On Friday, November 11, 2011 our Nation will observe the men and women who have and will continue to serve our country. It will be a day to honor our Military Veterans and thank them for their dedication to our country and their service.

An observation of such has been acknowledged since November 11, 1919. Then U.S. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11, 1919 as the first commemoration of “Armistice Day” known today as Veterans Day. The day’s observations included parades, public gather-ing and a brief pause at 11:00 am with a moment of silence to honor those who served. It was on this date one year prior, a truce was made between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War. No-vember 11, 1918 was the date that marked the end of the “Great War” even though the Treaty of Versailles was signed several months later.

In 1954 President Dwight Eisenhower changed the name from Ar-mistice Day to Veterans Day to honor all US Veterans not just those of WWI (1917-1918) and WWII (1941-1945). In 1968, Congress de-cided Veterans Day should fall on the fourth Monday in October for consistency instead of November 11th. That law went into effect in 1971, however; this was changed in 1975 when President Gerald Ford returned Veterans Day to November 11, due to the important historical significance of the date.

Today, Veterans Day is observed as a federal holiday on November 11th. Military Veterans from all wars: WWI (1917-1918), WWII (1941-1945), Korean War (1950-1953), Vietnam War (1964-1975),

Gulf War (1990-1991) and Global War on Terrorism (2001-present) are honored and observed. On Friday, November 11, 2011 at 11:00 am pause for a brief moment to pay your respects to those who have served and those who continue to serve our country. Show your support and appreciation by honoring and thanking a Veteran.

Veterans Day Observed

Old Woman Creek National Es-tuarine Research Reserve in Hu-ron has many options for experi-encing the outdoors. The barrier beach, located along Cleveland Road, has parking for about 5 cars and is an amazing place to visit. The beach is forever chang-

ing with the prevailing winds and the powerful waves. For most of the year, Old Woman Creek emp-ties into Lake Erie, but when wa-ter levels are low, the beach sepa-rates the creek from the lake. At the visitors’ center, located farther east on Cleveland Road, there are approximately 2.5 miles of hiking trails and a viewing deck over-looking the wetland. Often, bird-ers are seen at the deck with their binoculars and cameras trying to catch a glimpse of the plentiful but majestic eagles.

My favorite means of exploring Old Woman Creek is by canoe. Anyone with a registered canoe or kayak can obtain a permit to ex-plore the wetland. Permits are is-sued at the visitors’ center during normal business hours. To gain access to the wetland, you must park at the beach lot and launch

your boat opposite the parking area. From there, it is yours to ex-plore. Your journey will first take you under the Cleveland Road Bridge. You will then paddle through expansive stands of lotus, and then pass under the railroad bridge. At this point, the creek curves to the southeast and con-tinues to wind towards Route 2. Passage beyond this point may be somewhat difficult due to downed trees. In good conditions, your journey can take you well beyond the bridge at Darrow Road.

Recently, my husband and I pad-dled our canoe over Old Woman Creek. It was a crisp day, but we were delighted by the fall colors and the many species of birds and other wildlife that we observed. Our bird list included, but was not limited to, great blue heron, great egret, bald eagle, wood duck, and

belted kingfisher. At one point, we floated the canoe under a downed tree, and we each were required to sit atop the tree as the canoe passed under. Unfortu-nately, our journey ended just be-yond the Route 2 Bridge where we encountered an impasse. On our way back through the lotus beds, we spooked a few fish, likely carp, as we paddled.

If you do not own your own canoe or kayak, the staff at Old Woman Creek periodically lead guided tours through the wetland during the summer months. The canoes are provided. Check the Old Woman Creek website for a list of events. Permits for explor-ing the estuary on your own are available until the ice forms. I highly suggest taking the time to explore this incredible natural area.

Dorcas’ Closet Founder Named Girls’ Night Out ‘Woman of the Year’

Girls’ Night Out co-founders Doug and Gretchen Studer presented roses to Cynthia Sanders, founder of Dorcas’ Closet, during the seventh annual Girls’ Night Out charity event on Wednesday, Nov. 2 at Kalahari Resort Con-vention Center. Sanders was selected as the 2011 Girls’ Night Out Woman of the Year.

The local benefit was attended by 1,200 women and raised money for Cancer Ser-vices, the Fisher-Titus Mammography Fund, the Firelands Regional Medical Center Cancer Program Fund and North Coast Cancer Foun-dation.

