MONTICELLO An overflow crowd
packed the church in Monticello Tuesday
night for another meeting about a chicken
farm moving into the neighborhood.
The multi-million dollar farm is proposed for a site just spitting distance from
the edge of quiet little rural Monticello.

The proposed Concentrated Animal
Feeding Operation will house up to 2.2
million chickens. Owners Jim Fleck, Ralph
Rindel and Pine Valley Farms of New
Bremen look to expand their current operation in St. Henry to Monticello.
According to Steve Simindinger, the reason why they want to move here is that they
are worried about avian flu and the area
where they are now is packed with turkey

and chicken farms.
Attending Tuesday nights meeting were
activists from Advocates for a Clean Lake
Erie from Toledo. Mike Ferner spoke about
that committees work and offered to help
anyway they could with the local opposition to the factory farm. His wife, Sue
Carter, told the group that every time the
mayor showed up somewhere, the group
Church busy with VBS offerings
was also there with homemade signs and

passing out flyers and other materials.
Raise a little hell, she said.
Fleck requested a meeting with opposition leaders Simindinger and Brett Rider;
some Jennings Township trustees and Van
Wert County Commissioner Stan Owens
were also present at the meeting.

St. Johns Vacation Bible School is happening this week. The program is from 6-8:30 p.m. and will end Thursday.
The theme is CaveQuest: Following Jesus the Light of the World. This year, 98 students registered to participate.
The kids were able to watch movies, make crafts, participate in Bible study, sing songs and play outdoors. One
of the outdoor games involved the kids attempting to pull socks off of each other while crawling on the ground.
Trinity Family Life Center is holding community Vacation Bible School this week. The theme is Surf Shack.
The children were able to participate in music, recreation, crafts, snacks and Bible study. Sixty-six kids were
in attendance. Outside at the craft station the kids made flip-flop wind chimes. (DHI Media/Kristi Fish)
DELPHOS Bids for the construction of the Career

Connections Center to be built at the northeast corner
of the existing Jefferson Senior High School on State
Route 66 have been requested and will be opened at 2
p.m. on Aug. 2.
The funds for the center come from a $999,785
Straight A Fund grant applied for by teacher Missy
McClurg.
The grant for the new center was based on a consortium of approximately 4,000 students from Jefferson
and seven other school districts in the Tri-County area,
including Allen East, Apollo Career Center, Crestview,
Elida, Fort Jennings, Lincolnview and Pandora-Gilboa.
The Career Connection Student Center will encourage career exploration, such as job-shadowing, interview practice, future career exploration, skill-building
activities, etc.
The 4,300-square-foot building will include five
spaces:
Audio Visual Room
Conference Room
Module Career Pod area tooled for a career based
learning activity to mimic job shadowing experiences
A lecture area with seating
Future career maker space to explore STEM, coding, green energy, etc.
There will also be two restrooms.
The center will be a field trip destination for students
in grades 7-12 for career exploration at all education levels from high school diploma to doctorate level based on
the 45 jobs most in demand in Ohio. For example: in the
bio-medical pod, a student will be able to design a prosthetic and have a finished product by using a 3D printer.
Speakers will also come to the center and they will
be filmed and put on the centers own YouTube channel
for anyone to see. McClurg said this will be an opportunity for the community business and industry leaders to
share their expertise, job openings and let students know
what they expect of their employees.
Student activities can be saved to the Ohio Means
Jobs Backpacks, which are virtual backpacks filled
with job and career interests, the education, training and
skills needed to get those positions, budgeting tools,
resume assistance and more.
Non-certified personnel will see a 3.8-percent raise
the next school year in addition to the .75-percent raise
in the third and final year of the contract.
Superintendent Kevin Wolfe explained that the custodians, bus drivers, cafeteria workers and office workers
had worked under a wage freeze for three years starting
six years ago.

