Obetz resident worried

about speeders and traffic

By Katelyn Sattler

Staff Writer

Obetz resident Chris Herren is concerned.

Herren, who spoke at Obetz City

Council’s Sept. 27 meeting, because a

flashing speed limit sign was knocked

down about a year ago and it still has not

been replaced.

Obetz City Administrator Rod Davisson

said the sign was knocked down by a drunk

driver.

“It’s about $5,500 for a new one,” said

Davisson. We waited for the court case to

settle and get restitution. In the interim, a

regular speed limit sign was put in place.

We will have a new flashing one in the next

couple of months.”

“We want it back up as much as you do,”

added Mayor Angela Kirk.

Herren said that, since the flashing

light was replaced with a regular speed

REMINDER:

Paid for by Bonnie Wiley for Obetz City Council

limit sign, too many people are speeding

and that someone might be killed. He said

people fly by when kids are getting on and

off the school bus.

“It’s like a race track. It’s ridiculous,”

said Herren.

Kirk said they can put a traffic counter

on his street to measure the volume of traffic

traveling on his street, so they can know

what the city will be dealing with.

“Nobody wants a kid hit,” said Kirk.

Davisson acknowledged said traffic is

getting heavier, especially with wellattended

events like the Zucchinifest, and

talked about future potential changes to

roadways to provide relief from the traffic.

Herren is also frustrated that there are

not enough things for kids to do on his side

of Obetz, which became a brainstorming

session among council members and city

staff, although most were in agreement

that they do not know what teens do,

besides playing video games.

Council members talked of basketball, a

baseball diamond going in, and the possibility

of sand volleyball.

The city is redoing McFadyen Park,

which is currently closed. Davisson said

the basketball court had to be torn up due

to insurance concerns. The city is keeping

the swings and adding some new ones.

They are also replacing the Little Tykes

equipment.

Davisson boasted about fishing opportunities

in ponds in the city for kids and parents,

which have been stocked with bass in

one pond and catfish in another. Dixon

Quarry has been stocked with bluegill,

crappie, bass, and trout.

“Come back to me with ideas,” for activities

for the kids, said Kirk.

History meeting

Resident Jerry Benson reminded everyone

present of the Historians meeting on

Oct. 13th at 7 pm at the Senior Citizens

Building in Stewart Hall to help write the

history of Obetz.

“Please bring pictures, artifacts and tell

us your experience,” said Benson.

Groveport’s traditional fall festival, Apple Butter

Day, is celebrating its 48th year and will be held on

Oct. 9 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in Heritage Park, 551

Wirt Road in Groveport.

“Apple Butter Day is Groveport,” said Groveport

Community Affairs Director Patty Storts. “This event,

which annually attracts thousands of visitors rain or

shine, is the perfect place to spend a fall Saturday. The

smell of apple butter being made over an open fire,

stirred by volunteers is the perfect backdrop for a day

that is always memorable for all who attend. The event

showcases unique, one of a kind crafts and primitive

art items. Festival goers also have a variety of good

homemade food to choose from while listening to live

bluegrass music. The children’s area, ‘Appleseed

Way,’ has lots of free activities for children to participate

in. There is something for everyone at Groveport’s

Apple Butter Day!”

Apple Butter Day history

The festival has been a mainstay and focal point for

the community since October 1974 when it began as a

simple gathering of friends cooking apples over an

open fire in a church parking lot. One can just sense

the in the autumn air as September turns into October

that it is time for Apple Butter Day.

Apples were important to Ohio’s and Groveport’s

pioneer agricultural economy and daily life. Apples

could be stored year round and travelled well when

shipped over the rough roads or the slow moving

freight boats on the Ohio and Erie Canal.

Apples, in addition to being a refreshing treat

picked right off the tree, could be used in many products

used by the pioneers like dried apples, apple butter,

cider, apple brandy, apple chips, and vinegar. They

were even fed to hogs, which were important livestock

to the Ohio pioneer.

The Groveport Heritage Society created Apple

Butter Day to pay tribute to the town’s pioneer past

and to educate people about what life was like in

Groveport and nearby farms in the 19th and 20th centuries.

The festival strives to remain true to the area’s

historic roots. Apple Butter Day has a relaxed atmosphere

and it’s a day to be spent outdoors reveling in

what fall has to offer before gray, cold November

drives everyone indoors.

Apple Butter Day encourages us to slow down,

enjoy the pleasures of simple foods, and reinforces our

link to the past.

