On Nov. 4, the village of Plain City held<br />

a ribbon-cutting and dedication ceremony<br />

for their newly renovated basketball/pickleball<br />

courts at Pastime Park.<br />

The courts are located near the park’s<br />

main entrance at North Chillicothe and Second<br />

streets. Previously, the space was home<br />

to two full-size basketball courts that had<br />

become unusable due to deterioration of the<br />

asphalt surface.<br />

The renovation covers the same footprint<br />

as the previous space and includes two new<br />

basketball courts, complete with new backboards.<br />

The same surface also is marked for<br />

six full pickleball courts. The pickleball nets<br />

are on wheels so they can be moved into<br />

place for pickleball or out of place to make<br />

room for basketball play. The project also<br />

included new fencing all around and a new<br />

handicap parking space.<br />

The village’s decision to include pickleball<br />

court markings and equipment was<br />

based on resident feedback about desired<br />

park and recreation amenities and the increased<br />

interest in the sport in general, said<br />

Haley Lupton, village manager.<br />

London city officials must go back to the<br />

drawing board. Voters turned down the<br />

city’s request for a 0.4 percent income tax<br />

increase to provide the fire and EMS department<br />

with additional funding and to build a<br />

new police department facility.<br />

The request appeared on the Nov. 8 general<br />

election ballot. The vote tally as reported<br />

by the <strong>Madison</strong> County Board of<br />

Elections on Election Night showed the levy<br />

failing 1,223-1,614 (43.11 percent for the<br />

levy, 56.89 percent against the levy).<br />

Had the levy passed, 0.25 percent of the<br />

0.4 percent income tax increase would have<br />

gone to funding for fire/EMS. The other 0.15<br />

percent would have gone toward debt service<br />

for a new police department.<br />

“I am disappointed that the levy didn’t<br />

pass,” said Mayor Patrick Closser. “We understand<br />

with the state of the economy and<br />

inflation this would be a difficult levy to<br />

pass, but these dollars are needed for our<br />

safety services.<br />

“We will now reevaluate the budget and<br />

make some tough decisions while continuing<br />

to serve the citizens to the best of our<br />

ability.”<br />

Closser thanked the levy committee and<br />

the residents who voted for the levy.<br />

“Even when things don’t go your way,<br />

there are always positives,” he added. “We<br />

gained almost 11 percent in yes votes compared<br />

to the last election, and it was a close<br />

vote for a new levy.”<br />

Other levies<br />

The other levies that appeared on the<br />

ballot in <strong>Madison</strong> County passed. The results<br />

were as follows:<br />

• <strong>Madison</strong> County Board of Developmental<br />

Disabilities—five-year renewal of a 1-mill levy<br />

for operation and maintenance of programs<br />

for people with disabilities<br />

For the levy ......................9,812 (71.88%)<br />

Against the levy ..............3,838 (28.12%)<br />

• 9-1-1 system—five-year renewal of a 1-<br />

mill levy for the 9-1-1 emergency call system<br />

For the levy ......................9,877 (72.11%)<br />

Against the levy ..............3,820 (27.89%)<br />

LHS puts cyber-punk spin on ‘Romeo & Juliet’<br />

By Kristy Zurbrick<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />

London High School’s drama department<br />

is putting their own cyber-punk, futuristic<br />

twist on an old (very old) classic, “Romeo &<br />

Juliet.” Think dark costumes, neon accents<br />

and lighting, fog machines, and martial arts<br />

bow staffs in place of swords.<br />

“There aren’t a lot of science fiction plays<br />

to do on stage. I just started teaching a scifi<br />

class this fall. And I grew up in the ‘80s<br />

Dwyer<br />

Chiro<br />

2x6<br />

when ‘Bladerunner’ was a thing. All of that<br />

was in my head when I was deciding what<br />

to do for this year’s play,” said Scott Blanton,<br />

English teacher and play director.<br />

This marks the third time Blanton has<br />

staged “Romeo & Juliet” at London High<br />

School. He’s done a contemporary version,<br />

but this is the first time he has set the wellknown<br />

story of star-crossed lovers and feuding<br />

families in the future.<br />

“I didn’t know how the students would<br />

react to the idea,” Blanton said. “They were<br />

really excited when I said I wanted to go in a<br />

cyber-punk direction, and they got on board<br />

immediately when I said we were doing it<br />

with ‘Romeo & Juliet.’ They were all in.”<br />

While the setting is different, the language<br />

is not. The cast is sticking with<br />

Shakespeare’s original wording, and Blanton<br />

is impressed with how well the actors<br />

have taken to it.<br />

“What I like about all these kids is they<br />

really try to understand what they’re saying.<br />

We’ve taken time to make sure they know<br />

what the lines mean and how to say them,”<br />

he explained, adding that the text’s rhythm<br />

and rhyme has proven easier for students to<br />

memorize than traditional dialogue.<br />

Isaiah Capell, a sophomore, plays Romeo.<br />

Blanton said Capell was an easy pick for the<br />

role.<br />

“Trying to do a cold read of Shakespeare<br />

can be difficult, and Isaiah read well the<br />

first tryout. He has a lot of enthusiasm for<br />

the part,” he said.<br />

Playing opposite Capell as Juliet is senior<br />

Kyleigh Wilson, who, according to Blanton,<br />

has really dedicated herself to<br />

memorizing and knowing what Juliet is saying<br />

with her lines. Blanton describes Wilson<br />

as a confident, reliable performer.<br />

Other seniors in the cast include Evie<br />

Gillilan as the nurse.<br />

“She’s another one who when she tried<br />

out, you just knew she was right for the role.<br />

She wanted to play that part and played it<br />

well from the beginning. She’s a really talented<br />

actress. Playing an older character<br />

can be difficult for a high school student, but<br />

she really pulls it off,” Blanton said.<br />

Seniors Olivia Davitt and Jordan Anderson<br />

are each holding down two jobs as part<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County Board of Developmental<br />

Disabilities is seeking people interested in<br />

performing in this year’s Christmas<br />

Cabaret. The event will take place at 7 p.m.<br />

Dec. 14 at London Christian Fellowship<br />

Church, 255 U.S. Rte. 42, London.<br />

The board is looking for individuals they<br />

serve, as well as family, friends, staff, and<br />

other community members interested in<br />

ping-pong using a paddle and a plastic ball<br />

with holes. Anyone of any age or skill level<br />

can play. The sport can be played one-onone<br />

or two-on-two. Rules of the game can be<br />

found on the village’s website, plaincity.com;<br />

go to the “Parks & Rec” tab and<br />

click on “Sand Volleyball/Pickleball.”<br />

“It’s something new and fresh,” said Denton<br />

Kitts, Plain City parks and recreation<br />

assistant, about the multi-use courts.<br />

Among members of London High School’s cast of “Romeo & Juliet” are: (front row, from<br />

left) Gael Juarez Perez, Tate Wilson, Jamie Davis, Emmelia Rafferty, Kaity Chastain; (second<br />

row) Olivia Davitt, Sara Studebaker, Isaiah Capell, Kyleigh Wilson, Isabella Kerry,<br />

Chloee King, Kaelyn Thoman; (back row) Jordan Anderson, Lily Beyer, Ethan Davitt,<br />

