Every Mom
should have
her own day
After receiving the numerous entries for our Best Mom in Clyde contest, it is obvious we have some wonderful mothers in our community. Not everyone could be a winner of our contest, but some of the thoughts about what makes a "Best Mom" are still worth sharing from the essays.

When your word
is worth gold
Clyde and Green Springs does not have a Kalahari Water Park Resort in their backyard to donate $500,000 for a single project as does the Huron City Schools.

It's been a sad,
sad spectacle
Preservationists in Seneca County are taking their battle to save the 1884 courthouse to the Ohio Supreme Court.
Good for them - win or lose.
For some reason politicians in the county cannot seem to understand that Tiffin has been identified in people's minds for over a century as home to the g ...

Clydescope
made good call
Clydescope Economic Development Corporation Inc. named David Danhoff this week as its new director.
We think it should be a very good fit for the entire community. Former director Dick Dagg left his position earlier this year after nearly 13 years of promoting this community.
Clyde is enjoying ...

In shape for a new decade

After compiling on this progress section, it is apparent that we should be counting our many blessings. The biggest one has to be having a plant like Whirlpool Corporation located in our community.

Another reason to be proud
We have always been pretty proud to report that local people often think of others.
It must be in our predominant blue-collar makeup. When you look at the size of Clyde and the Village of Green Springs, it is amazing that we have large community parks, a local senior center, and two beautiful p ...

Campaign tactic
a harassment
The United States Presidential Candidates alone have spent over $8 million in Ohio last month on advertising.

Many reasons

Time to tie
a yellow ribbon
Valentine's Day is over. Christmas is long past. The election is March 4. But we seem to be forgetting something.

We would not
steer you wrong
Thinking back about five or six years ago, a large group of local "Naysayers" heckled this newspaper and supporters of the new Clyde High School auditorium.
Even though one-third of the cost of that $3 million facility was donated, the 'naysayers' said the tax was too high. They complained that n ...

Give us
the good too
We find reports of the alleged rape and kidnapping of a teenage girl offensive and chilling. Local people should, we live here.
What is bewildering is why the same report receives so much media coverage in communities that have far more crime than we do.
A little digging into police logs in San ...

Remembering hard lessons
It is hard to believe it has been 30 years since the Great Blizzard of '78.
People under the age of 35 have not seen a storm or disaster like it since in this area. You would have to look at Hurricane Katrina to fathom the danger faced by Ohioans 30 years ago. That blizzard was a hurricane of s ...

Those Aussies
may be right
It seems clear some people don't learn.
Week after week we keep reporting that Clyde Police are breaking up bar fights or underage parties.
Yes, our police are here to keep the public peace. But should they really have to chase down young adults who do not understand alcohol regulations or mode ...
