Representatives from Vista Consulting Group LLC presented the board at their most recent meeting with multiple plans for energy savings construction projects that could cost around $3 million, with the total cost of the project dependent upon which projects are implemented and which ones are not. Before the district can establish a partnership with Vista, a request for state approval of the construction plan must be submitted and approved. State approval for the program takes approximately 60-90 days, according to Doug Cox, president and managing partner of Vista. Cox discussed the Energy Conservation Program House Bill 264 Project, which is designed to enable school districts to make energy efficiency improvements to their buildings and use the cost savings to pay for those improvements. He also presented the board with updated lists of what specific projects the district could implement. Possible improvements that Cox discussed with the board for Gallia schools at a previous board meeting in August included internal and external lighting upgrades, automation system integration and overhaul, solar thermal hot water supplement, solar power program, kitchen dishwasher upgrades, vending/snack misers and air conditioning upgrades. “There’s one thing that we can’t do that we found out, and that’s turning everything to natural gas in the district — at least in a couple areas, it’s just not feasible. The gas companies won’t extend their lines, so it’s pretty much a simple story on that,” Cox said. Some of the additional project options that Cox said Vista representatives added to the list that the electricity savings are expected to pay for over time include a security camera integration expansion See ENERGY | A6 19th annual St. Jude’s Saddle Up Trail Ride set By Lindsay Kriz Over the past 18 years, the ride has raised a total of $188,160 for St. RUTLAND — The Jude. 19th annual St. Jude’s The ride itself lasts Saddle Up Trail Ride around three to four is set for Sept. 20 on hours and makes its Beech Grove Road, way through 15-20 difwith the actual trail ferent properties, with ride departing at noon, permission from each of according to Isabel Dill, the landowners.

The new dates call for six executions next year beginning in February and five in 2016. They came in the form of reprieves handed down by Republican Gov. John Kasich, moving inmates’ former execution dates back by several weeks. The first new execution date, Feb. 11, was set for Ronald Phillips, sentenced to die for the rape and killing of his girlfriend’s 3-year-old daughter in 1993. His execution was previously postponed while he made an unsuccessful attempt to donate organs to family members. The lead defense attorney challenging Ohio’s lethal-injection policy, Allen Bohnert, declined to comment. Judge Gregory Frost’s ruling last month delayed executions scheduled for September, October, November and January and highlighted the ongoing problem faced by states in obtaining drugs to put inmates to death. The order also was seen as a way to give Ohio more time to find sources for its preferred method, a dose of compounded pentobarbital, a powerful sedative, which has been used without incident several times in Missouri and Texas. At issue is the state’s latest death penalty policy change, which was announced in late April and increases the amount of the sedative and painkiller it uses. Last January, unable to obtain supplies of compounded pentobarbital, Ohio switched to its backup method of the sedative midazolam and the painkiller hydromorphone. Condemned killer Dennis McGuire repeatedly gasped during the 26 minutes it took him to die on Jan. 16, an outcome partly predicted by defense attorneys. On April 29 in Oklahoma, an inmate died of an apparent heart attack 43 minutes after his execution began with a three-drug method that starts with midazolam. Investigators have blamed poor placement of intravenous needles, not problems with the drugs. On July 23, an inmate took nearly two hours to die in Arizona, which also uses midazolam and hydromorphone. �LOCAL Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, September 7, 2014 A3 MEIGS COUNTY COMMUNITY CALENDAR Sunday, Sept. 7 REEDSVILLE — Reedsville will have its annual community picnic at the Bellville Locks and Dam in Reedsville.

