Field of Hope notes anniversary of progress
By Sharla Moody
Special to OVP

VINTON, Ohio — On Saturday, members of the Gallia
community gathered at the
Field of Hope Community
Campus at the old North Gallia High School to celebrate
recovery, discuss the expansion
of the organization’s mission,
eat breakfast, and note the
dedication of the nonproﬁt’s
renovated gym.
“Field of Hope is just a
piece of the puzzle (in addiction rehabilitative services),”
Linda Phillips, Field of Hope’s
program director, said. “It’s a
community thing, too…All of
you are pieces in the puzzle,
too. Community connection is
integral.”
Field of Hope is a faith-based
nonproﬁt that focuses on drug
and alcohol rehabilitative services. According to the organization’s executive director
Amber Richards, “about 200
men and women came through
the program” this year, and
“two-thirds have completed the
program.” At the celebration
on Saturday, attendees shared
stories and joy of recovery.
“I was close to death many
times,” Geana Knowlton, a
woman who graduated from
Field of Hope’s program in
May, said. “This place makes a

difference every day in people’s
lives because it is hallowed
ground. It takes so much
prayer…Today I move out of
Field of Hope and step into my
new apartment. I’m ready.”
Others congratulated those
who have achieved recovery.
“I send a lot of women to
Field of Hope,” Margaret
Evans, Gallia County Common
Pleas Court judge, said. “All we
do is give you an opportunity
to make a change. You’re the
ones that make that change.”
“What has happened in this
building is an image of what
God is doing in the lives of
these women,” Vinton Baptist
Pastor Heath Jenkins said.
Speakers also placed empha-

sis on recovery as a victory
achieved through community
engagement.
“When I say congratulations,
it’s to say congratulations to
everyone in the community for
their efforts,” Evans said.
Others echoed the sentiment,
including Gallia County Sheriff
Matt Champlin.
“I feel like we’re very blessed
to live in Gallia county,” Champlin said. “I’m very thankful
for the opportunities we have
in this community. As law
enforcement, a lot of communities have these connections.”
He added that addiction
cannot be solved by just law
enforcement or the courts.
“We can’t do this alone,”

Champlin said. “The problems
we face today aren’t a law
enforcement problem or a court
problem. They’re all our problems, we have ownership, and
we must work together.”
State and national ofﬁcials
also spoke at the event. Ohio
State Representative Jason
Stephens and State Senator
Bob Peterson expressed their
support for Field of Hope, noting that they have “been able to
put in capitol dollars to help”
assist in the nonproﬁt’s mission. Lt. Gov. Jon Husted was
supposed to make an address
at the event but was unable to
attend. Juli Stephens, a representative for U.S. Congressman
Bill Johnson, spoke on behalf of
Johnson.
“Congressman Johnson has
been glad to support Field of
Hope,” Stephens said. “He
talks about Field of Hope so
many places…He sends his
thanks to all of you.” A video
presentation also showed Johnson expressing his support for
the organization.
Speakers also addressed the
future endeavors of Field of
Hope, including expanding its
food pantry. According to Field
of Hope’s Program Director
John Jenkins, the nonproﬁt
serviced about 500 people per

