‘Man Cave’ Offers Options for Those with Storage Needs and Beyond
Tucked behind Berardi’s and The Gym is a new and unique business in Huron- Man Cave Storage Condos and Warehouse Units. The Man Cave was the brainchild of owners Rick Mesenburg, Mike New, and Greg New. Each of these men has a hobby that requires space beyond what is available at their homes. “We needed a place to store all of the things our wives did not want around the house or in the garage.” stated Mike New. Hence, the men decided to explore the idea of a business that offers themselves and other men (or women) with need for more space an option. The concept for the Man Cave is a bit different than most other storage units. First, these units are available for sale and operate much like a condominium. Hence, each unit is individually owned, and it is up to the owner as to what they make of their unit. Each owner is responsible for paying their own gas bill, and there is a monthly fee, similar to an association fee, that covers water, sewer, electricity, and outside maintenance of the building. Second, each unit is equipped with pluming, heat, electricity, and cable. So, each owner can easily add a restroom. Third, the property upon which

the Man Cave sits is zoned commercial. Therefore, any individual owner can operate a business from their unit. Finally, the Man Cave is conveniently located near the boat launch, restaurants, and Ace Hardware. Currently, there are eight units, six of which are available for purchase. Alternately, there is the option of leasing the unsold units for a short period of time during this winter only. When at least six of the units are sold, the owners plan to begin construc-

tion on another set of units. Each unit contains roughly 1,100 ft2 and measures 24 ft by 48 ft with a 17-ft high ceiling. The entrance to each unit has both a 15-ft high automatic garage door and a 36inch wide entry door. The possibilities are endless as to what each unit can become. One of the units is currently being used by Mesenburg and the New brothers. To enhance their space, the men added a bathroom with a shower, a loft complete with couches and a large television, and will soon

add a pool table. Each man also has items related to their hobby in the unit including boats, antiques, and motorcycles. In an effort to showcase the Man Cave, the owners will hold a Grand Opening event on Wednesday, November 14 from 5:00-8:00 PM. The event will feature adult beverages, cigars and ‘manly’ appetizers. The Man Cave is located at 250 Cleveland Road, East. For more information, visit www. mancaveunits.com or call Mike New at 419-656-5498.

Donations Sought for Light-Up Huron Charity Event
The end of the year is always a good time to reflect on the last several months and count your blessings. Once you consider how truly blessed you are, it is often customary for many to look to those who might be struggling financially and offer some assistance. In an effort to do just that, Huron’s Secret Santa program will once again provide gifts and necessities to those families in Huron who are in need of some help. (The identity of the Secret Santa’s must remain, well, secret!) Once again, the Huron Hometown News (HHN) is teaming up with Admiral’s Pointe to host the Light-Up Huron Charity Event to raise funds for the Secret Santa program. This is the third year that HHN and Admiral’s Pointe have held this event. Currently, HHN and Admiral’s Point are seeking donations of fully-decorated Christmas trees, wreaths, centerpieces, or baskets. In the past, donations have come from a variety of families, organizations, and businesses. If you are interested in helping, get creative, and then drop off your donation at Admiral’s Pointe from now until December 1. The donated trees, wreathes, centerpieces, etc. will be on display at Admiral’s Pointe from now until Thursday, December 6. On that date, HHN and Admiral’s Pointe will host a Silent Auction/Wine and Cheese Party from 6:00-8:00 PM. The event is free and open to the public. If you are interested in bidding on any of the items, you can preview them anytime on Saturday, December 1 at Admiral’s Pointe. The goal for this years event is to raise $2,500.00. Consider bidding on an item at this worthwhile event. You will not only add some beautiful items to your Christmas decor, but you will also indirectly help those families in Huron in need. For more information, contact Connie Roberts at 419-357-777 or Lisa Hudson 419-433-4990.

Huron Votes Yes on Library Levy
On Tuesday, November 6, Huron voters came out in large numbers to support the Huron Public Library. A total of 5,796 people cast their vote on Issue 18 which allowed for a replacement of the current 0.8-mill levy and an additional 0.45mill levy to benefit the Huron Public Library. Over 61% of voters saw the immense value that is the Huron Public Library and voted in favor of the levy. The library staff, Board of Trustees, and Friends of the Huron Public Library are all thrilled with the result of the election. “We are deeply grateful for the community’s continued support. With this increase in funding we will be able to restore weekend operating hours and make crucial upgrades to technology and investments in our collections that are long overdue. Thank you, district voters!” stated Daniel Slife, Library Director. Terry Griffith, President of the Library Board of Trustees, added.We are so grateful to the people of Huron, Huron Township, Berlin Township, and Milan Township for their vote of confidence in the Huron Public Library.

