City officials announced that they received notices Tuesday morning, demanding a return of funds and formally canceling the inaugural Lake Erie Boat Week due to a lack of financial viability. Both notices were presented to the city by Event Director and Organizer Janie Vo- gel. The city and greater Erie County community, worked for more than a year with Vogel to sup- port the event’s establishment before Tuesday’s abrupt cancellation. According to past press releases, ProRace Marketing LLC, the event producer of Lake Erie Boat Week, had signed a contract with the City of Huron to host the inaugural Lake Erie Boat Week event. The boating event was scheduled to be held at the Huron Boat Basin Sept. 7-12. ProRace Marketing LLC had also signed a contract with APR Events Group, producers of the APR Pow- erboat Superleague, a race that was to be part of the week and held in the Huron River on Sept. 11-12, according to information provid- ed to the Huron Hometown News in July. Organizers had predicted that Lake Erie Boat Week would attract 100,000-plus people and bring in millions of dollars to the local Erie Is- lands economy. The event was to consist of the Nationwide Insurance Powerboat Regatta; the “Fastest Boat on Lake Erie” competition held on Lake Erie; and an APR Powerboat Super- league powerboat race (100-mph boats), held in the river and at the boat basin. City officials state that as recently as eight days ago Vogel pledged publicly: “[I] do not feel the event is being diminished by any means and . . . could draw even larger crowds.” Ac- cording to city officials, Vogel was attending a meeting to address three breaches to the event’s contract with the city, including the absence of appropriate insurance to conduct the proposed event’s activities on water. The Huron City Council authorized a con- tract with Vogel on July 27, only to learn on Aug. 2 that Vogel unilaterally terminated her contractual obligations with the American Power Racing Powerboat Superleague despite an obligation to produce an APR event as part of Lake Erie Boat Week, according to a state- ment released by the city. Vogel also released a statement: “I would like to thank the City of Huron, including City Manager Andy White, Mayor Marilyn Shearer, City Council Members, City Administration including Terry Griffith, Laura Alkire, John Majoy, Steve Osterling, Doug Steinwart, and the rest of the City staff and community who agreed to host Lake Erie Boat Week at the Hu- ron Boat Basin this late summer. “It is with great heartache that I am announc- ing this spectacular Lake Erie Boat Week event won’t take place in Huron this year, “Vogel continued. “All efforts were made to create a situation where this event could happen in that community, but it was not possible due to dif- ficult circumstances beyond my control that made it impossible to continue. “Thank you to all of my sponsors, support- ers, vendors, suppliers, and supportive media that have kept this amazing event going this year. I was so close, and we almost got it done. I hope you will consider continuing your jour- ney with me in getting a major boating festival off of the ground on Lake Erie in the future.” The Huron High School Cheerleaders wish to thank the community for the tremendous support of their Fund- raiser Car Washes these past three weekends. More than $1,500 was raised because of community donations. The squad also wishes to thank Jim’s Pizza Box, Rye Beach Piz- za-N-Deli, and the Huron Eagles Club for hosting the car washes. See you at the Stadium – Go Tigers! This Saturday, Aug. 21, several BGSU Firelands’ offices will be open to assist students with the registration process for fall semester. The student accounts, financial aid regis- tration and advising offices, and the bookstore will all be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Fall classes begin Monday, Aug. 23. EHOVE Career Center has gained an- other experienced resource in the recent hire of Dale VanLerberghe of Catawba Island as its new assistant principal at the high school. VanLerberghe is filling the position recently vacated by Rod Smith, who moved to the posi- tion of principal of EHOVE. From a farming family in Wake- man, VanLerberghe is a graduate of Western Reserve High School. Knowing he wanted to work with youth, he earned a bachelor’s of sci- ence in education from The Ohio State University and a master’s of education in administration and supervision from Bowling Green State University. VanLerberghe began his