DBCs West Harbor meet Cougars eliminate Bath

for return state trip
BY DANIEL JOSEPH
DHI Media Staff Writer
sports@timesbulletin.com
The big pond of West Harbor dealt many a big blow. The wind was blowing pretty good
out of the West on Saturday which made most of the Delphos Bass Clubs anglers stay
close and fish for largemouth. That didnt stop the club from finding them and catching
them. There were 12 limits weighed in. Congrats to Dale Schleeter, standing left, on the
win. He had a limit of largemouth weighing 14.68 lbs. Tyler Sawmiller (second from left
standing) didnt let a little boat problem keep him from coming in 2nd place with a limit
of largemouth weighing 11.99 lbs. Kevin Schleeter (center standing) came in 3rd with limit
of largemouth weighing 11.71 lbs. Fourth place was Brad Trentman (far right) with limit
of largemouth weighing 10.80 lbs. Kevin Osting brought in biggest bass of the year. He
weighed in a largemouth at 5.42 lbs. Brandon Osting (second from right) came had 2nd
BB with a largemouth going 3.98 lbs. AOY race got a little tighter. Brandon Osting (seated) is still first with 478 points. Rob Lucas maintained 2nd with 469 points. Dale Schleeter
moved to 3rd with 468 points. Craig Myers is 4th with 463 points. Next tournament is
Wawasee on July 23. The meeting will be 7 p.m. Sunday at the Boy Scout shelterhouse.

Mr. Duncan riding off into

the sunset quietly as usual
The latest superstar to decide to hang up
his sneakers is long-time San Antonio Spur
Tim Duncan.
He played for some 20 years at a high level
and went through the gamut throughout his
career.
He started out as a sidekick to The Admiral,
David Robinson, who was the resident superstar of the Spurs in those days.
Robinson was part of a resurrection of
the Spurs franchise since the days of Artis
Gilmore, George Johnson and Iceman George
Gervin.
He won a title or two as a part of the Twin
Towers and played both center and power
forward, starting to build his status as one
the NBAs 50 greatest players ever and even
having any consider him the greatest power
forward ever.
He then moved into the team superstar role
when Mr. Robinson decided to hang them up
in 2003 and was the face quiet though it
may have been, not loud and commanding
as many another superstar has done over the
years of one of the most consistent franchises ever for most of a decade.
In this day and age of free agency, that is a
mark of excellence that is unfathomable.
He still played at a high level but his coach/
mentor/curmudgeon, Greg Popovich, realized
he needed to limit his minutes in the regular
season to win when it really counts in the
NBA the Playoffs.
And he was more than willing to let the
mantle of leadership slip from his clutches
and into the hands of the Tony Parkers, Manu
Ginobilis and Kawhi Leonards with class and
dignity.
He didnt complain and lament that he
was no longer the leader because he never
Jim Metcalfe
Metcalfes
Musings
changed his attitude of what he was as a player; he wasnt flashy because it wasnt about
him but the team.
How refreshing!
He wasnt flashy, so that made him boring, even though he played the game the
way it is supposed to be played could it be
that he played college for four years and even
as his athleticism waned, he still was the Big
Fundamental?
Anybody watch the NBA these days and
the poor fundamentals from these ridiculously
athletic freaks?
Its amazing you can be as successful as he
was for 19 years and that makes you boring.
If winning is boring, Ill take that.
Whatever he decides to do from here on
in, I have a feeling he will be very successful.
Ride off into the sunset and enjoy retirement, Mr. Duncan.
I had a brain fart last week when discussing the Cincinnati Reds.
I wrote that Anthony DeSclafani was the
possible new closer for the team as they move
forward.
It should have been Tony Cingrani that
is, until they have to trade him away in a couple of years.
That memory of mine just isnt what it
used to be, is it?
LIMA It looked over

after just two innings played
on Tuesday at Lima Central
Catholics Players Field.
Van Wert, looking for its
second straight trip to the
ACME State tournament,
was battling Bath.
The Cougars knocked
off the Wildcats 5-1 in the
District 5 ACME tournament
championship.
The Cougars scored five
runs in the second inning to
propel themselves to their
second straight ACME state
tournament.
Van Wert batted around in
the home-half of the second
inning, five of which came to
the dish with two outs.
With one away, Nick
Gutierrez
singled
and
advanced to second on
Wildcat error, then scored on
a Tristen Wehner single, giving the Cougars a 1-0 lead.
After a fly out to right field,
Holden Willingham reached
base on a fielding error before
Jake Lautzenhesier singled
home Wehner. Next, Mason
Carr singled and Willingham
scored on an error at the
plate, allowing both runners
to advance into scoring position.
They werent done yet,
however, as Darius Eddins
lined a single through infield
that plated two more runs to
give Van Wert a 5-0 lead in
the second.
We talked about getting
up early, Van Wert head
ACME coach Todd Dunlap
said. We thought that the
team who got up early would
gain control of the game from
a momentum standpoint.
With them having to beat us
twice, we thought if we got
on them early, we could ride
it out and thats what happened.
Bath showed signs of life
in the seventh inning after
being no-hit through the first
six frames. Logan Magrum
singled to begin the inning
and later scored on a Logan
Shafer RBI single. They
would tally three hits and
draw a walk in the final frame
but it was Van Wert who came
away with the 5-1 victory.
I like to see us battle and

