By Christine A.
Holliday
Herald Writer
Nearly a decade ago,
plenty of fans came to
see Jeremy Bigelow play
as a right winger on the
Northview High School
hockey team and as a wide
receiver on the schools
football team. His friends
and family members, who
call themselves Team
Bigelow, are hoping some
of those fans will come to
play golf for Jeremy, in
a tournament being held
to provide funds for his
future care. Jeremy was
injured in a car accident
eight months ago, and
is currently receiving
treatment for injuries that
have made him a C3/C4
quadiplegic (paralyzed
from the shoulders down).
He has made a great deal
of progress in a variety
of medical centers and
hospitals, but faces
expensive continuing
care, and his friends are
hoping to help with those
costs.
The Inaugural Biggie
Classic will be held June 25
at the Legacy Golf Course
in Ottawa Lake, MI.
Jeremys lifelong friend
Chris Garris and several
other friends and family
members are working
with the ThreeSixtyFive
Foundation to plan the
event, which begins with
registration at 12:30 p.m.
and a shotgun start at
1:30 p.m. He provides
the following information
for those who would
like to participateby
playing, sponsoring, and/
or providing fnancial
assistance.
The format of the event
is a Scrambles event for
4-man teams. The cost
for a foursome is $300;
individuals can play for
$75. The cost includes a
golf cart, greens fees, a
meal ticket and a drink
ticket for the course. The
dinner is a buffet style
home-cooked Italian
dinner that will begin at
5:00 p.m. Garris notes that
non-golfers are invited to
attend the dinner only, at
a cost of $20, and invites
those who choose not to
golf to consider making
a donation in support of
the event. (Those who
wish to donate may make
checks payable to Team
Bigelow. Those who are
making a tax deductible
business donation should
make checks payable
to ThreeSixtyFive
Foundation, Attn: Team
Bigelow. All proceeds go
to the Jeremy Bigelow
Fund for Jeremy).
There are several
opportunities for
sponsorship at this event,
Garris explains. We are
offering Bronze, Silver,
Gold, and Platinum
Sponsorships with
different benefts. A
Bronze sponsor ($100) will
receive a shared 9 x 12
sign and a goodie bag,
as well as the company
name and business
information attached to
treats handed out to all
golfers. A Silver sponsor
($250) will receive a 9
x 12 sign on the course
and the company name on
the gifts given to golfers.
The Gold sponsors ($500)
receive a 12 x 24 sign, a
golf item (such as a glove
or towel given to the other
golfers) with their logo on
it, as well as a personalized
commemorative plaque.
Those who purchase a
Platinum sponsorship
($800 and up) receive
a Foursome package,
an 18 x 24 sign, golf
items with the company
logo, and a personalized
commemorative plaque.
Chris Garris hopes
that Jeremy Bigelows
condition permits him to
be present at the Biggie
classic, saying, He is
looking forward to being
there, and he is excited
to see old friends. Hes
already made great
progress and continues
to touch others with his
positive attitude and his
strong faith. We hope to
have a large turnout for
this event to help him.

Property Revaluation Underway
By Christine A. Holliday
Herald Writer
The Red Shirts are
coming! The Red Shirts
are coming! Lucas County
residents might be noticing
camera-toting, red shirt-
wearing visitors to their
neighborhoods, but they
need not fear a revolution.
The visitors are
contractors doing work for
the offce of Lucas County
Auditor Anita Lopez.
They are working on the
2010 property revaluation
being conducted by the
Auditors offce, and will
be in the feld until
photos of all residential
and commercial properties
have been taken.
Ohio law requires the
Auditor to reappraise all
real property every year
years, and to update values
every three years. The
last revaluation in Lucas
County was completed in
2006, and the last update
in 2009, so 2012 will be a
revaluation year.
A brochure offered
by the contractors notes
that the purpose of the
2012 revaluation is,
to equitably adjust and
equalize property values
to refect changes in the
marketplace since January
1, 2006. It further notes,
Since property values
do not change uniformly,
some values have
increased, some stayed the
same, while others have
decreased since 2006.
The independent
contractors have been
hired by local appraisal
companies to take photos
of all properties in Lucas
County, both residential
and commercial. They
work Monday through
Saturday, between 8:00
a.m. and 7:00 p.m., For
everyones safety, they
are not permitted to go
into any homes they visit,
and should not ask to
be admitted to anyones
home. They will not go
into the back yard if there
are dogs there, and they
have been instructed not to
go into backyards of homes
where only children but no
adults are present. They
are not qualifed to answer
any questions about the
Revaluation process, the
value of the property they
are photographing, or a
tax bill. Instead, they will

Offcial workers for the Lucas County tax revaluation
will be sporting these t-shirts.
Workers will display one of these offcial badges

the work.

