Highland helps set world Theater Vision launches 26th

record for summer reading
Students at Highland
Elementary School helped
made it a record summer for
reading, logging more than
356,000 reading minutes over
the summer break. The effort
was part of the Scholastic
Summer Challenge program,
which asked kids to log their
summer reading minutes in an
attempt to set a new world
record for summer reading.
More than 110,850 kids from
more than 5,500 schools rep-
resenting all 50 states in the
U.S. and 120 countries world-
wide smashed the world record
for summer reading, logging
a total of 52,710,368 reading
minutes. The previous record
set in 2009 was 35,846,094
minutes read.
Highland Elementary
School is one of the top 20
schools that logged the most
minutes and will there-
fore be listed in the 2011
Scholastic Book of World
Records, which will be avail-
able through Scholastic Book
Fairs, Scholastic Book Clubs
and in bookstores nationwide
in November 2010. On behalf
of all the readers participat-
ing in the Summer Challenge,
Admissions events invite
Scholastic is making a dona-
tion of 50,000 new books to
kids in need through Reading
Is Fundamental, a children’s
literacy non-profit.
We congratulate all the stu-
dents who joined the Scholastic
Summer Challenge and helped
break the world record for
summer reading,” said Francie
Alexander, Chief Academic
Officer, Scholastic. “We know
that when kids read four or
more books over the summer
months, they go back to school
ready to learn and excited to
read books all year long.”
The Scholastic Summer
Challenge was created to
encourage all kids to read four
or more books over the sum-
mer and Read for the World
Record, while at the same
time helping them avoid the
“Summer Slide,” a common
loss of skills due simply to being
out of school. The Scholastic
Summer Challenge will be
back next year with even more
exciting books, activities and
challenges. Don’t miss it!

season with The Adventures of
Harold & the Purple Crayon
This fall, Lourdes College’s
Theater Vision arts education
program launches its 26th sea-
son with the following three
dynamic and varied tales:
The Adventures of Har-
old & the Purple Crayon
– Thursday, October 14
The Adventures of Harold &
the Purple Crayon shares the
story of Harold who decides
one fateful evening to go for
a walk in the moonlight. As he
sets out on his journey, Harold
quickly realizes there is no
moon in the night sky or a path
to walk on. With the help of
only a purple crayon, Harold
draws not only the moon and
walking path, but the world in
which he wants to explore.
This new production by
Enchantment Theatre takes
audiences on an exciting and
imaginative ride as Harold
jets to Mars, joins a circus and
meets a king in a wondrous
garden. Using all the elements
of its signature style, which
combines life-size puppets,
bring a new bill to Capitol
Hill?
Fancy Nancy – Nancy
teaches her family how to have
a prodigious vocabulary and
be fancy!
Leonardo, the Terrible
Monster – Leonardo learns
about the power of friendship.
I Have To Go! – Andrew
insists that he doesn’t need to
use the restroom, but once he’s
zippered, snapped, buttoned
and buckled in the backseat, he
hears the call of nature.
Let’s Do Nothing! – fol-
lows Frankie and Sal after they
have played all of their games,
read all their comic books and
baked zillions of cookies. The
two then face their biggest
challenge: can two boys with Harold & the Purple Crayon.

mates show up to claim a bur-
ied treasure, only to wake his
little sister. The whole piratical
crew must go on babysitting

Community Journalism finds a way

service
Off
Dome
By Judge Ramey
Sylvania Municipal Court
What is judicially mandated
community service and how
does it work? Judicially man-
dated community service is a
form of punishment that a judge
can impose on sentenced offend-
ers instead of or in addition to a
jail sentence. Work is performed
for community organizations
approved by the court. Typically
they are nonprofit agencies that
can benefit from volunteer assis-
tance. In Sylvania Municipal
Court, some of the agencies used
are Tam-O-Shanter, the Crissey
Road Thrift Shop, the Sylvania
Senior Center, and the Village
of Holland.
Not all community orga-
nizations feel they can benefit
from community service in part
because supervision is required
to insure that the offender’s
hours have been completed.
Generally, most judicially man-
dated community service work
is performed within the terri-
tory of the court district. This
is not always practical if the
offender does not live close to
the court district and if transpor-
tation is an issue. In some cases
the Probation Department will
contact the local court near the
offender’s residence to find a
suitable agency.
When is community service
appropriate? It is used most often
for nonviolent offenders when a
fine and court costs are not suf-
ficient, but a jail sentence is not
appropriate. License violations
such as driving under suspension
or driving without a license are the
most common charges for which
community service is ordered in
the Sylvania Municipal Court.
Occasionally, community ser-
vice can be ordered in addition to
jail time usually as an alternative
to a lengthier sentence.
In 2009, offenders performed

