Fulton County Receives Wellness Grant; Implements Wellness Initiatives For 2014
Fulton County is pleased to announce that they are the recipients of a Wellness Grant for 2014 from the County Employee Benefits Consortium of Ohio (CEBCO). The award of $5,760, will be used for implementing a variety of wellness initiatives for county employees who are enrolled in CEBCO, the countys insurance provider. We are thrilled to receive this grant, states Laura Howell, Director of Organizational Development for Fulton County. Fulton County has a long history of providing wellness to their employees. However, over the last few years, we havent been able to provide as many wellness initiatives as funding sources have diminished. So receiving this award is exciting for us as we feel that it is beneficial for employees to have access to healthy lifestyle activities as well as to have access to education on a variety of topics related to health. Howell notes that a wellness committee, comprised of various county employees and community members has been re-instated and has begun planning 2014 initiatives. The committee is currently comprised of Howell, Sharon Morr, Director of Corporate and Community Health Promotion at Fulton County Health Center, Rachel Kinsman, Health Education Coordinator/Public Information Officer for the Fulton County Health Department, Melissa Welker, OSU Extension Family and Consumer Sciences Educator, and Toni Schindler, Director of Marketing and Communications for Fulton County Commissioners. Events slated for 2014 include an Onsite Wellness Coach who will be available to meet with employees in one-on-one sessions to encourage healthy lifestyle choices. There will be quarterly Lunch and Learn Sessions highlighting Onsite Coaching, DermaScan, Local Foods and Healthy Holiday Eating. The committee is also working on implementing facility walking routes at different county building sites and will work with Geographical Information Systems to design user friendly maps. They will also be designing stairway signage that will encourage stair use. The yearly biometric and body fat composition screenings will be available again in late 2014.

Held at the Huntington Center in Toledo, the concert had an audience of over three thousand people. Beethovens 9th Symphony was the first symphony ever to include a chorus part in it.

With Unemployment rates continuing to fall across Counties and the State, some readers have formed their own opinions and shared last week online. It is encouraging to see manufacturing positions advertised in local newspapers. Jobs yes, but are they with full time benefits? Or is that becoming something of the last decade? Im all for part time work as long as it doesnt mean multiple part time jobs to stay afloat for the long term. Just my opinion. -Rose Its bologna. Quite easy to adjust the formula to reduce unemployment. They just stop counting a person as unemployed after 6 months. Those numbers are pure B.S. Our Govt is totally corrupt. -Richard Dont believe it! The government took away the extension which left tons of people still without a job but off of the unemployment benefits. Makes it look real good on paper but more people are struggling than any one realizes. The government sugar coats so much and people are falling for it. Our country is in a sad state. -Myrna Also consider that the average jobs that are slowly coming back do not pay nearly as much as the average job that was lost previously. Between people dropping out of the workforce and average wages decreasing, things are still pretty bleak. -Jason One thing to keep in mind is that there are several people who were dropped off the list because they still dont have a job and their benefits ended. These figures do not include those whose benefits have ended. -Steven

Stryker Rotary Members Enjoy Special Stryker Rotarian Helping To Provide Learning Materials To Children Display Thanks To Local Woodcarver
When Mel Honig retired he knew he wanted to do something meaningful with his time. He had ran successful businesses and wanted to put his many talents to good use. As a District 6600 Rotarian, Mel became involved with Resource Centers International, a MASA project assisting to provide learning resources to underprivileged people outside the United States. Mel was involved with the work in Belize and Jamaica, providing donated items such as books and computers to children. Mel has seen first hand the difference some of these resources
make in the lives of children. He also understands that the largest impact is made with children at a very young age. Many of the children served by this program will begin the learning process at 3 to 5 years of age. He has also learned that family support is very important, so the schools often involve the parents in the learning process of the children. Children naturally love to learn and thrive in the proper environment. Mel on the left is pictured with Stryker Rotary President Ruth Wieland and Rotarian Rev. Dane Meuschke.

Vic Dunlap has been carving wooden figures for 35 years. He spoke as a guest of Ray Brown at the Stryker Rotary Meeting on Tuesday. Vic brought an extensive display of his work as well as pictures of other items he has made over the years. Vic said he begins by tracing a figure on two sides of a block of wood. Using either a scroll saw or a band saw he cuts along the figure traced on the block. Further work is done with either a knife or a power tool called a dremmel. Vic has competed in carving shows
around the area and earned awards for his work. He enjoys carving animals, as well as people. Working on animals requires study to insure the anatomy is correct. The research can be extensive because most documented pictures of animals are from the face side, and a carving requires study of all sides. Vic has also carved Christmas ornaments for his children each of the last 23 years. Vic Dunlap, pictured on the left, and Ray Brown are pictured in front of a table displaying some of Vics work.

