Symmes harvests Fallfest plan By Amanda Hopkins ahopkins@communitypress.com
In an effort to save money, Symmes Township is looking to combine efforts with the Cincinnati Horticultural Society for this year’s Fallfest. The Horticultural Society hosts a farm-themed festival on Friday and township officials said they would be willing to contribute money to the budget for the success of both festivals. Board of Trustees president Ken Bryant said he finds the festival “worthwhile� and that Bryant the township could contribute $1,500, roughly half of the proposed budget needed by the Horticultural Society to run the farm festival. The festival will be 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 2, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 3, at Symmes Park at 11600 Lebanon Road. Friday afternoon and night will be geared more toward elementary school children, with pie baking, meeting farm animals, spinning yarn and other activities. The trustees said that last year’s farm festival brought in several school groups on field trips from all over Cincinnati. This year, more schools including Symmes Elementary, are encouraged to participate in the event. Bryant asked for special invitations to schools that bring in students from Symmes Township. There will be no entry fee but participants will be charged for supplies for various activities for the Cincinnati Horticultural Society’s Farm Fest. For reservations for Farm Fest, visit www.cincyflowershow.com.

Businesses foster hometown atmosphere By Chuck Gibson
loveland@communitypress.com
Staying in business, especially during rough economic times, is all about keeping customers. The best way to do that is keep your customers happy. Community Press and Cincinnati.com readers named several Loveland businesses as their Readers’ Choice favorites in voting all across the Cincinnati area. “Oh wow,� Sandy Russell, assistant general manager at Paxton’s Grill said upon learning the popular trailside stop in Loveland was Readers’ Choice favorite bar and grill. Bob Roncker’s Running Spot was also Readers’ Choice No. 1 best in athletic shoes with several locations including Loveland Station. Tufts Schildmeyer Family Funeral Home and Cremation services was reader’s second favorite in the funeral home category and Loveland Greenhouse was second favorite in the greenhouse category too. If Readers’ Choice is about happy customers, what makes them so happy? “We just make it a friendly place for people to come in and have a good time,� Russell said. “They feel like family. We’re very community oriented. We just did the golf outing to benefit CancerFree Kids and we’re getting ready to do another benefit Friday. Our being involved in the community is a big part of it.� She said it’s where families go for homecoming too. In just a year, Roncker’s Running Spot at Loveland Station has fast become the spot where fami-

lies go for a t h l e t i c shoes. “We take the time to fit the shoe that will work for them,� said Joe Fung, manager at the Loveland Station Running Spot. “That’s probably the key to the Bob Roncker’s Running Spot experience. We try to find out their exercise routines; what they’re going to use the shoe for and try on three or four different shoes to see what will fit their foot the best.� Experienced runners come in looking for more than one pair of shoes and, depending on their training; Fung says they can talk technical with them. Talking is the key to a happy customer at Tufts Schildmeyer Family Funeral Home according to Larry Schildmeyer. He probably has the biggest challenge making customers happy when they’ve just lost a loved one. “We find ways for them to celebrate a life that’s been lived,� Schildmeyer said. “We listen to what their ideas are and incorporate them into a meaningful and personalized service. We not only do the traditional burial ceremonies, we also do cremation services. “Every single family that comes in the door; it’s structured to them. We sit down and talk, the more we talk, the more things develop. The big thing is the listening part.� Readers’ Choice was all about

Citizens, government work together to keep trail clean By Caitlin Varley loveland@communitypress.com

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources is responsible for keeping the Little Miami Scenic Trail clean. move it just because we’re here in town,” Carroll said. Martin Schickel, editor of historicloveland.com and publisher of the bike trail map, said that volunteers also help clean the trail.
0000353337
Bike trail maintenance is a group effort in Loveland. Officially, the responsibility to keep the Little Miami Scenic Trail free of branches and litter falls on the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Loveland City Manager Tom Carroll said. Carroll said that within Loveland city limits, though, the local government typically helps. He said it doesn’t make sense for Loveland not to do it, especially along Nisbet Park, which most people think is Loveland’s responsibility anyway. “If there’s litter or if there’s a tree that falls across the bike trail, we’ll pick it up and

