BIDWELL — River
Valley High School Ag
students traveled to Boston last weekend to compete with other New England schools in parliamentary procedure, placing
fourth of eight teams at
the “Big E.” Six students
made the trip representing Gallia County.
“It was very interesting
to see all the people from
different states to come
and compete for something that we do as well,”
said Kaylee Schultz. “Normally we just compete
with people from Ohio.
So that was pretty cool to
compete with people from
other states.” Each of the
eight teams was the ﬁrst
or second place team from
their state in parliamentary procedure.

to resolve according to

Roberts Rules of Order, a
standard of rules dictating how a proper business meeting should be
handled. The River Valley

the trip. While in town
the students also toured
some of Boston’s sites,
including the home of
Tom Brady and Gillette

Gallia deputies support breast
cancer awareness

Gallia County Sheriff Matt
Champlin has announced
that deputies with the Gallia
County Sheriff’s Office will
be showing support for
Breast Cancer Awareness
during the month of October.
Champlin said, “Our deputies
were provided with an
opportunity to purchase
a pink uniform badge and
make a donation which
will in turn be given to the
American Cancer Society. For
this donation, deputies will
be approved to wear the pink
uniform badge for the month
of October. I believe it is
important that we show our
support to the survivors and
people currently suffering
from breast cancer. By doing
this, not only can we show
our support, but we can
make a donation in hopes of
helping someone in need.”

THEIR VIEW

Nursing home
residents need
protection
When I started my career as a civil rights attorney more than 32 years ago, my ﬁrst job involved
elder advocacy. I quickly learned that the most vulnerable elders — those who live in nursing homes
— were often subjected to abuse and neglect,
shortening their lives and making them miserable.
As if navigating Social Security, Medicare and
Medicaid were not challenges enough.
By the early 1990s, the federal
Older Americans Act was amended
Jeff
by Congress, requiring all states to
Spitzerhave legal counsel for their ombudsResnick
man programs. Shortly thereafter, I
Contributing
became the ﬁrst attorney to hold this
columnist
position in Wisconsin. My charge
was to help elders and people with
disabilities assert their rights to be free from
abuse and neglect in long-term-care facilities.
Along with other advocates, I worked to protect
vulnerable elders and people with disabilities,
and pushed to improve regulatory standards and
enforcement. I learned that regulatory bodies
mainly focus on compliance, leaving victims of
abuse and neglect without compensation for the
harm they suffered.
When I started a private practice representing
victims of abuse and neglect, it became clear that
obtaining monetary damages for these victims
was vitally important to them and their families.
It also served to further quality care, since neither
nursing homes nor their insurers enjoyed making
large payouts to victims of abuse and neglect.
But in the age of Donald Trump, even vulnerable elders are under attack. The nursing home
industry, with the president’s support, has proposed lifting an Obama-era rule that prohibits
nursing homes from insisting that all disputes
get resolved by arbitration. If this change goes
through, a critical piece of private enforcement to
protect vulnerable people who live in institutions
will be neutered.
Remarkably, these proposed reduction of
nursing home residents’ rights ﬂy in the face of
ongoing abuse and neglect of residents of longterm-care facilities. A recent report found that
more than one-quarter of serious nursing home
abuse incidents are not reported to the police,
as required. Shockingly, all of these incidents
involved injuries so severe as to require emergency room care.
Elders also face perils due to natural disasters
caused by climate change. Approximately 71 percent of Hurricane Katrina victims were older than
60. In response, the Center for Disease Control
urged disaster planners to take steps to protect
vulnerable older adults.
Yet when Hurricane Irma hit Florida, knocking
out power for much of the state, nine residents of
a nursing home died of heat-related causes. Their
facility hadn’t invested in emergency power generators. This disaster caused Florida Gov. Rick
Scott to announce new rules requiring all nursing
homes and assisted-living facilities to have sufﬁcient generator capacity to keep their facilities
and residents cool for 96 hours in case of a power
outage.
Yet even the best planning and new protective
rules will not protect every vulnerable nursing
home resident. That means victims must have
recourse to the courts to obtain compensation and
to hold long-term-care facilities accountable.
Advocates for these vulnerable residents of long
term care facilities must keep up the ﬁght to resist
removal of their legal protections.
Jeff Spitzer-Resnick is a civil rights attorney who runs Systems
Change Consulting in Madison, Wis. He wrote this for Progressive
Media Project, a source of liberal commentary on domestic and
international issues; it is affiliated with The Progressive magazine.

MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS

Influenza or ‘Flu’: Let Meigs County Health Dept. help you
What is inﬂuenza, more
commonly known as the
‘ﬂu?’ It is a contagious
respiratory illness caused
by inﬂuenza viruses that
infect the nose, throat,
and lungs. Signs and
symptoms include: fever
or feeling feverish/chills,
cough, sore throat, runny
or stuffy nose, muscle or
body aches, headaches,
fatigue and sometimes,
vomiting and diarrhea,
although this is more
common in children than
adults. It is important to
note that not everyone
with the ﬂu will have a
fever.
The ﬂu can range from
mild to quite severe,
and at times can lead to
death, especially in the
very young, the elderly
and individuals with compromised immune systems. The ﬂu is believed
to be spread by droplets
from coughing, sneezing
or talking, which can land
in the mouths or noses
of nearby people. It may

also be spread by touching something that has
the ﬂu virus on it and
then touching one’s own
mouth, eye or nose.
So, how long is it
between exposure and
you getting sick, and how
long are you contagious?
Once exposed, you may
develop symptoms anywhere from 1 to 4 days
later, with the average
being 2 days. You can
actually spread the ﬂu
virus to someone else a
day before you even know
that you are sick and up
to 5 to 7 days after you
know you are sick.
How are you going to
prevent yourself from getting the ﬂu this year? The
ﬁrst and most important
step in preventing ﬂu is
to get a ﬂu vaccination
each year. The Centers
for Disease Control
(CDC) also recommends
everyday preventive
actions (like staying
away from people who
are sick, covering coughs

States, millions of people

To protect our community from the ﬂu and
a possible ﬂu outbreak,
the Meigs County Health
Department offers the
ﬂu vaccine to those aged
6 months through adulthood. This year, we are
not only offering this
protection, but we are
also practicing for a much
bigger potential emergency situation by hosting a drive-thru ﬂu clinic
on Oct. 7 from 9 a.m. to
noon at the Meigs County
Fairgrounds. This, our
very ﬁrst drive-thru
clinic, will serve as an
“exercise” to help us with

our emergency preparedness plan and practice an
effective manner of vaccinating a large amount
of people in a short time
period. We hope you will
join us in this endeavor.
If you cannot join us on
Oct. 7, we will begin
administration of ﬂu
shots at the MCHD on
Tuesday, Oct. 10 between
9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 1
p.m. to 3 p.m. and other
days by appointment.
Please bring your insurance or medical card with
you to the clinic. The cost
for a private pay ﬂu shot
is $37 for those under
age 65 and $61 for those
aged 65+. We do have
a very limited number
of ﬂu shots available for
those with no insurance
coverage, and they will
be given ﬁrst come, ﬁrst

Hemlock Grange holds meeting
The September meeting of the
Hemlock Grange was held after
the prayer, salute to the ﬂag and a
patriotic song.
Adell White reported on the
exhibit at the fair. She thanked
any one that had helped in any
way. Racine took ﬁrst, Star second and Hemlock third. Judging
on the projects to go to state
was held at Star Grange. Winners from Hemlock included ﬁrst
place in afghan and pillow cases,
Rosalie Johnson; and ﬁrst place in
quilt, Sara Cullums.
Janice Weber, Deaf Chairperson, gave a short report on hear-

ing. She reported that 30 million
people have hearing problems.
As a reminder everyone needs
to send in the back cover of the
grange magazine. If it is not
sent in then individuals will not
receive their magazine. Master
Kim Romine is working on tax
papers.
Remember to save pop tabs,
eye glasses, lens and cases, and
used hearing aide batteries.
Landscaping at the front of the
Grange building was discussed.
Margaret Parker, Lecturer, used
“Autumn” as her subject. She has
a fall word search and an autumn

scramble game. To close her
program, she handed out songs
from the 40’s “Oh what a beautiful
morning” and “Don’t sit under
the apple tree;” the 50’s “Tennessee Waltz,” “Hey good lookin,”
Love me tender” and “Happy
trails to you;” the 60’s “Moon
river,” “Crazy” and “What a wonderful world;” the 70’s “Bridge
over troubled water” and “Everything is beautiful.”
The October meeting will be
preceded by a chicken and noodle
dinner.

