David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Middle schools combine girl’s Jr. Hi Basketball

Conneaut School Board members voted to combine the junior high middle school 7th and 8th grade girl’s basketball programs effective immediately as the fall sports season was ready to begin when school directors met Wed., Aug. 9.

The immediate reason for the combination - Conneaut Lake joining the Conneaut Valley team - was a lack of coaches for the CL team and the fact the fall sports season was beginning Monday, Aug. 14.

Despite efforts to recruit coaches - advertising and asking - no potential coaches stepped forward with Conneaut School directors wanting to still have a way for the Conneaut Lake girls to play.

Plans are being made to bus the Lake girls to Valley at the end of the school day - and during pre-season practice times from Lake Middle to Valley, and when games are scheduled during the season.
