The two Rs in the word Orrville might well stand for “Rail Road.” The city was originally conceived as a railroad stop, and the railroad drove

virtually every aspect of its development over the years.Even today, the most casual of visitors to the city cannot

escape the presence of the railroad, as there is almost no way to reach the heart of the downtown without having to cross at least one set of tracks.It was in about 1845 that the rural area around what is today

Orrville was struck by “railroad fever,” and the phenomenon became the impetus for many meetings to debate its pros and cons.Judge Smith Orr, founder of the town – and whose name

it bears – was the chief proponent of the railraods, pointing out they would help open up the wilderness and allow area farmers to reach broader markets than was possible with present transportation modes.Opponents of the railroads, however, did not want their

farmlands ripped apart by construction for what they felt would be a passing fad.In 1848 when new railroad companies began looking to

groups of private citizens to give them aid in crossing Ohio, Orr jumped at the chance to draw the railroad through Green and Baughman Townships in Wayne County. A deal was hammered out in which Orr was to get the residents of the two townships to raise $150,000 by buying stock at $50 per share. The City of Pittsburgh, Pa., was to raise $600,000 as its part of the deal.While Orr and partner Jesse Straughan readily raised

the $150,000, Pittsburgh was unable to fulfill its part of the agreement. Straughan was then sent to Pittsburgh to represent the entire State of Ohio’s railroad interests.A new plan was constructed under which the city councils

of Pittsburgh and Allegheny were to subscribe $200,000, with citizens expected to come up with the remaining $400,000. That goal was reached by 1850.To ensure that Green and Baughman Townships would not

be bypassed by the railroad, Orr promised the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad that he would construct a water tank, a sawmill, and furnish free wood for fuel and ties for track. This served as adequate encouragement for the railroad to build through Orr’s area.Orrville probably owes its existence to the fact it is situated

in a direct line between Wooster and Massillon, both established in the early 1800s and main targets of the railroad line.Orr then persuaded Robert Taggart in Baughman Township

to take 10 acres of his land and lay out 42 town lots, which Taggart sold for $50 each. Those lots were located north of the railroad tracks and east of Main Street. Then Orr entered into a partnership with William Gailey and built the promised water tank and saw mill southeast of Mill Street.

The first train came through the area Aug. 10, 1852, in one of Wayne County’s most historic moments. The new town of Orrville grew rapidly as people from neighboring towns that had no railroad flocked in.Two years later the Cleveland, Akron and Columbus

Railroad was built through Orrville. Running north and south, it intersected the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad and made Orrville a passenger and freight transfer center. Now area farmers could send their products to markets in Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cleveland or Columbus. In addition, they could earn extra money by cutting wood for the railroad.By 1860 the population of Orrville had reached 500, and on

May 9, 1964, it was formally incorporated under that name.In 1882 the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad built a line

through Orrville, positioned just south of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago tracks. While it offered some passenger service, most of the line was concerned with freight hauling.The real boom in Orrville railroading, however, was still to

come.In 1899 the Pennsylvania Railroad, which had taken over

the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad in 1869, acquired the Cleveland, Akron and Columbus Railroad. As a result, Orrville became a terminal for the Pennsylvania Railroad, and in 1907 a roundhouse was constructed. That structure contained six stalls, with five more added a few years later. Here engines were repaired, tanks were refilled and coal “clinkers” were removed from boilers while frieght was transferred from one line to another.The serving yard in Orrville grew to 17 tracks with a

capacity of 386 cars. The railroad depot that was built in 1851 was replaced in 1868 after burning to the ground. Today that depot still exists as a museum thanks to the efforts of the Orrville Railroad Heritage Society.In its peak years, 20 passenger trains and 42 freight trains

passed through Orrville daily. It is said that any time the town had a parade, the procession was invariably separated into numerous sections by passing trains.In 1923 a protracted railroad strike resulted in a

consolidation of railroad activities, and the major terminal activities were moved from Orrville to Crestline. During the Great Depression, the train and hotel business lagged. The railroad shops and many hotels and restaurants that depended on the railroad for their trade were closed by 1939.Orrville’s fortunes as a railroading town were briefly

resurrected during World War II when it was selected as a U.S. government storage site, with a huge amount of war materials collected and dispatched from an area just west of the city.After that, however, there was a great decline in railroads

because of the advent of the interstate highway system and the growing trucking industry.The city’s greatest population spurt came between 1900 and

