Rio Grande to
provide water,
sewer to group
home property
agillenwater@civitasmedia.com

RIO GRANDE
— Even though the
annexation of property into the Village of
Rio Grande — property where a proposed
group home will be
constructed — was
recently denied, the
village will still provide
water and sewer services to the facility.
During a meeting Monday, the Rio
Grande Village Council
passed a resolution by a
5-to-1 vote allowing for
the provision of water
and sewer services to
a Cherry Ridge Road
property that is not in
the corporation.
This resolution came
after the Gallia County
General Health District, via letter, contacted the village stating
that state law requires
that these services be
provided to the facility
even without annexation.
The letter, addressed
to Mayor Matt Easter,
is signed by Barbara
Bradley, director of
environmental health,
and cites Ohio Revised
Code section 6117.51
and Ohio Administrative Code section 370129-02, which requires,
according to the letter,
that any property within “easy access” to a
public sewer to connect
to the public sewer.
“Easy access,”
according to the letter,
is defined as 200 feet
from the nearest boundary of the right-of-way
within which the public
sewer is located.
“… [I]f the Rio
Grande Public Sewer is
within 200 feet of the
[proposed] home, the
Gallia County Health
Department has no
choice than to order
the home connected to
the Rio Grande Public
Sewer,” the letter reads.
Easter reported this
past week that, as the
village did not want
to set the precedent
of being “forced” into
providing water and

sewer services to any
particular property, the
resolution was passed
on Monday night allowing the group home to
be connected to the
public sewer system by
a vote of council.
“The health department was going to force
us and we didn’t want
to be forced,” Easter
reported. “Since the
house is going there
anyway, there’s no reason to deny this, and
we’re hoping that the
[county] commissioners take a look at that
when they are asked
about the annexation
process. It’s coming
anyway, so there’s no
reason to deny it.”
The mayor further
pointed to the resolution passed by the
council which contains
several stipulations surrounding the home.
These stipulations
include that the home
built on the property
will always be a six-bed
or less ICF-MR —
which stands for Intermediate Care Facility
for individuals with
Mental Retardation —
and that ResCare Ohio
will “continue to pursue
the annexation of the
property.” Further, if
the annexation is not
approved, ResCare and
the village will “agree
to enter a maintenance
agreement.”
Discussions surrounding the group
home, that will reportedly be under 24-hour
supervision by ResCare, began after the
Rio Grande zoning
board passed a motion
to accept the plans
for the home in early
August. The village
council subsequently
approved the annexation of the property by
a 4-1 vote.
At a meeting that followed before the Raccoon Township Trustees on Aug. 19, where
it was requested that
the trustees release the
property for annexation
into the village, concerns surrounding the

Writing her own story

Submitted photos

Charlene and the late Bob Hoeflich, pictured here, were courted to The Daily Sentinel in 1967 and a Hoeflich has been in that office,
reporting on the lives of the people in Meigs County, ever since.

The Daily Sentinel’s Charlene Hoeflich steps away
from newspaper career and into a new chapter
By Beth Sergent

bsergent@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — “I fell into it
and it became a real good place
to be.”
So said Charlene Hoeflich
of her career in the newspaper
business. Hoeflich, who began
her career at the Athens Messenger’s now-defunct office in
Pomeroy in 1957, continued on
to be the cornerstone of The
Daily Sentinel from 1967 until
this past Thursday, when she
turned in her resignation.
Known for her relentless
work ethic and presence in the
community, the word “resignation” was no oversight because
“retirement” just isn’t in
Hoeflich’s vocabulary or plans.
“I hope to increase my volunteer service in the community… and sort through boxes,”
Hoeflich said about her immediate future.
On Friday, she was sorting
through those boxes in her
longtime office at The Daily
Sentinel, which is an archive of

Meigs County, its history and its
people. Inside those boxes were
awards, yearbooks from high
schools across Meigs County,
old photos, thank-you notes and,
of course, newspaper clippings,
including that of a current bank
president as a teenager, among
the paperclips and ink pens.
Hoeflich came to Meigs County from Athens in 1957 when
she married her late husband,
Bob, who worked at the Messenger’s Pomeroy office. Hoeflich,
who was trained in social work,
hoped to find a job as a case
worker but no work was to be
found. She instead found herself
working evenings alongside
Bob, helping with “society”
copy and other news items.
When a position opened at
the office, she interviewed and
was hired as a reporter. Then,
in 1967, Ohio Valley Publishing
Co. courted the Hoeflichs to
The Daily Sentinel, and since
that time, a Hoeflich has sat
in that office on Court Street,
translating the stories of Meigs
See STORY | A5

Street in downtown Pomeroy in the early days of
their marriage. The couple became cornerstones in
the community not just in the news columns, but
through their participation in local organizations
to improve and promote Meigs County.

‘Campfire Tales’ to revive art of storytelling
By April Jaynes

ajaynes@civitasmedia.com

GALIPOLLIS — The Gallia
County Convention and Visitors
Bureau and the French Art Colony
are teaming up to bring back the
tradition of oral storytelling via the
co-hosted event “Spine Tingling
Campfire Tales.”
The free event next weekend
will take place at the French Art
Colony, 530 First Ave. in Gallipolis
on Sept. 20, from 7-9 p.m. in the
side yard of the FAC.
Attendees will gather around a
campfire for an evening of “spinetingling tales” and hear from experienced orators, including Donna
Sue Wilson, of Meigs County, Jeff
Seager, and national-level storyteller Suzie Whaples.
Whaples has participated in
numerous storytelling festivals
throughout the eastern part of the

United States for more than 35
years. She is also known as Suzi
“Mama” Whaples.
Event coordinators said they
hope to unite attendees via the art
of storytelling.
“Imagine sitting around a campfire with your family and reviving
the long tradition of storytelling
that is somewhat lost today. Nearly
every one of us can think back to a
moment in our childhood when we
experienced a deep sense of unity
with the world while spending
time in nature with our family and
friends,” Amanda Crouse, executive director for the Gallia County
Convention and Visitors Bureau,
said. “The GCCVB and FAC have
created just that for this event.”
Lucia Colley Jones, FAC program
coordinator said straw bales will be
available for seating but attendees
are welcome to bring their own
chairs, and concessions will be

available for purchase.
Colley Jones also said the event
is appropriate for all ages and that
it primarily serves to revive storytelling traditions.
“The Appalachian area has
always had a rich history of storytelling, but the traditional art of
storytelling has become somewhat
lost,” she said. “This event is a way
to keep those traditions alive and
bring this age-old art to the community.”
The FAC and GCCVB hope to
make the event a yearly tradition.
“This is the first year for the
event, but we are hoping to make it
an annual tradition,” Colley Jones
said.
For additional information about
“Spine Tingling Campfire Tales,”
individuals can contact the GCCVB

