Clean Ohio AEPP Program DESCRIPTION: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.

Mark Gooch\, chairman of the Friends of Christmas Run Pool (FOCRP) got some welcome news when a potential donor to the Christmas Run Pool Fund offered a one-for-one matching challenge grant to boost their fundraising efforts to keep the pool open.
The challenge is made possible from the Rose Family Charitable Fund\, established to honor Grant and Margaret Rose\, long-time Wooster residents. This fund will match all donations up to a total of $25\,000\, made between now and June 6\, 2010\, which is the opening day of the Christmas Run Pool.
“By meeting this challenge\, we would be able to add $50\,000 to what we have already received\,” said Gooch\, “which would get us fairly close to our initial goal. It also gives potential donors and businesses a greater incentive to support some of the fundraising activities planned by the committee. We are extremely grateful to the Rose family for making this challenge grant possible\,” he added.
All donations qualify for a charitable tax deduction and checks should be made payable to the Wayne County Community Foundation\, listing Christmas Run Pool on the check memo line. Donors will be recognized by FOCRP based on their contributions within the below five giving levels\:
• Whale $5\,000 and up
• Marlin $1\,000-4\,999
• Dolphin $500-999
• Starfish $100-499
• Goldfish $0-99
The WCCF is a tax exempt public charity that consists of nearly 300 separate funds that were generously donated to benefit the community. Since 1978\, it has awarded over $43 million to the community in the form of grants and scholarships.

Coshocton County Beagle Club Hosts the
Annual Beagle Nationals in Coshocton\, Ohio
April 17 &\; 18\, 2010
The United Kennel Club’s 2010 Beagle Nationals is a hunting beagle event held annually in Coshocton\, Ohio. In accordance with UKC Rules and Regulations\, no game is taken and no firearms are allowed. There will also be a Beagle Bench Show on Saturday. The Bench Show offers something a little different\, in which the Beagles are judged on a breed standard.
The Beagle event will start off on Saturday\, April 17\, with a hunt at 7\:00 am. Later that day will be a Bench show at 2\:00 pm. The following day will contain one hunt at 7\:00 am.
Hunting Beagle events offer the participants a chance to participate in each cast as an active handler. Both the handler and his dog work as a team while attempting to outscore the three other handlers and dogs in the cast. Where casts are randomly drawn at the local clubhouse and are sent to the brush to be run on wild rabbits and judged under simulated hunting conditions.
The Beagle breed was originally conceived as a dog to pursue rabbits and bring them around to the gun for hunters. The UKC Beagle program strives to keep each breed as it was originally intended. Letting natural instinct take over and seeing what the Beagle can do best.
Along with the Hunting Beagles\, UKC will hold one Bench Show taking place Saturday. Bench Shows are traditional “Dog Shows” for Beagles. Teams entered in Saturday’s Bench Show compete and go against Champion and Grand Champion caliber Beagles for the chance to be crowned 2010 UKC Beagle Nationals Overall Champion.
Established in 1898\, the United Kennel Club is the largest all-breed performance-dog registry in the world\, registering dogs from all 50 states and 25 foreign countries. More than 60 percent of its 13\,000 annually licensed events are tests of hunting ability\, training and instinct. UKC prides itself on its family-oriented\, friendly\, educational events.

As part of a nationwide effort to encourage kids to get moving\, the Towpath Trail YMCA will host YMCA Healthy Kids Day\, the nation’s largest health day for kids and families. YMCA Healthy Kids Day is filled with fun\, engaging and creative activities that foster healthy living\, and is a part of the YMCA’s larger efforts to help more kids and families become physically active. All activities are free and open to the public.
YMCA Healthy Kids Day at the Towpath Trail YMCA will provide resources to help educate grown-ups about making healthy choices for their families every day. There will be activities such as 10 minute pony rides\, a bounce house\, healthy snacks\, and much\, much more.
“Keeping kids healthy is at the core of what the YMCA stands for\,” said Beth Alban\, Associate Executive Director for the YMCA of Western Stark County. “The word ‘exercise’ doesn’t sound very enjoyable to many people\, especially kids\, but getting them to move more through play that requires physical activity is the key to building healthy habits that last a lifetime. On YMCA Healthy Kids Day\, both kids and grown-ups will have the opportunity to get moving\, to play and to have fun.”
Experts recommend that kids engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity\, including active play\, each day. Studies show that kids who consistently engage in play are happier and healthier\, and develop and enhance a variety of skills including motor skills\, social skills\, problem solving\, and creativity. Kids who get 60 minutes of physical play also tend to have higher self-esteem and perform better academically.
To make more time for physical activity\, the Towpath Trail YMCA offers simple ways to put more play in kids’ day\, and to get the family moving more\, too!
1. Make physical activity a regular part of family playtime – the more active kids are the more likely they are to continue being physically active later in life.
2. Allow kids to have unstructured playtime. All play is not created equal – kids need different types of play\, including indoor and outdoor\, active and inactive.
3. Reintroduce your child to the basics of active play\: play hopscotch or basketball\, jump rope\, or enjoy games such as Red Light\, Green Light and Simon Says.
4. Limit screen time and use of electronic media to allow more time for play.
“The goal of encouraging kids to play more is to build a lifetime of love for physical activity\,” said Alban. “Play should not seem like a chore – it is an activity that is fun and brings joy\, and allows a kid to just be a kid.”
More than 700\,000 kids and families are expected to participate in YMCA Healthy Kids Day events at nearly 1\,500 YMCAs nationwide. For more information about YMCA Healthy Kids Day\, call the Towpath Trail YMCA at (330)879-0800 or visit www.weststarkymca.org.
