BETHEL — This November,Tate Township voters will beasked to paymore taxes to sup-port fireand lifesquadservice.

Trustees have agreed toplaceanadditional1.5-millcon-tinuing levy on the Nov. 4 gen-eral election ballot for fire andEMSservice. It’s been23yearssince Tate Township officialslast sought an additional levyto support fire service.

“Since then, costs havegoneup and income’s gone down,”said Rick Stowell, chief of theBethel-Tate Fire Department

serving about10,000 residents.If the levy passes, the town-

ship would start receiving theadditional revenues next July,township officials say.

At the time voters approvedthe last additional levy, the Be-thel-TateFireDepartmentpro-vided fire service only. Sincethen, the department has takenover ambulance service afteran independent group offeringEMS service went out of busi-ness.

“We’re running two para-medic ambulances 24 hours aday and all the fire units,” Sto-well said. “Weneed this levy sothat we don’t have to cut staff-

ing and reduce the level of ser-vice.”

Maintaining current staff-ing of 12 full-time firefighter/paramedics and 38 part-timefirefighter EMTs and para-medicswill ensure that the firedepartment keeps its responsetimeswithinNational FirePro-tection Association Standards,Stowell said. Those standardsalso require fire departmentsto keep their equipment up todate.

“This year alone, we have toreplace20setsofgearat$2,000apiece,” Stowell said. “That’s

NEW RICHMOND — Acitizens group calling it-self River Rats on At-tack hopes to tackle thecommunity’s heroinproblem by joiningforces with local policeand the Ohio attorneygeneral’s office.

Last month, morethan 60 “river rats” ral-liedat thevillage’sband-stand just weeks afterNew Richmond’s policechief turned to themedia to express hisfrustration in dealingwith the heroin epidem-ic.OnAug.18, policeandcommunity leaders alsowere to hold their sec-ond meeting in about amonth with representa-tives of the state attor-ney general’s office todiscuss how to help her-oin addicts find afford-able help and the bestways of dealing withdrug traffickers.

“This problem didn’tarise overnight and it’snothing that we’ll repairovernight, but we wantto get our neighbor-hoods cleaned up,” saidShirlene Martin, one ofthe organizers of theRiver Rats group.“We’re here to supportChiefHarveyand theat-torney general 100 per-cent.”

Although River Ratson Attack is not affiliat-ed with the village, NewRichmond Police ChiefRandy Harvey said hegot involved to ensurethat “everyone’s on thesame page” when it

comes to addressing lo-cal heroin issues.

Harvey said he hasbeen working closelywith representatives oftheOhioattorneygener-al’s office who serve asliaisons to smaller com-munities when it comesto helping officials fightheroin addiction. At theattorney general’s re-quest, the police chiefidentified local stake-holders, including busi-ness people, residents

and representatives ofthe faith-based commu-nity, and invited them tomeet with local policeand the attorney gener-al’s staff to talk abouthowtoapproachtheher-oin issue.

“For a small town, Ithinkwehavemore thanthe usual amount ofdrug overdoses,” Har-vey said of the village of3,000. “We probablyhave one overdose atleast every couple of

weeks, usually heroin.”The police chief said

most of the local peoplewho are struggling withheroin addiction are 25-to 45-years-old. Hethinks recent crack-downs on heroin traf-fickers in Cincinnatihave sent them east toNew Richmond. At a re-cent symposium withthe attorney general’soffice, Harvey said helearned that the topcounties in Ohio for her-

oin addiction were But-ler, Warren and Cler-mont.

After the Aug. 18meeting, New Rich-mond’s police chief saidhe expects that a steer-ing committee will beformed to start address-ing recommendationsfrom the attorney gen-eral’s office.

“When I becamechief five years ago,from Day One, when Iwent out to meet andgreet business people,all I heard was, ‘Whatare you going to do toclean up this town?’’’Harvey said. “But thisisn’t just a law enforce-ment problem. It’s acommunity problem.”

Batavia Village Coun-cil is getting closer to anagreement with the Val-leyViewFoundation to re-move a low-head dam onthe East Fork of the LittleMiami River.

The village owns theland surrounding the damand needs to transfer theproperty, said Andy Dick-erson, vice president ofthe Valley View Founda-tion, a conservation groupthat manages a naturepreserve and educationcenter in Milford.

“We’re going to belooking for a (property)transfer to move liabilityover tous toget startedonthe project,” he said.

