Holiday Help 

effort is underway 

By Linda Dillman 

Staff Writer 

What do a fire department, a school, and a church have in common? 

They all serve the community and in Hamilton Township 

they banded together to provide clothing and toys for the needy 

during the holidays. 

The Hamilton Township Fire Department, Hamilton Local 

Schools, and Leave A Mark church are in the midst of a drive supporting 

a nearly 20-year-old program–Holiday Help–and are 

assisting 55 families with a combined total of 181 children. 

School district guidance counselors identify families and reach 

out to offer support from Holiday Help. If the families agree to 

receive assistance, they are sent a form indicating clothing sizes 

and wish list items. The forms are anonymous and distributed to 

volunteers adopting families. 

The church is the host site for the program and where sponsored 

families pick up gifts and clothing, along with two to three 

boxes of non-perishable food items and a ham or turkey. 

Times are set aside by Leave A Mark on Dec. 15 and 16 to sort 

and distribute gifts and food. 

“We feel it is important to conduct these drives to get people 

involved in helping those in their community who are less fortunate,” 

said Sandy Goldbach, the church’s Connections Director. 

“Jesus says to feed the hungry, take care of the lost and broken, 

and serve those around you. We believe that the body of the 

church should do their part to fulfill this mission.” 

Hamilton Schools Public Relations Director Kaitlin Duncan 

said businesses and people throughout the 

township–including the church, school 

system and fire department; along with

and Kelly’s Market–volunteered to adopt 

families and then shop for clothing and 

toys. 

“We just finished a districtwide hat, 

glove, and sock drive,” said Duncan. 

“These items will be donated to the families 

in need. We will be hosting a canned 

food drive the week of Dec. 6 through Dec. 

10. All items will be donated to the 

Christmas assistance families that are in 

need. We will be accepting donations from 

the community at our administrative 

building, 775 Rathmell Road from Dec. 6 to 

Dec. 10 during office hours, 8 a.m. to 4 

p.m.” 

While all of the families are assigned for 

this year, Hamilton Township Fire 

Department Chief Martin Hafey said 

donations of clothing and toys can still be 

dropped off Station 171, 1460 Obetz Road 

until Dec. 20 in support of families in need. 

“The past few years have been hard on 

everyone, and there have been many unexpected 

changes,” said Duncan. “We want to

Official local election results 

By Rick Palsgrove 

Managing Editor 

The Franklin County Board of Elections has 

released the official results of the Nov. 2 election. 

There are no changes in who was elected, however, 

a recount was necessary in the Canal Winchester City 

Council race. 

“The Canal Winchester City Council race was within 

automatic recount range,” said Franklin County 

Board of Elections Public Information Officer Aaron 

Sellers. 

In that race, only eight votes separated candidates 

Patrick Shea, with 1,203 votes; and Brandon Hord, 

with 1,195 votes. The recount was held on Nov. 30 

with the result confirming Shea’s election. 

“We completed the recount of the Canal Winchester 

City Council race of all votes cast in Franklin County 

and nothing changed,” said Sellers. 

A Fairfield County Board of Elections official indicated 

that the Franklin County Board of Elections 

handled the recount of the race for both counties since 

the majority of the precincts are in Franklin County.

Holiday cooking tips 

Families big and small typically celebrate 

the holiday season together. For 

some, celebrating the holidays with family 

requires traveling, while others stay put 

and welcome family and friends into their 

homes. 

At some point during the holiday season, 

celebrants who host family and friends 

will no doubt prepare a homecooked meal 

for their loved ones. Cooking for a crowd 

can seem like a daunting task, especially 

for first-time hosts. However, there are 

various ways for hosts to simplify cooking 

for a crowd this holiday season. 

1. Prepare a familiar dish 

Hosts may agonize over their holiday 

menus, and some may feel compelled to 

prepare a family specialty or the same 

dishes their parents or grandparents prepared 

for holiday dinners when they were 

children. But holiday hosts can make 

things easy on themselves by choosing 

dishes they’ve made in the past, regardless 

of their place in family history. Chances 

are the ingredients for hosts’ own specialties 

are already in the pantry, saving a 

potentially time-consuming trip to the grocery 

store. And thanks to the familiarity 

factor, hosts’ own specialties likely won’t 

require as much time to prepare. 

