Elevate your gardening experience

Many different materials may be used for raised garden beds, mine were built from scrap lumber. We filledthem with potting soil, compost and a small amount of native soil, raked them smooth and they were ready forplanting! photo by DeAnne Beyer

Even though the weatherdeclares spring one day andwinter the next, spring truly is onits way and will officially arriveon March 20. If in doubt, there isproof in the stores: a tantalizingselection of flower and vegetableseed packets, flower pots andpotting mix all tempt us intodreaming of sunny skies, mildtemperatures and lush, green newgrowth.

Whether you are a flowergardener, herb gardener, orvegetable gardener – or all three– raised garden beds are worthyour consideration for theupcoming growing season. Theyare a great alternative to thetraditional method of puttingseeds directly into the ground.

The benefits of raised beds arenumerous. The elevated bedswarm up sooner in the spring andallow for earlier planting. If thenative soil in your yard is heavyand holds water, raised beds allowfor much better drainage. If weedsare your nemesis, as they aremine, raised beds make it much

easier to spot and pull out thosemonsters before they get out ofcontrol. And finally, if you havedifficulty stooping over to garden,the beds can be built waist high inorder to garden while standing, orat a convenient height for thosewho garden from a wheelchair.

Wood is my favorite materialfor raised beds. My husband builtseveral beds for me out of scraplumber left over from anotherproject. Some people like to usecedar, which is great since it isnaturally rot-resistant, but it is amore costly option. I would notuse treated lumber, however,because of concerns of chemicalsleaching into the soil and beingtaken up by the plants. Cinderblocks are another option forbuilding raised beds. I have evenused a four-foot diameter plasticswimming pool to plant in. If youtry this method, be sure to drillnumerous holes in the bottom forproper drainage.

The height of the bed canrange anywhere from 6" up to 36"for ease of gardening withoutbending, as mentioned earlier.The length is totally up to you and

is only limited by space andmoney. The width of the bed iswhat is most important. A 36"wide bed would generally allowfor two rows of plants, a 48" bedfor three rows. What determinesthe proper width for you is thedistance that you can comfortablyreach in to plant, weed andharvest without stepping on andcompacting the soil within thebed.

I have always just placed mywood-framed beds directly on theground and filled them withpotting soil, compost and a bit ofnative soil. Some gardenersrecommend that chicken wire orhardware cloth be placed on theground before filling in with soilin order to prevent moles andother burrowing animals fromentering the beds.

Once the beds are filled withmaterial and raked smooth, theyare ready for planting. Be sure towater thoroughly once the seedsare snuggly settled into their bedsand enjoy the benefits of anelevated gardening experience!

Campbell's CountertopsMore than just countertops

Don’t let the name fool you;Campbell’s Countertops, Inc. isa full service kitchen and bathdealer. Whether you arereplacing a small top or you wanta complete remodel; new cabinetlayout, sink, faucet, etc., our staffis available to assist you with:design, color, and style selection,and with any details along theway. Campbell’s has beenproviding these services for over35 years to Central Ohio and thesurrounding area.

We all know wood species,door style, color and finish areimportant factors in choosingnew cabinets, but here are a fewthings we ask our customers toconsider:

How much use/abusewill my cabinets get?

Do I have rambunctiouschildren? Am I a gourmet cookor do I throw something in themicrowave and call it dinner?

Compare cabinet construction,the materials used and theirthicknesses. Check to see if thecabinet company has a lifetimewarranty.

How much effort do I want toput in them to keep them clean?

A flat panel door is muchsimpler to keep clean than say abeadboard door which has allthose grooves that dust cancollect in. A thermofoil doorresists stains and is easier to wipedown than a stained or painteddoor.

What are your future plans?Am I staying here or do I plan

to move within a few years? Ifyou are staying, that’s great; youcan go with your own style andcolor choices. If you plan to sell,you need to keep in mind whatwill sell in your market. Usuallya traditional style and neutraltones do well in our area.

What do you knowabout the cabinet dealer?

