The skate park has two bowls, and Brewce Martin and Jackie Welker are hoping to expand the park whenever they receive more grant money. Skate park to open Saturday By Lindsay Kriz lkriz@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — After months of preparation, Meigs County’s newest attraction, a skate park in the heart of downtown Pomeroy, will ofﬁcially open for business at 1 p.m. Dec. 12 with a grand opening celebration. Brewce Martin, the man behind Skatopia in Rutland and Racine Skate Park, said that since he received the call from Pomeroy Mayor Jackie Welker earlier in 2015 about the project that progress has been made quickly. Welker said the grant for the skate park was around $30,000 and provided by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. After receiving the OK, Martin said he went down to the spot for the park — a spot of land near Pomeroy’s ﬁre station and basketball court — and began to plan. Ground was ﬁrst broken Oct. 13 of this year. Martin said that aside from drawing up plans and digging out the area for the park, the team had to put in the wooden transitions, set the rebars, or reinforcement bars, and pour what Martin described as “100 yards of concrete” over multiple days.

POMEROY — The Meigs Local Board of Education recently approved membership into the Ohio School Boards Association Legal Assistance Fund. This will be for 2016 and the cost is $260. A student involved with SkillsUSA will make a trip to Washington, D.C., in January after the board approved an overnight ﬁeld trip for teacher Tom Cremeans, and one SkillsUSA student to attend the SkillsUSA Ohio Regional Ofﬁcers Leadership Training Institute. The trip will be Jan. 17-22. Airfare was also approved for Tammy Chapman to attend Success For All (SFA) training in See FUND | 4A POINT PLEASANT — More than 80 wreaths will be placed on the graves of veterans in three Point Pleasant cemeteries on Saturday as National Wreaths Across America Day is observed. According to Diana Johnson, volunteer location coordinator, a ceremony will be noon at the Medal of Honor Park along Jackson Avenue. Immediately following the service, volunteers will place wreaths at Lone Oak and Suncrest cemeteries. In addition, six wreaths will be placed on the graves of Revolutionary War veterans in Pioneer Cemetery. Johnson said she became interested in the Wreaths Across America project and, as a member of the Col. Charles Lewis Chapter NSDAR, got that organization involved. This is the fourth year the local group has participated. A total of 86 wreaths were sponsored this year for Point Pleasant, at a cost of $15 each. Johnson said more sponsorships are always welcome and are needed. Graves for the wreaths to be placed on are chosen in a unique way. Johnson said she walked through Lone Oak Cemetery and found 47 veteran headstones. She marked the graves with a small American ﬂag so volunteers, which include members of a local Girl Scout troop, will know where to place the wreaths. Johnson said as far as she knows, all veterans at Lone Oak will be recognized. She next walked through Suncrest Cemetery, where she found the graves of dozens of veterans. “I can’t believe the number of veterans buried in Suncrest Cemetery,” she added. Johnson said because there aren’t enough wreaths sponsored for every veteran’s grave at Suncrest, she began at the front of the cemetery and marked graves until she ran out of wreaths. While Johnson said there has been more interest shown locally this year, she can always use more volunteers to lay the wreaths. In the past, Boy Scout troops and high school cheerleaders, as well as individuals, have assisted. Anyone wanting to help this year should attend the noon service. Wreaths Across America was formed in 2007 as an extension of The Arlington Wreath Project, which began in 1992 when a Maine wreath company owner donated wreaths to decorate the graves at Arlington National Cemetery. In 2008, the U.S. Congress voted unanimously to designate December 13 as “Wreaths Across America Day.” The wreath laying is now held on the second or third Saturday of December. According to the Wreaths Across America website, in 2014 over 700,000 memorial wreaths were laid at 1,000 locations in the U.S., as well as overseas. Ceremonies were held at the Pearl Harbor Memorial, Bunker Hill, Valley Forge, and the sites of the September 11 tragedies, among others. The goal of covering Arlington National Cemetery was also accomplished last year with the placement of 226,525 wreaths.

