| Spaghetti dinners set for John Waite, Simon Mercurio |
|
I hope you like spaghetti!!! There will be TWO spaghetti dinners the next two weeks for good causes. First, the John Waite Family benefit will be held Saturday serving from 5 to 8 p.m. at Port Clinton Yacht Club. Nearly 80 items have been donated for a silent auction to take place during dinner. You could win ferry tickets, hotel and B&B or spa packages, dining certificates, jewelry, fishing trips, autographed Browns and Buckeyes memorabilia and much more. You might even get to bid on playing the cowbell with the Travelin’ Lounge Lizards, who start playing at 8 p.m. Tickets are $12 and all proceeds will help On Friday, Feb. 5, a spaghetti dinner will be served for Simon Mercurio, the 17-year-old who was paralyzed from the waist down in a tumbling accident. The dinner is from 4 to 6:30 p.m. We had 98 correct entries in our Find Wylie contest last week. Our winner is Tim Glovinsky, of Port Clinton, who correctly found Wylie in the Commodore Perry Credit Union ad on page 2B last week. Tim wins a $20 gift card from Friendship Convenient Stores. We’ll hide Wylie again this week. If you find him, drop us a note at our office … or click on the Find Wylie icon online at www.thebeacon.net. The Oak Harbor Knights of Columbus will be sponsoring an all-you-can-eat pancake and sausage family breakfast this Sunday, Jan. 31, at St. Boniface Catholic Church. They start serving at 9 a.m. and it will be pancakes with all the fixings. Donations are $5 for adults, $4.50 for seniors and $3 for children under 12. Proceeds benefit heartbeat of Ottawa County. Tom Ganley, a Cleveland auto dealer and candidate for the U.S. Senate, headlines a large group of candidates at a special Town Hall Meeting at 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 30, at Lyman Harbor in Sandusky. Also in attendance will be Jack Smith and Rich Iott, two candidates for the 9th District Congressional seat now held by Marcy Kaptur; Dave Yost, candidate for Ohio Attorney General; and a number of other independent candidates statewide office. The second annual Oak House Bowl-A-Thon will be held 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31, at Harbor Lanes in Port Clinton. In addition to bowling, there will be a Fish Bowl Auction, a 50/50 raffle, plenty of food and tons of fun. The difference you will make is STRIKING! Members of the St. Thomas Episcopal congregation will be welcomed at Peace Lutheran Church this Sunday for the traditional 5th Sunday Services. The two Port Clinton parishes share their pastor, Mike Weichers. Currently, Weichers leads worship at Peace at 9 a.m. and St. Thomas at 11 a.m. ELMS (Episcopal-Lutheran Ministry Sharing) members join forces for a single service at 11 a.m. in any month having five Sundays. This month, the service is at Peace with a potluck luncheon immediately following. There will be no 9 a.m. service at Peace Lutheran and no service at St. Thomas at 11 a.m. The Ottawa County Senior Activities Committee will hold a Work Session at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 3, at Ottawa County Senior Resources, 8200 W.