How long have they been inbusiness? Will they providereferences? Talking to previouscustomers can give you a senseof just how satisfied they are. Didthe salesperson answer yourquestions? Do you feel moreempowered to make yourdecisions, based on theinformation they have provided?Do they have a showroom? Nomatter how fancy the brochuresor websites are, there is nosubstitute for actually being ableto see paint and stain samples andview actual doors and cabinetdisplays.

After working with a goodcabinet dealer you should walkaway feeling confident in thechoices you’ve made.You cancontact Campbell'sCountertops at 740-681-1978.

Silence kills!

Lancaster, Ohio – TheLancaster City School DistrictBoard of Education votedrecently to place a bond issue onthe upcoming May ballot forconstruction of a new highschool.

The levy would seek approvalfor a 3.7 mill bond, costinghomeowners less than $11 permonth for a $100,000 homevalue. Funding for the levy willallow the district to finish itsmaster plan with the constructionof a new high school. The Stateof Ohio’s School FacilitiesCommission will fundapproximately 45% of the co-funded portion of the project.

The new building will be builton the current high schoolproperty without displacingstudents and will address threekey challenges with the currentfacility:

1. Security & Safety – thedistrict has made modifications tothe existing building to ensure thesafety of students and staff, butthese accommodations are notequal to the modern-day securitymeasures a new school provides.Currently, high school studentsuse three separate buildings in

two locations. Having allprograms in one building allowsus to have secure entrances inaddition to secure windows andan upgraded camera system.

2. Technology – thecurrent infrastructure of thebuilding is not capable ofsustaining today’s educationalneeds. For example, someclassrooms have just twoelectrical outlets, which is simplyinadequate for the amount oftechnology used in classroomstoday. Also, modern classroomswill be equipped with interactivetouch screens and the buildingwill be designed for robustwireless access throughout thebuilding.

3.

Side Effects

I recently finished reading abook entitled, “Side Effects” TheHidden Agenda of thePharmaceutical Drug Cartel”,by Ron Gilbert. It’s eye-openingto say the least! It’s prudent tounderstand that as a chiropracticphysician, I do not prescribepharmaceuticals. I also do notever tell anybody to quit takingpharmaceuticals. I am veryblessed that many people,through appropriate treatment,become healthier and through thepermission of the prescribingphysician, are able to reduce theamount of medication that theytake. However, it still remains theindividual’s decision to take ornot take any pharmaceutical.With 95% of all my patientstypically taking one or morepharmaceuticals on a daily basis,I review what pharmaceuticals apatient is taking, and I look forpotential interactions and/or sideeffects that may be influencingtheir present condition.

I am truly fascinated by thenumber of individuals thatbelieve a drug/pharmaceutical isan answer to life’s problems!Actually, how does a societyeven get to that point? Manyindividuals believe that throughpharmaceuticals, we can solvealmost all of our difficulties.

Most, soon discover that itdoesn’t solve them. I think manyreaders would agree that whenwe get sick, many individualsthink a drug will help to makeeverything fine again. Sooner orlater we come to believe, by thebombardment of suggestiveadvertising on TV and inmagazines and newspapers-sometimes subtle and sometimeswith force, that a pharmaceuticalwill take care of even ouremotional duress. When we havedisagreements with individuals,there is a drug that will fix that,too. Needless to say-for many,the responsibility of their ownpersonal health has been shiftedto that of a namedpharmaceutical, and for manyindividuals-multiplepharmaceuticals.

Certainly with an ever-increasing population takingprescribed pharmaceuticals on aday in and day out basis, thepharmaceutical industry is theobvious, big winner. They arealready year in and year out, oneof the top moneymakers in theUnited States. It is wellestablished that, they use theirmoney to lobby in order to gaincontrol over governments, sports,anti-aging movements, olderindividuals, younger individuals,

and even many social activities.According to a Report of the

American Medical Association(AMA), more than 100,000Americans die every year fromprescription drugs and over-the-counter medicines. Currently,drug reactions are the world’s 4thmajor killer on a yearly basis.The true side effects of theoveruse of drugs cannotspecifically be calculated. It isquite conceivable that a numberof true side effects of theinteraction of drugs is acontributor to many individual’shealth-related concerns on asymptomatic basis.

