BY JOHN SCHAFFNER Publisher Home sales activity reached its highest level since 2008, according to a release from the Ohio Association of Realtors. All aspects of home sales in the area represented by the Firelands Association of Realtors (Erie, Ottawa, Sandusky, Seneca and Huron counties) showed significant gains for the month of March based on OAR statistics. The local area boasted a 33.3 percent gain on the number of units sold in March of 2012 compared to March of 2011, going from 155 units sold last year to 207 this past March. The average home sale price also jumped by 11.7 percent from $97,000 to over $108,000, making the combined dollar volume increase solid 49 percent jump over last March. The March sales only served to make the first quarter numbers also look very good. The number of units sold jumped nearly 19 percent compared to the same period last year while the average sale price also picked up by almost 6 percent. Combined, the total dollar volume of housing sales jumped from $37.5 million in 2011 to more than $47 million in 2012. Activity in March was substantial and weve now posted nine consecutive monthly sales gains, dating back to July 2011, said OAR President Robert Miller. Were extremely hopeful that the housing sector will continue to make progress throughout 2012 and build upon the solid foundation that has been established. Locally, Cindy Bolte of Bolte Real Estate and Insurance reported similar success in the first quarter of 2012. My numbers are substantially higher first quarter of 12 over first quarter of 11 not

Congratulations to Rosemary Rose and our wonderful childrens staff for winning the Ohio Library Councils Outstanding Program award for the Lets Pretend Series at the Ida Rupp Public Library. Lets Pretend is an interactive program for 3-, 4- and 5-year-old pre-kindergarten children focusing on imaginative play. The first part of the program features stories and songs for a child without a caregiver. Caregivers and siblings are then invited to join in for imaginative play. The new Every Child Ready to Read program from PLA and ALSC added an emphasis on play to promote early literacy skills; therefore, we wanted to provide an opportunity for kids to participate in imaginative play with their families. Each month a theme is chosen, and using recyclable materials such as boxes, milk cartons and packing materials along with the creative skills of our staff, our community room transforms into an art studio or a campground or an apple farm. Because we use mostly the free materials, the cost is around $25 per program. The program takes place twice in one day to accommodate as many children as possible. Themes created in 2011 include Art Studio, Camping, All Around Town, Apple Farm and Firefighters. The program starts with a 20- to 25-minute story time for the children that includes books, songs and finger plays about the theme followed by free play time with parents and siblings who are welcomed into the program after the story time. For example, the Apple Farm program included picking apples, washing apples, cutting apples and making apple turnovers-all using pretend play. Pretend apple turnovers were created with felt, glitter as cinnamon and sugar and foam apples and then cooked in our oven made of boxes. Children were then able to taste a real apple turnover. Attendance is between 30-50 people including parents and siblings. Each family leaves with information on Every Child Ready to Read, finger plays and rhymes, book suggestions, activities to do at home along with ideas on how to recreate the pretend play adventure at home. Each program receives many thanks from caregivers and requests for more. The program is planned by Rose Mary Rose, a youth services staff member with more than 30 years of library experience working with children. The entire youth services staff helps wherever necessary from making props, preparing information for parents and setting and cleaning up the community room. We are very proud of our staff for receiving this Give a Shout Outstanding Program award. Deborah Loiacono, Director Ida Rupp Public Library
The blood tests performed serve as an early warning health screen to indicate if one might have current or potential health problems. The tests allow detection of many medical conditions including:
ANEMIA Iron BONE DISEASE Calcium Phosphorus DIABETES Glucose GOUT Uric Acid HEART DISEASE Cholesterol Triglycerides HDL LDL Sodium Potassium Chloride Bicarbonate Electrolyte Balance Osmolality Calculation
KIDNEY DISEASE Blood Urea Nitrogen Creatinine BUN/Creatinine Ratio LIVER DISEASE Albumin Globulin Albumin/Globulin Ratio GGTP SGOT SGPT LDH Total Bilirubin Total Protein Alkaline Phosphatase
Beginning at age 50, men and women who are at average risk for developing colorectal cancer (i.e., no family history, etc.) should begin screening. Screening can result in the detection of colorectal polyps before they become cancerous, as well as the detection of cancer that is at an early stage. This take home kit is a basic screen for blood in the stool, which could be a sign of several colorectal health issues.
