Wreaths for
remembrance
Messenger photos by Dedra Cordle
Residents of the southwest and westside
communities gathered at Concord
Cemetery in Grove City on Dec. 17 to
participate in Wreaths Across America, a
nationwide commemorative event
whose mission is to remember the country’s
fallen veterans, honor those who
currently serve, and teach the next generation
the value of freedom. Among
those who laid wreaths at the final resting
place of local members of the armed
forces was Trenton McCall, (top right) a
freshman at Central Crossing High
School. McCall is a cadet with the
school’s NJROTC program which has
sponsored the ceremony at the cemetery
for the past two years. He is pictured
here placing a wreath at the
gravesite of Oliver Jones, a member of
the Army who served in World War II.
Grove City resident Millie Siers (bottom

of veteran Vernon A. Young before
placing the wreath near his name. She
said she and her husband, Matt, wanted
to attend the ceremony to pay their
respects to deceased veterans and “do
something good” for the community.
City to demolish
bat-infested barn
By Andrea Cordle
Grove City Editor
Grove City officials plan to demolish the
barn that has been a fixture at Gantz Park
for decades.
According to William Vedra, deputy city
administrator for the city, a colony of bats
caused extensive damage to the barn. He
said bat waste has been found in the wood,
dry wall, ceiling tiles, duct work, and into
the concrete block walls.
“We are not confident that we can make
the structure safe for people, especially for
young kids,” said Vedra. “Economically, it
makes more sense to demolish the building.
There is just so much contamination.”
Prior to the discovery of the bats, the
barn housed the city’s popular RecSchool
program for pre-school aged children.
Earlier this year, a facility maintenance
employee found bat droppings inside the
structure. City officials then contacted an

exterminator, who found evidence of bat bugs inside
the barn. A consultant also observed the barn in the
evening and confirmed that a colony of bats were living
inside the structure. A colony can include hundreds of
bats.
The city had the roof of the barn removed so the
bats would fly out. The roof was then covered to prevent
the flying mammals from reentry, though it has
been reported that some have found a way back in.
According to city officials, the damaged barn is not
covered under the city’s insurance policy.
Vedra said the city plans to have a contractor examine
the structure to give a price for demolition. He also
said the city will work with the EPA, the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources, and other state
agencies to complete all the necessary permits before
demolishing the barn.

Officials discuss fireworks retail store
By Andrea Cordle
Grove City Editor
At a recent council meeting, Grove City officials
addressed a hot topic in the social media realm —
Phantom Fireworks and its interest in operating a
retail store in the city.
According to Deputy City Administrator William
Vedra, city leaders learned of the company’s interest in
the facility at 1700 Buckeye Place this past summer.
The location is where the old HH Gregg store was
housed.
“Since that time, we have been trying to get our
head around the complex process of permitting and
licensing a fireworks retail establishment,” said
Vedra.
Council members said they have been contacted by
citizens who are concerned about this type of establishment
in the city.
“We’ve had calls and emails from residents asking
how the city could allow this,” said Roby Schottke. “We
do not approve leases for commercial spaces.”
According to Stephen Smith, the city’s law director,
Grove City is not permitted by law to get involved in
private leases.
“We don’t have the ability to impair the contract
between two parties,” said Smith. “All we do is set the
zoning in terms of what uses are allowed at this property.”
City officials said they rarely know when property
changes hands unless it requires a building permit.
Vedra said licensing a fireworks retail store
involves the state fire marshal and the office on industrial
compliance. The Jackson Township Fire
Department would perform ongoing inspections.
Blood drives in Grove City
The American Red Cross will host a blood drive
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 29 at Mount Carmel Grove
City, 5300 North Meadows Drive and from 10:30 a.m.
to 3:30 p.m. Dec. 29 at the Grove City Library, 3959
Broadway. To schedule an appointment, call 1-800-