2. Share some cooking duties 

Another way to simplify cooking for a 

crowd is to invite guests to bring along a 

side dish or dessert. Guests who live nearby 

can make something in advance of the 

big meal, while hosts can hand over their 

kitchens to overnight guests who express a 

willingness to contribute their own homecooked 

dish to the party. Sharing the cooking 

duties gives hosts more time to connect 

with friends and family and serves as a 

great way to plan the menu in advance. 

3. Only make what guests are likely to eat 

Hosts also should not feel pressured to 

cook more food than is necessary. Holiday 

meals have a tendency to be lavish, but 

hosts don’t have to spend all day in the 

kitchen preparing food that will likely end 

up as leftovers or trash. Get a final headcount 

in the days before everyone comes 

over and adjust your recipes accordingly. 

4. Start early 

If the big is on Christmas Day, that does 

not mean hosts have to start cooking while 

everyone unwraps their presents. Hosts 

who are uncertain about what to cook can 

look for meals that can be prepared in 

advance so come the big day all they need 

to do is turn on the oven and let meals cook 

while the family spends time together.

Community is to those in debt. While in his

world forever.

The Community takes place in a corrupt society 

where those turned in must work off their debt, 

or else face being sent to the Medical Waste

who dreams of paying off her debt so that she 

may work to free her loved ones from servitude. 

However, her goal faces many obstacles, including 

a man’s dangerous obsession with her and 

his desire to trap her in his world.

Caring for your Christmas tree 

Christmas trees are an iconic symbol of the holiday season. 

Whether they are personal trees nestled in the corner of a living 

room for families to enjoy or towering evergreens serving as 

the focal point of a town square, Christmas trees are a wonder 

to behold. 

Many people have fond memories of time spent around the 

Christmas tree sharing gifts and family traditions. 

Live trees and their pine-like aroma can be especially nostalgic 

trees to include in holiday plans. 

The National Christmas Tree Association says that approximately 

25 to 30 million real Christmas trees are sold in the 

United States every year. 

North American trees hail from all 50 states and areas of 

Canada. 

While freshly cut trees can be particularly beautiful and aromatic 

additions to the season, they require a bit more work than 

artificial trees in order to remain beautiful and thrive throughout 

the holiday season. 

Maintenance can help keep Christmas trees as perfect as 

possible. 

• Even though it is tempting to buy a real tree as early as 

possible, their shelf life is limited even with the best care. 

Dural Christmas Tree Farm advises that, under the best conditions, 

a real tree should last up to four weeks before drying 

out. 

• Consider the needles when looking for a real tree. Pull 

your hand toward your body along the branches. If many needles 

fall off, the tree is past its peak. 

• Think about the room in which the tree will be located. 

Leave at least six inches between the tip of the tree and the ceiling, 

accounting for the height of the tree stand as well. 

• If needle retention is a goal, the Scotch pine variety has the 

best needle retention and a high survival rate, lending to its 

popularity, offers Precision Tree and Landscape. 

Douglas fir and balsam fir are other durable trees. 

• If possible, buy a freshly cut tree from a reputable nursery 

or tree farm, advises The Old Farmer’s Almanac. Many pre-cut 

trees sold elsewhere were likely cut weeks before and may not 

be fresh. 

• Cut the bottom of the tree trunk before bringing it home to 

facilitate the uptake of fresh water daily. 

Trees can absorb as much as a gallon of water in a day, so 

make sure the tree gets fresh water every day. 

• Keep trees away from as many heat sources as possible 

and away from direct sunlight to prolong longevity. 

• According to Karabin Farms in Connecticut, to make a 

Christmas tree last longer, boil a gallon of water and then dissolve 

one cup of sugar in the water. Allow to cool. 

After freshly cutting the trunk, pour in the warm sugar 

water. Continue to add fresh, cool, plain water to the tree stand 

afterward. 