11,307 hours of community ser-
vice for the Sylvania Municipal
Court. When a judge has ordered
an offender to complete com-
munity service, the probation
department will assign that per-
son to a specific agency and
schedule a date for completion of
the hours. The agency is required
to report to the probation depart-
ment whether the offender has or
has not completed the required
hours. If the offender fails to
complete the hours, the judge has
the option to order the offender
to jail as a probation violation
or for contempt of court. The
threat of jail is usually sufficient
incentive to make sure the hours
are completed, but unfortunately
there are a number of offenders
each year who receive a jail sen-
tence they could have avoided
because of failure to complete
the hours. Jail space is limited
and expensive for the communi-
ty so it should not be used unless
necessary. This makes commu-
nity service a welcome option.
It saves jail time for those who
truly need it while providing for
much needed assistance to agen-
cies that could use the help.
The Sylvania Municipal
Court is always interested in
community service organiza-
tions including churches who are
interested in receiving judicially
mandated community service
assistance. The Probation depart-
ment can be contacted at 419-

of the program, Lourdes was
awarded $34,783 for the first
year of a three year project in
which we will partner with the
Lucas County Board of Elec-
tions to assist with the training
and mobilization of the more
than 1,400 poll workers who
are needed to serve our metro-
politan area.
the project will also receive
credit for fulfilling the service-
learning component of their
coursework.
“We are looking forward
to partnering with the Lucas
County Board of Elections and
establishing a thriving tradi-
tion of election participation on
campus,” shares Dr. Stephanie
Anderson Quinn, Academic
Counselor for TRiO and Proj-
ect Coordinator. “Poll worker
shortages are not uncommon
during election season – in
2008, nearly half of all juris-
tance to our local community.”

SYLVANIA HISTORY THE SYLVANIA HERALD Page 9

History of the southwest corner of Main and Monroe

By Gayleen Gindy
Time travel would be
great wouldn’t it? If time
travel were possible some
would want to go ahead and
see what’s in store for them
in the future. But I would
go back in time. To see,
look and observe what it
was like to live in Sylvania
years ago. I would observe
things much different than
the average citizen; looking
at details, and noticing things
that nobody else notices. I
would take mental pictures
of the properties and struc-
tures, as well as photographs
of important things; knowing
that in time things would
definitely change.
Let’s take the four cor-
ners of Main and Monroe for
instance. I could take each
corner and write a book on
the people who owned each
of these corner lots, include
history about the structures
that occupied the properties,
the changes that were made
over the years, things and
events that occurred on the
property to make it important
to the history of the commu-
nity, and how it got to where
it is today.
Taking the southwest cor-
ner of Main and Monroe,
where Speedway is located,
here’s some of the informa-
tion I found on this prop-
erty.
The Marathon Oil
Company struck a deal in
1963 to purchase the wooden
commercial building that was
located for approximately
130 years, on the southwest
corner of Main and Monroe
(along with the two resi-
dential homes to the west).
This oil company planned to
demolish what was probably
one of the first structures
to have been constructed in
Sylvania. They decided that
downtown Sylvania needed
another modern gas and ser-
vice station. Over these years,
the service station structures
have changed on this corner,
but the main business here
has been gasoline sales since
1963. Hundreds of people
today get their gasoline, cof-
fee and other necessary items
at the Speedway on this cor-
ner of Sylvania, and it serves
Sylvania well.
61 years old, and his occu-
pation was listed as physi-
cian. In 1846 the property
and structure at this corner
was transferred to his son,
George B. Minor. George
owned the property for ten
years before selling in 1856
to William F. Dewey; a large
land owner in Sylvania at
that time.
Two years later, in 1858,
George F. Moore, a 22 year
old resident of Sylvania,
purchased this corner prop-
erty and started operating a
grocery store in this corner
building. Locally, a murder
had just occurred a few years
before, within 100 feet of
this corner property. A resi-
dent murdered his wife, and
in an attempt to cover-up the
murder, he burned her body
in his cooking stove. But,
George knew that Sylvania
was still a safe community
and decided to set up his
shop here. A year later, in
1859, he sold half interest in
the property and business to
his brother Peter Valentine
Moore. In 1860 when the
census taker canvassed
Sylvania residents for their
information, he recorded
Peter V. Moore working as a
grocer, at the age of 27 years
old, and his brother George
F. Moore working as a farm-
er at the age of 24 years old.
Both were married; while
Peter and Mary had a 10
month old daughter, George
and Jane did not have any
children yet. No one knew
that in just one short year, the
United States would become
involved in a war that would
last for four long years.
Peter V. Moore operated
the store in this building,
while his brother George
farmed and sold his produce
here at their store; both still
owning half interest in the
business. On 4-20-1863 the
Sylvania Township Board
of Education paid Moore &
Brothers for repairs at one of
the schools, and on 4-8-1864
the Board of Education paid
Peter V. Moore for repairs he
made at one of the schools.
As the Civil War raged
on, in early 1864 President
Lincoln put out a desperate
plea for all available volun-
teers. Peter agreed to vol-
unteer, joining as a Private

