    Every year the second full weekend in Oc-tober Oak Harbor holds its annual AppleFestival. This year the 35th annual celebra-tion was held Oct. 11-13. The festival hoststhe Apple Run 5k, a parade, baking contests,kiddie tractor pulls, food vendors, localapple orchard vendors, rides, entertainmentand more. This year there was a revival ofafter-hours entertainment called Applepal-ooza.

    The event is a collaboration with the OakHarbor Chamber, said Applepalooza cre-ator and Apple Festival chairperson CarolynRodenhauser. We approached local busi-nesses to see if there was an interest andCommunity Markets stepped right up tothe plate. Rodenhauser said that she want-ed to have better entertainment at nightfor the Apple Festival to draw more people

    downtown for the event. The Apple Festi-val and Applepalooza are good for the com-

    munity and its what the community needs,Rodenhauser explained.

    At 7 p.m. on Saturday Oct. 12, Last BornSons played and were followed by the Junkplaying from 10 p.m.-1 a.m. Over 1000 wristbands were sold for the Applepalooza eventwhich started at 4 p.m. Fifty volunteers fromthe Oak Harbor, Port Clinton and Fremontareas helped to make the event happen.Sponsors for the event included Communi-ty Markets, Crogan Colonial Bank, Valeries,Radiant Window and Remodeling, ToddPuckett of State Farm, Centurion Technolo-gies and First National Bank.

    As for the Apple Festival overall, ValerieWintereld, president of the Oak HarborChamber, on Friday said they expected20,000 people to attend the festival through-out the weekend. With the weather beingso beautiful, were going to have a great

    event, said Wintereld. And it was.More photos online at thebeacon.net.

    A childs death is notwhat we expect from lifesnatural course of events.We assume that childrenoutlive their parents andwhen this unthinkabletragedy occurs, it is hardto imagine that anythingcan make a family wholeagain or allow us to move

    forward with our lives.A little over a year ago we

    imagined a place of soli-tude, a place to reect anda place to remember ourchildren. We wanted to cre-ate a place to soften the sad-ness of visitors who neededa special place to honorthe memory of their child.Our dreams came true last

    year when we were grantedpermission to build such aplace at the southwest cor-ner of Lakeview Park. OurChildrens Memorial be-came a reality.

    It is a parents biggest fearthat their child will be for-gotten. As we look at thenames inscribed on thepavers at our ChildrensMemorial, we know thatthey will always be remem-bered. Many years fromnow, visitors will knowwho our children were.They did exist. This Chil-drens Memorial is not onlyfor our children, but all ofthe children in this areawho have died.

    their desire to give back and contribute totheir community. Hateld said, I was raisedhere, I work here, I want to raise my familyhere and I want to contribute to the commu-nity. Fall also spoke of contributing to thecommunity, I am more than someone whocan just balance the books.

    Hot topics of the evening included newsewer lines and, of course, Waterworks Park.All the Pot Clinton candidates supported thedevelopment of Waterworks Park, but somewere skeptical of the lack of a structuredplan. Most candidates said they would ap-prove of a plan only if it was concrete andwasnt a prototype or concept.

    On Saturday evening at the Catawba Is-land Club, Black Swamp Bird Observatory(BSBO) celebrated 20 years o bird con-servation. The evening honored BSBO, itsvolunteers and eatured keynote speakerJoe Du, co-ounder and CEO o Opera-tion Migration.

    Guy Denny, retired chie o the Ohio

    Department o Natural Resources andPresident o the Ohio Natural Areas andPreserves Association, was the Master oCeremony or the evening.

    Kim Kauman, Executive Director oBSBO, the premier birding organizationin the state o Ohio, reviewed the meteoricrise o the organization since its oundingon the living room foor o Mark and Ju-lie Shieldcastle. The BSBO is now housedin oces at the entrance o Magee MarshWildlie Area near Oak Harbor.

    BSBO PROGRAMSBSBO was ounded on research and that

    remains its cornerstone. They have beenstudying hawk migration or 18 years andthe migration o herons and egrets and

    butterfies (honorary birds).Recently BSBO was instrumental in es-

    tablishing a large section o Lake Eriemarshlands recently dedicated as a Region-al Shorebird Reserve. Through this desig-nation, these marshlands became part oa global network protecting an estimatedve million acres o habitat and 30 millionshorebirds.