Apple butter for sale

You may purchase a jar of apple butter for $7 per

jar or buy three jars for $20. There will be no apple

butter served on bread slices sold at this year’s Apple

The Log House

A center piece of Groveport history is the 1815 era

Groveport Log House.

The log house originally sat on the southwest corner

of Main and Madison streets, where the Groveport

Post Office is now located. Workers discovered the log

house as they were dismantling it in 1974 to make way

for the Post Office. Volunteers from the Groveport

Heritage and Preservation Society pitched in to preserve

the house and in 1974, with help from the United

States Army Corps of Engineers, moved it to its present

location in Heritage Park.

Over the years the log house has under gone historical

restorations and renovations, but it remains a historical

focal point for Groveport and serves as an

example of our pioneer ancestors’ way of life. If you are

taking a walk around town, take a peek at this piece of

tangible history.

Apple orchard

A few years ago, the Groveport Parks Department

planted 30 apple trees in the Palm Pond area of

Heritage Park. The trees offer a variety of apples

including Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Wealthy,

Haralred, Gravenstein, Honey Crisp, Red Delicious,

Zestar, Gala, and McIntosh. The hope is to use some of

the apples from these trees at future Apple Butter Day

festivals. Visit the orchard and check out the trees’

growth.

Sharp’s Landing building

From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. get a glimpse of the area’s

Ohio and Erie Canal past by visiting the Sharp’s

Landing building across Wirt Road from the log house

and Heritage Park. The Groveport Heritage Society

reconstructed the 62x21 foot, one story, brick, 19th

century canal era building from original materials.

The building is believed to have been used as a smokehouse,

bakery, and ice house. It sat along

the Ohio and Erie Canal in what was once

Sharp’s Landing at the corner of Rohr and

Pontius roads. The building represents the

commercial life that once operated along

the canal.

No dogs allowed

Per city ordinance, people are prohibited

from bringing animals to city sponsored

event and festival areas, which includes

Apple Butter Day. The law does not apply

to guide or service dogs, police dogs, animal

exhibits at the events, or pets on residential

properties within the event area.

Walnut Woods to expand

By Rick Palsgrove

Managing Editor

Walnut Woods Metro Park will soon be

growing.

The 1,098 acre park, located between

Canal Winchester and Groveport at 6716

Lithopolis Road, will expand by 282 acres

following Metro Parks purchase of the land

from the Daltonna and Craig Crawford

trustee of Donna J. Miller Trust for Public

Land. The $2.9 million purchase price will

use about 75 percent in Clean Ohio Fund

money in addition to levy funds, according

to Metro Parks Public Information

Manager Peg Hanley.

Hanley said the newly purchased land

is located just south of Walnut Woods off

Hayes Road and includes about 5,000 feet

of frontage along Little Walnut Creek.

“We will do some habitat restoration to

protect ground and storm water and

wildlife,” said Hanley, who added there

The Columbus Metropolitan Library’s

School Help Centers are now open offering

K-12 students after-school help, plus 24/7

access to free tools and resources.

Plus, students can get connected with

virtual tutors for one-on-one help Monday

will be access for fishing and kayaking and

an eventual connection to the Tall Pines

Area at Walnut Woods.

“It’s a nice addition of land for Metro

Parks to continue protecting land and

resources in southeast Franklin County for

visitors and resident in an area that is

growing quickly and developing,” said

Hanley. “It is part of our core mission to

protect wildlife and habitat and ensure

that the citizens of Central Ohio have

places where they can discover nature and

enjoy activities outdoors.”

Walnut Woods Metro Park consists of

woodlands and fields. The Tall Pines Area

along Richardson Road features dramatic

stands of pines and sweetgum trees and

the Buckeye Area along Lithopolis Road

has long rows of old nursery trees such as

serviceberry, crab apple and red maples.

The park also features restored wetlands

and vernal pools.

Tom Sussi

For Columbus City Council

More than 30 years ago, I left Youngstown, moved to Columbus, and opened

Frank’s Fish & Seafood Market.

Over the years, I’ve met a lot of people including local reporters. One of them is

Tom Sussi who I call a friend. I always admired how Tom fought for people in his

reports and called out the nonsense with our local public officials and politicians.

My friend is fighting for a seat on Columbus City Council, and if you know anything

about the corrupt political machine that has “ruled” our city for more than two decades,

then you understand it won’t be an easy fight.

We need a guy who supports law and order and fights for law­abiding citizens. We

need a guy who will always put our best interests ahead of the fat cats and big

businesses that bankroll political campaigns.

We need a fighter, not another politician. We need Tom Sussi.

