Brown’s Farm plan<br />
moving forward<br />
By Andrea Cordle<br />
<strong>Southwest</strong> Editor<br />
The proposal has been kicked down the<br />
road for more than a year but now, it’s<br />
back on the schedule.<br />
At the <strong>July</strong> 15 meeting, Grove City<br />
Council postponed two pieces of legislation<br />
pertaining to the Brown’s Farm redevelopment<br />
plan, located near Orders Road and<br />
Haughn Road. The first piece of legislation<br />
was the development plan that would<br />
allow Wilcox Communities to build 110 cottages,<br />
or condominiums, on the east side of<br />
Haughn Road and more than 200 apart-<br />

Community Winds strike the perfect note<br />
By Dedra Cordle<br />
Staff Writer<br />
While standing atop a hill in<br />
<strong>Southwest</strong>ern Pennsylvania, overlooking<br />
a vast green space painted with wildflowers,<br />
Rich Hart could not help but to<br />
reflect on the sight. Directly before him<br />
was hallowed ground, the place where 40<br />
passengers and crew of United Flight 93<br />
tried to wrest control of a hijacked plane<br />
15 years prior. There was no visible scarring<br />
on the rural field where the plane<br />
crashed down that September day but the<br />
reverberations of their actions could be<br />
still felt throughout the silent crowd.<br />
“It was a very solemn, sacred experience,”<br />
said Hart, a native of Grove City.<br />
As he recalled the memories of that<br />
day, thinking of all the lives that were<br />
lost, his mind drifted to a memorial concert<br />
he and his fellow members of the<br />
Grove City Community Winds were<br />
scheduled to perform later that afternoon.<br />
It was just a few months earlier when<br />
the concert band was given an invitation<br />
to perform at the Flight 93 National<br />
Memorial in Somerset County. Not only<br />
was this invitation significant as they<br />
were the first non-local community band<br />
asked to play there, but they would also<br />
be playing ‘Flight of Valor,’ an original<br />
arrangement from Winds director, James<br />
Swearingen, who specifically created it to<br />
honor of those brave men and women.<br />
After the emotional concert, which was<br />
witnessed by a community still healing<br />
from the horrific events, Hart looked<br />
around at his bandmates and felt humbled<br />
by the experience. He said he<br />
couldn’t believe they had been gifted this<br />
experience, this opportunity to perform at<br />
a sacred place. As he did that morning, he<br />
reflected. He reflected on the formation of<br />
the band, his once held belief that it<br />
wouldn’t work out. He reflected on the<br />
impact the band has had on the community<br />
and on each other. He reflected on<br />
the tears that were shed, the souls they<br />
have touched. And he reflected on the fact<br />
that they have come to be known as one<br />
of the best representatives of central<br />
Ohio.<br />
It was nearly 20 years ago when Hart<br />
answered a phone call that would change<br />
his life. On the other end was an old<br />
acquaintance who asked if he would be<br />
willing to play in a newly formed community<br />
band.<br />
“At that point in my life, I wasn’t playing<br />
music as much as I wanted to,” said<br />
the 1973 graduate of Grove City High<br />
School. “It wasn’t what I majored in when<br />
I was at Ohio State and it wasn’t what I<br />
was doing professionally but ever since I<br />
was in high school, music has been everything<br />
to me. I knew immediately I want-<br />