Wreaths bring joy 

Wreaths adorn homes primarily during the 

holidays of Easter and Christmas. It is believed 

the first wreaths date back to ancient Greece and 

Rome. Members of the Greco-Roman society 

were known to hand-make ring-shaped items 

using fresh tree leaves, small fruits, flowers, and 

twigs. Others suggest wreaths evolved to become 

a Christian symbol of immortality. 

Regardless of how wreaths are viewed, many 

people like to display wreaths for the holidays. 

Wreaths can be purchased premade, but making a 

wreath on your own can make the holidays even 

more fun. 

One of the easiest ways to make a wreath is to 

design it around a circular floral foam form. 

Gather supplies to make the wreath. For traditional 

wreaths, supplies will include sprigs of evergreen 

(real or artificial), ribbon, floral wire, bows, 

and artificial berries. Working around the foam 

form, arrange the boughs of evergreen, using the 

floral wire to wrap or pin into the foam itself. 

Keep the layers coming until you get the desired 

coverage. Embellish with a ribbon or place a bow. 

Thick card stock also can serve as the wreath 

template. Attach artificial flowers or leaves, spray 

snow, ornaments, or other items to the card stock 

ring with a firm adhesive. 

Many craft stores sell wreath forms made of 

natural vines that have been strung in a ring. 

These can be decorated in their entirety or left a 

little sparse to let the natural twine show through.

Hamilton Township historical tidbits 

•The first birth recorded in Hamilton Township was on Sept. 

20, 1800 of Maximilla Fisher, the daughter of Michael and Sarah 

Fisher, who lived along the banks of the Scioto River. The oldest 

burial in the Walnut Hill cemetery on Rathmell Road is the 

February 1811 burial of John Hornbaker. 

•The first township road, which was later abandoned and 

became part of farmland once owned by Timothy Sherman, was 

the Franklin and Chillicothe Road. 

The first township tavern, kept by James Culbertson, was 

located on the roadway.

BWACIC 

Continued from page 1 

The BWACIC does these things via 

ownership and leasing certain pieces of 

property. It leased land to the Columbus 

Crew soccer team for practice, which was 

donated to the CIC in 1997. The Crew lease 

agreement ends this month, at which point 

the team will practice in another practice 

facility built for them by OhioHealth near 

the state fairgrounds. It’s unknown what 

will happen to that piece of property after 

the lease expires. 

“It depends on what Obetz decides to do 

with it,” said Obetz City Administrator 

Rod Davisson. “There are a lot of good 

ideas, but no decision yet.” 

The CIC is run by a board of seven 

appointed trustees: the mayor (Mayor 

Angela Kirk), the Obetz administrator 

(Rod Davisson), the president pro-tem 

(councilman Derek Varney), Buck Stewart 

(president, Capitol City Trailers, Inc.), 

David Tiggett (managing director at 

KeyBanc Capital Markets), Matt

open. 

The CIC holds public meetings at the 

beginning of the year to determine the 

budget and as needed throughout the year. 

The trustees will also appoint a member to 

fill the vacant seat at the first meeting in 

2022. 

“When there is an open spot, the 

trustees generally take resumes from 

interested parties and look for skills that 

would help us develop,” Davisson said. 

“Usually, these folks come from the business 

community.” 

Obetz also has a Convention and 

Visitor’s Bureau (CVB), which is governed 

by the same seven member board that 

makes up the BWACIC. The CVB receives 

half of the lodging tax levied by the city 

and is used for the promotion and marketing 

of the Obetz area. 

“A CIC has less regulatory oversight, 

which makes it more nimble than a city or 

a village,” Davisson said.

Winter safety tips from HTFD 

By Linda Dillman 

Staff Writer 

It is time to turn up the heat, put up the 

decorations, and take a good look around 

the home to make sure this holiday season 

is as safe as possible. 

Hamilton Township Fire Chief Martin 

Hafey said now is the time to have furnaces, 

fireplaces, wood burning stoves and chimneys 

inspected, cleaned and repaired as temperatures 

drop and thermostats are turned up. 

“Electric heaters should be placed at least 

36 inches from combustible materials like 

furniture, curtains and bedding,” said Hafey, 

“and should never be left unattended. Use 

the same rule for kerosene heaters. Children 

should never play around these devices.” 

