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

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.
Council meetings
Obetz City Council meets the second

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.

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.”

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.
