West Branch "Power of the Pen" Students TCTC Student wins Excite to Write Contest sponsored by KSU Advance to State Tournament

TCTC Student Caitlyn Knowlton. Submitted Photo

After there was James Michener, there was John Grisham, after there was Jane Austen there was J.K Rolling. Who is to say that the next great writer will not be Caitlyn Knowlton, a senior from Newton Falls enrolled in the Biotechnology program at the TCTC? She has outstanding potential as a writer. Recently, Caitlyn was selected as a winner in the Excite to Write contest sponsored by Kent State University. She received a $750 scholarship to Kent State as an award for excellence in writing. English professors at Kent State assessed the submissions on creativity, insightful critical thinking, punctuation and grammar as well as paragraph construction. In her essay, Caitlyn wrote about the Art of Humor. She analyzed the memoirs of writer, Frank McCourt as expressed in Angela’s Ashes.

Congratulations to the West Branch 7th Power of the Pen Team for placing 2nd overall at the regional tournament on March 3 at Malone University. WBMS would also like to congratulate Jocelyn Carte who received 1st Place and Hope McGuire who received 6th Place out of all the 7th grade participants. A WBMS 8th grade team also attended the regional tournament. These writers have been working since October on finding their creative voice and developing important

writing skills for life. Both 7th and 8th grade teams are under the direction of Coach Rachelle Ring, a 6th Grade Language Arts Teacher at West Branch Middle School. More than 7,500 students in the state of Ohio compete in Power of the Pen. Thirteen schools participated in the regional tournament. The state tournament will be held at the College of Wooster in May. The 7th grade team includes: Morgan Brown, Lach-

lan Cameron, Jocelyn Carte, Croesus Fu, Hope McGuire, Ella Scofinsky, Jen Tedrow and Ally Zion. The 8th grade team includes: Peyton Bell, Eris Dugan, Kiersten Hofmann, Gloriana Maendel and Mara Woost. Runners for both teams, who are members that attend each tournament to assist judges with moving paperwork to the tabulation room, were Cameron Reichenbach and Lauren Cameron.

Jackson-Milton Men of Honor build leadership skills A new group at JacksonMilton Schools is focusing on building leadership skills in young men. The group is called Men of Honor. Nine male students, grades 7-12, are part of Men of Honor. The group meets once a week, and discusses a number of topics, including integrity, maturity and loyalty, and how these tie into leadership. Deputy William Sosnosky, Mahoning County Sheriff’s Office and Greg Domino, teacher at Jackson-Milton High School, oversee the group. “We are striving to develop strong leaders who are worth following in our community,”

said Greg Domino, JacksonMilton Teacher/ Men of Honor. The group has also covered the topic of appearance, and what “image” a man should portray. Discussions covered vocabulary, clothing and grooming. “Sometimes it’s hard being taken serious when you’re so young, but having good posture, dressing appropriately and making eye contact while speaking to someone, makes it hard for them not to take you serious,” said Austin Caroline, Junior and member of Men of Honor. “We have received multiple reports from teachers, par-

ents, even peers about improvements in work ethic, behavior in and out of school, appearance, self-esteem, maturity and overall attitude with the students in the group,” said Bill Sosnosky. “The changes in these nine students has been remarkable.” New Styles Hair Salon, a North Jackson business, heard about Men of Honor, and invited the group in for free haircuts. The owner, Shauna Graham, is also a Jackson-Milton graduate, and wanted to give back to district. Men of Honor runs for ten consecutive weeks. Organizers would like to see two groups a year complete the program.

Hubbard American Legion Post 51 to meet

The Hubbard American Legion Post 51 will hold its monthly meeting on Thursday, March 15 at 7:00pm in the Social Hall of the First Presbyterian Church at 22 Westview Avenue. This will be the first meeting of 2018. Parking to access the Social Hall is at the lower level parking lot of the Church. Refreshments are provided at the conclusion of the meeting. Commander Raica invites and encourages all members to attend.

TCTC Students Sacrifice Lunch Period to Prepare for Academic Challenge/Prep Bowl The post office’s mantra is that “neither rain nor sleet nor dark of night can prevent the postman from making his daily rounds”. A similar analogy holds true regarding the commitment of TCTC students who wish to represent the school in the academic tournaments held in Trumbull County. You could say that neither lack of study halls, free periods or geographic distance prevent these students from practicing for the competition. Students at the Career Tech Center have a full day divided between career/tech and academic courses. There are no study halls. Additionally because students come from all over Trumbull County, the vast majority

must catch a school bus at the end of the day. Nevertheless, the students in the picture made the time to work with advisor Dawn Haught to prepare for the competitions. To do so, they sacrificed a high school student’s most prized possession: they gave up their lunch period and the social time with their friends. Dawn Haught, the advisor was inspired by their commitment. She stated, “The students would bring their lunches to my classroom on a daily basis. With each passing week, they grew more confident with the subject matter. I am very proud of them.” During the present school the team has repre-

sented the school in a variety of academic tournaments

including Prep Bowl and Academic Challenge.

Excite to Write Continued from pg. 1 Allyson Russell, English instructor praised the caliber of Knowlton’s work. “Analyzing the humor displayed by an author is a very difficult writing topic. Nevertheless, Caitlyn jumped at this opportunity. She looks at essay assignments as a way to showcase and hone her skills. She has a bright future in a literature related field. Excite to Write was created by Kent State professions Ana Wetzl and James Canacci. The purpose of the contest is to help students realize that writing skills matter while at the same time strengthening Kent’s connection with local high schools. In an era where text and Twitter messages are commonplace, the quality of prose and the precise use of the English language have diminished. Students such as Caitlyn Knowlton stand as a proud alternative. Their words convey not only the message, but also the meaning behind them. The TCTC congratulates Caitlyn for her achievement.

LAW CAPSULES BUYER BEWARE WHEN PURCHASING REAL ESTATE When buying real estate, most purchase agreements have an “AS IS” clause which notifies the buyer that they are buying the property in its present condition and there is no warranty on the condition of the house or premises. Unless there is a verbal or written misrepresentation by the seller or the agent of the condition of any part of the property provided during the discussions, the seller will not be liable to repair or replace anything once the deed is recorded. The buyer should always ask specific questions about the property and do a thorough inspection of everything or retain a home inspector to do an inspection immediately after signing any purchase agreement. “AS IS” protects the seller, not the buyer.