Hafey advises putting a fire safe screen 

in front of the fireplace to protect from flying 

embers and to keep children and pets 

from injury. Have working carbon monoxide 

detectors in the home as well. 

From Nov. 1, 2020, until March 1, 2021, 

there were four carbon monoxide runs by 

the township that had positive readings. 

Two were from faulty furnaces, one from a 

bad exhaust pipe from a water heater, and 

one from a car being warmed up in the 

attached garage. 

There were several other reported carbon 

monoxide runs, but Hafey said many 

were due to signals indicating that the battery 

was low in the detector. 

“The batteries should be changed twice 

a year, just like smoke detector batteries, 

unless it is a new style with permanent 10 

year batteries,” said Hafey, who also said 

there were two fire runs related to space 

heaters. “One was where a space heater 

was too close to some furniture and had 

started to scorch the material and smoke. 

The other was where the space heater was 

plugged into a cheap brown extension cord. 

The electrical draw from the heater caused 

the extension cord to overheat and began to 

smoke and melt.” 

Hafey said electric space heaters should 

be plugged directly into the wall or into a 

larger size extension cord and kept at least 

three feet from combustible materials like 

curtains, furniture and beds. 

“There was also a fire related to a child 

playing with a lighter in a closet and causing 

the house to catch on fire,” said Hafey. 

“Matches and lighters should put up and 

out of the reach of children.” 

December is a prime time for the 

ambiance of candlelight and while they set 

a festive mood, candles must be in proper 

holders or containers. Never leave burning 

candles unattended. They should always be 

out of the reach of children and the wagging 

tail of a happy canine. 

“Check all holiday electrical lights for 

damage,” said Hafey. “Repair properly as 

needed or discard when necessary. Unplug 

them when you leave the house or go to bed. 

Make sure your artificial tree has a fireretardant 

rating. It should say so on the box.”

A freshly decorated fir or pine is an icon 

of the season, but live holiday trees need to 

be watered frequently and no flame or heat 

sources should be located nearby. Discard 

them when needles become brittle or fall 

off in substantial amounts. 

Do not overload electrical outlets or 

extension cords with more light strands 

than for which they are rated. 

While there are special situations to 

look out for during the holiday season, fire 

safety awareness is a 365-day concern. 

Hafey offers the following tips to follow 

throughout the year–have working smoke 

detectors in all bedrooms and on all levels 

of the home; buy a fire extinguisher and 

learn how to use it; if you smoke, use non 

tipping ashtrays and never smoke in bed. 

“We do have a program for Hamilton 

Township residents to be provided with and 

have installed a smoke detector,” said 

Hafey. “Captain Edwards, our community 

paramedic is in charge of the program and 

can be contacted at Station 172 at 614-491- 

1042. At this time, we do not have a program 

for CO detectors. The life expectancy 

of both type of detectors is about 10 years. 

After that, the sensors in the detectors don't 

function as well or not at all which cause 

the detector to not activate when needed.” 

Clearly post your house number on your 

house or mailbox in the event of an emergency. 

Keep matches and lighters out of the 

reach of children and do not leave anything 

cooking or baking unattended.

Lockbourne Air Force Base 

According to “Crossroads of Liberty, a 

Pictorial Tribute to 

Lockbourne/Rickenbacker AFB-ANGB- 

IAP,” written by Robert M. Stroup II and 

advised by military historian Donald C. 

Porter, before Pearl Harbor was attacked 

in 1941, plans were already underway to 

construct an airfield near the village of 

Lockbourne.A site was surveyed on Oct. 

23, 1941 that consisted of over 1,500 acres. 

On Jan. 2, 1942, authorization was 

received to proceed with construction of 

base facilities. On January 17, a directive 

was issued approving the acquisition of 33 

parcels of land of different sizes and various 

ownerships, mostly in the form of 

farmland. 

Construction began on facilities to first 

accommodate training for glider pilots, 

then B-17 pilots. Following the end of the 

war, Lockbourne’s mission shifted to support 

of the fledgling Air Force, National 

Guard and Reserve. 

The Tuskegee Airmen were an important 

part of the base’s history in the late 

1940s, as well as the Strategic Air 

Command in later years. Lockbourne 

nearly doubled in size in the 1950s due to 

the Korean War, necessitating another 

acquisition of local land. 