So what I would like you asreaders to be appreciative of isthat there are more opportunitiestoday than ever before to learnabout your health and to takebetter care of yourself. It is alsomore important than ever toknow about the medications thatyou take. If you take severaldifferent medications, see morethan one doctor, or have certainhealth conditions, you and yourdoctors need to be aware of allthe medicines/pharmaceuticalsthat you take. Doing so will helpyou to avoid potential problemssuch as drug interactions/side-effects.

Drug interactions may make

your drug less effective, maycause unexpected side effects, orincrease the action of a particulardrug. As noted, many druginteractions can even be harmfulto you. Reading the label everytime you use a nonprescription orprescription drug and taking thetime to learn about druginteractions may be critical toyour future health. You canreduce the risk of potentiallyharmful drug interactions andside effects with a little bit ofknowledge and common sense.Drug interactions fall into 3broad categories:

Drug-drug interactions occurwhen 2 or more drugs react witheach other. This drug-druginteraction may cause you toexperience an unexpected sideeffect. For example, mixing adrug you take to help you sleep (asedative) and a drug you take forallergies (an antihistamine) canslow reactions and make drivingthe car operating machinerydangerous.

Drug-food/beverageinteractions result from drugsreacting with foods or beverages.For example, mixing alcoholwith some drugs may cause youto feel tired or slow your actions.

Drug-condition interactionsmay occur when an existingmedical condition makes certaindrugs potentially harmful. Forexample, if you have high bloodpressure you could experience anunwanted reaction if you take anasal decongestant.

Over-the-counter (OTC) druglabels contain information aboutingredients, uses, warnings anddirections that is important toread and understand. The labelalso includes importantinformation about possible druginteractions. Further, drug labelsmay change as new informationbecomes known. That’s why it isespecially important to read thelabel every time you use a drug.

One of the most importantaspects in learning about druginteractions is to talk to yourprescribing doctor or thepharmacist about the drugs youtake. When your doctorprescribes a new drug, discuss allOTC and prescription drugs,dietary supplements, botanicals,and herbals you take, as well asthe food you eat. Make sure youask your pharmacist for thepackage insert for eachprescription drug you take. The

package answer provides moreinformation about potential druginteractions. More importantlyread that insert! Take the self-responsibility of your present andfuture health by becoming aninformed consumer.

Before taking a drug, ask yourdoctor or pharmacist thefollowing questions: “Can I takethis pharmaceutical with otherdrugs? Should I avoid certainfoods, beverages or otherproducts? What are possible druginteractions/ signs I should knowabout? How will the drug work inmy body? Is there moreinformation available about thedrug or my condition?” It isimperative that you know how totake pharmaceutical safely andresponsibly. Remember, the druglabel will tell you: what the drugis used for, how to take the drug,and how to reduce the risk ofdrug interactions and unwantedside effects.

If you still have questionsafter reading the drug productlabel, feel free to ask your doctoror pharmacist for moreinformation. Doing so willcertainly help you avoid thepossibility of various side effectsand/or allergic reactions. Wehave to presume that thehealthcare practitioners that doprescribe pharmaceuticals and/ordispense them have the intent ofthem not hurting us, but helpingus reduce our symptoms.However, we remain responsiblefor taking them and should do sowith the greatest and utmost care.

Start by evaluating your lawn.Look for bald spots where grasshas grown sparsely and needsreseeding, or uneven areas thatmay need to be filled and leveled.

Before you take steps to correctany problems, you’ll need a cleanslate. Clear the yard of any leaves,rocks or sticks that may haveaccumulated then cut the grass asshort as you can. Use a thatchingrake to remove dead roots andgrass. Break up the soil in barespots to create an environment thatwill be hospitable to new seed.Add lawn soil to level the surface.