Thedam’s removal hadbeenpostponedsince2012because Batavia did notwant to assume any liabil-ity from the project, ei-ther inthe immediatedamarea, just south of theWest Main Street bridge,or in the watershed.

Recently the ValleyView Foundation agreedto take over the dam re-moval project with theClermont County Soil andWater Conservation Dis-trict and assume some li-abilities.

Councilwoman Eliza-beth Mason said certainconcerns need to still beaddressed before the vil-lage transfers the proper-ty.

“The group’s concernwas that any damage tothe property along thestream, for some dis-tance, was the village’s(responsibility),” shesaid. “We need to havethat answered clearly –does the liability then goto the new owner or re-main with us as a munici-pality?”

Dickerson said theFoundation would accepta federal grant and takeownership to get the pro-ject done, but both Bata-via’s and the Foundation’slegal counsel will have toreview specifics.

A $700,000 grant fromthe Ohio EnvironmentalProtection Agency wouldpay for the project, andmuch of this year will beplanning and engineeringfor the dam removal.

Council is expected todiscuss this issue again atthe next meeting, sched-uled for 7 p.m. Monday,Sept. 8. It was pushedback a week because ofLabor Day.

Other public meetingsare planned to answerquestions about the pro-ject and to decide whattype of trees or other veg-etation will be plantedalong the river.

The dam and a pumphouse were built near theMain Street bridge in the1940s to provide the vil-lage with a water supply,but neither are still used.

After going 5-13 (2-8 inthe Southern BuckeyeConference-AmericanDi-vision) second-year coachRonShookwill compete inthe National Division thisfall. He figures his topcompetition will be Cler-mont Northeastern andBlanchester. Movingfrom National to Ameri-can will be Batavia.

“What’s going to helpus is playing schools oursize,” Shook said. “We’renot going to have to playthe Amelias, New Rich-monds and Norwoodstwice.We’ll play the othersmall schools twice.”

The Lady Tigers re-turnseniorsMichelleCor-nelius, Morgan Walters,Kaitlynn Perkins and Ju-lia Weber. Top juniors areAlyssaDemaris andKylieDunaway.

Shook expects Corne-lius and Demaris to leadthe team in scoring upfront.

“It’s taken a year to fi-nally get an attack-mind-ed mode instead of run-ning back and trying tokeep the other team fromscoring,” Shook said. “Weneed to try and attack.You can’t win games 0-0.”

Seniors Cornelius andPerkins participated in apreseason showcase tour-nament all-star game inMason recently. Shookwill be looking for leadersto replace last year’s vet-

erans butwill also featuresome young talent.

“We’re going to be de-pending on juniors andsophomores both,” Shooksaid. “HaleyTaylor,HaleyFoster and Sam Gardnerare all good sophomoresthat will contribute.”

Taylor is one of thebusier girls as she alsoruns for hermother, Pam,onthecrosscountryteam.

“If we stay healthy, weshould have a chance tochallenge for the leaguetitle,” Shook said. “Wehadfourgoalkeepers injured -two knees, a concussionand a finger - at the sametime last year. It’s reallytough to win games withyour No. 5 goalkeeper.”

Bethel-Tate’s homeopener is against George-town Aug. 26 at 7 p.m.

They visit Felicity-Frank-lin Aug. 28.

The Felicity-FranklinLady Cardinals had a dif-ficult 1-13-2 season a yearago.

They do return juniorBaylie Wilson who madethe SBC-National secondteam last fall.

Felicity-Franklin be-gins the 2014 slate withthree straight homegames; Aug. 21 against St.Bernard, Aug. 26 withBlanchester and Aug. 28with Bethel-Tate.

McNicholas HighSchoolwas14-4-2 (6-1andfirst place in the GirlsGreater Catholic LeagueCoedCentral) under first-year head coach BenKirkpatrick. And despitegraduating eight playersfrom that team, Kirkpat-

rick looks forward to astrong sophomore season.

Senior Lauren Rice an-chors the defense in thegoal. SeniorMeghanMar-tella and sophomoreSophie Gorman bothearned first team all-GGCL honors last seasonand return in the centermidfield.

Junior Emma Heise atforward and and class-mate Lauren Pearson atcenter back and centermidfield should be keyneweditions to thevarsitylineup.

Aug. 14 questionDo you think there is too

much, or not enough, govern-ment involvement in schools?Where do you see it?

