14th annual Meigs
SWCD Watershed Camp
slated for June 5-6
Staff Report

RUTLAND — In a year when it seems the price
of everything is going up, it is refreshing to see
some things still cost the same.
The 14th Leading Creek Watershed Summer Day Camp will be held June 5 and 6 at the
Meigs SWCD Conservation Area near Rutland,
and it still costs the same as in years past —
free.
“This year’s topics will include ﬁsh, wetlands,
aquatic bugs, coal mining, forestry, tree identiﬁcation, outdoor cooking, and more,” said Jenny Ridenour, education coordinator with the Meigs Soil
and Water Conservation District.
New this year will be a demonstration with the
new Ohio Division of Wildlife law enforcement
canine. We will also be taking a trip to the United
Plant Savers’ Botanical Sanctuary. During these
two days, students can participate in a number of
hands-on activities to discover the importance of
clean water and explore all the critters that make
their home in and around streams and forests. All
activities at Leading Creek Watershed Camp are
designed to engage students in learning while having fun!

ROCKSPRINGS —
Last weekend’s presentation of the musical
Urinetown by the Meigs
High School Drama Club
was a resounding success.
Director Amy Perrin and her troupe of
talented teen thespians
and technicians earned
standing ovations
from the appreciative
and enthusiastic audiences at both Friday
and Saturday’s public
performances. Months
of preparation, hard
work and long hours of
rehearsal and set up paid
off as the young performers received protracted
applause after each successive, adeptly executed
musical number proving
that even in a smaller
rural school district talents abound if properly
nourished and given the
opportunity to ﬂourish.
Transforming a high
school gymnasium and
stage into a functional
theater is no small task,
but Perrin and Assistant
Director Garrett Rifﬂe
with a small entourage of
experienced and talented
professionals (and crews
of exceptional students
under their guidance)
rose to the challenge. In
a relatively short (though
intensive) time period,
massive sets and hightech sound and lighting
systems converted a typical gym into a working
performance space capable of impressing even
the most truculent theater critic. The stark set’s
main component was a
large scaffolding (from
Safeway Scaffolding)
with quadruple staircases
providing entrance and
exit access to an upper
deck that gave a twolayered and very roomy

appearance and utility
to an otherwise wide yet
shallow stage. The metal
pipe structure along
with large wheeled ﬂats
offered ample surfaces
for mounting stationary
and movable lighting
ﬁxtures which the Technical Directors (Darby
Gilmore, of Nashville,
and Roger Gilmore) used
to great advantage in creating striking looks for
some of the show’s most
important moments.
The student sound and
lighting crews of Jake
Scherfel, Graci Rifﬂe,
Trenton Durst, Devon
Erwin, Hannah Ridenour,
Aaliyah Tobin, Mikayla
Schwendeman and
Kati Brinker performed
adeptly and admirably
under adverse conditions and the occasional
equipment failures. The
talented cast and capable

stage crew who continually gave their all under
less than optimum circumstances were: Noah
Anderson, Hope Diehl,
Greg Sheets, Josie Donohue, Evan Hennington,
Gus Kennedy, Destiny
Vining, Hayley Lathey,
Maddy Wood, Emily
Pullins, Marissa Kissee,
Ezra Briles, Eli Leigh,
Brody Reynolds, Makayla
Kimes, Lelia Ashirova,
Sky Green, Jasmine Conley, Hannah Barnette,
Alexis Medley, Amanda
Landaker, Chase Jones
and Elizabeth Fackler.
A production the size
and scope of Urinetown
is a challenge under the
best of circumstances
and its complexity is
only compounded when
staged in a facility whose
main function is certainly
not that of theater, thus
the show’s Directors and

Technical Consultants
cannot overstate the
importance of the cooperation of MHS for the
assistance and forbearance extended prior to
and especially during
show week. Toney Dingess graciously offered
the use of the band room
as “dressing room” and
all around staging area,
and the overall theater
experience was deﬁnitely
enhanced by the good
folks who ran concessions and prepped for the
cast party.
MPAC (Meigs Performing Arts &amp; Community Center) Foundation
members were present
both nights conducting
fundraisers and educating the receptive and
enthusiastic crowds
regarding their ongoing
efforts for the creation of
a theater for the performing arts with learning
facilities for the associated arts and sciences
and high tech convention
style gathering spaces for
public use. The MPAC
structure will be the
fulﬁllment of a dream
of a brighter tomorrow
for not only the “theater
kids” but for all who
reside in Meigs County.
The MPAC Foundation is
a fund of the Foundation
for Appalachian Ohio
(FAO).