You’ll also need to apply anherbicide to treat weed-infested

areas. Allow the weed killer towork for about a week then rakeagain to remove dead weeds.

Then you’re ready to over-seedor spot seed, depending on yourlawn’s needs. Your climate willdetermine the best grass variety foryour yard.

Since her first film role in1940, Terry Moore has appearedon the Big Screen in each of thesubsequent eight decades.Recently celebrating her 90thbirthday, the actress plays a leadrole in the Vladislav Kozlov-directed period drama about silentfilm superstar Rudolph Valentino- Hollywood's first male sexsymbol.

"The film's called 'Silent Life'and I had 90 pages of dialog tolearn," said Ms. Moore from herhome in Santa Monica. "I feel it'sone of the best roles I've ever had."

Following Valentino's passingin 1926, a veiled woman whobecame known as "The Lady inBlack" visited the actor's graveeach year, depositing a red rose.

Over the years, the ritual wascopied by other women andMoore's character is anamalgamation of these mysteriouscrypt callers.

To prepare for the role, Mooresays she and the director visitedSequoia National Park to rehearse.

"Going to Sequoia andworking among those wonderfulold trees was a brilliant idea," sherecalled. "The peaceful, quietenvironment was perfect to bringout the range of emotions I had todevelop and deliver in the film."

Director Kozlov was quiteimpressed with the veteranactress.

"It was not easy to do thecasting for this part because Iwanted someone who really was

in the industry from Hollywood'sGolden Era," he explained."When I met Terry, I knew shewas the one. She plays the leadpart in the film as the protagonistand her character holds the arc ofthe story."

Despite tough workingconditions including threebrutally hot summer weeks duringfilming, Kozlov says Moore was"a trooper."

"She was doing everything -dancing, crying, laughing, gettingangry, telling jokes and storiesand didn't complain once. She hasan incredible will, stamina, and avery sharp mind. When Terrywasn't filming she would come onthe set just to cheer me up andwas very attentive to my needs as

a director, helping me shape hercharacter."

Moore says working withKozlov reminded her of anotherfilm, some 60 years earlier.

"When I worked with(director) Elia Kazan in (1953's)'Man on a Tightrope' I felt I coulddo anything - if Kazan had toldme to jump off a roof andwouldn't get hurt, I would havedone it!" she recalled. "That's howmuch I trusted him. I felt the sameabout Vlad in 'Silent Life' becausehe brought out that same level ofconfidence in me."

Scenes depicting Valentino'smausoleum where filmed at theHollywood Forever Cemetery, atthe star's actual tomb, whichsparked another film flashbackfor Moore from the same period.

"In one of the scenes, I'mtalking to Valentino in my mindand from the corner of my eye Icould see Tyrone Power's grave!"she said. Moore and Powerstarred in 1953's "King of theKhyber Rifles."

"Ty was the kindest actor Iever knew and one of the easiestactors I ever worked with," shesaid. "It gave me chills to see itwhile filming because Iremembered he once told me 'If Idie tomorrow, I want two things:to die on set and to have a son.'He did both."

Power suffered a heart attackduring a dueling scene with co-star George Sanders while filming"Solomon and Sheba" in 1958and died soon after (his sceneswere later re-shot with YulBrynner playing Power'sSolomon role). Power's wife gavebirth to Tyrone Power IV twomonths later.

In 2015, both Moore and theyounger Power appeared in thehorror film, "Mansion of Blood."

"Ty had given me a book abouthis family history and I gave it tohis son which he was pleased tohave," said Moore. "It's sowonderful he's followed in hisfather's footsteps."

Produced by Yuri Ponomarevalong with writer/directorKozlov, "Silent Life" is currentlyin the final post-productionstages. Moore and the director(who also plays Valentino) hopetheir film will have its worldpremiere at this year's VeniceFilm Festival followed bypossible Oscar consideration nextyear.

Moore is no stranger to theAcademy Awards and was a BestSupporting Actress nominee for1952's "Come Back, LittleSheba."