Two Incidents Involving Children Recently Reported to Huron Police

The following two incidents were recently reported to the Huron Police Department. • “On October 11, 2012 at about 7:15 p.m., an eight year old boy was at the library, on his bicycle, by himself. He reported that a male and female in a silver, four-door car with “rusty wheels,” said to him: “Get in the car.” The boy said this was repeated “three or four times.” He said he rode away on his bicycle and was not followed. He said that he did not see anyone else in the parking lot when this happened. Other people were at the library at the time and no one saw anyone nor did they see a car matching the description provided by the boy. Surveillance video from the library was reviewed and nothing worthwhile found.” • “On October 30, 2012, at about 4:45 p.m., we received a report from a 13- year old boy. He reported that on October 26, 2012, sometime after the Huron Football game, he was walking, alone, on Center

Street just north of Bogart Road. While walking a “red, rusty car with a white roof and paint chips,” drove along side of him and the lone male driver said, “Do you need a ride?” The boy said he kept walking, and the male asked him several times to get in the car. The boy walked on Standard Street with the vehicle following until they both reached the Pied Piper where the vehicle turned onto US 6 eastbound.” In neither case, did the “strangers” make any overt attempt to force the children into a vehicle. The Huron Police Department has been actively working to inform the public about these incidents, and they are taking these reports very seriously. “I can assure you that I and all officers of the Huron Police Department place an extremely high priority on the protection and safety of our children.” stated Chief Bob Lippert. The Huron Public Library has also pledged their support in resolving these cases and preventing any further incidents. Unfortunately, the second incident was not reported for almost four days,

which largely limits the success of resolving the case. These two cases may or may not be related. “In reviewing the two reports, I do not see similarities in the descriptions of the involved vehicles. The only similarity noted is that in both reports a white male is described as being involved, however, the additional descriptions do not match.” explained Lippert. Thankfully, our community is very safe, but one should never assume that something bad could never happen in Huron. Chief Lippert believes that parents should stress a few important facts to their children to further ensure their safety. First, never talk to strangers without the permission of your parents. A stranger is anyone you do not know. Second, if a stranger tries to talk to you, leave the area and tell a trusted adult immediately. Get a good description of the stranger, the stranger’s vehicle, and if possible, the license plate. Finally, there is safety in numbers. If at all possible, walk with a friend.

Jennifer Kilbury Receives Chamber Bright Star Award
\The Northern Ohio Area Chambers of Commerce (NOACC) recently honored deserving members of its 120 Chambers, located across northern Ohio. Jennifer Kilbury, a member of the Huron Chamber of Commerce, is the recipient of this year’s Bright Star award. NOACC and its member Chambers recognize the invaluable assistance that volunteers provide to these organizations year in and year out. The recipients were showcased recently at a dinner meeting at the Great Lakes Science Center in downtown Cleveland. “Chambers, like any progressive service organization, could not function without a great team of dedicated volunteers,” said Vicky Hawke, NOACC’s executive director, during the presentation ceremony. “They pitch in to help the Chamber directors in so many ways, expecting nothing in return.” The old adage of “when you need something done, count on a busy person to do it,” certainly holds true for this year’s Huron Chamber honoree. A wife, mother and owner of Cottage Designs graphic arts business, Jennifer Kilbury still makes time to work on projects for the Huron Chamber throughout the year. She and Chamber director Sheila Ehrhardt collaborated to create a colorful collage of Huron photos that have proven to be a very popular souvenir and memorabilia item that the Chamber is using as a fundraiser. “Although originally from Bainbridge, Ohio, Jennifer is passionate about her adopted community and has pitched in to help on projects way too numerous to mention,” Ehrhardt explained. President of the Huron River Fest committee, a member of the Huron Joint Recreation Board and the Huron Education Foundation, Jennifer also served as co-chairman of the city’s Bicentennial “Artirondack” community art project in 2009. She is a volunteer for Water Safety Day, a hands-on program for all students in 3rd & 4th grades, and provides stories and photos about Huron school activities to area media. This energetic young woman still finds time to operate an advertising and marketing agency out of her home. She and her husband, Rodney, are the parents of Jack,14 and Maddie, 11.