Raul Castro retires as Cuban president
By Michael Weissenstein
and Andrea Rodriguez
Associated Press

HAVANA — Raul
Castro stepped down
as president of Cuba
on Thursday, handing
power to a 57-year-old
successor he said would
hold power until 2031,
a plan that would place
the state the Castro
brothers founded and
ruled for six decades in
the hands of a Communist Party ofﬁcial who
remains little known
to most people on the
island.
Castro’s 90-minute
valedictory speech offered
his ﬁrst clear vision for
the nation’s future power
structure under new
President Miguel Mario
Diaz-Canel Bermudez.
Castro said he foresees
the white-haired electronics engineer serving two
ﬁve-year terms as leader
of the Cuban government,
and taking the helm of
the Communist Party, the
country’s ultimate authority, when Castro leaves
the powerful position in
2021.
“From that point on,
I will be just another
soldier defending this
revolution,” Castro said.
The 86-year-old general
broke frequently from his
prepared remarks to joke
and banter with ofﬁcials

Irene Perez | Cubadebate via AP

Cuba’s new president, Miguel Diaz-Canel, left, with former president Raul Castro, are shown after
Diaz-Canel was elected as the island nation’s new president at the National Assembly in Havana,
Cuba, on Thursday. Castro left the presidency after 12 years in office when the National Assembly
approved Diaz-Canel’s nomination as the candidate for the top government position.

on the dais in the National Assembly, saying he
looked forward to having
more time to travel the
country.
In his own half-hour
speech to the nation,
Diaz-Canel pledged to
preserve Cuba’s communist system while
gradually reforming the
economy and making the
government more responsive to the people.
“There’s no space
here for a transition that
ignores or destroys the
legacy of so many years

of struggle,” Diaz-Canel
said. “For us, it’s totally
clear that only the Communist Party of Cuba, the
guiding force of society
and the state, guarantees
the unity of the nation of
Cuba.”
He said he would work
to implement a longterm plan laid out by
the National Assembly
and Communist Party to
permit moderate growth
of private enterprises
like restaurants and
taxis, while leaving the

Airline
sought
more time
for engine
inspections
DALLAS (AP) —
Southwest Airlines
sought more time last
year to inspect fan
blades like the one
that snapped off during one of its ﬂights
Tuesday in an engine
failure that left a passenger dead.
The airline opposed
a recommendation by
the engine manufacturer to require ultrasonic
inspections of certain
fan blades within 12
months, saying it
needed more time to
conduct the work.
Southwest made the
comments last year
after U.S. regulators
proposed making the
inspections mandatory. The Federal Aviation Administration
has not yet required
airlines to conduct the
inspections but said
late Wednesday that
it would do so in the
next two weeks.
The manufacturer’s
recommendation for
more inspections
followed an engine
blowup on a 2016
Southwest ﬂight. On
Tuesday, an engine
on another Southwest
jet exploded over
Pennsylvania, and
debris hit the plane.
A woman was sucked
partway out of the jet
when a window shattered. She died later
from her injuries.
The plane, a Boeing
737 bound from New
York to Dallas with
149 people aboard,
made an emergency
landing in Philadelphia.
Passenger Andrew
Needum, a Texas ﬁreﬁghter, said Thursday
that he was helping
his family and other
passengers with their
oxygen masks when
he heard a commotion
behind him. His wife
nodded that it was OK
for Needum to leave
his family to help the
injured woman.

Tough but Fair!