community events
Vedra believes the change in the state law has
increased demand in the market and made it more
attractive for businesses like Phantom Fireworks to
find additional locations.
The new Ohio law, which went into effect in July,
allows individuals to possess consumer grade fireworks
and to discharge them on their own property on
the following days: New Year’s Day, Chinese New
Year, Cinco de Mayo, Memorial Day weekend,
Juneteenth, July 3-5, and the Fridays, Saturdays, and
Sundays preceding Labor Day weekend, Diwali, and
New Year’s Eve.
However, the state law enables local governments
to restrict the dates and times when an individual may
discharge fireworks or to impose a complete ban on the
use of consumer-grade fireworks.
“Local governments can determine if they want fireworks
to go off. A lot of cities allow it on certain days,
like July 4,” said Smith.
Fireworks are still prohibited in Grove City.
Council president Ted Berry asked if the city could
require the fireworks establishment to hand out literature
with the sale of the products that would let customers
know that they are not permitted to set off the
explosives in the city of Grove City.
Smith said that is something that has been brought
up and that they are exploring. The law director said
the city does intend to work with Phantom Fireworks
and the surrounding businesses to inform them of
what is and what is not permitted.
The Messenger reached out to Phantom Fireworks
for comment, but as of press time has not heard back.
Vedra said there is no word yet on when the company
will move into the city. He said they are still in the
inspection process and have yet to file an occupancy
permit.

to make sure we are not endangering anything,” said
Vedra.
The demolition date has yet to be determined.
RecSchool, the nature-based preschool program
operated by the city’s parks and recreation department,
was cancelled when city officials learned about
the bat colony. RecSchool operated from September
through May and could accommodate more than 100
children.
According to Vedra, the city has had a modified
hybrid program to replace the RecSchool offering. He
said it has been more of a program that is not tied to
the school year. The city has had a small group of kids
at the Kingston Center that take field trips to the local
parks.
As far as a permanent plan to replace RecSchool,
Vedra said, “We are exploring options.”

In Education
Financial outlook remains
stable in South-Western
By Dedra Cordle
Staff Writer
The South-Western City School
District’s annual financial review was presented
at the December board of education
meeting.
Although the district saw a decline in its
general fund revenues and an increase in
its general fund expenditures, officials say
the financial outlook of the district continues
to be strong.
According to Treasurer Hugh Garside,
fiscal year 2021-22 saw the overall revenue
decrease by almost 2 percent. He said the
panic button need not be hit by that news.
“Now, before you get shocked by our revenues
decreasing, overall in the state of
Ohio there was a pretty significant change
that happened in the state’s biennial budget,”
he said.
Garside explained that the state will no
longer provide funds for districts to account
for students who are categorized as community
school students or scholarship students.
Instead, he said the state will cover
the cost rather than provide funds for the
districts as they have done in previous fiscal
years.
He added that the district received
roughly $15 million through the state for
its community school and scholarship students.
Garside said that while the state’s decision
to fund the programs could have been
a big financial hit, the move will ultimately
be considered a wash as the district will no
longer have to include those programs in
their expenditures.
Some of the positive items of note in the
district’s overall revenues, said Garside, is
that they have received a number of
Medicaid reconciliation payments to the
tune of $1 million each, they have received
a number of payment in lieu of taxes from
settlements with commercial properties,
and they have a healthy residential and
commercial tax base.
“Fifty-five percent of our property tax
revenues come from our residential and
agricultural tax base, but this district also
has a pretty strong commercial industrial
tax base as well,” he said, noting that 45
percent of the district’s revenue funds is
attributed to commercial and industrial
properties.
According to Garside, the district’s total
general fund revenue for fiscal year 2021-
22 was $288 million, down $5 million from
the previous fiscal year.
On the expenditure side, the district
saw a slight increase of roughly 1.5 percent;
the total general fund expenditures
for the 2021-22 fiscal year was $277.37 million.
Garside said some of the rise in expenditures
can be attributed to an increase of
salaries and benefits for the district’s certificated
and classified employees, the
“final push” of the Ohio Facilities
Construction Commission middle school
build project, and an overall rise in the cost
of materials and supplies.
He said he anticipates that the Capital
Projects Fund will go down in the next fiscal
year as the district has completed the
middle school build project. The 2021-22
fiscal year saw the district spend $86.54
million to cover the cost of its permanent
improvement projects.
Despite the slight decrease in the revenue
and the slight increase in expenditures,
Garside said the district’s finances
are stable and he sees no need for the board
to request an operating levy at this time.
He added that the district has maintained,
and will continue to maintain, a positive
cash balance of roughly 5 to 10 months
throughout the next five-years, if not
beyond that duration of time.

