Safety Town more than mini cars Springdale chief, sons, among ‘graduates’ of program By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com

Jon Mathis’s favorite part of Safety Town was the little cars. Same for his brother and dad. Same for most kids who attend the program.
Under the hood
Though Glendale had to cancel its Classic Car and Motorcycle Show, a few models showed up for a handful of visitors to the Village Square. The annual display of vintage vehicles had attracted about two dozen preregistrations, which officials said would be held for next year or refunded. SEE LIFE, B1

Springdale Police Chief Michael Mathis, center, flips through a photo album with his sons, Jon, left, and Alex. All three attended Safety Town.
The buildings have been repainted, and the cars have been replaced, but for the past five decades, the Safety Town message has stayed the same. The Springdale program that teaches preschoolers the fundamentals of street and bicycle safety is celebrating its 50th anniversary this summer. Among its alumni are two generations of the Mathis family. Police Chief Michael Mathis is a 1967 graduate of the program. He recalls learning about road signs and crossing the street safely when he was 5 years old. “I remember the pedal cars,” he said of his favorite part. It was the same for his two sons, Jon and Alex, who also attended Safety Town. “It was the little bikes,” John, now 19, said. “That was the part everyone looked forward to.” He remembers lessons taught that week in 1997, as well. Jon, who ran cross country at Roger Bacon High School, used the information to stay safe during training runs. “They said to look both ways when crossing the street,” he recalled. “I still always look, especially when running in the road.” For Alex, now 17, the bikes

Splash of advice for sweltering summer temps By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com
As temperatures shoot into the 90s, and spots of rain add to the humidity, staying cool has been harder but more crucial. It poses challenges to those who work outside, and lures vacationers to community pools. “We have been very crowded,” said Linda Reynolds, who runs the pool at the Sharonville Community Center. “When its very hot, we have to turn the chemicals up,” she said of the extra measures needed during the extreme weather, because the sun’s ultraviolet rays deteriorate the chlorine. “I also turn on the play features early, before the pool opens,” she said of features such as the water slide. “That’s because moving water cools the (rest of the pool) water down. “We add fresh, cool water every day, because it evaporates and is splashed out of the pool.” Reynolds said a cooler of fresh water is also available for drinking all day long during heat emergencies. “We don’t want people to
dehydrate,” she said. That’s also a concern for firefighters as they respond to emergencies, Wyoming Fire Chief Robert Rielage said. “Firefighters assist in extinguishment, but our medics specialize in firefighter rehabilitation,” he said. “In early June with the prediction of high heat this summer, we also enhanced the equipment we carry on our medic units. “We purchased two pop up tents, several folding chairs and carry several cases of water on the medic units as well as our fire equipment. “Firefighter rehabilitation is far more than just hydration,” the chief said. “Once out of the fight, a firefighter must have vital signs checked, and now we monitor for carbon monoxide levels as well. “Only after they are cooled down, and have vital signs in an acceptable range, will they be rotated back into the firefight. “We also try to prevent issues by reminding firefighters that they continually need to hydrate themselves during the day, not just during or after an event.”

Sharonville residents cool off at the Community Center pool on a sweltering day of temperatures in the 90s.
Stay cool out there Sharonville Assistant Fire Chief Kirk Mousa offered tips for staying cool in the extreme heat: • It is best to work outside only in the early morning or later in the evening. The sun’s rays are strongest from noon to 4 p.m., so plan accordingly for outdoor activities. • Drink plenty of fluids, primarily water, because sugary beverages or alcoholic ones can actually cause dehydration. • Stay in the shade or the air conditioning, and avoid overexertion. • If you must work outside or in a warm environment, keep water handy and drink it often.