Village ofﬁcials spoke
Aug. 14 about differences
in recorded addresses in
the village at a council
meeting as they felt they
were potentially creating problems with late
package delivery services
and emergency response
units. Village ofﬁcials felt
less than 50 individuals
had experienced such
problems.
According to previous
information gathered,
village ofﬁcials had
been concerned that
the address discrepancy
problem may have been
countywide. Gallia 911
Director Sherry Daines
said to her knowledge the
problem had only been
found in the Rio Grande
area.
Gallia Engineer
Brett Boothe shared
with a reporter that
the engineer’s ofﬁce is
responsible for ofﬁcially
recognizing addresses
across the region. The
county reportedly started
addressing for the 911
system in the early 90s
and utilized electronic
distance measuring
devices installed in a
vehicle, which was considered the best technology of the time. While
also changing address
numbers, road names
were also changed where
a road name might have
been used multiple times
throughout the region.
Roads were addressed
away from the City of
Gallipolis in number and
that sometimes conﬂicted
with Ohio Department of
Transportation’s straight
line mileage. This reportedly did not affect the
911 addressing needs,
however.
According to Gallia
Emergency Management
Agency Deputy Director Tim Miller, when
Rio Grande had been
readdressed in the past,
some residents chose to
not change their address
numbers.

homes and properties,
which might not have
been registered with the
engineer’s ofﬁce, differences occur in records,
said Boothe. Where an
entry drive may have ﬁrst
been placed may have
changed on a residence.
Distances originally measured with older equipment would be different
than those taken with
newer equipment. Aerial shots used in earlier
addressing efforts in 1977
had distortions due to
camera lenses.
“The problem exists in
a lot of different regions
in the state,” said Boothe.
“The trick is determining which addresses may
need changed due to
need.”
Boothe said if one
were to attempt to readdress the entire county, it
would mean thousands of
people would need to call
utility companies, government agencies and more
in order to make certain
their addresses were correct with the given organization. To his knowledge, the only concerns
with address discrepancies recently addressed
were in Rio Grande.
In order to overcome
location issues, the engineer’s ofﬁce took part in
a location based response
system program in 2010.
The system would allow
use of GPS coordinates to
better locate a residence.
Various responder agencies across the state have
access to the information
but potentially not all
agencies do given funding
and technology needs.
“We’re going to slowly
distribute those signs to
everyone in the village,”
said Rio Grande Police
Lt. Josh Davies. “Police
and ﬁre will go around
and give signs with the
correct addresses to the
residents and if they need
put up we will do that for
them. We got upwards
of 300 signs so it’s going
to be a process. We also
need an ordinance in
place.”

Dragons win
shootout over
GA, 49-32
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