The victim in this situation was only 7 or 8 years old at the time of this crime and is now 13. The man was found guilty and sentenced to four years, but gets to roam freely about while his appeal goes through. Through the course of the crime, which was over four years ago, he has only spent a total of two or three weeks in jail. Not only has the victim been through more than any young child should ever experience, but she had to relive it again during his trial. Trying to explain to her the process of the “judicial system” was hard enough, but then after it has failed her so miserably, I have trouble understanding how it works. There has been no justice for this young girl or her family. Just living in the same town with this man, she is constantly reminded of the crime, and worries about running into him or his family anytime she is out in the community. The judge himself said there was overwhelming evidence against this man, sentenced him to four years, then let him out into the community. Please tell me where the justice is in that? Yes, this man is a lifelong resident of Gallia County and had no prior record, until he was caught! Wake up, people! How can some of you defend this man as an upstanding citizen after all the pain he has caused this family, especially to this young girl. If you could say any good has come about from this, it is the fact that he has been exposed as a predator and people will now be aware of what kind of person he really is. I can’t even begin to describe the frustration I feel about the course that this sentencing has taken. A slap on the wrist does not seem to justify the crime, especially when a young girl (the victim) gets a life sentence of painful memories and always having to look over her shoulder. I can see now why women hesitate to report a rape or assault. Paula Baker Gallipolis W.Va. man wants to hunt on Sundays in Mason County Dear Editor, Voters in Mason County have an important decision to make this Nov. 4. Voters will decide if Sunday hunting on private land only, with written permission, will be allowed. Does Sunday hunting work? It does in 44 of 50 states. It does in 19 counties in West Virginia; 14 of which have had Sunday hunting for 13 years with zero accidents. All one has to do is look west of Mason County, because once you cross the Ohio River one can hunt on Sunday all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Are Gallia and Meigs counties experiencing a moral decline because of Sunday hunting? Of course not, they are just as godly as citizens of Mason County. Mason County is full of hard-working Americans that make a living with good, old-fashioned sweat — many of whom are lucky if they get one day off a week. Therefore, there shouldn’t be law telling them how they can spend their Sundays. Should Sunday be a day of rest? Yes, I praise God on Sunday, but I prefer to praise God on all seven days — not the madatory one. So after church, you will find me enforcing God’s message by showing my child the great outdoors. Sunday is a day of peace. I would like to enjoy peaceful activities such as bow hunting on my own land. Currently, I can ride ATVs, recreational shoot, and go mud-bogging on Sunday. These are noisy activities that I have the legal right to do. All I am asking for is the legal right to hunt on my own land, just like the majority of America. It is time we regain rights for the hard-working American citizen. Cory Boothe Quinwood, W.Va. Times-Sentinel Letters to the Editor Letters to the editor should be limited to 300 words.

The reports kept coming every few years, to no effect. A 2006 report noted that “one of the difficulties that prevents this issue being dealt with effectively is the ethnicity of the main perpetrators.” It should be taken as a given that a rapist is a rapist, no matter what his religion or ethnicity. But British multiculturalism isn’t so simple-minded. The member of Parliament who represented Rotherham admitted that as a “liberal leftie” he didn’t want “to rock the multicultural community boat.” And so the rapists did their vile worst, protected by the appalling assumption that violating and exploiting young girls is just another ethnic folkway that tolerant people have to learn to accept, or at least to ignore. In this country, there is a feminist cottage industry in identifying nearly everything as part of “rape culture.” In Rotherham, there was a terrifyingly real and endemic rape culture. Yet Rotherham doesn’t have a fashionable hashtag. It hasn’t prompted feminist handwringing about how multiculturalism effectively empowered a criminal patriarchy. It has barely caused a peep. It is the wrong perpetrators, wrong victims, wrong narrative. Which is why so many young, innocent lives were allowed to be ruined in the first place. There are no words.

Jordan Legg, 17, was sentenced to life in prison Thursday in the death of 84-year-old Thomas “Shorty” Whitson in Orient, just southwest of Columbus. He won’t be eligible for parole for at least 20 years. Legg pleaded guilty to a charge of aggravated murder for his role in the death of Whitson, who was shot to death as he slept in his favorite chair in the living room of his rural home earlier this year. Authorities say Legg was in a group of five that included Whitson’s grand- son who killed the farmer because they wanted to sell his guns for drug money. Pickaway County Common Pleas Judge P. Randall Knece told Legg he should be kept in isolation every March 30 to be alone with the thoughts of what he did, according to The Columbus Dispatch. Emily Otterbacher from the county crime victims’ advocate office said Whitson’s family was “ecstatic” about the judge’s unusual order. “They thought it was very fitting because they’ll never forget what’s been done,” she said. “Why should he?” Legg, who had no relatives or friends in the courtroom, apologized to Whitson’s family. He said drugs ruined his life and now he realizes that he ruined others’ lives, too. the state.