As your Meigs County Common Pleas Judge, I would be working for ALL of Meigs
County. My family and I are from Meigs County, and I have always been proud to be
from Meigs County. I am genuine in my commitment to the community.
I am tough, but fair. I will approach each case without prejudice or bias. I will make
sure the Common Pleas Court is managed with honesty, integrity, and fairness. I will
make sure anyone who is convicted of committing a crime in Meigs County is held
accountable and sentenced appropriately.
I live here and love here. The safety and security of each of you is extremely
important to me.
I have a strong faith and believe that each person who appears in court is another
Child of God and must be given my full attention. I would make sure we are all
protected by upholding the rights guaranteed under the Constitution, and that our
individual liberties are protected. But, if anyone violates the law, commits a crime and
victimizes others, that person must be punished appropriately—and I have no problem
issuing such punishment.
I am dedicated to Meigs County—past, present and future. Vote for me and,
TOGETHER, we can and will build a stronger community.

ATHENS — As the
spring days grow warmer,
more and more Ohioans
will be venturing out to
go ﬁshing. Ohio offers
many opportunities for
the public to ﬁsh, including 124,000 acres of
inland water, 7,000 miles
of streams, 2.25 million
acres of Lake Erie water,
and 481 miles of the Ohio
River, according to the
Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR).
Here are a few areas in
southeast Ohio anglers
may want to check out.
The ODNR Division
of Wildlife has numerous
resources available to
assist anglers, including
lake maps, ﬁshing tips
by species, and ﬁshing
forecasts based on survey
data. Anglers are also
encouraged to use an
online, interactive ﬁshing
map which allows users
to select features in order
to customize their own
ﬁshing maps for Ohio’s
inland lakes. This map
and the selective features
are even mobile-friendly
so anglers can access
information right on the
water. For more information, click the “ﬁshing

God had other beneﬁcent
plans for his life that had

the future of the nation of

When you study out
the life of Jacob, it seems
that God had to do a lot
to get and keep Jacob’s
attention. This is a point
that perhaps is pertinent
for many, for do you ever
wonder why it seems that
so many thing go wrong

difﬁcult? We need to consider that God is working
to get our attention.
I had a hard time realizing this my self early

I guess God got my

It is important for us
to realize that there are
times God is trying to get
our attention. Sometimes
He uses the difﬁcult
circumstances of life to
accomplish it. There are
reasons to consider why
He does so. A major reason might be that we are
ignoring Him. We are not
worshipping Him as we
should. We are not fulﬁlling our spiritual duties
as we should. God might
be trying to get our attention so that we will prioritize Him.

There might be sin in
our lives about which
we need to confess and
repent. Consider how
God worked to get Israel’s
attention before He harshly permitted Israel to go
through a lengthy time of
chastisement. Or, it might
be that we are heading
our lives in a contrary
direction by participating
in things we should not. It
is a good thing that God
works to get our attention
for our good.
The truth of the matter
is that God dares to pull
on our cape because of
our propensity to see ourselves not needing God.
It is important to stay
spiritually cognizant how
the Lord may be trying to
get our attention.

we might have
to take them to
the veterinarian to get some
medicine. Pets need love and
attention, as well. They love
us, and we love them.
When I think about having
a pet, it reminds me of something that Jesus said about
Himself. In John 10:14-15,
He said, “I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep, and
my sheep know me. Just as
the Father knows me, I know
the Father, and I lay down my
life for the sheep.” A shepherd is a pet owner - a person
who takes care of sheep, usually a lot of sheep. Sheep do
not take very good care of
themselves and need someone
to watch over them and make
sure they don’t get lost. They
need someone to protect
them from harm. They know
their shepherd’s voice and follow him. Jesus said He knows
His sheep, and His sheep
know Him. He said that He
was even willing to lay down
His life for those sheep, so He
must really love them a lot!
Well, as you might guess,
Jesus wasn’t talking about
actual sheep. He was talking
about you and me; we are
the sheep of His pasture. He
loves us; He takes care of us;
and He makes sure we are
protected and have what we
need. He was even willing to
give His life so that you and I
could live with Him forever in
heaven. That is real love for
us all. Jesus died on the cross,
so our sins would be forgiven,
and we could be His disciples.
Just like you are good pet
owners and a good shepherd
takes care of his herd of
sheep, Jesus is our shepherd
and takes very good care of
us too.
Ask you Mom or Dad to
read you Psalm 23 in the
Bible. It says more about the
Lord being our shepherd and
what that involves.
Let’s say a short prayer.
Jesus, thank You for being
our shepherd and taking such
good care of us. Most of all,
thank You for loving us so
much that You laid down Your
life on the cross so we might
have everlasting life with
You. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Amen.