career in edu- cation as a teacher in Monroeville Lo- cal Schools. By taking a bigger load of college classes, he graduated early and found a job teaching English and jour- nalism. After working in the school sys- tem, he wanted to do even more for kids in the community. As the founder and first director of the Huron County Youth Group Home, and a strong developer of the Reach Our Youth program, he ex- panded his commitment to make a posi- tive impact in the lives of area kids. “We are all teachers,” said VanLerber- ghe. “Role modeling and showing kids what’s right, not just talking, is first.” He returned to public education as principal of Monroeville Junior/Senior High School, next taking the helm as principal of Port Clinton Middle School, then Port Clinton High School. During this time, he was honored by the com- munity and fellow staff with the Port Clinton Middle School’s Media Center being renamed the Dale M. VanLerber- ghe Learning Center, as well as the 2004 Career Achievement Award from The Ohio State University’s College of Educa- tion Alumni Society, and the Ohio Mid- dle School Association’s Regional Award presented for promoting the middle school concept through exemplary pro- grams. He retired from education in 2006 and decided to take a short trip to – as he de- scribes it – “debrief my career.” The trip became a five week, 4,300-mile experi- ence on his Harley, where he witnessed the damage from Hurricane Katrina and toured many southern states. After his return, he became the chief bailiff and probation officer at Ottawa County Mu- nicipal Court. VanLerberghe has been a member of the Port Clinton Knights of Colum- bus Council; Huron County 648 Men- tal Health Board; Monroeville Village Council; St. Joseph’s School Council; Firelands Conference League; Immacu- late Conception School Council; Cataw- ba Island Board of Zoning Appeals; and several other local organizations. He says that his new role as assistant principal is often seen as just handling discipline, but said it’s also “a chance to instill positive character development in students as a role model and teacher, and have a lot of fun. It’s also a great oppor- tunity to interact with a variety of stu- dents and personalities.” VanLerberghe has been married for 33 years to Margy, who is retired from edu- cation and holds a PhD in psychothera- py. Together they have a daughter, Molly, who recently married Scott Sass and has earned a Bachelor’s of Science in Educa- tion from The Ohio State University, like her father. VanLerberghe is eager to begin the new school year with EHOVE students and staff. “I truly am impressed with the lon- gevity of the staff here at EHOVE. That speaks volumes for how they enjoy what they are doing.” VANLERBERGHE Hole in one Huron High School Student Jake Lehrer Hit a hole in one at Green Hills Golf Course in Clyde recently.

City of Huron offi cials and the organizer of a major boating event have announced the can-cellation of the week-long event that had been scheduled to be hosted in Huron in September.
City offi cials announced that they received notices Tuesday morning, demanding a return of funds and formally canceling the inaugural Lake Erie Boat Week due to a lack of fi nancial viability. Both notices were presented to the city by Event Director and Organizer Janie Vo-gel.

After nearly 40 years of active involvement in commu-nity affairs, the Huron Civic Club is announcing that it has dissolved.
The club began in 1970 with 16 charter members. Two of the original members remained active in the club for all of its 39 years (Barbara Butkus and Micki Clemens) though many people have contributed to the club and are deserv-ing of recognition. Barbara Butkus received the Honorable Women of Excellence Award in 1993 for her efforts in the Huron Civic Club.
In addition to meeting monthly for 39 years, civic activi-ties included testing the hearing of pre-school children; bloodmobiles; driving for Meals on Wheels; making and delivering Christmas favors to area hospitals; conducting Bingo games for the Erie County Care facility as well as providing them with prizes, refreshments, frequent out-ings, and excursions to local restaurants, shops and salons.
The Huron Civic Club initiated the Pet Show and the Bike Parade at the Huron Water Festival and the annual Riverfest. It sponsored various community programs at
the Huron Public Library, collected paper products for the needy, and provided secretarial help to the Huron Cham-ber of Commerce.