    The Lake Erie Marshland Reserve is onlythe second such reserve in the Midwestand the rst in the Great Lakes to receivethis designation.

    The Navarre Marsh banding station nearOttawa National Wildlie Reuge, the larg-est bird banding station in the country, hasbanded over 571,000 birds.

    The Ohio Winter Bird Atlas is nearingcompletion and will be the rst in thecountry, the culmination o 8,000 volun-teer hours and a decade o eorts.

    EducationI research is the brain o BSBO, edu-

    cation is the heart, said Kim. They haveestablished Nature Camp, Young Explor-ers, Wetland Investigation Network, andprograms or teacher education. The OhioYoung Birders Club was started with 6 kidsseven years ago and is being embraced byother states as the prototype or establish-ing their young birders clubs.

    Other programs o BSBO include work-ing on a Spanish language bird guide,working with the Black Swamp Birds andBusiness Alliance, and the new BirdingOhio Facebook page that has now 2,000ollowers.

    The Focus on Diversity Conerence has asits mission changing the ace o conserva-tion. It has been said that you cant build abirder without building a conservationist.BSBO supports alternative energy whilelobbying and educating about the dangerso windmills in bird fyways. They lobbyand educate about the detrimental eectsto birds o balloon releases and outdoorcats.

    BSBO has been eatured on televisionprograms Dirty Jobs and CBS SundayMorning.

    Yet perhaps no BSBO program has moreo an impact on our area than The Big-gest Week in American Birding, the larg-est birder estival in the country, that eachspring brings 80,000 birders to the areaand contributes an estimated $37 millionto the local economy. Kim emphasized thatit is not the birders that bring the birdshere, it is the habitat.

    In personalizing the impact o BSBO,Kim shared that it is perhaps best drama-tized by the transormation o a tough citykid that held a blue jay and then became ateacher to ellow students about his new-ound bird riend, or by the blackpoll war-bler (a bird that each year migrates romthe ar north to South America) that wasbanded at the Navarre station and returned

    to the same station ve years later, or by thenew birder that said, Birding has changed

    my lie. Thanks or giving me a purpose. Iam so grateul.

    Kenn Kauman, author o birding guidesand international birding authority, addedemphasis when he said, Some o the nestpeople in the world are birders.

    Joe Du had a successul career as a com-mercial photographer. His new mission isto promote the conservation o migratoryspecies, through innovative research, edu-cation and partnership. Du believes thatconservation and habitat preservation isthe most important issue acing the world.

    Du and his team conducted the rsthuman-led bird migration, using two ul-tralight aircrat to lead 18 Canada Geeserom Ontario to Virginia. The success othis initial study led to the ounding o thenon-priot Operation Migration in Cana-da in 1994, the making o the movie withColumbia Pictures Fly Away Home in

    1995, and the ounding o Operation Mi-gration in the United States in 1998.

    The Whooping Crane projectOperation Migrations current project is

    leading the migration o whooping cranes2500 miles rom Wood Bualo Park inCanada to Southern Texas and Florida, us-ing three ultralights.

    The endangered whooping crane, a birdthat has links to the dinosaurs and thathas been around or millions o years, hasa population o only 170-300 in the wild.Eorts to raise them in captivity have notbeen successul.

    The Operation Migration processWhooping crane eggs are hatched at

    Patuxent National Wildlie Center in ??Vir-ginia. Whooping crane sounds are playedto the birds while they are still in the egg.

    Once hatched, the fedglings must im-print with adult whooping cranes, andcannot be imprinting with people or othertypes o birds. Any people who are aroundthe birds must wear special disguisingoutts, not only when they are young butthroughout the migration process. It is vi-tal to the survival o the birds that they notimprint with humans and that they main-tain a ear o humans.

    The young birds are transported to Wis-consin by private plane.

    In Wisconsin, the birds learn to fy a lit-tle at a time, led by the ultralights. In the

    cranes world, the planes and the disguisedpeople are just other birds. There are manydominance contests among the birds andwith the planes and disguised handlers. Itis un to deal with the birds on their level,with a bird that is ve eet tall, says Du.

    Once the birds are strong enough andexperienced enough to fy, the migrationbegins.

    Like geese, the birds fy in a V, ollow-ing the lead aircrat, with the lead bird do-ing the work until it tires and another birdtakes the lead. The birds fy o the vorteceso the ultralights wingtips.

