FROM DEE HARTLEY, ENROLLED AGENTAND SENIOR TAX ADVISOR AT H & R BLOCK
When Tax Professionals get together and discuss our pet peeves we all agree that before that fi rst share of stock goes into your name your should be required to take a class, and pass it, on the necessary record keeping respon-sibilities that go along with owning stock.
When you sell most investments in-cluding tax free investments, you will receive a Form 1099-B and need to enter that information on Schedule D. To complete Sched-ule D and determine if you have a gain or loss you will also need to enter the date purchased and the amount paid for the stock.
That might sound simple enough, but what if you bought it through payroll deductions, or the stock split or you re-invested the dividends into more stock or your father gave
it to you on your 16th birthday? As-you-go record keeping can keep the tax return preparation moving smoothly.
You may have read recently that IRS is now requiring brokerage fi rms to provide the cost information when they prepare the tax forms for the sale. Yes, this is true, but . .
It starts with 2011 and is not required for investments made before this year. And if you are trading on your own you are required to keep the records.
Records to keep:• Simple purchase - Purchase confi rmations• Payroll Deduction - End of year summary statements
showing payroll deduction dollars and number of shares purchased each time.
• Dividend Reinvestment - End of year summary show-ing amount of dividends and number of shares purchased.
• Received as a gift – the giver needs to tell you how much he paid for it. Ask now, don’t wait until you sell it, the giver might not be able to tell you then.
• Inherited Stock – the number of shares and the Fair Market Value on the date of death.
The Huron Chamber of Commerce’s annual recognition dinner and Business Expo is set for Tuesday, March 15 at the Kalahari Nia Center.

Collins has been lauded for her “immaculate intonation, refi ned dynamics, and sophisticated phrasing…” Reviewer William Thomas Walker reported, “Her articulation in the fastest passages was breath-taking, and she produced a gor-geous, large tone.”
The 22-year-old North Carolina native was named the 2009 DeLay Fellow at the Aspen Music Festival, the second place laureate at the Portnoy International Violin Compe-tition, and was a winner of the 2008 fall concerto compe-tition at the Cleveland Institute of Music.

In both 2007 and 2009, Collins was the national winner in the MTNA strings competition and was selected as a Young Artist for the Starling-DeLay Symposium at Juilliard. She also has participated in a live taping of “From the Top” with Christopher O’Reilly for National Public Radio.

Safety Town 2011What is Safety Town? This is one of the most impor-
tant educational programs for young children who will be entering Kindergarten in the fall. This 2-week (Monday-Thursday, Monday-Thursday) program is a planned cur-riculum program incorporating classroom activities to familiarize children with the school setting. Safety Town allows children entering Kindergarten to learn safe ways to approach school and everyday situations. The children are taught the basics of fi re, water, traffi c, and playground safety, as well as poison control, bus behavior and seatbelt importance. Huron Parks and Recreation is fortunate to have help from The Huron Fire & Police Departments, Erie Metroparks, Erie County Environmental Services, Ohio State Highway Patrol, Sandusky Power Squadron/Coastie, and Huron City Schools, who help make this program so successful. In addition, we have outstanding Teachers and Safety Town Teen Counselors who create a wonderful, fun and creative environment for our participants. Last but certainly not least, Huron Parks and Recreation has been fortunate to have the support of many local business who help with sponsorship and/or donations toward our daily snacks/supplies. More on these great community partners to follow in future articles.
This year Safety Town will take place from June 13-23 (Mondays-Thursdays) at Shawnee Elementary School. Thursday, June 23rd is Graduation Day… students and parents attend for a Graduation Ceremony/Party! The registration fee is $35 for Residents and $40 for Non-Resi-
dents, the deadline for registration is May 13, 2011. Safety Town Registration Forms are available on our website or at the offi ce.
How do I become a Safety Town Counselor?Safety Town Counselors are one of the most important
parts in running a successful program. Each year we have between 40-50 counselors who donate their time daily. The typical age of a Safety Town counselor is between 6th and 9th grades. We do have some older, experienced Safety Town counselors who are in 10th, 11th and 12th grade. Safety Town Counselors must have completed 6th grade before Safety Town begins.
These counselors are vital in the day-to-day operations of Safety Town. Each counselor is assigned to a classroom or help on the blacktop outside.
More importantly, a Safety Town Counselor is responsi-ble for bringing excitement and energy to the participants. Many children in Safety Town are nervous the fi rst day and it is the role of the counselor to make sure they feel com-fortable. Most importantly, they make sure the kids are safe and have fun.
Safety Town is a great way to help your community and gain Community Service Hours toward your Diploma of Distinction. You must bring the required paperwork from your high school guidance counselor to the counselor meeting prior to the start of Safety Town. Forms will be completed after completion of Safety Town and you will be contacted to pick up these forms when ready.
If this sounds like something you would be interested in, you will need to complete and return a “New Counselor Application Packet” which can be found on our website or pick one up from the offi ce. The deadline for submitting an application is Friday, April 1st, 2011.