In 1974, Lockbourne was renamed 

Rickenbacker Air Force Base in honor of 

Eddie Rickenbacker. Five years later, following 

re-alignment recommendations at 

the federal level, the base started closing 

down after SAC operations were transferred 

elsewhere.

It’s time to bundle up and put on your hiking shoes 


By Kristy Zurbrick 

Madison County Editor 

This year’s Winter Hike Series rewards include a new hiking patch featuring a fox 

design. Anyone who completes hikes at seven or more of the featured parks earns a 

patch. 

Go on your own time or join other hikers 

at designated times—or do both! The 49th 

Annual Winter Hike Series offers lots of 

options for getting out into nature during 

the year’s colder months. 

Hosted by Columbus and Franklin 

County Metro Parks, the upcoming hike 

series encourages folks to visit some or all 

of 18 parks in the system, three of which 

cross over into Madison County. The program 

runs from December through 

January. 

While participants can hike any park at 

any time during the three-month period, 

the park system is highlighting certain 

parks each month and offering opportunities 

to gather with other hikers. 

In December, the featured parks are 

Battelle Darby Creek, Blacklick Woods, 

Highbanks, Homestead, and Inniswood. 

Participants can enjoy twinkling light displays 

and hot chocolate from 5 to 7 p.m. on 

Sundays at these parks. Additionally, 

evening lantern walks and hot chocolate 

will be offered at Chestnut Ridge Dec. 17- 

18. 

In January, the featured parks will offer 

refreshments from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on certain 

days: Blendon Woods (Jan. 8, chicken 

noodle soup), Sharon Woods (Jan. 9, shredded 

chicken sandwiches), Scioto Audubon 

(Jan. 15, hot dogs), Clear Creek (Jan. 22, 

doughnuts), Prairie Oaks (Jan. 23, cinnamon 

rolls), and Three Creeks (Jan. 29, 

sausage biscuits). 

In February, the featured parks are 

Glacier Ridge, Pickerington Ponds, Rocky 

Fork, Scioto Grove, Slate Run, and Walnut 


Woods. Participants can search for and 

take home wooden ornaments on trails at 

these parks, plus enjoy campfires from 10 

a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sundays. 

Anyone who completes hikes at seven or 

more of the parks earns a hiking patch. It’s 

a new patch this year, featuring a fox 

design. 

Anyone who completes all 18 hikes and 

signs up to be a Friends of the Metro Parks 

member ($10) earns a hiking stick and a 

medallion for the stick. To track completed 

park visits, pick up a hike card at any of 

the parks featured in December, then flag 

down a park ranger to stamp the card after 

each visit. 

Patches, sticks and medallions will be 

distributed at the end of the series during a 

celebration at Blacklick Woods Golf 

Course. 

During the event, planned for Feb. 27 

from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., visitors can hike the 

trails at the course, enjoy hot chocolate and 

a campfire, and borrow skates to glide 

around the ice rink. 

For more information about the Winter 

Hike Series and directions to each park, 

visit www.metroparks.net/events/. 

The three parks that cross over into 

Madison County are Battelle Darby Creek, 

Glacier Ridge and Prairie Oaks.

I am not someone who makes fun of those who enjoy 

an escape into the enchanting land of the holiday 

romantic comedy, but I am also not someone who typically 

wants to spend time in that world either. 

In my opinion, they are the schmaltziest romantic 

comedies put on steroids — triple the fluff, quadruple 

the sentimentality, and raise the level of sweetness to 

an intolerable degree. They are very much too much, 

which I am beginning to suspect may be a part of the 

general appeal. 

With these closely-held feelings in mind, it came as 

a big surprise to me when I found myself desiring a 

journey into the world of unnatural holiday romantic 

comedy escapist fare. I think I might have to lay the 

blame at the feet of Wham! 

It was a few weeks back when the band’s poppy 

albeit sad hit “Last Christmas” spent hours running 

through my head, which in turn made me want to 

revisit the aptly titled 2019 British film that was 

inspired by this song and the work of the late and great 

George Michael. Since it wasn’t streaming for free on 

any platforms, I placed “Last Christmas” into my 

queue at the library and then was suddenly compelled 

to look for more of its kind until my mental list of “holiday 

romantic comedies to watch” started to rival that 

of the 24-hour lineup on the Hallmark channel. 