Quinton Brown and Lucas Lister.<br />

of the production. On stage, Davitt performs<br />

as the prince in charge of Verona and breaking<br />

up the many fights; off-stage, she serves<br />

as the play’s stage manager. In addition to<br />

playing one of the fighters, Anderson oversees<br />

organization of the prop table.<br />

Senior Anthony Holfinger, who Blanton<br />

describes as a solid, reliable performer,<br />

serves as the narrator, showing up at the<br />

beginning, middle, and end of the show. His<br />

classmate, Sam Homan, is putting his athleticism<br />

and coordination to work as the bow<br />

staff-wielding Mercutio. A member of the<br />

high school band’s fall and winter guard,<br />

Homan has the skills to move well on stage.<br />

Yet another senior, Kelley Tuttle, is lending<br />

her talents to the production, by choreographing<br />

all of the fight scenes. Her training<br />

in stage combat is coming in handy.<br />

Blanton said he has been enjoying preparation<br />

for the play as much as the students.<br />

“It’s fun as an English teacher to work<br />

with kids on a Shakespeare play because<br />

you can really dig in. You have a greater appreciation<br />

of Shakespeare when performing<br />

it than when learning it in a classroom. It<br />

comes alive,” he said.<br />

London High School’s production of<br />

“Romeo & Juliet” is set for 7 p.m. Nov. 18-19<br />

and 2 p.m. Nov. 20. Tickets are $8 at the door.<br />

DD Board seeks Cabaret performers<br />

helping to spread some holiday cheer. This<br />

event is back by popular demand after successful<br />

programs in December 2019 and the<br />

post-pandemic return in December 2021.<br />

Anyone who would like to perform in the<br />

Cabaret—sing, dance, juggle, play an instrument,<br />

etc.—is asked to contact Jeff Gates as<br />

soon as possible at (740) 852-7050, ext.<br />

1814, or jeff.gates@madison.oh.gov.<br />

Linda Granger, parks and recreation director,<br />

said she hopes to find someone who<br />

can teach a pickleball class. Residents also<br />

have expressed interest in starting pickleball<br />

leagues.<br />

One pickleball set of four paddles and a<br />

ball are available to checkout at the park office,<br />

Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. For details,<br />

call (614) 873-3527, ext. 108.<br />

An $83,000 Nature Works grant from the<br />

Ohio Department of Natural Resources covered<br />

approximately one-third of the cost of<br />

the project.

