Mikaela Bush Ziegler seems to have mastered juggling her many interests. A teacher at Madison Local Schools in Mansfield, she enjoys renovating the Huntington Township farmhouse she and her husband recently moved into. As if that wasn’t enough to fill her spare time, she’s also a successful small business owner, operating Bear Claw Cheesecake Co. from her home.

Ziegler began Bear Claw Cheesecake, a USDA-certified home bakery, two and a half years ago on her 22nd birthday, combining her love of baking with the entrepreneurial spirit she’s had since she was a child. 

In Ohio, weather-related outages occur in every season. To make matters worse, a variety of other problems, ranging from curious critters to human errors, often cause power outages as well.

The new rate schedule for Lorain-Medina Rural Electric Cooperative went into effect Jan. 1 and will be reflected on members’ February bills. 
The difference between on-peak and off-peak electric generation charges will increase from 3.5 cents to 4 
cents per kWh. 

For the 35th consecutive year, the Lorain-Medina Rural Electric Cooperative Board of Trustees is refunding more than $1.4 million in patronage capital credits to more than 19,100 current and former members. Most members will see the “Capital Credits Refund” as a credit on their monthly electric bill. If your refund exceeds $100, a check will be mailed later this month.