Dave White Chevrolet
Steps up to the Plate for
Sylvania Area Recreation
Baseball As Part of
National Chevy Youth
Baseball Program Dave
White Chevrolet to
provide Sylvania Area
Recreation Baseball with
new equipment, monetary
donation, instructional
clinics; Additional funds via
Chevy Vehicle Giveaway
Dave White Chevrolet
is supporting the Sylvania
community through a
partnership with Sylvania
Area Recreation Baseball.
The dealership will provide
baseball equipment,
instructional clinics, a
monetary donation, and
an opportunity to raise an
additional $10,000 in funds
through a Chevy vehicle
giveaway-fundraiser. The
effort by Dave White
Chevrolet is part of the
Chevy Youth Baseball
initiative being rolled out
across the nation from
March through July 2011.
Baseball is a great
American past-time and
Chevrolet is proud to have
a longstanding history
with this tradition on a
national level. Dave White
Chevrolet is bringing
that level of commitment
for youth baseball to the
Sylvania community,
where our customers and
their families live, said Joe
Mehling, General Manager
for Dave White Chevrolet.
Our youth baseball
program in Sylvania is truly
cherished and we are happy
and excited to support the
kids in a significant way.
Dave White Chevrolet
presented the Sylvania Area
Recreation Baseball with
equipment kits complete
with equipment bags,
baseball buckets, dugout
managers, and Chevy
Youth Baseball t-shirts.
The sponsorship includes
clinics with experienced
instructors from former
MLB/MiLB players and
coaches or the Ripken
Baseball professional staff.
In addition, a one-time
monetary donation check
was presented by Dave
White Chevrolet to the
Sylvania Area Recreation
Baseball. The team also
will have an opportunity
to raise additional funds
for their use as part of a
Chevy Youth Baseball
Fundraiser. Sponsored
leagues across the country
will each receive 2,000
fundraiser entry tickets to
distribute for a suggested
donation, and the league
will keep 100 percent of
proceeds raised. At the
end of the fundraiser, there
will be five winners of a
Chevy Equinox or Chevy
Cruze vehicle of choice
(up to $30,000 in value),
and in each participating
market there will be a
secondary prize of a home
entertainment center valued
at $1,000.
Chevrolet is recognized
on the national level as
the Official Vehicle of
Major League Baseball.
Chevrolet vehicles are
made for families and
we hope the kids or their
parents will consider a
Chevrolet as an official
vehicle of their household,
said Mehling.
Chevrolet has expanded
its support of MLB to the
youth baseball players
in communities across
the country through the
Chevy Youth Baseball
program. The Chevy Youth
Baseball program began in
Atlanta in 2006. In 2010,
more than 980 Chevrolet
dealers participated in
Chevy Youth Baseball and
helped raise more than $3
million for youth baseball
programs across the USA.
Now going into its sixth
year, more than $10 million
has been contributed to
youth baseball in the
communities where
Chevrolets customers live,
work, and play. Currently,
1,423 Chevrolet dealers
are participating in this
national program.

will collect data
about any changes
to the property (new
construction, removal
of buildings, addition
of bathrooms, etc.) by
talking to the property
owner or by observation
if the owner is not
available. They will
take photos of the front
and back of the property
and leave a brochure (if
they have talked to the
owner) or a hangtag on
the door if the owner
is not at home. Both
the brochure and the
hangtag contain phone
numbers to the Auditors
office for residents who
have questions about the
process, or if they wish
to schedule an interior
inspection.
The pictures taken
will identify the location
and general condition
of the property, and
will be used as the
updated photo on the
Auditors Real Estate
Information System
(AREIS). Officials in the
Auditors office will use
the information gathered
to do the Revaluation.
They will mail value
change letters to property
owners throughout the
summer of 2012, giving
information about
current and new value as
well as property data.
The data collection
part of the Revaluation is
expected to be completed
by the end of July, 2011.
Once a property owner
receives a Value Change
Notice, he will have
several opportunities to
discuss the value with
the Auditors office
through mail, phone,
and in-person forums.
Those with questions
now are encouraged to
call the Education and
Outreach Department at
419 213-4406.