ed to do this.”<br />
With roughly 16 members — a majority comprised of<br />
trumpet, trombone, clarinet and saxophone players —<br />
they knew they were not going to sound exactly as they<br />
wanted to at first.<br />
“While some of them were professional musicians,<br />
there were others who were still getting back into the<br />
thick of things,” said the trumpet player. “We had<br />
some people who didn’t play their instruments real<br />
loud and it was always covered up by those who could.<br />
It was an interesting first couple weeks, to be sure.”<br />
It was several months into their existence when a<br />
member contacted Swearingen, a former band director<br />
at Grove City High School who is world renowned as a<br />
performer, composer and educator, to gauge his interest<br />
in being their director. Hart thought it highly<br />
unlikely he would say yes to the proposal; Swearingen<br />
thought just the opposite.<br />
“I told them I would commit to being the director for<br />
five years and that was it,” Swearingen said with a<br />
laugh. “Now here we are, more than a decade after<br />
those first five years and I’m still here, still enjoying<br />
it.”<br />
He said the real selling point in taking the new venture<br />
was his love for the city and the people in it.<br />
“I had the feeling of wanting to contribute to this<br />
great community and this desire to make things even<br />
better.”<br />
His first order of business was to bulk up the numbers<br />
by recruiting local talent, most of whom were<br />
either professional musicians or current and retired<br />
band directors. He even snagged saxophone player Jim<br />
Staten, a former Airman of Note who is credited with<br />
improving the music program within the South-<br />
Western City Schools District.<br />
Shortly thereafter, the Community Winds was 60-<br />
strong and garnering a reputation in the music community<br />
for their precision. They even gained a dedicated<br />
group of local fans, notable among those are Cindy<br />
Kazalia and Julie Oyster.<br />
Kazalia said she had been listening to the concert<br />
band since their inception, drawn in by their exceptional<br />
talent and other-worldly sound.<br />
“They always have a way to impact my soul,” said<br />
the long-time resident of Grove City. “Every time I<br />
leave one of their concerts, their performance just<br />
stays with me for a long time.”<br />
For Oyster, who is the daughter of Staten, it is the<br />
combination of past, present and future displayed in<br />
the ensemble that touches her the most. She said a<br />
majority of the elders are known throughout the community<br />
for their dedication to music education and<br />
excellence, while the younger generation are known<br />
for their up-and-coming talents.<br />
She said it also doesn’t hurt that their combined<br />
experience comes together beautifully during each performance.<br />
“I would describe their sound as pure and professional,”<br />
said Oyster.<br />
While the local fans may have known about these<br />
hidden gems, they slowly started to receive more<br />
attention outside of the city, and then eventually<br />
beyond the state.<br />
In addition to performing at local churches, venues<br />
and festivals, the Community Winds were invited to<br />
perform at the Ohio Music Educators Association<br />
State Convention in 2012, then the World War II<br />
Memorial in Washington D.C. that same year. In 2016,<br />
they were invited to perform at the Flight 93 National<br />
Memorial and then this summer were invited back to<br />
the WWII Memorial.<br />
Swearingen said they did not have out-of-state travel<br />
plans in mind when the concert band was formed,<br />
but he called the recognition a great honor and a true<br />
reflection of the quality musicians and of the people in<br />
the city itself.<br />
“We wouldn’t be able to continue to perform at such<br />
a high quality without the support of this great community,”<br />
he said, praising the city and the Grove City<br />
Community Club who helped provide a portion of the<br />
funding for the second D.C. trip.<br />
As for Hart, he said he always has to lightly pinch<br />
himself whenever they perform as a reminder of how<br />
far they have come. He said he knows with the<br />
immense love his bandmates have for music, each<br />
other, and this community, they will continue to live<br />
on well into the future.

