The West Jefferson Community Association hopes to hit a homerun

after being thrown a curveball for this year’s Ox Roast.

Traditionally, the festival includes rides, but organizers found

out late in the planning process the ride company they used in the

past is not operational this season. With no other ride companies

available on short notice, they turned to the public for help in providing

alternative entertainment, and they got it.

Thanks to volunteers, sponsorships

and other donations, the 2021 Ox

Roast—set for Sept. 4-6 at Garrette

park—is chockfull of activities for children

and adults. Many new features

dot the schedule.

Groups that stepped up to provide

and run activities include the West Jefferson

Parks and Recreation Department

(water games), West Jefferson

Hardware (games), and the Chrysler

family (darts and balloons). West Jefferson

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post

7005 is organizing cornhole tournaments

Donations made it possible for the Community Association to

rent several bounce houses which will operate for several hours all

three days of the festival. The exact hours depend on how many volunteers

are recruited to run the bounce houses. For $10, children

get a wrist bracelet that lets them bounce as much as they want.

The association also hired Horse-N-Round Fun to provide pony

rides, a petting zoo, and their own bounce house. The pony rides

are $5.

New on the food front is an addition to the eating contests. The

watermelon, pie, ice cream, and hot dog eating contests are back.

New is a donut hole eating contest. Also new is a pie auction set for

Saturday night.

“We have nine or 10 pies people are going to bake and donate.

We wanted something new and different and decided to give this a

try,” said Jeff Pfeil, Community Association president. Proceeds

will go to the West Jefferson Senior Citizens Christmas Party, an

event the association sponsors each year.

Pfeil also reported that the association has made adjustments

to the amount of meat they plan to roast and the price of the festival’s

famous Ox Roast sandwiches.

“We cut back a little on how much meat we ordered because of

the price of meat. Usually, we order around 5,000 pounds. This

year, we ordered 3,000 pounds,” he said. “With the way our finances

were when we had to place the order, we went conservative. We

The Plain City Community Singers made their debut at Plain City’s Independence Day

celebration. Their next concert is scheduled for Sept. 5 at Pastime Park.

It will be all kinds of genres of music—patriotic,

Broadway, pop, and little bit of sacred,”

said Anne Gorman, who formed the group

this past spring.

Gorman said her idea to bring people together

to make music had been percolating

for a couple of years. She retired as

Jonathan Alder High School’s vocal music

teacher in 2017 after 18 years with the district,

prior to which she

taught vocal music for

nine years at Hilliard

City Schools. She also

has directed musicals for

the Pleasure Guild of

Children’s Hospital and

once sang in a professional

opera company in

Florida.

course, COVID made me miss it even more

because we couldn’t get together to do

things like that,” Gorman said.

When COVID-19 vaccines became available

earlier this year, she decided the time

was finally right to form a community choir.

She made the announcement on Facebook,

wondering what interest it would generate.

“I thought, ‘If I get 10 or 12 people, I’ll be

happy.’ The first night, I had 32,” she said.

The first rehearsal took place on April

18. Since then, the group has met every

Tuesday at 7 p.m. at Buckeye Brass &

Winds, the former United Methodist

Church at 202 N. Chillicothe St., Plain City.

The number of participants fluctuates according

to availability. Gorman said she has

had anywhere from 22 to 45 people show up

for practice.

“Everybody is excited to get to sing again

and be together and work on music that

makes them happy... It’s just been really

fun,” she said.

The people showing up to sing run the

gamut, from Gorman’s former students and

students’ parents and

grandparents to retired

teachers, friends of

friends, and other area

residents.

The group made its

performance debut as

part of the entertainment

lineup for Plain

City’s Independence Day

celebration. The full ensemble

performed three patriotic numbers.

A breakout men’s a capella group performed,

as well.

The Community Singers likely will take

a break from rehearsals from mid-September

to mid-October before gearing up again

for what Gorman hopes will be some Christmas/holiday

gigs.

Anyone who is at least 14 years old is

welcome to join the all-volunteer choir. The

ranks currently run from youngsters to

folks in their early 80s.

Traffic light changes in London

Full moon bike rides Sept. 17 and Oct. 20

Madison Editor

20 at 7:30 p.m.

The city of London plans to remove five

traffic lights around town. The first step is

a 90-day trial period. The process began on

Aug. 24.