• Take breaks to cool off. • If you become weak, cramp, develop a headache, nausea, or feel faint, move to a cool environment and drink cool water. • Use the air conditioning and fans, and if you do not have these, go somewhere that does during the day. • Check on the elderly often and watch out for children. As the temperature and the humidity rise, the air feels thick. This is water vapor in the air, and the higher the humidity, the slower sweat evaporates, which means the body’s natural cooling mechanisms work less efficiently.

lured him to the program held outside Tri-County Mall. “I remember the little bikes,” he said, “and the hand signals for turning. “After I graduated, I practiced the hand signals when riding my bike.” As they looked through a photo album of pictures from the boys’ Safety Town sessions, Mathis said that as a parent, he felt it was an important resource. “If it helps your kids and makes them safer, you should grab hold of it,” he said. As police chief, he likes the perspective it gives to young children. “It creates an early image that law enforcement officials are friendly figures,” Mathis said. “It gives a positive perception. “We’re a resource to help parents present this message.” Mathis recalled that his week at Safety Town in 1967 left an impression on him as a 5-year-old. “I liked it a lot, and wanted to do it again,” he said. “But my mom wouldn’t let me. “When something is fun,

SPRINGDALE NAZARENE CHURCH
Helping their neighbors in Alabama An imposing portrait of a Peruvian Boras Indian hangs from a wall in Rob Westerman’s office. But, I get ahead of myself, because before we talk about Peru, we must make a stop in Alabama. Rob is the outreach pastor at the Springdale Nazarene Church. Joanie Rielage was good enough to tell me about him and a group from the church who traveled there to help a family hit hard by the massive destructive storms that occurred this past spring. The pastor from a Nazarene Church in northern Alabama reported that the small town of Phil Campbell was the hardest hit in the area. The 1,500 residents suffered a high death rate and 90 percent of the town was destroyed. When a female member of Springdale Nazarene asked what was going to be done about this horror, the church sprang into action.
Rob says, “God led us to just head to Alabama to pitch in.” T h e church took Evelyn up a collecThe Perkins tion. plan was to Community cut down Press trees, secure on columnist tarps roofs and just do whatever might be needed in the community. Having no particular family or street in mind, on May 11, they loaded up two trucks and a trailer with tools, chainsaws, paintbrushes, etc ..., and headed down I-75. The first family they encountered was the Dummar family – Adam, two daughters ages 5 and 3, and his wife who was pregnant with a son due in June. The group decided to invest its efforts in the Dummar house, reasoning that if Adam knew his fam-
ily was safe, he could then devote time to helping his neighbors. They gutted the house and redid the bathrooms, bought new furniture, replaced electrical fixtures, painted new drywall, laid carpet and installed hardwood flooring. The little girls missed their battery powered Barbie jeep, so they replaced that, too. The Dummars are thrilled with their refurbished home. Even amenities such as bedclothes, shower curtains and towels were provided so that they could get back to living. What an incredible amount of work completed by the time the church crew left May 15. Rob showed me a film they made of their experience. The destruction is heartbreaking. Mountain View Baptist Church was obliterated. In spite of the sad sight of children’s toys lying in rubble, residents wrote words of faith and hope on trees, and painted
thank you messages on their homes. Someone even raised the American flag as if to convey that they were down but not out. Adam emotionally recounted the storm – how the family hid in the smallest closet in the house and began praying. “Forty-five seconds to a minute later my parent’s house was gone, but they were OK. A neighbor asked for assistance with an injured grandson. I helped carry him a quarter of a mile for treatment, but it was too late. Springdale Nazarene saved my life. I am so grateful for their help.” Rob grew up in Springdale Nazarene Church and has been the outreach pastor there for three years. He lives in Liberty Township, and just returned from working in Montango, Peru, with 10 others to help build a church. He is also participating with Houston First Church of the Nazarene to

inspired the Breidensteins’ neighbors to reach out and help a family who’s house has fallen into some disrepair, as they focus on their son. Neighbor Mike Honerlaw organized a painting posse to spruce up the century-old home, drawing friends from throughout the village to brighten the house with a fresh coat of yellow paint. In the process, other needs were identified, and those fixes were made. Honerlaw said he hopes they will be able to address other repairs as well, such as a new roof. Chuck Ehlers arrived at the Breidenstein house when the painting was wrapping up on a recent weekend. “Someone pointed out a bad step in front,” Ehlers said. “So, we took the old step out and poured a new one.” It’s that type of selfless-