    Du equates the fights to an aerial ro-deo, with the ollowing aircrat leadingbirds that all behind.

    For three months, Operation Migrationleads the cranes south, stopping at pre-setlocations donated by very generous peo-ple that have the appropriate habitat. Thebirds are always kept away rom people andnoise. At each stop, pens are set up or thecranes or that night.

    Once they arrive at their southern pre-serve, the cranes go through a gentle re-lease process, protected in pens part o thetime, and gradually released out into theswamp longer each day.

    Though it takes three months to lead thewhopping cranes south, when they returnon their own, the birds make it in abouteight days. It is humbling, says Du.

    Craneiac facts

    The Operation Migration crew travelswith our motor homes, portable pens and

    our aircrat.At the end o the migration hundreds o

    Craneiacs fock to greet Operation Mi-gration, though the birds are kept isolatedon their preserve.

    The Wisconsin location had to bechanged because black fies drove the birdso their nests.

    When ormer President and First LadyJimmy and Rosalyn Carter expressed in-terest in seeing Operation Migration as ittraveled near Plains, GA, they were out-tted in camoufage and hidden in thewoods.

    The Disney Fund is a big supporter oOperation Migration.

    One o the whooping crane destinationsis near Tallahassee, FL, and the other nearCrystal River, FL. Last year the rst naturalwhooping crane nest in the Eastern fywaysince 1878 was established at one o thepreserves.

    The ultralight Trikes are very simple air-planes that weigh about 400 pounds, travelat 38 m.p.h., and have only one movingpart. One o the Operation Migration air-crat is in the Smithsonian Institution inWashington, DC.

    Up to 20 whopping cranes a year are es-corted by Operation Migration. There arenow about 100 whooping cranes migrat-ing. The birds are hal wild. The nextplan is to get many o the whooping craneeggs rom native nests in Wood BualoNational Park to preserve more o theirwildness.

    This whole earth is like a machine.Marshes and species all mesh together. It is

    critical to protect the wetlands, says Du.I you are saving a species like the whoop-ing crane, we are saving habitat.

    The Benton-Carroll-Salem Board of Education took upforward looking action and discussion items at its regularmeeting held on Tuesday, Sept. 24th. First, Board mem-

    bers highlighted the efforts of the Rocket Soccer Com-plex Improvement Committee and a recent donation itreceived from Bechtel Corporation, a lead contractor onwork currently being done at Davis-Besse Power Plant.Mr. Roger Fulwiler of Bechtel Corporation addressed theBoard members and audience about Bechtels willingnessto be a part of meaningful and worthy projects that ben-et the communities they work in. Board members ex-pressed their thanks to Bechtel Corporation for their con-

    tinued support of B-C-S School District, which included apast donation of $5,000 to benet the Music Department.

    Also, the Board discussed that information was being

Theserenewal levies include a 3.9 mill operating levy renewal,which was originally passed in August 2000. This levygenerates approximately $1.3 million per year. The otherlevy up for renewal is a 1.2 mill permanent improvementlevy that was originally passed in November 1979thislevy generates approximately $175,000 per year. Passageof these two renewal levies will result in NO new taxes forcitizens.

    In other business, the Board approved several person-nel recommendations from the superintendent, includ-ing issuing supplemental contracts to teachers to serve asmentors for newer teachers. B-C-S and districts aroundthe state have utilized a mentoring program to supportteachers to help them navigate the many dimensions ofthe teaching profession. The Board also approved coach-

    ing staff for winter sports. The B-C-S Board of Educationalso had a formal rst reading of revisions to ten BoardpoliciesThe Board also formally approved a purchaseagreement for the sale of the Graytown School buildingand property to North Point Educational Service Center.

    BY DONNA LUEKE

    One o the major prob-lems or Lake Erie is theruno that happenswhen there is a heavyrain. The soil runs othe felds and yards,into the streams andrivers, and out to thelake, carrying with it

    soil and nutrients, someo which also contributeto algae blooms. The armerloses valuable topsoil and nutri- ents. Thestreams and lake fll with silt, damaging fsh and wildliehabitat and necessitating dredging that urther damagesstream and lake beds and shorelines.

    Dwight and Lisa Clary are lie long, ull-time grainarmers rom Kansas, Ohio. Their land eeds into theMuskellunge, a tributary that eeds into the SanduskyRiver north o Fremont. They practice conservation ag-riculture, their term or using the best possible practicesor the armer and the land and waters. They have beenpracticing 100% no-till arming or 31 years, and plantcover crops to hold the soil and nutrients over the winter.