ment units on the west side of Haughn<br />
Road. The housing plan would cater to<br />
senior citizens and empty nesters. The second<br />
piece of legislation discussed was a tax<br />
increment financing (TIF) agreement with<br />
the developer.<br />
Both items were postponed for council to<br />
consider at its Aug. 5 meeting.<br />
Jonathan Wilcox, of Wilcox<br />
Communities, had requested the delay so<br />
he and city officials could address the traffic<br />
concerns brought forth by residents who<br />
live along Orders Road. Some of the area<br />
residents asked that the city address the<br />
safety concerns along Orders Road before<br />
they allow a large complex to be built.<br />
Resident David Hellard reported witnessing<br />
three traffic fatalities near his<br />
home along Orders Road. Last year, he<br />
spoke out against the project saying it<br />
offered no comprehensive traffic plan for<br />
the road.<br />
The legislation on the TIF agreement<br />
would address some infrastructure needs,<br />
according to the ordinance.<br />
Tax increment financing agreements<br />
subsidize companies by refunding or<br />
diverting a portion of their taxes to help<br />
finance development or pay for infrastructure<br />
improvements near the development<br />
area. According to the legislation, the<br />
exemption may be for up to 100 percent for<br />
up to 30 years. The public infrastructure<br />
improvements may include improvements<br />
to public roads and water and sewer lines.<br />
Mid-Ohio Indie Author Book Expo<br />
The Mid-Ohio Indie Author Book Expo will be held from 3 to 7<br />
p.m. Aug. 10 at the Vaughn Hairston YMCA in Urbancrest. The<br />
event allows book lovers to discover new authors and purchase<br />
singed copies of books.<br />
The event started three years ago by local author Alicia<br />
Wiggins to showcase the work of self-published authors. The event<br />
will feature up to 40 authors from Ohio and surrounding states.<br />
Admission is free. For more information, visit www.midohioindies.com.<br />
Gathering at Gantz<br />
Gantz Gardens, at 2255 Home Road in<br />
Grove City, will be the setting for Gathering<br />
at Gantz, an open house hosted by Grove<br />
City Arts Council. The council invites the<br />
public to enjoy hot dogs while watching art<br />
demonstrations that include painting, photography<br />
and coloring activities for children.<br />
The event is an opportunity for the<br />
public to meet GCAC members and learn<br />
more about the council’s mission. The event<br />
will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. Aug. 25 in the<br />
large shelter house. There is no cost to<br />
attend.<br />
“I believe the only way we’re going to get<br />
repairs to Orders Road and Haughn Road<br />
is through a TIF,” said Grove City councilman<br />
Roby Schottke.<br />
The legislation is not specific as to what<br />
infrastructure improvements would be<br />
addressed through TIF funds. It lays out<br />
where the money could be used. Once the<br />
funds start to come in, the funding for road<br />
and/or sewer improvements would come<br />
before city council.<br />
According to Grove City Mayor Richard<br />
“Ike” Stage, some of the intended projects<br />
could include a safer Orders Road with<br />
shoulders, a bike path and a road that goes<br />
to the Grove City YMCA, instead of a lane.<br />
“Orders Road is a problem,” said Stage.<br />
“The only way to get that resolved is if we<br />
have major funding. We have brought forth<br />
the best package for our community.”<br />
There was also discussion about the city<br />
and developer working together to build a<br />
public dog park near Fryer Park.<br />
According to Wilcox, there were plans to<br />
around the southwest<br />
include a small, private dog park for residents<br />
in the senior complex. Councilman<br />
Ted Berry suggested making a larger, public<br />
dog park.<br />
“If you’re already going to put money<br />
into it, why not make it a public park?”<br />
asked the councilman.<br />
Wilcox thought it was a good idea and<br />
said he would review the mechanics and<br />
the project cost. If this is something city<br />
leaders and the developer want to explore,<br />
Wilcox would likely cover the initial cost to<br />
build the public dog park but would be<br />
reimbursed under the TIF agreement.<br />
Not all city leaders were sold on the<br />
idea.<br />
“We don’t know if this is something the<br />
public wants,” said councilman Steve<br />
Robinette.<br />
A public dog park is currently not part of<br />
the legislation included in the Brown’s<br />
Farm development plan or TIF agreement.<br />