1910, when the census recorded 3,066 people. These 10 years also marked the period of the greatest centralization here of railroad-related activities.In 1950 Orrville became a city, reaching a population of

5,150. Today, with a diversified industrial base, its population hovers around 9,000.Information contained in this article is derived from “Orrvile

Ohio, Walking Through The Past,” by Robert Witmer and Darla Landers, 1999.

Guide to Living in OrrvilleThe following are some topics of interest to the citizens of Orrville. For more information, visit the city’s website (www.orrville.com) and click on “Citizen’s Handbook.”

Animals – Animals are prohibited from running free within the city limits. All dogs must be licensed through the Orrville Veterinary Clinic, the Wayne County Humane Society (Wooster) or the Wayne County Auditor’s Office (Wooster). There are to be NO animals in city parks. Any animal (other than domestic dogs and cats), which in their wild state are carnivorous or which are capable of inflicting serious physical harm, are not permitted in the city. This would include animals which belong to the cat family or snakes which are poisonous or can cause physical harm (including all constrictors, bears, wolverines, badgers, lions, tigers and other animals as determined by the safety-service director). Farm animals are conditionally approved if the building used to house the livestock or fowl is no less than 200 feet from all property lines, commercial raising or breeding for commercial purposes are on lots of five acres or more, or any livestock or fowl is kept at least 150 feet from any residence other than the person’s keeping such animal.Automobiles – Driver’s licenses and license plates are issued by Orrville’s motor-vehicle deputy registrar’s office, 1430 W. High St., Suite 3, 330-682-0440; Charles Audi, deputy registrar; motor vehicle titles may be obtained through the clerk of courts office at City Hall, 330-682-8932.Bicycles – Bicycles must obey all traffic regulations. Bicycles should be registered with the police department to help in recovery if they are lost or stolen. Bicycles may be ridden on sidewalks, but not on those in any business distrcit. There are to be NO bicycles in Orr Park.Building Permits – Building permits, required for all construction, are issued by the Wayne County building inspector, 428 W. Liberty St., Wooster, 330-287-5525. Before obtaining a building permit, one must first obtain a zoning permit from the Safety-Service Director’s office at City Hall, 330-684-5004.Cemeteries – The city operates two cemeteries: Orr Cemetery, at N. Mill and E. Church streets, and Crown Hill Cemetery, at Crown Hill Rd. and W. High St.; a mausoleum at Crown Hill Cemetery offers alternative choices for burial; for more information, call the Safety-Service Department, 330-684-5004 Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.Curfew – For children younger than 14; 10 p.m.-5 a.m., Sunday-Thursday and 11 p.m.-5 a.m., Friday and Saturday. For youth ages 14-18: 11 p.m.-5 a.m., Sunday-Thursday and midnight-5 a.m., Friday and Saturday.Emergency Warning System – The city’s warning system consists of sirens and a cable-TV interrupter. The siren at Orr Park is also capable of sending voice messages, but the area of coverage is limited. Sirens are also located at the Lacy Service Center on E. Pine St.; Fire Station #2 on N. Crown Hill Rd.; in the industrial park on Collins Blvd., Beaver St. Park, and at the corner of N. Main St. and Smithville Rd.The sirens and cable television interrupter are tested

periodically. During testing, the sirens are sounded for a short period. Anytime you hear the sirens sounding for longer

