Recognizing Developmental Disabilities Month By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY — Numerous individuals were in attendance for the Meigs County Commissioner meeting last week as the board recognized Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. Each March is recognized in Ohio as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. Ohio’s county board of developmental disabilities were established by the Ohio General Assembly on October 25, 1967. The proclamation stated in part: The mission and purpose of Ohio’s county boards of DD remains as strong as ever, with county boards continuing to provide vital supports and resources for Ohioans with developmental disabilities and their families. People with developmental disabilities served by the Meigs County Board of Developmental Disabilities, their families, friends, neighbors, and co-workers encourage everyone to focus on the abilities of all people. The most effective way to increase this awareness is through everyone’s active participation in community activities and the openness to learn and acknowledge each individual’s contributions. Policies must be developed, attitudes shaped, and opportunities offered that allow people with developmental disabilities to live as independently and productively as possible in our community We encourage all citizens to foster and support such opportunities that include full access to education, housing, employment, and recreational activities. The Meigs County Commissioners do hereby proclaim March 2019 as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month and offer full support to efforts that assist people with disabilities to make choices that enable them to live successful live and to realize their potential. We urge all citizens to join in their celebration by spreading awareness of the many contributions offered by people with developmental disabilities in our community.

The board approved the IV-D contracts between the Meigs County Department of Job and Family Services and the Prosecutor’s Ofﬁce, Clerk of Courts and Juvenile Court for child support cases. A contract for jail housing was approved with Morrow County at a rate of $60 per day for each prisoner. The commissioners approved to certify and appropriate $71,475.98 for the county engineer’s ofﬁce in FEMA grant funds.

Families are offered authentic, academically oriented ways of being involved in the Melissa school without themselves needing Martin to be highly proﬁcient in English or Contributing numerous academic subjects.” www. columnist readingrockets.org/. Every family has a book full of stories. Account of births and deaths and the colorful happenings in-between. Each generation is unique. Tales are photographs made up of word pictures. Of course, some yarns are embellished or exaggerated. And some stories are full of laughter while others are full of tears. We reach back into our memories and relive the times of the past. Family history is embossed in our DNA. Recently, my aunt Judy told me a story about the time Lydia, my grandmother, square danced for Rosalynn Carter. I guess the Carters visited Portsmouth, Ohio, during their campaign for the presidency. Lydia bowed and kissed the hand of Rosalynn after the dance ended—and the lady from Georgia bestowed a glowing compliment upon the pioneer woman from Appalachia. And who can forget our witty and wacky relative, “Uncle Beanie.” He bought, sold, and traded antiques in Scioto County and beyond. As a kid, I was mesmerized by his house full of goodies. It looked like a store of treasures. And that man could play a tune on the piano! Without taking any piano lessons, he learned to tickle the ivories by ear. His sister, Joyce lived next door. She wore red lipstick and sparkly jewelry. My cousin Kim and I adored Joyce and thought she must have been a former movie star. My grandmother Hila was the queen of the garden. She plowed, planted, and produced veggies ﬁt for royalty. Her ﬁngers picked, snapped, and cooked the best green beans in southern Ohio. Snuggling under my grandmother’s homemade quilts on a cold winter’s night and examining the different pieces of fabric in the warm daylight are fond memories of yesteryear. Patchwork quilts lay at the foot of every bed. She used remnants and scraps of fabric from old clothes and sheets for quilt pieces. Every homemade quilt told a story. Instead of ink and words, the fabric’s color, texture, quality, pattern, style, and stitching give an account of why, what, where, when, and how. Hila hailed from the backwoods of Kentucky. In her book, “Appalachian Elegy”, Bell Hooks wrote of life’s harsh realities in a collection of poems inspired by her childhood in the isolated hills and hidden hollows of Kentucky. History lives on when our words are written in a book. Storytelling in Appalachia is as old as the mountains. Rural folks gathered together around wood stoves, front porches, hunting campﬁres, church steps, garden fences, barn dances, quilting circles, general stores, and anywhere country people congregated to hear stories. Spoken stories served the purpose of informing, entertaining, educating, sharing, and passing down beliefs, values, and ideas. “Family stories are tales about people, places, and events related to the members of our immediate family or their ancestors. Family stories casually chatted about at the dinner table, or regaled again and again at family gatherings can parallel great epics or notable short stories. The memorable stories of our lives and of others in our family take on special importance because they are true, even if everyone tells different versions of the same event. These tales are family heirlooms held in the heart not the hand. They are a gift to each generation that preserves them by remembering them and passing them on.” www.storyarts.org/.

Now every so often I seem to shake thoughts of my sister June out of this and that. So there I was making the bed with clean sheets.

The Point Pleasant baseball team had four pitchers combine on its ﬁrst shutout of the season Saturday afternoon during a 10-0 victory over host Wayne in a non-conference matchup at Appalachian Power Park in Kanawha County. The visiting Big Blacks (5-0) had four different multi-run frames at the plate, including a threerun top of the ﬁrst that ultimately provided all the offense needed in the six-inning mercy-rule decision. A pair of walks and a two-out error allowed Joel Beattie to reach safely while knocking in Carter Smith and Miles Williams, then Kyelar Morrow singled Beattie home for a quick three-run cushion. Williams used that early lead to shut down the Pioneers as the senior starter allowed just one hit and one walk over three scoreless innings while striking out four. Williams also ended up being the winning pitcher of record. Sam Pinkerton, Smith and Brody Jeffers also worked an inning of relief apiece, with Pinkerton and Smith each allowing a single hit. Smith also struck out two batters in the bottom of the ﬁfth. The Big Blacks tacked on two more runs in the third as a Williams single turned into a 4-0 edge following a double from Jeffers. Jeffers advanced to third on a wild pitch and came home on a sacriﬁce ﬂy to center by Beattie. Point used three singles, a walk and a hit batter to extend its lead out to 8-0 after plating three runs in the fourth, then beneﬁted from three WHS errors in the sixth to score twice while extending the lead to double digits. PPHS outhit the hosts by a sizable 9-3 overall margin and also committed only two of the six errors in the contest. Point stranded seven runners on base, while Wayne left ﬁve on the bags. Jeffers led Point Pleasant with two hits, with Williams, Morrow, Pinkerton, Hunter Blain, Joe Herdman, Josh Wamsley and Colton Fridley also producing a hit apiece in the triumph. Jeffers and Morrow each drove in two RBIs, while Blain, Beattie, Wamsley and Hunter Bush also accounted for a RBI apiece. Williams and Jeffers each scored twice. Blain, Smith, Pinkerton, Wamsley, Cason Payne and Wyatt Wilson also crossed home plate one time apiece. Brayden Queen took the loss for Wayne after surrendering eight runs (ﬁve earned), six hits and two walks over three innings while striking out two. Chase Jackson, Cam Cade and Kolby Stiltner each had one hit for the Pioneers.