"I went to the ceremony withRobert Wagner who's still one ofmy best friends from the olddays," she said. "I had noexpectation of winning, so canhonestly say I was notdisappointed when my darlingfriend Gloria Grahame won. If Iget another (nomination) I'vepromised to take Bob with meagain!"

Moore began her career inradio and later became a prolificactress on stage, screen andtelevision (seewww.terrymoore.com) and wasthrilled when her agentapproached her about the role in"Silent Life."

"It was a challenging part, fullof emotions, but I had to do it,"she says. "I started acting when Iwas 10 years old. It's somarvelous to think I'm stillworking."

(Family Features) Bringinghome a puppy or kitten can leadto a lot of excitement. However,discussing issues that may ariseand preparing in advance for anew pet’s arrival can help makefor a smooth transition.

Consider these tips from thepet experts at PetSmart Charitiesto help make your new pet’s ad-justment to its forever home aresounding success.

Know that pet parenting is alifetime commitment. That oh-

so-sweet puppy or kitten stageonly lasts so long, so be sure thatyou’re prepared to give a lifetimeof loving care. Nurturing thebond you create during the earlymonths can create a foundationfor lifelong companionship.

Consider adoption first.There are literally thousands ofanimals of all breeds and ageslooking for loving homes. Con-sider adopting a pet that needs ahome from a local shelter oradoption event.

“When you consider an optionlike adoption, you can make sureone less dog or cat is living in ashelter while also providing thegift of unconditional love to afurry friend in need,” said DavidHaworth, DVM, Ph.D., presidentof PetSmart Charities, whichhelps find forever homes andfamilies for more than 500,000shelter pets each year. “As a wayto make adoption more accessi-ble, we work with local adoptionpartners to bring adoptable petsinto PetSmart stores each andevery day, and especially duringour National Adoption Week-ends, which take place in storesnationwide.”

Select an appropriate pet.Integrating a pet into your house-hold, especially for a first-timepet owner, can take some work.It’s important to consider factorslike how often you travel, wheth-er your work schedule will allowa visit home during the day for apotty-training puppy and ifyou’re willing to provide neces-sary care, such as daily brushingfor a long-haired animal. Alsoconsider whether you truly wanta puppy or a kitten; an adult petoffers numerous benefits, such aspotentially being house-trainedalready and more resilient forplay with small kids.

Provide structure for yourpet. In a new family, a pet willoften look for where he or she fitsin and try to understand the rulesof the house. Dogs, especially,crave routine, boundaries andrules. Cats like to know what toexpect, too. When pets don’t un-derstand, they can feel uncertainand some pets might hide untilthey feel more comfortable. Sen-sible rules can help pets feel se-cure in their new environments.Being consistent with training,helping pets understand what be-havior you want and providing asolid routine can help them feelcomfortable and confident.

Prepare for pet parenting.The sweet kisses and cuddles arefun, but a new pet requires somepreparation. Stock up on itemslike age-appropriate food andtoys. Look into training classesand find a veterinarian you trustfor regular checkups. Also taketime to pet-proof your home, re-moving items that may pose ahealth threat or create tempta-tions for undesirable behaviors.

In a recent article I sharedsome information about AliceWilson Peters, buried atStonewall Cemetery. She is thedaughter of Nathaniel Wilsonwho immigrated to the OhioTerritory with his father andfamily in 1798. They first settledin Hocking Township. The veryfamous unusually constructedstone wall around the familycemetery he had built has alwaysinterested me. Particularly who isnot buried there, even though thefather planned an area for eachchild. The first Nathaniel Wilsonplanned a family cemetery on hisland and was ready to have itsurveyed by local Samuel andEmanuel Carpenter when he diedin 1814. His son Nathaniel lll, orjunior here, had it done by 1816.It was in a duodecagon shapewhich the later stone wall wouldbe. The next year Nathaniel’s son,6 year old Harvey was killed by afalling tree and was laid to rest inthe area chosen. His father deededthis land to the President of theUnited States, James Madison, in1817, supposedly for safety.Hence the nickname, thePresident’s Cemetery. Today it ispart of the Fairfield County ParkSystem.