“Don’t you think there is fartoo much government involve-ment in our schools? I certainlydo. Local school boards, localschool management teams, lo-cal teachers and most impor-tantly local parents (OKmost ofthem, not all) know best what isneeded in our local schools solet’s eliminate all federal inter-vention and a lot of the state in-tervention too.Whilewe’re at it,let’s eliminate the tenure sys-tem, but that’s anotherwhole is-sue.

“NoStudent LeftBehindwas

and remains one of the most ill-conceived programs forschools and has gravely injuredthe overall level and quality ofactual educating in our schools.Due to the gross over-reach ofgovernment involvement, ourteachers spend far too muchtime ‘teaching to the test’ rather

than teaching our kids how tolearn and more importantly,how to have a desire to questionand learn.

“Michelle Obama’s attemptto force healthy foods in schoollunches has increased theamount of wasted food becausekids simply won’t eat it andsome school systems are pass-ing on the federal money pro-vided for food programs be-cause of it.Get out, governmentinterference in our schools! Wedon’t need you.”

M.J.F.

“I think Common Coreshould answer that question.”

Dave D.

“I just have one thing to say.

Where in our Constitution doesit say thatourgovernment isau-thorized tomeddle in or pay foreducation?”

R.D.

“Once again the governmentis out of control.”

V.H.

“I do not think there is toomuch government involvementin schools. However I wouldprefer more government mon-ey and less overlap (overhead).We have federal, state and localschool district involvement.The use of property tax fundingfor school levies was first ruledunconstitutional by the OhioState’s Supreme Court over 15years ago. Levies are failing ev-

erywhere in Ohio. Yet no alter-native has been put in place. Gofigure!”

Aug. 7 questionWhat are your favorite desti-

nations at The Banks? Howoften,if at all, do you visit The Banks?Whatwouldyou like tosee there?

“My favorite destinations atThe Banks are Mahogany’s,Crave, Orange Leaf and YardHouse. I visitTheBanksat leasttwice amonth. I wish there wasa movie theater.”

All the retold Lincoln rousein the Community Press is amassive folly to the local andstate histories.

Why is Lin-coln heraldedso openly in apredicated pe-riod as ourown?There is alittle knownAmerican fig-ure that betterexemplifiespertinent atti-tude and de-serves histori-cal recognition

in the paper.James Polk was not a busi-

nessman. Upon graduatingfrom public education, he pre-ferred clerk duties much more

than being an attorney in thesense Lincoln as one. Despitethis seemingly demure bio,President Polk accomplishedmore thanLincoln,Kennedy,Ei-senhower, Truman, Jefferson,T. Roosevelt, Wilson, Taft andBill Clinton.

Young Polkwas admitted forthe sophomore class at the Uni-versity of North Carolina,where he graduated with firsthonors in the classics andmath-ematics in 1818.

He then studied law underTennessee’s leading lawyer. InCongress, he supported freepublic education, bi-metal mon-ey and a Constitutional amend-ment granting the Americanpeople the right to elect theirresidents by a direct popularvote.

Attacked by detractors as a“menial” and “slave” toAndrewJackson, Polk resigned fromCongress in 1839 to strategical-ly become Tennessee’s gover-nor, and re-energize the faithfulyet beleaguered state Demo-cratic base. He successfully be-came president in 1845 withoutcarrying either North CarolinaorTennessee,his“homestates.”

Polk’s eclectic résumé wasan asset at a pivotal Americanpoint: he sympathized with thepolicies of Madison, Monroeand Jackson rather than pre-vailing notions.

Polk was labeled “YoungHickory,” although he was lessJacksonian and more indepen-dent than what he is portrayed.Polk maximized diplomacy toavoid war with Britain.

When Mexico almost fell toFrench guardianship, Polk in-voked the Monroe Doctrineagain, making that articulationthe bedrock of democratic for-eign relationships for anothercentury.

He reintroduced the strongIndependent Treasury Systemthat lasted until 1913, and he ve-toed unsavory propositions hedeemed at odds with “the vir-tue” of America that would besimilar to corporate welfare,coastal favoritism, and anti-democratic tendencies reapedfrom flagrant neoconservativeemotionalism today. The PolkAdministration integrated theOregon country, California andTexas.