PROCTORVILLE, Ohio — As it turned out,
Keedrick Cunningham had the ﬁnal answer.
That’s because Cunningham accounted for four
touchdowns and three rushing yards shy of an
even 200, and the host Fairland Dragons downed
the Gallia Academy Blue Devils 49-32 on Friday
night in an Ohio Valley Conference football shootout inside Jim Mayo Stadium.
Cunningham had a hat trick of touchdown runs
on 20 carries, including a pair in a wild fourth
quarter that saw the Dragons double up Gallia
Academy 28-14 — and erase a 32-29 deﬁcit with
six-and-a-half minutes remaining.
In fact, Fairland ﬁnished the game with the ﬁnal
20 points in a matter of ﬁve minutes and 21 seconds, including Cunningham’s scoring scampers
of 46 and 15 yards — sandwiched around a 7-yard
TD dive by Chase Fisher.
It was a back-and-forth thriller through threeand-half periods that featured eight lead changes,
as James Armstrong’s 88-yard kickoff return for
the Blue Devils made it 32-29 — and gave GAHS
its ﬁnal lead.
However, after Cunningham’s 46-yard burst put
the Dragons back on top 35-32, Gallia Academy
fumbled at its own 25-yard line.
Fisher ﬁnished off the short drive to ﬁnally make
it a double-digit Dragon lead — combined with
Joel Lambiotte’s two-point conversion run.
Lambiotte then intercepted his Gallia Academy
quarterback counterpart Justin McClelland with
3:35 remaining, and returned the ball to the Blue
Devil 30, where Cunningham covered the ﬁnal 15
yards just four plays later.
With the win, the Dragons remain atop the OVC
at a perfect 3-0 —joining Coal Grove as the only
undefeated clubs in the entire conference.
Gallia Academy — whose Division IV, Region
16 playoff hopes took a huge hit with the loss —
slipped to 2-1 in the league, and lost the “Battle for
the Old Coal Bucket” for the second consecutive

as Waterford turned its

all 20 of its third-quarter
points in a matter of three

“We have a fumble on

After that, everything just
went downhill,” said Eastern coach Pat Newland.
But, with the Eagles’
offense struggling
against a stout Waterford
defense, it was going to
be an uphill battle.
The Wildcats recorded
several sacks of Eastern
quarterback Nate Durst,
who seemed to be constantly swarmed under by
the Waterford front line.
All eight of Eastern’s
punts followed three-andout possessions, as the
Eagles only had six ﬁrst

downs, including one in
the ﬁrst half and its initial
in the second half coming
via way of a personal-foul
penalty.
The Eagles only rushed
for 27 yards on 21 carries,
as Durst completed just
three of his dozen pass
attempts for 14 yards
with one interception.
Eastern, which ran just
42 plays from scrimmage,
only had three gains of
more than nine yards.
Two of those were

Lady Defenders sweep Hannan
By Bryan Walters

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio —
One team ended a fourmatch losing skid. The
other dropped its fourth
straight decision.
The Ohio Valley Christian volleyball team
moved back over the
.500 mark on Thursday
night following a 25-16,
25-10, 25-9 victory over
visiting Hannan in a nonconference match in the
Old French City.
The host Lady Defenders (6-5) trailed only once
in the entire match — 1-0
in Game 3 — and led
each set by at least nine
points en route to earning a season sweep of the
Lady Cats (2-9), whom
they defeated by a 2-0
count during a tri-match
in Ashton, W.Va., back on
Sept. 5.
Ohio Valley Christian
stormed out to an early
5-0 lead in the opener, but
HHS answered with a 7-3
run to close the deﬁcit
down to 8-7. The hosts,
however, reeled off 14 of
the next 23 points for a

the ﬁnal three points to
wrap up a nine-point win
for a 1-0 match advantage.

with a victory — even if
it wasn’t a perfect evening.
“I was happy to get
everybody into the game,
and we could have played
better, but it was nice to
ﬁnally get rid of the losing streak,” Westfall said.
“It’s good to build some
positive momentum moving forward, but the bad
part is that we have over
a week before we play
again. The long stretches
without games are tough,
but at least we have win
headed into that stretch.”
Conversely, for HHS
coach Becky Ferrell, it
was another tough night
for her troops — but she
still admired the way they
battled throughout the
match.
As she noted, they still

have quite a bit of ﬁght in
them to do better.
“The girls keep playing
hard and they keep working to get better,” Ferrell
said. “Eventually, all the
hard work is going to pay
off … but we just have to
keep working at it until it
does.”

