POMEROY — “I didn’t know I
had so many friends,” said Steve Van
Meter about the overwhelming turnout of people at the recent open house
to honor the transplant recipient.
The event was organized by Bette
Hackett and Mary Gilmore, both of
whom graduated with Van Meter in
the Meigs High School Class of 1970.
“We had over 100 people in attendance, and Donate Life Ohio provided
informational material along with
some promotional items,” said Gilmore of the event.
“I love it when a community comes

POMEROY — Pomeroy’s Parks and Recreation Committee met this
week to discuss festival
management and the
future of the Mechanic
Street Park.
Pomeroy Village
Council members Don
Andersen, Maureen Hennesy, and Phil Ohlinger
assembled at 6 p.m on
Monday, and delivered a
report to full council later
that evening.
The committee recommended a more formal
process to administering
large events held in town.
Proposals included a
designated point person
with contact information
available for information
seekers, an application
process to gather more
information from event
organizers, and speciﬁc
guidelines pertaining to
cleanup and electrical
safety.
In previous meetings,
Pomeroy Merchants
Association representatives noted the difﬁculty
of locating event details,
especially if the event
lacked a strong online
presence.
The committee also
recommended Main
Street not be closed during business hours, and
barricades operated only
at the supervision of
Pomeroy Police, rather
than organizers.
Other possibilities suggested, were a deposit
instituted against proper
post-event cleanup, and a
fair fee charged for utilities.
The committee members stated they hope
these adjustments would
improve the overall value
and experience of the
many festivals and events
held on the river walk.
Council President
Andersen added “we are
100 percent for the festivals,” but that the village
absorbing so many costs
and shutting down trafﬁc
in the business district
reduced the value.
“We would want to see
the use remain basically
free for non-proﬁts,” said
Ohlinger.
Non committee council members generally
agreed with the assessments, and it was determined Andersen would
submit a draft of the
changes at a future meeting.
The committee
reported preliminary
information on the future
of Mechanic Street Park,
following a land donation
by Farmers Bank that will
unify several plots already
held by the village.
Committee members
were optimistic about
potential additions to the
area once called “Sugar
Run.”

wait for one of the most
closely guarded bills in
years. McConnell stitched
it together behind closed
doors, potentially moving
President Donald Trump
and the GOP a step closer
to achieving perhaps their
greatest goal — repealing
former President Obama’s
2010 statute, his proudest
domestic legacy.
At the White House,
Trump spoke of a bill “with
heart.” On Facebook,
Obama said at the heart of
the bill was “fundamental

meanness.”
The bill would end
Obama’s tax penalties on
people who don’t buy insurance — effectively ending
the so-called individual
mandate — and on larger
companies that don’t offer
coverage to their workers.
It would provide less generous subsidies for people
than Obama’s law but
provide billions to states
and insurance companies
to buttress markets that in
some areas have been abandoned by insurers.

Stone towers provide history lesson
By Morgan McKinniss

GALLIPOLIS — The
old stone towers near
Haskins Park have more
history to tell than meets
the eye.
They were originally
constructed in 1892 to
provide water service
to the Ohio Hospital for
Epileptics.
Mary Lee Marchi, former Historical Society
President, said: “They
were put into use for the
ﬁrst time in 1899 as a
result of a feud between
the State and the City of
Gallipolis.”
Initially, the city
agreed to provide free
water to the hospital,
not accounting for the
amount of water they
would need. The dispute
came when the city
wanted to put meters on
the hospital water lines,
in the hopes of charging
for the excessive water
use. In response to this,
the water towers were
constructed by the state
facility.
According to the historical marker “These
three stone water towers

The water towers have been standing for 124 years, serving functionally for 58 of them.

were erected by local
craftsman.”
They were constructed
out of local uncoursed
sandstone from the surrounding hills. Uncoursed
stone is taken directly
from the quarry with little
shaping or cutting, giving
the towers their rough,
unﬁnished exterior. The
towers were in service to
the hospital until 1950,
and were later restored in
1981 as monuments. John
Gee, of Gallipolis fame, is
rumored to have played a

part in the construction
as well.
Marchi also explained
some of the technical
aspects of the water supply system at the institution. They were each
drilled 240 feet down,
and all three were capable
of producing 20,000 gallons of water an hour. Air
pumps moved the water
to a cistern at the power
house, which held 50,000
gallons of water. A reservoir on top of the hill held
800,000 gallons of water

for use at the hospital.
This facility was started during the American
Civil War as a Union
hospital, which served
both Union and Confederate soldiers at the end of
the war. The facility is
currently the Gallipolis
Developmental Center,
and is one of 10 state run
residential care facilities
for individuals with developmental needs.

