Wayne County Planning Dept.
Clean Ohio AEPP Program

Applications for the 2010 Clean Ohio Agricultural Easement Purchase Program (AEPP) are open and available in the Wayne County Planning Department or online at www.agri.ohio.gov/farmland.

This year there will be $6.25 million to distribute to Ohio Farmers to protect their farmland. Farmland preservation efforts ensure that agriculture remains a viable industry in our state. Farmland is the foundation of Ohio's $98 billion food and agriculture industry and the Clean Ohio funds, which were supported by voters in every Ohio county in 2008, are one tool for protecting Ohio's agricultural future. The Clean Ohio AEPP utilizes the agricultural easement, a voluntary and legally binding restriction placed on a farm, to ensure the land stays in agriculutre. This easement limits the use of the land to predominantly agricultural activity. The land still remains under private ownership and management and stays on the tax rolls under Current Agricultural Use Valuation (CAUV) and the farm can be sold or passed along as a gift to others at any time, yet the restriction prohibiting non-agricultural development stays with the land.
Farmer's and landowners interested in applying for this year's OAEPP should contact the Wayne County Planning Department at 330-287-5420.

Applications must reach the Ohio Department of Agriculture by April 26. The Wayne County deadline for submitted applications is April 19.

The Wooster Branch for the American Association of University Women is pleased to announce the availability of its 2010 Wooster AAUW Scholarship. Applications may be downloaded at www.waynecountycommunityfoundation.org(Select "Scholarship Information" then "Wayne County") or through contacting Scholarship Chair, Peggy Guttieri at 330-264-0096..

Supported by our popular Annual Book Sale in September, our scholarships are given to Wayne County residents who are non-traditional female students who have had their undergraduate or professional education interupted and plan to continue their education. Deadline for applications is May 15, 2010 and Scholarships will be awarded by June 15, 2010.

Multiple Scholarships range from $500 to $2500 and monies may be used for books, tuition, course fees, or related educational experience as determined by the AAUW Board.

Spring Ozark Ramble
May 14-24, 2010
Join TWC Executive Director, Gordon Maupin, as he returns to his old Ozark stomping grounds with a biogeocultural ramble through the Ozark highlands of Missouri and Arkansas.

David Tylka, a vertebrate biology professor from St. Louis Community College, will join the trip as the local naturalist. Gordon and Dave worked together to make the itinerary unforgettable.

The trips will begin with a flight to St. Louis and quick travel to Ha Ha Tonka State Park in the Missouri Ozarks. The group then heads south with a stop at La Petite Gemme Prairie, a Missouri Natural Area and native (never plowed) prairie. Then it's down into the Boston Mountain section of the Ozarks.Using Harrison, Arkansas as a base, you will visit the Ozark Underground Laboratory for a combined surface and underground tour to learn how water has shaped the Ozark Mountains from above and below.

The following day we'll visit the Ozark Natural Science Center where various species of wildlife, including Box Turtles, have been radio tagged. There will be time to visit a special waterfall as well.

The next day will include some stops along Buffalo National River, including Lost Valley, a spectacular limestone valley with waterfalls and Ozark wildflowers.

Then the group will head east through scenic highlands to Mountain View, Arkansas to visit the Ozark Folk Center and soak up some cultural history. The group will also visit Blanchard Spring Cavern, one of the most spectacular caves in America ever opened for tourism.

The trip will then swing north again with visits to Grand Gulf, Mammoth Spring and Big Spring on the way to Poplar Bluff. From Poplar Bluff the group will drop off the Ozark highlands for a daylong visit to Mingo National Wildlife Refuge to view a Cypress Tupeleo swamp.

The next day we head north to the St. Francis Mountain. These ancient mountains are a granite intrusion into the mostly limestone Ozarks. There we will see Elephant Rocks and some other natural and geological places of interest. The last day will be a short drive through the Ozarks to return to St. Louis.

If you are interested, contact Gordon at gordon@wildernesscenter.org or 1-877-359-5235. Cost will be about $1,828.75 double occupancy or $2,359.75 for single. To save your spot, send in a deposit of $400 per person. There will be a meeting on March 20 at 1:30 p.m. at TWC

Ohio’s Mining History and Its Impact Today at The Wilderness Center- Sat., March 13th, 1:00-2:00
Presented by Tim Jackson of ODNR Division of Mineral Resources Management and Kirk Beach, Geology Program Manager of the Ohio Department of Transportation.
In Ohio, underground mining began back before the turn of the century. Underground mine maps are available, some dating back to the late 1800’s. According to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, over 6,400 underground mines are found in 42 counties across the state. Further, this number represents only two-thirds of the total number of underground mines due to missing and lost mine maps. This presentation will provide an overview of the adverse impacts caused by past underground mining activities; and, present the processes used by state agencies to identify, monitor, design and remediate underground mining problems. In addition, several examples of remediation efforts will be presented and discussed. Sponsored by the TWC Geology Club. Call 1-877-359-5235 for more information.