than three minutes, you should assume there is a weather emergency, probably a tornado warning. You should seek shelter immediately and check a radio or television for more details. In cases of another type of emergency, you may be required to evacuate your home or to stay indoors at your home for a period of time. The radio and/or television will be used to convey the message. In most circumstances, residents must also rely on a radio or television to determine when it is safe to resume normal activities. AN “ALL-CLEAR” WILL NOT BE SOUNDED BY THE SIRENS. You are urged not to call the police department or City Hall, as these lines must be kept open for emergency assistance requests only.All residents, businesses and industries should keep a battery-

powered AM/FM radio for use in emergencies. It is also recommended residents own a battery-powered weather radio which gives emergency alerts of severe weather if kept in the alert mode.Weather websites: www.intellicast.com/weather/cle/nexrad,

2012 Chief ’s ReportNo new records have been set on the fire side of our operations.

Last year we set all-time records for most Fire Calls in a single year (235), the most Dollar Loss in a single year ($1,776,000), as well as the most Total Calls in a single year (742). All of these numbers are down this year. Our total calls dropped 37 from last year’s 742. The properties saved to loss percentages also came back up…increasing to 19 percent loss and 81 percent save in 2012. Last year it was 28 percent in losses to 72 percent saves.However, EMS runs continue to increase little by little each

year. This year we had 513 EMS Calls up by six from last year. These EMS calls involved 536 patients, transporting 438 of

them to the local hospitals. The EMS calls generated $233,864 in EMS Billings with a collection of $130,474 or 56 percent.We have again had a safe year with only one firefighter treated

at the scene for an ankle injury at a car fire, and no civilian fire related injuries or deaths.More good news! We have had a number of members step up

and increase their level of certification. Six members moved from Firefighter Volunteer level to NFPA Firefighter #1. We also have three of them going on to Firefighter #2 at this time. We have a member in class at this time going from Basic EMT to Paramedic. This brings our fire certification levels for the department to 14 NFPA Firefighter #2, 14 NFPA Firefighter #1 and 12 Firefighter Volunteer. On the EMS side, we have 3 Paramedics, 2 EMT-Intermediates

and 19 EMT-B; with two in Basic EMT and the one in Paramedic class at this time. These classes have accounted for over 1,000 hour increase in the departments total training hours for the year, with 3,875 hours put in this year. This is up from last year’s total of 2,823. The Training Bureau Members put together a number of very good drills this year with many facility tours and pre-plans conducted…making 69 hours available to every member at our station.The Prevention Bureau was also very busy again this year

conducting 41 programs for 2,015 adults and children.

Inspections have been very busy this year with all the new construction going on. We have had the downtown renovations, the new Smucker’s Plant, the new High School, Ventracs new plant and a number of other new construction projects. There has been 103 sets of blue prints go through the department for review.We hired five new members, had one member resign, and two

members retire. The two retiring members accounted for 74 years of service to the city. This brings our staffing level to 39 members.We finished the process of purchasing a new EMS unit to

replace the 1980 squad. New #62 made it’s first response on a call on April 18, 2012.Other items completed in 2012:• Completing the Narrow Banding Requirements of the FCC

making all of our radio equipment compliant.• We submitted a FEMA Grant in the amount of $386,600,

which hopefully we will receive to purchase all new SCBA’s and Turnout Gear. In the event we do not get that grant we have continued with the turnout gear replacement program we have been on since 2003. A new set of turnout gear, coat and pants only, is over $2,260 each.

• We finished up the remodeling of the kitchen at Station #1 and replaced the stove, dishwasher and microwave.

I would like to thank the Orrville Firefighters Association for helping the department pick up some of the recent financial shortfalls.