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— Ohio officials asked a
federal judge Friday to hold
off from immediately forcing
the state to comply with his
ruling that expands early
voting this fall.
U.S. District Judge Peter
Economus temporarily
blocked an Ohio law that
trims early voting and
ordered the state’s elections
chief to set an expanded voting schedule. Early voting
would start Sept. 30 instead
of Oct. 7. Economus also
barred Secretary of State
Jon Husted from preventing
local elections boards from
adopting additional early
voting hours beyond his
order.
The state is appealing
Economus’ Sept. 4 ruling
to the 6th Circuit Court of
Appeals in Cincinnati, which
has agreed to hear it quickly.
The lawsuit’s plaintiffs,
which include the Ohio
chapter of the NAACP, have
requested that Economus
compel Husted to comply
with the ruling.
The plaintiffs claim Husted, a Republican, has yet

to update his website and
other voter information with
an early voting schedule
that reflects the court order.
They also said county elections boards’ websites misinform voters.
The state’s attorneys
said in a court filing Friday
that communicating voting
days and hours to elections
officials and the public
risks confusion if the times
change upon appeal. Plus,
they said, the secretary’s
office has been in touch with
local elections officials about
the order.
“Those actions apprise
everyone that pending litigation makes the early-voting
schedule not yet final, and
those actions tell local election
officials to prepare for both
possible schedules,” the state’s
attorneys told the court.
They said Husted was in
the process of revising his
website to include information regarding the potential
for alternative voting hours
and days.
Ohio residents can vote
absentee by mail or in person.

THEIR VIEW

President should
forget politics, act
on immigration
Blame the failure this time to do anything
substantive on immigration on both parties:
President Barack Obama and the Democrats
for allowing political considerations to get in
the way and Republicans for creating an atmosphere so toxic that no one wants to touch
immigration before the November election.
Time and again, this has been the story with
immigration. Proposals are made, encouraging
voices are heard, support is promised and then
it all dissolves into politics as usual, and nothing is done. Playing politics with so many lives
is a shameful way to govern, but that’s what
both Republicans and Democrats have done,
and Obama is now abetting.
This latest episode goes back to June, when
an angry Obama declared that House Speaker
John Boehner had informed him that the
Republican-controlled House would not be taking up any measures to overhaul the immigration system. As a result, the president said, he
had directed Homeland Security Secretary Jeh
Johnson and Attorney General Eric Holder to
give him recommendations for executive action
by the end of summer. Obama also pledged to
“adopt those recommendations without further
delay.”
Not going to happen. On Saturday, Obama
said his deadline was changed because of the
partisan wrangling over this summer’s influx of
unaccompanied minors at the border. That created, he said, an impression of an immigration
crisis and a volatile climate for making any
changes.
“The truth of the matter is — is that the
politics did shift midsummer because of that
problem,” he said, according to The Associated Press. “I want to spend some time, even
as we’re getting all our ducks in a row for the
executive action, I also want to make sure that
the public understands why we’re doing this,
why it’s the right thing for the American people, why it’s the right thing for the American
economy.”
So now, he won’t take up the issue until after
the midterm elections on Nov. 4. In an interview taped for NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Obama
rejected the charge that the delay was meant
to protect Democratic candidates worried that
his actions would hurt their prospects in tough
Senate races, according to the AP. But his
own words imply that’s exactly why he put off
action for the time being.
Immigration advocacy groups quickly jumped
on the president over the weekend.
Cristina Jimenez, managing director of United We Dream, said the decision was “another
slap to the face of the Latino and immigrant
community,” the AP reported. “Where we have
demanded leadership and courage from both
Democrats and the president, we’ve received
nothing but broken promises and a lack of
political backbone,” she said.
“We are bitterly disappointed in the president,
and we are bitterly disappointed in the Senate
Democrats,” said Frank Sharry, executive director of America’s Voice. “We advocates didn’t
make the reform promise; we just made the mistake of believing it. The president and Senate
Democrats have chosen politics over people, the
status quo over solving real problems.”
That anger is understandable — and we, too,
wish the president had shown more political
courage — but some of it should be reserved
for Republicans who consistently have refused
to act on immigration and who helped create
that perception of crisis this summer over the
immigrant minors.
The continuing toxicity created by politics
around immigration harms the economy and
leaves millions of immigrants in a shadow
world. And while the president talks about the
impression of a crisis, there is an actual crisis — certainly involving the influx of minors,
but also extending to the millions of undocumented workers who have come to the United
States.
The nation needs a comprehensive series of
changes to its immigration system, starting
with deciding the status of more than 11 million people in the country illegally. Yes, the
border needs to be as secure as a hundreds-ofmiles long border can be, but the more pressing issue is those 11 million. They should have
a path to citizenship. The nation needs a sensible system for managing those who want to
come to the U.S.
The Senate last year passed a bill that would
have done that, but it bogged down in the
House, where GOP obstructionism reigns.
We noted in July that most Americans favor
reform. If that’s the case, why back down from
executive action on immigration? Why not
use those politics against Republicans and on
behalf of the 11 million?
That would show some real political backbone.
Reprinted from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

THEIR VIEW

Obama takes big risk in wider airstrikes

By Julie Pace
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — For a president criticized as overly cautious
and reluctant to lead, Barack
Obama is taking a huge risk. He is
thrusting U.S. fighting forces into
a growing military operation with
clear dangers, unknown costs, an
indefinite length and unpredictable consequences.
After years of resistance, the
president who wanted to end
America’s wars will now oversee
a sweeping airstrike campaign
in both Iraq and Syria, a country
mired in an intractable civil war.
He’s sending hundreds more
U.S. troops to Iraq to help train
security forces there. And he’s
pressing Congress for authority
to pour U.S. weaponry into Syria
to strengthen opposition forces
fighting both the Islamic State
militants and President Bashar
Assad’s government.
All three are precisely the scenarios Obama has assiduously
sought to avoid.
For now, the public is with him,
with polls showing wide support
for airstrikes in Iraq and Syria
even as Obama’s own approval ratings slump and his foreign policy
ratings sink to near record lows.
“This is America’s leadership
at its best,” Obama declared in
his address to the nation, as if to
answer critics even in his own
party who complain he has been
too slow to act.
But as determined as Obama
sounded Wednesday night, his
resolve could be sorely tested by
the uncertainties of war and the
threat of Americans being killed or
captured. “Any time we take military action,” Obama said, “there
are risks involved, especially to the
servicemen and women who carry
out these missions.”