During this bizarre snowball effect to which I had 

little control of my burgeoning holiday romantic comedy 

impulses, I came across a new film on Netflix called 

“Single All the Way.” While I quickly realized that I 

am not exactly the target demographic for this movie — 

it is directed more toward gay men — it just looked so 

sweet that I couldn’t resist its lure. 

“Single All the Way” does not break any new ground 

in regard to the material within the traditional holiday 

romantic comedy, but it is groundbreaking in a way 

because it does not succumb to the popular tropes that 

so many films that feature gay people, or specifically 

gay couples, do. In this film, there are no unaccepting 

friends or families, nor are there any awkward coming 

out moments. There are no side eyes or harmful words 

tossed their way when out and about with their potential 

partners, showing affecting in public as others do. 

Instead, “Single All the Way” is just an unapologetically 

happy flick that is funny and delightful and a true 

holiday gift for all. 

Infusing the film with most of its potent charm is 

Michael Urie and Philemon Chambers who play longtime 

friends and roommates Peter and Nick, respectively. 

Despite having a “meet cute” moment upon 

their arrival in L.A. years prior, they have decided to 

keep their relationship strictly platonic though both 

have harbored crushes on the other from time to time. 

When the film begins, the perpetually single Peter 

is finally in a romantic relationship with a dreamy cardiologist 

who is quickly stealing his heart (lots of heart 

pun jokes to start the film — always a good sign). 

Believing their relationship to be serious, he invites 

Tim (Steven Lund) to join him in New Hampshire for 

Christmas with his family and is ecstatic when he 

accepts the request. 

As things 

are apt to 

do, real life 

(and uncovered 

lies) brings an abrupt end to 

Peter’s blossoming new relationship, 

leaving him brokenhearted 

and wavering in going back to see 

his well-intentioned but meddling 

loved ones. “They always see (his 

singleness) as a problem to be 

solved,” he laments to Nick. 

Knowing that Nick has no 

plans for the holidays, Peter begs 

him to travel to across the country 

in order to pretend to be a 

couple to appease his family, a 


“Single All the Way” warms the heart 

The Reel Deal 

Dedra 

Cordle 

fantastic ensemble cast led by Kathy Najimy who 

plays his mother Carole (as in “Christmas Carole”), 

Jennifer Coolidge as his eccentric Aunt Sandy, and 

Jennifer Robertson as his upbeat and uptight sister 

Lisa. 

When the duo arrive in the small ski town that runs 

primarily on holiday cheer, their plans of romantic 

subterfuge crumble when Carole announces that she 

has already set Peter up on a blind date with her personal 

trainer James (Luke Macfarlane). Knowing his 

mother’s obsession with his dating life, Peter agrees to 

go on what is sure to be a disastrous date. But just as 

Peter realizes that time spent with James might not be 

all that bad, the rest of his family becomes convinced 

that Nick is the right man for Peter — and they are 

going to do everything in their power to make sure 

these two realize they are in love. 

What makes “Single All the Way” such a fun watch 

is how it combines some of the best tropes in romantic 

comedies, not just holiday themed ones. It has meddling 

families, squabbling families, families coming 

together for a singular purpose, longing looks, a 

wrench in the plan, homesickness, and the delightful 

friends to lovers aspect. In this film, however, there is 

some question as to whether Peter and Nick will get 

together as both have reservations about possibly losing 

their friendship should any potential romantic 

relationship go sour. 

While we all ultimately know how it will end, the 

cast makes it a blast to get to that point, infusing the 

film at nearly every scene with warmth and humor and 

joy. You can tell that everyone is having a great time 

on this set, and that sense of enjoyment translates to 

the viewer as well. 

Though not a perfect film — there are pacing issues 

and some clunky dialogue — “Single All the Way” is an 

infectiously joyful movie, one that is sure to warm the 

heart of any true holiday romcom lover, and possibly 

even the ones who are slowly thawing to its awesome 

powers of feel-goodness.