Prom Night In Stryker, Ohio: One Village, One Town, & Seven Cities In One Night
By: Timothy Kays THE VILLAGE REPORTER Post-Prom activities were about to commence in the school. The doors of the Stryker School were transformed into a portal in which attendees crossed the portal and passed from Stryker, Ohio, straight into Paris. As the yellow brick road transported Dorothy and her entourage to the Kingdom of Oz, so did the cobblestone path just inside the doorway at the school. Beginning on a side street in old La Ville-Lumire and proceeding past the check-in point to the Caf de Pari in the Commons where one could step up to the microphone for karaoke, the cobblestone path was the magic carpet that carried away the attendees to A Night in the City...and not just one city. One could depart Paris with a short walk which led to Las Vegas, complete with Texas holdem, blackjack and roulette tables. Retracing their steps through the Caf and across the way on the other side of the path, attendees could immediately find themselves in a dance competition in New Orleans. Half of the western world awaited within fifteen seconds of check-in... There was so much more to follow for those who followed the cobblestone path. Hollywood awaited beyond Vegas, where the photo booth was ready to get your good side. A turn to the left found attendees chilling out with slushees and movies in Honolulu. Further down was the sports City of Champions, Detroit, complete with tests of baseball hitting skills, football throwing ability, and basketball three-point shooting prowess. The final stop took the attendees to the City That Never Sleeps...New York. Steeping through the portal put the traveler into a trendy New York night club. Dancing was of course the standard, but New York also offered shirt, face and arm painting. Before departing the Big Apple, attendees signed a graffiti wall. This was quite the event for those in attendance at the 2014 Stryker Prom and Post-Prom. After all, it isnt everybody that can leave a village, drive to a neighboring town, then hit seven major cities in Europe and America... all before the first light of the dawn on the following day. Timothy Kays can be reached at tim@thevillagereporter.com.
The Defiance Room of the NWOESC/ NWOCA building in Archbold is not only spacious, but it has a flair of the Gilded Age to it as well. One has difficulties seeing the decor when the lights are turned down though, especially when the center of the room has been transformed into a dance floor whose lighting commands attention. This was just the tip of the iceberg of what awaited those in attendance as they walked the Red Carpet into the 2014 Stryker High School Prom on the evening of May 3. After socializing, the attendees feasted on a sumptuous buffet style banquet featuring prime rib, along with Fettuccini Alfredo with charbroiled chicken. Rounding out the feast was corn, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and tossed salads. Of course an occasion such as this demanded an ambrosia worthy of the event, and it was available in abundance. Huge strawberries and other dippables, all stationed next to a decadent chocolate fountain, the mere aroma of which could stop even an amateur chocoholic dead in their tracks. After the meal, an evening of dancing under the fog-illuminated lasers made for an exceptional night. Highlighting this portion of the evening was the naming and coronations of the 2014 Stryker Prom King and Queen...Zach Greutman and his date, Ruthann Stuckey. The newly crowned King and Queen reigned over the festivities until they wound down with the approach of the 11:00 hour. The venue then changed from Archbold back to Stryker, where the

WAUSEON--- It was a night filled with glitz and glamor, and it was one that surpassed all expectations as the 2014 Wauseon junior/senior prom took place. The theme for the night was Party At Gatsbys , based on the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic 1925 novel and the recently released movie, The Great Gatsby. The big day started early in the morning, with volunteers coming to the high school around 9 a.m. to start cutting potatoes, frosting cupcakes, and getting other foods ready to cook. The finishing touches were made to the decorations, making sure everything was perfect for the night to come. The meal and dance part of the prom took place in the high schools gym but you wouldnt have been able to tell it was a basketball gym if you didnt know it. The junior class did an excellent job preparing, designing, and building what turned out to be one of the best prom elaborations in recent memory according to many in attendance. The gym was decorated with black and gold. The bleachers were covered with wooden panels that had been painted to look like a scene straight from the movie. A drop ceiling was put over the entire room to make for a much more intimate scene. The stage was back-dropped by several golden pillars, with a pair of eyes looking over the room, a motif that comes from the movie and book. One of the great Wauseon prom traditions is pictures at South Park before the prom begins. Dozens and dozens of prom-goers come to the park to get their pictures taken at the gazebo and to get a sneak peak of
school for the after-prom festivities. There were games, prizes, and even a hypnotist show. However, the party didnt stop their as then the attendees moved out to Skye Cinema in Wauseon where they were treated to their choice of movies, and where some were treated to much needed naps. In the end, the night was a successful one, and will be remembered by all who came for the rest of the lives. It was a night filled with dancing, singing, celebrating, and was without a doubt a fitting send off for the class of 2014. Mitch Peebles may be reached at publisher@thevillagereporter.com.