    The Clarys saw a need and an opportunity, and, in the16 hours a day riding on a tractor came up with the con-

    cept or the Clary In-Stream Sediment Collector. The ideacame over time. From concept to construction, it took us10 years, says Dwight. The frst one was built in the allo 2010.

    Simply stated, the collector is placed in the bed o aeeder stream where it collects sediments. The collectedsediment is removed about twice a year and the valuabletopsoil and nutrients are returned to the felds.

    By collecting the sediment beore it passes through cit-ies, the sediment does not become contaminated and

    thereore can be returned to theland. By keeping the streamshealthy, there is no need to stripvegetation and river bottoms asstreams become blocked. Thegoal, says Clary, is to system-atically and strategically install(the collectors) in sub-water-sheds, so that the stream willdrop its load o sediment where

    nature wants to, restoring thenatural profle o the stream.In the 2200 miles o sub-wa-

    tershed streams o the Sanduskywatershed, i 1000 collectors areinstalled, at least 100,000 tonsper year o sediment would beremoved, enough to cover 100acres six inches deep.

    Who would benet? The armers, by retaining

    and returning soil and nutri-ents, improved drainage

    The townships, counties,state and US governments, im-provements in highways and

    bridges The cities, lower cost to cleandrinking water

    Soil and Water Conservation Districts, lower cost oditch maintenance

    Private marinas, lower cost o dredging Sportsmen and recreational boaters, healthier streams,

    rivers and lakes Wildlie, improved habitat

    The costThe Clarys are giving away

    the technology, giving backthe soil and the nutrientsand giving back to the envi-ronment, and giving to thegenerations to come.

    They are not applyingor a patent or a grant, andthereore have been able tomove more switly. The col-lectors are built with volun-teer labor. Donations havebeen made by community-based groups. The US Fishand Wildlie Service is a co-sponsor. A contractor hasbid to build the collectorsor $10,000 each. The costcan be brought down by pre-casting and by the quantitieso scale. Dwight estimatesthat they may be able to cutthat cost in hal.

    Compared to conventionaland controversial streamclearing, which costs about

    $1.50 per oot or $16,000 per mile, that results in strippedbanks and streambeds, and that has to be requently re-peated, the collectors are a much more cost-efcient andenvironmentally riendly solution. It is estimated thestream-collector boxes will last about 100 years, and theonly maintenance is the emptying o sediment twice a

    year. This system works with nature, leaving a small oot-print on the stream system, says Clary.

    Emily emphasized,We are not doing this to makemoney. We want to contribute, and to stay ahead o beingregulated, by doing something that is economically andenvironmentally viable.

    Going forwardThe Sandusky River Watershed Coalition & Heidelberg

    University in Tifn are working together to get a grant to

    build two more Clary In-Stream Sediment Collectors inthe Muskellunge and do research on those two as well asthe one that is already there.

    Becks Hybrids (a privately owned seed company romIndiana) bought a arm next to the OSU-connected FarmScience Review about 20 miles west o Columbus, (alongI-70) They plan to build a collector there and hope to haveresearch done on it.

    A armer rom Ottawa County is going to build a collec-tor on the stream on his arm.

    Erie County Soil and Water Conservation District rep-resentatives are exploring ways to build several collectorsin Erie County.

    The West Virginia EPA heard about the collectors andvisited to learn about them or the part o the state thatdrains into the Potomac River which drains into the Ches-apeake Bay, a distressed watershed.

    A representative rom New York State is exploring theuse o the collectors to improve the drinking water in theNew York City water reservoir.

    There have also beencalls rom Minnesotaand rom Michigan TroutFishermen.

    The Clarys welcomevisitors, and have hadgroups visit rom as araway as England. At theirfeld day, about 70 stateand local ofcials, mediaand guests attended.

    We are still giving it(the technology) away,and so are others who areinvolved. We cant do thisall by ourselves. We start-ed with just us, but needhelp to carry orward,echoed the Clarys.

    Over the years, Sweetest Day

    has evolved into a time to

    show appreciation and love

    to family and friends, as well

    as an expressionof romantic love.

    BY YANEEK SMITH

    Competing against the top team in the Toledo Area Ath-letic Conference, Danbury held its own against North-wood for 2 quarters before the Rangers pulled away fora 48-19 win.