not just give up, Bath head

ACME coach Andy Shafer
said. We put ourselves in
a hole in the second that we
couldnt get out of. Its tough
to come back from down five
runs against a good team and
Van Wert is a good team.
Willingham went the distance for the Cougars as he
allowed just three hits while
walking three and fanning
one.
I was really happy,
Dunlap said of Willinghams
outing. Weve been saving
him for just this occasion so
hed be good and fresh. He
battled with an upset stomach
because the heat was getting to him a little bit but he
pushed through. Everything
he through he had great command of. I couldnt be prouder of him.
Magrum gets hit with the
loss for Bath despite allowing just one earned run in the
game.
Van Werts offense was
balanced from top-to-bottom
as six different Cougars landed in the hit column.
With the loss, Baths seasons comes to an end as they
finish the ACME tournament
with a 5-2 record.
We have six seniors that
will be back next spring with
this team, Shafer said. We
saw some boys who are going
to throw the ball next spring
that didnt get innings in the
spring this past year. You
build your program through
your summer program.
The Cougars advance

to the ACME state tournament in Celina. They will
play Tipp City, the winner of
the District 7 tournament, on
Saturday, July 16, at noon.
Were going there to
make some noise, Dunlap
said of advancing to the state
tournament. Were not going
there just to be happy to be
there. We have a good core
with the five that came back
from last year and theyre
hungry. The young kids have
bought into that and theyre
hungry now, too.
Lawsons performance; he
hasnt pitched in a while and
had to battle through some
tough spots. The defense really helped him tonight; we
communicated very well,
which we havent done lately, and we cleaned up our
play, assistant coach Greg
Blackmore said. We are a
small-ball offense; we get the
first guy on in an inning and
we are going to bunt a lot;
teams know we will but we
do it anyway. We have five
players back from our ACME
title team in 2015, so we
are are relatively young, but
thats what were going to
do.
Blackmore tossed 110
pitches (67 for strikes) to best
right-hander Ryan Gossard,
who also went the distance in
a more efficient 85-pitching
outing (56 for strikes).
Van Wert (15-6) got to
Gossard for a tally in the
top of the second on a leadoff liner to center by Nick
Gutierrez, a sacrifice bunt by
Blackmore and a 2-out liner
to right by Connor Army; the
latter tried to advance as the
throw went home but a relay
from catcher Kaden Sullivan
was in time to get him to preserve a 1-0 scoreboard.
Van Wert put in an all-important second run in the
upper sixth. With one down,
Fetzer beat out an infield
chopper to second and
Temple chopped one to left.
Both advanced on a wild
pitch and out later, Gutierrez
was intentionally passed for
Blackmore. An error on a
pickoff play at third allowed
Fetzer to make it 2-0
The Cougars made it 3-1

in the seventh on a 1-out
2-base throwing error on
Armys grounder with Jake
Lautzenheiser pinch-running
and a 2-out throwing error
on Lees ground ball.
Bath made it interesting in
the final at-bat. With one out,
Gossard smashed one t center
but was erased by a Sullivan
grounder. Logan Williams
smascked one to center and
Logan Magrum walked to
load the bases. Elijah Mather
popped up to second sacker
Fetzer to end the contest.