Lynn Werner, Jean Powell, Carol Adams, April Smith, Gay Perrin,
Carolyn Thomas, Dean Barnitz, Judy Jewell, Ellie Blaettnar and
Emma Powell. The “Little Dresses for Africa” program continues
today.

POMEROY — Some people
go quietly about their daily lives,
contributing in meaningful ways
that often go unnoticed. Once such
individual is Dean Barnitz, whose
love of sewing has touched so
many lives.
She has become known for her
talent and generously volunteers
to mend ﬂags for VFW Post 39
and sew “Little Dresses for Africa”
at Trinity United Methodist
Church.
Speaking with Barnitz, she will
tell you “I am 99 years old, and

I have been sewing for over 80
years.”
Born in 1919 in Racine, she
moved to Pomeroy with her husband in 1949 when he returned
home after being stationed in
the Philippines and Japan during World War II. She keeps his
discharge card in a basket on her
desk, and said “I’ve lived in the
same house ever since.”
She ﬁrst learned to sew around
1932, when she took classes at
Racine High School.
“Sewing isn’t something a lot of
women do nowadays,” she said,
“But I’ve never stopped.”
According to the VFW, ﬂags

are expensive, and Barnitz has
used her expertise to reinforce the
edges to prevent tearing and mend
torn ones, extending the life of the
ﬂags. The VFW is very appreciative of her work and holds her in
high regard, but she doesn’t see it
as anything extraordinary.
“I like to keep busy and help the
VFW,” she says modestly.
Barnitz can be found most

Methodist Church with her sewing

New activities
planned for Mason
County seniors
By Mindy Kearns
Special to the Register

MASON — Mason County’s senior citizens will
have the opportunity to participate in a number
of new activities planned for the remainder of the
year, according to Renae Rifﬂe, executive director
of the Mason County Action Group.
Rifﬂe, along with Assistant Director Ann Dalton, said they wanted to offer the seniors at both
the Mason Senior Center, as well as the Gene
Salem Senior Center in Point Pleasant, with added
events and some evening dances.
Four themed dances, including a senior prom,
will be held in Point Pleasant. Rifﬂe said the dances will be held in the early evening to afford those
who might not be able to attend the center in the
daytime a chance to participate. The dances will
be from 5 to 7 p.m.
The senior prom will be the ﬁrst, and is set for
May 18. Dalton said this is the second year for
holding a prom, however last year’s dance was
held in the morning.
Seniors are invited to wear fancy attire, although
it is not required. Photos will be taken at the
prom, and a king and queen will be crowned.
The remaining theme dances will be held Aug.
17, which is a Summer Bash; Oct. 19, Fall Fling;
and Dec. 7, Winterfest. Admission to each dance
is $5, which includes deejay music, dancing and
refreshments. All seniors are invited to the dances,
regardless if they normally attend the center activities.
In addition, a fundraiser dance will be held June
8 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Gene Salem Senior Center. A live band, “Stephanie and the Mark IV” will
be featured, and the event is open to the public.
Admission is $5, and concessions will be sold.
Rifﬂe and Dalton said the action group is placing more emphasis on the Mason Senior Center
this year, branching out with some new activities.
The ﬁrst was held Monday, when the seniors
made bird houses as part of a new craft day. A second craft day will be held Dec. 3, when the group
will make Christmas ornaments.
A series of themed parties will be held at the
Mason center, starting with the Summer Cookout
on July 2 at 11:30 a.m. A Luau will be held Aug. 27
at 10 a.m., followed by a Carnival on Sept. 17 at 10
a.m.
An open house will be held in Mason on Sept. 7
from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. as a part of Senior Center
Month. Rifﬂe said the event will be open to the
public, with special invitations being issued to the
mayors and town council members in the Bend
Area.
Finally, Mason seniors will be taking a day trip
to Cedar Lakes near Ripley on May 23 for the Robert W. Jackson Senior Conference.