Fund-raising activities included a booth at the Christmas Bazaar as well as fashion shows, garage sales, auctions, and raffl es for the community. Members helped Cedar Point in its community efforts and participated in the spectacu-lar Christmas Festival of Lights at Sawmill Creek Resort.
Huron Civic Club provided donations to Safety Town; Dial-a-Drive; the Huron Playhouse; Stein Hospice; the Huron Public Library; Huron High School Band Parents; local school libraries; Salvation Army; Habitat for Human-ity, and families in need. Since 1984 the Huron Civic Club gave a $500 scholarship to a Huron High senior and spon-sored a Huron High School junior to Buckeye Girls’ State starting in 1990. In addition, the club prepared ditty bags to members of the armed services to show appreciation.
The Huron Civic Club wishes to thank the wonderful community, its citizens, and members who made the club an ongoing success and continual source of good will.
The Huron Police Department is taking its community policing efforts to a new level with the start of its second annual Citizen Police Academy in October. The Citizen
Police Academy is designed to teach residents about general law enforcement topics and about the Huron Police Department.
“We want to be able to in-teract more with the com-munity and this is one of
our opportunities to do so,” said Police Chief John Majoy.The CPA will meet every Monday from 6 to 9 p.m., start-
ing Sept. 20 and ending on Nov. 15, 2010. Students will receive instruction on crime scenes, fi rearms, traffi c crash investigation, marine patrol, computer crimes and more. The classes will be taught by Huron police offi cers and dispatchers, along with a class taught by Huron Munici-pal Court Judge William Steuk and Huron City Prosecutor Laura Alkire. A portion of the class will be a patrol partner-ship where students will ride in patrol vehicles with offi cers and dispatchers.
“Most people do not know what a typical day is like for the Huron Police Depart-ment and this is a chance for them to learn about it.” Majoy said.
He added that this will be an opportunity to enhance the Huron Police Depart-ment’s Neighborhood Block Watch Program and Police Auxiliary. “By having more eyes and ears, along with open lines of communica-tion, together we can keep our community safe,” Ma-joy said.
The class is open to all persons that either work or live in Huron. Applicants must be 18 years or older and free from a criminal re-cord. Individuals running for political offi ce for any contested fall race will not be accepted. All applicants must pass a background check prior to admission and will be notifi ed in writ-ing of the status of their ac-ceptance. To apply, call the Huron Police Department at 419-433-4114 or e-mail a request for application to huronpolice@cityofhuron.
org. The application is also available online at www.cityofhuron.com. The class size will be limited, so those interested are encouraged to apply early.
The Huron Garden Club has scheduled a trip for Friday, Aug. 27 to the Schedel Arboretum in Elmore. Those ex-pecting to attend and wish to carpool are advised to meet at the First Huron Presbyterian Church, 225 Williams St., by 8:45 a.m. The group will leave promptly for Elmore at
9 a.m. At the arboretum, a walking or golf cart tour of the gardens is planned, followed by lunch at the Trillium Gal-lery.
The coordinator for this month’s meeting is Sharon Oz-man, 419-433-3025.

BY SPENCER MARUGG
“Should I buy a Mac, or a PC?”In my business, I hear this question
often from my customers. It has be-come much more prolifi c since Apple entered (and subsequently dominat-ed) the world of consumer appliances a la the Ipod and the Iphone. Via these devices, Apple has changed how we listen to music, make phone calls, and absolutely redefi ned cool. But do they make a good computer?
We have all seen the commercials on television. On one hand, we have the young person, proudly proclaiming to be a Mac. He is calm, confi dent, stylish and cool. On the other hand, we have the older person, dressed in a suit that doesn’t fi t well, a boring haircut and glasses. This is the PC. I think it’s obvious given the choice, we’d all rather be the hip young kid.
But is a Mac truly the computer of choice?In this article I would like to point out the pros and cons
of both computers, from my vantage point as a computing professional. I will be addressing this question from fi ve major points that I believe matter most when a customer is considering his or her next computer purchase. Please note I am truly not biased. I just fi x them. To me, it’s all bits and bytes, and more power to the consumer to choose as they see fi t. This is just my answer to a 30-year-old question.
