University Hospitals St. John Medical Center Celebrates Volunteers

Volunteers are priceless to the mission of University Hospitals St. John Medical Cen-ter. They are the face of the organization, greeting hundreds of patients and visitors daily.

Volunteers at University Hospitals St. John Medical Center donate an incredible 50,000 hours of service each year! They were honored at a festive luncheon hosted at Avon Oaks Country Club on April 13. Robert G. David, President, UH St. John Medical Center, was joined by Dr. Robert Stern, President, Medical Staff, and Penny Evans, Volunteer Manager, in recognizing notable achievements in volunteerism.

The President’s Call to Service Award was bestowed on Teddi Gedeon, Caroline Gra-hovac and Rosemarie Slaght for achieving the milestone of 4,000 hours of volunteer service in a lifetime.

You can all pat yourselves on the back as we’ve made it through another winter. Spring is finally here, so enjoy while the trees and flowers start to bud.

During these challenging economic times, things have certainly changed for all of us. People are going through life changes that they might not have experienced in years, but especially if someone has lost their job. It’s interest-ing that many people who have never cared about the way their smile looked before because they may have been in the same job for many years now require a little bit of a makeover now that they are back in the job hunt.

Teeth whitening is an easy way to brighten your smile and is very cost effective. For many people, we are not finding it is an elective procedure any more, but it is neces-sary in order to build their own self-confidence and pres-ent themselves authoritatively to others. You and I both know many successful people who are known for having

that winning smile. Fixing those chipped and cracked front teeth are also

part of that winning smile. Many times these broken teeth can be fixed with conservative tooth colored restorative ma-terials that are bonded to the tooth for strength and beauty. There are many simple fixes that can be done to give you the appearance of nice, white, straight teeth. An upgraded smile definitely can give you a boost of self-esteem.

Call us today at 440-892-1810 for any of your dental needs, whether it is a second opinion or a free consultation. We are here to help you smile.

leadership of both agencies have determined that we will not relocate the Bay Village branch of the Library to the Huntington campus.”

With new library projects recently announced in Mid-dleburg Heights and Berea, Bay Village remains the only branch community in the Cuyahoga County Public Library system without a major capital improvement since the early 2000’s.

“The CCPL Board of Trustees has funding set aside to complete a project in Bay Village; however, the Library’s ability to enter into such a project is contingent upon find-ing a suitable location. While the Library will continue to explore opportunities in Bay Village, at this point in time we do not have any active prospects to report,” says the Li-brary.

The announcement came a day after a meeting of the Cleveland Metroparks Board that received comments from

guests in opposition to the library’s move to Huntington.A Bay resident who offered comments to the board

reports that she was heard in earnest at the meeting. “I at-tended the Metropark Board meeting this morning,” said Mary Jo Mazzolini on her facebook site. “They were open to the idea that a park is no place for a Library, or at least Board member Dan Moore agreed with me.”

Mazzolini even started a petition opposing a building in Huntington, and urged community members to contact Park, Library and City officials to stop the plans. Her pe-tition was one of two that appeared on the facebook site, Secret Bay Village, where forum opposition to the library relocation appeared to greatly outweigh support.

“I heard that after I and another Bay resident spoke, that later the board went into a private executive session and soon after the decision was likely made! I cited (an-other) poll, my petition, and that if they gave this land away I would get residents involved in defeating the next Metropark levy! I think all of that scared them and many others did emails, letters, and phone calls. What a great vic-tory! Thanks to all who pitched in!” writes Mazzolini.

In sharing its email message to cardholders with The Villager, CCPL Director of External Communications Hallie Rich said, “We will not move forward with the relo-cation project in Huntington Reservation. CCPL will con-tinue to search for opportunities for a branch replacement project in Bay, but we do not have any active prospects at this time.”

When was the last time you were excited to re-ceive socks? Westlake Girl Scout Troop 70421 asked that same question last month and came up with a great idea that combined fun with fundraising. They held a good, old-fashioned Sock Hop at Dover Intermediate School on March 18, collecting over 220 pairs of new socks to support #SocksPLUS, a mission spearheaded by Community West Founda-tion to help the homeless. As leaders of tomorrow, these Girls Scouts bring a tradition of caring and compassion with them into the future. The troop received a recognition award along with a certificate, badge and pin at ceremonies held at the Parkside Administration Building last week. The girls spent hours planning, organizing, pro-

to advance the health and well being of our community.