Braydich Dental to Raise Funds for Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley

Braydich Dental, which offers affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures, will seek to help our community’s children by donating funds raised by a teeth-whitening promotion to Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley. Braydich Dental operates the annual Smiles for Charity Drive and selects a new beneficiary every year. This year’s drive began March 1 and ends June 30. During the program, patients donate $100 to charity in exchange for a whitening session at Braydich Dental. "In the past 15 years, we’ve raised over $250,000 for local organizations that help children, animals, and others.” says Dr. Rudy Braydich of Braydich Dental. "It’s just another way we look to support those who care for others. We are blessed and look forward to helping others since so many have helped us." All of the teeth whitening proceeds collected during the drive will go directly to Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley. All materials are donated by Braydich Dental. The goal is to raise $25,000. Participants will receive custom whitening trays fitted to their upper and lower teeth and enough whitening gel to whiten their teeth by five to seven shades. The drive is available to patients and non-patients of Braydich Dental. The office also has Opalescence teeth whitening system available that can erase deep stains with little sensitivity to the patient. "If you want whiter teeth, come in, make your donation, and you are on your way. It’s that simple," Dr. Braydich said. "Our patients are proud to be associated with a dental team that goes out and actively seeks to be involved in helping the community." Braydich Dental also provides dental implants, shortterm orthodontic solutions like Invisalign and Six Month Smiles, sleep apnea treatment and gum disease treatment. To review the comprehensive services or to see teeth whitening treatments, visit the website www.braydich.com or call 330-534-5408 for more information. You can also message the office at www.facebook.com/BraydichDental with any questions or to schedule an appointment.

Living With Your MVP’s The three indispensable people in your life

Text: I & II Samuel Everyone needs a JONATHAN-Jonathan was David’s trustworthy friend. (I Samuel 19-20) Amidst all the uncertainty in David’s life there was a friend. It was all about: · Loyalty (19:4) –“spoke well of him.” & (20:17)-“loved him as he loved himself.” · Honesty (19:7)-An ability to speak truthfully. · Encouragement (20:4) -Whatever you want me to do, I’ll do for you. Everyone needs a NATHAN-Nathan was David’s truthful friend. (II Samuel 12) A truth teller in your life is not afraid to put a finger in your face. (12:1) He brought three things into David’s life: 1. Courage-“You are the man!-(12:7) 2. Perspective-“I anointed you.”-(12:7-8) Everyone needs a Mephibosheth-Mephibosheth was David’s compassionate friend. (II Samuel 4) Mephibosheth represents a heart of hospitality and compassion for others. When was the last time you prayed God, send some MVP’s my way. Send me someone who will represent your embrace, your encouragement, your grace, your truth and your hospitality? Who can it be? Reflection Questions: -Can you think of any other friends that would be indispensable? Maybe you can comment on a friend who is you comic relief, or your life-coach, or your challenger, or some other quality characteristic they bring out in you. -Which of all of these qualities do you bring to a friendship? How will you use said qualities to make a difference in the future?

GALLAVANTIN’ In memory of Jane A. Harris By SueEllen Harris-Davis Cold winds still sweep the landscape, And winter’s still upon us, But budding trees with life renewed, Remind us of God’s promise. St. Patrick’s Day is here with green and orange and a Leprechaun with a pot of gold for us to find at the end of a colorful rainbow. Celebrations of Irish Heritage will take place this weekend at many places in the area. Great music, Irish Step Dancing, unique Irish dishes, and much more will be featured in many places to enjoy. May the “Luck of the Irish” be yours now and throughout the year. Congratulations to Jack DelGarbino as a State of Ohio Wrestling Champion for Girard High School in the 285 Weight Class in Division II. He has an extraordinary record this year with NO defeats. Forty-Six wins and no losses for this young wrestler this year is an outstanding accomplishment. Jack is the First Girard High Indian to achieve a State Title in the program’s 44 year history. Jack is only a Junior and has another year at Girard to compete. Even those attending The State Wrestling Individual Tournament were in awe of his expertise as he pinned his opponent in just 38 seconds winning the match. Jack’s father John “JT” DelGarbino won a state title for Liberty in 1991 and could not be prouder of his son Jack’s State Championship. Jack’s coach, Jim Cardiero, was a wrestler himself for Girard during his years at GHS and has coached the Girard Wrestling Team with great results both as a team and with many individuals going on to Districts and State Competitions. When interviewed, Jack could not praise Head Coach Jim Cardiero enough giving credit to him and the other GHS Wrestling Coaching Staff for their support, encouragement, and knowledge of wrestling that helped Jack achieve such success along with his father’s help as well. Congratulations again to Jack DelGarbino as the State Wrestling Champ. This past weekend, Girard Intermediate School 6th grader Molly Durkin who is part of The Burke School of Irish Dance performed at Fellows Riverside Garden located in Mill Creek Park’s Davis Center. “The Leprechaun Brunch” was catered by Kravitz Delicatessen who now is featured in the Café there as well as their place on Belmont Avenue in Liberty. Molly was part of the Step Dancers who performed several Irish dances for those in attendance. She has a very busy schedule this weekend on St. Patrick’s Day throughout the Mahoning Valley performing at various events. Delaney Scoville from Girard Junior High is also part of the group and has been for many years. It is amazing to watch these young people as they present such skill and grace dancing to the strains of Irish music. When Delany was in Prospect Elementary School she would present her dances in music class during this time of year and in her classroom to enhance studies of Irish songs. Molly was fascinating to watch as she displayed such remarkable energy and precision of steps to the Irish tunes with the rest of her group. Take time to see a performance this weekend. The group was also in the “St. Patrick’s Day Parade” in Boardman on Sunday, March 11th. This group is outstanding. For more information about The Burke School of Irish Dance, contact Theresa Burke, ACDRG, 3155 Canfield Rd., Youngstown, Ohio 44511, www.burkeirishdance.com. Lisa Devlin, President, can also be contacted at 330-207-6980, [email protected]. A New Beginner Class will start on Mondays from 5:15 to 5:45 p.m. on April 9th. Call or email to register. They accept students from 4 years of age. Girard is also represented this weekend by Bill Lewis in the Irish Ensemble, “County Mayo.” Bill plays a variety of instruments and also is a singer with the band and was featured as a “strolling minstrel” at “The Leprechaun Brunch” as he played guitar and sang visiting each table at the event. The other members of the group consisted of a flute player, keyboard player, and singer. This group is always outstanding to listen to and will have a very busy schedule this weekend. Kravitz’s on Belmont will feature County Mayo from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, March 16th, at their “Friday Fish Fry.” Go online and see www.countymayo.com for their concert schedule. There were 150 guests at “The Leprechaun Brunch” with children and adults enjoying the great food and program selections. Joe Shiavoni took time from his busy schedule to enjoy the event with his wife and two young boys. Joe’s roots are connected with Girard also. My sixth grade teacher, Clara Schiavoni Payak, was a relative of his and also Diva Schiavoni Higby who graduated from Girard High School, with my mother Jane O’Brien Harris, as the 1941 Class Valedictorian. After the “Leprechaun Magician,” at the event, Joe and his family headed to Columbus for another commitment. He also has been working with State Representative and friend Glenn Holmes, former Mayor from the Village of McDonald, son of Sylvia Holmes. Glenn is another GHS Graduate. Joe Schiavoni was also seen on Sunday, March 11th, at the “St. Patrick’s Day Parade” in Boardman