“In some ways the trail is very well patrolled because it’s citizen-patrolled,” Schickel said. Schickel called citizens the “first line of defense” in keeping the trail clear. After the windstorm in September, volunteers cleared trees and brush. Schickel said there was no other way to get it done. A new group called Friends of the Little Miami State Park will formalize those volunteers, Schickel said. State parks in Ohio are clustered by region, meaning the parks are overseen on a regional basis, said Tim Carr, regional manager for the Cowan Lake region. The Cowan Lake region includes the Cowan Lake State Park, Caesar Creek State Park and Little Miami State Park. Carr said they are unable to patrol the entire 60 miles of the Little Miami State Park everyday, but someone patrols at least part of the park everyday. “We definitely are on that trail somewhere in some stretch of it for some part of the day seven days a week,” Carr said. Carr said ODNR also does maintenance on the trail, like any other park. Individuals can call the Little Miami State Park office to report a branch or other problem with the trail. The number is 897-3055. The office is not open on weekends so people can call the Warren County Communications center, which will contact one of ODNR’s officers.

Single family home permits up in Miami By Mary Dannemiller mdannemiller@communitypress.com
Despite a struggling economy and depressed housing sales, Miami Township has issued more single family home permits this year than it had at this point last year. Township Administrator Larry Fronk said the township issued 13 permits in June and has issued 27 for the year, compared to the 23 it issued from January to June 2008. “Things have picked up considerably in one month and this year,” Fronk said. “I don’t really know why, but I’m hoping it’s a positive sign that things are starting to turn around.” Most of the permits were issued for homes in the
Reserves of Greycliffs and White Gate Farms subdivisions which range in price from $200,000 to Fronk $250,000, Fronk said. Trustee Mary Makley Wolff said she was happy permits were up and that development and growth are important for the economic health of the township. “I think it’s encouraging to see some growth starting back in the township,” she said. “People worry about growing too much and too fast, but there’s also a danger in not growing at all which is equally bad for a
community. You want to have a sustained, consistent growth that doesn’t overwhelm the infrastructure.” Fronk also said builders were likely drawn to Miami Township for a myriad of reasons, ranging from its schools to its proximity to Cincinnati. “We have a great school system and quality services are provided to residents,” Wolff said. “This is a great place to work and play.” Though the jump in permits is a good sign, Fronk and Wolff both said they were cautiously optimistic about whether the number would continue to climb. “I think it’s too early to tell,” Fronk said. “June was quite a month, but we’re going to have to wait and see.”
Motorcycle ride to benefit cancer effort Community Press Staff Report
Connie Jewell said the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society has done a lot for her and her daughter, who was diagnosed with leukemia in 2006. So, in order to give something back, she is organizing a benefit motorcycle ride Saturday, Aug. 29, at Shady O’Grady’s Pub on Loveland-Madeira Road in Symmes Township. Registration for the ride
will be 10-11:30 a.m., with the riders leaving at noon. After a ride of about two hours, the riders will return to the pub where there will be food, music, door prizes and a 50/50 drawing. All proceeds will benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walkathon Sept. 24 at Sawyer Point. Shady O’Grady’s also will donate 10 percent of its sales for the day to the
cause. Jewell, who lives in Owensville, said she lost her job in February and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society has helped pay for medical insurance for her daughter. She said her daughter, Danielle Drewry, 23, of Withamsville is in remission. The daughter attends school at Cincinnati State College and works at a restaurant.

Logan Sand speaks with his music By Chuck Gibson loveland@communitypress.com
Logan Sand wrote, performed, produced and sold his first CD at the tender age of 15. Sales of “Like It or Not� have been moderately successful at various sites on the Internet. The 18-yearold singer/songwriter and pianist already has reviewers comparing him to Grammy award-winner and showman, Elton John. “What you hear in his music is him,� said Sean Miller, show choir director at the middle school and high school in Loveland. “He’s incredibly musical.� Miller convinced Sand to join the show choir as a seventh-grade student at
Loveland M i d d l e School. He said private piano lessons from Annette W o o d Sand formed the foundation of his love for music, but show choir introduced him to performance. “Sean Miller is a great man,� said Sand, recalling the influence of his middle school teacher. “He is one of my biggest inspirations.� The crowd kept him going when nerves nearly got the best of him during his first show choir performance. From that quiet nervous student, Miller watched Sand “explode� into an accomplished performer by

