Hubbard American Legion VILLA MARIA TERESA'S


American Legion Post 51 will hold its scheduled
meeting, weather permitting, on the 18th of February
at Post Headquarters. 132 N.Main Street, Hubbard.
KINDERGARTNERS
Meeting time is 7:30 PM and all veterans of any conflict
dating back to WWII to the present are invited to attend.
VISIT ST. ROSE SCHOOL
Come and enjoy a time of comeraderie and fellowship with
other vets. Veterans of peacetime service are also invited
to attend. Refrehments and beverages are always served
at the conclusion of each meeting.Hope to see you there..

ARE THERE EXCEPTIONS


TO MORAL LAWS?
An Anglican priest in England told his congregation that shop-
lifting is acceptable when a person is in desperate need and all
other legal sources of help have been exhausted. Is this appropriate
and reasonable advice? What is the right thing to do in such a
situation? Do extreme or emergency conditions ever justify tempo-
rarily setting aside our ethical principles and moral law? These and
other related questions will be the basis for a dinner and discussion
on Sunday, February 21at the First Presbyterian Church of Girard,
890 Churchill Road, Girard, Ohio. The supper begins at 5:00 and
the discussion begins at 6:00. The public is cordially invited to both
the dinner and discussion. For further information or questions, you
may contact the pastor at 330-505-1192.

A typical set up for the showing of spiders. Campfire Street Rodders weekend show.
Ernie Amabile, Turner and Amani Hrabowy discuss spiders.
The regular meeting of the township Trustees was held on
Feb. 8. It was busy with much on the agenda. The trustees re-
scinded the raises they had given to the administrators. They
passed the usual money back and forth. They will be seeking pro-
posals for IT Service and for fuel. A new resolution was passed
making it more difficult to harvest timber in the Township. Timber
has been an ongoing problem for residents. The township does not
have much authority to deal with it but it continues to try. Motion
for first reading for a 2 mil, 5 year levy to be placed on the ballot
for Capital Improvements. Park reservations are being taken now.
Better get in early. The Easter Bunny is scheduled to visit the town-
ship on Mar. 27 at the Admin. Bldg. Mark your calendars now.
This is a great event for the kids. There will be a Senior Watch
Meeting on Mar. 31. More details will follow. A gentleman from
the Campfire Street Rodders, a local car club asked for and was
given permission to use Churchill Park over the Memorial Day
weekend-Friday-Saturday and Sunday. Sounds like a great family
event. A letter was read from Gretchen Reed thanking all involved
for the wonderful outpouring of charity regarding the Blott Needy
Kids Project. Once again Liberty responded for its own. $267 was
received for the cans collected to be used for Liberty In Bloom.

Ashlyn Parks enjoys the Fest also.

RESPA RULE CHANGES

The Department of Housing and Urban Development


changes to the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act
(RESPA) went into full effect on January 1, 2010. The
rule change has far reaching implications for consumer
mortgage lending. The new Good Faith Estimate (GFE)
form that the lender must provide to the borrower is
intended by HUD to encourage and make it easier for the
borrower to shop for loans. HUD believes the new rule
will restore consumer confidence at this critical time in
the housing finance markets.