Tens of thousands of Army National Guard members from New Hampshire to Hawaii have been idled because of a $101 million gap that has led to drills being postponed and travel being suspended, National Guard spokesman Capt. John Fesler said. Meanwhile, there are efforts underway in Congress to get funding reallocated so drills can be held later this month and so Guard members will get pay they were counting on. Decisions to postpone or cancel drills were being made by state Guard leaders. Among states that announced they put off training exercises are Alabama, California, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Montana, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas and Utah. Some, including Alaska, New Jersey, Oregon and Vermont, planned to go ahead as scheduled. Texas authorities said Guard members already on border missions won’t be affected by the training delay. Among reasons for the shortfall are fewer Guard deployments overseas that are funded separately and higher-than-expected attendance for training paid by the Guard. “The National Guard is committed to resolving the issue with least Energy we need to do,” Cox said.

The Ohio National Guard’s adjutant general, Maj. Gen. Deborah Ashenhurst, announced postponement in a video last week. She said drills were being rescheduled to the end of the month in hopes that funding will be available by then. “We’re very much aware that this action will be at best an inconvenience for all of you and will have varying degrees of economic impact across the force,” Ashenhurst said in the video message. “We’re taking this action as a last resort.” Most of the nation’s 350,000 Army Guard members are part time, and many have full-time civilian jobs. They get paid for readiness training, earning hundreds of dollars for a weekend of drills depending on their rank. They also get credits that build toward retirement benefits. “When you’re a young college student and working hard to make ends meet and trying to serve your country right now, it’s not good,” said Robbie McGalliard, a 27-year-old artillery gunner in the Georgia National Guard.

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Home sweet home. The Gallia Academy football team played at Memorial field in the Old French City for the first time this season Friday night and the Blue Devils gained 420 yards in a 30-0 victory over non-conference guest Chesapeake. The Blue Devil (1-1) defense forced the Panthers (0-2) to punt on their first drive and GAHS took over on its own 32 yard line. The Blue and White gained four first downs on their first offensive drive but 35 yards yards worth of penalties plagued the Blue Devils. Dylan Saunders capped off the 17-play, 7:15 drive with a 20 yard field goal to put GAHS on top 3-0. CHS and GAHS both went three-and out on their next drives and the Panthers took over on the Blue Devils 44 for their third drive of the game. Penalties sent the Purple and White back across the midfield stripe and they were forced to punt. Gallia Academy took over on their own 20 yard line but a pair of long runs by junior quarterback Kole Carter set the hosts up at their own 47. Senior tailback Eli Miller broke through the Chesapeake defense for a 53 yard touchdown run and with the Saunders extra point, put GAHS on top 10-0. Neither team was able to score in the half and GAHS took the 10-point advantage into the half. The Blue Devils received the second half kickoff and began their offensive drive on their own 29 yard line. On the 12th play of the drive senior Blake Wilson found paydirt from two yards away, and with Saunders’ point after, gave GAHS a 17-0 lead. See ACADEMY | B3 Unbeaten Raiders take a 34-7 victory By J.P.

At the 10:19 mark of the second quarter, River Valley’s Sam Payne ran for a six-yard touchdown and a successful PAT by Dylan Marcum gave the Raiders control with a 20-0 advantage. With 5:40 remaining in the first half, Josh Campbell rushed for a 10-yard touchdown and another successful PAT by Dylan Marcum increased the lead to 27-0. With 2:01 left in the second quarter, Kirk Morrow rushed for a 16-yard touchdown run and a successful PAT by Dylan Marcum allowed River Valley to extend its lead to 34-0 at the half.

The host Eagles (1-1, 1-0 TVC Hocking) trailed for only 1:15 in the 48-minute affair as EHS reeled off four consecutive scores to turn an early 7-6 first quarter deficit into a sizable 35-7 halftime advantage. Facemyer had TD runs of 11, 8 and 32 yards in the first quarter en route to a 21-7 edge, which ultimately allowed the hosts to gain control of the contest. Bradley Colburn added a two-yard run a little over a minute into the second canto for a 27-7 lead, then Andrew Stobart hauled in a 30-yard scoring pass from Jett Facemyer with 3:20 left in the half — giving the Green and Gold a fourpossession advantage at the break. Eastern mustered 285 yards of total offense before halftime, which included 189 rushing yards on 26 carries. Jett Facemyer also went 10-of-13 passing in the opening half for 96 yards, which included eight straight completions to start the game.