Generations run the family business
By Lorna Hart
Special to OVP

EAST LETART, Ohio
— Running a family business is often a struggle,
so it is refreshing to see
one that truly has an
emphasis on “family.”

Darrell Norris, like
many others in Letart
Township, grew up farming. After high school he
continued growing tomatoes and cabbage, but
after seeing a decrease
in demand and prices,
turned his attention to

annuals in 1980. Instead
of seasonal crops that are
at the mercy of weather,
greenhouses offer an
opportunity to control
the climate and to no longer be dependent on just
one growing season.
His efforts paid off for

himself, his family, and
the community. Today
the venture employs 25
permanent employees,
as well as around 70 seasonal workers.

‘$ponsor a $enior’ effort launched
Regional programs benefit seniors

OH-70041523

OHIO VALLEY — The
annual Senior Farmers’
Market Nutrition Program is so popular that
inevitably the demand
outpaces the available
funding. Year-over-year,
the Buckeye Hills region
in southeast Ohio maintains waiting lists with
hundreds of seniors who
never get coupons for
fresh market items. The
Buckeye Hills Regional
Council, the lead agency
for the Southeast
Ohio Aging &amp; Disability Resource Network,

administers the program.
The Senior Farmers’
Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) provides
income-eligible senior
citizens with special
coupons worth $50 to
enjoy locally grown fresh
fruits, vegetables, herbs
and honey. While the
Senior Farmers’ Market
Nutrition Program is
funded by USDA and
the Ohio Department of
Aging, their funding is
LIMITED. Many incomeeligible seniors are
placed on waiting lists.

Program coupons may
be exchanged for eligible
foods from authorized
farmers. Only fresh, locally grown fruits, herbs,
vegetables and honey are
eligible to be purchased
with the coupons.
“Since 1974, we have
been a trusted source for
information and access
to a full-range of available
services, programs and
options to help individuals, regardless of age or
disability, remain at
home,” said Aging Director Jennifer Westfall.
“We decided to create the
$ponsor a $enior program
and ask the community to

for Senior Farmers’ Market Coupons in the form
of donations. A donation
of $50 will sponsor one
of the 500+ seniors in
Southeast Ohio on the
current waiting list for
Senior Farmers’ Market
Nutrition Program coupons.” Last year the program’s donations helped
take 127 seniors off the
waiting list.
Westfall added that

Staying well in your golden years
POINT PLEASANT
— Remember the days
where you could take
your health for granted
and bounce back from
any setback? You may
still feel 20, but it’s likely
that your body just isn’t
as nimble as it used to be
back then. But as long as
you’re keeping up with
your annual checkups,
you can ensure you’re as
healthy as possible.
“Prevention is the
best medicine,” says
Dr. Randall Hawkins, a
primary care physician
for Pleasant Valley Hospital. “According to data
from the World Health
Organization, 80 percent
of diseases like heart
disease, stroke, cancer,
and diabetes can be prevented. Knowing your
risk factors and getting
regular checkups is one
of the easiest ways to get

ahead of these types of
diseases.”
Annual checkups can
help your doctors spot
issues quicker. Starting
with your well man or
well woman checkup,
it’s important to talk to
your doctor about any
concerns you may be having about your health.
Regular blood pressure
checks, as well as checking your weight and cholesterol and blood sugar
levels, can help determine
if there are any changes
happening within your
body that need to be
addressed.
The American Cancer
Society recommends that

The World Health
Organization cites that
most chronic diseases are
the result of four distinct
behaviors that lead to
metabolic and physiological changes: smoking,
a sedentary lifestyle, an
unhealthy diet, and the
abuse of alcohol. Often,
these issues cause high
blood pressure, obesity,
high blood sugar, and
high cholesterol, which
can elevate the chances
that you’ll have to battle a
chronic disease.
“Be sure to follow the
steps to staying at your
healthiest, no matter
what age you are,” Dr.
Hawkins says. “It’s never
too late to stop smoking
or to exercise and eat
right, and you can actually reverse the effects
these bad habits have had
on your health.”