Government Focus
Livestock could be back
on the table in Urbancrest
By Dedra Cordle
Staff Writer
The village of Urbancrest could allow
eggs and poultry to come back to the table
next year.
At its meeting in December, the village
council discussed the merits of revisiting
legislation that prohibits the raising of
farm animals and livestock on residential
properties.
The call to reconsider the legislation
that was passed in 2021 was introduced by
councilman Lacy Wallace Jr., who also
serves on the health and safety committee.
According to Wallace Jr., a number of
residents have addressed the committee
seeking allowance to raise chickens in their
backyards. Wallace Jr. was not on the
council when the legislation was passed
last spring, but he said he did research
after hearing from the residents and
believes the topic should be revisited by the
entire council.
“I think there are several benefits to
having backyard chickens,” he said. “One is
it helps kid get involved, socializing with
others, and it gets them off the gaming
(consoles).”
An additional reason the legislation
should be reconsidered, he said, is the current
state of the country’s economy and the
soaring cost of groceries caused by inflation.
“Eggs and poultry are expensive,” he
said in an interview after the meeting. “I
feel a family could go broke buying poultry
and eggs for their families because it is so
expensive right now.
“It is an economic issue for our constituents
and raising poultry and having
hens that lay eggs could be beneficial to
their financial situation.”
When Wallace Jr. brought up the topic
to the full council, many who were active
members at that time expressed concern
over revising the legislation.
“It was a lot,” said councilman Steven
Larkins. “A lot of time, a lot of back-andforth,
a lot of fighting over what was in the
legislation.”
Councilwoman Shawn Moore said she
was hesitant to express support for the
idea because she has doubts that roosters
would not find their way back to the village.
Wallace Jr. said the council could still

news and notes
prohibit roosters or any other farm animals
and livestock from being raised on residential
properties.
“I don’t want to see or hear any of that
either,” he said.
The council did not act on the request at
its regular meeting, primarily because
Wallace Jr. stated the committee would
ask the full legislative body to formally
reconsider the farm animal and livestock
prohibition legislation early next year.
Village code enforcement officer Randall
Bogue said in an interview after the meeting
that he did not have an issue with
Wallace Jr. calling for the reconsideration
of the farm animal and livestock prohibition
legislation.
“He is not asking that the council allow
residents to raise any and all livestock, just
backyard chickens,” he said.
Bogue added that the council could
include new rules should residents be
allowed to raise chickens on their property,
such as a maximum allowance of poultry
on the lot, structural guidelines for the
coop, sanitary guidelines for the health and
safety of the community, and even a permit
fee.
“We’ll see what the council wants to do
with Mr. Wallace’s request in the coming
year and then go from there,” he said.
The farm animal prohibition legislation
was passed in May 2021 after months of
debate. The action came on the heels of residential
complaints that roosters were
“waking them up in the early morning
hours” and that there were pigs walking
throughout the community, leaving waste
behind and posing health hazards to
humans and their pets.
According to a door-to-door survey conducted
by members of the health and safety
committee at that time, a majority of
residents approved of the move to ban farm
animals and livestock within the village.
Under the ordinance, farm animals
include, but are not limited to, bison,
camels, chickens, donkeys, ducks, emus,
fox, geese, miniature donkeys, miniature
horses, mink, mules, ostrich, pheasant,
pigs, and turkeys.
Under the ordinance, livestock is
defined as alpacas, cattle, goats, captive
white-tail deer, goats, horses, llamas,
mules, poultry, and any other animal that
is raised or maintained domestically for
food or fiber.

Grove City resident Brenda Mocarski has published the children’s book, “Daddy Still
Loves Me.” This book helps children process their feelings when dealing with divorce
and alcoholism.
Helping kids cope with divorce
By Sarah Slayman
Staff Writer
Brenda Mocarski, of Grove City, has
self-published a book that aims to help
children cope with divorce and alcohol
abuse.
Mocarski, author of “Daddy Still Loves
Me,” is a retired pediatric nurse with a
degree in psychology. She is a child of
divorce herself, which she says, gives her a
unique perspective on just how wounding
the experience can be.
Mocarski didn’t write the children’s
book until her own grandchildren went
through a divorce. She said she struggled
to find the resources that would help them
cope with the family break-up. Her goal in
writing was to assure children that they
were not responsible for the divorce, the
parents did not divorce them, and they are
still loved. With encouragement from professional
counselors, she began to move
forward with publishing.
“Children rarely voice their fears or concerns,”
said Mocarski. “Reading this book
with the child opens the door for expressing
the feelings the child is experiencing
and assuring them they are still loved by
both parents.”
Because divorce is traumatic for the
parents as well, often they don’t see what
their kids are going through, said
Mocarski. She said they are usually too
young to verbalize emotions, or have not
been given the opportunity to do so.
The book is shared from a young child’s
perspective of divorce, and the pages walk
through statements of their emotions, perhaps
sadness or anger, and transition into
breaking down why it could be dangerous
to trust an alcoholic parent to be your caretaker.
Real-life examples are shared
throughout the book.
“Daddy Still Loves Me” is available
through Amazon, Kindle online, and
Barnes and Noble for $16.95. Mocarski
also sells copies for $15 via inquiries at
Daddystilllovesme@gmail.com.