Orrville Chamber of Commerce dinner recounts businesses ‘on the road to success’

The City of Orrville is on the move. And if you have the slightest shred of doubt about that fact, you clearly weren’t among the 262 people who crowded into the Orrville Area Chamber of Commerce’s annual dinner at Wayne College Tuesday.The event brought together civic leaders and business people

from throughout the area, as well as city and county officials to hear a glowing retrospective on what has transpired there during the past year.Over the course of the evening, attendees were regaled with

stories of progress and investment in the community to the tune of more than $165 million, and in a unique program, representatives from about two dozen businesses recounted, in alphabetical order, how their businesses have been on the move along the highway of success.In one of the first major annual orders of business, the

prestigious Paul L. Powell 2012 Citizen of the Year Award was presented to Mark Auble, vice president of Auble Funeral Home.Following a “This is Your Life”-style power point presentation,

Auble was honored with a key to the city from Mayor Dave Handwerk, who told those assembled, “Orrville is thriving because of volunteers like Mark Auble,” adding, “He is a huge part of what makes Orrville special. He’s a take-charge, get-things-done kind of person.”Wayne County Commissioner Ann Obrecht read a special

commendation from the commissioners’ office citing Auble’s “limitless commitment and service to the Orrville community.” In front of a crowd that included a couple dozen members of the Orrville High School swim team that Auble coaches on a volunteer basis, Obrecht recounted numerous ways Auble has served the community.Also speaking both fondly and proudly about Auble was his

father and partner in the family business, Al Auble.In his turn, the award recipient said he was “blessed to have a

job that helps others, and I get paid for it.”Auble said that he learned love of community service from his

parents who “set the bar for volunteer service,” and added that he “bleeds red, with a little white and black” thrown in.He noted that he wants to be remembered as “a ‘yes’ man;

he said yes to everything. And that’s why we have a better community.”In the “Orrville on the Move!” segment, representatives

from 26 local businesses and industries -- from A to Z -- were

given a minute to speak about what it was that has put their businesses on the road to success.Most of the speakers rose to talk about investments they

have made, plans that are on the table for expansions, successes they have realized and opportunities that have come their way during the past year because of being located in Orrville.These ranged from Jonas Miller talking about expanding

the Orrville Chick Hatchery from it current capacity of 20 million chicks to 30 million chicks annually, to Chuck Diehl talking through poetry about the growing use of Smith Dairy’s compressed natural gas station and JLG’s adding 100 new jobs in its telehandler engineering and production since the start of 2012.Also highlighted were a three percent rise in circulation over

the last year at the Orrville Public Library, the transformation by the Orrville Redevelopment Corp. of the former Johnson’s Hardware building into the new Marketplace Orrville scheduled to open soon and Ventrac’s construction of its new global corporate headquarters in the city’s industrial park.Throughout the program a number of annually bestowed

awards were intermingled -- alphabetically, of course.Rod Crider, president of the Wayne County Economic

Development Council, presented the Quality Growth Award to the Will-Burt Company which started in the community in 1915, and is now the world leader in telescoping mast technology, with 400 employees. President Jeff Edwards said that during the past 30 months Will-Burt had bought six companies, four of which it has moved to Orrville.Ferenc Relle, director of the Wayne County Community

Foundation, honored the Orrville YMCA with the sixth annual WorthyWorks award. Relle said the Y has “steadily and successfully grown to meet the needs of its members” over the past 40 years. The award came with a $1,000 check.Dr. Andrew Naumoff presented the Growing Healthy

Habits award to Roger Hornstrum, who for the past six years ran the Smith Dairy Products Co. in-house wellness program for 600 employees prior to retiring recently. Naumoff said that with Hornstrum’s guidance, employees participating in the program registered better health screenings than those who were not involved. The $250 award was donated back to the Growing Healthy Habits effort in the community by Hornstrum.