Home Remedy is as much a folk music group as a gathering, or a preservation society, or simply a “happening” with music and fun. Everyone sings, a full half of the band plays fiddle or guitar, and all switch up as needed from song to song, with a sprinkling of autoharp, dulcimer, mandolin, standup bass and traditional percussions.
$8/TWC member; $10/nonmember. Children 15 and younger half price, if accompanied by an adult. We’d like to thank our Concert Series sponsor, Regas & Haag, Attorneys-at-Law. See you there! For more information visit www.wildernesscenter.org or call 1-877-359-5235.

Two-day event features speakers, roundtable discussions, and panel presentations

The College of Wooster will present "Bridging the Gaps: Diversity and Global Engagement in Liberal Arts Education," a two-day conference to celebrate its new Center for Diversity and Global Engagement, next weekend (March 26-27). The event will feature speakers, roundtable discussions, and presentations by students and faculty.

The presentations begin Friday (March 26) with a keynote address by College of Wooster President Grant Cornwell, whose vision led to the establishment of the new Center. Cornwell's presentation will begin at 4:30 p.m. in Lean Lecture Room of Wishart Hall (303 E. University St.). After that, a reception will be held at 6 p.m. in the formal lounge of Babcock Hall (1315 Beall Ave.), where directors Susan Lee and Marc Goulding will welcome guests. In addition, Wooster's Ambassadors - five international students - will be available for casual conversation along with display items from their home countries. A private dinner will follow in Kittredge Hall.

The conference sessions begin on Saturday morning with a panel presentation on "Diversity, Globality, and Liberal Arts Curricula" from 8:30-10 a.m. in Babcock's formal lounge. A second panel will follow from 10-11:30 a.m., during which students and faculty will discuss "Expanding Horizons: Off-Campus Experiences and the Liberal Arts."

The first of two alumni speakers will address the group at lunch in Kittredge Hall. Davis Houck, a 1989 Wooster graduate and now an associate professor of communication at Florida State University where he specializes in rhetorical theory and criticism on political communication and sports as well as media and culture, will talk about the unheard women's voices of the U.S. Civil Rights Movement.

After lunch, three roundtable discussions will take place concurrently between 1:30 and 2:45 p.m. The three topics are "De-Constructing 'Whiteness,'" "Gender and Sexuality Across Borders," and "The Global U.S."

The program concludes with a presentation from 3-4:30 p.m. by Thomas Espenshade, a 1965 Wooster graduate, and professor of sociology and a faculty associate in the Office of Population Research at Princeton University. Espenshade will discuss his latest book, No Longer Separate, Not Yet Equal: Race and Class in Elite College Admission and Campus Life.

Wooster's Center for Diversity and Global Engagement (CDGE) is a nexus of programs and offices committed to "encouraging and fostering development of inter-cultural competency among all campus community members." Housed in the recently renovated Babcock Hall, which is also home for students living in the Cross-Cultural Living and Experiences Program, the CDGE serves as a base for campus and community initiatives addressing all forms of diversity. It also brings together student life and academic affairs while seeking to foster understanding of local experiences in a broader global context. The Center includes the Ambassadors Program, the Office of International Student Affairs, Off-Campus Studies, and the Office of Multi-ethnic Student Affairs.

The Winesburg Ohio Post Office will be participating in this year’s “Passport Day in the USA” on Saturday, March 27, 2010.

The event is designed to bring attention to the fact that passports are needed for any International air travel as well as land border crossings between the US, Canada, and Mexico. Most cruises now require a passport as well.

Now is the time to plan for that fishing trip to Canada, or visiting a relative staying in a foreign country! Staring last June, passports are required to re-enter the US from neighboring countries by land. And if you are traveling by plane, the requirement for a passport book has been in place for quite some time.

Make sure you are ready for that trip by attending the Winesburg Post Office’s Passport Day, Saturday, March 27th, from 8 am to noon. Applicants will need to bring their original or a certified copy of their birth certificate, issued by the county or state, and not a hospital birth record. They also need a photo ID, such as a driver’s license or state-issued ID card. They will also need to know their parent’s birth information, i.e., when and where their parents were born. Other information is basic, such as address, occupation, and so on. Children age sixteen and under need BOTH parents present to execute the application. Photos are available at the Winesburg Post Office as well, making it a true one-stop shopping trip! Most passports take four to six weeks to issue, so be sure and plan early. Passport books and cards can be expedited, but there is an extra fee.

The employees at Winesburg process passports on a daily basis also, but for this event, two clerks will be available to make the process quick and easy! The cost for a passport book, needed for air travel, is $115 and includes the photographs. A passport card, good only for land border crossings, costs $60 with photos. Passports fees are reportedly going up by $35 very soon, so now is the time to apply!

Let Debbie or Sherri help you on March 27th from 8 to noon. No appointment is necessary. If you have further questions, please call the post office at 330-359-5512.