SocksPLUS: How Troop 70421 Earned Their Bronze Awardmoting and decorating for the Sock Hop. They even hired a DJ, rented space and learned how to budget wisely as they created flyers, posters and presenta-tions they shared with their schools. Admission was just $5 and, of course, a pair of socks! They presented their donation to Community West Foundation and a representative from the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless at last week’s ceremonies to complete their goal. The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest award a Junior Girl Scout (grades 4-5) can earn. It re-quires her to learn the leadership and planning skills necessary to follow through on a project that makes a positive impact on her community. For thousands of Cleveland’s homeless, socks are a gift never taken for granted. In fact, they are the

item most requested by anyone liv-ing outside. You can join in the cam-paign to assist Cleveland home-less through the ongoing efforts of Community West Foundation. Just visit #SocksPLUS! Congratulations to Girl Scout Troop 70421 on earning their Bronze Award!

Awards - the highest awards possible for their age groups at the April 21 ceremony. Others earned 10-year awards and a Gold Award was earned by Reagan Hardy of Westlake.

The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award a girl can earn in Girl Scouting. By earning the Girl Scout Gold Award, Reagan joined the ranks of generations of young woman who have made a difference locally and globally. The culmination of the Girl Scout Gold Award is a project which exemplifies courgae, confidence and character.

Reagan’s project was ‘Athletes: Go Green or Go Home’ where she asked Westlake Rec basketball participants to pledge the use of a reusable water bottle or to recycle during their sports seasons. The premise is that as an athlete, Reagan, a lacrosse player, knows how much water athletes drink. By asking other athletes to also make a change during their season to a reusable water bottle or commit to recycling, it would encourage green-friendly habits that will permeate through lives, families and communities. Reagan decided to pur-sue the project after seeing fields of empty drink bottles thrown by trash cans at sporting events in Westlake. Reagan is a junior at Magnificat High school and has been a Girl Scout since kindergarten.

Ten Year Award: Honoring girls that have been registered for 10 years as a Girl Scout, Ten Year Awards went to Carolyn Bedell, Alexis Sauer and Holly Tomkalski of Senior Troop 71047 and Elizabeth Templeton of Cadette Troop 70300.

Silver Award: The Girl Scout Silver Award is the highest award for Girl Scout Ca-dettes (grades 6-8) and the second-highest award in girl scouting. Going for th Girl Scout Silver Award shows that you are a leader who is organized, determined and dedicated to improving your community. The Silver Award went to Madeline Boyer, Abigail Dumm, Samantha Chang, Rebecca Monahan, Olivia Clarke, Christie Murphy and Maya Daw of Cadette Troop 71345, Sophia Bell, Jessica Bernath, Sydney Schons and Madeline Stanco of Cadette Troop 77140, and Katherine Guercio, Gayle Petrick and Emily Templeton of Cadette Troop 70300.

Bronze Award: The Girl Scout Bronze Award, the highest award a Junior Girl Scout (grades 4-5) can earn, requires her to learn leadership and planning skills necessary to follow through on a project that makes a positive impact on her community. The Bronze Award went to Rachel Bangham, Avery Junkins, Jillian Burns, Anika Norris, Alyssa Car-man, Emma Pollak, Alyssa Cowin, Gabriele Pollak, Samantha Corrigan, Carly Reiss, Alex-andra DeSapri, Samantha Wohleber and Shannon Gannon of Junior Troop 70255 and the girls of Junior Troop 70421 (see story on page 6).

Firearm Law

Law You Can use

Joseph T. Burke is an experienced lawyer in the Cleveland area. He practices in personal injury, OVI/DUI defense, civil litigation, and more

presented by:Visit TheVillagerNewspaper.com for this entire Law You Can Use column.

Q: Must I register my firearms in Ohio?

A: Generally, no. The Ohio Revised Code  does  not  require  firearm  registration,  and prohibits municipalities  from creating compulsory  local firearm registries.   Federal  law does require that a person register a “dangerous ordinance,” which is defined by law, and includes machine guns, short-barreled shotguns, and suppressors.

Q: Is “open carry” legal in Ohio?

A: Yes. However, a person may not openly carry a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle without a  concealed handgun  license  (“CHL”).  “Open carry”  is  also prohibited a number of places, including government buildings, schools, and churches.

Westlake Man Terrifies Children with Break-In Hoax

Westlake Police report that a 46 year old Pineview Drive father put his 14 and 16 year old sons to the test on April 14 at 4:05 p.m. by stag-ing a break in at their home to see if his children would obey his demands to not let strangers in the house.