BY NATHANIEL SILLIN
Before the housing market collapse of

2007, all renovation projects no matter how
expensive seemed like winners. Today,
home renovation is a whole new ballgame
and why you should carefully research any
potential fix-up project youre planning for
your home.
For the past 14 years, Remodeling magazines annual Remodeling 2016 Cost vs. Value
Report
(http://www.
r e m o d e l i n g . h w. n e t /
cost-vs-value/2016/)
has tracked cost recoupment on renovation projects nationwide and by
region, as local tastes
are important. Based on
trends from transactions
tracked in 2015, several
guidelines emerged:
Aim to cover your
costs. Pre-housing crash,
people were investing
heavily in their homes
and seeing returns greater than 100 percent on
their spending. In 2016,
the cost and return at
resale for the projects listed in the report
averaged 64.4 percent for a home sold within
a year of the upgrades. Making a profit on a
renovation isnt guaranteed, so aim instead to
tackle projects that will allow you to recover
your costs at the highest possible level.
Smaller projects focusing on essentials can
provide better returns. A decade ago, it was
an upscale outdoor deck or a gourmet kitchen.
These days, new doors, which can cost under
$500 to replace and install, are one of the most
popular projects. A high-quality fiberglass
entry-door replacement can recoup an average
82.3 percent of costs; a garage door replacement can return over 90 percent.
Upgrade rooms and spaces but keep it
modest. A minor kitchen remodel including
upgraded cabinet fronts, new hardware and
the addition of one or two energy-efficient
appliances averaged a return of more than 83
percent of original cost compared to the 65
percent for the gut jobs.
After assessing the national and regional
averages, youll need to evaluate your personal situation, local home market and the type of
homes that are selling in your neighborhood.
Lets start with the questions you need to ask
yourself:
What kinds of improvements make sense
for my neighborhood? Generally, exterior
renovations that complement nearby homes
have greater value, so consider how your
new exterior might fit in with other houses
on the street. As far as interior renovations,
keep your spending in line with your future

sale price. For example, a $100,000 kitchen
in a home that might not sell for more than
$300,000 would probably be a wasted investment but a kitchen update worth $10,000 or
less might help your house move quicker once
its listed for sale.
How long will I stay post-renovation?
Remember, the latest Remodeling magazine
numbers cover only one year of cost recovery
on projects. People renovate for a variety
of needs, either to make
the home more livable or
to make it more salable.
The longer you stay, the
more youll get out of the
investment but if you
have to sell soon, think
carefully about what
youll need to spend to
attract a buyer.
Will this send my
property taxes through
the roof? Renovation
projects that create larger homes can risk higher property taxes. You
should think through
potential property tax
impact not only for yourself but also for your future buyer. Consider
checking with your local residential taxing
body to determine before and after property tax rates for renovated properties in your
vicinity. Sometimes this information might
be available on their websites. If you know a
real estate broker with significant knowledge
of your immediate neighborhood, you might
consider speaking with them about this issue.
Consider consulting experts to help you
answer the basic questions youll have as
you make this decision. Start with trusted
financial professionals who can offer a second
opinion on what youre planning to do, how
much you want to spend and what particular
tax issues may arise when its time to sell. If
you need to borrow to renovate, that means
its time to make sure your credit reports
(https://www.annualcreditreport.com/index.
action) are accurate and you are pre-qualified
or pre-approved for your loan based on what
is required.
In short, do your homework before you
renovate your home.
Bottom line: In 2016, home renovation is
far from a home run. Know how long youre
planning to stay in the home before you start
and make sure the project you choose makes
sense for your local marketplace or you wont
get your money back.

The (Young) Rascals
Flash Back 1966 Lyndon B. Johnson is
president, a stamp was a nickel, the best picture academy award went to The Sound Of
Music and Star Trek, Batman, and Mission
Impossible had the attention of many TV
viewers.
The pop music scene
seemed especially crowded in 1966 (Beatles, Beach
Boys, Rolling Stones and
on and on). An American
band from New Jersey,
The Rascals (a.k.a. The
Young Rascals) would sit
front and center in the
music scene from 196668 with a white-hot run
of charting singles.
See how many you
remember:
Good Lovin No. 1 1966
I asked my family doctor just what I had,
I said, Doctor, Doctor, Mr. M.D.
Now can you tell me, tell me, tell me,
Whats ailin me?
How Can I Be Sure No. 4 1967
How can I be sure
In a world thats constantly changing?
How can I be sure
Where I stand with you?
Groovin No. 1 1967
Groovin on a Sunday afternoon,
Really couldnt get away too soon
A Beautiful Morning No. 3 1967
Its a beautiful mornin, ah,
Crossword Puzzle
"Firework Effects"
Each bird keeps singin his own song