Government Focus<br />
By Dedra Cordle<br />
Staff Writer<br />
Within the past five years, the village of<br />
Urbancrest council has debated and<br />
approved ordinances related to nuisance<br />
felines and canines, as well as the field<br />
dressing of deer in public spaces. Now,<br />
farm animals could be added to that list.<br />
At the <strong>July</strong> meeting, councilwoman<br />
Deborah Larkins-Jackson questioned<br />
whether the raising of chickens, hens or<br />
roosters was permissible in the village as<br />
she heard their unmistakable call early one<br />
morning.<br />
“Are they allowed to be here?” she<br />
asked.<br />
The answer, said code enforcement officer<br />
Randall Bogue, was ‘possibly.’<br />
“Since this issue has been raised, I have<br />
been going through the village code extensively<br />
and have not seen anything pertaining<br />
to farm animals being allowed or disallowed<br />
in the village.<br />
“I’m still going through all of the code<br />
from years past where it could be found,<br />
but so far I have been unable to locate anything<br />
concrete.”<br />
Larkins-Jackson said in addition to<br />
hearing the noise herself, she has recently<br />
been fielding complaints from residents<br />
who have reported the same thing.<br />
She said she doesn’t necessarily mind<br />
residents raising a chicken or two in the<br />
village for their eggs - provided they are<br />
properly secured and not running throughout<br />
the village — but is wary about the raising<br />
of hens.<br />

“If I know one thing, it’s if there are<br />
hens around there are going to be roosters,”<br />
she said.<br />
Bogue said that in addition to researching<br />
past ordinances, he is going to consult<br />
with the leadership at Jackson Township<br />
and the city of Grove City for their input.<br />
“If either of those entities allow (residents<br />
to raise chickens and hens), we<br />
wouldn’t have much of a case against it,” he<br />
said.<br />
He added that if they do not, the village<br />
council will have to debate the issue if residents<br />
deem it too much of a nuisance.<br />
In other news, the installation of the<br />
speed capturing sign was once again<br />

Thimmes, there were several parts on back<br />

On <strong>July</strong> 15, the Central Ohio Transit<br />
Authority (COTA) launched COTA Plus, an<br />
on-demand microtransit that will provide<br />
first/last mile service in partnership with<br />
Grove City.<br />
The mobility option will operate as a<br />
one-year pilot and will offer customers with<br />
point-to-point service at an affordable fare,<br />
and connect COTA riders to fixed route service<br />
for free.<br />
COTA Plus is an on-demand, app-based<br />
ride share service that can book multiple<br />
passengers heading in the same direction<br />
into a shared vehicle. Referred to in the<br />
industry as microtransit on-demand,<br />
COTA Plus operates either as a point-topoint<br />
ride share service or as a connection<br />
to or from a COTA bus line. Operators are<br />
COTA employees, who receive training and<br />
are subject to background checks upon hiring.<br />
“There is increased demand for greater<br />
mobility options across many of our central<br />
Ohio communities, including Grove City,”<br />
said Joanna Pinkerton, president/CEO of<br />
COTA. “COTA Plus was designed with<br />
input from multiple stakeholders, including<br />
the city and area businesses, who have<br />
identified mobility challenges as a barrier<br />
to employment, healthcare, and education.<br />

Back - to - School<br />
Easing first day jitters<br />
The first day of school is one of the most<br />
exciting days of the year –but it can also<br />
be one of the most stressful for both children<br />
and parents.<br />
The freedom (and chaos and boredom) of<br />
the summer is over, and new friends (and<br />
teachers and challenges) await. But an<br />
annual family tradition can soothe everyone’s<br />
nerves by making the big day feel<br />
more familiar and predictable. Here are<br />
some rituals that may work for you and<br />
your family – but, of course, feel free to<br />
invent your own.<br />
• Pack a note with your child’s lunch<br />
telling him how proud you are of him or, if<br />
your child is older, pack a comic strip<br />
clipped from the Sunday paper or a joke he<br />
can share with his friends.<br />
• Take a picture of your child (or children),<br />
wearing that first day of school outfit,<br />
in the same spot every year. Store the<br />
photographs in a special album so you and<br />
your family can look back on how your kids<br />
have grown up over the years.<br />
• Make a welcome home treat. Your<br />
child might be too nervous for a special<br />
breakfast on the first day, but she’ll love<br />
coming home to her favorite snack, which<br />
she can eat while she tells you all about her<br />
day.<br />
• Take your child shopping for school<br />
supplies before the big day. Nothing makes<br />
a child feel more prepared for and excited<br />
about starting school than a fresh batch of<br />
pencils and new folders and binders.<br />
• Visit the school the day before classes<br />
start. You’ll have a chance to walk around<br />
the classroom without dozens of children<br />
racing around, and you’ll probably be able<br />
to talk with teachers for a few minutes.<br />
• Invite some children in your child’s<br />
class over before school starts. Include<br />
some of his friends and someone who’s new<br />
to the area. Not only will your child see<br />
some familiar faces on the first day, but<br />
she’ll also have a sense of purpose as she<br />
helps the new kid get adjusted.<br />