EHOVE Adult Education Fire Academy students partnered with Milan Township and Huron River Joint Fire Departments for ice rescue training on EHOVE’s campus.
The training is developed to simulate a possible res-cue situation with less than ideal circumstances. Wear-ing extreme protective gear, trainees and active fi refi ght-ers took turns entering and being rescued from a hole cut in the 10-12” ice. The training exercise took place in 9®F. “The conditions were real. We trained at night with low light con-ditions,” said EHOVE Fire Training Coordinator Jamie Starcher.
“The training went very well,” said Starcher, noting that several area fi refi ghters trained on the rescue, with many from Huron River Joint Fire District
and Milan Township Fire District receiving continuing education credits. More photos from the training are on EHOVE’s Adult
Ed Facebook page at www.facebook.com/EHOVEadultED.
EHOVE Career Center Board of Educa-tion President Dr. Paul Lockwood joined more than 800 school board and state school boards association leaders to ask Con-gress to support pub-lic school students as they consider the re-authorization of the Elementary and Sec-ondary Education Act (ESEA) this year.
Dr. Lockwood took part in the National School Boards Asso-ciation’s (NSBA) 38th annual Federal Rela-tions Network Conference, held February 6-8 in Washington D.C. The Network is a national grassroots legislative effort that
urges members of Congress to make K-12 education a top priority.
Once Congress reauthorizes ESEA, local school boards will be responsible for imple-menting the federal policies, so it is impor-tant that school board leaders are involved in the legislative process.
School funding also remains a major concern for local districts. School board leaders are requesting that Congress help ensure that public education is adequately funded and discontinue the practice of passing education legislation without pro-viding the necessary funding for local im-plementation. Some members of Congress are pushing for alternatives to local school governance. School board leaders strongly believe that schools are best governed by the communities they serve.