TODAY IN HISTORY
The Associated Press

Today is Tuesday, June 16, the 168th day of
2020. There are 198 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History
On June 16, 1996, Russian voters went to the
polls in their ﬁrst independent presidential election; the result was a runoff between President
Boris Yeltsin (the eventual winner) and Communist challenger Gennady Zyuganov (geh-NAH’dee
zyoo-GAH’-nawf).
On this date
In 1567, Mary, Queen of Scots, was imprisoned
in Lochleven Castle in Scotland. (She escaped
almost a year later but ended up imprisoned
again.)
In 1858, accepting the Illinois Republican
Party’s nomination for the U.S. Senate, Abraham
Lincoln said the slavery issue had to be resolved,
declaring, “A house divided against itself cannot
stand.”
In 1883, baseball’s ﬁrst “Ladies’ Day” took place
as the New York Gothams offered women free
admission to a game against the Cleveland Spiders. (New York won, 5-2.)
In 1903, Ford Motor Co. was incorporated.
In 1911, IBM had its beginnings as the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Co. which was incorporated in New York State.
In 1932, President Herbert Hoover and Vice
President Charles Curtis were renominated at the
Republican National Convention in Chicago.
In 1933, the National Industrial Recovery Act
became law with President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s
signature. (The Act was later struck down by the
U.S. Supreme Court.) The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was founded as President Roosevelt
signed the Banking Act of 1933.
In 1963, the world’s ﬁrst female space traveler,
Valentina Tereshkova (teh-ruhsh-KOH’-vuh),
26, was launched into orbit by the Soviet Union
aboard Vostok 6; Tereshkova spent 71 hours in
ﬂight, circling the Earth 48 times before returning
safely.
On June 16, 1967, the three-day Monterey International Pop Music Festival, a major event of the
“Summer of Love,” opened in northern California;
among the featured acts were Jefferson Airplane,
The Who, the Grateful Dead, the Jimi Hendrix
Experience, Janis Joplin, Otis Redding and Ravi
Shankar.
In 1970, Kenneth A. Gibson of Newark, N.J.,
became the ﬁrst black politician elected mayor
of a major Northeast city. Chicago Bears running
back Brian Piccolo, 26, died at a New York hospital after battling cancer.
In 1978, President Jimmy Carter and Panamanian leader Omar Torrijos (toh-REE’-ohs) signed
the instruments of ratiﬁcation for the Panama
Canal treaties during a ceremony in Panama City.
In 1987, a jury in New York acquitted Bernhard
Goetz (bur-NAHRD’ gehts) of attempted murder
in the subway shooting of four youths he said
were going to rob him; however, Goetz was convicted of illegal weapons possession. (In 1996, a
civil jury ordered Goetz to pay $43 million to one
of the persons he had shot.)
Ten years ago: After meeting with President
Barack Obama at the White House, BP Chairman
Carl-Henric Svanberg announced the oil giant
was establishing a $20 billion claim fund and suspending dividends as he insisted, “We care about
the small people.” Movie director Ronald Neame
(“The Poseidon Adventure”) died in Los Angeles
at age 99.

Jenkins believes that

Being a prevention

“The plan is to have a

said. “There’ll be a walking track, a wall of memory for those that have
lost people to substance
abuse…Then we’re going
to have a sculpture that
represents Jesus helping break the chains of
addiction.”
Kevin Lyles, a sculptor and professor of art
at the University of Rio

design the sculpture.
“We’re really happy,
thrilled and blessed to

Safe return for golf as Berger wins Colonial
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP)
— Daniel Berger dreamed of
moments like this, a putt on the
ﬁnal hole with everything riding on it, and he pulled it off to
perfection Sunday at Colonial.
What he never imagined is
how quiet it would be.
No cheers when his 10-foot
birdie on the ﬁnal hole gave
him a share of the lead. No
groans when Collin Morikawa
missed a 6-foot birdie putt for
the win. And more silence on
the ﬁrst playoff hole that Berger won with a par.
“It was a little different for
sure, but in the end, I was holding the trophy,” Berger said.
“And that’s all that matters to
me.”
The PGA Tour made a
healthy and muted return from

win in regulation, Morikawa hit
a superb pitch on the 17th hole
in the playoff to 3 feet. Berger
converted his simple up-anddown for par from behind the
green, and Morikawa’s short
par putt to extend the playoff
hit the right side of the cup and
spun out.
“Just hit a better putt,” Morikawa said. “My mind can’t go
much else than other what just
happened on that hole.”

side and came out on the left.
His 25-foot birdie putt on the
18th to force a playoff was right
on line and came up short.
“If there are fans and everything with the ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs,’
I’d probably be a little more
(ticked) off,” Schauffele said.
“Maybe that’s a good thing for
me right now. But it was deﬁnitely weird. It was sort of an
internal battle, which it always
is for me, but more so internal
this week just with no fans.”
Berger, whose birdie on
the 18th gave him a 4-under
66, won for the third time on
the PGA Tour, all three titles
coming on this week in the calendar. The other two in 2016
and 2017 were at the St. Jude
Classic when it preceded the
U.S. Open.

