, saying of Shelton, “It is absolutely a dream to work with an artist that has all the accomplishments that [Shelton] does under his belt. He’s super honest. He’ll tell you if something is not working and he will help you figure it out. He’s very artist oriented and he understands it.” Christian said it was an honor to represent Gallia County during the experience. “Going out there and being able to represent [people in Gallia County] and my hometown, that was really humbling,” Christian said. “I want Confederate Railroad PERFORMANCE TIMES FOR JULY 3 7 p.m., Connor Christian; 8 p.m., Mikele Buck Band; 9 p.m., Confederate Railroad. people to know even if you grow up in a small town, you can still make it. You can still have dreams. You can still be on a big stage like that and it doesn’t matter where you come from. If you want something bad enough, it’s possible.” Christian said dreams should not be something kept to yourself. He believes that sharing one’s success is how the community grows. “I want people in the community to keep supporting each other and lifting each other up and I think that’s the way we’re going to become better as people and a community,” Christian said. Christian will be busy performing in the local area. In addition to playing not only at River Rec on Saturday, July 3, he is the headliner at Pomeroy’s “Kickin’ Summer Bash” on Friday, June 18. He’s also performing at the Gallia County Fair on Friday, Aug. 6. Christian will be the grand marshal for River Rec’s parade which begins at noon on Saturday, July 3. “The Chamber of Commerce and River Recreation Committee are excited to be able to have the Independence Day Parade as part of our Connor Christian River Recreation Festival again this year,” Josh Wellington, executive director of the Chamber, said. “The parade is always a key part of our festival and we are beyond pleased to welcome Gallia County native Connor Christian not only to this year’s entertainment lineup but to also have him as our 2021 Grand Marshal.” Admission is free to River Rec. © 2021 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.

AC/DC once said, “If you got the dollar, we got the song / Just wanna boogie woogie all night long,” and The Steepwater Band surely embodies this lip-smacking urge to get some in this mean old world, befitting the group’s Chicago roots and their earthy understanding of crackling city blues. 8 p.m. — Nikki Hill Independence has always come easy for vocalist/lyricist/bandleader Nikki Hill, raised by a single mother and two older sisters in close quarters throughout Durham, North Carolina. This inspired not only her confidence at a young age, but a selfreliance and strong curiosity, which informed Hill’s interest in art, reading and writing. The moment she could break free from the long Sunday sermons and weekday choir practices, Nikki traded the pews for barstools, sneaking into venues when necessary, and was soon immersed in North Carolina’s roots scene. She felt oddly comfortable, finding a direct connection between the energy she saw at local shows in Chapel Hill, and the intense praise dancing, gospel shouting church services she attended and sang with up until she was a teen. Seeing everything from Dexter Romweber to Carolina Chocolate Drops, Bo Diddley to Motorhead, her new sermons came from rockers and bartenders, cowpunks and starving artists. Everyone had a story, and very soon, Nikki was in the mix herself, immersed in music, getting into trouble, and making stories of her own. 10 p.m. — Headliner Davy Knowles Knowles first burst onto the scene in 2007 with his band ‘Back Door Slam’, garnering rave reviews, national US television appearances (Jimmy Kimmel Live, Good Morning America), extensive triple-A radio airplay, and two top 5 Billboard Blues charting albums. Since then, Knowles has independently released two more studio albums, 2014’s ‘The Outsider’ and 2016’s ‘Three Miles From Avalon’, which also hit the top 5 on the Billboard Blues chart. Tickets for both days are available at bigbendbluesbash.com. :KHQHYHU�WKHUH V�D�SURMHFW�WR�PDNH� RXU�FRPPXQLW\�D�EHWWHU�SODFH�WR�OLYH�� \RX�ZLOO�DOZD\V�ILQG�RXU�ORFDO� PHUFKDQWV�ULJKW�WKHUH�GRLQJ�DOO�WKH\� FDQ�WR�KHOS��)URP�GRQDWLQJ�WR�D�ORFDO� IXQGUDLVHU�WR�VSRQVRULQJ�WKH�NLGV � EDOO�WHDPV��WKH\ UH�DOZD\V�WKHUH� 3OHDVH�VKRS�DQG�LQYHVW�ORFDOO\�� OH-70240418 that sends them further into the realm of cosmic American music. It is a new representation of the groups collaborative song crafting skills that embraces their influences, both new and old. 3 p.m. — Red Stone Souls Red Stone Souls is a 70’s influenced Heavy Rock, Hard Blues, Garage and Psychedelic Rock N’ Roll tossed into a blender and turned on high band. They have busted down the doors of the “New Generation” rock scene. The band layers Ian Kirwan’s vintage “Dirty” guitar work and road-seasoned vocals with dynamic riffs and lyrical stories to create a genre defining sound chocked full of rock for a new generation of fans. The band also features, Beau Felix on guitar, Kevin Bernard on bass and Travis Erickson shotgun style on drums. This potent combination cranks out, blistering micro-anthems embodying that basic Rock N’ Roll steamroller aesthetic. 4 p.m. — Funky Mojo Daddy The Chicagoland blues rock supergroup, Funky Mojo Daddy, plots a diverse, high-energy performance, outfitted with world-travelled musicians successful in their own endeavors. The seasoned blues veterans now seek to spread a passionate, creative sound. The group consists of a trio of guitar players, a top rhythm section and four versatile vocalists. Kenny Kinsey leads on bass and vocals, with Jerry Porter on drums, Jeff Massey on slide guitar and Ryan Frahm on guitar.