At the dad’s instigation, say Po-lice, a 45 year old friend from Cleve-land Hts. went to the front door and asked to be let in. The motive was to see if the boys followed a stand-ing paternal order not to admit anyone except known relatives.

The younger son did let the friend in, who then acted the part of a recently released ex-con who was owed money by the father and made physical threats.

The scenario frightened the boys, who barricad-ed themselves in a bedroom, jumped out a second floor window onto the garage roof and then landed on the ground (precariously close to a sidewalk). The elder son suffered a minor scrape while exiting the home and then called 911 from a neighbor’s house.

Officers responded code 3 to the home, only to find that it was all a charade.

The friend, in contact with Dad by phone all the while, wanted to stop the role play as things had gone too far. Dad insisted that it play out, say Police. He also refused to acknowledge the emotional upset he had caused, instead referring to his son’s actions as an “epic fail”.

Both boys were commended by the responding officers for securing themselves from the threat and making good their escape. The City Prosecutor will consider Child Endangering charges against both adults.

Life in the Fast LaneI-90 was the place to be for impaired driving on

April 11. That morning, a 21 year old Bay Village man went off the road eastbound and mowed down an ODOT sign near Crocker Rd. He had some reefer and pot paraphernalia with him. He tested .170 by breath; final score OVI, BAC, POM, Drug Para.

In the evening, a 29 year-old Westlake woman hit another car (with 3 occupants) while westbound near Cahoon Rd. A 52-year old Avon woman passenger from the other car suffered at least a concussion and was transported to St. John Medical Center by WFD. The other passenger and driver were not hurt. The impaired driver was arrested for OVI, BAC (.173 by breath), Agg. Vehicular Assault, Speed, and Improper Lane Usage.

Dept. of Swindlers & ThievesThe owner of a Center Ridge Rd. business was

swindled out of $3000 by a caller who demanded that sum in gift cards or the electric service would be shut off. After transmitting the money, the victim had doubts and found out that the caller was a phony. The loss occurred on April 11.

A Northwood Ln. woman replied to a phony Pay-Pal email, leading to a number of charges being made on the associated credit card account. No amounts were specified; she reported the ID theft on April 13.

A Lincoln Rd. man received letters advising him that his credit card application hand been denied and that his $25,000 loan application had been received; he had sought neither. The ID theft was reported on April 13 and may be related to a data breach at RITA.

A Columbia Rd. man’s credit card was cloned and used to charge $581 worth of items at a North Olmsted store on March 7. He discovered the theft the next day and reported it.

A Northglen Dr. man found that his credit card was cloned and used in Ottawa Co. to make a $187 purchase. Two other attempts were declined at un-known locations; all took place on or about March 4. He reported the incidents on March 8.

Student Seriously Injured A fight at Westlake High School on the afternoon

of 4-12-16 between a 17 year old junior and an 18 year old sophomore resulted in the younger student’s being hospitalized with very serious head injuries, re-port Westlake Police.

The fight took place in a men’s washroom around 12:54PM. The younger student was found by staff and the WPD School Resource Officer and appeared lethargic; he was initially seen by the school nurse.

He was subsequently transported by family to Fairview Gen. and later airlifted to Metro Health.

The suspect, Deandrew SMITH of Westlake, turned himself in on 4-13-16 on a charge of Feloni-ous Assault. His bond was set at $5000 and a no-contact order was issued. He posted bond that date and wasreleased; his next hearing is 4-19-16 in the Rocky River Municipal Court.

The case will be submitted to the Grand Jury for review.

Bad BehaviorA 35 year old Arizona man staying with his mom

on Cedarwood Dr. got liquored up and threw patio furniture and other items off her balcony on March 8. He was arrested for DCI and also had warrants from Westlake and Bay Village PDs.

An intoxicated 44yoa man was sent on his way from a Detroit Rd. woman’s apartment on March 10 at 6:51PM; he went to another friend’s apartment. 90 minutes later he was back, pounding on her patio door. He was arrested for DCI.

When one truck driver asked another to move his rig at a First St. business on April 13, the second man (61yoa Westlaker) punched the first (58yoa from Eu-clid), breaking his eyeglasses and receiving a cut on his nose. The older man left, then came to the police station, where he was arrested for Assault.

An intoxicated 51yoa Westlake man’s invitation to go to a bar was not well received by a female mo-torist as she pulled into her Detroit Rd. parking lot on

April 14. When confronted by officers, he threw his pot pipe away. He was arrested for DCI, Drug Para-phernalia, and Attempted Tampering with Evidence.