Girard First United Methodist Church held chili cook-off

One thousand dollars was raised by the "votes" of those in attendance. The church is continuing to organize ongoing donations of both food and money for the pantry. To contribute, go to the "Give" button on the church's webpage, www.girardfirstumc.org.

South Range Local High School presents “Once On This Island”

Do you own a washing machine? How much do you spend on detergents, fabric softeners, bleach, and hot water each month? Do you have any problems with odors? Does anyone in your home have allergies due to detergent residue? Are you concerned about the chemicals and carcinogens used to make the products we use to clean our clothes? Laundry detergents leave residue on clothing which is absorbed by our skin and inhaled. These chemicals cause anything from skin or eye irritation to maybe even more serious issues as some of the ingredients are considered potential carcinogens. Conventional laundry detergents generally contain synthetic detergents, which are often made of petrochemicals, phenols, whose vapors can be toxic to the nervous system and irritate the eyes, lungs and the throat. Fragrance is added which usually contains chemicals that have been linked to early puberty, autism, obesity, and birth defects. Also contained are brighteners, which are often made from benzene, a definite carcinogen, bleach, which contains chlorine (an environmental toxin–and possibly a carcinogen) They also contain phosphates, which break down minerals and render detergent more effective, but with harmful environmental ramifications A 2008 study found that of all the top selling laundry detergent brands tested, each contained at least one ingredient considered hazardous under federal law. But, none of these ingredients was listed on the label and the study didn’t disclose which brands were tested. Most detergents depend on phosphates and other ingredients now considered as carcinogens or in other words that can cause cancer. Bleaches have toxic byproducts. The itching or rash signals the beginning of another allergic reaction. These detergents are also known to be asthmaproducing. Conventional detergents are made from synthetic petrochemicals that are very hard on sensitive skin and the environment. They leave a residue behind on our clothing and on our skin, which is why skin allergies are so common. Fabric softeners, dryer sheets, fabric sprays...and now even laundry crystals are actually harmful to our bodies.

According to the EPA and industry-generated Market Safety Data Sheets, fabric softeners and dryer sheets contain a list of dangerous petrochemicals that are often used in untested combinations. In fabric softeners, Chloroform is a solvent and aromatic agent. You now have a choice and a decision to make. There are other products on the market that claim to help eliminate these problems. However, we believe we have the Best Solution. It’s called Laundry Pure. And it combines all the things we talked about into one great product. It helps you live healthier keeping your family safe from all those cancer causing chemicals. Your clothes will last longer. You will save by not paying for hot water, detergents, fabric softeners, dryer sheets and bleach. You will help the environment because you won’t be discharging those chemicals down the drain contaminating our water ways and you will not have to discard all the empty containers in the land fill. And the greatest news of all is this Laundry Pure is not only doesn’t cost $12,000. It will save the average family $600 a year. But That’s Not ALL Did I tell you this is risk free because it comes with a money back guarantee? That it has a three year warranty? That it never needs maintenance? Or That it installs in under 15 minutes? Did I mention if you have a front loader washing machine and have problems with odors, that you won’t anymore? Earlier I asked If I could show you a way to save on your Laundry Bill starting right now and start saving or earning approximately $600 a year, would you do it? Laundry Pure is the way. For more information on how to keep your family safe or better yet to order yours contact me today! You can call 330-559-3175, email me at [email protected] or just stop in at The Review Newspapers at 1123 West Park Ave. in Niles from 10 am to 6pm Monday thru Friday.