Tips for grabbing the best deals on school clothes<br />
Children and parents often look forward<br />
to the dawn of a new school year. But<br />
before the first homeroom session can take<br />
place, parents may need to take their students<br />
clothes shopping.<br />
According to a 2018 survey by Deloitte,<br />
parents spend an average of $510 per<br />
household on apparel, school supplies, electronic<br />
gadgets, and other items for their<br />
kids’ return to school. The back-to-school<br />
season runs from <strong>July</strong> through September,<br />
during which American households alone<br />
spend $27.6 billion, which is second only to<br />
the holiday season in regard to the most<br />

A rich learning environment at<br />
Amazing Kids Academy<br />
Amazing Kids Academy was founded<br />
September 2002 to meet the needs of Grove City<br />
children who needed a small individualized<br />
preschool environment. We offer small classes<br />
with degreed teachers to meet the needs of your<br />
child as they develop.<br />
Our school has a rich learning environment<br />
using High Scope curriculum which allows us to<br />
be diverse in our learning approach. We have<br />
many “indoor” field trips where groups come to<br />
the school to talk with the children. Each year the<br />

lucrative times for retailers.<br />
Apparel is a large part of back-to-school<br />
shopping. Many parents find they need to<br />
outfit their kids with a new wardrobes each<br />
year. Jeans and leggings that fit like a<br />
glove in June may only reach mid-calf by<br />
Labor Day. To make the shopping process<br />
less harried and more productive, parents<br />
can employ these strategies.<br />
Take inventory<br />
Go through kids’ wardrobes and see<br />
what can be salvaged and what might need<br />
to go. This is the perfect opportunity to put<br />
aside gently used, outgrown items that<br />
may be passed on to someone else who can<br />
use them. Be sure to make a list of any<br />
items that the school requires, particularly<br />
in regard to uniforms or dress codes. By<br />
knowing what’s in stock in the closet, you’ll<br />
have a clear idea of what you need to buy.<br />
Check for tax-free discounts<br />
Some states or cities offer tax-free or<br />
discount shopping incentives, which can<br />
add up to considerable savings. It may be<br />
well worth the effort to stock up on necessities<br />
during these times.<br />
Sign up for loyalty programs<br />
If yours is a child who prefers certain<br />
brands, sign up early in the year for such<br />
brands’ loyalty clubs.<br />
Get enough to get by<br />
While certain clothing sales happen<br />
between <strong>July</strong> and August, often the real<br />
savings begin in October. Wait until that<br />
time to buy the bulk of kids’ school clothes.<br />
After all, the first weeks of school are usually<br />
warm, and summer clothing will still<br />
suffice with a few new items thrown in to<br />
freshen up wardrobes.<br />
Invest in quality shoes<br />
Sneakers and other shoes can be expensive.<br />
However, investing in quality brands<br />
can help you avoid having to buy shoes frequently.<br />
Watch for shoe sales and stock up<br />
on coupons. Many stores offer buy-one, getone<br />
half off during the back-to-school season.<br />
In addition to these tips, save more by<br />
shopping overstock stores or warehouse<br />
clubs for name-brand items at lower prices.<br />