She was really impressed by the fact he did it all himself and was able to get it on line for sale. “We went on and ordered a song,� she said. “We downloaded ‘Melancholy Day’ and the kids loved it. It was just so cool.� One day her 12-year-old daughter, Lauren wrote a song with her friend Taylor. She thought it was pretty good and immediately thought Logan could help them arrange it. They haven’t recorded a final version yet, but he worked with them and helped them learn about tempo and arranging. “How fun for a 12-yearold,� Kiley said. “They wrote the words and had the tune. It was just a great project.� Sand has been busy in the studio finishing up his own album project. He hasn’t titled it yet, but the songs and music will reflect a lot of his observations of people. One more way he will express his sincere love for people, life and the good the extraordinary good things happening everyday. Talking with him about the path that revealed his musical talent, Sand makes it clear he has enjoyed the journey. His journey placed him on local stages like The Works restaurant, middle school and high school stages and on the world landscape via the internet. His songs, music and style have given him a voice to speak to the world all around him. “He’s a student you’re happy to say you had in class,� Miller said. “He does it because he loves it.�

White Pillars renovation set to begin By Jeanne Houck jhouck@communitypress.com
Newly named curators of the White Pillars Homestead in Loveland should begin their renovation work within the month. Loveland City Council July 28 approved an ordinance – effective in 30 days – approving a contract that will allow Jeffrey and Rochelle Dean to live in the 1850s homestead on Founders Lane rent-free.

the time he graduated from Loveland high school. “He’s more comfortable with his music,� Miller said. “He’s taken something he enjoys; using his talent as a venue to express himself.� Freshmen year in high school is a typically tough time of transition for every kid. Sand says it was true for him too. Bus rides with the middle school show choir gave him quiet time to express his emotions and thoughts in a journal. He also met Rick Brantley, a worship musician at the Vineyard Community Church during that time. “Rick is another big inspiration,� Sand said. “We talked about song order and he encouraged me to write.� Sand blossomed into a worship music leader performing Christian worship music at the church in TriCounty. He was a high school freshman feeling all the normal teen peer pressure and found songwriting was a way to express himself. “Whatever a teen has on their heart,� Sand said. “They should enjoy it.� He has enjoyed his journey from quiet middle school youth to tentative teen and maturing young man about to enter college. He impressed some people along the way. Sarah Kiley first heard him perform in the orchestra pit at a middle school play. “He really made an impression,� Kiley said. “I told him afterward how much the music added to the show.� A week later she saw him at a high school show choir performance. When she talked to him then, he
In exchange, the Deans will restore the house at a cost of at least $3,000 in materials. The city will contribute $50,000 toward the Deans’ construction of a kitchen and a two-car carriage house. Jeffrey Dean owns his own remodeling contractor company, Artisan Construction. He and his wife, who is an English teacher at Indian Hill Middle School, will move from their home in Union Township.
The ordinance approved included one recently negotiated clause: the Deans will pay for a $75,000 performance bond that will allow the city to complete construction of the kitchen and carriage house if the couple is unable to finish the project. Also July 28, Loveland City Council voted 4 to 2 to join the Regional Council of Governments and pay the organization’s Regional Income Tax Agency (RITA)
about $120,000 to $130,000 annually to collect Loveland income taxes. City administrators expect the move will save Loveland about $85,000 a year beginning in 2011. Savings will come from reduced costs in collecting income taxes and associated changes in the city’s Finance Department, they say. Taxpayers will file their city income tax returns and payments directly to the Regional Income Tax Agency, beginning in January. The agency got mixed reviews when administrators contacted cities that use or formerly used it. City Manager Tom Carroll is confident the Regional Income Agency will be a good thing for Loveland – especially because the city will retain a local tax clerk to work with the agency and help local taxpayers with questions. “The analysis from other cities that have utilized RITA is that it is critical for a local income-tax employee to be retained to track and update new residents – particularly renters – as well as provide local enforcement,� Carroll said. Voting in favor of contracting with the tax agency were Mayor Rob Weisgerber, Vice Mayor David Bednar and councilmen Mark Fitzgerald and Brent Zuch. Councilmen Paul Elliott and Todd Osborne voted no. Councilman Joe Schickel was absent.

