The Tuscarawas County Chamber of Commerce is doing it's best to go green! Therefore, we have recently joined Recycle Rewards. The Chamber will be participating in a used printer cartridge and cell phone collection program. We are one of the many organizations actively collecting empty inkjet and laser printer cartridges as well as used cell phones from within our business community.

 

When your business is done with cartridges or when you purchase new cell phones, where do you put your used ones? BRING THEM TO THE CHAMBER so we can help the environment!

 

We would greatly appreciate your support. The recycling program we use will also send you free shipping boxes affixed with prepaid UPS labels. You just need to save the used cartridges and cell phones instead of throwing them away, pack them in the provided boxes and leave them at a UPS drop-off location.

 

To get started, simply register online as a "group supporter" at www.rrewards.com and enter the Tuscarawas County Chamber of Commerce's ID # 147043. You will receive the free boxes in a few days.

What's in the bag?

Nestled in the heart of Ohio's Amish country each HayCanvas bag begins in a local canvas shop and made exclusively for HayCanvas.  Is there Hay in the bag you might ask?  Not any, except the "Hay" of Cathy Hay, owner and founder, who values the talents of local men and women who have helped design and make each HayCanvas bag; assuring its uniqueness and quality while helping to maintain the livelihood of our community.  Every embellished bag is hand-hooped in our local bag studio to your specifications, making each HayCanvas bag truly "one-of-a-kind".  The lasting durability of our HayCanvas bags can be attributed to our commitment to using only the best "Duck" canvas.  But we have required more from our bag than just durability.  We carefully analyze how you, our customer, want to use the bag and then add the details to make it function just they way it should.  Then, we add an element that gives HayCanvas its unequaled look.  We add bright, fun patterned fabric, soft delicate pastels, traditional prints and plaids or muted small prints to create a style that speaks to you.  To finish off a HayCanvas bag select from  any one of our embellishment designs to give your bag that extra personal touch.   From functional custom totes for organizing, and clutter control to diaper bags and exclusive gift totes, your sure to find something for yourself or that hard to buy for person.  Stop in and lets create something together! 

 

 

 

HayCanvas is located in New Towne Mall in the Elder-Berman corridor.  Stop in and see them soon.  If you are looking for that perfect Easter Basket - look no further than HayCanvas and be sure to have it personalized for that special someone.

NEW PHILADELPHIA - Despite having over a foot of snow on the ground and flurries coming down, nearly 400 area residents showed up Saturday, February 13th to take advantage of Healthy Tusc's 1st Annual Winter Hike.  The Winter Hike was held at Historic Schoenbrunn Village from 11 AM - 1 PM and was co-sponsored by this year's Leadership Tusc class.  The route, tramped down Friday afternoon by members of Healthy Tusc lead organizations, started at the museum and wound it way up past the cemetery around the outer perimeter of the village to the church and headed back toward the museum.
 
Those in attendance were entertained by two singing groups located in the church and school buildings.  Claymont High School's Show Choir performed various songs from their new repertoire and a Very Large Quartet (VLQ) performed songs including crowd favorites "Heart of My Heart" and "Side by Side" in the church. 
 
Other activities included in the day's events were a healthy snack demonstration for kids sponsored by Leadership Tusc's current class, provided by Chris Kendle, RD, LD from the Tuscarawas County OSU Extension Office.  Participants were served bean soup and cornbread after completing the hike, they had the opportunity to sign up for door prizes and kids were provided with goodie bags to take home.  
 
"We started to second guess ourselves with the sheer volume of snow on the ground; we honestly considered rescheduling," stated Vickie Ionno, Director of Nursing, Tuscarawas County Health Department.  "But then we reminded ourselves that our goal was to show people they could get out during the winter months to exercise and it could be fun.  I think we accomplished that goal." 
 
"It was a great day!" exclaimed Tiffany Poland, Marketing Director for Twin City Hospital.  "It was wonderful to see families out exercising together.  Some families had young kids on sleds, pulling them along on behind them as they hiked.  Others brought their family dog to walk with them.  We are looking forward to next year and making it even better."
 
Healthy Tusc is a task force, made up of area non-profit organizations, that is working to improve the health and wellness of Tuscarawas County residents through programming, community awareness and advocacy aimed at reducing obesity.  The lead agencies in this group are the Tuscarawas County Health Department, Tuscarawas County YMCA, Tuscarawas County United Way, Twin City Hospital and Union Hospital.

Founded in 1967, the Zoar Community Association strives to ensure the preservation of the historical characteristics and heritage of the Village of Zoar, Ohio, and the surrounding area, including Northern Tuscarawas County. Effective January 4, 2010, the Zoar Community Association assumed management of Zoar Village State Memorial under contract from the Ohio Historical Society. 
 
Zoar Village was founded in 1817 by a group of about 200 German Separatists seeking escape from religious persecution in their homeland. Today, Zoar is a community of approximately 75 homes built from 1817 until the present. Many of the original homes have been preserved or restored. Find out more by visiting www.zca.org.