New tax legislation requires planning By Bill Welsh

Though many taxpayers appreciate the income tax cuts in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) passed late last year, others are skeptical that it will simplify their tax planning. With every simplification, there are many more tax issues that still require planning to realize extra tax benefits. Here are seven of them: Planning for all the moving parts In many ways, the TCJA gives with one hand and takes away with the other. The “giving hand” provides a lower income tax rate structure and a higher standard deduction, while the “taking hand” gets rid of personal exemptions, suspends many itemized deductions and limits deductions that remain. There are many variables that determine whether you come out ahead or behind and a tax planning session can help you figure it all out. Getting creative and flexible about itemizing Many itemized deductions remain the same, others were eliminated completely and some have new limits. For example, while charitable contributions are still a qualified deduction, there is now a $10,000 combined cap on state, local and property tax deductions. The new constraints mean considering creative solutions to maximize these deductions. One idea is to make better use of the donation of appreciated stock as part of your charitable giving. Dealing with new complexity in small business ownership Small business owners and sole proprietors will have to do a complicated calculation to see how much of the 20 percent reduction to pass-through qualified business income they can take. It depends on your profession and your expenditures on capital and wages. This calculation can get complicated very quickly. Understanding the newly changed “marriage penalty” The disadvantage for married couples within the tax code is still very much in place, but it is changing. For instance, the marriage penalty that had given unfavorable income tax rates to married joint filers when compared to single individuals goes away in the TCJA for most income levels. But it rears its head again in the $10,000 combined state, local and property tax limitation, which does not double for married joint filers. This is something you’ll have to plan around. Getting credit for your kids There are many new tax benefits for parents in the TCJA. The child tax credit doubles to $2,000 and the phaseout threshold jumps to $400,000 from $110,000 previously for joint filers, making it available to more taxpayers. Dependents ineligible for the child tax credit can qualify for a new $500 per-person family tax credit. On top of that, distributions from 529 education savings plans can now be used to pay private school tuition for K-12 students. Adjusting to disappearing tax breaks If your tax planning was built on any of the following expiring tax provisions, you’ll have to change your plan: personal exemptions; miscellaneous itemized deductions; home equity interest; alimony deductions (expiring in 2019); the additional child tax credit; theft and casualty losses; and the domestic production activity deduction (DPAD). Facing the old complexities Many areas of the tax code remain largely the same and contain both potential pitfalls and opportunities to find tax savings. Managing capital gains and tax-loss harvesting, charitable activity deductions and a tax-advantaged retirement strategy are just a few areas where you can unlock extra value with smart planning. The big changes to tax reform this year may be disconcerting at first, but in change there is opportunity. After the dust settles on the 2017 tax season, get ready to take a detailed look at what 2018 tax reform means for you.

Campbell 6th Graders Work on Multi-Theme Art Projects in Class

Above: Kendall Brunn (left) and Ava Tovarnak (right) show off their charcoal drawings of Moana and Brooke from the TV show Scream, respectively. Right: Gregory Givens works on painting his clay bowl, which is shaped like a snake’s mouth. Contributed Photos.

The students in Jessica Rotondo’s 6th grade art class have been hard at work this nine weeks, creating multiple art projects under one central theme. “I asked my students to pick a theme they were interested in or passionate about at the beginning of the nine weeks,” said Rotondo. “This is the theme they would use to inspire their clay sculptures and grid drawings.” Her students chose a variety of different themes, including mystical lizards, favorite TV show characters, NFL football, cats, ‘things I love’ and ‘I hate art.’ Each student created a clay sculpture within their

theme that they painted and were glaze-fired in the class kiln. They also did a pencil drawing, using the grid technique, of another image within their theme. Their drawings were then colored in using different shading and blending mediums such as charcoal, chalk or colored pencils. The students’ artwork will be on display at the upcoming March Madness Community Night on Thursday, March 15th from 6-8 p.m. at the Elementary/ Middle School.

Niles Girl Scout Delivers “Thank Yous” to Deployed Military When Niles Girl Scout Caja Wolf spots a uniformed military member, you can bet that soldier will get a hug from the 9-year-old Girl Scout. Others, deployed in active duty, might find themselves munching on a box of Girl Scout Thin Mints thanks to the Niles Intermediate School fourth grader and member of Girl Scout Troop 80002. Caja has been on a lifelong mission to support those serving in the U.S. military. Part of her support comes in forms of hugs and blessings and another by way of donated Girl Scout Cookies. This year alone, Caja raised donations for 244 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. The cookies will arrive to active-duty soldiers overseas in care packages through the Girl Scout’s Operation: Sweet Appreciation gift of caring program.

“They’re far away and don’t have their families there. It’s nice for them to have some cookies and relax a bit with their friends in the military,” says Caja, who hits the streets on her local Girl Scout cookie sales rounds. Caja’s affinity for military members became apparent when she was just 3, says her mother, Victoria Wolf. Then, during a family dinner out, Caja noticed a woman at the restaurant who was dressed in military fatigues. Without hesitation, Caja exited her family’s table and climbed into the soldier’s booth to give her a hug. “She thought she was being punked,” says Victoria Wolf, describing the woman’s reaction to the unrehearsed scene that ended with the soldier placing her Air Force digital camouflage hat on Caja’s head and a snapshot to capture the moment.

Today, with Caja’s sister, Jalen Jefferson, a longtime former Girl Scout soon to complete her Army basic training and pursue her role as a chaplain’s assistant, the local Girl Scout has an even greater appreciation for military members’ callings. It’s really an affirmation of a passion Caja has had all along. “I always wanted to be a

Destination Imagination Teaches Kids 21st Century Skills By Victoria Remley

The Destination Imagination Ohio Kids for Creativity Region 1 Tournament on Saturday March 10 at Youngstown State University promoted mental growth in children. Robin Clower Timko, the event planner, said the program helps kids grow creatively. “The Destination Imagination Challenge Program (DI) is a fun, hands-on system of learning that fosters students’ creativity, curiosity and courage through academic challenges,” Timko said. The event combined STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education with the arts and social entrepreneurship. “Students who participate learn invaluable 21st century skills as well as patience, flexibility, persistence, ethics, respect for others and their ideas and the collaborative problem-solving process,” Timko said. Thirty teams made of 172 students, team managers and three volunteers per team participated. “There are hundreds of people who make this program a success. All of us are volunteers,” Timko said. Sam Timko, a volunteer, worked in the score room. He said students should participate in the event because it encourages learning. “It’s a creative thinking program. It promotes critical thinking, creativity and very

positive life skills that will get you further ahead,” he said. Cindy Baer, a teacher in Howland, started volunteering for DI when her children were in the program. Baer said teachers started preparing this event in August. A governing board divided the responsibilities up between themselves. The board met monthly to plan the tournament. “Most of the people have been doing it for many years or their children are involved in the program. They are people who value the program and want to see it continue, so they volunteer their time,” Baer said. Baer said children should participate in the event to help them grow as future leaders. “With public schools the way they are right now, as a teacher and with state standards, sometimes I think as educators we feel that the creativity piece is not as strong as it needs to be. When we get our students involved in something like this they are going to become the future innovators and future leaders of the world. We need their spark and that’s what this promotes,” Baer said. Aaron Henceroth, a parent, came to DI for his daughter. “This is the second year she’s been in DI, last year for Columbiana and this year she goes to Valley Christian School,” Henceroth said. Henceroth said he en-

joyed watching the kids take ownership of their skits. “They [the kids] have to put their props together. They have to get everything ready,” Henceroth said. Dana King and Carolyn Matzye came to the event for the kids. “We came for the kids to compete and work together and learn cooperation. It’s just fun for them,” Matzye said. King enjoyed seeing the kids complete their main

attraction. “When they complete it and seeing the satisfaction that they worked through their little obstacles. It’s so nice to see them feel that accomplishment when they are done,” Matzye said.