Residents from the Community
Gardens Mobile Home Park attended a
recent Pleasant Township board meeting
to address concerns about water and
sewage.
According to the residents, this is a reoccurring
problem that affects everyone who
lives in the community. The problem has
been going on for the last several years,
first gaining attention when the park was
accused of dumping raw sewage into the
Darby River. The residents said now their
sewage problems are worse than ever.
Residents reported problems that
include pink water coming out of their
faucets, sewage backing up under mobile
homes, and a lack of water pressure. Some
residents reported that last year, they
went an entire week without water and
others said the sewer pumps do not support
the number of mobile homes in the
community.
Residents have reported the issues to
the park’s manager and maintenance staff,
but they said no one has been able to find
the owner.
“We don’t know who to report it to.
There is no one to call except the park
manager. Everyone drops off money somewhere
else. We already called the city and
the county,” one resident said.
Other residents shared concern for their
children’s safety with large sewer trenches
running through their backyards.
“We have tried to find the proper routes
to remedy this but the trailer park we stay
at is refusing to do anything,” another concerned
resident said.
The trustees said that they would help
the community get some answers.
“We will start making phone calls
tomorrow and track down somebody higher
to deal with. There has to be someone to
get a hold of,” board chairwoman Nancy
Hunter said.
The residents in the community wished
to keep their names out of print for fear of
retaliation.

STATE REPRESENTATIVE
Ohio
House
Committees
The committee structure of the Ohio House of
Representatives is where the bulk of the legislative
work gets completed. When a bill is introduced,
it is referred to the committee that deals
with its particular subject matter. It is discussed
publicly by House members. Interested parties
will testify about the pros and cons of the proposal
so that House members understand better
its effects and ramifications. Often times, it will be
modified to accommodate the concerns brought
forward in the hearings. If it is voted out of committee,
it then can be considered by the entire
House chamber. Should it get approved by the
House, it is then referred to the Ohio Senate,
where it undergoes a similar process. Only once
a bill gains the approval of both legislative chambers
can it get considered by the Governor for his
approval.
There will be 24 committees in the House in the
135th General Assembly. The committees are as
follows:
Agriculture & Conservation
Armed Services & Veterans Affairs
Behavioral Health & Recovery Supports
Civil justice
Criminal Justice
Economic & Workforce Development
Elections & Apportionment
Energy & Natural Resources
Families, Aging, & Human Services
Finance
Financial Institutions
Government Oversight
Health
Higher Education & Career Readiness
Infrastructure & Rural Development
Insurance
Labor, Commerce, & Pensions
Primary & Secondary Education
Public Safety, Corrections, & State Security
Public Utilities
State & Local Government
Technology & Innovation
Transportation
Ways & Means
House members will get assigned to committees
at the beginning of the General Assembly in early
January. Members are designating their preferences
to the new House leadership. I have identified
three House committees that I feel will enable
me to contribute the most for our district: Finance,
Technology & Innovation, and Primary &
Secondary Education. Alternatively, there are
three additional committees with which I feel I
can be helpful: Economic & Workforce Development,
Higher Education & Career Readiness, and
Ways & Means. The Speaker determines, based on
his assessment of a member’s expertise, experience,
and priorities and the needs of the entire
chamber, who will serve on each committee.
(Dave Dobos represents the new Ohio House of
Representatives 10th District, which consists of
most of the west and southwest sides of Columbus,
parts of the south side of Columbus, Grove
City, Urbancrest, and Franklin Township. He reports