It wasn’t about toys and presents for children, though it was about family, time together and religious expression of Christmas. If there were gifts to be given, they were simple and, for example, given by the master of the house, trickling down to servants, and perhaps, a small gift for the children, according to Craig Hesson, a historic re-enactor and supporter of Fort Randolph. This past weekend, “Christmas on the Frontier” was held at the fort and allowed visitors to step back in time to celebrate the season with cider around the fire, homemade wreaths with holly berries and more. This was the last event held at the fort for 2015 and thanks to some beautiful weather, Hesson said they’d had a great turnout of people interested in local history and a simpler time at Christmas. The fort, located at Krodel Park, will reopen in May with the Siege of Fort Randolph.

I hear about a road that’s unsafe, a highway that’s incomplete, or a bridge that fails to meet safety standards. I agree — funding our transportation infrastructure must be a priority. I want my family and every West Virginia family to drive on safe, well-maintained roads and Evan bridges. Jenkins Help is on the way. Just days ago, Contributing the House and Senate passed a fully Columnist funded, ﬁve-year highway bill — the FAST Act — that will bring billions of dollars to West Virginia to ﬁx our roads and invest in our future. The president has signed this into law, which means that Congress has achieved something that hasn’t been done in a decade — passing a multi-year highway bill. We also ensured that the FAST Act is fully paid for without increasing the gas tax, a tax increase many West Virginians oppose in these tough economic times. The need for the FAST Act and the money it will bring is great. There’s no debating the fact that our roads and bridges are in poor shape. According to a May 2015 national transportation study, West Virginia ranks the ﬁfth worst in the nation for rural pavement conditions. That means 29 percent of our rural roads are considered unﬁt for travel. Our bridges aren’t any better. The Federal Highway Administration reports that 35 percent of our states bridges — more than 2,500 bridges — are either structurally deﬁcient or functionally obsolete. The FAST Act will bring nearly $2.5 billion in transportation funding to West Virginia over the next ﬁve years, which will go a long way to building new roads, repairing existing roads, and ﬁxing our dilapidated bridges. This ﬁscal year alone, West Virginia will receive more than $420 million, and that amount will grow every year for the duration of this law. The lack of a long-term highway bill has tied the hands of our state highway department. Without knowing that funds will be there for years to come, highway ofﬁcials have held off on many major projects. Roads are not built overnight — they require years of planning and consistent, reliable funding. This bill provides just that. It also allows states to use federal funds for local bridges, many of which are in rural areas. Previously, it was difﬁcult for states to get approval to use Highway Trust Fund dollars to pay for bridges that are not part of the federal highway system, meaning that most of the bridges in our district could not be ﬁxed with these federal funds. Because of the FAST Act, West Virginia will be able to use these funds to ﬁx many of the bridges we have that fail to meet safety standards. The FAST Act also includes several provisions that will make railways safer, something that’s in all of our minds after the Mount Carbon derailment at the beginning of the year. It improves safety standards for both new and existing railroad tank cars, making them better protected in the event of a derailment or accident. The law also increases funding for highway-railroad grade crossings, which will make West Virginians safer as they drive across the at-grade train crossings across our district. Instead of making spending decisions in Washington, the FAST Act gives money to the states to decide which projects will be built and prioritized. I know the people of southern West Virginia want to see highway dollars invested in their backyards, and I will be ﬁghting for these projects and for the Third District to receive its fair share. It will be up to all of us to let those in Charleston know about the roads, bridges and projects in the Third District that we want to be completed with this money. As a member of Congress, I’m dedicated to being part of solutions that work for West Virginia. This highway bill makes meaningful investments in our roads and bridges while allowing us to plan for our state’s long-term needs. Smart investments in our highways and bridges will help keep and bring good-paying jobs to our towns and communities. If West Virginia is to get its economy back on track, we must make sure the way there is safe.