The lights scheduled for removal are at

the following intersections:

• High and Union streets;

• High and Oak streets;

• High Street and Westmoor Drive;

• Main and Second streets; and

• Main and Fourth streets.

The street department is hanging signs

next to the lights at those intersections that

read “Signal under study for removal.” The

signs will remain in place for 90 days during

which activity at those intersections

will be monitored. The data will determine

whether the lights stay or go, said Bill

Long, street superintendent.

During the 90-day period, the lights will

flash yellow on High and Main streets.

They will flash red on Westmoor, Union,

Oak, Second and Fourth. Additionally, the street department is installing

stop signs on those four side streets.

Along with removing some traffic lights, the city plans to replace

all of the city’s other traffic lights with new, brighter and more efficient

LED units. The street department has issued a request for

proposals (RFP) for the purchase of the new lights and is working

on an RFP for the installation work. Long said he hopes to put both

contracts out to bid soon.

Concerns over flooding

Kevin Gaverick, a resident of North Madison Road in London,

addressed city council Aug. 19 about flooding on his property and

nearby properties.

Heavy rains that came through the city earlier this month left

storm water in Gaverick’s basement. He said he had to pump out

six inches of water. This is not the first time the city’s storm sewer

has backed up into Gaverick’s basement.

“It’s getting worse. It’s happening more often,” he said.

“I can tell you this is something that isn’t falling on deaf ears,”

Mayor Patrick Closser told Gaverick. “We have an aging infrastructure.

I would say we’ve spent more money in the past five years

than we did in the 20 years before on storm sewer (repairs and upgrades).”

Closser said city leaders have a couple of ideas on how to address

the flooding issues. One is a quick fix, and the other a more extensive

project, he said.

“People like to call them 100-year floods, but we’re having them

about every year or more. We are looking into this,” he added.

Council member Josh Peters suggested Gaverick consider installing

a backflow preventer valve, a device that prevents storm

water from backing up into the home.

Rex Henry, the city’s safety services director, said he experienced

the same problems when he lived on Westmoor Drive. He installed

a backflow preventer.

“It did help me in my situation,” he said.

Closser noted that city code now requires installation of backflow

preventers in all new houses.

Council business

During the business portion of the Aug. 19 meeting, council:

• approved the collective bargaining agreement with the fire

fighters union;

• approved the appointment of London resident David Mars to

the city’s historic downtown revitalization commission; and

• set a public hearing for an alley vacation request. The alley is

located between 136 McClene Avenue and 140 McClene Avenue.

The hearing will take place at council’s Oct. 7 meeting.

The next regular council meeting is set for 7 p.m. Sept. 2 at city

hall.

The London street department has started the process of removing

five traffic lights around town. The first step is a 90-day trial

period during which lights are set to flash and stop signs on the

side streets are installed.

Dog park upgrades, park benches, EV chargers

By Kristy Zurbrick

Madison Editor

Recent and upcoming improvements in the city of London run

from fun stuff for pooches to installation of personalized benches

and charging stations for electronic vehicles.

Dog Park

The city’s dog park, located at the corner of Elm Street and Keny

Boulevard, now features play equipment for visiting canines.

The new features include two tunnel runs, a jump obstacle, a t-

bar with tug-o-war ropes attached, and a walkup structure with a

ramp on one side, steps on the other, and a shaded landing at the

top. The features are located on the side of the park reserved for

larger dogs.

“It’s a big, nice open field for dogs to run. This just gives them a

little more stuff to play on and enjoy themselves,” said Mayor

Patrick Closser.

The new equipment cost $6,900. City council approved covering

the cost with general fund money. The city eliminated pricey installation

fees by using a combination of volunteers and in-house employees.

Members of the London City Schools administrative team

and street department employees installed the equipment on Aug. 3.

“Anytime we get playground equipment, we do this. It really saves

a lot of money,” said Closser, who also helped with installation.

The city opened the dog park in October 2018. The fenced-in area

provides dog owners with a place to let their dogs run freely. Other

amenities include doggie drinking fountains and a shelter house.

Benches

The city has started a project whereby individuals or groups can

sponsor new benches at Cowling Park.

The benches cost $750 each. The cost includes a personalized

plaque. Sponsors can honor loved ones or recognize local community

organizations on the plaques.

