Stop Your Sobbing. John Coltrane. Wedding Band. Rocket City, presumably named for the flowers’ bright orange hues. But the name of her recent fame is that of three awards Wilcox won at a local daylily show at the Cleveland Botanical Garden July 21. The Northeast Ohio Daylily Society holds the annual show. At that show, Wilcox won the American Hemerocallis Society (AHS) Section Rosette for the Most Outstanding Registered Small Daylily Flower award. That flower, “Dragons Eye,” is located in an Oriental-themed section of her garden on Parker Drive. It received both a blue and a purple ribbon. She also won the society’s Sweepstakes Rosette, awarded to the exhibitor winning the most blue ribbons at the show. Finally, she won the People’s Choice Award. Visitors to the show were asked to vote, via bal- lot, on the daylily they cherished the most. Wilcox’s “Something Else” won her that award. “The judges for this show were from out of the area,” she said, adding they were all AHS members. “These daylilies are judged based on color, form, texture, substance and other categories,” Wilcox said. Wilcox and her husband, Bob, moved to Chester Town- ship in 1964, from out of state. At the time, their property was all wooded before they built a house. She taught business and Spanish in various local scho ol districts, including then-North- view Elementary – now Robert C. Lindsey Elementary – in the township. In her free time, she and her husband worked to create and cultivate their daylily gardens. Most recently, the pair would exhibit daylilies at the Kingwood Center in Mansfield during the Ohio Daylily Society Shows. The Kingwood Center, founded in 1952, is a cultural and education- al center with an emphasis on ornamental horticulture and gar- dening. It opened as a public garden in 1953, according to the center’s website. Today, her garden currently is an official AHS Display Garden. Each daylily is marked with both its registered name and its hybridizer. Hybridizers are those who breed daylilies, according to the daylilies.org encyclopedia website. Daylily• Page 3 By Ann Wishart About 35 Russell Township residents were very quiet last Wednesday when Fiscal Officer Chuck Walder explained the township’s problems and what officials propose to solve them. “Significant outside factors have changed Russell Township’s funding,” he said. “Without your support, our solutions will not work.” Unless there are changes in the township’s organization and the passage of three levies in November, the township could be in the red by 2015, the fiscal officer explained “We will consume the bulk of our carryover balance in the gen- eral and police funds by Decem- ber 2014. By January 2015, there would not be enough carryover cash for the first quarter of 2015 expenses,” Walder said. He displayed a number of charts and figures showing the general fund will be depleted by the end of 2014 due mainly to the state’s elimination of the estate tax and Gov. John Kasich’s budget, which decimates the intergovernmental funds. They have shrunk from more than $100,000 in 2008 to about $15,000 in 2013, according to Walder’s chart, which showed revenue from these funds has averaged $622,000 per year. This year, the figure is just over $21,000. “We call this the Mueller chart,” Walder said, crediting the township trustee. “Jim made copies and said, ‘This is what you need to think about.’” Overall, the township will be receiving about $583,000 less in 2014 than they did in 2008. “The general fund would run a deficit of $583,000 per year,” Walder said. “That converts to 2.31 mills in today’s market.” Trustees took a holistic look at the township’s finances, not excluding the 3 mills of “inside” millage the township receives that the state levies without the vote of the people. The income from those 3 mills goes to the township to Russell Twp. Officials Give Funding Outlook By Ann Wishart Unable to find a better solu- tion, Russell Township Trustees voted last Monday to propose — via letter to the Western Reserve Land Conservancy — an equine courtesy patrol to spot trespassers in the town- ship’s Upper Chagrin Preserve. The 151-acre woodland was given to the township by Lucia Nash in 1999, said Township Trustee Jim Dickinson. A previous board of trustees placed the parcel in a conserva- tion easement with severe res- trictions as to how the property can be used, he said at a July 3 meeting. However, there have been reports of people trespassing on the acreage, including setting up deer stands for hunting, driving ATVs along trails and through waterways and cutting firewood, Dickinson said last Monday. Not only does the township not have enough police officers to patrol the preserve, they don’t have easy access to the trails for that purpose, he said. At the July 3 meeting, four members of the Ohio Horse- men’s Council Geauga chapter proposed the idea of an equine patrol to serve as “eyes and ears” on the preserve. Members would combine old-fashioned horse riding with cell phone cameras to spot and take pictures of any trespassers in the preserve, they said. Last Monday, Dickinson said he had drafted a letter to John Leech, chairman of the WRLC board of trustees, and he asked trustees Justin Madden and Jim Mueller to approve sending it. “It’s a good idea to have someone in there,” Mueller said, emphasizing the patrol is not to interfere with any illegal activi- ties in the preserve. “They are not to be telling people what to do,” he said, adding they’re just getting pic- tures and leaving, then giving Russell Trustees Ask WRLC to Allow Equine Patrol of Preserve WRLC• Page 3 Funding• Page 3 Chester Twp.