Miller showed some early signs of life to start the third quarter as Kody McKinniss returned the opening kickoff 79 yards for a 35-14 contest 12 seconds into the half, but the Purple and White were never closer the rest of the way. Jett Facemyer scored on a 32-yard scamper with 6:50 remaining in the third for a 41-14 cushion, then Daschle Facemyer picked off a Cole Geil pass and returned it 89 yards to the house for a 47-14 advantage with 3:16 left in the third. Zach Waldrop wrapped up the scoring with an 8-yard run as time expired in the fourth. Geil also hit Garrett Bartley with a 14-yard scoring pass, which gave the guests their only lead of the night at 7-6 with 6:53 left in the opening frame. The Eagles finished the night with 367 yards of total offense, which included 268 rushing yards on 43 attempts. The hosts also accumulated 18 first downs and 10 penalties for 80 yards. MHS, conversely, managed 162 yards of total offense, had 11 first downs and was penalized 10 times for 56 yards. The Falcons produced just 68 rushing yards on 30 carries and finished minus-3 in turnover differential.

TVPG Masters of Sex "Story of My Life" (N) Marauders outgun Fairland, 79-69 By Dave Harris Special to OVP ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — If you like offense in a football game there was plenty Friday night at Farmers Bank Stadium/ Holzer Field as the Meigs Marauders and the Fairland Dragons hooked in a shoot out. The two teams combined for 148 points and 1,353 yards total yards. When the dust had cleared Meigs had won their first game of the young season 79-69 over Fairland. There were plenty of stars on both sides of the field. Despite sitting out most of the third period with muscle cramps, Michael Davis carried the ball 37 times for 352 yards. The senior was 3-of-4 passing for 36 yards, and he also chipped in with three receptions for 54 yards. In all, Davis accounted for nine Marauder touchdowns.

Meigs took a 41-23 lead into the locker room at the half when on the final play of the half, English was flushed out of the pocket, went up the middle and cut to the near sideline going 60 yards for the score, giving the Marauders a 41-23 lead at the half. In the third period, the Dragons outscored the Marauders 26-22 staying in the contest pulling to within 63-49 heading into the final period. The heat of the day started to take its toll on both teams in the period as both players struggled with muscle cramps most of the second half. Davis, despite sitting most of the period, scored two touchdowns in the final 1:23 of the third, sandwiched around a 42 yard touchdown pass from Short to Murphy to set the scene for an exciting fourth period. Short hooked up with Damron once again from 15 yards out with 6:20 left to pull the Dragons to within one score at 71-63. Davis scored his eighth rushing touchdown of the night to give the Maroon and Gold some breathing room at 79-63 with 1:45 remaining.

This delayed payment penalty is not interest and is to be collected only once for each bill where it is appropriate. TAP FEE The following charges are to be made whenever the utility installs a new tap to serve an applicant. A tap fee of $150.00 will be charged to customers applying for service before construction is completed adjacent to the customer's premises in connection with a certificate proceeding before the Commission. This pre-construction tap fee will be invalid after the completion of construction adjacent to the applicant's premises that is associated with a certificate proceeding. A tap fee of $300.00 will be charged to all customers who apply for service outside of a certificate proceeding before the Commission for each new tap to the system. LEAK ADJUSTMENT $1.72 per 1,000 gallons is to be used when the bill reflects unusual consumption which can be attributed to eligible leakage on the customer's side of the meter. This rate shall be applied to all such consumption above the customer's historical average usage. SURFACE OR GROUND WATER SURCHARGE An additional amount shall be charged where surface or ground water is introduced into the sanitary system where evidence of a violation exists. Surcharge formula to be applied in cases where surface drainage is connected to the utility's sewer system. APPLICABILITY Where the utility has discovered that a customer's roof drain, downspout, storm sewer, or similar facilities conducting surface water have been connected to the District's sewer system, and such customer has failed to take appropriate action, within thirty (30) days of receipt of a demand by the District in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Public Service Commission, to eliminate such connection, a surcharge will be imposed upon the customer calculated on the basis of the following formula: S=A x R x .0006233 x C S = The surcharge in dollars. A = The area under roof and/or the area of any other water collection surface connected to the sanitary sewer, in square feet. R = The measured monthly rainfall, in inches. .0006233 = A conversion factor to change inches of rain x square feet of surface to thousands of gallons of water. C = $6.60 - The District's approved rate per thousand gallons of metered water usage. The District shall not impose the surcharge unless and until the customer has been notified by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by hand delivery, that it has been established by smoke testing, dye testing or on-site inspection that rain or other surface water is being introduced into the sanitary sewer system at the customer's location, and that the customer has not acted within thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to divert the water from the sanitary sewer system. The surcharge shall be calculated and imposed for each month that the condition continues to exist. Failure to pay the surcharge and/or correct the situation shall give rise to the possible termination of water service in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Public Service Commission of West Virginia.

