By Lisa yako Forty years ago, members of the St. Peters completed a wish list for the parish and school. For many, their list included a new gymnasium. Well, good things often come to those who wait. This past Friday, St. Peters Church and School celebrated the dedication of their new Parish Center and Gymnasium, and the dreams and wishes of these parishioners and others were fulfilled. Members of the parish and community turned out in great numbers to witness the official dedication of the long-anticipated gymnasium which has fittingly been named The Rock. The name given to the gym represents both the characteristics of St. Peter and of the Catholic faith. Bishop Leonard Blair, Bishop of the Toledo Dioceses, and Fr. Jeff Sikorski, Pastor of St. Peters Church, presided over the dedication. Bishop Blair felt the addition of a new gymnasium was fitting for the Catholic school because, he explained, what is important and necessary for our body is also good for our soul. Just as we must discipline our bodies through physical activity, we must discipline ourselves in the love of God and our neighbor Bishop Blair stated. Fr. Sikorski enthusiastically told the crowd that the Rock was under budget, finished ahead of schedule, and paid for. The dedication also included prayers of blessing, tours of the facility, and basketball shooting contests. The Rock, which cost $1,100,000 to complete, was made possible through an anonymous donation of $1 million. The additional $100,000 was raised through selling advertising banners that will hang in the gym for a 5-year term, other donations, and grant money. For Fr. Sikorski, who will be retiring this summer, the completion of the new gym comes with much emotion. My feelings are of gratitude to so many parishioners and members of the community, especially those who served on the Design Committee who have shepherded this project for all these months. They are really responsible for the final product because they went through every detail of drawing and planning and constructing this new building. Its just a joy! And of course, a joy to be connected

St. Peters Holds Dedication for New Gym

A large crowd gathered for the dedication of The Rock this past Friday. to the anonymous donor who has been so generous and committed to our parish, school, and CYO (Christian Youth Organization) program. stated Fr. Sikorski. The Rock is complete except for the installation of lockers in the changing rooms and the placement of a large rock outside the building. Beginning the day after the last day of the school year in June, the old gymnasium will be renovated for use as a preschool classroom and an acoustically sound-proof room for the schools band. St. Peters School wasted no time in putting the gym to good use. The first CYO game was held this past Saturday morning, and gym classes began there on Monday.

By Lisa yako Will Skinner, executive chef at Bar North Bistro in Huron, has been selected to participate in Januarys Earth to Table Dinner to be held Saturday, January 19, at the Culinary Vegetable Institute (CVI) in Milan. This event is intended to bring a chef s creativity and skill to bear on creating something beautiful to the eye and pallet from the bounty of the garden. According to their web site, CVI provides the worlds most innovative chefs with a place to share knowledge, experiment and discover techniques for growing and preparing the most flavorful varieties of vegetables in the world. The collaboration between the garden farmer and the chef and between the old and the new is the foundation of the CVI. The monthly Earth to Table Dinners at CVI not only provide diners with an amazing culinary experience, but a portion of the proceeds fund the programs of Veggie U. Veggie U, the non-profit branch of the Chef s Garden, strives to teach children to explore the exciting world of vegetables, so they have a better chance at leading a healthy life. Veggie U is committed to fostering synergy between educational, nutritional, and agricultural goals to combat the rising epidemic of childhood obesity. Along with Chef Skinner, chefs Carl Swanbeck, John Selick, and Jeff Jarrett will also be preparing the multicourse Earth to Table Dinner this month. Notably, Chef Skinner has succeeded in forming a strong bond with the Chef s Garden and the Jones Family. Bar North not only uses products from many local providers, including the Chef s Garden, but they also are committed to the earth-to-table movement in which bonds are formed between farmers and chefs, resulting in higher quality and healthier foods. Chef Skinner explained that on a recent visit to Bar North, Farmer Lee Jones asked him to be a part of this months Earth to Table dinner. I could not say no, because as a chef the farm-to-table movement is such an important movement to help strengthen the community. This Earth to Table Dinner will be Chef Skinners first time cooking at CVI and something he has always dreamt of doing. He views this opportunity as an extreme honor for Bar North and me as the chef of Bar North. We want to show people the difference from a canned or frozen product to something that is grown more naturally and healthier. Further, Chef Skinner stated that every day at our restaurant we are hoping to strengthen our community by buying from local farmers such as Mr. Hahns farm, Chef s Garden, and many other local purveyors. We think its extremely important, and we want to show people the importance of the slow food movement by shaking up the culinary scene in the Huron area. On Thursday, Chef Skinner will begin his preparation for Saturdays Earth to Table Dinner. He will prepare the opening portion of the meal, the passed appetizers, as well as an entre.