Chester Twp. Resident Wins Awards at Daylily Show

operate their business, Waldersaid.
Historically, the township hasallotted 2.1 mills of the insidemillage to the road department,which also receives revenue fromlevies, the chart shows.
The police department hasbeen subsidized by the generalfund, as have maintenance, zon-ing and the cemeteries, while thefire department depends onvoted levy revenue and moniesthat come in from their emer-gency medical services.
In case of a catastrophe, thegeneral fund with the estate taxboost, served as the bank, Waldersaid.
“The carryovers are justplummeting,” he said, adding thetownship needs $1 million ormore to stay out of the red andmoving the problem from dep-artment to department is not anoption.
“Each department mustmove towards fiscal self-suffi-ciency. The general fund bankhas closed,” he said.
Walder and trustees areundertaking six initiatives tochange the townships’ fiscal land-scape:
• Consider selling or repur-posing township-owned proper-ties;
• Enact procedural checksand opportunities;
• Move toward departmentsstanding on their own, fiscally,and;
• Reduce operational costssuch as gas, electric, phones,cleaning, etc.
With that in mind, they havecut 12 phone lines, eliminatedcleaning services and reducedtrash pickup. Elected officialsvoluntarily reduced their pay by10 percent and will pay for theirown meals at the Geauga
Township Association quarterlymeetings. They have suspendedemployee pay raises except thoseunder contract and increased theamount employees pay for hea-lth insurance from 10 percent to15 percent.
Officials are also looking atlongevity pay whereby employ-ees get automatic raises at givenperiods in their employment.
The road department hasbeen receiving 2.1 mills of the 3inside mills, so the officials arereallocating that $277,310 to thegeneral fund and placing areplacement road and bridgelevy of 1.1 mills on the Novem-ber ballot, Walder said.
“This road and bridge levy isnot additional revenue for theroad department, it is merelyreplacing funds (that are going)to the general fund,” he told theaudience.
Trustees have also agreed toplace a 0.25-mill cemetery levyon the ballot, which, if passed,will cover most of the cemeteryoperating expenses, Walder said.
The five-year levy will gener-ate about $60,000 per year andthe cemeteries take about$88,000 per year.
“It takes a big chunk out ofthat $88,000. We anticipate mak-ing up the balance with increasedfees and cost reductions,” Waldersaid.
A 1975 police levy will bereplaced with a 1.5-mill continu-ing levy to provide Russell policewith enough revenue to be self-sustaining, he said.
The eight-officer police dep-artment is dependent on the gen-eral fund for about $160,000,Walder said, adding if passed, thelevy would make it possible toreplace the full-time and part-time officers who have takenjobs elsewhere.
The fire department does notrequire funds from the generalfund, but with the advent of theAffordable Healthcare for Ame-rica Act, that could change, hesaid.
However, the fire departmentis not part of the reorganizationplan, yet, Walder said.
The road and bridge continu-ing 1.1-mill levy would cost ahomeowner $37.90 annually per$100,000 property valuation.
The five-year, 0.25-mill ceme-tery levy would cost the samehomeowner $8.61 per year andthe 1.5-mill continuing replace-ment levy for the police depart-ment would cost a homeownerabout $38.48 per year, Waldersaid.

Her daylilies are grown inisland beds that contain otherlawn trees and perennials.
“That way, when the dayliliesaren’t blooming, other plants fillthe garden in. That’s why dayliliesare known as daylilies. They onlylast a day,” Wilcox said.
The yard has also logged sev-eral Lovin’ Care Yard Awardsfrom the Perennial Garden Clubof Chesterland. Some awards arefeatured on plaques mountednext to her front door, while oth-ers are inside the house.

the information to the police forenforcement purposes.
Besides using the cell phonesto take pictures or video andrecord verbal details, phones canalso be used to pinpoint theactivity through the global posi-tioning system.
“We need to police the area.This is the best solution I cansee,” said Madden, who hadvoiced concerns about safety andliability at the earlier meeting.
Having ridden horses for afew years, he said he knowshorses can be unreliable andmay not react well if faced withan ATV roaring at them fromthe brush.
However, he said last Mon-day, if the OHC patrol signswaivers relieving the township ofliability, he will be satisfied.
Dickinson, who rides with theChagrin Valley Hunt, said there isa state law that any adult riding ahorse is responsible for his or herown welfare, which relieves prop-erty owners of liability.
Residents who own propertyabutting the preserve would beinformed of the patrol’s activa-tion and asked to contact a riderif they see illegal activity, OHCmembers said.
The only dissenting voice lastMonday belonged to trustees’secretary Melissa Palmer. Sheobjected to allowing horses onthe trails, but not walkers.
“Anybody else is (guilty of)criminal trespass,” she said.
Madden asked why there aretrails through the preserve if hik-ers don’t have access to them.
Since the acreage is in theconservancy, the only pedestri-ans allowed in the preserve maybe there for educational pur-poes only, Dickinson said.
The township’s role is clear.“We’re there to protect the
natural order,” he said.Mueller asked if the trustees
could resolve to allow pedestri-ans in the preserve and Dickin-son said it would be up to theWRLC.
“I’d like to look into the lan-guage of the easement,” Maddensaid.