White House critics have argued
for years that Obama’s reluctance
to take the steps he announced
Wednesday reflected a president
who prioritized his legacy as a
commander in chief who ended
wars over warnings about the
threat that was building in the
Middle East. As a result, critics
say he contributed to creating the
conditions that allowed the Islamic
State militants to thrive and move
freely across the border between
Iraq and Syria.
“The president is a rather reluctant commander in chief,” Senate
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Wednesday, echoing the comments of other Republicans responding to a vexing
foreign policy crisis that is reaching fever pitch just weeks before
November’s midterm elections.
While Obama’s advisers dispute
the assertions of their critics,
there is little doubt that the president now feels a need to reverse
course after resisting the tug of
the Middle East.
“If left unchecked, these terrorists could pose a growing threat
beyond that region, including to
the United States,” he said in a
statement made all the more striking given that it came on the eve
of the anniversary of the Sept. 11,
2001, attacks.
Obama put no timetable on how
long U.S. airstrikes could last,
though administration officials
have warned that the campaign
could be lengthy. Other elements of the president’s plan also
appeared certain to take months, if
not years — most notably his call
for Congress to authorize the Pentagon to train and arm Syrian rebels to help them fight the Islamic
State extremists.
Even with a sustained military
campaign likely to consume much
of the remainder of his presidency,

Obama emphasized that the mission would be far different from
the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
that he inherited from his predecessor, George W. Bush. Obama
has insisted he will not send
American ground troops into combat in Iraq or Syria and the U.S. is
not establishing large-scale military bases in either country.
Instead, the president tried to
equate his new strategy to longrunning U.S. counterterrorism
campaigns in Yemen and Somalia,
where his administration has been
launching drone strikes against
terror targets. But there are important differences, starting with the
fact that it marks the first time
since 9/11 that a U.S. president
has authorized the bombing of terror targets in another nation without seeking permission or at least
notifying it in advance.
And unlike in Yemen and
Somalia, Obama is sending U.S.
troops into Iraq to assist with the
mission. Over the course of the
summer, he has authorized the
deployment of more than 1,500
U.S. troops to advise and assist
the Iraq’s besieged security forces,
conduct intelligence, surveillance
and reconnaissance flights, and
bolster security at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.
Obama’s strategy was welcomed
by some congressional Republicans who have long pressed him to
take more aggressive action. But
they made clear that he had catching up do after unveiling a strategy
that they say came too late.
“A president who has made
ending the war on terrorism the
central focus of his foreign policy
must now make winning it a priority,” House Majority Leader Kevin
McCarthy said.

Marshall professor recognized as Geriatric Scholar
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Dr.
Tamara Gravano of the Marshall University College of Health Professions
is the first physical therapist in the
state to complete the requirements to
be recognized as a David K. Brown
Geriatric Scholar through the West
Virginia Geriatric Education Center.
Gravano, an assistant professor
and director of clinical education
in the college’s School of Physical Therapy, said she has worked
toward the promotion and advancement of geriatric physical therapy
since 2004.
“With this scholarship, I hope to
have more insight and training to
help strengthen our geriatric community,” Gravano said. “Being the
first physical therapist to receive
this honor was a surprise to me.
Through this, I hope to encourage
other colleagues who are interested
in geriatrics to go through these
courses and find out how they can
also care for this growing population in our state.”

Nancy Daugherty, associate
director for the WVGEC, said West
Virginia is currently the second
most elderly state in the country,
and the percentage of the state’s
population over 65 continues to
increase. Daugherty said the David
K. Brown Geriatric Scholar program seeks to strengthen the expertise in the field of geriatrics study,
which will lead to improved care of
our older adults.
“David K. Brown was the associate director of education at the
WVU Center on Aging, a professor
at WVU and served as a leader in
geriatrics education prior to his
death in 2009. This program honors his contribution to scholarship
and advocacy,” Daugherty said.
“The WVGEC is excited to partner
with Dr. Gravano because we don’t
have enough health care providers who specialize in geriatrics.
We need more physical therapists
and other health care professionals who do specialize in geriatric

care because anything we can do
to provide continuing education in
this area would benefit our elderly
community.”
Dr. Penny Kroll, program director for Marshall’s School of Physical
Therapy, said Gravano’s achievement would blaze the trail for
others in her field and encourage
their colleagues to pursue similar
opportunities.
“Dr. Gravano’s level of commitment and dedication to her field
has been evident since coming to
the Marshall School of Physical
Therapy in 2011,” Kroll said. “This
is a great example of how members
of the Marshall community will
continue to use their knowledge
and passion to better those around
them. I am delighted she was
chosen for this honor, which she
undoubtedly deserves.”
Gravano received an award of
$1,000 to use toward further training in geriatric care. She will attend
the Advanced Geriatric Skills

Story

program March 26-28 at Lakeview
Conference Center in Morgantown,
W.Va., where she will present her
research on balance and falls.

ginia’s geriatric community, visit

County. The Daily Sentinel quickly became — and
still is — the community’s
newspaper with the Messenger pulling its office
out of the county.
It would be difficult to
find a person in Meigs
County who hasn’t had
their photo taken by
Charlene or seen her at
a festival taking notes
and making conversation
in downtown Pomeroy.
Who hasn’t had their
name appear in Charlene’s
“Community Corner” column over the years? Who
didn’t have their name
appear in Bob’s column
“Beat of the Bend?” The
Hoeflich era helped define
the tales of communities
in Meigs County because
everyone has a story.
Reflecting back, Charlene says she always preferred to do the positive
stories and features with
a particular interest in the
history of the area. Anyone with a question about
the way Meigs County
used to be, or how it currently is, could find out
both by asking Charlene,
which is a rare thing in
this day of temporary
Facebook posts and transient lives.
As for any advice she
has for young journalists,
she stresses to “always
verify your information” in
a day when being first and
wrong seems better than
being last and right.
“Never be afraid to ask
dumb questions,” she said.
“There are no dumb questions if you’re going to put
a story in writing. There
may be dumb questions
in your life, but you put
something in writing, you
need to be accurate.”
There are also times
when typos or mistakes
happen — this is just life.
Charlene says, “We all
make mistakes” but likes
to joke. When the average
person makes a mistake,
they wad it up and throw
it in the garbage, but journalists print 5,000 copies
and pass them out.

Charlene Hoeflich, who has been at The Daily Sentinel since 1967,
has resigned from her post. Hoeflich is pictured here on the second
floor mezzanine of The Daily Sentinel speaking with staff.