Denny Hamlin
wins on a long day
at Homestead
HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — Denny Hamlin
found the magic at Homestead-Miami Speedway,
once again.
Hamlin went to the lead for the ﬁnal time with
30 laps left and held off Chase Elliott for his
record-tying third NASCAR Cup Series victory at
Homestead.
Former drivers Tony Stewart and Greg Bifﬂe are
the other three-time winners. Hamlin is in the club
now, after battling Elliott most of the night.
“This one was real special,” Hamlin said.
Hamlin raced to his third victory of the season
and 40th overall. He opened the season with a
victory in the Daytona 500 and won at Darlington
last month. And when the night was over, Hamlin
— who wears the Michael Jordan “Jumpman” logo
on his race suit — made no secret that he’s racing
with some extra energy these days.
“I’m motivated. I’m motivated more than ever,”
Hamlin said.
He led 137 of 267 laps on the 1 1/2-mile track in
Joe Gibbs Racing’s No. 11 Toyota, ﬁnishing 0.895
ahead of Elliott.
“I just need to get through lap trafﬁc better,”
Elliott said.

Playing for free, salary drop, 2022 lockout possible
NEW YORK (AP) —
Jeremy Jeffress, Jordan
Montgomery, Kevin
Plawecki could be playing for free this season,
earning salaries lower
than what they already
received as advances.
Mookie Betts, George
Springer, J.T. Realmuto,
James Paxton and Marcus Stroman are likely to
ﬁnd fewer bidders, dollars
and contract years as the
free-agent market lurches
into a free fall next offseason.
And all of baseball
could be bracing for a
spring training lockout
and shortened 2022 season after the coronavirus
pandemic heightened the
likelihood of the sport’s
ﬁrst work stoppage since
1994-95.
“Bryce Harper, Manny
Machado, Christian
Yelich, all these guys are
lucky that they signed,”
former Miami Marlins
president David Samson
said Sunday. “The biggest
people you should watch
this offseason are Mookie
Betts and J.T. Realmuto
because J.T. thought
that he would surpass
Joe Mauer and Buster
Posey, and there is likely
no chance. And Mookie
Betts thought that he
would be above Bryce
Harper and I would view
that as much less likely
now.”
The pathogen highlighted each side’s economic interest: players
care most about the
regular season, when
they accrue the entirety
of their salaries; owners
worry about the postsea-

son, when $787 million in
broadcast revenue is due.
Major League Baseball
owners are left with the
decision of how long a
regular season to schedule after players’ union
head Tony Clark said Saturday night that “unfortunately it appears that
further dialogue with the
league would be futile.”
Bruce Meyer, the
union’s chief negotiator,
sent Deputy Commissioner Dan Halem a letter
that “we demand that you
inform us of your plans
by close of business on
Monday.”
A March 26 agreement called for players to
receive prorated salaries
and bound the sides to
“complete the fullest
2020 championship season and postseason that
is economically feasible,”
consistent with a series
of provisions: no government restrictions on mass
gatherings, no travel
restrictions and no health
or safety risk “to stage
games in front of fans
in each of the 30 clubs’
home ballparks.”
It also called for MLB
and the union to “discuss
in good faith the economic feasibility of playing
games in the absence of
spectators or at appropriate substitute neutral
sites.”
Commissioner Rob
Manfred has threatened
a regular-season of about
50 games, which would
lead to players receiving about 31% of their
salaries, about $1.23 billion. That is less than the
$1.27 billion they were