4,649 food items collected in BEE the Change drive<br />

By Kristy Zurbrick<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />

In support of World Food Day and Make<br />

a Difference Day in October, Mount Sterling<br />

Mayor Marci Darlington organized “BEE<br />

the Change,” a friendly competition in<br />

which London, Mount Sterling, Plain City<br />

and West Jefferson competed to see which<br />

community could collect the most non-perishable<br />

food items to donate to local food<br />

pantries.<br />

The finally tally is in. Together, the four<br />

communities collected a grand total of 4,649<br />

food items, as well as cash donations. These<br />

donations were delivered to five food<br />

pantries around the county.<br />

London collected the most items at 2,147.<br />

Students at London Elementary School<br />

competed to see which class could bring in<br />

the most donations; the winning class enjoyed<br />

an ice cream party. That effort accounted<br />

for 1,700 of the city’s 2,147 items.<br />

West Jefferson collected 2,001 items,<br />

while Mount Sterling collected 379 items<br />

and Plain City collected 122 items.<br />

Darlington is pleased with the way she<br />

and her fellow mayors came together for a<br />

good cause. This is the second time she has<br />

rallied the four communities to help others.<br />

Late last year, they collected everything<br />

from bottled water to baby formula to send<br />

to tornado-ravaged Mayfield, Ky.<br />

“With BEE the Change, I threw it at<br />

them (the other mayors) and they were,<br />

like, ‘Yup, let’s do it,’” Darlington said. “I<br />

think it looks good for <strong>Madison</strong> County as a<br />

whole when the mayors can come together<br />

and do something that’s impactful for all of<br />

our communities.”<br />

The food pantries that benefited from the<br />

food drive are the Mount Sterling Community<br />

Center food pantry, Good Samaritan<br />

Food Pantry in West Jefferson, DNA/Plain<br />

City Food Pantry, and London Food Pantry<br />

and HELP House in London.<br />

Playful Reno and laid-back Peanut looking for homes<br />

The following are among the pets up for adoption at<br />

the Humane Society of <strong>Madison</strong> County.<br />

Reno<br />

Reno is a big goof with a big bowling ball head, and<br />

he comes with the best personality ever. With an estimated<br />

birthday of October 2020, shelter staff believe he<br />

is a pure American bulldog. This sweet boy weighs in<br />

at a whopping 75 pounds, and he loves to be out and<br />

about with his people, soaking up as much love as he<br />

can get. He loves treats and will shine for the camera if<br />

you have a treat in hand.<br />

He is a smart guy that could gladly learn anything<br />

you want to teach him. Reno already knows his basic<br />

commands and loves to keep his kennel clean and tidy.<br />

He seems to like other dogs that are his size and that<br />

match his playful personality. He has made a few doggy<br />

friends here at the shelter, but a slow introduction<br />

when meeting new dogs is always best. As far as cats<br />

and small animals, Reno is not a fan. He would need to<br />

go to a home without those things. He doesn’t always<br />

realize his size and since he is a big, playful boy, he<br />

could unintentionally knock down a small kiddo.<br />

He loves to play and would love to have a bigger/older<br />

kid with dog experience to play with him. In Reno’s forever<br />

home, he would thrive with a fenced-in yard with<br />

lots of room to run and burn off his energy. What Reno<br />

loves most is sharing his goofy and loving personality.<br />

He feels no shame giving lots of wet, slobbery bulldog<br />

kisses and will climb into your lap, thinking he is a<br />

small dog. This handsome hunk has so much love to<br />

give, the family who he can share his love with will be<br />

so lucky.<br />