“You can’t dwell on
mistakes, make the correction if you can and never
be above making the correction,” Charlene said
about newspaper writing,
though this advice could
just as easily be applied to
life in general.
Another piece of advice
for those entering the
world of journalism is to
never show preferential
treatment, she added.
Once, Charlene received
a speeding ticket and
someone in the newsroom asked if she wanted
her name left out of the
newspaper. She adamantly
insisted that it run. It was
only fair.
“I hope that I’ve always
been fair in everything
that I did in the newspaper business,” she said.
Charlene’s resignation
may come as a shock to
the community who has
come to know her as well
as she knows them. She
said she wanted no fanfare
or party; she just wanted
to pack her things and qui-

etly make her exit though
the side door into the minipark. Those familiar with
Court Street understand
that reference. Those who
don’t get it, well, they
probably don’t get all that
Charlene knows about her
community.
Not being at The Daily
Sentinel will be a change
and with all change comes
challenges, Charlene said,
but she has no plans on
stopping her relentless
pace and passion for
Meigs County.
“I want to have more
time to enjoy the things
that I do,” Charlene said.
Back in the beginning
of her career, Charlene
needed Bob to open that
door into the newspaper
business and so an important chapter in her life
was written. People will
always need people and
communities will always
need people like Charlene
to champion them.
Now, it’s time to write
her own story, for a change.

Ohio experiencing increase in respiratory illnesses
Awaiting CDC tests to confirm Enterovirus D68
COLUMBUS — Ohio hospitals are experiencing an
increase in the number of
patients with respiratory illnesses, especially children.
This increase, according
to the Ohio Department of
Health, may be associated
with Enterovirus D68, which
has been confirmed in other
states. ODH has sent hospital
specimens to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention for testing.
Enteroviruses are common,
and there are more than 100
types which cause an estimated
10 million to 15 million infections each year – particularly in

infants, children and teenagers.
Most of them occur seasonally
during summer and fall. Most
people infected with enteroviruses have no symptoms or
only mild symptoms.
EV-D68 is a less common
type of enterovirus and can
cause cold-like symptoms and
mild to severe upper respiratory illness in some individuals.
Infected individuals usually
recover on their own. However,
some individuals, especially
those with weakened immune
systems or underlying medical
conditions such as asthma, may
experience severe complications and require hospitaliza-

tion with supportive therapy.
There is no vaccine for EV-D68
nor any specific treatment or
anti-viral medications.
ODH advises individuals
to contact their healthcare
provider if they are concerned
about their, or their children’s,
symptoms.
“We definitely won’t be
surprised if test results come
back from CDC confirming the
presence of EV-D68 in Ohio
given patient symptoms,” said
Dr. Mary DiOrio, ODH state
epidemiologist. “We’re urging
Ohioans to take precautions to
help prevent the spread of this
virus. We also want to bring

attention to the importance of
optimal asthma control. Some
of the children who have gotten
ill with this enterovirus have
previously been diagnosed with
asthma.”
Since individuals with asthma are at higher risk for respiratory illnesses, ODH advises
them to take their medications
regularly, to get a flu vaccine,
and to avoid triggers like
tobacco smoke that can cause
an asthma attack.
Enteroviruses are transmitted through close contact with
an infected person, or by touching objects or surfaces that are
contaminated with the virus
and then touching the mouth,
nose or eyes. To protect you
and your family from becoming

infected with an enterovirus
or other illnesses, remember
to:Wash your hands often with
soap and water for 20 seconds.
Avoid touching eyes, nose
and mouth with unwashed
hands.
Avoid kissing, hugging, and
sharing cups or eating utensils
with people who are sick.
Clean and disinfect surfaces,
such as toys and doorknobs,
especially if someone is sick.
Stay home when you are sick.
EV-D68 is not a nationally notifiable disease nor is it
reportable in Ohio.

this virus and other important
health information, please visit

LIMA, Ohio (AP) — Prison officials
were warned about an escape the day before
three inmates, including a school shooter
who killed three students, scrambled over
a fence before being recaptured, the union
representing Ohio guards said Friday.
One inmate was put in segregation
when an escape plan was discovered
on Wednesday, the Ohio Civil Service
Employees Association said in a statement. That inmate was housed in the
same unit as the three who escaped the
following evening, and prison officials
didn’t take additional steps to secure the
unit, the union said.
A spokeswoman for the Department
of Rehabilitation and Correction said in
an email that the segregated inmate “has
nothing to do with the escape.” She didn’t
address other parts of the union’s allegations.
The three escaped prisoners, including
convicted Chardon High School shooter
T.J. Lane, were recaptured by early Friday
morning.
Lane, 19, was caught only about 100
yards from the prison by two state troopers
at 1:20 a.m. Friday. A second prisoner had
been caught almost immediately, and troopers apprehended the third three hours after
finding Lane.
Lane’s brief taste of freedom frightened
residents in Chardon, the community nearly
200 miles to the east where Lane fatally shot
three students and wounded two others and
then further angered people with defiant
behavior in court. At his sentencing hearing last year, Lane unbuttoned a dress shirt
to reveal a T-shirt scrawled with the word
“killer,” similar to a shirt he wore during the
shootings on Feb. 27, 2012. He cursed and
made an obscene gesture as the judge gave
him three consecutive life sentences.
School officials canceled classes Friday.
“It’s a trigger,” district spokeswoman
Ellen Ondrey said of the escape. “It takes
everyone back to 2/27 and what was happening that day.”
The escape occurred at Allen Oakwood
Correctional Institution, a minimum- and
medium-security prison in Lima, about 80
miles south of Toledo.
Lane was housed on a “protective control” unit, a higher security setting than the
main compound, according to a legislative

Thomas Michael Lane III, aka T.J. Lane, 19, left,
and Clifford E. Opperud, 45. Lane, convicted of
killing three students at an Ohio high school,
scrambled over a fence to escape a state prison
with Opperud and another prisoner, and was
captured nearly six hours later hiding by a church
early Friday, authorities said.

prisons oversight committee statement
Friday. The unit is designed to hold inmates
with proven safety threats because of the
notoriety of their crimes, testimony they
have given or gang threats, the committee
said.
An April inspection by the committee
noted ongoing security concerns at the unit.
Security management “remains a concern,
both in terms of how the higher security
inmates are handled, as well as discipline
for misconduct,” according to a May report
by the Correctional Institution Inspection
Committee.
The state eliminated some security posts
at the prison five years ago, according to
the union, which also complained about low
staffing.
“They just aren’t focused on security
here like they need to be,” Shawn Gruber, a
corrections officer there and a union board
member, said in the statement.
Warden Kevin Jones said he saw Lane
after he was captured and that the teen
didn’t say anything. An investigation is
underway to determine how the men, who
were outside for recreation, managed to
climb over the perimeter fence, the warden
said.
Authorities wouldn’t say whether the
three prisoners planned their escapes
together.
Lane was captured somewhere near a
small church and cemetery that are separated from the prison by an overgrown field
and a two-lane road.