Nathaniel lll had married AliceMateer in 1796 in Pennsylvaniaand they had 6 children. Alice, theoldest we wrote about hadmarried into a neighboring familyof the Peters, and died shortlyafter bearing her seventh childwho also died and is buried in herquarter which had been set it asidefor her family in her father’s will.But the second buried after littleHarvey was his young sister PollyMatier Wilson who died in 1824and was buried in the center 2 footwide strip south of Harvey; shejust 23 years old. ThenNathaniel’s son Gustin who willlive on the home place off of Rt.22 today, and his wife lost a sonNoble in 1836. He is buried in thecenter strip also south of thecenter. They will lose anotherinfant daughter buried in hissouthwest quarter father hadplanned for that family, this afterthe wall was started in 1838.Gustin did not use it again.

But just before the wall startedanother infant in the family, aboy, was buried in 1837 in thecenter strip, that of daughterMandana Wilson Gallagher. Thisbrings us to the two daughterswho then did not choose to use thecemetery for themselves or anyother family member. The familyof Nathaniel lll and wife Aliceconsisted of Alice Peters, born in1798, Polly 1801, Mandana 1803,Gustin 1806, Zillah 1809, andHarvey 1811.

Mandana we have foundmarried Joel Gallagher. His sisterhad married Robinson Peters,older brother of the two siblingswho married Wilson girls.Robinson and his wife ownedland at the end of Crumley andnear the Wilson property. We findJoel’s parents buried at the oldHaas-Peters Cemetery hidden in

the trees west of Amanda-Northern just south of 188. Joelput up stones for his fatherThomas Glaucer Gallagher (1775-1861)) and mother, Mary Zell(1778-1867). Father was an earlysettler in Amanda Township, sowe assume Joel was raised there.Mandana and Joel lived on thisland mentioned near the homeWilson place, one source said onthe home farm, but that belongedto son Gustin.

In the 1875 Everts Atlas of thecounty their land was north ofGustin’s home land, just north ofthe cemetery. It was in Section 10that included Becks Knob, andpart in Section 15, and was allhomesteaded by the firstNathaniel, her grandfather. Their96 acre farm included land ofLandmark today and north, someJoos-Claypool and others’ landtoday. Joel’s brother-in-lawRobinson Peters was to the east,as we said, all at Crumley Road’send. That road starts just oppositeStonewall Cemetery Road today.Next door west of Joel andMandana was land of UncleRobert Wilson and then his son ofsame name and next to the westwas Issac Reese. Eventually thesethree farms became Joos farms.

Mandana and Joel married in1836 had other children besidesthe baby buried in the family plot,but they chose not to ever use herquarter, the northeast, set aside forher by her father. Father planneda 10 foot strip in the middle of the4 quarters and the other earlygraves as well as his own and hiswife are in the area. To mysurprise and interest I found Joeland Mandana buried in GreenMound Cemetery just west onCrumley, a cemetery I work with.Mandana’s stone reads, wife ofJoel, born 1803 and died 1883,aged 80 y 4 d. Joel’s reads, JoelM, 1809 and 1881, aged 71 y 10m 3 d. With them is daughtersEmily Ellen, 1842-1918, andIsabelle M, wife of David Miller,who died in 1892, aged 53 y.Somewhere in the past I hadfound a Jennie Rose, 1840-1908.Maybe someone out there canhelp explain my find. Then in1879, the parents sold some landto David and Isabella Miller.There may have been a separationof that marriage or David wasgone, and a son Martin Millerhelped with more sales after

mother’s death.. When writing onthe Joos family, it was noted thatFrank Joos and brothers boughtland from Isabella Miller, or theestate, in Section 10 and some in15 in 1896. A note of interest, in1877, Miller’s daughter, Jennie D.married Dr. Charles E. Reese, sonof Isaac Reese, who owned landwest on Crumley, later Joos land,and the Wolfinger land today.This may be our Jennie above. Dr.Reese practiced in Lancaster andwas physician to the Boy’sIndustrial School for severalyears.