Where do our crises come from?
Everyone lives a drama. We try to be playwright and write the script to our lives. But it never works out that way. There are twists and turns both good and bad, unexpected surprises, disappointments and losses and challenging situations. And there are crises sprinkled throughout. Some of them can rock us to our toes. Where do our crises come from? I don’t accept the idea that God causes suffering and crises. In this imperfect world, they come along like hurricanes, lightening strikes causing forest fires, and volcanic eruptions. I agree with the analysis of various crises expressed by author Sue Monk Kidd. She says that the crises of life come mainly from three sources: developmental transitions, intrusive events, and internal uprisings.
Developmental transitions occur naturally in everyone’s life. We move from stage to stage though after awhile we hate the changing. Think of some of our changing stages: birth, beginning school, puberty, moving away from home, risking and forming relationships, choosing a career, entering the work force, and of course, marriage. Add to these raising children, dealing with midlife, the empty nest, retiring, losing a loved person, etc. Each occurrence usually brings varying degrees of crisis. They cause turmoil and rattle our illusion of control. There is a tug toward growth but a stronger tug to stay where we are. Intrusive events are a second source of life crises. Too many to number, they include accidents, serious illness, a loved person’s
death, natural catastrophes, a miscarriage, a terminated relationship, losing our job, a wayward child, dashed dreams, etc. Though harsh on us, crises are also doorways. How we handle them changes us into bitter or better persons. The greatest factor affecting our lives for good or ill is the attitude we take in the face of things we cannot change. Internal uprisings are the third source of personal crises. Their coming is usually subtle and unspecified. We may begin to notice a vague sense of restlessness, emptiness, or a tinge of depression that hangs on. There may be spiritual doubts, insomnia, blossoming addictions, heightened anxiety, etc. We try to explain them by the terminology of today – stress, burnout, exhaustion.
Screenings coming to Loveland Residents living in and around the Loveland community can be screened to reduce their risk of having a stroke or bone fracture. The River Hills Christian Church will host Life Line Screening Friday, Aug. 28. The church is at 6300 Price Road in Loveland. Appointments will begin at 9 a.m. Four key points every person needs to know: • Stroke is the third leading cause of death and a leading cause of permanent disability. • Eighty percent of stroke victims had no
apparent warning signs prior to their stroke. • Preventive ultrasound screenings can help you avoid a stroke. • Screenings are fast, noninvasive, painless, affordable and convenient. Screenings identify potential cardiovascular conditions such as blocked arteries and irregular heart rhythm, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and hardening of the arteries in the legs, which is a strong predictor of heart disease. A bone density screening to assess osteoporosis risk is also offered and is
appropriate for both men and women. Packages start at $139. All five screenings take 60 minutes to 90 minutes to complete. For more information regarding the screenings or to schedule an appointment, call 1-877-2371287 or visit www.lifelinescreening.com. Registration is required. Life Line Screening was established in 1993, and has since become the nation’s leading provider of preventive screenings.
From where do these come? There is a life-force within us straining toward wholeness. What do we think pulls us through all the stages of growth and development in our lives? This life-force has its own ways of getting our attention when healthy development is stymied or stuck. Creating some sort of inner crises in us is its usual technique. Typically we only make significant changes when we hurt. Such crises are meant to nudge us toward some doorway we need to pass through. The trouble is, we never think of a crisis in this way. We just pour another drink, get busy, or use our cell phone. A crises is always considered as something wrong, not something potentially helpful. Such thinking keeps us from looking for the new doorway.

Mastering the art of salmon grilling
With all the hype about the movie “Julie & Julia,” anyone who has what we call a “ J u l i a C h i l d ” story is sharing it. So today Rita I’m sharHeikenfeld ing mine. I was Rita’s kitchen u n d e r deadline for this column and the subject was cooking with wine. On a whim, I called Julia and, of course, she was “out” but the secretary said she’d give her the message. “OK,” I thought, “I’ll never hear.” About a half hour later the phone rang and my husband, Frank, answered and said the call was for me. When I asked him who it was he simply said “some elderly lady.” Well, it wouldn’t have mattered if it were a young lady; I was under deadline and had no time to chitchat. When I picked up the phone and said hello, the voice that said hello back was … Julia’s! I almost dropped the phone. She was so nice, answered every question, and then just asked about
my family and me. We talked for a total of 30 minutes, 10 of which was professional and the rest was personal. A n d guess what? She even sent me a signed thank you note. So that’s my Julia story and Child that’s why she was so loved and that’s why my copy of her book “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” is dogeared with use.