A great lover and championof the environment, Polk used

his power to ensure the farreaching expanses of the nationwere fertile and virile with flo-ra. Polk’s team alertly initiatedthe maiden Department of theInterior. He returned home be-fore dying three months afterleaving office.

Polk was an excellent orator.A former Speaker of theU.S.

House of Representatives, Polkmade it known he had little tol-erance for Congressional hold-ups. In his only four-year term,JamesPolktranscendedthedis-cord and noise of the day fortu-nately andnaturally, and is a de-serving American favorite.

With the 2015 Major LeagueBaseball All-Star Game comingtoCincinnati, focuswill beon itsrich baseball history. One canseewhereprofessionalbaseballstarted and how it was played.

Union Grounds nearUnion Terminal

As most local baseball fansknow, Cincin-nati is wherethe first openlyall professionalbaseball team

was formed. Starting in 1869,they won all 57 games, and con-tinued the long runof 81consec-utive victories before losing tothe Brooklyn Atlantics on theroad.

On the grounds ofUnionTer-minal is a marker stating thatthe area is where the 1869 RedStockings first played. It is lo-cated across from the northparking lot, at the bottom of thefountain. Union Grounds stoodthere and the first game therewas in 1867. Following the 1869season at Union grounds, theReds played one more seasonthere before the team disband-ed in 1870 and the stands andfence were disbanded and soldas scrap.

Vintage Base BallYou can see baseball how it

used to be played at a local vin-tage base ball game. Vintagebase ball is played by the rulesthat existed in baseball’s earlyyears, such as in 1860 or 1869.

One of the most obvious dif-

ferences is that the playersdon’t wear gloves, which is howthey played until themid-1880s.The teams try to be as histori-cally accurate as possible, bywearing period reproduction

Highlanders. The Red Stock-ings, who play the game asfaithfully as possible to 1869rules and customs, and Buck-eyes use Sharon Woods as theirhome field. Vintage base ballteams are also in Dayton andColumbus.

There is an annual tourna-ment in Columbus called theOhio Cup that is held in Augustor September that draws vin-tage teams from all over thecountry. There was also a vin-tage base ball festival in June attheir home field, Heritage Vil-lage in Sharon Woods HamiltonCounty Park. Vintage base ballcan be seen locally until Octo-ber and their websites havetheir schedules.

uniforms and using old-styleequipment. The bats are a littleheavier than today bats. Thereare differences in the rulesfrom today’s game. A runnercannot overrun first base. Someteamsplaywith theold rule thatsuccessfully fielding a battedball on the first bounce is anout.Until 1865, fair, or foul, ballscaughtononebouncewereouts.

Also noticeable at the gamesis the baseball chatter and ter-minology. The players will saystriker instead of batter andmuff rather than error. At thebeginning of the contest theplayers will be introduced,probably with curious nick-names, and at the conclusion ofthe contest both teams willthank the other for a challeng-ing contest followed by threehat-tipped “Huzzah!s”

BUILDING PERMITS

If you could see myherb garden and countthe number of varietiesof basil, you’d need morethan 10 fingers. I lovethem all, but when itcomes to making pesto, I

use thesweetgreen,commonbasil or itscousin,Genovese.

This isthe time ofyear tomake pes-to, whenbasil is

abundant. The recipeI’m sharing is a thickerpesto meant to freezewell and is the one I’vebeen getting requestsfor. The question I getasked most is if nuts areessential. No, and wal-nuts make a good sub-stitute for pine nuts. Ihave a reader whomakes it with almonds,as well. Should you addgarlic before freezing? Iadd both nuts and garlicto my pesto prior tofreezing, but some foodexperts leave them outsince, in their opinion,these items turn strongin the freezer. They addthem to the thawed pes-to.

I use my food proces-sor, but you could use ablender or make this byhand. Add more oil afterthawing, if you like. Adda little water when usingit to coat pasta.

Rita’s freezer pesto1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons

garlic, minced1/4 cup pine nuts,

toasted if desired1/2 stick unsalted

butter (optional butgood)

Generous handfulparsley leaves

4 generous cups basilleaves, packed

1-1/4 cups Parmesancheese or to taste

1/4 cup Romanocheese

1/2 to 3/4 cup extravirgin olive oil

Generous squeeze oflemon juice

With processor’s mo-tor running, add garlic

and nuts. Add every-thing else and using thepulse button, pulse untiljust mixed, then pourinto containers andfreeze.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Why does my pestoturn dark?