Sports
The 2010-2011 Women’s basketball sea-son came to an unceremonious close last week on the fl oor of Fremont Ross high school. Huron fell in the fi rst round of the State tournament to the 14-7 Woodmore Wildcats, 51-40. The Tigers fi nish the season with four wins to seventeen losses.
The Wildcats took imme-diate charge of the game with an 8-2 run and held Huron to just 2 of 15 from the fi eld in the opening quarter. At the end of the fi rst eight minutes, the Ti-gers trailed 18-5. The two teams played evenly during the second period, 11-11, with senior Devon Koenig and sophomore Brittany Mayer leading the Tiger offense. The Huron press wasn’t able to create turn-overs and the Tigers tried to make up for it by play-ing aggressively. This led to a disproportionate number of fouls against Huron, 10-3.
At the half, the Wildcats maintained their 13 point lead, 29-16.
Otherwise quiet most of the night, Lauren Volz hit the opening shot of the sec-ond half. Then, Woodmore went on a 7-2 run to open up a 36-20 lead. Huron trailed by 17 going into the fi nal quarter. Even though the game was out of reach, the Tigers played hard until the end, outscor-ing the Wildcats 14-8 in the fi nal period of the season. Koening had ten points in the
fourth to pull her team to within eleven points when the fi nal buzzer blew.
The game was somewhat of a coming out
party for sophomore Brittany Mayer who fi nished with 10 points. Keoning led Huron with 17 points while Volz struggled with her and ended with only eight.
Two weekends ago Huron High School hosted the area’s Sectional tournament, the fi rst step in a tough journey to compete at the State Championship level. The list of those who qualifi ed for districts from Huron included: 135lb Spencer Maddox - 3rd place, 145lb Dominic Maschari - 3rd place, 152lb Matt King - 2nd place, 189lb Jordan Romick - 3rd, Rory Kaip - 4th, 285lb Nino Ma-joy - 1st was Huron’s sole sectional champion. Mauri-cio Vazquez (171lb) fi nished in 5th and will be a District Alternate. As a team, the Ti-gers fi nished in sixth place.
“We were happy with who we got out. I was hoping two more might qualify, but overall we are happy,” said head varsity coach Rob Ma-joy.
Also of note, the Edison Chargers won the overall team sectional title. The three defending state cham-pions from Monroeville, Hunter Stieber (135), Cam Tessari (140), and Chris Phillips (171) had little trouble making their way through the Huron Sec-tional.
All competed this past weekend at the Division III Northwest District tour-nament held at Owens Community College. For the second year in a row, Huron was represented by senior Matt King, who fi n-ished fourth, and junior Nino Majoy who fi nished second in the heavy weight class. King was beaten in a 14-6 decision to Tyler Yant (Delta) while Majoy fell to Mimmo Lytle (Swanton) during the fi nals.
Edison again, took the top
honors at District and will send six to state. Meanwhile, all three of the Monroeville wrestlers had little trouble qualifying for their fourth straight trip to Columbus this upcoming weekend.
Huron’s varsity basketball team have come a long way this season. After watch-ing early games with Norwalk St. Paul, Ver-milion, Perkins, among others, it is quite remarkable that the Tigers now sport a 13-7 record and fi nished in third in the SBC. In their fi nal game against the already crowned SBC champion Edison Char-gers, some wouldn’t blame the kids from Milan if they came out fl at.
But those same people have to remember that Hu-ron really had nothing to play for either, other than pride. Third place in the conference was locked up as was their state tourney seed-ing and opponents (Wood-more, then Margaretta). This was a game that could be seen as a measuring stick for how far ‘the kids’ had come this year.
It was also a game to say goodbye to a senior, in Bri-an Bollenbacher (recently picked 1st team All-Dis-trict), who had played his heart out all season. During the fi rst half of the year, he seemed to carry the team on his shoulders. Now, it wasn’t all just him. It was the fi nal home game, Senior night, and the cheerleaders also said farewell to their ever smiling, toothy captain Mackenzie Davis.
But the Tiger team looks different now and are on a roll going into the Norwalk sectional this week. In this fi nal tune-up, where Coach James said his number goal was to get out of the Edison game still healthy, ‘the kids’ took care of the ball. Huron only committed 13 turnovers all afternoon. The Chargers came out fl at and the Tigers pounced.
Bollenbacher opened on fi re hitting eight of Huron’s fi rst twelve points during the fi rst period. The Chargers trailed 12-8 go-ing into the second period. Edison seemed to have successfully slowed the pace of the game down. This was something the Ti-gers have struggled with, but because they took care of the ball, it didn’t matter. Plus, Huron was playing a tough zone defense despite the superior inside presence of the Chargers.
Following a spectacular give and go play between Kyle Pisano and Aaron Casey that gave Huron a 20-14 lead with 4:14 left in the fi rst half, Edison called time. The Char-gers immediately went into their half court offense and nailed a wide open three. But instead of folding, the Tigers closed out the half on a 9-2 run, capped off by a Bollen-
bacher trey, that gave them a 29-19 lead. The third period began with Edison scor-
ing the fi rst four points forcing James to call time out. Sophomores Jake Justus and
Aaron Casey quickly responded, along with another Bollenbacher three, and allowed Huron to once again regain control. The quarter ended with the Tigers still up 36-28.
To this point, Huron had shot not a single free throw all afternoon. But the fi nal pe-riod changed all that as a desperate Charger squad battled to get back into the game.
Huron struggled a bit while they tried to run out clock in their four corner offense. Again, mostly inexperienced mistakes that turn into valuable lessons later. But when it mattered most, the Tigers would take 13 shots from the charity stripe and would hit 11 of them to put the game away and give Edison only their third lose of the season.
It was nice moment when, with :29 left in the game, Brian Bollenbacher came off the fl oor. Having scored 20 points and gathered in 8 boards, the captain received a stand-ing ovation with high fi ves and hugs from his teammates. Casey led the Tigers with 10 rebounds while he and Kyle Pisano put in eight points a piece.