It has been more than a decade since
director James Cameron released his science
fiction epic “Avatar” and the question
that has most often arisen throughout this
duration of time is whether it has any relevance
within the public sphere. Despite
fact-based evidence that it became the
highest-grossing box office hit of all time,
revolutionized the way computer graphic
imagery was used within the entertainment
industry, and somehow made people
believe that 3D television was the way of
the future, film critics and pop culture commentators
alike came to the consensus that
“Avatar” was but a blip on the radar of the
zeitgeist, having little to no cultural impact
on the hearts and minds of the masses.
As this entertaining, albeit rather pointless,
debate was taking place, Cameron
was steadily toiling away, stating his
intention to make not just one sequel to
“Avatar” but four additional movies within
this universe as well. The caveat, however,
was that none of them would be filmed
until he believed that visual effect technology
had caught up to the vision he had in
his head for the world of his creation.
When the announcement came nearly
five years ago that he would officially
return to Pandora, film critics and pop culture
commentators across the country
began to once again question whether anyone
would even care to revisit the lush
world that featured nine-foot tall blue catlike
natives clashing with humans as they
tried to strip mine their planet for
resources. Most believed that no one would
care to revisit that place, that it was a
waste of money, and that the public had
moved far away from this world and turned
to things such as the Marvel Cinematic
Universe, the streaming revolution, and all
other kinds of entertainment gamechanges.
What they seemed to have forgotten,
along with all that fact-based evidence presented
in the first paragraph, was that
“Avatar” created a quiet yet hardcore fanbase
that had people trying to learn the fictionalized
language of the native Pandoran
tribe, making hundreds of trips down to
Disney World to experience the related
attraction, and plunking down even more
money in this economy to see the original
film when it came back to theaters earlier
this fall. (Note: it even beat new theatrical
releases.) But perhaps the most egregious
oversight from those wondering whether
people would pay to see this sequel, or any
sequel thereafter, was that it was helmed
by Cameron. Say what you want about
him, but there is no questioning the sheer
spectacle of his movies. And if there is anything
the public wants to see, it is a visual
spectacle to the likes of which they have
not seen before on the silver screen.
Ultimately, this is what “Avatar: The
Way of Water” offers to the public: A
chance to be immersed in a lush new world
that is full of wonder, danger, and unimaginable
beauty. Describing this film can
sometimes come across like you are blowing
smoke up the tush, but in its 3D state
it is one of the most visually dazzling
movies to ever come on the big screen. The
picture is crisper, the technology more
advanced, and the motion-capture aspect
has improved by leaps and bounds from the
original film.
With all of that said, however, this film
also displays some of Cameron’s worse
traits, such as his flair for reminding people
that he is responsible for some of the
greatest movies of all time, his propensity
to use the same words repeatedly, and his
lack of detail to the story that is currently
being told. He seems to forget that the
audience wants answers to the questions
that was raised in the first film, that they
want answers to some of the questions that
are bubbling forth in the second, and that
they do not necessarily want to wait for all
the answers to be given to them in the slow
roll out of this franchise. My theory is that
either he does not care about answering
them as some threads left in the first film
were cut completely out of the second or he
feels secure in the relevancy of his world,
positive that the masses will come out to
see his vision regardless of his fast and
loose approach with the storylines. Sadly,
he is not mistaken as I know I am a part of
that segment that will come out and see it
because I do love this world that this maddening
man has created.
The sequel is set nearly two decades
after the events of the first film where we
find former Marine Jake Sully (Sam
Worthington), now fully transported into
his Na’vi avatar, living his best life with
his fierce warrior wife Neytiri (Zoe
Saldana) by his side. Over the years, the
pair has welcomed three biological children
— eldest son Neteyam (Jamie Flatters), second-oldest
son Lo’ak (Britain Dalton), and
youngest daughter Tuk (Trinity Jo-Li
Bliss) — and have helped raised two other
children, the Na’vi-human hybrid Kiri
(Sigourney Weaver) and the humanhuman
Miles (Jack Champion) who was
left behind when Jake and the Na’vi banded
together to boot the humans back to
whatever remained of the world they had
mined to near death.
Content with their growing family —
although the attitudes now coursing
through their teenagers are causing some
strife — their happiness abruptly ends
when the humans (aka Sky People) come
back with a vengeance with several ninefoot
tall Na’vi clones who were implanted
with the memories of the military men and
women who were killed near the end of the
first feature in tow.
Uninspiring twist aside, these scenes
are particularly affecting as it showcases
the harm humans can do to other worlds in
the name of advancement. It also serves to
propel the story to another part of Pandora
as Jake and the Sully clan flee from the