Don’t buy altered cards. Don’t buy a gift card that shows any sign of damage, especially the PIN number being scratched off on the back, which could be an indication that a scammer has compromised it. Also, when buying a gift card at a store, watch carefully as the clerk enters the value. Be careful when buying cards from third parties. Some third parties resell gift cards at a discount, but the offers may be scams. Some cards may not contain the promised value. Also, before you buy a gift card from a third-party website to use at a local business, check with the business to make sure it will honor gift cards sold by that website. Be skeptical about “free” gift cards. If you receive notice that you’ve won a free gift card, beware. Some con artists use claims of “free gift cards” as bait to get consumers to click on malicious links in emails or text messages, or as a trick to get consumers to reveal their personal information. If you ﬁnd a gift card in your stocking, try to use it as soon as possible. The sooner you use a gift card the less likely it is that you will have a problem redeeming its value.

The Wahama boys basketball team opened the 2015-16 campaign Tuesday night, falling to defending Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division champion Trimble by a 61-43 count, in Athens County. The Tomcats (1-0, 1-0 TVC Hocking) jumped out to an 18-8 lead through the ﬁrst eight minutes of play, but Wahama (0-1, 0-1) cut the deﬁcit to 20-16 early in the second stanza. THS ﬁnished the ﬁrst half with an 9-6 run, and the White Falcons trailed 29-22 at the break. The Tomcats outscored WHS 16-to-9 in the third canto, expanding the lead to 45-31 with eight minutes left in the game. Trimble’s lead was cut to 49-40 early with just over ﬁve minutes to play, but the hosts closed out the 61-43 win with a 12-3 run. Noah Estep and Travis Kearns led the way for the White Falcons, each with 11 points. Philip Hoffman and Mason Hicks both ﬁnished with seven points, Ryan Thomas added six, while Nolan Pierce rounded out WHS total with one marker. The White Falcons pulled in 17 rebounds, led by Hicks with six, while Thomas had six of the team’s 14 assists. Estep marked two of Wahama’s three blocked shots, while Thomas accounted for four of the guests’ 10 steals. WHS committed 17 turnovers and 15 fouls in the setback.

The Eastern boys basketball team produced a noteworthy effort in its 2015-16 home opener, but visiting Belpre ultimately pulled away with a 12-3 run in the second overtime Tuesday night while claiming a 77-68 decision in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup at the Eagle’s Nest in Meigs County. The Eagles (0-3, 0-2 TVC Hocking) lost both big men late in regulation because of fouls, but still found a way to hit a game-tying layup at the buzzer to force overtime. The depleted hosts also went talon-to-talon with the Golden Eagles (3-2, 2-0) during the ﬁrst extra session, which led to a 65-all contest headed into the second OT period. During that second four-minute span, however, Cole Knotts hit a trifecta at the 3:38 mark — which ultimately gave BHS a permanent cushion the rest of the way. EHS closed to within 71-68 with 39 seconds left, but the guests ended the game with a 6-0 run to wrap up the nine-point triumph. Eastern never trailed by more three possessions in the entire contest and also held four-point leads during the third and fourth frames, but the fates simply didn’t line up for the Green and Gold. Third-year EHS coach Jeremy Hill was thrilled with the effort and character that his troops showed against a deeper and likely more-talented Belpre squad. But, as Hill noted afterward, it was still hard to see such a positive performance end up going for not. “Tonight, we saw a basketball team come together and play as a group … a group that didn’t do that during our ﬁrst two games this year. It was a positive to see us come together and execute, and hopefully that will continue beyond tonight,” Hill said.”Belpre is going to be one of the top three Bryan Walters | OVP Sports teams in the league, so Eastern senior Dylan Swatzel (34) releases a shot attempt over Belpre defenders Nathan Mason and for us to come out here Tavian Miller (23) during the second half of Tuesday night’s TVC Hocking boys basketball contest in Tuppers Plains, Ohio.