I urge all my friends and customers to support Tom in his run for

City Council and vote Sussi on November 2.

A federal grant to ease the transition

from life as a student to the working world

beyond the classroom is helping young

adults at Hamilton Township High School

consider a career in the fire service as an

EMT.

The two-credit, year-long course meets

three times a week incorporates hands-on

learning leading to a certificate from Grant

Medical Center and the opportunity to

obtain a state license after turning age 18.

Mike Morbitzer, Hamilton Local

Schools Director of Standards and Federal

Programs, said the first class was held in

2019-20 and had four students. Three students

are in this year's class.

“Instruction and training equipment is

provided by the Hamilton Township Fire

Department and OhioHealth Grant

Medical Center EMS Education,” said

Hamilton Township Fire Department

Captain Wade Edwards.

The class consists of lectures, hands-on

skills, and clinical rotations totaling 220

hours. All of the classes are conducted at

the high school, except for final testing,

which is held at Grant Medical Center.

According to Edwards, the program is

overseen by Grant’s EMS Education,

which provides all course material and

guidelines. The fire department supplies

most of the training equipment and

instruction and Hamilton Schools provides

academic advisors.

“The three entities have come together

to provide a great opportunity for students,”

said Edwards. “These students will

have a lot of job opportunities coming right

out of high school, working as a first

responder with fire and EMS or working in

the private sector in EMS. Also working in

the clinics, hospitals, and extended care

facilities. They can advance in the field to

paramedics, nursing, or a physician.”

Edwards said colleges often give credit

hours for the EMT course at the high

school to go toward a degree in the medical

www.columbusmessenger.com

Hamilton Schools and

fire department team up

field.

“It is my pleasure to work with these

students,” said Edwards. “I find it very

rewarding to see the students get excited

to help someone who is having a bad day

and in need of help. They are willing to

make a commitment to make a difference

in the world we live in one patient at a

time.”

In 2018, Edwards started working with

Morbitzer–who secured a $106,000

Expanding Opportunities for Each Child

grant to get the class started–and his

wife, Carole, who is the district’s director of

Teaching and Learning, along with a high

school team, to plan and organize the class

for the 2019-20 school year.

Carole helped Edwards organize the

curriculum and Mike coordinates with the

captain to align the course with the district’s

pathways program. Director of

Alternative Programs Allyson Price also

provides resources to Edwards and learning

guidance to students.

“Our career pathways also are coordinated

with Capitol City Trailers, City

BBQ, and Obetz, which provides internships

to juniors and seniors,” said Mike,

who is also working with the Olen Corp to

create a mining engineering pathway and

with AEP on a lineworker program. “When

we can build student career pathways and

local services at the same time, we contribute

to building a better community.”

Lockbourne celebrates its Ohio and Erie Canal heritage

Metro Parks Slate Run Living Historical Farm worker

Stephenie Reiner (above lett) wrangles one of

the farm’s Buckeye breed chickens on display on

Sept. 25 during the launch of the Ohio and Erie

Canal Southern Decent Heritage Trail in

Lockbourne, which once served as the starting

point of a feeder canal servicing Columbus in the

1800s. The historic 114 mile driving trail along the

Messenger photos by Linda Dillman

old Ohio and Erie Canal route extends from

Buckeye Lake through central Ohio and then south

to Portsmouth. Visit seeohiofirst.org for information

on the trail. Breanna Cloutier (above right) dishes

up one of a variety of bowls of chili for a hungry visitor

during the Lockbourne’s first Chili Cook Off

held in Locke Meadow Park on Sept. 25. To see

POST EXTRACTION CARE

If you have a tooth extracted,

there are some developments

to be aware of and precautions

to take. If some swelling develops

in the face, this is usually

nothing to worry about. It can

be minimized by the application

of an ice bag.

The bleeding should stop

shortly after the tooth removal

by the formation of a clot in the

socket. This clot should not be

disturbed. For starters, do not

suck on the hole or drink

through a straw. Do not take hot

foods or drinks for 5 or 6 hours,

by which time the clot should

be firmed. If you get hungry,

have a cold drink or eat a soft,

Dr. Kelly

cold food (like ice cream). Don’t

smoke and avoid eating hard

foods.

If delayed bleeding occurs,

fold a piece of gauze and bite on

it. A moistened tea bag will also

do the job. If bleeding persists,

by all means, call your dentist.

Free bleeders, especially people

with hemophilia, should tell

their dentist BEFORE any extraction

takes place so that special

precautions can be taken.

Prepared as a public service to

promote better dental health.