2013 looks to be a year of highs and lows for Orrville. Federal and State Government cuts are beginning to effect some of our local industries. Some that rely heavily on governmental/ military contracts are starting to feel that squeeze and are cutting back production and becoming more cautious about spending. On the flip side we have some industries that are doing very well right now with Venture Products moving into their new facility this past January, The JM Smucker Co. continuing to expand, Goodwill constructing and moving into a brand new facility, Serpentini Chevrolet Buick breaking ground for a new facility in May. Our Downtown renovation project by Orrville Re-Development is nearly complete and looks amazing and should see new businesses bringing more shoppers to Downtown Orrville soon. The group to see the most in the highs and lows this year are our Orrville City Schools. We are seeing the completion of

our new high school and what will truly be a fantastic school campus, complete with many extras that were made possible with private donations from businesses and individuals. The excitement of moving into the new building was spoiled by the very uncharacteristic failure of an extremely important school levy for the second time in May. We can only hope that voters will see the need and benefit to the entire business community along with the students, teachers and staff and support the levy the next time around. Our city government continues to operate at a high and efficient level to provide our citizens with the best possible

service and remain in our financial boundaries. We are optimistic about our future, yet remain very concerned about the state and federal cuts and how it will change services that we provide. We remain very fortunate to have the highly successful and well organized businesses and industries that we have in Orrville and look forward to another positive year in 2013.

The University of Akron Wayne CollegeContact Information – 1901 Smucker Rd., 330-683-2010, www.wayne.uakron.edu.Interim Dean – Neil Sapienza Enrollment – 2,428More Information – Wayne College is the high quality start to a variety of educational options. In addition to bachelor’s degrees in business administration, social work and organizational supervision, Wayne College also offers freshman- and sophomore-level courses leading to bachelor’s degrees at The University of Akron (these courses also transfer to other colleges and universities). The general education courses required during the first two years of study, including sciences like Human Anatomy and Physiology for the medical professions, are available at Wayne College in a smaller classroom setting and at a lower cost than many larger colleges and universities. Additionally, Wayne College offers several associate degrees that can be

completed entirely at the Orrville campus. There are also certificate programs in technical areas that typically can be completed in one year of, full-time study.

The College’s Office of Continuing Education and Workforce Development offers many programs throughout the year for individuals and businesses. The office provides trainings in supervisory leadership, small business skills and specialized software programs.The University of Akron Wayne College was built on 160 acres of land purchased in 1967 by the Orrville Campus Foundation. The group,

composed of prominent local business leaders, donated the land to The University of Akron for the purpose of constructing a regional campus. The barn that was on the property was raised for the building of the college, but the farmhouse remained on the exact spot in which it was originally erected.The College opened its door in September of 1972. The building was expanded for the first time in 1989 with the addition of the John E.

Boyer Recreation Center. In 2001, the A and C wings were connected with the addition of the B wing, which houses the Smucker Learning Center. That project included an expansion of the existing library and the development of a courtyard. The next campus construction project was the adoptive re-use of the 1818 Barnet-Hoover Farmhouse that was completed in November 2005.The College’s most recent construction project, the Student Life Building, was completed in August 2009. The 36,000 square-foot building

houses the Barnes & Noble Bookstore, the Marketplace Café, a student lounge,The J.M. Smucker Company Multipurpose Room, the Office of Continuing Education and Workforce Development and three classrooms.

Paul L. Powell Citizen of the Year 2012

Mark Auble, a familiar face in the ranks of community volunteers, has been named the recipient of the 2012 Paul Powell Citizen of the Year Award.

Auble, of Auble’s Funeral Home, will be presented with the honor at the Orrville Area Chamber of Commerce’s annual banquet April 2.On Tuesday, the Chamber of Commerce emailed its

members a short video clip of President Jenni Reusser giving Auble the news of his selection as citizen of the year.Reusser had accompanied a videographer to the Orrville

YMCA under the guise of filming the girls swimming team. But when the camera equipment had been set up, Reusser made the announcement pool-side of Auble’s selection, to the cheers of team members.The Citizen of the Year award is named in honor of Paul

Powell, longtime editor of the Orrville Courier-Crescent newspaper that served the community for more than a century. In his regular columns, Powell consistently referred

to Orrville as “the promised land.”Auble has a lengthy resume of volunteer activities in