Unbeaten Raiders stymie Eastern, 14-6

River Valley junior Justin Arrowood stops Eastern senior Daschle Facemyer (16)
during the Raiders 14-6 victory in Bidwell on Friday.

BIDWELL, Ohio — Another
week, another Raiders victory.
The River Valley football
team moved to 3-0 on the
season after defeating nonconference guest Eastern by
a 14-6 count, Friday night in
Gallia County.
The offenses were both stymied in the first quarter, neither able to gain a first down,
but the Eagle (1-2) defense
came through. Christian Speelman recovered a fumble on a
backward pass and returned it
48 yards down the EHS sideline for the touchdown at the
2:10 mark of the first. River
Valley (3-0) blocked the extra

point attempt and trailed 6-0 at
the conclusion of the first.
The Raiders began their first
drive of the second quarter
inside the EHS 25 yard line
and made it inside the EHS
five after a long run and a
facemask penalty. Sam Payne
punched it in from four yards
out to tie the game. Devin
McDonald gave the Silver and
Black the 7-6 lead with the
point after at the 10:44 mark of
the second.
The RVHS defense forced
another three-and-out and
took over on the 45 yard line.
The Raiders moved inside the
10-yard line, aided by a pair
of Eagle penalties. Eastern
defenders stripped the ball
from Payne on the one-yard

line but RVHS held possession and Josh Campbell found
the endzone on the next play.
McDonald kicked home the
extra point and RVHS led 14-6
with 7:42 left in the first half.
The Eastern senior Andrew
Stobart intercepted a pass
from RVHS junior Dayton
Hardway on the next Raider
possession and the Eagles
began to drive. EHS had six
shots at the endzone from
inside 10 yards but the Raider
defense held strong and went
into half on top 14-6.
After a scoreless third quarter the Eagles began the fourth
quarter again with less than 10
yards from paydirt. The Raider

PROCTORVILLE,
Ohio — If you need to

Memorial Stadium.
The Gallia Academy
football team scored six
rushing touchdowns
Friday night in a 55-37
rout of non-conference
host Fairland.
The Blue Devils (2-1)

the opening quarter,
first on a five yard run
by Blake Wilson, and
then on a 59-yard punt
return by Wes Jarrell.
GAHS led 14-7 after
the first period and
found the endzone
again on a one-yard
touchdown run by Eli
Miller in the second.
With a 21-13 lead at
the begining of the second half GAHS found
paydirt three times in
the third quarter. Kole
Carter ran the Blue
Devils first touchdown
of the half from 45

yards out, while he
threw the next score
on to Russell Matthew
from 30 yards out. Eli
Miller capped off the
GAHS third quarter
scoring frenzy with a
51-yard scoring run.
GAHS led 41-21 at
the beginning of the
final and added two
more scores over the
final 12 minutes. Blake
Wilson rumbled 33
yards for a rushing
score, while Carter
added a nine-yard rushing score to help Gallia
Academy to a 55-37
victory.
The Blue Devil
offense gained 462 total
yards, 408 of which
came on the ground,
while racking up 19
first downs in the win.
GAHS was penalized
14 times, totaling 130
yards, while only punting once all night.

Academy rushers with
165 yards and two
scores on 13 carries,

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — The Logan football
team broke open a close game, outscoring Meigs
21-0 in the second period, and the Chieftains went
on to defeat the Marauders 55-7, Friday night at
Holzer Field/Farmers Bank Stadium.
This was the first contest played between the
former Southeastern Ohio Athletic League rivals in
32 years. Logan (1-2) rolled up 577 total yards in
the win, 441 of those coming on the ground. Meigs
(1-2) played for the second game in a row without
sophomore quarterback Cody Bartrum, and to
compound the Marauders offensive woes, Bartrum’s
replacement, Isaiah English, injured his leg midway
in the second period and watched the second half
of the contest on crutches and in street clothes.
Two other Marauders were taken to the hospital by
Meigs EMS, Colton Lilly and Alex Bissell were both
transported to area hospital with injuries.
Logan jumped out to a 13-0 lead in the first
period on a Bryce McBride six-yard run and a
24-yard pass from Lane Little to Isiah Smith. Meigs
was able to cut the deficit to 13-7 heading into the
second period when English was flushed out of the
pocket and went 68 yards for the score.
The Chieftains increased the lead to 34-7 at
the half, on a touchdown run of 79 yards by Dean
Jordan, three by scores McBride and a 31-yard
pass from Little to D.J. Madison. McBride added a
73-yard run in the third period, to make it 41-7 in
favor of Logan, heading into the fourth period.
The Chieftains scored twice fourth period, first
when Josh Rairdan recovered a blocked punt in the
endzone, and then when Corey Wilson ran 54 yards
with five minutes remaining. Most of the second half
was played with the new OHSAA rule of a running
clock with the game is more than a 30 point spread.
McBride had an outstanding game for Logan,
rushing for 209 yards and three touchdowns in 15
tries. Dean Jordan added 108 in just eight carries.
Little was 7-of-12 in the air for 136 yards, while
Chance Cox caught three for 52.
Meigs was led on the ground by English with
66 yards in six carries; the Chieftain defense did
an outstanding job on Michael Davis holding the
senior speedster to just 22 yards in 13 tries. English was 3-of-9 in the air for 43 yards, Ty Phelps
was 0-of-4 and Davis 0-2 in the air.
Meigs, with the loss, drops to 1-2, and the
Marauders will travel to McArthur next Friday for
their first road game and also first TVC contest
against the Vikings.

connected to the District's sewer system, and such customer
has failed to take appropriate
action, within thirty (30) days of
receipt of a demand by the

When an unusual user is to be
served, a preliminary study of
its wastes, and the cost of
transport and treatment thereof, will be made. Waste containing materials which, in the
judgment of the Mason County
Public Service District, should
not be introduced into the sewer system, need not be
handled by it. The results of
this preliminary study will be
used to determine the feasibility of the proposed sewer service and the charge therefore,
based upon the formula set out
above.
Thereafter, unusual sewage
will be monitored on a regular
basis and at the conclusion of
each fiscal year, based on the
investigation aforesaid and
audit of the Mason County
Public Service District records,
new cost figures will be calculated for use in the above formula. The cost of establishing
the monitoring facilities shall
be paid by the unusual user.
Based on these audited figures, additional billings covering the past fiscal year will be
made for payment by each unusual user, or refund given by
the Mason County Public Service District, as the case may
be. Such audited figures will
then be used for the preliminary billing for the next fiscal
year, at the end of which an
adjustment will be made as
discussed above.
W.Va. Code § 16-13A-9 authorizes the District to petition
the Circuit Court to compel
connection to the sewer system. In the event a customer
does not connect to the system that customer may be
charged based upon metered
water usage if available, or, if
meter data is not available, the
average usage of that customer s class. For residential customers, this charge will be
$50.38. District personnel may