Tips from Rita on keeping kids hydrated
Perfectly grilled salmon
The 70-30 rule applies to any seafood on the grill. Have the grill hot, lightly brush both sides of the fish with oil, and start grilling skin side up with the grill closed as much as possible. (Or just put a disposable pan over the fish). Leave it alone until about 70 percent of the fish is done on the first side. You’ll know it by the looks and also if it will release easily. This allows the fish to form a nice crust. Turn it and finish cooking. The rule seven to 10 minutes per inch of thickness works

• So important especially during this hot weather when they’re in sports, since a child’s body takes longer to adjust to heat and humidity. • Kids produce more body heat but don’t sweat as much as adults so in hot weather they are at increased risk for dehydration. • In the body, water works as a shock absorber protecting joints. • Cold water is absorbed
best and kids will drink more if it’s cold. • Make a homemade power drink. Dilute a drink that contains 100 percent Vitamin C by using at least twice the water recommended on the package.

Ohio courts bound to consider victim’s rights
Criminal defendants have many well known constitutional rights. These include the right to counsel, due process and speedy trial. Victims of crime in Ohio also have important legal rights. Police, prosecutors, judges and correction officials have a legal duty to consider the victim’s rights. Within a reasonable amount of time after an offender’s arrest, the police must notify the victim of the offender’s arrest, the offender’s name and whether the offender is eligible for pre-trial release. The prosecutor in the case, to the extent practicable, must confer with the victim before agreeing to
a plea bargain or dismissing any charges. Upon the victim’s request, the prosecutor must inform the victim of the date, time and place of any scheduled Judge Brad proceeding in the Greenberg case.

What do you expect from the Bengals this season? “Well I just finished watching ‘Hard Knocks’ on HBO which is featuring the Bengals. HBO did a great job, I really enjoyed it and was enthused about the upcoming season until they showed the segment in which Mike Brown was sharing his ideas with the coaches: ‘How about if we move the defensive end to tight end.’ “Mike is still micro-managing and that is not encouraging.” B.M. “I expect them to waste our time and money as usual.” R.S.H. “I expect the usual from these guys; absolutely nothing ... and I have never been disappointed!” J.G. “What do I expect ... or what do I hope?!! :-) “Expect: sadly, another losing season. “Hope: undefeated, Superbowlbound.” J.K. “This is what I’d like to see: a team that plays to their skill potential, obeys the law off the field, does good work in the community and earns the loyalty and esteem of the fans. “Here’s what we will probably see: a team that seldom wins, players charged with crimes and no one caring about the community. I hope I’m very wrong.” E.E.C. “Time tells all and over the past few years the Bengals have proven that we should expect nothing from them this year. “Until the Brown family – who know little about professional football and much about hijacking the population of Hamilton County into paying for a beautiful new stadium designed for a real franchise – is gone forever, and until our ‘team’ is comprised of dedicated, hard-working players instead of criminals and self-serving egoists then we should expect nothing more than the same old Bungles.” “Oh how I long for the days of Ken Anderson, Cris Collinsworth, Mike Reid and Anthony Munoz – just to a name a few of the greats – when we were occasionally con-

I guess that’s part of the price you pay for getting older. “But if our team can spark any interest to match the excitement that I felt back in 1982, when the Bengals met the SF 49’ers in the Super Bowl (losing 21 to 26), I’ll be pleased. “I will never forget that game. I had been running for about two years, and did my four miles that morning, coming back with icicles hanging from my eyebrows under my hood! “And I will probably never again be so emotionally involved as I was when I went out on our front porch, after the game was lost to SF, and venting my rage at the open air! What a game that was!” B.B.