Northview HIgh School Engineering
classes uses cardboard boxes
Junior engineering students at Northview High School were assigned to design and
float a boat made of card board. The educational activity teaches students how to apply
the skills they have learned in school to a practical but fun application in the real world.
The boats were launched at Olander Lake.
Photos are provided by Nancy Crandell, Sylvania Public Schools.
Nicki Foti, Ross Wagner and Andrew Wait remain seaworthy as they paddle their
way across Olander Lake.
The far boat crew of Kyle Lammie and James Donofrio try to stay afloat as the
boat by Austin Schwierking and Chris Jablonski begin to overtake them in a race to
the other side.
Still afloat and strong oarsmen Austin Schwierking and Chris Jablonski guide
their boat across the lake at Olander Park.

As the place where business
begins in Ohio, Ohio Secretary
of State Jon Husteds office has
launched the Ohio Business
Profile to raise awareness
about Ohio companies that are
creating interesting products,
offering outstanding service,
contributing to their local
communities and employing
Ohioans in the process.
The Business Services
Division of the Ohio Secretary
of States office is where
companies incorporate and
file to do business in Ohio. In
addition to working to make
every interaction with Ohio
employers as straightforward
and hassle free as possible,
the Secretary believes that in
the current economic climate,
highlighting the good things
going on in Ohios business
environment is critical.
Ohioans will be both
surprised and proud of the
sheer diversity and offerings
of Ohio entrepreneurs and the
wide reach of these companies
across the nation and around
the world, Husted said.
The Profile will periodically
feature a handful of diverse
businesses with a common
theme on the Secretary of
States website and social media
outlets. The program kicks
of this June with five Ohio
businesses that can help
prepare for a family picnic:
JTM Food Group, Premier
Produce, Smiths Dairy
Products Company, Ballreichs
Potato Chips and Longaberger.
This regular feature is intended
to be interactive and Ohioans
are encouraged to submit
companies and themes to the
Secretary of States office for
future Profiles.
In May, Secretary Husted
also released his first monthly
report of new business filings,
another indicator of business
activity that he hopes will
add to the overall discussion
as government and business
work together to turn Ohios
economy around.
As we work to improve
Ohios overall business climate,
the demonstrated successes of
existing Ohio companies can be
one of the best marketing tools
we have to encourage others to
invest here, Husted said.

Business Profile or submit
an Ohio company for future
consideration, visit http://www.

The Week Ahead: June
19 through June 25, 2011
Aries (March 21-April 19)
This week will be filled
with a list of chores and
projects. In reality, these
are the things you have left
undone for a long time. Stay
in the moment and focus on
what needs to be done. Make
the necessary decisions and
move forward with a plan of
action.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Let go of your desire
to control situations. For
everyones sake, let go of
all the things you think you
need to fix and allow others
to find their own solution.
When you accept this as
truth, everyone receives
their own guidance and
things begin to fall into
place.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
House work and chores
will occupy your time this
week. You would also be
wise to look closer inside
yourself and do some work
there as well. Things have
been difficult lately making
you unsure of what to do.
Quiet your mind and have
faith that the guidance will
come.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Emotional ups and
downs have left you feeling
drained lately. Finally, there
might be some light at the
end of the tunnel. Surrender
the struggle and learn to go
with the flow. Peace will
come when you realize
that theres something to
be learned in the highs and
lows.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
This week is about
lessons learned and lessons
forgotten. When it comes
to relationships you should
be true to yourself and
honest with your partner.
Its important to share
your real feelings but
equally important to listen.
Otherwise, you may be
revisiting old issues.
Virgo (August
23-September 22)
You may feel like you are
missing out on something
this week. But dont fret.
Theres a lot of energy
swirling around causing you
to re-examine everything.
Its time to let go of illusions
and accept what is true about
yourself and others. Clarity
brings peace of mind.
Libra (September
23-October 22)
Its time to do clear out
the clutter in your life. Also,
its important to get rid
of those things that bring
you down or drain your
energy. Once you get rid of
the people and things that
complicate your life, youll
find positive things start to
unfold for you.
Scorpio (October
23-November 21)
This week is the time to
make amends with someone
youve judged harshly. A
jester of humility will go
a long way to mend hurt
feelings. And remember,
holding the negative energy
of judgment is actually more
destructive to you than the
person you are judging.
Sagittarius (November
22-December 21)
It seems everyone is
turning to you for help
this week. Energies are
particularly high right now
and some people around
you are in meltdown. Its
important for you to stay
grounded so others can
draw on your strength. Be
supportive but they must find
answers for themselves.
Capricorn (December
22-January 19)
Its time for you to stand
up for yourself. Some of
your friends and family
members have taken
advantage of your good
nature, and its time for that
to change. Release any fear
of retaliation. For the best
outcome, speak from your
heart without any expression
of anger.
Aquarius (January
20-February 18)
The problems of the last
few weeks have finally come
to a head. These distractions
slowed you down and threw
off your normal routine.
Remember that everything
happens for a reason.
Although it doesnt always
make sense, in all things we
should give thanks.
Pisces (February 19-March
20)
If love makes the world
go around, then your world
is spinning like a top.
This week you and your
love partner are totally
in tune with one another.
Communication is flowing
easily between you and your
love life hot and spicy. What
more could you ask for?