Tom Breidenstein said the effort was touching. “It was presented as a gift, and we were happy to accept,” he said of the painting event. “It’s a good example of the gracious
nature of Glendale.” He said the community has reached out in other ways, too, bringing food when they sat vigil with William, and helping with their daughter, Frances. “They stepped up above and beyond what could be expected of neighbors,” Tom said. “They worked for five
weekends, from sun up to sundown on our house,” he said, “despite their own family obligations, for us and for William.” Walter Cordes, who recently retired as Glendale administrator, returned to help with the painting, noting that the effort was representative of the Glendale community’s concern for each other. “If everybody does a little,” he said. “it makes a tremendous difference,” Cordes said. Ehlers said Tom Breidenstein has shown tremendous strength in the past couple of years, even in his ability to receive from others. “It’s a powerful statement about Tom,” he said about the gift of neighbors helping, which in turn, gives back. “When we help someone else,” he said, “we get as much out of it as those we’re helping.”
State to help Woodlawn clean former Hexion property The Village of Woodlawn will receive a $1 million Clean Ohio Revitalization grant to conduct clean up the former Hexion Specialty Chemicals property. State Rep. Connie Pillich
(D-28th District) announced the grant July 11. The money will be used to remove asbestos, deal with groundwater pollution and demolish existing buildings so the site can be redeveloped.
The development partner, Garrett Wood, LLC plans to redevelop the site on Glendale-Milford Road into a mixture of commercial, retail, and institutional uses. Negotiations are under way for a new 40,000 square foot building with a
neighborhood living for older adults
ten-year lease commitment to a university. During redevelopment, earth-friendly features will be incorporated including green building techniques on new construction and a walking trail with benches and picnic areas throughout the property. There is also a strong interest from local business entities to relocate their business and offices to the project property once it is remediated and redeveloped due to its high visibility and easy access. The property was first developed in the early 1950s by Borden Chemicals and was later acquired by Hexion Specialty Chemicals Inc. The facility was used to perform research and manufacturing of solvent-based inks until 1999.

Glendale wine shop to toast ride for cancer research By Kelly McBride

Steve Dinnerstein will donate wine from his reserve cellar, such as this signed bottle of Chateau St. Jean Cinq Cepages cabernet sauvignon for a silent auction during a special wine tasting on Friday.
Wine tasters had an opportunity to support the American Cancer Society, honor a former employee and sample from the reserves of the Piazza Discepoli cellar during a special event July 15. It was such a success that the wine shop event was continued the following Friday, July 22. The event was put together by John and Nancy Orben, who will participate in the Pan Ohio Hope Ride from July 28 through July 31. John participated in 2010, in honor of his mother, who died from cancer.

Piazza Discepoli Wine Merchant owner Steve Dinnerstein said he wanted to honor former employee Bob Collins, who died from cancer in November. The goal: to raise $3,000 in donations. The wine tasting included a $25 option instead of the typical $10 tasting. That selection included four selections from Dinnerstein’s reserve cellar.

Princeton’s Budde looks upside down at UK
By Scott Springer
sspringer@communitypress.com
FILE PHOTO/GEOFF BLANKENSHIP
Kyle Budde leaps for a pass in his high school days for Princeton as defender Jahlil Croley covers during offensive pass drills. Budde is now a long snapper/tight end for the Kentucky Wildcats in his redshirt freshman year.
Sometimes the closest way between two points is a straight line – between your legs. At least that’s what former Princeton High School football player Kyle Budde has found out at Kentucky. After not playing football in his initial semester at UK, Budde discovered the Wildcats’ long snapper was graduating. Having taken to the art of spiraling a football to someone while looking at them upside down in high school, Budde decided to give it a go. Since then, he’s been chucking footballs backward on a daily basis. “We haven’t officially started yet,” Budde said.
“I’ve just been out working on my own.” S i n c e walking on for the Wildcats, Budde Budde has made it through the allotted 15 early practices and zipped three snaps off in the Kentucky spring game without error. “It’s up in the air right now,” Budde said of his chances. Budde wouldn’t be the first to earn a collegiate roster spot by long snapping, but considering his relative lack of experience, it would be an amazing feat. “Along with playing tight end and defensive end,
CUP sends 3 teams to regionals Cincinnati United Soccer Club had three boys teams play in the 2011 U.S. Youth Soccer Region II Championships in Wisconsin, recently. The CUP Gold U15, U16, and U18 boys teams all earned spots in the regionals from their play in the Ohio South State Cup and Midwest Regional League. The CUP Gold U16 boys team finished as regional finalists in the event. The U16s fell to Minnesota Thunder Academy (Minnesota State Champs) Wednesday 2-1 in overtime in the final. In the tournament semifinals, they defeated Springfield (Missouri State Champs) 2-1 in overtime to make the finals. The team advanced to the knock out round by beating DASC Seekers (South Dakota State Champs) 5-1, United 1996 FC (Kentucky State Champs) 1-0, and Carmel United Elite (Indiana State Champs) 1-0. The team is coached by John McGinlay and Bobby Puppione. “Our teams put on some fantastic performances this