Waste containing materials which, in the judgment of the Mason County Public Service District, should not be introduced into the sewer system, need not be handled by it. The results of this preliminary study will be used to determine the feasibility of the proposed sewer service and the charge therefore, based upon the formula set out above. Thereafter, unusual sewage will be monitored on a regular basis and at the conclusion of each fiscal year, based on the investigation aforesaid and audit of the Mason County Public Service District records, new cost figures will be calculated for use in the above formula. The cost of establishing the monitoring facilities shall be paid by the unusual user. Based on these audited figures, additional billings covering the past fiscal year will be made for payment by each unusual user, or refund given by the Mason County Public Service District, as the case may be. Such audited figures will then be used for the preliminary billing for the next fiscal year, at the end of which an adjustment will be made as discussed above. W.Va. Code § 16-13A-9 authorizes the District to petition the Circuit Court to compel connection to the sewer system. In the event a customer does not connect to the system that customer may be charged based upon metered water usage if available, or, if meter data is not available, the average usage of that customer s class. For residential customers, this charge will be $50.38. District personnel may be reached at (304) 675-6399 or at the District s office, 332 Viand, Point Pleasant, West Virginia 25550. 09/07/14,09/14/14 Notices NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

The Cougars (2-0) scored twice in the opening period, first on a one-yard Mitch Reynolds run around the five minute mark. Frontier’s second score of the game came from its own 35 yard line on a Rodney Barnes run. Following a scoreless second quarter the Cougars found paydirt again with 3:33 remaining in the third on a two-yard Reynolds run. Frontier claimed an 18-0 lead through three quarters. Southern (1-1) finally got on the board less than a minute into the fourth when Ryan Billingsley powered into the endzone from a yard out.

The Virgil A. Lewis House, located on Brown Street, was home to Lewis from 1905-1912. The first West Virginia state historian, Lewis was also a state superintendent of schools and a famous author of history books. The house served as a museum for a time, mostly in the 1960s through 1980s, and was the meeting place of the now-defunct Mason City Historical Society. Students from the now-closed Mason Elementary School were frequent visitors of the museum for field trips during that time due to it being within walking distance. In the past few decades, the house has deteriorated. Owned by the county, John Gerlach, administrator for the Mason County Commission, said the house was ready to be condemned. Gerlach said support beams and windowsills had rotted, and there was a lot of structural deterioration. Asbestos from the building was removed recently with money provided by a grant. County officials tried to get additional grant funds to Submitted photo An older photo of the Virgil A. Lewis House shows the ornate trim work on the house, but also shows the deterioration as well. The porch support beam on the right of the house was completely rotted in two and the porch floor contained holes that caused safety issues. John Gerlach, administrator for the Mason County Commission, owners of the building, said there was much structural deterioration and the house was ready to be condemned. repair the house, but they were denied. “If we had unlimited funds, we would have rebuilt the house,” Gerlach said. He added once it was evident the house would have to come down for safety reasons, there was a plan to reconstruct two of the rooms at the West Virginia State Farm Museum near Point Pleasant. And while Gerlach said that plan is still not out of the question, there is no money right now to have it done. Meanwhile, Lowell Wilks, project coordinator for Rivers to Ridges Heritage Trail, has been assisting with the razing of the building. An Americorps team began gutting the upstairs interior in March, Wilks said, and will return in October to finish the demolition. Since March, others have been working on the house as well, including participants in the Mason County Day Report Center program. Workers have removed the twotier Eastlake Movement style porch and its roof, and last week started on the upstairs. Wilks said the roof will soon come off of the house, and by the time the Americorps team comes back in early October, only the first story should be remaining.

