         Blast from the Past:                                               Monitoring your Home
       Candlewood Lake has always been the place for                         while you are away
   its residents to find peace and solace after a long                Many Candlewood Lake Members live here with-in
   day. In a June 1993, Mansfield News Journals arti-            Candlewood for the warmer months and head south to
   cle Carolyn Deuschle said that “When I come home              warn1er clin1ates during winter. For those that close their
   from work, the place where all the days’ tensions             house and head south in the fall, a concern for some,
   seem to disappear is where I turn off Ohio J.9 and            is how to monitor our home for proper operation of the
   drive past the Candlewood Lake Sign”. Carolyn,                heating system and sump pump. For those who live here
   wasn’t the only Candlewood Lake resident to feel              year round, some of the same concerns may be relevant,
   that way. Lovingly known by its residents as Morrow           such as when away on vacation, or away for a day, or for a
   County’s best kept secret.                                    weekend.
       So how did Morrow County’s beloved best kept                  Today there are many options for home monitoring
   secret come to be? For that we have to rewind a               systems. There are many commercial companies that will

   was built by a developer, who unfortunately went              avenue can be expensive. One very reasonable alternative
   broke shortly after the completion of the lake. In the        is a “Smart Home Hub” system with additional sensors
   mid-70’s unwilling to depart with their beloved home          for temperature, moisture, glass breakage, door opening,
   the residents bought the whole development from               etc. For example, a current Samsung Smart Hub is about
   the Sheriff’s Auction and formed what we know as              $100.00. A smart hub connects to your home router and
   Candlewood Lake Association.                                  can send alerts to your cell phone and email address.
       So what draws residents to Candlewood Lake?               Add a water sensor for the area around your sump pump
   For that question you will receive many answers               (if present) for about $30. Add a temperature sensor for