“People are loving these benches,” Closser said, “but I’ve also

heard and seen people saying that they’re so expensive.”

He noted the benches are of high quality and built to last. They

are six feet long, made out of recycled materials, feature cast aluminum

frames, and attach to concrete pads. He emphasized that

the project is not a money-maker for the

city. The benches themselves cost $750; the

city covers the cost of the engraved plaques

and cement pads on which the benches sit.

“We actually lose a little bit (of money)

by doing each one, but it’s a great thing for

our community,” Closser said.

To date, the city has installed four

benches around the Park’s playground

equipment, giving parents places to sit and

watch their children play. A sponsor for a

fifth bench recently contacted the city. As

more sponsors come in, the plan is to continue

to add benches where needed and replace

existing benches.

office, 20 S. Walnut St., Suite 100, (740)

Electronic Vehicle Charging Stations

The city is one step closer to installing

charging stations for electronic vehicles at

two downtown sites.

On Aug. 19, city council members voted

to set aside $30,000 to purchase three

charging stations. Once the stations are installed,

the Ohio Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) will reimburse the city for the

expense.

Rees, executive assistant for the city’s administrative

offices, spearheaded the project,

applying for and receiving the EPA grant.

Initially, the grant was going to cover two

BOE certifies Boerger’s petition

By Kristy Zurbrick

Madison Editor

One candidate whose petition was rejected

has won his way onto the Nov. 2 general

election ballot.

Michael Boerger had submitted a petition

to the Madison County Board of Elections

to run for one of the Pike Township

trustee seats up for election.

Upon initial review of Boerger’s petition,

the bipartisan board found issues that invalidated

three of the 27 signees, leaving

Boerger one signee short of the required

number. Trustee candidates must collect at

least 25 valid signatures from registered

voters, along with accurate accompanying

information.

Boerger secured legal counsel to protest

the board’s decision. At the board’s Aug. 23

meeting, Boerger’s legal counsel presented

two notarized affidavits.

One of the affidavits was from an individual

who printed his name on the petition

rather than signing it which meant it didn’t match the signature

the board had on file. The individual confirmed his identity as the

person who printed his name. The other affidavit was from an individual

whose handwriting made his address difficult to read. He

confirmed his address.

The board accepted the two signees as valid and certified Boerger

for the ballot.

Boerger was the only person to file for the Pike Township trustee

race. Two seats are up for election.

Write-in Candidates

The deadline to file as a write-in candidate for the fall election

was 4 p.m. Aug. 23.

The board of elections received three write-in applications prior

to their morning meeting on Aug. 23. They certified all three.

Charles Peters III is a write-in candidate for Deercreek Township

trustee. He and Robert J. Turvy Jr. are running for the two

seats up for election.

John E. Griffith and Joel Daniel Call are write-in candidates for

the Range Township trustee race. They and Dennis K. Marshall are

running for the two seats up for election.

The board received a fourth write-in application after their morning

meeting on Aug. 23 and before the 4 p.m. deadline. They will

meet on Aug. 31 to review David A. Junk’s application to run as a

write-in candidate for the Range Township trustee race.

Health commissioner: Wear a mask indoors

According to the Centers of Disease

Control and Prevention (CDC)

COVID-19 Data Tracker, community

transmission of COVID-19 has

reached the “high” threshold in

Madison County.

In the first three weeks of August,

more than 160 new cases of COVID-

19 have been reported to Madison

County Public Health. This nearly

equals the total number of cases reported

during the months of May,

June and July combined.

In response to the rapid increase

in cases, Madison County Health Commissioner Chris

Cook is asking everyone age 2 and older to wear a mask

when indoors. Cook notes this is neither a mandate nor

a recommendation.

“I’m going to call this what it is. It’s a plea,” Cook said.

He is urging vaccinated and unvaccinated people to

wear masks now while transmission is high.

“Wear a mask indoors at church, schools, indoor

events, meetings, and in the workplace,” he advised.

The CDC’s four-tiered system measures the level of

community transmission in each county in the country

based on population. “Low” transmission for Madison

County is considered to be no more than five cases per

week. “Moderate” transmission is considered to be between

five and 21 cases per week, while “substantial”

transmission is 22 to 45 cases per week. “High” transmission

is more than 45 cases per week. During the last

week, 59 new cases have been reported in Madison

The 100th Phillips family reunion was held Aug. 1 at

the home of Tim and Dorothy Phillips Amling, four

miles east of London. The Amlings have hosted the reunion

for 23 or 24 years.