Orrville, as evidenced by numerous letters of nomination received by the Chamber on his behalf.Auble received the Rotarian of the Year award in 1998 and

1999, and was awarded the Paul Harris Fellow from Rotary, which is its highest award. He served as president of Rotary from 2001 to 2002 and was a regular volunteer for the Youth Exchange overnighter, Pancake Days and the Rotary 5K race.Auble also has had major involvement in the Orrville Area

Boys & Girls Club. Not only has he served as president of the board, a volunteer referee and coach and an endowment chair, but also as a volunteer for the chicken BBQ, the Kids! Benefit Auction, facility projects and maintenance needs. Auble was twice chairman of the benefit auction.In a letter of nomination, Kevin Platz, director of the club,

said, “Mark was one of the most responsible members of the organization,” adding he is “a dedicated member of the Orrville community and has donated countless hours of his time to the less fortunate citizens of Orrville. He has helped to implement plans and programs that will enrich the lives of those around him. His service has shown that he cares more about his community involvement than he cares about himself.”Marchelle Suppan, president and CEO of Aultman

Orrville Hospital, said in a letter of nomination, “Mark has been a tremendous contributor to our board of directors. His knowledge of both health care and the history of the hospital and the City of Orrville makes him a very valuable contributor to all decisions that are made.“In addition,” Suppan wrote, “he has been a strong

voice for quality and efficiency. He is very effective at suggesting performance goals that are realistic and supports administration in accomplishing them.”Ferenc Relle Jr., executive director of the Wayne County

Community Foundation where Auble serves on the board of trustees, wrote he serves as chairman of the organization’s nominating committee, its disbursement subcommittee and on the Laura B. Frick Charitable Trust Advisory Committee.“The WCCF is very fortunate of have such an energetic

trustee that volunteers and commits his time and talents in helping others,” Relle wrote.Bob Witmer, executive director of the Orrville YMCA

wrote, “We recently calculated the time that is involved each season and discovered that it totaled over 500 hours. Mark is a great motivator for the swimmers and is well-liked by all ages of kids and their parents. I know that a lot of personal sacrifices are required in order for Mark to be present for most of the practices and meets.”In another letter of nomination, Laurier Likens, guidance

counselor and swim coach at Orrville High School, said, “With just the high school practices and meets Mark volunteers his time at least 20 hours or more each week. Mark also volunteers as the head YMCA swim coach, which

STORY AND PHOTO SUBMITTED BY ORRVILLE AREA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

would double his volunteer hours. Without the volunteering that Mark gives for the OHS swim team, the team would have no water coach. The time commitment Mark gives is priceless to all the swimmers he works with.”Bob Ellis added Auble served as a co-chairman on the

fundraising committee for the Orrville High School Multipurpose Building.Auble is employed by Auble Funeral Home in Orrville,

working with his parents, Al and Suzy Auble in the family business.

About Paul L. Powell

Owner of The Orrville Courier-Crescent, Orrville’s highly acclaimed weekly newspaper from 1930 until late 1960’s, Powell wrote “Over the Fence,” a chatty, interesting and popular column that usually covered half a news page. He always called Orrville “The Promised Land.” He believed in his community, he supported his community and he did much for it. He was born in Leroy, Ohio, the son of a minister. He graduated from Ohio Wesleyan with a degree in journalism in 1922. He went to work for the Ashtabula Star Beacon after graduation. In 1924, he purchased the Wellington Enterprise, before coming to Orrville six years later.On an evening in July 1969 – only a few days after the

great July 4th storm and flood – the Courier staff hosted a retirement dinner for Mr. Powell. In a ceremony following dinner, the establishment of the annual Paul L. Powell Citizen of the year award was announced. It would honor a person whose efforts truly helped make Orrville “the promised land.”Previous recipients of the award are: Jim Specht, Bill Baer,