Reading is a passion for many people.<br />
But even avid readers may not know just<br />
how far back their love of reading stretches.<br />
According to the American Academy of<br />
Pediatrics, children who find pleasure in<br />
reading have the potential to become lifelong<br />
readers. In addition, studies have<br />
shown that reading to children can help<br />
kids become familiar with sounds, words<br />
and language, helping them in their earliest<br />
stages of cognitive development. So<br />
adults who love books might be able to<br />
trace their passion for page-turners to<br />
those times their mothers and fathers read<br />
aloud to them as youngsters.<br />
Parents who want to their children to<br />
learn to love reading can rely on various<br />
techniques to accomplish that goal.<br />
•Make reading a routine. Routine is a<br />
necessity for parents, helping children<br />
learn when it’s time to eat, play and go to<br />
sleep, among other things. Parents can<br />
include reading to their children as part of<br />
their daily routines. As noted, doing so will<br />
promote language skills and cognitive<br />
development while also acclimating children<br />
to books and providing valuable time<br />
Back - to - School<br />
Establishing a love for reading at a young age<br />
for them to bond with their parents.<br />
•Create a distraction-free reading environment.<br />
When reading to children, parents<br />
can create an environment with little<br />
to no distractions. This allows kids to focus<br />
on their parents’ voices as well as the story<br />
they’re being told. Parents can turn off the<br />
television and the radio when reading to<br />
their kids. In addition, moms and dads<br />
should leave smartphones or tablets in<br />
another room so they aren’t distracted by<br />
alerts or tempted to check for incoming<br />
messages or emails.<br />
•Read aloud together. Some children<br />
may shy away from reading if they struggle<br />
in their initial efforts to read. That does not<br />
mean kids won’t ultimately enjoy reading,<br />
it just means a little more effort may be<br />
required on parents’ part to help kids overcome<br />
any issues they have. Reading aloud<br />
to children can help little ones learn how to<br />
become good readers, as they will learn<br />
how to pronounce words and form sentences.<br />
Kids who know how to read can be<br />
encouraged to read to their parents, which<br />
can instill self-esteem.<br />
•Let kids pick their own books. When<br />
reading to youngsters, whether they’re<br />
babies, toddlers or already in school, parents<br />
can let sons and daughters choose<br />
their own books. Children might be especially<br />
enthusiastic about reading if they’re<br />
allowed to choose their own books and stories.<br />

Management Program<br />
When Cayla Allen (’21) first started her college<br />
career at Ohio Christian University, she<br />
wanted to be a teacher. Later on, she switched to<br />
an emergency and disaster management degree.<br />
After receiving a degree, students are qualified to<br />
work in areas ranging from local non-profits to<br />
large, international organizations.<br />
One benefit of the Emergency and Disaster<br />
Management program is the hands-on experience<br />
students get in the field.<br />

in different areas.”<br />
The professors in this program are very dedicated<br />
to educating their students and helping them<br />
achieve their goals.<br />
When asked about the staff at Ohio Christian,<br />
Allen said, “My professors here at OCU are some<br />
of the most qualified and experienced people I<br />
have ever met, and I hope I never take for granted<br />
what they have provided me with to get where I<br />