“Each year, the committee selects a wom-an who possesses all the qualities that make someone a Girls’ Night Out ‘Woman of the Year’,” said Doug Studer, co-founder of Girls’ Night Out. “All past recipients have been shin-ing examples of exceptional women who have made an impact on the lives of cancer patients and survivors. Cynthia is a great example of someone who possesses these qualities. She has been a great example of someone who continues to shine even during adversity.”

Sanders, who was born with a rare form of cancer, has gone through adversity most of her adult life. Diagnosed with an incurable cancer, she was told many times that she would only survive for a few years to a few months.

“Her faith in God has sustained her and kept her going,” said Peg Miller, director of Cancer Services. “Even her doctors call her a walking miracle. She looks at this as an opportunity to do God’s work, by taking ‘one day at a time’.”

“Cynthia does not know the meaning of ‘no’ or ‘stop’. Even most days she does not feel her

very best, but this does not curtail her enthu-siasm for life or doing for others. Her mission is to do for those who cannot not do for them-selves.”

Sanders resides in Sandusky with her hus-band, American Sanders, Jr.

At one time she worked as a bookkeeper, but because of her health she had to stop work-ing. So, Sanders began a ministry in the com-munity to lend a helping hand. She has been doing this mission work for several years now. She first started out of her church, Emmanuel Temple. Now Dorcas’ Closet is located at 156 Columbus Ave., Sandusky. As part of this retail store with a mission, Sanders has designated the upstairs portion of the building as a food and clothing giveaway.

“Even though she has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, her legacy to help clothe and feed have exceeded her limits to serve others,” Miller said.

Each year, the commit-tee selects a woman who possesses all the qualities that make someone a Girls’ Night Out “Woman of the Year.” All past recipients have been shining examples of exceptional women who have made an impact on the lives of cancer patients and survivors.

Past winners include Sheri Thomas (2005), owner of Sheri’s Coffeehouse in Nor-walk and breast cancer sur-vivor; Pat Scheid (2006) of Monroeville, instrumental

in creating the Fisher-Titus Mammography Fund and breast cancer survivor; Peg Miller (2007), Director of Cancer Services and an advocate for local cancer patients; Mary Biglin (2008), retired oncology nurse at Firelands Re-gional Medical Center and former member of Cancer Services board of directors, Pam Kidd (2008), of Cancer Services and breast cancer survivor; Gretchen Studer (2009), co-founder of Girls’ Night Out and co-owner of Curves in Sandusky and Joan Van Offeren (2010), ex-ecutive director of the Erie County Visitors & Convention Bureau.

Gretchen and her husband, Doug Studer, founded the Girls’ Night Out event in 2005 as a way to give back to the community and to support local cancer programs. More than $175,000 has been raised in six years and dis-tributed locally through the Girls’ Night Out event. Totals for this year’s event have not been finalized yet.

The Firelands Symphony Orchestra welcomes the Reed-Works Sax Quartet to the Sandusky State The-atre for an ensemble-only concert at 7 p.m. Nov. 13. Since 1988, this impres-sive ensemble of tenor, alto, baritone and soprano saxo-phones has entertained au-diences with musical finesse and sensitivity, covering a wide range of music styles. Equally at home with music from the Baroque to pres-ent day, this group performs great transcriptions of the “classics” and many new arrangements and original compositions. The audience may hear anything from the Muppet Show theme, to “Flight of the Bumble Bee,” to the Glenn Miller big band classic “In the Mood.” The quartet changes up its harmonic combinations with clarinets and flutes. Tickets available at the San-dusky State Theatre Box Of-fice at 419-626-1950 or toll free at 1-877-626-1950 and Sanduskystate.com or www.firelandssymphony.com.

The Huron PTO raised $11,495 this past month during their first ever Fall Raffle for Shawnee Elementary School and Wood-lands Intermediate School. The students were asked to sell the raffle tickets for $5.00 a piece for a chance to win numerous prizes and gift certificates from local busi-nesses. The grand prize items included: an I-pad, $500 cash and $400 cash.

The fundraiser took place between Octo-ber 12th and 26th. At the November 2nd PTO meeting, Superintendent Fred Fox was present to assist with the drawing of the Grand Prize winning tickets.

The money raised during the Fall Raffle will go directly back into the classrooms. At the October 5th meeting of the PTO, teachers were invited to attend and sub-mit their “wish lists” of items that would enhance the classrooms. Many of the teachers were present and made the fol-lowing suggestions: rugs for the students to sit on, books for the classrooms, music

books, wireless keyboards and scanners for the Smart Boards, digital cameras, drying racks and paint for the art rooms, I-pads for the grades to share, organizational bins, COSI on wheels, Listening Center, gift cards from Pat Catans, I-tunes for I-pad apps and heavy duty pencil sharpeners.