In Entertainment
Welcome to the wonderful world of James Cameron

clones now hell-bent
on their destruction.
And what a new
world the place they
land is.
After finding
refuge with the
Matkayina, a water
tribe, the Sully family set out to explore
their new home nestled on the shores of the
ocean, meeting all sorts of fantastic beasts
along the way. Cameron spends much of
the 192-minute run time playing within
these surroundings, letting the audience
get to know the new generation of the Sully
children as they bond with majestic ocean
animals and members of the new clan.
Although it can seem indulgent at times,
as if we are playing in his own personal
bathtub full of his toys, the underwater
scenes are quite breathtaking to experience.
Less thrilling, however, is the written
story within this film, which is really just a
retread of the previous film minus the mineral
that could have saved Earth. While
the sequel certainly has more depth than
its predecessor as the stakes are higher
with children at play now, some of the justifications
for the military Na’vi clones setting
off around the Pandoran world just to
fight Jake and his family is nonsensical at
times. But that is the risk one takes when
it comes to movies that are directed and
written by Cameron — more attention is
paid to the visual details rather than the
spoken word and its story. Individually,
they can be a powerful way to move a story,
to move an audience, but if they are created
together in harmony within a film it can
be even more affecting to the mind and
heart of the masses. That unfortunately is
not the case with “Avatar: The Way of
Water,” raising questions once again about
its cultural relevance but it will still leave
quite an impression with its ability to captivate
the senses through its visual storytelling
prowess.

The Franklin County Commissioners approved the
county’s more-than $2 billion annual budget for 2023. As
the administrative division of county government, the
commissioners directly oversee 14 county agencies and set
the budget for all of county government, including agencies
that report to other elected officials. They held three
days of budget hearings in November at which agencies
presented highlights from 2022 and their budget requests
for next year.
“There is a saying in government, ‘show me your budget,
and I’ll tell you your priorities,’” said board of commissioners
president, Erica Crawley. “Our annual budget is
the best possible example of the board’s values to support
and reflect our community’s priorities. Everything we do
as county commissioners is centered around helping and
ensuring all of our neighbors in Franklin County have the
same opportunities to thrive, not just survive.”
The 2023 budget includes continued funding for the
commissioners’ RISE childcare initiative that provides $23
million to make high-quality child care available to more
Franklin County families, and to strengthen the commissioners’
ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
This year’s budget fully funds a new 24/7 Rapid Resource
Center at the county’s new jail to provide support,
resources, and referrals to residents exiting custody in
order to help them succeed and avoid further contact with
the criminal justice system, and it includes increased funding
for Franklin County Public Health, Children Services,
ADAMH, the Office on Aging, the Board of Developmental
Disabilities, and the Veterans Service Commission.
“We’re pleased to be able to say that the county is in a
strong financial position again this year because of smart

County commissioners approve $2 billion budget for 2023
planning in years past,” said commissioner John O’Grady.
“We pride ourselves on long-term planning and responsible
budgeting so that we’re able to weather tough times
and support our residents when they need it most.”
The 2023 budget includes general fund expenditures
of nearly $600 million and all-funds expenditures
of more than $2 billion. General fund revenue
comes mostly from sales tax and funds local justice
and public safety agencies, including the sheriff’s
office, jail, and court system. The all-funds budget
includes state and federal passthroughs, and largely
funds social and human services, economic
development, and additional public safety initiatives.
The budget also includes nearly $82 million
in the county’s “rainy day” fund and approximately
five months’ worth of general fund cash reserves.
“This year’s budget includes not only the basic
funding that county government needs to provide
the services upon which our residents rely, but
increases to help ensure that all Franklin Count
families are able to share in the success that our
community enjoys,” said commissioner Kevin
Boyce. “Budgeting is among the commissioners’
most important responsibilities and the way in
which we can best support our residents throughout
the year.”
In 2022, the commissioners made historic
investments in workforce development programs
and nutritional support via the Mid-Ohio Food
Collective as well as providing millions in grants to
small businesses and local non-profit agencies.
They funded an unprecedented number of affordable
housing units and strengthened the county’s public
health infrastructure.