Peanut is a larger lady, about 4 years old and currently weighs<br />

in at 16 pounds. She could stand to lose a few pounds, but shelter<br />

staff hasn’t had the heart to have that conversation with her yet.<br />

This wonderful young lady was brought to the shelter due to not<br />

fault of her own, but because her previous owners were no longer<br />

able to care for her. Peanut has gotten along very well with the kitties<br />

she has met at the shelter. She hasn’t been introduced to any<br />

doggos, but with slow and proper introductions to both cats and<br />

dogs, she should do just fine. Peanut has experience with children,<br />

as she was around them in her previous home.<br />

This wonderful girl is eagerly awaiting her purrever home. If<br />

you would like to meet this sweet girl, complete an application and<br />

come meet Peanut.<br />

The adoption fee is $80 for kittens up to 6 months old and $60<br />

for cats 7 months and older. It includes: a FeLV/FIV test, spay or<br />

neuter, set of shots, deworming, and a one-year rabies shot (if old<br />

enough). Fees can be paid by cash or credit card.<br />

The West Jefferson defense converges on Coal Grove running back Steven Simpson to<br />

make the stop.<br />

Roughriders fight good<br />

fight but come up short<br />

By Jeff Pfeil<br />

Staff Photographer<br />

The West Jefferson Roughriders traveled<br />

to Coal Grove on Nov. 4 to take on the Hornets<br />

in OHSAA Div. VI Region 23 football<br />

action. The Riders put on a good try but<br />

came up short in a 47-40 loss.<br />

The Roughriders fell behind early 23-0<br />

before scoring a touchdown in the second<br />

quarter on an Ethan Hostetler 18-yard run<br />

to trim the score to 23-7. After recovering an<br />

onside kick, the Riders moved the ball to the<br />

1-yard line only to be denied before the first<br />

half ended.<br />

Coal Grove scored a touchdown in the<br />

third quarter and another in the fourth to<br />

take a 39-13 lead after West Jefferson scored<br />

a lone touchdown on an Austin Buescher<br />

pass to Luke Taylor in the third quarter.<br />

West Jefferson dominated the fourth<br />

quarter. With 10:09 on the clock, Buescher<br />

passed to Mason Book for a touchdown, and<br />

a 2-point conversion set up three more<br />

scores after recovering three onside kicks.<br />

Passes to Book at 8:31, Salyer at 8:01 and<br />

Book again at 7:08 put the Roughriders on<br />

top with a 40-39 lead.<br />

A deep kickoff that went out of bounds<br />

set up the Coal Grove offense to go on a<br />

touchdown drive with Chase Hall running<br />

in for the winning touchdown with 3:47 left<br />

in the game. The Riders came up short on<br />

their final drive of the night.<br />

Chase Hall led all rushers with 305<br />

yards on 36 attempts and four touchdowns.<br />

Austin Buescher led West Jefferson in passing<br />

with 24 completions on 396 attempts for<br />

316 yards and five touchdown passes.<br />

West Jefferson ended the season with a<br />

record of 5-7.<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County, Ohio alleging that Defendant, Agency Management, Inc., has or claims to have<br />

an interest in the mortgage recorded with the <strong>Madison</strong> County Recorder’s Office as Volume 319,<br />

Page 0106-0111, on December 15, 1993, involving the real estate described as follows: Situated<br />

in the State of Ohio, County of <strong>Madison</strong>, and in the City of West Jefferson, and being Lot No. 326<br />

of Westwood Estates Section #3, as the same is numbered and delineated upon the recorded plat<br />

that said Mortgage has been fully paid, is no longer an encumbrance on the Property and is<br />

declared satisfied of record; and an order requiring the County Recorder of <strong>Madison</strong> County to<br />

record said Judgment Entry in the public records as full and final release of the mortgage filed as<br />