“On behalf of the Huron PTO, I would like to thank every student, parent and members of the community who support-ed our fundraiser this year. Without you, we would not have been able to give back to the teachers. Your generosity means so much,” stated Marcy Cappo, Huron PTO President.

Grand Prize winners for Shawnee in-clude: I-pad, Eleanor Cherry; $500, Sherry Ransome; $400, Chuck Hedberg.

Grand Prize winners for Woodlands in-clude: I-pad, Tammy Rank; $500, Sarah Kerro; $400, Lisa Mize. Congratulations to all of the winners!

Superintendent Fred Fox draws the Grand Prize Winners from the hopper for the I-pads and cash prizes for the Huron PTO Fall Raffle. Assisting Mr. Fox are Huron students, Benjamin, Bryce and MacKenzie Nevison. Amy Nevison, PTO Secretary, records the names of the winners.

Huron High School alumnus, Nick Shamhart, recently released his first novel, “Grey”. Shamhart, who now lives in the Cleveland area, made the decision to release his book in elec-tronic format only. This decision was made due to a variety of factors including overall cost savings, book pricing, and autonomy. Shamhart described his novel as “a paranormal urban fantasy with horror overtones dealing with the unseen world of balancing powers.” For Shamhart, this novel could only be written as a result of gaining life experiences and insight. In describing his previous ef-forts at writing, Shamhart explained that “I was young and not seasoned enough by life to give a novel the proper effort a quality story requires.” Shamhart, who is a husband and the father of two young children, has learned much about life and finds

inspiration from a variety of sources. On a more eternal note, Shamhart is deeply interested in his children’s fu-ture. “I have a desire, like any parent, to want to leave something behind for his children. An insurance policy just doesn’t hold the same measure of comfort that my writing does. I know if something untimely were to hap-pen to me, my children could, at some point, read my novels and know some of the man their father was. Vicarious companionship is no substitution for being there, but it is better than noth-ing.” Shamhart admitted.

Shamhart’s approach to publishing ultimately allowed him to be his own boss. According to Shamhart, since teen paranormal romance is current-ly a hot topic, many of the large pub-lishing houses are looking to ride this wave and often demand authors alter their story to conform to what is pop-ular. Shamhart refused to compro-

mise, so he chose to self-publish. Yet, the road of self-publishing is not an easy one. Shamhart hired a distributing company to for-mat his book into an e-book, and he purchased his own ISBN num-ber and copy-right. Editing help came from Huron residents, Paul Hasenmeier and Becky Koe-nig, but Sham-hart was forced to do his own mar-keting and public

relations. He even created his own artwork for the cover of “Grey”. Much of Shamhart’s marketing efforts have been achieved through social media, and he refuses to be an “eccentric and unapproachable artist.”

Shamhart is currently working on the second book, “Raven”, in his eight-book series. “Raven” should be released in the spring or summer of 2012. Shamhart, who has a severely autistic child, is also working on a general fiction novel dealing with how the world treats special needs individuals. According to Shamhart, “This novel is both cathartic and emotionally draining for me to write.” Unless a publisher makes an amazing offer, Shamhart plans to publish all subsequent books in e-book format. More information on Nick Shamhart and his novels can be found at www.nickshamhart.com.

The holiday season is coming soon and many of us will be preparing a big variety of foods. EHOVE Cu-linary Arts student Emily Johnston (Edison H.S.) gave a presentation on safe food preparation to the Faces of

Hope group in Norwalk. EHOVE Executive Director Kitty Smith said the group enjoyed Johnston’s infor-mation and suggestions. “They were very positive and asked many, many questions related to food prepara-

tion and storage. She did such a good job! They have invited her back to be a guest judge for their cheesecake bakeoff.”

Firelands Montessori Visit Barnes Firelands Montessori Academy Extended Day (Kinder-garten) students visited Barnes Nursery com-post facility on Friday, October 28th. Sharon Barnes was kind enough to teach the students all about composting during their visit.

Safe Food Prep Help

A large number of American companies do business with international companies on one level or another, and they’re look-ing for employees who can think locally and globally. EHOVE Career Center will offer a new training program in the high school next year that will provide students with a solid foundation in the world of global business.