SWACO needs clay soil<br />
from Pleasant Township<br />
By Hannah Poling<br />
Staff Writer<br />
A representative from the Solid Waste<br />
Authority of Center Ohio (SWACO) attended<br />
the <strong>July</strong> 23 Pleasant Township trustee<br />
meeting to discuss plans to collect clay soil<br />
for the landfill.<br />
SWACO Director of Operations, Scott<br />
Perry discussed creating a crossing on<br />
Young Road to harvest clay.<br />
“We are currently out of clay material to<br />
build our landfill,” said Perry. “Currently,<br />
the area where we are at, we’ve used all<br />
the clay. The next place to get clay is west<br />
of Young Road.”<br />
He said that right now they are only in<br />
the process of testing the dirt. All of the<br />
samples have already been taken. SWACO<br />
has plenty of soil for their daily operations<br />
at the landfill, but they do not have any<br />
clay.<br />
Upgrades will also be made to the road.<br />
According to Perry, SWACO will only use<br />
the road as necessary during construction<br />
and will use safety precautions such as a<br />
mobile red lights, flaggers, a berm, and<br />
fence around the construction area.<br />
The project is scheduled to begin in<br />
2021.<br />
“We just want to keep the community<br />
up to date with what we are doing,” Perry<br />
said. “We wanted to come out here and<br />
show what we are doing and be transparent.”<br />
The noise ordinance was also brought<br />
up at the meeting by Pleasant Township<br />
resident, Mary Kerins.<br />
According to Kerins, a rodeo took place<br />
at the end of June about a mile and a half<br />
away from her residence. She called the<br />
Franklin County Sheriff’s Office to file a<br />
noise complaint against the rodeo.<br />
“I live on Oakhurst and I could hear<br />
every word the man said over the loud<br />
speaker,” Kerins said. “I didn’t call until<br />
11:15 p.m. and they were still going on. It<br />
was loud and it was late.”<br />
She was told to bring the issue up with<br />
Pleasant Township officials. She was then<br />
forwarded to Prairie Township where she<br />
attended their township meeting as well to<br />
discuss the issue last week. Both Prairie<br />
Township and Pleasant Township have the<br />
same noise regulations.<br />
According to Kerins, there were many<br />
noise complaints made that night. She<br />
wanted to make the trustees aware of the<br />
situation so something could be done to<br />
prevent this in the future.<br />
“I think in that noise resolution there is<br />
something that addresses events that happen<br />
occasionally,” said Nancy Hunter,<br />
township trustee.<br />
Hunter said the noise resolution would<br />
be looked into more thoroughly to address<br />
this issue.<br />

In Entertainment<br />
Creature film is back with some bite<br />
Want to see apex predators on the big screen? Are<br />
you not interested in watching them singing and dancing<br />
and, you know, getting along with others? If so,<br />
might I suggest the recently released “Crawl” to whet<br />
your ravenous appetite?<br />
If you’re like me, you miss the abundance of mindless<br />
creature features that filled the summer blockbuster<br />
slate in the 1990s and early 2000s. These films<br />
were fun, simple, stupid and exactly what you wanted<br />
to see during these long and hot months.<br />
Unfortunately, like most species on this planet, this<br />
genre became endangered and then practically extinct<br />
due to human activity, or inactivity to be more precise,<br />
at the box office. But unlike the former, powerful people<br />
in charge may be looking to bring the latter back to<br />
life, a welcome respite from the constant stream of<br />
comic book adaptations, sequels and reboots. Though<br />
some may not be thrilled with this potential bit of<br />
news, I say it is cause for a generic celebration. Let the<br />
creature feature reign!<br />
In “Crawl,” the primary focus is on a competitive<br />
swimmer named Haley Keller (Kaya Scodelario) and<br />
her strained relationship with her father Dale (Barry<br />
Pepper). For reasons not well explained, these two had<br />
a falling out several years ago and have been in minimal<br />
contact since despite living a short distance away.<br />
After a disastrous swim meet that could imperil her<br />
scholarship at the University of Florida, Haley is given<br />
two more pieces of bad news: the first is that the strong<br />
tropical storm has turned into a Category 5 hurricane<br />
and the second is that her sister has not heard from<br />
their father in days.<br />
Despite knowing the perils of not getting out of<br />
dodge during a weather event of that magnitude,<br />
Haley travels back to their hometown to search for<br />
their missing father. When she arrives at his last<br />
known residence, she finds their beloved dog Sugar<br />
(Cso-Cso) frightened and all alone. Knowing that he<br />
would not willingly leave the pet behind, she takes the<br />
pooch with her to their childhood home where they discover<br />
his truck, tool belt and phone, but no estranged<br />
father.<br />
With a growing sense of unease, Haley searches the<br />
house until the only place left is their labyrinthine<br />
crawl space. Navigating its dark curves, errant wiring<br />
What’s looming?<br />