PATRIOT — A call for help in ﬁnding a missing
dog has raised concern from other owners in the
area whose pets have recently gone missing.
Sherry Skidmore Russell is seeking assistance
from friends, neighbors and citizens in locating
her English Bulldog, Izzy, who went missing June
16 from her residence off Ohio 141 between Cadmus and Patriot. Her appeals on social media are
accompanied by the offer of a $1,600 reward if
Izzy is returned or for information leading to her
whereabouts.
Information that helps in Izzy’s recovery can
be messaged to Russell’s Facebook account, or
by calling 740-645-3620 or 740-379-9392. Within
the last several days, response to Russell’s online
outreach has yielded a wealth of support from individuals and businesses anxious to help.
Also, Russell and those individuals who have
responded to her postings have raised the possibility that some of the disappearances are actually
thefts, and such incidents should be publicized to
increase pet owners’ awareness.
Russell, a nurse-practitioner who operates a family health care ofﬁce in Jackson, said Izzy is not
the kind of dog to go off on her own for lengths of
time.
“She is not a dog who wanders off,” Russell said.
“She is a very low-energy English Bulldog who
could never make it very far from our yard. Izzy
is one of our family and she will not tolerate this
heat.”
While pet owners have posted reports on Facebook of their dogs either going missing or being
stolen, Gallia County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Troy
Johnson said 9-1-1 has taken three calls of such
incidents between May 30 and June 19, including
Russell’s. Johnson has put in a request to 9-1-1
for similar calls and reports covering the past two
months.
“I’ve asked for information that will help paint
me a picture of this happening in certain townships, at certain times of the day or of certain
breeds, anything that helps in forming a pattern,”
said Johnson, who’s spoken this week with Russell
about her situation.
“There are trends and we have heightened our
awareness of these concerns,” added Johnson, who
emphasized that help from the public, so critical to
alerting deputies to criminal activity in the past,
remains a valuable tool. Anyone with information
on canines suspected of being stolen is encouraged to post it conﬁdentially to the the sheriff’s
Facebook page or the department’s anonymous tip
line at 740-446-6555.
In the interim, help has poured in from local
businesses and individuals in getting Izzy back to
her owner. Ratliff Pool Center’s digital billboard in
Gallipolis carries information for those searching
for or who may locate the dog. Ohio Valley Home
Health staff has joined the search.
Meanwhile the reward amount has been bolstered through contributions from Bubba Klinko
and Julie Rayette Berkley of the Home Away from
Home Kennel on Centerpoint Road near Thurman, Roxy’s Furniture at the Ohio River Plaza in
Gallipolis, Rebecca Wilcoxon, Greg Bryant and
Dixie Layton-Walker.
Home Away from Home has also volunteered as
an anonymous drop site for Izzy. The kennel can
be contacted at 740-245-5557.

Kent Wolfe coaches the Lady Tornadoes from the sideline at South Gallia, on January 22, 2015.

Wolfe hired as new Rebels boys coach
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

MERCERVILLE, Ohio
— Kent Wolfe wanted one
last opportunity at coaching
boys basketball in the Ohio
Valley.
He hopes to make his last
stand at South Gallia High
School.
That’s because Wolfe — a
1982 Southern High School
graduate, a Meigs County
resident and coach of the
Lady Tornadoes for the past
three seasons — was hired
in late May as the new head
boys coach of the Rebels.
Wolfe replaces Larry Howell, who resigned in March
and following the completion of last year.
Wolfe, who has head
coaching experience in four
different districts in Ohio,
will teach junior high mathematics at South Gallia —
as he resigned as Southern
Elementary’s (grades four
thru eight) principal following nine years.
South Gallia students in
grades six thru 12 are all
housed in the same building
in Mercerville.
But boys basketball is
Wolfe’s ﬁrst coaching love,
and he intends —after three
decades in education — to
make the Rebels his ﬁnal
mentorship stop.
Since the opportunity never arose at his alma
mater of Southern, it’s
South Gallia which is giving
him a chance.
Wolfe was a member of
the 1980 and 1982 Tornado
clubs, coached by Carl Wolfe
and assisted by Howie
Caldwell, which advanced to
the state tournament.
He then went on to play
at Rio Grande College under
head coach John Lawhorn.
“I’ve wanted to be a part
of the boys basketball program at Southern, but just
never got that opportunity.
But now I get an opportunity to run my own program
in this area. I’m looking
forward to it,” said Wolfe,
in an interview on Tuesday.
“It’s a challenge, but I’m
of the philosophy that I’ve
always had challenges. I was
always told as a player that I
was too short and too small.
But I got to play basketball
at Rio Grande and did well
there. I was told I couldn’t
win at New Knoxville and