How you prepare for H1N1 As H1N1 flu continues to circulate both locally and nationally, Hamilton County Public Health is working to prepare for vaccine distribution as well as possible widespread illness this fall. Since 2001, public health agencies have been working hard to ensure we are prepared to handle emergency situations that might arise from natural disasters, terrorist attacks or disease pandemics. While governments and public health agencies are hard at work, there are things everyone can – and should – do to stay healthy. H1N1 virus seems to spread the same way seasonal flu spreads: Mainly from person to person through coughing or sneezing by people with flu. Sometimes people may become infected by touching something with flu viruses on it and then touching their mouth or nose. That’s why practicing proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette is critical: • Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. If soap and water are not near by, use an alcohol-based hand cleaner. • Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If a tissue is not available, use the inside of your elbow to cover your cough or sneeze, not your hands. • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way. • Try to avoid close contact with sick people. Try to stay six feet away from people who are coughing or sneezing. • If you are sick, you should stay home until you are fever-free, without the use of fever-reducing
medicine, for at least 24 hours. As we anticipate H1N1 and regular flu season, there are some additional ways to protect yourself and help stop the spread of disease in our community.
Tim Ingram Community Press guest columnist Get informed
This is a rapidly changing situation. Get updated information at www.hamiltoncountyhealth.com and www. cdc.gov/h1n1flu regularly.
Get vaccinated
Vaccines are the most powerful public health tool for control of flu and everyone should consider receiving the H1N1 vaccine, upon availability. People that are at high risk for illness and therefore are a priority to receive the H1N1 vaccine include: • Pregnant women • People who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age • Health care and emergency services personnel • People between the ages of 6 months through 24 years of age • People ages 25 through 64 years with chronic health disorders or weakened immune systems Don’t forget about the seasonal flu vaccine! There is a lot of discussion about H1N1 flu, but the usual seasonal flu viruses are still expected to cause illness this fall and winter. While it won’t protect you against H1N1 flu, the single best
HERALD
way to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot each fall. By getting a flu shot, you ensure that you will stay healthy and that you will not spread the flu to those who are at high risk for serious flu complications, such as the elderly, young children and people with certain health conditions.
Parents
• Review proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette with your children now – don’t wait until they get sick. • Be prepared in case you get sick and need to stay home for a week or so; a supply of over-thecounter medicines, alcohol-based hand rubs, tissues and other related items could be useful and help avoid the need to make trips out in public while you are sick and contagious. • Make plans for emergency child care in case your child is ill and unable to attend school.
Businesses
• Discuss leniency for sick days to accommodate parents that may need to stay home with sick children. • Review business continuity plans and think about what your organization will do if there are many employees out sick.
Churches
• Encourage members to cover their coughs and sneezes appropriately. • Hang up informational posters or distribute educational flyers. Tim Ingram is the commissioner of Hamilton County Public Health.

Loveland High School’s new stadium scorebard was paid for by sponsors.
New scoreboard
The new Loveland High School stadium scoreboard is a gift from local businesses. The scoreboard is a state of the art LED digit display with custom, full color, professionally designed ads above and below. A dedication night was recently conducted to honor the nine sponsors who helped provide the scoreboard at no cost to the school. The scoreboard project comes from the efforts of Franklin, Ohio based Side Effects Inc. Side Effects has worked with over 500 high schools nationwide. A few years ago, they installed a scrolling sign cabinet in the gymnasium at Loveland High School. The school receives revenue as a result of the sponsor’s ads. Side Effects’ marketing team is responsible for renewing and adding sponsors which in turn will generate revenue for the sports programs at the school. These sponsors were recognized at the Meet the Teams Night: The businesses recognized were General Electric Credit Union; Loveland Dairy Whip; Sibcy Cline RealtorsKeli Williams; Oral & Facial Surgery Associates Inc.; University Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine; Ward’s Corner Chiropractic; Eric W. Hickman, DDS, MS; Oasis Golf Club & Conference Center; Jarvis Global Investments LLC.

High school girls’ tennis is back in season and several local teams should challenge for league titles.
Loveland
The Loveland High School girls’ tennis team won the FAVC for the second consecutive season in 2008 and will look for a three-peat in 2009. The Tigers return a number of talented players and will have seven seniors on the roster. Loveland returns Emily Schwarberg, Olivia Reaney, Catherine Wells, Kirsten Baker, Chandler Smith, Tara Main and Natalie Huezo. Cara Genbauff is a new player that could develop into a key contributor for the Tigers. “We have a lot of returning players from last year and depth is our biggest strength,” head coach Shawn Barone said.
CHCA
The Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy girls’ tennis team had a remarkable season in 2008. The Eagles were undefeated until falling in the state finals. CHCA returns three starters from that team but repeating that level of success could be challenging. “Losing only one match and beating every Division I team we played, for them to