The 85” x 97” quilt is themed Red, White & Blue “Stars for Kathy.” Scheid dedicated this quilt to local women, Kathy Miller and Kathy Camp, who recently lost their battle to cancer. “This quilt was sewn with a lot of love because I was dedicating it to these two special ladies,” Scheid said. The quilt was crafted by Scheid and her helpers Sue Schindley, Ruth Reed, Evelyn Ruffing and Barb Smith. Kathy Camp also helped to craft the quilt, but lost her battle to cancer five weeks before it was completed. Tickets are a $1 donation each or 6 tickets for a $5 donation. Drawing is Nov. 16.

November Gardens
Mary Strayer, MaSter Gardener, author, Lecturer The weather turned warm again, then cold again and many of us wonder how many more days we will have in the gardens. As I walked through my garden today, I thought of all the everlastings still in my garden, and decided to bring a bunch of cuttings into the house for holiday use. The following are some ideas which came to mind as I gathered my cuttings. First of all the alliums’ seed heads are still there and lovely. I cut the stems as long as possible, to give me flexibility later. Last year I painted 7 of them with silver paint to use in Christmas arrangements. You can use any color you want, but plan now, before the heavy snows ruin the plants totally. Fertile fronds of the ostrich fern are also still available. They are rusty brown, and look great in arrangements. Cut the stems long also. Remember to spray the fronds with hair spray or polyurethane to keep the seeds intact. Walk around the evergreens and the arborvitae to see where they can be trimmed for December holidays. I do not cut mine ahead of time; as they hold up better if cut fresh closer to the holidays. If you are using evergreens outside, cut and shaped into an arrangement, you may cut them as soon as the weather turns cold, and stays that way. They will hold up at least until you desire to change them. I have kept some, and added Valentine’s Day touches to them, and they were most appropriate. You may also notice the grasses have ‘bloomed’ and their heads are ready to be clipped. First of all you do not have to trim your Miscanthus grass until March and can enjoy the movement of the plant all winter. It is especially beautiful with the snow and ice crystals on it. Again cut the stems and keep them in the garage until you want to use them. Sedum blooms are still in great shape most places, and hold up well in arrangements. Cut them and hang upside down to dry in the garage for use after a week’s time. Autumn Joy Sedum is especially lovely, and if you don’t have it, consider adding it to your gardens next spring. My Echinacea or purple cone flower heads are a deep color now, almost black. Pick them, and you can use as they are, paint them any color you wish, including silver and gold, and enjoy them all winter. If the weather holds, consider crab apples on stems for your arrangements for Christmas. You can pick them ahead of time, but they dry down, and are not as lovely. A simple pot or vase with a cluster of stems would make a lovely table arrangement. Thanks for reading my column, and Happy Gardening!

Sports
Huron City Schools Represented in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Varsity Cheerleader Kristen Koschutnik will be dancing her way down 6th Avenue in the New York City Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade later this month representing Huron High School. Koschutnik, a senior, earned this opportunity when titled UCA All-American while attending a Universal Cheerleaders Association Camp last summer. The Huron Cheerleader set out to accomplish several fundraising efforts to support her trip to the Big Apple. Family, friends and many local businesses jumped on board to provide financial assistance to help make the dream a reality. The Huron River Fest Committee was inspired by Koschutnik’s energy and like always takes pride in finding ways to give back to the community. This past year, as with any River Fest weekend, there were plenty of odd jobs that needed to be completed and not enough people power to do them. Kristen and her mom, Betsey, spent several hours each day selling the Huron River Fest t-shirts for the committee at the Huron Boat Basin in return for a donation to her travel fund. Koschutnik competed in competition cheer programs from 4th grade until her sophomore year in High School. She has cheered her Huron classmates on as a basketball and football cheerleader in 7th and 8th grade and all throughout high school. Koschutnik is excited to be traveling to NYC with the Spirit of America Productions Group. While there she will have the opportunity to visit NBC Studios, Radio City Music Hall, visit the Empire State Building and of course, Lady Liberty. Koschutnik’s membership in the National Honor Society, ability to work year round at a part-time job, and complete over one hundred community service hours a year will serve her well as she takes off next year for either The Ohio State University or University of Toledo to study to be a Physician’s Assistant or a Pediatric Nurse. Either way Koschutnik wishes to keep the option open to potentially continue her cheering career. Koschutnik is still accepting donations for her trip. Interested parties may contact her mother (Betsey) for details (419-2715317). The Koschutnik family wishes to thank all of those who have supported them in helping make the trip to New York City possible: Huron River Fest, Domino’s Huron, Arby’s Huron, Old Town Windows, Local 42 Norwalk, Jim’s Pizza Box, Shepherd’s Shoreline Construction, Perseverance Lodge of Sandusky, and support from family & friends.