    Northwood, which improved to 5-2 overall and 4-0 inthe TAAC with the victory, has won nine of the last 12league titles. They took a 6-0 lead with 3:18 remaining inthe rst quarter on a 16-yard-run by Dominik Bermejo.

    The Rangers, who have won ve consecutive games,pushed the lead to 20-0 at halftime behind a 41-yard runby Jacob Davenport and a 14-yard pass from Mike Vallejoto Scott Slater.

    Early in the third quarter, Seth Vargo hit James Dorkoon an 82-yard pass to cut the decit to 20-7 before North-wood responded with three touchdowns to make it 41-7.

    Vargo had a 3-yard touchdown run with 10:31 left in thefourth quarter and Jimmy Chamberlain caught a 41-yardtouchdown from Vargo nearly ve minutes later.

    We played well, said Danbury head coach Bryan Du-dash. We took their best shot and didnt back down; wedid some really good things. We had over 450 yards of to-tal offense and a lot of it was against their (starters). Last

    year it was 59-0.The defense did okay. We had a bad day with the special

    teams, many long kickoff returns (for Northwood) and

    bad punts. The main thing was the offense got rst downsand ran the clock.Vargo nished 12-of-25 passing for 219 yards and one

    touchdown and one interception and ran for a score.Chamberlain caught six passes for 124 yards and a score,

    Dorko had one re-ception for 82 yardsand a touchdownand running backCody German car-ried the ball 25times for 115 yards.

    This week, theLakers, who arenow 2-5 and 1-3 inthe league, travel toOttawa Hills (2-5,

    2-2 TAAC) to facea Green Bears teamthat is coming off a21-14 victory overCardinal Stritch.

    Ottawa Hills, aplayoff team in eachof the last two sea-sons, defeated theLakers, 45-22, last

    year, but is having adown year in 2013.

    The so-called expertsare simply misinformed!

    Newspapers are dead?Over the last 15 years, since the proliferations of the internet, paid circulationnewspapers have seen their subscriptions drop dramatically, up to 8% per year. Thatis why you hear Newspapers are dead. Thats the bad news. The good news isFREE community papers, like The Beacon, have had ZERO reduction in circulation

    and readership! Our latest audit shows that nearly 80% of the households who getThe Beacon READ The Beacon. PLUS The Beacon is read by over 2 individuals perhousehold. So, while the daily papers have suffered, the FREE communities weeklieslike The Beacon have thrived. And better yet The Beacons Web Site just gets betterand better, updated every day with new community news items. The Beacon wasHyper-Local before the term was coined!

    So, when you hear Newspapers are dead ... dont believe it! Community papers arealive and well, thank you! And our Web Sites are great as well because we dont haveto worry about losing readership to our own Web Site. All you have to do is sit backand read your weekly Beacon and stay informed about the good news happeningevery day.

    Following a tough loss to Perkins last week, Clyde knewit would have to put that setback behind itself and refocusif it were to rebound this week against Oak Harbor.

    The Fliers answered the call, scoring three touchdownsin the games rst three minutes on its way to a 42-0 defeatof Oak Harbor in Sandusky Bay Conference action Friday.

    On the games rst play from scrimmage, Clyde quar-terback Tim Hoppe hit Derek Gray out in the at beforeGray broke several tackles and raced down the sidelinesfor a 62-yard touchdown. Austin Baker, who converted onall six of his extra-point attempts, converted on the PATto make it 7-0 and the Fliers (6-1, 3-1 SBC) never lookedback.

    After pinning the Rockets (3-4, 2-2 SBC) back deep and

    forcing them to go three-and-out, the Fliers, following ashort punt, took over at Oak Harbors 24-yard-line. Onthe next play, Hoppe hit Blake Miller in the end zone tomake it 14-0 with 9:14 remaining in the opening quarter.

    Clyde scored on the ensuing kickoff when the Rockets,trying to execute a trick play, fumbled the ball and KyleMange picked it up at the 12-yard-line before running itin for another score.

    The Fliers closed out the rst-quarter scoring whenHoppe hit Colin Reiman on a 23-yard pass over themiddle on third-and-8. On the play, which nished off a7-play, 60-yard drive, Reiman caught a short pass over themiddle before eluding a couple of defenders and racing

    into the end zone.We executed pretty well early on, said Clyde head

    coach Ryan Carter. Our skill position players made