The Reel Deal<br />
Dedra Cordle<br />
and the occasional rat and spider,<br />
she quite literally stumbles<br />
upon the body of her partially<br />
mauled and unconscious father.<br />
Not knowing what caused his<br />
injuries, she uses a makeshift<br />
tarp to try to drag him to safety.<br />
But just as they nearly reach<br />
the stairway to safe haven, a massive alligator strikes<br />
from the shadows, leaving the humans trapped in a<br />
maze of darkness that is quickly being flooded with<br />
water.<br />
Though the setting for this film is a dank crawl<br />
space filled with murky water, it isn’t hard to see the<br />
action that is taking place: the use of light from director<br />
Alexandre Aja (of “Piranha 3D” fame) and cinematographer<br />
Maxime Alexandre put bigger budget<br />
action films to shame. With this usage, the trickery of<br />
light, it creates a sense of heightened tension as the<br />
alligator could literally be lurking anywhere. That is<br />
not to mention the use of measuring tapes as an awakened<br />
Dale uses it to calculate how fast the water is rising,<br />
or him slipping back into coach mode as he tries to<br />
coax his daughter to make a swim for safety.<br />
Like the creature feature films of the past, and<br />
unlike the lesser versions on SyFy, you find yourself<br />
rooting for these characters to succeed and survive<br />
despite their long odds. And a bonus is that they don’t<br />
make too many stupid decisions unlike their counterparts<br />
of yore.<br />
So if you’re looking for something fun and original<br />
and straightforward to see this summer, consider<br />
“Crawl” as an option. It’s a lean film that features<br />
decent jump scares, an excellent use of light, and it<br />
constantly taps into the fear of what is lurking beneath<br />
the water’s surface or around any dark corner. Grade:<br />

Pets of the week<br />
Venus is a 3-monthold<br />
black Lab mix.<br />
Her favorite things<br />
are play time outside,<br />
squeaky toys and<br />
snuggly laps. Venus<br />
would love a home<br />
where her human<br />
would take her out for<br />
daily walks and play<br />
with her. She is eager<br />
to find her forever family. Venus is available for<br />
adoption through Colony Cats and Dogs.<br />

Voodoo is a 2-year-old pit bull. Action is his middle name. He has a<br />
‘let’s go’ lifestyle that will keep you motivated to get outside and move.<br />
Voodoo has tons of energy, and just like the sun, he’s burning and<br />
working 24 hours a day, seven days a week. He can run for miles,<br />
chase a ball for hours, and still want to play at the end of the day. If you<br />
think you can keep up with this one, meet Voodoo at the county dog<br />
shelter.<br />

<strong>July</strong> is a very active<br />
and social pooch.<br />
She will need lots of<br />
exercise, tennis balls,<br />
and attention to wear<br />
her out. Because <strong>July</strong><br />
can be sometimes<br />
rough at play, she will<br />
require kids over the<br />
age of 12, and preferably<br />
no other dogs or<br />
cats in the household. However, this 5-yearold<br />
mixed breed is still a sweetheart with<br />
much love to give. Adopt <strong>July</strong> from the<br />
Franklin County Dog Shelter.<br />

The National Trade Association<br />

purchased the following<br />
classifieds. Determining<br />
the value of their service<br />
or product is advised by<br />
this publication. In order<br />
to avoid misunderstandings,<br />
some advertisers do<br />
not offer “employment”<br />
but rather supply the<br />
readers with manuals, directories<br />
and other materials<br />
designed to help<br />
their clients establish mail<br />
order selling and other<br />
businesses at home. Under<br />
NO circumstance<br />
should you send any<br />
money in advance or give<br />
the client your checking,<br />
license ID or credit card<br />
numbers. Also beware of<br />
ads that claim to guarantee<br />
loans regardless of<br />
credit and note that if a<br />
credit repair company<br />
does business only over<br />
the phone it’s illegal to request<br />
any money before<br />
delivering its service. All<br />
funds are based in US<br />
dollars. Toll Free numbers<br />
may or may not<br />