In this cutting-edge laboratory within the library, patrons are able to let their creative juices flow as they design unique, useful objects and then From the print these objects on-the-spot, in 3-D Bookshelf format. Debbie Three-dimensional printing, or Saunders additive manufacturing, is a process in which solid objects are created from various materials based on a 3-D digital design by printing layers of material that are combined to produce a physical object. According to Forbes, the first functional 3-D printer was created in 1984 and the technology has evolved ever since. In reading this, you may be wondering how this technology can be useful in everyday life. Forbes provides creative examples of the use of 3-D printing such as creating car parts, smartphone cases, fashion accessories, medical equipment, prosthetics, and even artificial organs. The use of 3-D printing can not only enhance the quality of life — it can even prolong it. I was intrigued while reading Forbes magazine’s true account of a baby born prematurely in 2011 with lung development problems. At six weeks of age, the baby stopped breathing. The infant was diagnosed as having a weak windpipe, causing the baby’s trachea and left bronchus to collapse. The child received a tracheostomy and had to use a ventilator. However, this was not the right long-term solution to use, as the baby could not breathe well and his heart stopped almost on a daily basis. It was in this case that the doctors at the University of Michigan decided to use a 3D-printed lung splint as a prototype. Doctors used computer modeling software to create the splint and match the baby’s windpipe. Around three weeks after the operation, this child no longer needed a ventilator to breathe. Another useful example of this technology, though less serious in nature than the lung splint, is the use of 3-D printing by TV personality Jay Leno, who creates custom and hard-to-find parts from scratch for his extensive car collection using his 3-D printer. Just this month, the world’s first 3-D printer will launch into space. NASA uses this technology to customize spacecraft and instrument parts. On a more practical level, hobbyists are using 3-D printing to create their own chess sets, while do-ityourselfers are printing everything from cable spools to lawn sprinklers to jewelry, and much more. You may be wondering how public libraries are incorporating 3-D printing as an avenue of service to library patrons. To paraphrase technology consultant Jason Griffey’s recent article in American Libraries magazine, “The library is, at its core, an engine for the democratization of knowledge and information. The library was often the first place where someone could go to touch a computer … or see the Internet. The library has a long history of providing technology for its patrons.” While 3-D printing is a relatively new avenue of service for public libraries, it is one whose path has endless possibilities. Bossard Memorial Library strives to provide those in our community with knowledge and information in a variety of formats. The library opens the door to a world of opportunities, including those possible though technology such as 3-D printing. Are you interested in learning more about 3-D printing and how it can enhance your life, both on a personal level and in the life of your organization or business? In evaluating future avenues of service for the public library, I would welcome your ideas and feedback as to your interest in this technology that transforms one’s creative designs to actual physical objects and tools that make the world a better place to live. To share your ideas and interest on 3-D printing, email Debbie Saunders at saundede@oplin.org.

The proclamation recognizes Sept. 20-21 as the 151st annual Emancipation Celebration Weekend at Bob Evans Farms. The Emancipation Proclamation — issued by President Abraham Lincoln on Jan. 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war — declared “that all persons held as slaves” within the rebellious states “are, and henceforward shall be free.” The proclamation has been continuously celebrated and honored in Gallia County since 1863 and is reported to be the longest continuous celebration in the United States.

In addition, allowing producers to aggregate on a larger scale provides added benefits, such as cold storage for products that are normally unable to be shipped, Stroud said. “The idea is to consolidate the markets and producers into one contact,” she said. Currently, there are a total of 295 registered food hubs throughout the nation, according to the USDA. West Virginia has two registered food hubs listed by the USDA — Fish Hawk Acres, located in Rock Cave, and Monroe Farm Market in Union. With the state only having two registered food hubs, it has one of the lowest productions per thousand ratios in comparison to state population, Hinton said. “All of the neighboring states that surround West Virginia outnumber us in the amount of food hubs they have,” he said. Virginia has 19 registered food hubs, Ohio has 12, Maryland has five, Kentucky has three and Washington, D.C., has one registered food hub, according to the USDA. �COMICS Sunday Times-Sentinel BLONDIE Sunday, September 7, 2014 C3 By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer RETAIL By Norm Feuti HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET By Vic Lee RHYMES WITH ORANGE Hank Ketcham’s DENNIS THE MENACE Promotional Packages Starting At...