The reunion was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-

19 pandemic. That would have marked the 100th consecutive

year.

The reunion was started the first Sunday of August

around town

County.

Cook cites the sudden surge in

cases and the unique aggressiveness

of the delta variant as the reasons

why even vaccinated people should

be wearing a mask right now.

“Our COVID-19 vaccines do an

amazing job at preventing severe illness,

but they do not stop all transmission

of the virus,” he reported.

Compared to early variations of

the virus, the delta variant multiplies

much more quickly.

“The delta variant turns your

body into a high-speed photocopier. It’s overwhelming

what it can do in a short amount of time,” Cook noted.

Unvaccinated people have a high risk of getting very

sick and ending up in the hospital while vaccinated people

have a very low risk.

“The pandemic is not over. When we have this much

transmission of a new variant, everyone needs to do

their part and wear a mask,” Cook said.

The COVID-19 delta variant is currently the predominant

strain in Ohio. Experts estimate that the

delta variant is 50 percent more contagious than the

alpha variant, which is itself 50 percent more contagious

than the original virus that started the pandemic.

Until vaccine becomes available to all ages, Cook

said the need to protect those who cannot yet get a vaccine

has never been greater.

“We have a vastly more contagious variant of the

virus, and those under 12 cannot get vaccinated yet.

Phillips family holds100th reunion

1920 at the farm house of William (Billy) Phillips in

Pickaway County.

Forty-two family members attended this year’s celebration.

At 1 p.m., everyone enjoyed a delicious meal.

The rest of the afternoon was spent in fellowship, while

the youth enjoyed swimming, fishing, tennis and paddle

boating.

Masks are key right now,” he said.

When worn correctly and consistently, masks work to keep

droplets carrying the virus contained behind the mask. They also

help keep airborne droplets from being inhaled. Masks work best

when everyone wears them, according to Cook.

“Masks are for now, not forever,” he said. “We need to recognize

what is going on around us, act like a community, and make respectful

choices.”

Honoring vaccination work

Health department named

parade grand marshal

By Kristy Zurbrick

Madison Editor

Traditionally, the West Jefferson Community Association

selects an individual as grand marshal of the annual

Ox Roast parade. This year, they broke with

tradition and selected an entire organization.

On Sept. 4, representatives of Madison County Public

Health (MCPH) will lead the parade through West

Jefferson. The association is shining the spotlight on

the health department for the work

they have done throughout the

COVID-19 pandemic, especially with

the drive-through vaccine clinics held

earlier this year.

Patty Blake, an association trustee

and a registered nurse, volunteered at

the vaccine clinics which took place

February through May at the Molly

Caren Agricultural Center outside of

London. That experience and her respect

for the way the clinics were run

led Blake to nominate MCPH for parade grand marshal.

“It was one of the most rewarding things I’ve done

as a nurse, and I’ve been a nurse for over 40 years,” said

Blake, a West Jefferson resident who works at the Ohio

State Wexner Medical Center. “The public was so grateful

and happy; some cried out of joy when they got the

vaccine. They’d roll down their windows as they drove

through and say ‘thanks’ to every single one of us working

the clinics.”

The health department held 34 drive-through clinics

at the Molly Caren Center over the four-month span,

administering nearly 20,000 individual vaccinations.

Blake said she was impressed with how smoothly the

clinics ran and how dedicated the staff was to the job

“I have the ultimate respect

for everyone who

worked out there. They did

a stellar job.”

–Patty Blake, West Jefferson

Community Association

trustee, about Madison

County Public Health’s drivethrough

vaccination clinics

with which they were tasked.

“They were out here sometimes in horrific weather—

cold, blustery, sometimes snowing. They worked after

hours and every Saturday for months,” she said. “I have

the ultimate respect for everyone who worked out there.

They did a stellar job.”

Chris Cook, Madison County health commissioner,

said he and the MCPH staff appreciate the association’s

recognition.

“We don’t do these things for accolades. We typically

sit way under the radar on a non-pandemic day,” he

said. “For (the association) to recognize not only what

we’ve done for the community as a whole but also

specifically for West Jefferson, we are flattered.”