service points, followed
by Cori Hutchison with

Panthers get by Blue Devils, 3-1
By Paul Boggs
pboggsaimmediamidwest.com

CENTENARY, Ohio —
Maybe this was part of
the Chesapeake Panthers’
plan all along.
After arriving exactly
40 minutes late on Thursday night for their scheduled 6 p.m. soccer start
against Gallia Academy,
the Panthers posted two
early goals — and went
on to hold off the young
Blue Devils 3-1 in an
Ohio Valley Conference
tilt at Lester Field.
The Panthers’ team bus
pulled in to Gallia Academy High School at 6:40
p.m., but by 7:05 p.m.,
Chesapeake already had
a 1-0 advantage on the
scoreboard.
Chesapeake then
scored again at the ﬁrst
half’s midway mark,
before the Blue Devils got
a goal with 26 minutes
and 50 seconds remaining to make things quite
interesting.
However, that one-goal
Gallia Academy deﬁcit
only lasted for 10 minutes
and 25 seconds, as Cole
Mills made a penalty-kick
goal to push the cushion
to 3-1 with only 16:25 to
play.
From there, the Blue
Devils had just two good
shots the rest of the way,
but Andrew Toler’s airborne line-drive chances
at the 12-minute mark
and with one minute left
sailed directly into the
arms of the Chesapeake
goalkeeper.
With the loss, the Blue
Devils fell to 1-7-3, and
have been outscored in
those seven losses by a
whopping count of 31-3.

“I think that (delay)
affected us at the
start. We were here
so early and ready
for the game, and
even though we
hadn’t gone through
our warmups yet, we
took a lot of shots on
goal and practiced
some free pieces.
But stopping and the
game being delayed
until 7 p.m., I think
it did have an effect
for the first goal.
After the first goal, I
actually thought we
settled in and did a
pretty good job. We
made some changes,
especially after
halftime, and it didn’t
hurt.”
Paul Boggs | OVP Sports

Gallia Academy’s Trinity Eggers (4) battles Chesapeake’s Cole Mills for possession of the ball during Thursday night’s Ohio Valley
Conference soccer match in Centenary, Ohio.

They are now 1-3-2 in
the OVC, and are ofﬁcially eliminated from the
conference championship
chase after sharing the
title with South Point a
year ago.
Chesapeake, which
blanked the Blue Devils
3-0 in the two teams’ initial meeting on Sept. 12,
remains undefeated in the
OVC at 4-0-3.
Although the game got
delayed by approximately
an hour due to the Panthers’ late arrival, it didn’t
impact the Purple at
all — as it scored a mere
minute and 23 seconds

into the match.
Brock Holley, on his
only shot attempt, found
the back of the net off
an assist from Ian Picklesimer.
“I think that (delay)
affected us at the start.
We were here so early
and ready for the game,
and even though we
hadn’t gone through our
warmups yet, we took
a lot of shots on goal
and practiced some free
pieces. But stopping and
the game being delayed
until 7 p.m., I think it did
have an effect for the ﬁrst
goal,” said GAHS coach

Cory Camden. “After
the ﬁrst goal, I actually
thought we settled in and
did a pretty good job.
We made some changes,
especially after halftime,
and it didn’t hurt.”
But the Blue Devils still
trailed 2-0 at intermission,
thanks to Jacob Martin’s
unassisted ﬁrst-half marker with 21:17 to play.
Chesapeake — with a
size and experience advantage over Gallia Academy — controlled most
of the possession, as the
majority of the match was
played in the Blue Devils’
defensive half and third.

Finally, the Blue Devils
got a cluster in front of
the net, and freshman
Anthony Borden bagged
his ﬁrst career goal.
Justin Day helped set
up the scramble and shot,
as Gallia Academy — all
of the sudden — made it
2-1.
Unfortunately, that
momentum was shortlived, as the Blue Devils
— with the play turning
from physical to chippy
— were whistled for a
foul in the goalbox with
16-and-a-half minutes
remaining.
Mills made the subse-

— Cory Camden,
GAHS coach

quent penalty kick, rocketing the ball past Pierce
Wilcoxon into the lowerright 90.
The Panthers outshot
the Blue Devils 16-3, as
Mills and Dalton Nida
each attempted ﬁve with
Martin mustering four.
Thirteen of those shots
were on goal, as the
keeper Wilcoxon wound
up with 10 saves.
Chesapeake also held a
6-2 advantage in corner
kicks.
Gallia Academy
returned home on Saturday against non-league
Grace Christian, and
returns to OVC action on
Monday at Rock Hill.