Logan Elm, but overall,
we did well at both places.
There are always people out
there that say you can’t do
this or you can’t do that. But
I’ve always wanted to prove
to those people that ‘yes I
can’. I want this to be my
last job. I want to be able
to stay there and build the
program up and always be a
contender or highly competitive every year. That’s what
we’re striving for. You can’t
do that unless you build your
program.”
Wolfe returns to coaching boys after leading the
2015-16 Lady Tornadoes to
their ﬁrst sectional championship in several seasons,
part of three years with the
program.
“I enjoyed every minute of
my three years coaching the
(Southern) girls. I was really
pleased with what we did,”
he said. “With Waterford
and Eastern always in that
league, to ﬁnish third in that
league, we thought we did
really well.”
His overall coaching
record stands at 177-125,
with 135 victories and 98
losses in coaching boys.
His ﬁrst head coaching
position was at New Knoxville in northwest Ohio,
before moving on to Logan
Elm for nine years — and to
nearby Westfall for another
two.
Logan Elm was in the
Central District before
switching to the Southeast,
as Wolfe led the Braves to
their ﬁrst-ever appearance at
the Ohio University Convocation Center and the Division II district tournament.
He then returned to Meigs
County and at Southern,
becoming the Southern
Elementary principal — and
around the same time with
the passing of his father and
his uncle.
However, there was no
immediate boys coaching
opportunity in the area —
until he heard through the
grapevine that the South
Gallia position was open.
“After I came back to
Southern, I had wanted to
coach boys basketball again
for a long time,” said Wolfe.
He said he applied and
interviewed with the administration at South Gallia
— and was “thoroughly
impressed” with Gallia
County Local Schools Super-

High School.

intendent Jude Meyers and
his staff.
Speaking of staff, Wolfe
— who will continue commuting from Syracuse and
have a transportation pickup
point to Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division tilts
— is retaining the Rebels’
assistants of last season.
“I am very excited about
this opportunity and
couldn’t ask for a better
place to be. I’ve been working with the kids for about
ﬁve weeks now. They are
wanting me to build this
program back up,” said the
coach. “We’re in a situation
right now where we have
some younger kids that we
need to keep in the program.
I’m kind of starting from
scratch. We’ve got some
kids that didn’t come out
last year and now they are
back, so you are reteaching
them and they have lost a
year of skill level. But they
play extremely hard. When
I saw them play last year,
I thought they were quite
competitive. Defensively,
they were very aggressive
and they are very welltaught. It doesn’t seem like
it’s going to be a real big
transition for me defensively.
But we have to worry about
playing good fundamental
man-to-man defense ﬁrst.”
The young Rebels of last
season, which graduated
just two seniors of any signiﬁcant varsity playing time,

went just 3-18 — but were
involved in eight games in
which they lost by seven
points or less.
They relied heavily upon
defense since they often
struggled to score points
—and junior-to-be Caleb
Henry, who averaged a teamhigh 14 points per game in
being named Division IV
third-team all-Southeast District by the Associated Press
—has transferred to Gallia
Academy.
Wolfe said since he was
hired so late in the last academic year, he was unable to
schedule the Rebels for any
team camps in the summer
—but did ﬁnd an opening at
the University of Rio Grande
shootout.
He said he expects to have
between 20 and 23 kids in
the entire junior varsity and
varsity programs next year,
with an estimated 11 or 12
players for the varsity level.
“We will have a couple
of players probably ﬂoat
between varsity and JV, and
we need to get our freshmen
a few games, giving them as
many quarters as possible,”
said Wolfe. “We want kids
that want to be here and I
really like the kids that are
in the gym right now. They
want to be there and want
to play and their ultimate
goal is like mine. We want
to get to the Convo (Ohio

From now until then,
though, Wolfe said he aims
to see continued improvement from his newest bunch
of boys.
“In the short period of
time we’ve had so far, I’ve
been really happy with them
and have seen quite a bit
of growth,” he said. “I’m
antsy for the season to get
here and get things going.
I’ve been really pleased so
far with what’ve done, our
kids are getting better every
week. We still have a lot of
work to do, but the attitude
has been tremendous, they
are great listeners and real
receptive, and they’ve been
on task. I want our players
to work harder than me. I
work real hard as a coach. I
hardly ever sit down on the
bench during a game. I’m
up and giving instructions
almost all the time. If these
kids can work as hard as I
can, then we’ll hang in there
and be okay.”