Mandana’s younger sister,Zillah Wilson, born in 1808,married Stevenson Peters, brotherof Nathan who had married sisterAlice. She died in 1883 and alsochoose not to use the quarter setaside for her by her father.Stevenson was the sixth child ofthe 13 children of Samuel andMary Peters, born in Manchester,Maryland before moving to Ohiowhen he was 7. He learned thetrade of shoemaking as all thePeters boys had to learn a trade,but spent his life farming nearEast Ringgold, Pickaway County.He and Zillah were married in1887 and had 6 children, two wereunmarried. Son Manton had 4children, Catherine Reinhold hadone child, Norman had 3 children,and Emeline Wilkerson had 2children. When the Peters familybook was written in the 1930’s,there were 69 direct descendants.It was at their house theremarkable Peters FamilyReunion was held with 11 of theoriginal 13 children, seated in theorder of their ages together for thefirst time in 50 years. Henry, theeldest, was 86, and the youngestin his 65th year. The combinedages were 831 years. Stevensondied in his 83rd year and is buriedwith Zillah at Reber HillCemetery, Walnut Township,Pickaway County. He died inJanuary of 1887 and she in Aprilof 1887. She was the last of ourStonewall Cemetery builder’schildren to die. I keep findingsome new information or just feelthe need to repeat some of thestories of this unusual cemetery.

PUBLISHER’S NOTICE:

Continues on page 15

COLUMBUS, OH – TheOhio Department of Natural Re-sources (ODNR) is pleased toannounce the expansion of theODNR Division of Forestry’sForest Fire Protection Area. Theexpanded area includes all partsof the following counties: Ad-ams, Ashland, Ashtabula, Ath-ens, Belmont, Brown, Carroll,Clermont, Columbiana, Coshoc-ton, Fairfield, Fulton, Gallia,Geauga, Guernsey, Harrison,Henry, Highland, Hocking, Hol-mes, Jackson, Jefferson, Law-rence, Licking, Lucas, Knox,Meigs, Mahoning, Monroe,Morgan, Muskingum, Noble,Perry, Pike, Portage, Richland,Ross, Scioto, Stark, Trumbull,Tuscarawas, Vinton and Wash-ington.

“The expanded wildfire pro-tection area contains approxi-mately 580 fire departments, asignificant increase from ap-proximately 325 fire depart-ments contained in theprotection area prior to the ex-pansion,” said Greg Guess, dep-uty chief and wildfire programcoordinator for the ODNR Divi-sion of Forestry. “The ODNRDivision of Forestry is lookingforward to partnering with morerural fire departments to increasewildfire protection efforts intheir communities.”

The previous wildfire protec-tion area had been determined in

the 1970s. Since then, throughsuccessful forest managementactivities, forest cover in Ohiohas increased, which also in-creased the need to expand thewildfire protection area. This ex-pansion will also provide morerural fire departments with theability to call on ODNR Divisionof Forestry personnel and assis-tance when wildland fires do oc-cur in their areas.

The ODNR Division of For-estry understands the very im-portant public safety servicesthat Ohio’s rural fire depart-ments provide and will strive tohelp build the capacity of the firedepartments across the wildfireprotection area. All fire depart-ments within the wildfire protec-tion area have the opportunity toestablish a cooperative partner-ship with the ODNR Division ofForestry, and in doing so maybecome eligible for grants,equipment assistance programs,wildfire training, wildfire pre-vention assistance and mutualaid for wildfire suppression.

The ODNR Division of Forestry works topromote the wise use and sustainable manage-ment of Ohio’s public and private woodlands.To learn more about Ohio’s woodlands and thefire management program, visitforestry.ohiodnr.gov.

ODNR ensures a balance between wiseuse and protection of our natural resources forthe benefit of all. Visit the ODNR website atohiodnr.gov.