I long-snapped my senior year (at Princeton),” Budde said. “Coming into my senior year, I had never really snapped before. We didn’t have a snapper and my coach told me to try it out. I did, and I was the snapper.” The Vikings were 8-2 in Budde’s sophomore year, but just 5-5 in his final two years. The decision to snap seems to have worked out well, since Princeton has historically not been particularly pass-happy. In his senior season, Budde hauled down five balls for 60 yards. “They found me every now and then,” Budde said. Since trading Viking red for Wildcat blue, Budde has maneuvered himself into the hunt to aerially hike the

Three Cincinnati United Soccer Club played in the 2011 U.S. Youth Soccer Region II Championships in Wisconsin, recently. The CUP Gold U16 boys finished as regional finalists in the event. The team includes, from left: Front row, Alex Gambill (Lebanon), Kyle Mattes (Loveland), David Janusz (Lebanon), Jerrick Valentine (Sycamore), Karl Mattes (Loveland), Sam Bascom (Madeira), Daniel Richtand (Wyoming); back row: coach John McGinlay, Richard McLane, PJ Seuss (St. Xavier), Caelan Hueber (Summit Country Day, Newtown resident), Ben Emery (Summit Country Day), Harrison Glover, Jake Ciricillo (Sycamore), Jake Stovall (Centerville), Jacob Meyer (Fenwick), Mark Andrew (Fenwick), Garrett Householder (Kings) and coach Bobby Puppione. past week against some of the nation's best teams,” said CUP Boys Director of Coaching, John McGinlay. “Now that we have tasted what it feels like to play at this level, we are anxious to see more teams succeed in this event in the future.” The U15 boys team advanced to the semi-finals by beating Sporting KC (Kansas State Champs) 1-0, Ambassadors (Ohio North
State Champs) 5-0, and losing to St Louis Scott Gallagher (Missouri State Runner-ups) 2-1. In the tournament semifinals, they lost a tough match to Chicago Fire Jrs 4-0. The team is coached by Terry Nicholl. The U18 boys did not advance out of their group but finished tied for second in their bracket.
They tied Team Ohio Blast (Ohio South State Champs) 2-2, lost to KCFC Rangers (Kansas State Champs) 4-0, and beat Michigan Wolves (Michigan State Champs) 4-3. The team is coached by Nicholl. All three CUP boys teams were knocked out of the championships by the eventual champion in their respective age group.
football for coach Joker Phillips. His snap time back to the punter is competitive. “You try to get around an .8,” Budde said. “I’m right around an .8, sometimes a little above, sometimes a little below.” Much like his choice to walk-on came from research, so did his choice to go to school in Lexington. “Right before my senior year, I went to a lot of football camps around the area,” Budde said. “I went to UC, Ohio State, Pitt and Kentucky. I decided to take a school visit to Kentucky and I liked it.” Budde is now bending over backward to get the UK coaching staff to like him.