Tigers Fall Short to Bishop Ready, 3-2
Ferrell, Sterett Receive All-Ohio Honors
There are few things in High School sports faster and more exciting than top level volleyball. And anyone that attended the Huron v. Bishop Ready Regional Semi-Final match at Findlay High School got their fill! Huron ultimately lost to Ready 3-2 (22-25, 25-15, 21-25, 25-21, 15-13) but the action was Ohio volleyball at its finest. Two Lady Tiger participants were rewarded with All-Ohio honors this week. Kat Ferrell, who will attend Appalachian State in the Fall, was selected to the First team. Meanwhile, Sophomore phenom Hadley Sterett was given an Honorable Mention... High pressure points, monster blocks, and bodies lunging for unbelievable saves highlighted the match. Senior Sydney Grendow playing in her final high school match was outstanding, as she has been through out the tournament. She had 44 assists and 22 digs on the

Huron City Schools Rated “EXCELLENT”
Huron Rotary Cultine
Huron band members, Alison Litz, Renata Kurtz, Ashtyn Stadler, and Hannah Blackwell, dressed as the Pink Ladies from Grease during the band’s performance at the Huron Rotary Halloween Party at the Huron High School gymnasium this past Monday. As the first quarter of the 2012-2013 school year has come to a close the Ohio Department of Education has released the Preliminary District and School Report Card for the 2011 – 2012 school year. Huron City Schools is pleased to announce they maintain to carry their “Excellent” rating as well as they are the highest ranking District in Erie County. According to the Ohio Department of Education’s website, the District has passed all 26 of the 26 Performance Indicators measured on the report and the Performance Index once again rose this year from 103.4 last year to 103.7 this year. This data ranks the District as 124th out of the 611 school districts across the state. As noted the Huron City Schools scored 26 out of 26 on the number of State Indicators. To earn an “indicator” at least 75% or more of the tested students must score “proficient or higher” on the Ohio Achievement Assessments and 85% or higher on the 11th grade Ohio Graduation Test, 93% or greater Attendance Rate and 90% Graduation Rate. Huron City Schools earned a Performance Index of 103.7, the highest in the area. According to the Ohio Department of Education, the Performance Index reflects the achievement of every student enrolled for the full academic year. This number is achieved by assigning a weight value to performance levels. The value increases with the performance levels. The Performance Index can be compared over the years to show district achievement trends. “These reports offer so much valuable data that enable us to work with the staff to identify successful trends,“ stated Curriculum Director Christine Standring. As Huron has much to be proud of; there is still room for improvement. Ideally a Performance Index of 108 is a very reasonable goal and obtainable based on the two goals the District set back in 2010, she explained. The first goal was to meet the Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). The APY of the Report Card is a federally required measurement for every school and district that is set for Reading and Mathematics Proficiency and Participation, Attendance Rate, and Graduation. The goals of the AYP are applied to ten students groups comprised of economics, ethnicity and disabilities, explained Standring. The second goal of the District is to incorporate additional Professional Development through webinars, web-based videos and other means without necessarily pulling staff from the classroom. Providing the teachers with the proper tools to be successful and establishing a shared understanding the teaching needs will ultimately create a better educational environment, Standring explained. Maintaining the EXCELLENT rating, meeting all 26 Indicators and increasing the Performance Index to 103.7 to generate the highest ranking District in the county, Huron’s administration, teaching staff and students have much to be proud of.