SBC Swim Champs: Boys Break School Record

Four members of the HHS boys swim team broke the school record last Saturday at the SBC Championship meet at Oak Harbor High School, besting the previous record by over a second and a half. The 400 free relay team of Jack Ineson, Stephen Tomczyk, Kevin Tomczyk and Ryan Brownell swam the race in 3:34.80, good for a 2nd place finish. The previous record of 3:36.38 was set in 2008 by Sean Sakulich, Matthew Zeck, Robert Tomczyk and Brenton Richardson. Ineson, Tomczyk, Tomczyk and Brownell also swam for a 2nd place finish in the 200 free relay while Brownell, K. Tomczyk and Ineson teamed with Brennan Cockrell to place 2nd in the 200 Medley relay. The boys team placed 5th overall in a field of six teams. Individually, points were scored by K. Tomczyk placing 2nd in the 500 free and Brownell and Ineson both taking 3rds in the 500 free and 200 IM respectively. Cockrell took 4th in the 100 breast and S. Tomczyk added a 4th in the 100 back. The girls team also placed 5th overall with Alli Slocum taking 2nd place in the 200 IM and 3rd place in the 100 breaststroke. Kaya Hamilton added a 7th place in the 100 fly, and teamed with Slocum, Courtney Hart and Megan Maley for a 4th in the 200 free relay. Slocum, Maley, Hannah Blackwell and Hart swam for a 6th place finish in the 400 free relay. The Perkins Pirates are SBC champs for both the boys and girls.

Curves located on East Perkins Avenue in Perkins Township By Lisa yako Since 1992, Curves has been helping women embrace a healthy and simple approach to exercise. Curves, which is designed exclusively for women, uses a 30-minute work out that fits into the busy schedule of todays active lifestyle. According to Curves.com, the 30 minute workout exercises every major muscle group and burns up to 500 calories through a proven program of strength training, cardio, and stretching. The Curves approach is beneficial and appropriate for women of any age and at any stage of health because the workout incorporates a less strenuous approach which means less chance of injury. Ultimately, Curves was designed for women with different fitness levels and fitness goals.

What is Selling in Erie County:

The Sanctuary at Plum Brook Condos!

New construction is the buzz at The Sanctuary. Coming off one of the worst economic periods in recent history, the Sanctuary is bustling with activity as 12 new homes are under construction and more than half are sold with a waiting list on certain locations, according to Sanctuarys new home specialist, Susie Brant. Stunning condominium homes offer active adults an unburdened lifestyle in the welcoming Sanctuary community where outside maintenance of the attractive European Country designed homes is one of many chores managed by their Condominium Owners Association. Five thoughtfully designed floor plans give buyers a choice within a range of prices and square footage. While each basic plan is one-level, three of the designs offer an optional upstairs bonus suite. Options include gourmet kitchens, hardwood floors, granite, fireplaces, walk-in showers, and private outdoor patio space among many other selections. The bright interiors and open floor plans connect kitchens, dining, and living room areas and optional verandas and sitting rooms for a warm, cozy atmosphere. Near the communitys charming entrance, the clubhouse includes a 24 hour fitness center, heated pool, kitchen, dining area, TV, fireplace, and pool table. Along with exterior maintenance of the buildings, the association also takes care of insurance, water and sewer service, trash removal, snow removal, lawn mowing and maintaining the communitys common areas. Living at The Sanctuary allows your days to belong to you where there are fewer have to-s and time for your want to-s. Imagine yourself having more time to enjoy your family and friends, relaxing at pool, enjoying your hobbies, favorite activity, or sport. Its really about lifestyle according to homeowners Jim and Pam Marchyshyn, The Sanctuary is the ultimate lifestyle development for those who have worked hard and are ready to enjoy the rewards of that hard work. We love the low maintenance and upkeep; the emphasis is on enjoying life. Shopping, restaurants, and all services are less than five minutes away, yet, you feel like you live in the country. Plus, a great clubhouse and pool are part of the total package. The Marchyshyns love the communities European Country looks! They go on to say, It totally works, is unique to the

area, stylish without being cookie cutter. The homes have great curb appeal. The build quality and fit is outstanding with floor plans designed for an active, non-stressful living. You will not find a more passionate, informed and helpful team, totally into the community and the residents. There are never problems just solutions. Its a great feeling to know the Sanctuary team is managing your new lifestyle in your best interests. Jim and Pam Marchyshyn, happy with their choice. Conveniently located just off Hull Road in

Huron Township across from Plum Brook Country Club, the Sanctuary is minutes from shopping, restaurants, and many local area attractions. Whether youre just curious or genuinely interested in right-sizing your home and improving your lifestyle, come in and see what The Sanctuary has to offer.