Loveland volleyball looks for strong ’09 By Mark Chalifoux mchalifoux@communitypress.com
Volleyball is back in season for high school girls and several local teams could be poised for strong seasons. CHCA, MND and Ursuline all look to have competitive teams this season.
Loveland
The Loveland High School volleyball team finished second in the FAVC in 2008 and returns a trio of key starters from that team. Sam Burpee, Joanna Myaka and Ashley Dundees will be the standouts for the Tigers in 2009. Head coach Mary Luning said Katie Jarvis is a player to watch as well and the team’s goals are to win more games and win the FAVC. “We have some inexperienced players since we graduated some good players, but they work hard and look pretty good,” Luning said. “Our senior leadership will be really important, especially for the younger players.” The FAVC slate shouldn’t be an easy one for Loveland as Harrison, Anderson and Glen Este could all be tough match-ups and Kings and Turpin both have talented squads. “Sam, Joanna and Ashley will be our biggest strength,” Luning said. “They demand a lot of respect and work from the underclassmen and everything is coming together pretty well.”
CHCA
The Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy volleyball team finished 13-6 in 2008 and will aim for a league championship in 2009 on the strength of several returning players. The Eagles return seniors Taylor Dixon, Mallory Rabold, Emily McDonnell, Tessa Michels and Alicia Grant. Sydney Zimmerman and Tara Hodge are also returning players. Sophomore Morgan Prescott and junior Alex Jeffers will be key additions to the team. “They have played together for several years, especially those seniors, and that leadership is our strength,” head coach Shana Stull said. “They can trust each other and the communication on the court is great. It’s probably the strongest team I’ve had here,” she said.
Ursuline Academy
Ursuline’s first loss of the 2008 season came in heartbreaking fashion as the Lions fell during the Division I State Championship finals to the 29-0 squad from Olmsted Falls, 3-1 (39-37, 16-25, 25-21, 2512). Ursuline finished at 28-1 as Ohio’s Division I runnerup while also posting a 100 conference record to win a Girls’ Greater Catholic League Scarlet Division title. But a quintet of starters return for head coach Jeni Case and the Lions aim to

Case was named as the GGCL Scarlet Division Coach of the Year in 2008. Ursuline’s returning starters include Dani Reinert, Kori Moster, Jade Henderson, Christina Beer and Anna Prickel. Reinert racked up 904 assists last fall and was named to the first team of the All GGCL Scarlet Division squad last fall. She also had 34 aces to finish second in the divsion. Mount Notre Dame’s Kelly Morrissey was the next best GGCL Scarlet Divison player in the assist category while finishing well behind Reinert at 616
assists. Henderson led the GGCL Scarlet Division with 306 kills in 2008. Moster led the division with 607 digs while finishing 80 digs ahead of Seton’s Danielle Beckenhaupt’s total of 527 digs. Prickel (236 digs) and Henderson (235 digs) were also defensive standouts in 2008.
Mount Notre Dame
Joe Burke has been coaching at Mount Notre Dame for 10 years and takes over the varsity volleyball team this season, replacing former head coach Donna Mechley. The Cougars return some strong talent, including sen-
ior Marissa Otto, who was in the top 10 in the GGCL in kills in 2008. MND also returns seniors Kate Eckels and Lauran and Megan Rohlfs. The team has some promising new players in sophomore Kelsey Wolf and juniors Megan Kavanaugh and Kathleen Donnellon. “The team is looking to continue the tradition of success Mount Notre Dame has had in recent years and the 2009 Cougars will be a defensive oriented team that will use a very balanced offensive attack,” Burke said. “The team will be returning a very good balance of experienced seniors along with some promising underclassmen.”

Lajcak said this was the most successful garden tour in the three years they’ve done it. Proceeds from the tour go to benefit local organizations. This year the committee was able to present two checks for $450 each to Lovekand Interfaith Effort food pantry and the Loveland Historical Society Museum. More at: www.lovelandgardentour.com.

VFW offers reward following vandalism
Registration begins for Spin for the Cure Registration has officially begun for Cincinnati’s fourth annual Spin for the Cure. The event, founded by Spinning Instructor Vicki Magliano in 2006, benefits the Susan G. Komen Foundation of Greater Cincinnati and will be held Saturday, Oct. 10, at Xavier University’s Cintas Center. Since the start of the event, Spin for the Cure has elevated awareness and raised money to benefit cancer victims. In 2008, this great cause raised $20,000 for the foundation in hopes of aiding cancerrelated causes and research. Spinning will begin promptly at 9 a.m. and run until 1 p.m. The four-hour ride will include instruction from three Spinning Master Instructors who will guide the event. This year, three breast cancer survivors will be featured each month leading up to the event. Heather Ray of Symmes Township,
Angie Knoechel from Mason and Karen Woodworth from Anderson Township will share their personal cancer-survival stories in a feature on the event’s Web site, www.spinforthecurecincinnati.com. Magliano of Milford originally began the event when two of her close friends were diagnosed with breast cancer. “Taking action now by raising awareness of breast cancer may save lives in the future,� said Magliano. “Virtually anyone can complete the spinning event at their own pace, and everyone has fun while they ride to the music. Knowing that Spin for the Cure helps those in need is comforting and fulfilling at the same time.� For more information, visit www.spinforthecurecincinnati.com. You can also follow on Facebook, Spin for the Cure Cincinnati, or Twitter @spin4curecincy.