Storm Service Solutions Provides Free Damage Claim Inspection Hubbard Church to Host By Victoria Remley

Storm Service Solutions, a veteran owned local company, specializes in damage claim services after wind and rain storms hit the Tri-County area. Jessica Weiss, the office manager at Storm Service Solutions, said the company’s project managers come out and do the inspection for free. Storm Service Solutions work with insurance companies during inspections. If Storm Service Solutions finds damage during the initial inspection, they inform the customers whether the damage constitutes for a claim or not. If they don’t find damage, they tell the customer to not call their insurance company. Storm Service Solutions then tells customers how long they have before their roof needs to be fixed. “Once a claim is called in we work with our customers hand in hand every step of the way. We meet with the adjuster and we can talk on your behalf. We handle the claim for you because people get caught up in the insurance industry and then it’s hard because they don’t understand what their [the insurance company’s] policies are,” Weiss said. Storm Service Solutions offer deductible assistance programs to help customers pay for roof repairs.

“Tragedy into Triumph”

“A lot of times people, when they do file a claim, have this preconceived idea that their insurance company will drop them if they do file an insurance claim, and that’s not the case if there’s a legitimate claim on your roof,” Weiss said. Storm Service Solutions purchased Gutters Plus last year. The service is mobile, which allows the company to produce gutters on construction sites. They offer contractor prices on the gutters. “Some of the smaller construction companies in the area that don’t have that ability [to provide gutters on site], we’re able to provide those services for them. We can bring them out to their job sites, drop them and then they can hang them for their customers at a discounted rate,” Weiss said. Storm Service Solutions owns their own dump trailers and an Equipter for their roofing projects and gutter company. All of their service equipment is together, which allows the crews to leave in the morn-

ing and finish the job during the day. The company donates to several organizations in Cortland and Trumbull County. They have sponsored Love Life, baseball teams and a street fair in Cortland, Ohio. Storm Service Solutions provide their services all year. “Even though there’s snow on the roof now, when the snow melts, and in those days when it’s a little bit warmer outside, we still go out and check the roofs,” Weiss said. All Storm Service Solutions contractors work strictly for Storm Service Solutions. The company is moving into the window industry, but

they focus on roofing, siding and gutters. They do doors and interior repairs such as drywall if it’s related to storm damage. To contact Storm Service Solutions and Gutters Plus, customers can send an email through the company’s websites stormservicesolutions.com or Guttersplusohio.com. Customers can reach Storm Service Solutions’ office at 330-979-9322. Office hours are Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. They offer emergency services that can be used any time after hours. Storm Service Solutions can be contacted through Facebook. They are located at 127 N. Mecca Cortland, Ohio.

a large number of enslaved people escaping in a group or several escapes from a specific location in a particular space of time. Before the Civil War, the majority of these escapes occurred from border states like Kentucky. These “stampedes” captured the public imagination and further helped to construct the Ohio River as an important site of Underground Railroad activity. This presentation will examine these escapes and how they better help us to understand slavery and freedom. This is the first of three free programs in the series and will be presented in the Thomas Meeting Room on the second floor of the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library. Doors open at 1:30pm and the lectures will begin at 2:00pm. For further information visit www.sutliffmuseum.org, call 330-395-6575, or find us on Facebook or Twitter.

Gallavantin’ Continued from pg. 6 again with his family enjoying the parade. Joe spoke in the Fall at the TRTA (Trumbull Retired Teachers Association) at Ciminero’s in Niles about the changes in Education in the State. Some of his family grew up on Washington Avenue in Girard. What a schedule he keeps! The Girard Intermediate School 6th Grade Students will be going to Washington D. C. in May, their annual trip. For many of Girard’s students, it is a once in a lifetime experience to see the monuments and museums. The students get to visit Our Nation’s Capital with their teachers and staff members. The Girard Community has always generously contributed to help many needy families send their child to D. C. Students are given several opportunities to raise money to help offset the cost of the trip. However, even with the support of the faculty and staff, there are some families that have difficulty coming up with the final balance of money needed to send their child on this excursion. Therefore, the GIS Staff and PTO is asking for help with any amount of monetary donations to help with the cost so that all students who want to attend may be able to take part in this experience. The trip cost is $375 per student. Any amount small or large would be appreciated. Send money order or check to: Girard PTOWashington DC Trip, c/o Girard Intermediate School, 702 E. Prospect St., Girard, Ohio 44420. Contact Principal Gregory Bonamase at Girard Intermediate School for further details at 330-545-5219. Some Girard Alumni have even generously sponsored the entire amount for some students so they can attend. Any amount will be appreciated. Recently Tyler Wilson and Vincent Ragozine, fourth grade students from the Girard Intermediate School, celebrated birthdays. Both generously gave up a large birthday party celebration and asked their parents to donate items and money to the New Food Bank established in the GIS for students in cooperation with the Second Harvest Food Bank. Following their request, their families donated items needed to stock the shelves and gave to the program so that additional items could be given so other students who needed help with food could be given take home items.

Leo

Leo is a 2-year-old, neutered chocolate lab. He was surrendered to us in December when his owner could no longer take care of him. He’s very friendly and loves meeting new people. He has an exceptional amount of energy and would love to find an active family to go home with. Once he gets all his energy out, he loves to roll over for some belly rubs! He would do best in a home without other dogs. His adoption fee is $150 and includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm testing, microchip with registration and more.