Dr. Hawkins recommends that you eating
plenty of healthy foods,
include fresh fruits and
vegetables, lean meats,
and foods that have
healthy levels of carbohydrates and low amounts
of sugar and saturated
fats. He also recommends
regular exercise, which
includes both cardiovascular exercise and
strength training to keep
your body at its best.
“Staying healthy
doesn’t have to be hard,”
he says. “Be honest with
your doctor and be sure
to contact us if you notice
any changes that concern
you. We’re here for you
every step of the way.”

Reds fire manager Bryan
Price after 3-15 start
CINCINNATI (AP)
— The Reds’ worst
start since the Great
Depression prompted
a quick hook for Bryan
Price.
The Reds ﬁred their
ﬁfth-year manager on
Thursday because of
their 3-15 start, the
ﬁrst managerial change
in the major leagues
this season. The Reds
hadn’t changed managers so early in a season
since Tony Perez was
ﬁred after 44 games in
1993.
Price managed a
rebuilding effort that
relied on rookies more
than any other team in
the majors during his
tenure. The Reds have
lost at least 94 games
in each of the last three
seasons while ﬁnishing
last in the NL Central.
Although the Reds
have been patient with
their coaching staff
during the rebuild,
their worst start since
1931 prompted the
change.

The Reds have fired Bryan Price after a 3-15 start, the first
managerial change in the major leagues this season. Price
was in his fifth season leading the rebuilding team. The Reds
have lost at least 94 games in each of the last three seasons
while finishing last in the NL Central. Bench coach Jim
Riggleman will manage the team on an interim basis.

to wait,” general manager Dick Williams said
during a conference
call. “I know it seems
early to some people
and it certainly is early
in the regular season,
but … we’ve had a lot
of chances to observe
this group together and
see them get off to the
start we’d hoped, and it
wasn’t there.”
Bench coach Jim
Riggleman will manage
the team on an interim
basis, the fourth time
in his career he’s been

promoted during a
season. Riggleman
also has managed the
Padres, Cubs, Mariners
and Nationals. He’s
expected to be a candidate for the full-time
job. Williams said the
club will pick its next
manager later in the
season.
Riggleman said his
focus will be “to really
put an exclamation
point on the details of
the game.” Eight of the
Reds’ losses have been
by two runs or less.

SPENCER, W.Va. —
And it all started out so
well.
The Southern softball
team led 1-0, but surrendered nine straight runs
and fell to non-conference
host Roane County by a
9-1 count in ﬁve innings
on Wednesday in the
Mountaineer State.
Southern (7-3) claimed
the 1-0 lead in the top of
the ﬁrst inning, as Jaiden
Roberts drew a walk,
stole two bases and then
scored on a wild pitch.
Roane County (15-3)
took the lead with one
out in the bottom of the
ﬁrst inning, however, as
Olivia Mace hit a two-run
home run.
Southern’s ﬁrst two
batters of the second
inning reached safely and
eventually made it second
and third, but the next
12 Lady Tornadoes were
retired in order.
The Lady Raiders were
blanked in the second and
third innings, but began
adding on to their lead in
the bottom of the fourth,
plating ﬁve runs on four
errors and three hits.
Olivia Mace doubled
home two runs for RCHS
in the bottom of ﬁfth,
sealing the 9-1 mercy rule
victory.
Sydney Cleland suffered
the setback for the Lady
Tornadoes, striking out
two batters in a complete
game, while surrendering

nine runs, three earned,
on 11 hits and a walk.
Olivia Mace was the
winning pitcher of record
for Roane County, giving
up one earned run, two
hits and two walks, while
striking out eight.
Shelbi Dailey and Ciera
Whitesell each singled
once for the Lady Tornadoes, while Roberts
scored the team’s only
run.
Olivia Mace led the
RCHS offense, going
4-for-4 with a home run, a
double, a run scored and
three runs batted in. Halle
Farmer was 2-for-3 with a
run, Allison Mace doubled
once, scored once and
drove in one run, while

once and scored twice.
Carley Jarrell singled
once, scored once and
drove in a pair for the
victors, Shelby Lassiter
singled once and scored
once, while Hannah Lambert had a single and Ashlyn Spears scored a run.
The Lady Tornadoes

on base, four fewer than
RCHS.

Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division play
with a doubleheader
against South Gallia on
Thursday, and then SHS
hosts rival Eastern on