Eastern volleyball soars past Lady Falcons
By Alex Hawley

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

MASON, W.Va. — Make it three in
a row.
The Eastern volleyball team earned
its third straight victory Thursday
night, defeating Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division host Wahama in
straight games.
The Lady Eagles (4-6, 3-2) trailed
Wahama 3-2 early in the first game but
the Lady Eagles rallied ahead, thanks
in part to 15 service points by junior
Kelsey Johnson. The Lady Eagles
finished the game on a 12-0 run and
claimed the 25-13 win.
The Lady Falcons led just once in the
second game, and Eastern was able to
take a 25-20 victory and move ahead

2-0 in the match. Wahama led 8-7 in the
third game but EHS managed to battle
back and move ahead 14-13. Kelsey
Johnson claimed 10 straight points to
push the Green and Gold to a 25-13 win
and the match victory.
Kelsey Johnson posted 28 service
points and four aces to lead Eastern, followed by Breanna Bailey with 10 points
and two aces. Makenzie Brooks marked
six points, Elayna Bissell added three,
while Holly Johnson Sabra Bailey, Katlyn Barber and Morgan Baer with one
point each. Baer, Brooks, Sabra Bailey
and Holly Johnson each had one ace in
the win.
Taylor Warden led the Lady Falcons
with six points, followed by Rebekah
Roach and Victoria Allensworth with
five each. Taylor McGrew added three

points, Olivia Hill chipped in with two,
while Madison VanMeter rounded out
the WHS total with one point.
At the net the Lady Eagles were led
by Hannah Barringer with five kills,
followed by Brooks and Kelsey Johnson
with four each. Barber finished with
two kills, while Sidney Cook marked
one in the win. Sabra Bailey marked 11
assists to lead EHS, followed by Barringer with two. The Eastern defense was
led by Kelsey Johnson with 10 digs and
a block, while Breanna Bailey had nine
digs, and Barber added six digs.

Second-half surge lifts Point past Pioneers, 38-14
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The
king is dead. Long live the king.
The Point Pleasant football team
became West Virginia’s new leader
for consecutive regular season wins
Friday night following a 38-14 victory
over visiting Wayne in a Week 3 nonconference football contest at Ohio
Valley Bank Track and Field.
The host Big Blacks (3-0) extended
their state-best streak to 17 straight
decisions while handing the Pioneers
(2-1) their first regular season loss
since Week 5 of the 2011 campaign
— which coincidentally was a 16-14
setback at PPHS. WHS had previously won 27 straight regular season
contests entering Friday night’s affair.
The first half ended up being
evenly matched, as both teams gained
six first downs and committed three
turnovers apiece en route to a 10-7
Point Pleasant halftime advantage.
That, however, was as close as the
game would get, as PPHS went on a
28-7 second half surge to wrap up the
24-point triumph in its home-opening
contest.
Afterwards, eighth-year PPHS
head coach Dave Darst spoke about
the magnitude of the outcome — particularly with how his team kept getting better as the night progressed.
“Honestly, I’m just tickled for

the kids and our community. To be
able to play with the type of emotion that we needed to play with to
beat a Wayne football team, I’m just
excited about what we did tonight,”
Darst said. “We did some things that
we have never done before and our
coaches did a real good job of getting
these kids prepped for tonight.
“Our defense battled to keep us in
it during that first half and then our
offense just got it going in the second
half. I’m telling you, I’m a proud Point
Pleasant football coach tonight.”
Conversely, Wayne head coach
Tom Harmon was somewhat pleased
with his kids overall effort — but he
also noted that they ran into a buzz
saw on this particular evening.
“I thought it was a pretty wellplayed football game, with the exception of a few turnovers here and there.
The difference tonight was usually
what the difference ends up being any
game, blocking and tackling,” Harmon said. “They blocked us better
than we did them and they tackled a
whole lot better than we did.
“Point Pleasant has a very good
football team and I’m sure there will
be good things ahead for them later
on down the road.”
The Big Blacks wasted little
time getting on the scoreboard as
Aden Yates picked up a fumble and
returned it 48 yards to the house,
allowing the hosts to take a 7-0 lead

just 44 seconds into regulation.
Wayne responded with a touchdown on its next possession as
Mason Hodge scored from five yards
out, allowing the the guests to knot
things up at seven with 8:08 remaining in the opening period.
The score remained that way until
late in the second quarter as PPHS
had a drive stall at the five, which
ultimately led to a 22-yard field goal
by Dylan Lunsford — allowing Point
Pleasant to take a 10-7 edge into the
break.
Point dodged a major bullet just
before halftime as the hosts fumbled
the ball away to Wayne at their own
33 with 1:30 left in the second canto.
Cody Mitchell eventually picked off a
Grant Ferguson pass in the endzone
to avoid any damage and gave the
hosts a three-point halftime cushion.
The Big Blacks mustered a slim
102-100 advantage in total yards at
the half, which included 53 rushing
yards on 17 carries and 49 passing
yards. Wayne, on the other hand, had
20 rushes for 49 yards and 51 passing
yards by intermission.
PPHS opened the second half with
a 12-play, 61-yard drive that resulted
in a successful 25-yard field goal by
Lunsford, giving the Big Blacks some
breathing room at 13-7 with seven
minutes left in the third.
Point forced a punt on the Pioneers’ ensuing possession, then hit

a home run on its first play from
scrimmage as Jon Peterson hauled
in a 57-yard scoring pass from Yates
— allowing the hosts to secure a 20-7
lead with 3:33 left in the third period.
Wayne answered on the ensuing
kickoff as Cody Stiltner returned the
ball 89 yards to paydirt — allowing
the guests to close back to within a
possession at 20-14 with 3:19 remaining in the quarter.
The Pioneers, however, were never
closer the rest of the way as PPHS
went on to score the final 18 points of
the game.
Cody Mitchell was responsible for
all three of those scores, with the first
one coming on a 17-yard scamper
with 5.5 seconds left in the third —
making it a 26-14 Point Pleasant lead
headed into the finale.
Mitchell tacked on fourth quarter
scoring runs of 16 yards at the 10:22
mark and three yards at the 3:26 mark
to wrap up the 24-point triumph.
PPHS finished the night with 354
yards of total offense, which included
211 rushing yards on 37 carries and
another 143 yards through the air.
The hosts managed 16 first downs
and were also penalized eight times
for 45 yards.
The Pioneers mustered only 144
yards of total offense, which included
a mere 72 rushing yards on 37 carries
and another 72 yards through the
air. WHS was flagged six times for