Farm a hit for weddings, reunions By Charlotte Ferrell Smith Associated Press RIPLEY, W.Va. — Staying at Ranson Hollows in Jackson County is like having an entire park to yourself. Situated on 450 acres of picturesque land, guests who rent the chalet and cabin have access to hiking paths, fishing ponds, ATV trails and breathtaking views in the quiet of nature. Bo Ranson, who grew up there, is happy to share the serenity. “People once said ‘Why do you live in the middle of nowhere?’ Now people pay me to stay here,” said Ranson, 55. “When you’ve got stuff, it isn’t fun unless you share it. We’re booked for this year and have nine weddings booked for next year. We are now taking reservations for 2015.” His regular job is president of Land & Resource Management Inc. He runs Ranson Hollows with help from his wife, Terri, 55, and their daughter, Ceason, 32. Their son, Colton, 26, lives in Montana. Terri is a nurse practitioner at Charleston Area Medical Center. Ceason, who earned a law degree from West Virginia University, works as a title abstractor. A maintenance staff keeps Ranson Hollows’ large tracts of land manicured.

Situated atop a mountain, Ranson Hollows is available to rent for special occasions or family vacations. some land for the hay. The original 100 acres has been in the family since the early 1960s. As adjoining farms came up for sale, the Ransons purchased them until the size of the land grew to 450 acres. Each tract of land came with a house that is now occupied by a relative. “I have three brothers, a niece and two nephews who live here,” he said. “There are seven family houses.” Houses on the family compound are spaced so far apart that everyone is ensured of privacy, including those who rent the cabin and chalet. The cabin and chalet are rented as one unit to ensure the solitude of guests. The three-bedroom chalet and one-bedroom cabin are situated at the end of a hollow near a pond stocked with fish. The cabin is rustic with one bedroom containing a double and single bed and a large open room with sectional sofa, fishing paraphernalia and a kitchen area featuring a camp stove and running water. The adjoining bathroom is entered from outside and is equipped with a claw foot tub and a toilet that composts. The charming chalet is an A-frame with three levels. The first floor includes a sunroom, kitchen, dining room, bedroom, bathroom and laundry room. The second level has a great room with gas fireplace, tall windows that flood the area with light and doors that open onto a large deck overlooking the land. There is a bedroom with a king-sized bed and a bathroom with a shower. The loft area has two full-sized beds and a walk-in closet. The cabin sleeps four to six people while the chalet accommodates another six to eight. The rental fee for both is $200 a night or $1,200 for the week. A two-night minimum is required. Since they began renting four years ago, some groups have returned each year. Visitors love the solitude and seeing the turkeys, deer, squirrels and a variety of birds. Home From Page C1 Wilks also spoke about the park that will be built once the house is gone. He said as much of the ornate outside trim work and inside woodwork as possible has been salvaged, and is being stored in a hangar at the Mason County Airport. Some of those original house materials will be used at the park. Wilks noted this will not be a playground-type park, but a serene park that will be perfect for reading since it adjoins the Mason City Library. The library will also be able to use the additional property for its programs. Plans call for a gazebo or arbor, or a combination of both. A $3,600 grant was awarded in December 2013 by the Robert and Louise Claflin Foundation for the park structures. Wilks said town officials agreed to provide the upkeep once the park is completed. Talk has been ongoing with the Mason County Vocational-Technical Center regarding the possibility of the students there becoming involved in building the park structures. Two fiberglass panels will flank the entrance to the park, one in memory of Lewis and the other describing the significance of the house, which was built around 1885. Photo by Mindy Kearns The former Virgil A. Lewis House, located on Brown Street in Mason, is being razed to make way for a park to be dedicated in his memory. Lewis, the first West Virginia state historian, a state superintendent of schools, and noted history book author, lived in the house from 19051912. Owned by the county, the house was once a museum but had become a safety hazard, according to John Gerlach, administrator of the Mason County Commission. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