Jerry Rotella, Chuck Rasch, Bill Eckhoff and Kevin Manley – the CancerFree Kids team on the green at hole No. 5.
Bill Eckhoff, playing for the CancerFree Kids team, readies to putt on their first hole of the day.
It was tons of fun in the sun at Paxton’s fourth annual golf outing Aug. 15. More than 130 golfers and 34 teams took aim at cash and prizes with hole-in-one challenges, split the pot and beat the pro during the 18-hole four man, best ball scramble at Hickory Woods Golf Course. They even dropped 1,000 golf balls from the ladder of a fire truck. Paxton’s Grill teamed up with CancerFree Kids for the third consecutive year to take aim at raising $10,000 to help fund pediatric cancer research. Paxton’s general manager Ralph Dunnigan expressed confidence that they achieved the goal of raising $10,000 this year (compared to $3,500 in 2008), but the final total is still not available. Also: • 17 under par was the winning score. • Ball drop winners Todd Jordan, Amy Bucher and Nancy Overdeck split the $1,000 prize for a ball landing in the hole. Laura Clark was the $500 winner when her ball landed closest to the hole and Ryan Cogan collected $250 for his ball landing furthest from the hole. • Nobody sunk a hole-in-one at any of the hole-in-one challenge holes. • One golfer beat the pro on No. 6 and he donated his $40 winnings to CancerFree Kids.
Angel Borger and Gwen Pietzuch measure Ed Miller’s “closest to the pin” shot on the fourth hole. A hole-in-one would win a brand new 2010 Ford Mustang.

Contestants paid $5 per ball for a chance to win $1,000, for in the hole, $500 for nearest the hole and $250 for furthest from the hole. All proceeds went to CancerFree Kids.

The Doolin House Bed & Breakfast
Somerset, Kentucky’s Premiere Inn Located Just Minutes from Lake Cumberland
There is a joke among friends here, “It’s a Phoenix that has risen from the ashes. ”When Charles and Allison Hahn Sobieck purchased the property at 502 North Main Street (in Somerset, Kentucky), there was a lot of work to be done, to say the least. With the vision of a B & B and a home in ruins, there were little choices. The dilapidated structure was removed, then reconstructed as it had been in the 1850’s. It’s a brand new home. A bit of an unusual concept for a bed and breakfast. “We reconstructed the home from scratch. This gave us the benefit of designing every amenity possible along the way, ”said Allison Sobieck, owner. Every room is equipped with many amenities you don’t often find in a traditional bed and breakfast, but rather a fine hotel. Every room has a full sized closet with a pair of micro-fiber robes hanging in them, 400- count Egyptian cotton sheets, cable TV with DVD players, queen sized beds, and a host of other things. For instance, 2 rooms have gas fireplaces and 3 rooms have whirlpool tubs. We even offer many add on amenities such as massage, dinner, flowers, etc…

The rooms are only half of the reason to come to The Doolin House. Owners Charles and Allison just happen to both be chefs. Some of the breakfast specialties include Caramel Banana French Toast and Southern Eggs Benedict (2 fried green tomatoes topped with 2 slices of smoked bacon, 2 eggs over easy and Hollandaise). Chuck is usually in charge of breakfast and tries to do new and different things every day. Chef Chuck pointed out, “It’s fun to experiment with breakfast. It’s the one meal that encompasses all foods. It’s perfectly acceptable to see smoked salmon or a pork cutlet at the breakfast table. ”For those in no rush to rise and shine, breakfast in bed is served at no additional charge. When you need a weekend get away that’s not too far from home or you are planning your summer vacation to beautiful Lake Cumberland, remember that The Doolin House Bed and Breakfast is only a phone call away.