EHOVE’s new Global Business Manage-ment program is designed for students to study business principles with a global cul-tural mindset, explore real world business management issues, and develop organiza-

tion and communication skills. Students interested in business, becoming entrepre-neurs, or a career as analysts or managers of human resources, finance, marketing, projects or purchasing, will find the pro-gram is a good fit.

To help prepare students for college and give them a jumpstart on a business man-agement degree, Global Business Manage-ment students will have the opportunity to earn free college credit from BGSU Fire-lands while enrolled at EHOVE.

EHOVE Executive Director Kitty Smith is managing the initial stages of the training

program. Recognizing the shift to a more global environment in business, Smith said that the program also will include a proj-ect/problem-based focus with an interna-tional capstone field student.

“Many businesses are expanding their operations to meet the developing global marketplace, so there is an increasing need for employees who understand the proce-dural and cultural aspects of international business,” said Smith. “Students in the program will have the opportunity to in-teract with area professionals who work in this expanding business environment.”

Global Business Management is cur-rently designed for high school seniors only. The first group of students accepted into the program will attend in the 2012-2013 school year. Students of any age that are interested in enrolling in this program when they become seniors are encouraged to contact EHOVE now with questions or to request more information. Contact EHOVE at 419-499-4663 or ask questions on our Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/EHOVEworks.

Kyle Nutter and the Genoa Comets’ running attack ground down the Tiger defense in the opening round of the State playoffs at Comet Stadium. Genoa absolutely controlled the time of possession 40:23 to Huron’s 7:37. During those forty minutes Kyle Nutter ran for 413 yards and four touchdowns. The Tigers lone bright spot

was WR Cody Thompson who caught five passes for 123 yards including a spectacular jump ball grab for a 77 yard touchdown in the first half. Huron’s varsity foot-ball finished the season with an outstanding 9-2 mark and a second place finish in the SBC.

All residents must use the appropriate yard waste re-ceptacles for leaf disposal; 20 to 35 gallon trash can re-ceptacles clearly marked as “YARD WASTE” contain-ers. In place of receptacles, biodegradable yard waste bags may be substituted which can be purchased at most retail outlets. There is no maximum amount of leaf refuse; however, no re-ceptacle can weigh over 50 pounds.

The city’s refuse hauler, F.S.I., will pick up all pack-aged leaves as part of the normal weekly collection cycle beginning the first Monday in October with

the service to continue through the last Monday in December.

Residents are reminded that leaves are not to be raked into the roadway. This is a violation of the City Ordinances, Section 521.10, which reads “No person shall sweep, shovel or pile or cause to be swept, shoveled or piled, any snow, ice, leaves, branches, twigs, brush, grass or other waste upon any of the streets, av-enues, alleys, sidewalks or other public ways of the City. Whoever violates this section is guilty of a minor misdemeanor.”

The Berardi’s Restaurants certainly have a long local history. Starting in the food busi-ness in 1942, they quickly became well known for their homemade French fries. From 1942 until 1978, Berardi’s French fries were a highlight for Cedar Point visitors.

It was all started by Roseanne and Albert Berardi and many people should re-member their original Huron location; Frost Top Drive. All of us have now come to love it as Berardi’s Family Restaurant. They have been operating here since 1979 and it is currently owned and operated by Sue Berardi Fawcett and her brother Al Berardi.

The restaurant that started as a dairy bar has become a great place for Huroni-tes to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. They have enjoyed success by continually striving to improve. In keeping with that philosophy, this Spring, Berardi’s will be remodeling the inside to become a classy bistro, however, their menu and staff will remain the same. They want to create a newer, comfortable atmosphere for families, couples, tourists and business people whether they are having a glass of wine with dinner or coming in for a fresh morning omelet. Everything on the menu is made fresh each day and this year they are focusing on local growers. This includes Hahn’s peaches with butter nut squash and eggplant coming from other local farmers. Amazingly, they go through 2500 lbs of potatoes every week to make their signature fries, mashed potatoes, and home fries.

Berardi’s has a full scale of beer and wine and they are also known for their seafood bisque, cream cheese pecan pie, fresh Lake Erie Yellow Perch, Philly steak and fries, and their new baked doughnuts. They will be happy to be your caterer for the many upcoming holiday events. They will also deliver items for the regular menu for free (minimum must be meant.)

Specials are posted on the on their new website daily www.berardisrestauran-thuron.com. Congratulations Berardi’s on becoming Huron’s Taste of the Week.