Price/Performance: Winner – PC In terms of raw computing power for the price, a Win-
dows based PC wins hands down. One would be hard pressed to fi nd an Apple of any fl avor running with a comparable processor, equal amounts of ram and hard drive space, and a compa-rably performing video card for the same price that one could aquire a PC. To make matters worse, Apple, re-cently (as in just a few years ago) converted its comput-ing architecture to the x86 Intel based architecture, which basically means that the hardware inside of a Mac is now very, very simi-lar to that which is inside a PC. In fact, some people have even managed to in-stall the Mac OS X operat-ing system on PC hardware, essentially creating what they call a “Hackintosh” and these computers run just fi ne, if not faster than their Apple produced counter-parts. Unfortunately, this is not legal. I only say this to make a point – if you are going to buy an Apple, you are going to pay a very hefty premium for the Apple name and the fl ashy case.
Virus/Spyware Vulner-ability: Winner – Apple
Apple has always been known as the computer to get if you want to avoid get-ting viruses. Allthough it’s not impossible to get a virus on a Mac, your chances are certainly much lower than on a PC. The reason for this is not because Apple has cre-ated a better security solu-tion for the Mac, but rather because there simply aren’t
nearly as many Macs in the hands of end users. Think of it this way, if you were evil, and spent your time creating computer viruses to complicate peoples lives, would you create a virus that would populate 90 percent of the com-puters in the world (PC market share) or 10 percent of the computers in the world (Mac market share). The kicker to this, should Apple’s market share ever increase to say a 50/50 level, I would bet the farm that the amount of virus/spyware we see released for Apples Mac OS X Operating System would greatly increase.
This is not to say that Windows based PCs are terrible vi-ruses. OK, they’re still pretty bad, but anyone who remem-bers Windows 95 through XP could tell you it used to be much worse. For now, just invest in decent virus protection if you plan on buying a PC.
Availability of Software: Winner – PCAllthough the PC wins in this category hands down, The
Mac is making huge strides to increase its available soft-ware base. Truly, almost everything is available for the PC. If there is a program you want, it’s going to be available for Windows. However, this is not nearly as bad as it used to be for Apple. The majority of the “major” programs are now available, such as Offi ce, Adobe based software such as Photoshop and Flash, and many of the newer game re-leases. Also available for Mac are many Windows emula-tors that allow the user to run Windows within a Mac itself (allthough at lower performance). This allows the Mac user almost full access to the Windows library of programs. Allthough the PC is the winner in this category, the Apple Mac isn’t too shabby.
Ease of Use: Tie - PC/MacThere was once a time where the Mac was much easier
to use than the PC. They were the fi rst computer company to release a Graphical User Interface (GUI, pronounced “gooey”) for their LISA computer, which meant no more memorizing and entering cryptic commands to get a com-puter to do something. They also have been a leader in cre-ating ease of use standards, such as USB, and the arguably easier to use, one button mouse. That being said, the PC, using the Windows operating system is no longer very dif-fi cult to use. Windows 7 is very easy to navigate, and one hasn’t needed to use a command line since Windows 98 (unless you’re a techician and you need to fi x something). One point to make, however, is that since many people are more familiar with the Windows based operating system because of greater exposure, many fi nd the PC easier to use, at least in the beginning. That being said though, both opeating systems are very easy to navigate and I can see no compelling argument for either side to promote the idea that one is easier to use than the other.
Coolness Factor: Winner – MacHands down Apple wins here. One look at the Mac OS
X interface and its silky smooth desktop effects, makes it pretty obvious that this computer is absolutely, totally cool. Add in the stylish, Iphone like cases and the ultra high resolution monitors they ship with it, and you’d be hard pressed to fi nd a person who wouldn’t agree that these are the coolest geek toys ever. Windows based PC’s, allthough certainly not the tech nerd beige boxes they used to be, just don’t compare. Remember though, that much cool comes at a price.