Toby

Toby is one beautiful boy! He’s an 8year-old DMH with a gorgeous mane and unique markings. They’re a mixture of white and gray. He was surrendered back in December due to health issues with his owner. He previous owner was an older gentleman, so he would likely do well in a quiet home. He liked to receive affection and be pet on his own terms. His adoption fee is $20.17 and includes his neuter, vaccinations, FeLV/FIV testing, a microchip with registration and more. Shelter hours are Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 6p.m. Adoptions close at 5:30 p.m. The shelter is closed on Sundays and Mondays. AWL shelter is located at 812 Youngstown Kingsville Road SE in Vienna, across the street from Avalon at Squaw Creek. For more information call, 330-539-5300 or visit www.awlrescueme.com.

ASK THE LIBRARIAN “Sometimes when I’m online, a website will ask me to type in a bunch of weird letters and numbers, or pick out all the pictures that have a car or a street sign, or just click box that says ‘I’m not a robot’ before it lets me go any further. Why does this happen?” These are a few different examples of a CAPTCHA, an acronym that stands for “completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart.” According to Architects of the Information Age, edited by Robert Curley, the CAPTCHA was developed in 2000 by computer scientists at Carnegie Mellon University. Yahoo requested their help keeping bots (which are automated computer programs) out of their chat rooms. The bots were collecting personal information and filling the rooms with spam. However, the programs couldn’t recognize distorted text. By asking users to identify twisted or crossed-out letters before they could enter the chat, Yahoo ensured that only people, not bots, could enter their chat rooms. The official CAPTCHA website gives us a few more examples of what it does. It can prevent bots from sending spam comments, stuffing the ballot boxes of online polls, and slowing down email services by signing up for thousands of accounts at a time. If you forget your email password and have to make a few guesses, the site may ask you to solve a CAPTCHA. This protects your account by keeping bots from running through every possible password until they get in. There are ways to circumvent CAPTCHA. Artificial intelligence has gotten good at solving the ones that are only text, which explains why newer CAPTCHAs can involve images. For answers to your questions, visit the Newton Falls Public Library, 204 S. Canal Street, Newton Falls or phone 330-8721282.

Free Tax Preparation Available in Trumbull County

The Trumbull County Partnership for Financial Empowerment has joined together with several partners to expand the availability of FREE tax preparation by trained tax preparers. Ginny Pasha, President of United Way of Trumbull County and a Partnership for Financial Empowerment member, states “We hope that by expanding the availability of free tax services, we can help more low to moderate income working individuals and families receive all the refund to which they are entitled.” A new site this year is the Trumbull Community Action Program at 1230 Palmyra Road in Warren. New sites this year will be using the Ohio Benefits Bank tax program with trained volunteers ready to provide assistance. Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins may be accepted. For individuals and families required to complete a FASFA form for college, by using the Ohio Benefits Bank program, the completed tax form will automatically populate the FASFA form. In 2017, the AARP Tax Counseling program at SCOPE served more than 2,500 filers. Each year millions of people have their tax returns prepared for free by volunteers who are part of the IRS Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) or the AARP Tax Counseling programs or the Ohio Benefits Bank tax program. According to Pasha, additional sites or opportunities may become available throughout the tax season and information will be published as those firm up. Pasha adds, the barrier to expansion is the availability of volunteers who are willing to be trained to prepare taxes. “ It is not too late to be a trained tax preparer, so if you have a heart to help others, please call United Way at 330.369.1000 x 28. “ Free Tax Site Locations: SCOPE of Warren, 375 North Park Ave. Call for an appointment: 330-399-8846, M-F: 8:45 am – 1 pm, Tuesday only: 4-7 pm SCOPE of Howland Center, Howland Trustees Office, 205 Niles Cortland Road, N.E., Warren.

Boardman Second Graders Use Their Marbles Top: Mia Martin, Mitchell Evans, Logan Miller, and Callie Walker showing how their marble run works. Above: Kaylee Bushling, Milo Wright, and Christopher Solvesky testing out their marble track. Contributed Photos.

First they collected cereal boxes, paper towel rolls, paper plates and other recyclables. Then they designed and created a track that would carry a marble from start to finish. The Marble Track is a science project that second graders in Mrs. Krestel and Mrs. Koehler’s classes at Stadium Elementary really look forward to completing. The project addresses the Physical Science Standard: namely, that forces change the motion of an object. The students use trial and error to create tracks that will start, stop, speed up, and slow down a marble.

annual President's Day dinner

On Wednesday, Feb. 7, the Austintown Historical Society observed their annual President's Day dinner at Davidson's Restaurant in Cornersburg. Mr. Wade Schisler shared his memories of his childhood growing up with his family while they worked and lived at the old Mahoning County home on Herbert Road, also known as The Infirmary, poor house, old folk's home or "The POGEY". Wade knew the many residents who worked the farm and served themselves. Wade's uncle, Mr. Charles Lee was superintendent for some twenty years and his wife Mayme assisted in the daily workings. During The Depression, the home was a lifesaver for many people.

Brookfield High School student Dakota Obermiyer brought his registered therapy dog into two first grade classrooms for a Read Aloud as part of his science project for Youngstown State University. For the past six weeks, Dakota, his therapy dog, Beezus and his sister Emily have visited two first grade classrooms at Brookfield Elementary School. One class spent time reading with Beezus, while the other classroom did read alouds with Emily or Dakota. The students were then asked to complete a short survey about their reading experience. This was an experiment Dakota was conducting for his YSU Science class project. He was trying to gauge which class had a higher response from the read alouds, either with a therapy dog or a human. The results from the survey will be analyzed to compare the reading sessions and the outcome of which the students responded to more.