Raiders

defense held strong once again and forced
the turnover on downs. Eastern had one last
chance to even the game, but after gaining 27
and 28 yards on consecutive pass plays late
in the fourth quarter, RVHS junior Kirk Morrow intercepted a tipped Jett Facemyer pass.
RVHS gained a first down and knelled down
twice to secure the 14-6 victory.
“Let’s just be happy it’s a win,” RVHS head
coach Jerrod Sparling said. “It’s not the way
we wanted it to be, it wasn’t pretty, we made
a lot of mistakes, we turned the football over,
we made a ton of mental errors, but our kids
still kept fighting. They didn’t put their heads
down; man, they just played hard.”
The Raider offense, which gained seven
first downs and 153 total yards, was led
by Payne with 55 yards on 11 carries and
Arrowood with 44 yards on 15 carries. Josh
Campbell gained 18 yards on the ground on
six carries, while Dayton Hardway ran seven
times for seven yards.
Hardway was 5-of-15 passing for 51 yards,
while throwing two interceptions. Morrow
caught three passes for 40 yards to lead the
Sliver and Black.
“We did a lot of great things on defense,”
Pat Newland said. “We gave up a score, and
then on the other score, I thought we had the
fumble but they said it was duel possession,
but other than that our defense played amazing, nothing but great effort.”
The Eastern offense was led by Jett Facemyer with 113 yards on 12-of-20 passing with
an interception. Daschle Facemyer completed
his only pass for 27 yards, while gaining 15
yards on nine carries and a catch. Cameron
Richmond led the EHS receivers with 84
yards on five catches, followed by Speelman
with 51 yards on five grabs. Bradley Colburn

who was 2-for-2 on field goal attempts
— was also 2-of-4 on point-after tries.

Point Pleasant has allowed more

18 regular season victories. The Big

led the Eastern ground attack with with 18
yards on two carries, while catching two
passes for four yards.
River Valley’s defense held Eastern to just
25 rushing yards on 34 carries, while forcing
two fumbles and intercepting a pass.
“I don’t know how the stats shook out, but
that was the best run defense we’ve played
since this staff has been here,” Sparling said.
“That’s a tribute to the kids who are putting
in the preparation and a tribute to the coaching staff for getting them ready to go. Our
toughness and our heart showed tonight,
especially on that side of the football.”
The Raiders are now 3-0 for the first time
since the 2003 season when they finished
6-4. This marks the first time since 2008
that the RVHS defense has held back-to-back
teams to single digits. Those games were
against Eastern (14-0 in Tuppers Plains) and
against Waterford (27-7 in Cheshire).
“It feels great, and it’s a great accomplishment for this school,” Sparling said on being
3-0. “It is unfamiliar territory, but we’re
happy to be there.”
The Eagles will look to move back to .500
next week when they travel to Federal Hocking.
“We just have to get back to work, we
made too many mistakes tonight,” Newland
said. “We just have to make a few more plays,
some guys came up and made some plays
and we let some things go. We just have
to stay on our blocks better and hold on to
some balls.”
Federal Hocking is 0-3 on the season with
Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division losses to South Gallia (44-8) and Belpre (28-8).
River Valley will host their first ever TVC
Ohio game next week when 2-1 NelsonvilleYork visits Bidwell. The Buckeyes have
won back-to-back games (9-0 over Newark
Catholic and 49-12 over Berne Union) after
dropping their season opener to Trimble by a
34-14 count.

Wilson caught one 14 yard
pass, Seth Wills caught one
pass for eight yards and Jarrell caught one pass for two
yards.
The Blue Devil defense
was led by Wilson with
two interceptions and Brett
Johnson with a sack. GAHS
senior place kicker Dylan
Saunders was 7-of-8 on extra
point attempts in the win.
Fairland (0-3) has now
given up 180 points in three
games this season. The

Dragons schedule doesn’t get
any easier as they will face
unbeaten Wheelersburg next
week and currently unbeaten
Valley the following week.
The Blue Devils will travel
to Marietta next week for a
non-conference clash with
the Tigers. MHS is 1-2 on the
year having dropped back-toback contests to Warren (198) and Williamstown (42-34)
respectively after defeating
Morgan by a 42-0 count in
the season opener.

Mason County FFA chapter looks ahead
By April Jaynes

ajaynes@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.
— This year’s Future Farmers of America Officer Team
members in Mason County are
looking toward their chapter’s
future — and individual futures
— with bright expectations
and many new ambitions on
the horizon.
FFA Advisor Sam Nibert
said the students have numerous upcoming trips and events
that serve to enhance their
knowledge and help the students network with other FFA
organizations and agricultural
businesses.
Some of the upcoming events
include the Ohio Farm Science
Review in London, Ohio, taking place next week, in which
the students will observe
hundreds of agriculture-related
exhibitors that are showcased
on 15 miles of land, Nibert
said.
“It’s a great field trip. The
students learn a lot,” he said.
Other trips coming up for the
chapter at the end of the month
is the National FFA Convention and Expo, in Louisville,
Ky., and the Fall Leadership

Convention at the Cedar Lakes
Conference Center in Ripley,
W.Va.
Mason County FFA Officer
Team President Jordan Muncy
said the Fall Leadership Convention focuses on fostering
current FFA leaders as well as
future FFA leaders.
“We’re taking younger members (to the convention) and
hopefully getting them more
involved,” she said.
Another opportunity in which
the Officer Team members get
to instill their knowledge and
experience to younger students
is on National Teach Ag Day on
Sept 25, where each member
will go into a different middleschool class and teach students
about agriculture and FFA,
Muncy said.
Additional upcoming events
for the chapter include the
annual fruit sales in October,
in which students bring in produce they’ve grown themselves,
and the tractor driving contest
in November, in which students
drive a tractor through a timed
obstacle course.
Several of the Officer Team
members said they initially got
involved with FFA through 4-H

and showing animals.
Officer Team Treasurer Bre
Ball said she starting showing
animals when she was 9 years
old and that her family also
inspired her to join FFA.
“It’s kind of been in my family,” she said. “I always thought
it (FFA) was so cool.”
Many of the Officer Team
members said FFA is an important part of their individual lives
and teaches them about much
more than just agriculture.
“For me, it’s one of the most
important parts of my life,” Mucy
said. “I really like FFA because it
teaches people a lot of skills and
really prepares you for life.”
In addition to agriculture
knowledge, Muncy said FFA
works to prepare students for
job interviews and helps them
develop communication and
leadership skills.
“We do a lot of public speaking,” she said. “I know from
personal experience that I
couldn’t do presentations without FFA.”
Officer Team Sentinel Derek
Jackson said he joined 4-H
when he was 9 years old, and
FFA when he entered high
school.