ADAMhs Board Awards $4.7 Million In Contracts Starting July 1 Building Permit & Development
As all of us look forward to warmer weather, many remodeling and construction projects are being planned. In order to clarify the building permit process, we kindly submit the following information for public reference: 1) Ohio Revised Code 5713.17 states that written notice shall be given to the county auditor by any person making structural improvements to their property or buildings costing more than $2,000. The county auditor is authorized to appraise any building or improvement that is discovered and was not previously notified of construction by the owner. The auditor will place the new valuation upon the tax list and duplicate at its taxable value for all the years from the date of completion to the date of discovery, together with a penalty equal to fifty percent (50%) of the taxes that would have been collected had the county auditor been notified of its construction as required. 2) In Williams County, a building permit is required for all new construction including renovation of existing structures, regardless of value, as established by resolution of the Williams County Commissioners. Persons living within a city or village of Williams County must obtain their building permits through their city or village office (except for Blakeslee and Holiday City). Persons living outside of a municipality, plus the villages of Blakeslee and Holiday City, will be required to obtain a county building permit from the Auditors office, located on the second floor of the courthouse. (Office hours are 8:30 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday). 3) The cost of building permits obtained from a city or village office may vary. The cost of a county building permit obtained at the Auditors office is $25 if the construction value is $2,000 or more. There is no fee for the county building permit if the construction value is under $2,000, however the building permit is still required. A penalty of $100 may be assessed, along with the permit fee, for any permit not obtained before the start of construction. These fees and penalties may be added to the real estate taxes of those who fail to acquire a building permit. A BUILDING PERMIT AND A
ZONING PERMIT ARE TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT DOCUMENTS WITH SEPARATE PURPOSES. Center, Pulaski, and Springfield Townships are zoned townships. Residents of Center Township must obtain a zoning permit, prior to construction, from the township zoning inspector (phone 419-636-5522). The Center Township zoning permit must be presented when applying for the county building permit. Residents of Springfield Township must obtain a zoning permit, prior to construction, from Springfield Township zoning inspector, Phil Short (phone 419682-6421). The Springfield Township zoning permit must be presented when applying for the county building permit. Pulaski Township is County Zoned and residents must contact the chairman of the zoning board, Gerald Boynton (419-633-3384) prior to construction. Also, residents of Lake Seneca must contact Carol Swiatkowski of the Lake Seneca Property Owners Association at 419-485-5995 prior to construction to obtain a permit. The Lake Seneca permit must be presented when applying for the county building permit. FLOOD PLAIN DEVELOPMENT PERMIT If your property has any federally regulated flood plain on it, a Williams County Flood Plain Development Permit is required before obtaining a building permit. Since Williams County participates in the FEMA Flood Insurance Program, the county is required to monitor development in the flood plain and this permit provides the information necessary for Williams County to comply with the FEMA requirements. The current 100 year flood zones can be viewed on the mapping portion of the Williams County Auditors web page. The flood plain development permit is free and the forms and other requirements are available at the Williams County Engineers Office located at 12953 County Road G, Bryan, Ohio, or by contacting the Engineer at 419-636-2454. Should you have any questions regarding the building permit process, please contact the Williams County Auditors office at 419-636-5639.

With a new fiscal year starting in less than three months, the Four County ADAMhs Board awarded nearly $4.7 million in contracts for a variety of mental health, addiction and related healthcare services. The largest contracts were awarded to Maumee Valley Guidance Center, $1,550,000, and Recovery Services of Northwest Ohio, $1,200,000. Also receiving contracts at the April board meeting were Four County Family Center, $528,232; the Fulton County Health Center (Stress Unit), $400,000; First Call for Help, Inc., $315,000; New Home Development Company, $262,000; Health Partners of Western Ohio, $231,000; the Center for Child and Family Advocacy, $126,511; and Northwest Ohio Community Action Commission (The P.A.T.H. Center), $65,000. Several smaller contracts were also approved for the 2014-15 fiscal year. Those include Glenn Adult Foster Care in Toledo, $11,800; Unison Behavioral Health, $3,600; and attorney Carla Davis for representation at commitment hearings at the rate of $110 per hour. Additional contracts for next year will be brought to the board for approval in May and June. The board approved the following appropriations for the current fiscal year: Williams County Department of Job and Family Services, up to $26,000 as the boards share of a residential placement; Maumee Valley Guidance Center, $7,600 for a group home placement; First Call for Help, $5,000 for emergency transportation
costs; Defiance County Health Department, $600 for the Parents Who Host Lose the Most underage drinking awareness campaign; and the Fulton County Health Department, $1,000 for a consultant to review the countys submission of a DrugFree Communities grant renewal. In his report to the board, CEO Les McCaslin said that mid-year budget correction bill has passed the Ohio House of Representatives and is now headed to the state senate. He noted that two items will affect behavioral health, although it is not entirely clear how the impact will be felt at this time. First, the state is seeking to keep $47.5 million in funding next year that had been allocated directly to boards this year to meet local needs. The state intends to target this money on opiate addiction. This would mean a reduction of $340,000 in state funding to the Four County ADAMhs Board next year unless it is changed in the senate. The budget also proposes that the state create 90 additional mental health crisis beds at six different locations across Ohio for the boards to use. If approved, a total of 540 additional mental health crisis beds would be created and more than 400 recovery beds would be created for opiaterelated addiction. The next meeting of the board will be held at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, May 14 at the ADAMhs Board office on State Route 66 south of Archbold.