If you walked by the build-
ing on any given evening,
there could be heard the
sounds of music, talking
and laughter floating from
within the building walls
from the parties, fund rais-
ers and meetings that they
held. And around the rear of
the building you could again
hear laughter and the crack-
ling of wood burning as the
veterans, and their families,
often gathered around a great
bonfire to hear stories about
the Great War and ghosts
of years past. Each year the
G.A.R. and W.R.C. would
all prepare for the events
of the annual Memorial Day
celebration in Sylvania.
Veterans assembled at this
hall before they paraded to the
local cemeteries, where they
would decorate the graves
of their old comrades and
listen to patriotic addresses
in the depot grove, located
where Southbriar shopping
complex is today.

and changing lives. Please join us
as we celebrate our centennial
anniversary and pay tribute to the
people who have made our legacy
possible – you.

(Continued from page 1)
Maumee improves to 3-1
overall, while Northview fell
to 2-2.
The Wildcats had shown
they were able to move the
football, however, and one
positive sign had been the
kickoff returns by senior
Zach Crampton. Crampton
had three returns covering 71
yards, so the Wildcats began
using him more in their offen-
sive schemes.
After Downing completed
t e n t h t w e n t y t e n a 9-yard pass to senior wide
receiver Tyler Schinharl,
Crampton had consecu-
tive runs of 13 and 7 yards.
The third quarter ended with
Northview at the Maumee 33,
but the Wildcat’s drive did
not end there.
A 3-yard run by junior
Josh Davis, a five-yard run
by, believe it or not, 5-foot-
6, 240 pound senior Brian
Mignin (normally an offen-
sive lineman), a 12-yard pass
from Downing to senior Jake
Martinez, and a 2-yard run by
Crampton got Northview to

for two points during the con-
version so they could be down
by two potential”touchdowns,
24-8. The conversion worked
as Downing found Hirschfeld
wide open cutting across the
end zone.
Northview did not call it
quits. Downing completed
two passes, a 13-yarder to
senior tight end Jacob Sturt,
an 11-yarder to Crampton,
and a 26-yarder to Schinharl.
Along with a 15-yard rough-
ing the passer penalty the
Wildcats were suddenly in
the red zone again, this time
facing a first down at the
Maumee seven-yard line.
As 6:23 showed on the
clock, Downing’s next pass was
intercepted by Phenix in the
end zone, and Northview would
never get the football back.
For Northview, Downing
completed 7-of-19 passes for
94 yards, but the three inter-
ceptions hurt.
Crampton had 11 carries
for 44 yards, Hirschfeld had
43 yards on seven carries,
Davis had 16 yards on four
carries, Hall had two yards
on one carry, and Downing
had minus-four yards on three
carries. Downing also punted
five times for an average of
38.4 per kick, including his
longest of 44 yards.