Sometimes the toplayer of my pesto turns abit dark in the freezer.That doesn’t bother me,but here are some ideasthat may alleviate theproblem. I’ve tried themall and sometimes theywork, and sometimesthey don’t. But the dark-er color is only on thetop and doesn’t affectquality or taste.

» Basil oxidizes/turnsdark rapidly whenleaves are cut up eithertoo finely and/or ex-posed to air, so use thepulse button to mix. Thatalso alleviates heatwhile processing, whichcan turn the basil dark.

» Blanch the basilleaves to keep themgreen.

» Add parsley andlemon juice to keep thegreen color.

» Pouring a thin filmof oil over the top beforestoring may keep air out.

Health benefits ofbasil:

Besides containingiron, calcium and vita-min A, this member ofthe mint family alsocontains nutrients thatimprove blood flow andhelp stop cholesterolfrom oxidizing in theblood stream. A basilsteam facial is cleansingand calming.

Fruited gluten freebaked oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is thenewest trend for break-fast, or really any meal.

Reader Michelle fromWhite Oak shared thiswhich she tore out of anewspaper in the doc-tor’s office. I told hershe’s not alone. I have toadmit that I’ve guiltilyand hopefully secretlydone that myself. Here’smy adaptation.

1 cup oats, old fash-ioned or quick oats

1/2 cup chopped nuts1/2 teaspoon baking

powder1 teaspoon cinnamon1/4 cup pure maple

syrup1 cup 2% milk2 tablespoons butter

or substitute, melted1 egg1 teaspoon vanillaEnough ripe banana

slices to fill bottom ofpan - 2 or 3 bananas

1 cup sliced berriesPreheat oven to 375.

Spray a 2 quart bakingpan. Mix together oats,half the nuts, bakingpowder and cinnamon.Whisk syrup, milk, but-ter, egg and vanilla.Layer bottom of panwith sliced bananas. Topwith oat mixture andhalf the berries. Pourmaple syrup mixtureover. Top with rest ofberries and nuts. Bake30-40 minutes. Coolslightly before serving.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Not sure if your pan is2 quarts?

A 2-quart pan is8x8x2” and holds 8 cups;a three-quart pan is9x13” and holds 12 cups.

Delta Air Lines ischanging its SkyMilesProgram beginning Jan.1, and whether you’ll likethe changes depends onthe length of the tripsyou take.

Delta will beginawarding SkyMilesbased on the cost of theairline ticket and thefare-class rather than thedistance flown. Medal-lion members will earnmore miles per dollarthan General Members,who will get five milesper dollar paid.

Silver Medallion mem-bers get seven miles perdollar paid, Gold getseight miles, Platinumgets nine miles and Dia-mond gets 11miles. Deltaco-branded Amex creditcards still earn two milesper dollar spent.

So, if you’re flyingfrom Cincinnati, onceagain ranked as havingthe highest airline ticket

pricesamong thenation’s100 largestairports,those high-er fareswill getyou moreSkyMileson shorterflights.

For instance, flights toFt. Lauderdale currentlyget you 1,864 SkyMilesroundtrip, while the newprogramwill give you1,980 SkyMiles based ona $396 ticket price. A$430 dollar ticket to La-Guardia Airport in NewYork City will currentlyget you 1,170 SkyMilesand that figure jumps to2,150 under the new pro-gram.

However, long-haulflights are an entirelydifferent story. Fly fromCvg to Los Angeles nowfor $404 and you’ll get

3,800 SkyMiles-- but thenew program only givesyou 2,020 SkyMiles. A$416 non-stop ticket toLas Vegas currentlygives you 3,356 SkyMileswhile the new programgives you just 2,080 Sky-Miles.

While Delta says it’slowering the miles re-quired for a frequentflyer ticket, the economyclass 25,000 mile ticketwon’t change. But, therewill be more mileagelevels added to an econo-my class domestic ticket.It can cost you 25,000,35,000, 40,000, 50,000 or65,000 points. SkyMilespoints needed for someoverseas award ticketswill see the points re-quired for some levels godown a little.

One thing that isn’tchanging is the way youearn those all-importantMedallion Miles. Thatwill still be based on the

distance flown. So, themore miles you fly, thehigher Medallion rankingyou’ll get – and can thenearn more miles perdollar paid under the newprogram.