guaranteed in the offer
they turned down, a deal
worth $1.45 billion if the
postseason is completed.
MLB appears likely to
announce a decision after
Manfred confers with the
30 controlling owners.
Barring a move toward
a deal, both sides probably will ﬁle grievances.
The union would claim
MLB failed to schedule
the longest season possible and ask for money
damages.
The union would say
to make an evaluation it
needs documents detailing the equity relationships between baseball
owners and regional
sports networks, and
between owners and real
estate ventures adjacent
to ballparks. MLB would
claim the union did not
bargain in good faith.
Players say they have
no obligation to help
clubs reduce expenses
caused by playing in
empty ballparks. Agent
Scott Boras says the MLB
stance is akin to saying:
“When lighting strikes
you, you tell the runners
no race until you ﬁx my
track.”
Arbitrator Mark
Irvings, who ruled against
Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant in the
service time manipulation
grievance ﬁled by the
union, would likely spent
months ruling on document demands before the
sides even start to present the merits of the case.
Players have received
$170 million in salary
advances, up to $286,500
each. That means a player

with a salary of about
$925,000 or less whose
contract did not include a
lower rate of pay while in
the major leagues — Jeffress, Montgomery and
Plawecki, among them —
already has received more
money that he would be
owed under the proration
formula.
Those players wouldn’t
have to return any
money; instead, the
money would be paid
back to MLB by the

he has essentially become the
face of the movement that led
to NASCAR’s decision last
week to ban the Confederate
ﬂag from tracks.
“He’s got the weight of the
world on his shoulders, being
the only African-American
driver and with what’s going
on with the climate of the
world right now and taking
a stand,” Kamara said. “He’s
backed into a corner right
now, and it takes a lot of courage to be in the place that he’s
in and still say, ‘You know
what, I’m going to stand up
for what’s right’ instead of just
being quiet.”

“I don’t know a thing about
NASCAR,” said Jennifer
McClellan, one of the fans in
attendance. “But I know days
like today are going to be talked about for a long time.”
Kamara thinks the same
way.
Sunday was his ﬁrst time at
a NASCAR race, but not his
ﬁrst time at a NASCAR track
— he caught a touchdown
pass in Tennessee’s 45-24 win
over Virginia Tech at Bristol
in 2016. He has known Wallace for a few years, though
he confessed he didn’t know
much about auto racing until
now.
Not only did he laud Wallace’s courage for speaking
out, he also had high praise
for the white drivers standing
with Wallace.

“I’m just going to be honest
and say it gives some of these
white drivers, who are predominant in the sport, a platform for them to be like, ‘You
know what? I know it’s been
wrong this whole time. Let
me say the right thing now,’”
Kamara said. “Maybe before
they weren’t comfortable to
say it.”
The ﬂag issue was key for
Kamara — who, when he was
in college, lived in a dorm
where the Confederate ﬂag
was displayed two doors away.
“For NASCAR to come
together and be comfortable with where they are as a
brand, as an organization to
be like, ‘You know, it’s been
wrong this whole time’ … you
can’t really be mad at them for
that,” Kamara said.

all day,” said Matt Coons, a
roller coaster fanatic from
Hamilton, Ohio, who drove
seven hours to Wisconsin
last month for opening day
at Mt. Olympus Water and
Theme Park.
Coons took note that
some people standing in
lines were good about
social distancing and
“some had no care.”
“It was hit or miss, for
the most part people were
pretty good,” he said.
“As the day went on, you
kind of forget, you get in
theme park mode. I had to
remind myself.”
Park operators have
conducted trial runs with
employees to determine
such things as how to
maintain social distancing
while loading rides and
checking restraints.
Holiday World, in Santa
Claus, Indiana, decided
it won’t allow riders to
sit in the front seat on

because that’s too close to
the ride’s operator. It also
won’t operate a kiddie
canoe ride — too much
lifting the little ones in
and out of the boat, said
Koch, whose family has
owned the park for four
generations.
The challenge this summer, she said, will be keeping that same magical feeling from past years.
“There’s not anything
about this season that will
be perfect,” she said.