Prevent a stroke in 5 simple steps Eat, drink and be healthy: how

Did you know that 80 per-
cent of all strokes are prevent-
able? That figure, from the
National Stroke Association,
illustrates just how important it
is that you know the steps nec-
essary to prevent a stroke from
affecting your life. What might
surprise you is that many of
those steps are lifestyle sug-
gestions you’ve heard before
- they just have the added ben-
efit of helping to ward off a
stroke.
In honor of May being
Stroke Awareness Month, Life
Line Screening wants to share
the list of lifestyle changes that
can help aid in stroke preven-
tion and to remind you that a
preventive stroke screening
can help you identify your par-
ticular risk factors. Knowing
exactly how you can protect
yourself from a stroke - which
affects approximately 800,000
Americans each year - may in-
spire you to take action.
Many people are taking
the steps to improve the qual-
ity of their lives. Even though
the modifications can be dif-
ficult, the life-saving benefits
they can offer are worth the
effort. Only you can make
the decision to take control of
your wellness. Start with these
simple steps:
Step 1. Don’t smoke.
If you smoke, quitting is
one of the most important
things you can do to decrease
your chances of a stroke. Puff-
ing on tobacco sets the stage
for a stroke in the following
ways:
Why it’s important:
Smoking is linked to an ac-
cumulation of plaque in your
carotid arteries, which supply
blood to your brain. Block-
age in these arteries, including
plaque, is the leading cause of
stroke.
Carbon monoxide from
smoking lowers the amount
of oxygen that your blood can
carry to your brain and makes
your blood more likely to clot.
Blood clots in an artery that
Safety a major
factor in the
supplies blood to your brain
can trigger a stroke.
Nicotine in the tobacco
raises your blood pressure.
High blood pressure can lead
to stroke.
If you smoke, talk to your
doctor about medications and
programs that can help you
stop.
Step 2. Trim down.
Being overweight is asso-
ciated with many factors that
raise your risk for a stroke.
Why it’s important:
You’re more likely to have
high cholesterol, which is an
ingredient in plaque that can
block your arteries. Blocked
arteries are a risk factor for
stroke.
You’re more likely to de-
velop type 2 diabetes. The el-
evated levels of blood glucose,
high cholesterol and increased
blood pressure associated with
diabetes can cause a stroke.
You’re more likely to have
high blood pressure. High
blood pressure can lead to
stroke.
Doctors typically deter-
mine whether patients are too
heavy by their body mass in-
dex (BMI), which uses a for-
mula combining your height
and weight. Ideally, your BMI
should be less than 25. Calcu-
late your BMI online by visit-
ing the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention at:
www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/
bmi/index.htm.
Step 3. Get moving.
If you don’t do much physi-
cal activity, you can develop
high blood pressure, high
cholesterol and diabetes, all of
which increases your chance
for a stroke.
Why it’s important:
If you’re at a healthy
weight, it’s still important to
exercise regularly.
If you’re overweight, exer-
cising regularly will help you
shed the extra pounds.
Exercising regularly means
at least 30 minutes of physical
activity on most days. If you
can’t do it all at once, it’s OK
to break up your activity into
smaller chunks.
Step 4. Prevent or control
diabetes.
Diabetes can damage the
blood vessels in your brain and
elsewhere in your body. Be-
sides being at a very high risk
for a stroke, most people with
diabetes die of some form of
cardiovascular disease.
Why it’s important:
If you have diabetes, main-
taining your blood sugar levels
through weight loss, physical
activity and possibly by taking
medications can help reduce
your risk of stroke.
If you don’t have diabetes,
regular physical activity and
keeping a healthy weight will
help you avoid it. By getting a
preventive health screening for
diabetes, you can find out what
your risks are for the disease.
Step 5. Eat a healthy diet.
Loading up your plate with
fruits, vegetables and grains
and cutting down on foods
high in sodium, cholesterol
and saturated fat, is also an im-
portant component in a stroke-
preventing lifestyle. As a rule,
avoid fatty meats, full-fat dairy
and baked snack foods con-
taining partially hydrogenated
oils. Keep your sodium con-
sumption below 2,400 milli-
grams (or 1 teaspoon) per day.
This daily amount includes all
salt and sodium in your foods,
not just salt you add.
Why it’s important:
Following this type of diet
will help you maintain a health-
ier blood pressure and lower
cholesterol, which is necessary
for stroke prevention.
Life Line Screening, the
nation’s leading provider of
preventive health screenings,
encourages you to take a
closer look at exactly how
making these changes can help
you prevent a stroke and live a
healthier lifestyle for overall
wellness.
moderate alcohol use can be good for you
You may have heard
that moderate drinking can
fit into a sensible health
plan. It may be beneficial
in reducing or preventing
certain conditions, such as
diabetes, stress, depression,
poor cognition, and heart
ailments such as hyper-
tension, peripheral artery
disease, and high blood
pressure. Drinking may
also help prevent aging ef-
fects. Part of the reason is
due to alcohol, offers Dr.
Mehmet Oz, and most of
the reason is the resveratrol
that’s found in grape
skins, and thus red wines.
Some also surmise that
moderate alcohol can fend
off the common cold. How-
ever, too much alcohol can
put you at risk for adverse
health consequences.
Moderate drinking is de-
A retirement home that helps pay for itself
With today’s record low
real estate prices and attrac-
tive mortgage rates, now
may be a good time to think
about investing in a second
home that ultimately can be
used as your permanent res-
idence upon retirement. By
taking a “buy-and-rent” ap-
proach before you’re ready
to retire, your new home
will actually have partly paid
for itself by the time you’re
ready to move into it.
“Buying and renting out
a second home as a vacation
rental property until you’re
ready to move in upon re-
tirement can significantly
help offset the cost of own-
ership,” says Brian Shar-
ples, CEO of HomeAway,
the world’s leading online
vacation rental marketplace.
“The income stream, in ad-
dition to tax write-offs for
maintenance and repairs,
make this an attractive strat-
egy for many people nearing
retirement.”

In general, chains offer
senior discounts, includ-

niors to shop, to anyone
over the age of 55. Res-
taurants are also known
to offer senior discounts,
and often these discounts
extend beyond “early

yesteryear. While early

many chain restaurants
offer discounted prices
to seniors regardless of
time of day. In many cas-
es, these discounts aren’t
listed on the menu, but

cally saves, to ask.
* Arts and culture. Se-
niors looking to spend a