‘Good Neighbor’ HoaxA ‘Good Neighbor’ hoax surfaced

in Bay Village on April 11 at 1137 hours when a Juneway resident re-ported that on April 9, a male came to his house and claimed he had just purchased the home across the street.

The visitor claimed he needed $22.00 to have his vehicle repaired. The homeowner gave the visitor $30.00 with the understanding that it would be repaid.

After not hearing from the visitor for several days, or seeing any activity at house, the homeowner decid-ed he had been scammed. He described the visitor as a W/M, 40-45 yoa, 5’10”, 175 lbs. with brown hair (receding hair line) and a beard. He was wearing dark rimmed glasses and driving a 2005-2007 Oldsmobile Alero. If anyone has had a similar encounter please contact BVPD at 440-871-1234.

Looking for HelpOn 04/12/2016, at 0052 hrs, a resident in the

26000 block of Lake Rd. called BVPD to report she believed someone had knocked on her door, and the person now walking down the street. Responding of-ficer located an illegally parked car on Parkside, and shortly thereafter were flagged down by a female walking down Lake Forest. The female indicated that her car had broken down, and she was knock-ing on doors looking for help. The officers suspected the female was intoxicated. Field sobriety tests were administered, and as a result the female was arrest-ed for Disorderly Conduct-Intoxicated. She will face charges at RRMC.

Mystery BellA huge sigh of relief was heard throughout Bay

Village after the Cahoon Family Bell at Rose Hill Mu-seum was thought to be lost last weekend, but ended up accounted for. “The Cahoon bell has been found,” says the Bay Village Historical Society after the bell was noticed to be missing from its post on Sunday. “The fine gentlemen at the Service Department re-moved it to replace the post, which was beginning to

Sound Therapy! Good Vibrations at The Normandy Care Center The Normandy Care Center on the Norman-dy Senior Living Campus in Rocky River knows how to keep residents tuned up! Activities Director Tammy Danilovic, ADC, CDP, APP, C.HT, and associate Joy Parrish are ex-perts in Sound Therapy. They have incorporated sound and vibration therapy components into the daily activities at the Care Center. By using tuning forks, vibrations and the

sounds of soothing harmonics, residents benefit from non-intrusive vibrations that interact with their senses to release the natu-ral healing elements that exist within each person. “The techniques interact with the ner-vous system to benefit residents in many areas of their health, from cardiovascular, to pain management, blood pressure and in-flammation,” says Danilovic.

With residents gathered in a circle, Tammy and Joy share the soothing effects of natural tones and harmonics. You can see the residents relax, spark to atten-tion or interact with body lan-guage as the chords synchronize mind, heart and body rhythms individually. “The body can be tuned for optimal physical balance, just as the piano is adjusted to perfect pitch,” says Tammy. “These are non-intrusive techniques that are recognized now by the American Medical Association,” adds Joy. Both Joy and Tammy have received exten-sive training in these techniques. Ideally, everyone wants their body to be in perfect health. Sound therapy can help each person within the needs of their individual make-up to become more like an orchestra playing beautiful music. As sound flows through the body from a tuning fork, Tuning Bar or Singing Bowl, cells quietly pulsate in accord with natural rhythm to achieve a higher state of harmony. Tammy and Joy have an array of differently tuned forks that address the needs of each resident. “We have been using sound therapy for a good 15 years,” says Tammy. “I became personally interested in it because of the benefits in health and well being it can bring to our residents. It is non-invasive, and it can lead to a happier, healthier life.”

Knife ThreatsPolice responded to the Swinging

Door Lounge after receiving a 911 call of a male in the parking lot threatening patrons with a knife on April 13.. The first arriving officer located the subject in an alley and called out to him. The male responded and reached into his coat and pulled out a knife that was still folded shut. He was ordered to the ground, initially refusing, but complied after the officer drew his Taser. He was detained while officers spoke with employees and patrons. It was found that he was cut off from any alcohol due to “odd” behavior and then became bel-ligerent, yelling profani-ties, shoving a female employee, and then threatening people after pulling out his knife. He was ultimately arrested for Assault, Aggravated Menacing and Disorderly

Conduct: Intoxication. He was released on bond late morning of the next day pending his appearance in Rocky River Municipal Court.

A Balmoral Way home was bur-gled by breaking a window on April 15. Cash and jewelry were stolen from a safe that was forced open.