The February 6th meeting of the Struthers Rotary Club featured a presentation by Gary Folkwein of Alta Behavioral Healthcare. Host Rotarian Jim Jickess introduced Gary, who is the Director of Alta and has been associated with them for 25 years. An outgrowth of the Diagnostic and Evaluation Clinic (D&E) started in 1970, Alta evolved to address the need to focus more on children’s issues in addition to their work on behalf of young adult behavioral problems. The Head Start program for children 3-5 years old is now overseen by Alta, which is funded by the Mahoning County Mental Health and Recovery Board and the Children’s Mental Health Circle of Friends Foundation. The staff includes a psychiatrist and a nurse practitioner who can address the needs of those served most effectively and who augment the counseling services provided by Alta. In addition to the Alta facilities the group maintains ‘Camp Challenge’ near Mill Creek Park to provide a wide range of experiences for the children in the various programs. Through the ‘Classroom Connections’ program children identified by school personnel can be assisted in dealing with their behavioral difficulties. Early childhood programs have been established for children under 3 years of age that can address difficulties that begin in early life and, hopefully, prevent problems later in life. A major component of those programs fosters good parenting skills. Trauma therapy is also supported to deal with difficult life situations and dovetails with several of the other programs that focus on specific behavioral problems. More information is available on the web at http:// www.altabehavioralhealthcare.org or can be obtained by calling toll free at 888-840-KIDS (5437). Local facilities are maintained on Belmont Avenue in Youngstown and Javit Court in Austintown.

Janet Keene of Salem presented the background of Quakertown Super Kids Race Team to members of the Rotary Club of Austintown. Since 2006, this race has provided children between the ages of 7 to 18 with a chance to race soapbox cars down Broadway Avenue in Salem. The event had been around since 1980 but needed a boost to get reactivated in Salem. Racers are provided, and practice and doctor permission are required.

Boardman Elementary Students Celebrate 100 Days of Learning Boardman Second Graders Brush Up on Dental Health

Boardman elementary students celebrated 100 Days of Learning in all kinds of ways the first full week of February! Some dressed the part of 100-year-old Spartans, some decorated or counted at learning stations, and others enjoyed a balloon drop and made "100" themed crowns. “My first graders counted to 100 to build up the excitement before we let the balloons loose for the balloon drop,” said Robinwood Elementary teacher Tiffany Rowe. “We set up learning stations, and even a photo booth with props to mark our 100th day.” Students at West Boulevard Elementary also enjoyed pretending to be 100, and others chose to make shirts celebrating being 100 days smarter.

Akron Children’s Hospital appoints first chief quality officer

Michael Bigham, M.D., has been named Akron Children’s Hospital’s chief quality officer, a new position. In this role, he will lead quality, safety and patient experience to ensure the hospital consistently improves child health and delivers excellent patient care. For 10 years, he has served as a pediatric intensivist in Akron Children’s Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). In addition, he has been the hospital’s medical director of Transport Services, where he co-founded Akron Children’s Ground and Air Medical Quality Transport Database, which is the largest international repository of quality performance metrics for transport. Lastly, he has served the medical staff as chair of Medical Performance Improvement for the past three years. After receiving his medical degree from the University of Toledo’s College of Medicine and Life Sciences, Dr. Bigham completed his pediatric residency and fellowship in pediatric critical care at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. In addition, Dr. Bigham received quality improvement certification from Salt Lake City’s Intermountain Healthcare Advanced Training Program in clinical quality improvement. Dr. Bigham will transition into his new role over the next few months — being mentored by Dr. Robert McGregor, Akron Children’s chief medical officer — but will continue to share his clinical expertise part time in Akron Children’s PICU. Dr. Bigham is board-certified in pediatrics and pediatric critical care medicine. He resides in Hudson with his wife and two children.

Austintown Intermediate Joins Struthers Sixth Graders Spread West Branch Students Selected No One Eats Alone Day Love and Encouragement for OSU Honors Band

Struthers 6th graders are spreading love and encouragement with Love Rocks. Contributed Photos.

Struthers 6th graders are spreading love and encouragement with Love Rocks. Students spent time during class learning about the story of Love Rocks, which is an organization founded by Susan and Thomas Robinson in honor of her two daughters Anna and Abby. While playing in their front yard, both girls were tragically hit by a car. In their memory, their parents decided to share the immense love and joy their daughters had with others through Love Rocks. Students then created their own love rocks to share with parents during parent/teacher conferences in hopes of getting them to also participate in spreading kindness one rock at a time. They also wrote notes of inspiration to share with other students, along with their love rocks “We are everyone, if they see a love rock around town, to think of the hard work our students did and continue to share the love with others,” said teacher Jennifier Pint.

Austintown Fitch High School Earns Purple Star Award

The Austintown Local Schools are proud to announce that Austintown Fitch High School has earned a Purple Star Award from the Ohio Department of Education. The Purple Star Award for military-friendly schools recognizes schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military. Fitch High School was recognized for the numerous activities that honor military families and local veterans. In August, a committee of dedicated individuals were assembled with the main focus being to create a more nurturing environment for military connected families throughout the district. The committee, now proudly named the Purple Star Committee, is working on a special project at Fitch High School that will serve as the main “hub” for all military related activities. Fitch’s application is also listed on the ODE website as an “Exemplary Application” to use as a point of reference for others wishing to earn a Purple Star designation.

Some Brookfield High Schoolers have learned a new skill in art class - basket weaving! Students in Linda Bain’s textiles class recently finished weaving reed baskets to use as holders for pencils or desk supplies. Students used watered-down reeds to shape into their basket. Some were small and wide, while others baskets were tall and slim. The students also added beads for color, while some painted their finished baskets.

DAR announces Good Citizens award winners

Glenwood Junior High Awarded Purple Star for Dedication to Military Families

Glenwood Junior High is one of only 44 schools across the state to receive the Purple Star designation from the Ohio Department of Education. The Purple Star Award honors military-friendly schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military and veterans. On November 10, 2017, Glenwood Junior High hosted a student-led event inviting more than 50 local veterans from all branches of the military as well as reservists who were friends or family members of our students and staff. Congressman Tim Ryan and State Representative and Air Force Reserve Lt. Colonel John Boccieri were guest speakers for a school-wide program that filled the gymnasium. While the Veterans Day Event was educational and inspiring, Glenwood has made great efforts to service military families every day. Counselors have identified students whose parents are active service members and provided them information and assistance. They are given information packets with opportunities for scholarships, grant money for camps and extracurriculars, tutoring support, and standardized test prep. “My husband is in the military, and even for me, my eyes were opened,” said Glenwood Counselor Courtney Abruzzino. “For instance I had no idea there were free tutoring services, and scholarship money that could be used for children to participate in extracurricular activities. It’s extra help out there, for military families who sometimes find themselves overwhelmed.” Some of these resources are also available to all students...regardless of a military connection. Resources can be found under the Guidance Counsel tab of Boardman Schools Website.