Traditional decorations connect to the past
I am a hard-core, tradition-driven holiday decorator.
My love of Christmas dates back decades and many
of the knick-knacks and baubles that hung on my tree
as a child made the journey through time and space to
today and the house I call home.
A partially burnt candle in the shape of a fireplace
and chimney, adorned with a single strand of greenery
and a tiny Merry Christmas banner, has a special
place in a hutch once owned by my grandparents. The
red brick is now faded to a light pink, but a diminutive
faux fire decal still shines bright.
Next to the candle is a jumbo pine cone adorned
with a face crafted out of cotton and smaller pine cone
arms that hold a tiny, decorated candle. It was lovingly
given to me when I was six years old and spent a summer
visiting Vienna with my mother.
The pine cone was plucked from a forest in Austria
and, in the early 1960s when I received it, was already
decades old.
On top of my tree is a celluloid Santa face mounted
on an eight inch round pleated aluminum circle. It
crowned my childhood Christmas trees and when I got
married in the mid-1970s, my beloved tree topper was
passed on to me by my parents.
Santa once had a full curly beard, but over the
years the glue holding him to the metal circle dried
and his fiberglass curls fell off. Last year, the topper
got a makeover, but with modern materials, the beard
is not as curly and shiny as it once was.
Perched atop a hutch in another room is a sad little
18-inch tree that most people–but not me–would
have tossed in the trash years ago. Its 20 branches of
a green, cellophane-like material function as needles
mounted on thin wire branches, albeit noticeably thinner
as the years move on.
Pictorial Past
The high school Duck Pin League met
every Wednesday afternoon after
school at the Grove City Bowling Alley,
located in a two story building on the
south of Broadway. Under the supervision
of girls’ gym teacher, Mrs. Betty
Trego, students participating could
earn a gym credit. Pictured are Bonnie
Schwarz, Eilene Trapp, Virginia Haag,
Mariam Weidenbein, Janice
Breckenridge, Maribel Breckenridge,
and Kathleen Trapp. Leanne Watkins,
from the Grove City Welcome Center
and Museum, provided the photo and
information.
A plain block of
green painted wood
serves as the base and
still bears the original
Grants (a long gone
South High Street store in the
Great Southern Shopping
Center) $1 price sticker. The
sticker is a reminder of my
seven-year-old self saving up
my chore money to buy the little
tree, which has since traveled
across America and the Pacific
Ocean to Japan before making
it back home to Ohio for good.
Gold garland is draped
Places
Linda Dillman
around the tree in our den–one that stands guard
over our presents until Christmas Day–and is another
childhood holdover. The garland, like the little tree
from Grants, has lost a lot of its original luster.
Sporting the patina of aged gold, it’s been cobbled
back together over the decades as portions of the string
holding it in one piece become weak and break. It now
sheds more than our dog, but I would never replace the
garland (neither the dog). It is too precious and, even
in its state of disrepair, I continue to see its beauty.
Shiny new ornaments, sturdy modern faux trees,
tree toppers and garlands that don’t shed are nice, but
there is nothing like looking at their older, aging counterparts
and taking comfort in knowing that they are
a link to the past and a keeper of memories for the
future.
Linda Dillman is a Messenger staff writer.
Showing appreciation for the Grove City
holiday displays and for local news
Linda and I have thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas lights in
and around Grove City this holiday season. The Town Center decorations
are spectacular and the best ever. Every time I drive by
the new downtown park, I slow down for a longer second look.
In years past, we often drove to other central Ohio communities
but last year we decided the best decorations could be seen in
our own town.
Even though there is so much turmoil in the world and societal
dysfunction, Grove City residents are looking to the bright side
and celebrate a season of inclusion. That’s motivation to anticipate
better days in 2023.
I also want to express my appreciation for our local newspaper,
The Grove City Messenger. I miss it being a weekly publication
but look forward to its community articles when it arrives in my
driveway every other week.
Weekly newspapers are not out of date; they still play a critical
role in our everyday life. The Messenger editor and staff do a good
job providing accurate and informative information for local residents.
It’s difficult to accept the fact that more than 2,500 newspapers
have ceased operation in the United States since 2005. I hope the
Messenger continues to represent both the residents and the business
community well into the future.
