DEAR EDITOR:

With a not so perfect Memorial Day behind us, and before I move on to the next activities on the Veteran Council’s agenda, I want to extend my thanks to those many citizens who braved the cool, damp day and made time in their busy schedule to be a part of our memorial tribute to those comrades who gave there all for their country.

Ah. Summer vacation.

Staying up late. Sleeping in. Hangin’ out with friends. Just doin’ nothin’.

DEAR EDITOR:

Dear Northeastern Van Wert County,

Building on the success of our Blue Creek Wind Farm, the largest single private investment in Ohio in 2011, we are now in the early stages of developing the Dog Creek Wind Farm to the east of Blue Creek.

DEAR EDITOR:
I want to give my deepest thanks to Steve Klausing, Andrea Rode and Eric Fritz of ACE Hardware for donating time and equipment to deliver books from Grove Port to Delphos.
The elementary schools were in need of a new reading series and these people saved the school the money that would have otherwise been spent on shipping and handling which would have been a substantial amount.
We are so fortunate to be in a school district where parents and businesses want to do things for the children of our community.
Thank you so much,
Mark Fuerst

My headline this week may be a bit misleading to some. I don’t want an hour to myself for meditation, relaxation, to read or live vicariously through others on Facebook. I don’t want an hour to take a skin-shriveling bath or work a word puzzle.