If you watch old episodes
of The Andy Griffith Show,
a few things probably stand
out in your mind. The
catchy whistled theme song,
of course, and the town jail
where much action took
place. Well, Sylvania had
an old jail, too. Barney
Fife didnt lock himself in
OUR jail by mistake, but it
still has a colorful past!
H. G. Randall was
interviewed in the 1940s
about Sylvanias first jail.
He said the original jail in
town was under the back
end of Howards stone
building, about two lots
down from Main Street,
on the southeast corner
of Main and Monroe. It
was a basement room, and
served as the local pokey.
Mr Randall shared: One
character in town, who
was blind and sawed wood
for a living, frequently
got drunk and was put in
the jail to sober up. He
usually sang Hard Times
in the Sylvania Jail there.
Imagine that, we had our
own Otis Campbell!
I found a few tidbits
about the old jail in the
archives of the Sylvania
Area Historical Society.
There was a cancelled
check drawn on Farmers
& Merchants Bank of
Sylvania dated October 19,
1928. The heading said
Clerks Office Corporation
of Sylvania, Lucas County,
Ohio. It stated that the
Treasurer of Sylvania
Village would pay, out of
the general fund, to E. E.
Double, the sum of five
dollars. It was for closet
seat in jail, and was signed
by Park Wagonlander,
Village Clerk. With nothing
more to go on, Im going to
assume that Mr. Double was
building a bench of some
sort for the prisoners. He
owned Sylvania Plumbing,
Heating and Tin Shop back
then.
That could be a whole
episode, if we use our
imagination. Sheriff Andy
Taylor hired the local
handyman to build the seat.
But Aunt Bea kept getting
in his way hanging the new
curtains she had made.
Little Opie kept spilling the
keg of nails, and Barney
couldnt find the keys to
the cell. Well, you get the
picture. Hopefully, such
shenanigans didnt go on in
Sylvanias jail.
There is a copy of an old
undated newspaper article
that talks about the old jail.
The heading is A Rickety
Jail Blamed for the Death
of a Young Man. It stated
that Sylvania was liable to
have trouble of its own on
account of the condition of
its lockup. Ignace S. had
brought suit against the
village corporation for ten
thousand dollars, for the
death of his son, Peter S.,
caused by being confined
in the city jail.
The petition stated that
Peter was kept in the jail
for some misdemeanor
for about two days, and
the jail was so poorly
constructed and ventilated
and not sufficiently heated,
and had become damp
and unhealthful. Peter
contracted a cold which
settled on his lungs and
caused his death. It further
stated As he had previously
been healthy and robust and
was the sole support of his
father, the old gentleman
considers himself damaged
to the extent of $10,000.
I couldnt find any record
of the lawsuit result, and I
have removed the last name
for family privacy.
Hmmm, theres no
Mayberry episode like that.
The singing Darling family
might have breezed through
town, or Helen Crump may
have tried to set a trap to
get Andy to marry her, but
they sure didnt show a
predicament like this.
Its a good thing that
Sylvania has come a long
way since then. Our old
hoosegow is long gone,
and our city is definitely no
Mayberry.