Origami Creations byKerry RempSubmitted
For the month of August,JADE Gallery welcomes localpaper artist Kerry Remp, whowill be teaching a three-classseries on origami.
From 1-4 p.m. Aug. 3, thegallery will be opening for a soloexhibition featuring Kerry’sorigami artwork.
Remp’s origami classes willtake place on the three consecu-tive Saturdays following his soloexhibition (Aug. 10, 17 and 24).
Remp began his journeyexploring origami back in 2007,when he picked up a book fromthe library to keep himselfentertained during down timeon a business trip.
In a matter of six years, hisjourney took him from a begin-ner’s curiosity to a skilled fineart.
“When it dawned on me thatI could actually build thingswith paper, I was hooked,” hesays.
Over the years, this idea hasled Remp to create a multitudeof innovative origami piecesembodying a level of creativity
far beyond that of the typicalflower or crane.
One example is Remp’sunique origami patchwork quilt,which students will learn to cre-ate themselves.
“Every time I teach, I hopeto not only pass on my knowl-edge of how to make something,but also to share the joy andspirit of adventure that creatingan original work of art can pro-duce,” he said. “This upcomingseries will be focused on one ofmy origami quilt designs — thePatchwork Quilt.”
He added, “Resemblingquilts from both long ago aswell as modern day, these piecesoften bring wonderful memo-ries with them for both the per-son creating them as well asthose who may view the com-pleted projects. If I can instillthis sense of joy and satisfactionin the participants, the sessionwill have been a success.”
Within the past few months,Remp has participated as aRAW Artist at the EXPRES-SIONS show in Lakewood,taught classes through the LakeMetropark system, at Brecken-ridge Senior Living Center and
at Leroy Elementary School toassist the educators with aunique learning experience forthe fifth grade students.
Driven by his “constant pur-suit of new ways to create thingsand make the world a betterplace,” Remp’s origami artworkis truly inspirational.

Turney’s HardwareThe difference between a
good paint job and one that isso-so is all in the amount ofpreparation.
The work put into it beforepainting makes all the difference.
For instance, if planning tostain the deck and it is notwashed and cleaned first, oddsare it will not look good and notlast.
Any dirt on the surface cancause the coating to not adhere.
Peeling paint is never wel-come. If a deck cleaner is usedfirst and the deck is allowed todry, better results will beachieved.
Many decks have multiplecoatings on them. Throughoutthe years, these can build up.
In this case, it would be wiseto use a stripper to remove allthe finish and start fresh.Turney’s offers many productsto get the job done right.
The same advice holds truewhen it comes to painting out-side.
Washing the house downbefore painting promotes betteradhesion. Be sure that the sur-face is thoroughly dry; else themoisture will cause the paint topeel.
Painting over wood that isdamp traps the water under-neath the coating and it needsto go somewhere.
Usually, the paint gives waybecause of it. Painting over dirtand moisture are two of themost common paint failuresoutdoors.
If prepped right, the houseand deck will look good for along time.
Stop in to Turney’s paintdepartment, 12670 West Gea-uga Plaza or call 440729-2130.

Metzenbaum CenterSpecial Olympics Night
On July 20, The MetzenbaumCenter Special Olympics attend-ed the Lake County Captainsbaseball game. It is the 12th yearthe Geauga County Board ofDevelopmental Disabilities hasorganized this event.
Over 130 individuals andfamilies attended.
Jen Gerber was selected tosing the National Anthembefore the game. Long after Jenwas done singing and back inher seat, she kept receivingcompliments.
People all evening long werecongratulating her and com-
menting on what a great job shedid. Jen went to open auditionsin February at Great LakesMall.
She was picked to sing andthe Captains chose the SpecialOlympics game for her to per-form at.
The Metzenbaum Centerwas also given the honor ofthrowing out the first pitch.
Nine-year-old Wayne Ran-dall, Jr, representing the SpecialOlympics, threw the pitch.
Wayne’s father died sud-denly earlier this year, so thiswas something positive for himto focus on. He got to keep theball and a Captains playerhanded it to him personally.

Chester Township FDAppreciation
As a member of the ChesterTownship Fire Department from1980-2006, I often witnessed thedevotion and courage of the fireand medical personnel whenthey received a call for help.
These firefighters and para-medics work part time for thiscommunity and often must go toa different full-time or part-timejob the next day or may havejust come home from one ofthose jobs to work here.
Some voluntarily leave theirhomes to respond and assistwhen needed.
At 2 a.m., it’s no different.A few weeks ago, I awoke to
a horrendous popping andcracking sound and discovered aneighbor’s house engulfed inflames.
Luckily, the house had beenabandoned for more than a year,but none the less, had to besearched by firefighters.
I waited by the street for thefirst engine to arrive, which onlytook a few minutes.
Once again, I witnessed thatdevotion and courage as theyentered the building, searchedand brought the fire under con-trol under the command ofChief Wargelin, who also res-ponded to the early morningfire.
I would like to thank all ofthe firefighters, but especiallylieutenants Nagy and Osborne,firefighters Mathews and Kerr,and EMT Sanders for onceagain displaying their dedicationand efforts for our community.