Final Verdict:For pricing and performance bang for the buck choose a
PC. For style and protection from viruses, choose a Mac.In closing, one has to give Apple credit (or more appro-
priately, Steve Jobs, Apple CEO) for its marketing genius. When it comes to marketing, Apple is king – it has been known for its top notch advertising campaigns since the very beginning. We all remember the 1984 Super Bowl commercial announcing the Mac – legendary would be an understatement. And with marketing campaigns like that Apple has, over the years, developed a cult-like following of loyal customers who would rather be caught dead than using an “ugly” PC. This level of brand loyalty is truly stag-gering, with only perhaps Harley Davidson garnering the same support among its followers.

On Wednesday, Aug. 11, hundreds of boaters, bikers and residents crowded the parking lot and docks of Quaker Steak & Lube for the second YMCA Boat & Bike Night. The event is the board of directors major fund-raiser ben-efi tting the YMCA Strong Kids/Sustaining Campaign.
Rob Johnston, the Executive Director of the Vermilion
Family YMCA said: “This was a tremendous show of sup-port for the YMCA from the community and surround-ing areas … and we’re just so thrilled to have been able to bring people together for this party at Quaker Steak and Lube for the second year. We were able to dodge the raindrops after rain went through prior to our start, and thankfully stayed away for the rest of the evening.”
Food for the event was provided by Quaker Steak and Lube vendors and volunteers cooking on outside grills. The Vermilion Lions Club provided and served French fries for the crowd.
The highlight of the evening was the concert given by Colin Dussault’s Blues Project, a Cleveland-based band specializing in favorite songs from the past three decades, and a favorite of bikers. There were live and silent auction items donated by local area businesses from Vermilion, Amherst, Lorain, Elyria, Huron and Sandusky, and many outside the area as well. A spirited bidding auction took place for the popular Ohio State vs. Michigan tickets.

On June 5, 2010, a tornado struck Millbury in North-east Ohio. In its path sat the Lake Local School District. When the wind fi nally died down, seven lives were lost.
The high school and the surrounding property were destroyed. It was a tragedy that no one who lives there will ever forget.
But life goes on and with help, the town and dis-trict will rebuild. As sure as autumn will arrive, school will begin again. Many cities, organizations and schools from across the state have sent valu-able help. When the Lake Flyers high school football teams came to Kalahari fi eld last Friday evening, the Huron athletic boosters, the football program, and the basketball program all chipped in to provide re-lief as well.
The calm summer evening began with a scrim-mage between the freshman and reserve teams. Both up-and-coming Huron quarterbacks, Thomp-son and Graham respectively, looked athletic and were unafraid to tuck the ball and run for big gains. Prior to the varsity scrimmage, both teams gathered at mid-fi eld. At this point, Huron head coach Tony Legando gave an impassioned speech to the Flyers about how this season, maybe more than any other, would be about more than just a series of mere foot-ball contests. That Lake’s Friday night games could
be a much-needed escape to the local community that has suffered loss this past year.
Following the talk, Scott Gardner, president of the Huron Ath-letic Booster Club, handed a check for $1,000 to the Lake Local head foot-ball coach. Com-bine that with the school supplies and monetary do-nations collected by Huron’s basket-ball program and what you have are fi ne examples of Tiger generosity.
Huron’s next scrimmage is this next Friday night at home against Bucyrus. All-in-all, the teams’ fi rst
scrimmage had an excellent turnout. The football was certainly of pre-season caliber as the players knocked the rust off. Huron’s passing offense, led by senior Brian Bol-lenbacher, looked solid. The defense was fast and oppor-tunistic. But there was more for the youngsters to learn on Friday night. The evening was about fellowship and giving one’s neighbor a helping hand during trying times. It’s about doing the right thing because next time, the next victim could be you.