Another change in theprogram allows you topay miles and cash for anairline ticket. If, for in-stance, you don’t have35,000 points to pay for aticket, you can pay 25,000points plus $159. Thatway you’re paying $159dollars for 10,000 points,which equals $1.59 cents

each.Delta will also allow

you to buy one-wayaward tickets starting at12,500 miles for domestictravel and Canada. That’shalf the miles requiredfor a 25,000 mile econo-my class ticket.

Under the new plan,Delta says more awardseats will be available atthe lowest redemptionlevels – and you’ll be ableto use a new award calen-dar to search dates forthe lowest award ticketsavailable.

Bottom line, Deltapassengers will lose outon collecting SkyMiles onlong-haul flights, butCincinnati passengerswill finally get someadditional compensationfor short-haul flightswith the highest fares inthe nation.

Howdy Folks,Last Tuesday was a

very busy day for us. Imowed eight acres ofgrass and Ruth Ann putmore zucchini in thefreezer. She now has14packs in the freezer, tomake zucchini bread andzucchini rounds this win-ter, they are so good. Thegarden is doing so good.She also finished twoloads of laundry while Iwasmowing.

For dinner that day shemade zucchini rounds andfried green tomatoes.Later I was working in thegarden pulling weeds -they never quit growingnomatter how dry it gets.The cranberry beans(that’s a shell bean) aredone. We got five packs ofthem off an eight-foot bed.We like them along withcorn bread and an onion.Now a good cup of hercoffee doesn’t go badeither, she is such a goodcook.

I always write thisarticle on Tuesdaymorn-ing then Ruth Ann sends itto the papers that day. Ialways enjoy doing this.

When I wasmowingthe yard last week I sawthe first katydid. They saywhen you hear a katydid,it will be six weeks till thefirst frost.

I have been havingsome back problems sowewent to Dr. Sipple herein Bethel. While wewerewaiting there was amaga-zine called “Country” Iwas looking at. There wasa story about folks thatgot a house from Sears orMontgomeryWard. Thesehouses were pre-cut and

markedready forbuilding.There areone or twoin Bethel.

Thelumber wascut in theAladdinFactory inBay City,

Michigan. This was agreat deal back in thattime for folks. That maga-zine is a good one. I thinkwewill get it, there are somany short stories in itthat I can associate with.So look for it, I am sureyou would enjoy it.

The Bethel Lions Clubmet last Thursdaymorn-ing at the Bick PrimarySchool to put the bookbacks together. Then thechildren came and gotone. It is always an excit-ing time to watch eachchild try to decide whichbag and color they want.When there is a workproject themembers ofthe Lions Club alwaysturn out.

The next day Ruth Annand I went to the OVAMmachinery show atGeorgetown to work atthe gate. Ruth Annworked inside the officeselling tickets and Iworked outside collectingthem. On Fridaymorningwewere there at 7:30 a.m.to work at the gate bothoutside for two hours. Wegot to see some greatfolks and sure enjoyed thetime spent there.

The OVAM is a greatevent it teaches the youngfolks how it was in theearly times and the saw-

mill is sure busy with thesawyers that operate themill. The folks that aredirectors are so helpful.An elderly feller and hiswife needed a ride back totheir vehicle so a youngfellow got one of the vehi-cles and took them to theircar. While this was takingplace a couple asked ifthere was a way to getsomething they had pur-chased taken to theirtruck so again they tookthese folks and their itemsto their truck.

Now asmy friendalways said, “I tella you”the folks that are the di-rectors of this organiza-tion are some of themosthelpful folks we ever saw.Ruth Ann and I are sothankful to be associatedwith them. It was a goodshowwith the interna-tional tractors there alongwith all the other tractorsand equipment and lots offolks.

The Boars Head BaitShop in Afton Sept. 13 willhave a benefit for Autism.It will start at noon and gotill dark. There will bemusic, games, a fish fryand lots more somarkyour calendar for thisevent. Mike is alwaysdoing something for thecommunity.

Start your week bygoing to the House ofWorship of your choiceand praise the Good Lord.God Bless All. More later.

It’s true. Regular oil changes, tune-ups and maintenance can help improve your vehicle’s performance and gasmileage, extend its life and increase its resale value. It can also help reduce traffic congestion due to preventablebreakdowns. But possibly most important of all, taking good care of your car could help reduce emissions bymore than half. And that should make you breathe a lot easier between oil changes. So keep it up because…