For each three- or four-hour clinic,

a team of approximately 45 health department

employees and volunteers

also put in additional hours doing prep

work, cleanup and data entry. Cook

said the volunteers were invaluable to

the process.

At the clinics’ peak, the team was

administering 350 vaccinations per

hour. One Saturday, they administered

1,100 shots in three hours.

“Anytime we’re asked to do something,

we are going to answer the call,” Cook said,

adding that another call likely will come soon in the

form of administering third doses of the vaccine. The

health department is already administering third doses

to individuals who are immunocompromised.

MCPH offers COVID-19 vaccines at its office, 306

Lafayette St., London. Appointments can be booked at

appointment.madisonph.org or by calling (740) 852-

3065. Days and times are Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 4

p.m. and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Queen bids farewell after two years

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.

My name is Madison Myers, and I am

the 2019-2020 West Jefferson Ox Roast

Queen.

I want to start off by saying how grateful

I am to have represented not only the Ox

Roast festival but the community of West

Jefferson. Holding this title has given me

the opportunity to travel all across the state

of Ohio making memories that will last a

life time and becoming the young woman I

am today.

As a little girl, I always dreamed of becoming

a princess. I remember being in

complete awe as festival queens drove past

in local parades. Never in my wildest

Bike ride hits 30th year

The 30th annual Ox Roast Bicycle Tour is

back for 2021. Due to popular demand, a

third route has been added to accommodate

century riders (100 miles). The Friends of

Madison County Parks and Trails will sponsor

the ride in cooperation with the West Jefferson

Community Association on Sept. 6.

The Ox Roast Bicycle Tour was first organized

in 1990 by Jared Miller as an Eagle

Scout project. The Miller family continued

to run the tour for 16 years, and it has

grown into one of the most popular and

well-organized tours in Ohio.

The tour now consists of three route options:

33 miles, 66 miles and 100 miles. All

routes kick off between 6:30 and 9 a.m. near

Garrette Park on Frey Avenue/Cemetery

Road in West Jefferson. The routes wind

through Madison County and extreme western

Franklin County and feature flat to gently

rolling terrain.

All Ox Roast Bicycle Tour routes start

near the tour check-in table at the south

end of the festival near the community

building in Garrette Park. They then follow

their respective route colors. All routes end

at this same point where riders can leave

their bikes at the free bike corral while they

enjoy the festival. All participants receive a

voucher for a free Ox Roast sandwich (an $8

value), included with the tour registration.

Bikes will be guarded until 4 p.m.

The registration fee includes detailed

tour maps, identification wrist band (which

must be displayed at all times), support

services, food stops, and an FMCPT membership

through 2021. Food items provided

at rest stops include waffles, peanut butter,

granola bars, fresh fruit, water and sports

drinks. All registrants receive access to a

rider-only discount for official tour t-shirts.

Early registration is $45. The cost increases

to $60 after 8 p.m. Aug. 30.

Visit www.fmcpt.com for details.

dreams did I imagine I’d be holding the title

of queen today. My younger self also could

not have imagined the amount of responsibility

that comes with wearing beautiful

gowns and crowns.

My actions have served not only as a reflection

on myself but also on the Ox Roast

festival and the West Jefferson community.

For the past two years, little girls have

looked up to me as I rode past in their local

parades. Each responsibility has held me to

a higher level of integrity. Being a role

model to girls in our county and across the

state has been the most rewarding part of

this entire experience.

I want to give a big thank-you to Jeff

Pfeil and the West Jefferson Community

Association for putting on such an amazing

festival and allowing me the opportunity to

hold this title. I also want to thank Donna

Warner for providing me with everything I

could ever need for the last two years on the

court.

The deadline to enter is Sept. 5. Entry

forms are available at: Flyer’s Pizza, 121 W.

Main St., West Jefferson; West Jefferson

Hardware, 228 E. Main St., West Jefferson;

www.westjeffoxroast.org; or by calling or

Cornhole Tournaments—West Jefferson

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7005 is organizing

cornhole tournaments from 4 to 9

p.m. Sept. 4-5. The cost to enter is $20 per

two-person team.

Kiddie Tractor Pull—3:30 p.m. Sept. 5 in

the sandwich serving area behind the

Mike’s Trucking Stage.
