Author Talks About the Environmental Aspects of Draining the Great Black Swamp

Sun 11/15 @ 1-2PM There’s something fascinating about the idea of the Great Black Swamp, which once covered millions of acres Northwest Ohio, Northeast Indiana and Southeast Michigan. The ice age-created ecosystem, which featured a mix of wetlands, forests and meadows, existed for 20,000 years until it was dredged and drained in the 19th century to create the farmland that underpinned the wealth of Ohio. Close your eyes and imagine what it was like hundreds of years ago: no roads, no housing developments, no shopping centers, no petrochemical plants on Navarre Road near Toledo, no terrible country and religious radio stations …

Bowling Green wins program-1st state title at Ohio state cross country meet

OBETZ, Ohio — A trip to the OHSAA boys cross country championships provided a breakthrough moment for the Bowling Green program, which captured its first-ever state title on Saturday. In Division II, one point separated Bowling Green (181) from second-place Lexington (182). Paced by Lloyd Waldron (15:58.0), Rece Simon (15:59.7), and Sam Wiles (16:00.02), the Bobcats’ top three finished 25th, 26th, and 27th. “We knew we were going to be ranked first, and that we had a very good chance, since we got second last year,” Waldron said. “Knowing we looked at the coaches' poll every week, the rankings every week, we’ve known that we’re going to be a contender, but it always came down to today and this time. It’s the passion that we have for the sport, and how much we love running as a pack and staying together as an elite group.” Waldron, Simon, and Wiles have been staples for the Bobcats. Each earned first-team selections in the Northern Lakes League Cardinal Division and played a part in delivering a fourth straight league title, along with the state championship. The championship saw Bowling Green overthrow Lexington, which was in pursuit of its fourth state title in 11

Copper Moon celebrates 20 years of glass art and family tradition

For Stacy Owen, owner of Copper Moon Studio Gallery & Gifts near Holland, it all started in a tiny house in the 7100 block of Front Street. The glassblower of 30 years always wanted to own her business and finally decided to take the leap with the help of her father, Bruce Wetzel, and Dan Owen, who is now her husband, around 2006. “Finally, I was like, ‘OK, this would be great,’” Mrs. Owen said of starting the business. “Then, at that point, I was like, ‘Let’s try this little teeny tiny house and see how it goes.’” Twenty years later, the trio found themselves celebrating how much the business had grown and the challenges they overcame through the studio’s 20th Mooniversary Weekend. The two-day event featured walk-in Lil’ Chips activities, cutting classes, and metalworking workshops. The studio’s Lil’ Chips class allows participants to make glass suncatchers, candle holders, plates, and night-lights. Many families participated Saturday. Jayme Harper of Traverse City, Mich., sat next to her daughter, Adaliese Harper, 10, and her sister, Jenny Harrington of Ottawa Hills. Ms. Harrington was with her daughters, Gillian, 8, and Grady, 10, whom she was guiding through the process. Grady made a plate