Ignite Your Light and Let It Shine
We live in a fragile
society. It seems that all
you hear is the continuous
buzz about bullies, self
esteem problems and
our fractured efforts in
attaining perfection. Young
girls and young men are
fraught with trepidation
about not measuring up.
Today that problem spills
over into young adulthood
and insignificance seems
to be a national problem.
Many young people
are suffering with poor
self image and become
depressed and discouraged
about their lives. For them,
this trauma is real and
there is no relief from their
pain. Enter Katy Perry, a
vivacious and electrifying
performer who has
addressed this issue with
her new single Fireworks.
The lyrics speak to the
insecurities that we all
face. Many of us, no matter
what our age, can relate to
feeling like a plastic bag
drifting through the wind or
a house of cards one blow
from caving in. Katys song
encourages you to look into
your soul and realize that
everyone has a spark. You
have to find that ignition
switch to light up your own
life.
Many try to fit
unsuccessfully into a group
when what they really are
is an original. They need
to own the night, shoot
across the sky and let their
colors burst. While hard to
comprehend at first, if most
would only try, they would
find that they shine much
brighter than they did as a
member of the group they
so wanted to be a part of.
So what can we do to
encourage self expression
and originality? We begin
by listening to the song with
our younger children. Then,
take the time to discuss with
them the importance of
being true to who they are.
Teach them that no one is a
waste of space and that they
are original and absolutely
cannot be replaced.
All the problems of
their young lives, while
significant at this time,
really will turn out to be
small problems. While they
might seem like a hurricane
at the moment the crisis can
be replaced with confidence
just as, according to the
song, the amazement of a
rainbow often follows a
storm. Help them to see that
optimism begins within and
a letting go of negativity
can move mountains. When
they comprehend that their
attitude about themselves
is most important, their
self esteem will soar. This
results in achieving their
hope and dreams driving
their success for life.
When they do find their
new path their heart will
glow but, more importantly,
they will realize that their
self worth is not tied to
the opinions of others but
to the respect they feel for
themselves. They will get
the message that they are
fireworks just waiting to go
boom, boom, boom even
brighter than the moon.
As they shoot across the
sky the reaction will be
amazement at what they
have accomplished.
I dont know why Katy
Perry wrote Fireworks
but I believe that perhaps
along her way to stardom
she might have struggled
with the some insecurities
growing up. Her recognition
of this conflict in others
and her encouragement to
change the way we perceive
ourselves is significant
in light of the continuous
need to be the best
syndrome.
This song should be
heard by young children so
that they realize that they
are amazing in their own
way. Some may bloom
early and some later but all
have a special talent that
is waiting to ignite like a
Firework in the Night.
The Week Ahead:
Aug. 24 through Aug. 30.
Aries
(March 21-April 19)
This is not a good moment for
making business decisions on gut
instincts, although this usually
works very well for you. Right
now, there are too many unknown
variables to be loose with your
cash, even if the information you
are analyzing sounds convincing.
Taurus
(April 20-May 20)
Expect communication to be
good this week, especially in your
relationships. Make sure you
spend some alone time with your
partner and clear the air.
Gemini
(May 21-June 21)
Right now, your physical
strength will be low. However,
your emotions will be on an all
time high leaving you feeling very
up and down.
Cancer
(June 22-July 22)
You are overwhelming the
people around you with your high
and low moods. Be careful not to
create long-term conflicts by
pushing people away from you.
Leo
(July 23-Aug. 22)
Lately you may have been
feeling like you are heading in
two directions at the same time.
So, now is the time to make a sen-
sible decision about what you
want to do with your life.
Virgo
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your emotional well-being
hinges on staying in a positive
mindset. You will be challenged
by people who question your
opinion, but stay strong in what
feels right to you.
Libra
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Family and friends are very
supportive of the changes that you
want to make in your life right
now. Spend some time clearing
your mind and feeling the life pur-
pose that only you can fulfill.
Scorpio
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Expect great things financially
this week. Watch for sales of any
kind but especially those in real
estate. Your time is good for asset
creation.
Sagittarius
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
The week may get off to an
odd start but stay focused on just
today. By the end of the week you
will wonder why you were feeling
stressed at all. Plan a quick get-
away for the weekend or recon-
nect with a friend or loved one
from out of town.
Capricorn
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Balancing your time this week
will feel like a struggle. There are
responsibilities holding you back
from the things you really want to
do. Spend some time prioritizing
your projects and then rewards
yourself.
Aquarius
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Sometimes your friends and
co-workers distract your attention
and pull you away from your proj-
ects. Your caring nature wants to
help them but its important to
find balance between your goals
and helping everyone else accom-
plish their goals.
Pisces
(Feb. 19-March 20)
This is a great week for com-
municating with others. You will
feel like everyone is listening to
you and your energy will drawn
them in even closer. Start the
week ready to go and you will
enjoy the rewards by Friday.
Imagine if every week were this
easy how much you could accom-
plish.