The Mary Chesney Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution recently hosted a luncheon at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Warren and presented monetary awards to these students based on the qualities of dependability, leadership, service and patriotism.

“Shop until You Drop” has new meaning for Canfield Rotary

At a recent Rotary luncheon, Paula Kalaman, Executive Director of the Hope House Visitation Center in Youngstown was the speaker. Hope House provides a safe, homelike atmosphere where supervised visitations and exchanges can take place when there are issues of divorce, separation, or safety concerns for children. It is a non-profit public charity primarily funded by federal, state and private grants. Ms. Kalaman explained that it is the goal of the Center to help provide safety, stability, and nurturing for children in struggling

families and to assist in maintaining an essential relationship with both parents and extended family members in a safe and cheerful setting. When asked by a club member if Ms. Kalaman had a "wish-list" for the Center, she shared a very modest list of items such as postage stamps, disinfectant wipes, and after school snacks for the children. That’s all the motivation Canfield Rotarians needed. At Canfield’s Valentine Dinner/Dance, a collection for the agency was held and $1200 was collected. “Shop and Drop” plans

The range of material includes social studies, earth and space science, the environment, and culture. Of course, geography is at its core. Students must take a qualifying test to compete at the State level. Brendan is one of only two students from the Mahoning Valley to qualify. He'll compete against the top 100 students from across Ohio. “Brendan took the qualifying test, which allows for exactly one hour to complete...and he finished all the questions in less than 20 minutes,” explained Glenwood Social Studies teacher Vince Carnevale. “Brendan has worked hard, studying and learning about other cultures, and countries, and he truly loves it.” The winner of the State Bee will advance to the National Geography Bee, which will be held in Washington, DC May 20-23. These events are sponsored by the National Geographic Society in order to improve geographic literacy and integrate more technology into the classroom.

Damascus Elementary School Principal, Caitlin Reash, and school secretary Corie Sands, spent a Friday afternoon duct taped to the gymnasium wall as part of a PIE scholarship fundraiser. From February 19-22, students purchased strips of duct they would use to duct tape their principal to the gym wall. A total of $1,952.71 was raised from this year’s fundraiser, which was more than double the money they raised last school year. As a bonus for the students, since they raised more than their $1,350 goal, the school secretary was also duct taped. The top two students who donated the most money also got to pie Mrs. Reash and Mrs. Sands in the face. This event is done each year and all money raised funds the Damascus PIE Scholarship, which is given to one graduating senior who attended Damascus Elementary School for at least 4 years. “It was a messy and fun fundraiser, but the entire school really looks forward to it each school year,” said Reash. “I am especially proud of my students for doubling the total dollars we raised last year and help aid this great scholarship.”

The GFWC Ohio Austintown Junior Women’s League recently completed a Conservation project that benefited U.S. Veterans. With a generous donation from “Things Remembered” of blankets and robes that had been erroneously embroidered, members were able to make lap blankets, walker bags, and therapy balls. Members trimmed out the fabric, sewed seams into the blankets, fringed them, and added decorative buttons. Each blanket was then rolled and decorated with ribbon. AJWL members made and signed greeting cards to accompany each item, thanking the veterans for their service to our country. Specialist 4th Class Harry Reinhart, who is a bilateral amputee, spoke to the group about the need for these items at our local VAs. Mr. Reinhart was delivering the items donated by the AJWL to the Wade Park Veterans Hospital in Cleveland.

Members of The Ursuline Center’s Prayer Shawl Ministry cleaned out their closets for a great cause. The ladies, who hail from Mahoning and Trumbull counties, meet monthly to create shawls for ill residents in our area. Now they’re sending supplies to Nigeria to help women there become entrepreneurs. Pat Cuttica, a parishioner from St. Christine Parish, Youngstown, is friends with a priest from Nigeria who has visited in this area and the supplies will be sent to him to help women there learn knitting, crocheting and quilting to help their families financially. Eileen W. Novotny, Prayer Shawl Ministry Coordinator at The Ursuline Center, says, “I am thrilled that our extras are finally finding a home and all the possibilities they will bring into the lives of other women a world away. Our prayer shawl ministry has been the ‘mother’ to many other groups that have started up over the years, and here is a chance for our legacy to continue.” The Prayer Shawl Volunteers always appreciate donations of yarn. The shawls and preemie caps they make for area patients are given free of charge. The group also welcomes new members. For more information, contact Novotny at 330-533-3831.

More than $7,500 was raised at the second annual West Branch Middle School St Baldrick's "Dance for a Cure" fundraiser on March 2nd. St Baldrick's Foundation is an organization dedicated to finding a cure for pediatric cancer. As part of the event, teachers and staff members volunteer to have their heads shaved to raise money for the foundation. This year the volunteers included, Principal Roger Kitzmiller and teachers Amy Criss, Mike Falasca and Dan Hall. At the first event, held last year, more than $5,000 dollars was raised as a result of the dance fundraiser. The amount this year is still growing, thanks to the students and teachers of WBMS as well as some local businesses and families with the community. This successful event was organized and spearheaded by 8th grader Kennedy Close. She came up with the event idea last school year because she wanted to give back within her community. Now it is an event that students and staff look forward to each year.

Three Fitch Speech Team members presented their 4 Way Test entries at the March 12 meeting of the Rotary Club of Austintown. With the aid of their coach Andrea Reed, each were given the Rotary 4 Way Test as a theme, and explored how the four questions would enable the public to determine what course of action to take in daily decisions. The questions are: Is it the TRUTH, Is it FAIR to all concerned, Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS, and finally Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned. With this guideline, and a limit of four to seven minutes, each chose topics like school shootings, opioids, and hurtful words as application areas. Winner was Haley Farrow, Fitch junior, and she will compete on a district level in Akron on April 7 at the Fairways Golf Club.