People Got To Be Free No. 1 1968
All the world over, so easy to see,
People everywhere just wanna be free
(Historical Note from Wikipedia) The
Rascals Greatest Hits released in mid-1968
topped the US album
chart and became the
groups
best-selling
album. The same year
People Got To Be
Free, a horn-punctuated
plea for racial tolerance
(the band was known for
refusing to tour on segregated bills) in the wake
of the assassinations that
year of Senator Robert F
Kennedy and Reverend
Martin Luther King Jr,
became their third and
final U.S. No. 1 single and their sixth and
final Canadian No. 1. It was also their final
U.S. Top 10 hit, although they remained a
Canadian top 10 act for the next few years.
(Wikipedia)
The energizing, soulful pop music of The
Rascals (and The Young Rascals) was/is good
musical stuff. Inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame in 1997, they provided listeners
an upbeat, hopeful sound, during an upside
down time in America. Thankfully, the technology of today allows us easy access to theirs
and all of the great music from our past.
Good Vibrations.

Oh, show me herein

Oh Mary, conceived

you who solve all
problems, light all
roads so that I can
attain my goals. You
who gave me the
divine gift to forgive
and forget all evil
against me and that
in all instances in my
life you are with me.
I want in this short
prayer to thank you
for all things as you
confirm once again
that I never want to
be separated from
you in eternal glory.
Thank you for your
mercy towards me
and mine.
(The person must

After three days,
the request will be

expenses. If anyone would like to donate items for raffles, prizes, a monetary donation, or help with the benefit, please contact Tiffany Horstman, Christopher Meyer, Michelle Meyer,

Chicken
(Continued from page 1)
They told us their thoughts

and we told them our thoughts.
Basically, we agreed to disagree, Rider said.
Simindinger described it as a
ping-pong match, noting Fleck
and Rindler really didnt have
much to say. When questioned
about the potential to damage to
the aquifer, Rindler, who has 30
years experience in the chicken business, and Fleck offered
some reassurance.
They both assured us
thats never going to happen.
Its never happened at the other
places, Rindler said.
Simindinger asked Pine
Valley Farms if would they sign
a paper accepting responsibility
if something should happen but
that was declined.
Simindinger also said that
most of their questions were
deferred to the state and they
never really got answers from
Pine Valley Ranch people.
They told the local residents they wanted to be good
neighbors and the response was
wouldnt it have been better
to talk to the neighborhood
about his before starting the
process? he continued.
While a couple of voices
spoke up about the rights of
Pine Valley Ranch to do what
they wanted with their land if
it wasnt illegal, another cautioned people to use calm language when speaking to Pine
Valley Ranch or state officials.
Most of the 130 or so people
in the church were adamantly
opposed to the factory farm.
Monticello is on St. Rt.
116, about five miles west of
Spencerville. Between trucks
picking up and delivering eggs,
delivering feed and other traffic, the conservative estimate
of truck traffic is at 120 semis
a week traveling a roadway that
might see 75 vehicles total in
a day.
Rider and Simindinger also
said allowing this farm to come
in is the first step to more and

more mega-farms coming in.
If Pine Valley is successful in
its application, more and more
mega-farms will follow, which
is currently the situation in
Mercer County.
Even though the Ohio
Department of Agriculture,
which oversees the permitting
process, has been contacted by
numerous elected officials as
well as local residents to petition for a second public comment meeting, Kevin Elder of
the ODA said it was unlikely
that a second meeting would
happen because it would set a
precedent, a sentiment echoed
by the ODAs director.
There was a sense of firm
opposition to the factory farm
and a real sense that the residents were not going to accept
this quietly.
This right here is a moral
issue, Simindinger said, so
many people are against it.

He said he asked Fleck if
he would do it with this much
opposition and was money
more important than the people? There was no answer.
Opposition leaders are
attending Spencerville Village
Council meeting at 7 p.m.
Monday night. The ODA is still
accepting comments and may
extend time to allow for more
people to comment.