“I’ve been involved in Ag
probably before I could walk,”
he said. “FFA is pretty much
my whole life now.
Jackson also said FFA has
to helped to prepare him with
numerous life skills.
“It’s a lot more than just
cows, plows and sows,” he
said. “It really helps you in a lot
of ways.”
Some of the members, Jackson and Muncy, said they plan

to run for state office in the
summer.
Muncy said she wants to run
for state office because of the
impact she could have on other
FFA members and the new
opportunities it would bring.
“I see the impact that they
(state Office Team members)
have on younger FFA members, and I think it would be a
great opportunity to meet new
people,” she said.

Farm Bureau
to make
investment
COLUMBUS — Ohio farmers will take measurable steps
toward improving Ohio’s water resources with the launch of
a $1 million water quality action plan announced Friday by
the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation.
Ohio Farm Bureau’s board of trustees voted during a special meeting to commit significant resources to address agriculture’s role in Ohio’s water quality challenges. They placed
special emphasis on the Western Lake Erie Basin.
A component of the plan includes two aggressive goals:
Farm Bureau will help all qualifying farmers in the Western
Lake Erie Basin obtain required fertilizer certification by
Earth Day 2015. This April 22 target date would bring farmers into regulatory compliance a full 29 months ahead of the
state-required deadline.
Further, Farm Bureau will help farmers in the watershed
create nutrient management plans, which detail responsible
fertilizer use, by Earth Day 2016. These plans exceed state
legal requirements.
With thousands of farms in the WLEB, reaching these
aggressive goals will require a high degree of cooperation
and collaboration with farmers. Ohio Department of Agriculture and Ohio State University’s College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences are providing regulatory and
educational oversight to the fertilizer certification program.
Another significant Farm Bureau commitment is to hire a
second staff member to specialize in water quality and nutrient management. Fifteen years ago, Ohio Farm Bureau set a
national precedent by hiring a doctorate level expert to work
with farmers on these issues. The new staff member will
expand OFBF’s outreach and programming efforts.
Other Farm Bureau action steps announced in the plan
include:Partnering with USDA’s Natural Resource Conservation Service and various state agencies to establish
a network of demonstration farms, which will assist in
farmer training and show the public how viable farming and
resource protection go hand in hand;
Working to gain additional funding for on-farm research
projects and dissemination of the research results;
Securing funding for farm conservation programs;
Seeking resources for septic and rural water infrastructure
improvements;
Partnering to promote public drinking water system
improvements;
Supporting county Farm Bureau activities centered on
local water issues.
Farm Bureau will continue to share information with
public officials regarding potential legislative and regulatory
actions, and the organization will ramp up communications
efforts to encourage a dialogue between farmers and Ohio
citizens. OFBF also will increase its commitment to Healthy
Water Ohio, a broad coalition of conservation, business,
university, water suppliers, tourism, public health and farm
interests who are developing a long-range strategy to address
the state’s water resources.
While the emphasis is on watersheds such as Lake Erie
and Grand Lake St. Marys, Farm Bureau is engaging on a
statewide basis and will work closely with industry partners,
Gov. John Kasich, legislators, other farm organizations,
conservation organizations and various stakeholder groups
as well.
Farm Bureau’s commitment is an unprecedented privatesector investment in improving the state’s water. The $1
million will complement recent state and federal government
funding plans. OFBF’s programming is primarily paid for
by membership dues. The organization’s 206,000 members
include approximately 80 percent of Ohio’s family farmers.
“Preserving Ohio’s water quality is a serious issue and
these are serious responses,” said Ohio Farm Bureau Executive Vice President John C. (Jack) Fisher. Fisher encouraged
other parties to join with Farm Bureau members to find
solutions.
“We know there are municipal overflow issues, residential
and commercial runoff, treatment problems and other infrastructure issues, invasive species and weather events and
a long list of challenges,” Fisher said. “There are few quick
fixes, no inexpensive answers. But we have to start now. We
have to find solutions that protect our water, preserve our
ability to grow food and help our state’s businesses and communities. Farmers are willing to do their fair share and Farm
Bureau is committed to that effort.”

Doc ‘survives’
wilderness
survival course
GALLIPOLIS — Dr. Dan Black, Holzer physical
medicine and rehabilitation, sports medicine, and now
wilderness medicine teacher, has recently returned
from one week’s training of the New River Gorge Wilderness Medicine Course.
This included a rigorous program of many traditional wilderness topics, such as snake bites, snake
handling and identification, white water rafting safety
and rescue, fire safety and starting, cliff safety and
rescue of victims at cliff sites, four-wheeler mountain
rescues, and several other survival techniques.
Training included working with U.S. military helicopter rescues, which involved loading and unloading
victims from helicopters and adhering to safety and
procedures around helicopters.
Life support and victim handling in the wilderness
with minimal equipment available were important and
interesting topics, Black said. Water safety, drowning
information and the need for “toughness attitude” for
survival were major points of the presentations.
Black plans a return trip, this time to Black Mountain, N.C., in the near future. For more information,
contact Black at 740-446-5070, 740-446-5902 or e-mail
him at DBlack2@holzer.org.

Reed named director of Art and Design
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Sandra Reed has been named as the
new director of Marshall University’s School of Art and Design.
Reed said she is honored to
join the university right when its
commitment to the visual art and
design is transforming historic
downtown Huntington.
“This is a special place at a special time,” Reed said. “The opportunity to lead the faculty and
students of the School of Art and
Design as they fulfill the potential
of the Visual Arts Center as a destination for vibrant study, creative
production, dialogue, and exhibition was a major factor in my
decision to accept the position as
Director of the School of Art and
Design.”
College of Arts and Media
Dean Donald Van Horn said
Reed’s appointment comes at an
important time for the university.
“We reviewed many quality candidates from across the country,
but it was Sandra’s talent, knowledge and experiences that made
her the best choice,” Van Horn
said. “The Visual Arts Center
downtown is the premier center
for the visual arts, and Sandra
will represent it well. She’s a great
fit.”
Reed said her two decades of
experience and administration at
the Savannah College of Art and
Design have prepared her for the
position.
“I’ve hit the ground running,”
Reed said.
A painter by trade, Reed has
held leadership roles in New
York City and a position as the
academic director for two full
academic terms at the Savannah