CH@TROOM July 20 questions
If a constitutional amendment is placed on the November ballot to legalize medical marijuana in Ohio, would you vote for it or against it? Why? “I would vote for the amendment. Marijuana has many health benefits and is less dangerous than alcohol, which is legal. It could help boost the economy and Ohio could be known as one of the few states to embrace this new revolutionary law. Age limits would still be in place, like tobacco, so there’s no need to worry about kids smoking weed. But to me, the gains seem to weigh over the losses and so I would support the amendment fully.” J.S. “The good people of the state of California approved medical marijuana years ago. The federal government said a state cannot supersede federal law and threatened to prosecute, but then ignored the numerous “clinics” that were set up to dispense the “medicine.” “It’s a talk-show joke how easy people can obtain prescriptions, but the beat goes on ...” R.V. “I would vote for it. I think that no matter what laws we have in place, people who want to do it are going to smoke pot. “I’m not an expert, but my opinion is that it is not always as dangerous a drug as some people think, nor is it necessarily a stepping stone to stronger drugs. I put it in the same class as alcohol (and no, I don’t smoke it.) “Think of the prison space we could free up if people weren’t in there for marijuana-related crimes. And if the sale of the drug can be controlled so that a medical reasons must exist to justify it that’s even more reason to legalize it.” Bill B. “Absolutely yes, but why stop at medical uses? While I don’t smoke anything legal or illegal and haven’t since 1970, our jails are full of people who did and I, for one, am tired of paying for their room and board while our state parks and schools are losing funding. “People will abuse pot just like they abuse alcohol, drive too fast, ride motorcycles without headgear, ignore seatbelts, handle snakes at religious services and a host of other risky behaviors. Some will ruin their health and some will die. Let them. “For those critically ill people who believe they get relief from pot, give them a break. “In hospice care, doctors legal-

In 1965, government created the Department of Education, starting the dumbing of America. Now that we’re dumb, we need to stay numb.” P.K. “Definitely yes. I have had both relatives and now a close friend with cancers. In all these cases the only remedy to the extreme nausea they experienced from chemotherapy was good oldfashioned pot. “My friend that is currently using marijuana illegally claims that it is the only medication that has even come close to ridding, even temporarily, the ongoing nausea from chemo and it has helped her appetite. “She has been prescribed several anti-nausea meds, including synthetic marijuana in pill form and nothing worked. “Yes, it should be controlled, but it has many uses that the pharmaceutical giants can not match. Use it wisely for our friends and maybe you in the future.” J.Z.

Your doctor may ask you for a stool sample which is needed to confirm the diagnosis. You should know exactly what is wrong and the cause, but so does the restaurant manager, his future customers, and people you live with. Next you should call your health department. You will be asked to give as many details as you can. An important question will be what you ate recently. A 24-72 hour food history is needed because some food-borne illness take several days to cause symptoms. For example Salmonella bacteria typically take 12-72 hours to make you ill. On the other hand staphylococcal intoxication may take as little as 30 minutes to make you sick.

Public housing debate must begin with factual discussion There has been a lot of very public debate about affordable housing in Cincinnati and Hamilton County lately. Such discussion is healthy. This is an important community issue, and the community should weigh in, regardless of where you live or how you feel about this issue. Like any discussion, it is important to know the facts. Too many opinions about affordable housing are based on information that is questionable at best and simply wrong at worst. Not every ill-kept, run-down property in your neighborhood is “Section 8” or “public housing.” In fact, it is highly likely that none of them are, because CMHA strictly enforces guidelines for those who participate in our programs – both residents and landlords. Police calls to affordable housing locations are not greater than those for the rest of the population. One major reason why is because CMHA residents must pass criminal background checks. CMHA is aggressive in addressing any problems that do arise. We also maintain a 24-hour hotline for neighborhood complaints – and many of the calls to the hotline are for properties that are not owned or supported by CMHA.
There is a strong chance that some of the neighbors you value are receiving housing assistance, and you don’t even know it. Ted Bergh That fear Community about affordable Press guest housing hurting values? columnist property No study has ever shown it to be true. You might be surprised to learn that CMHA pumps more than $100 million into the Hamilton County economy every year by providing jobs, developing property and supporting renters. In all, CMHA’s various housing programs account for 4.4 percent of all housing units in Hamilton County. We partner with local communities to leverage CMHA funds to create comprehensive and collaborative affordable housing solutions as well as development opportunities. Our approach to affordable housing has matured and, far from hurting property values, CMHA’s efforts actually support them. Unlike many stereotypes to the contrary, most residents served by
CMHA are working families, disabled or the elderly, and the majority eventually phase out of the public housing system. Some need more help than others. Some simply need a safety net for a short time. The need for affordable housing isn’t arrived at arbitrarily or artificially inflated. The need is very real, and growing. The waiting list for our housing choice voucher program alone, for example, is 13,000. Fully 15.2 percent of Hamilton County residents live below the poverty line. With the continuing economic slump and resulting sluggish employment and housing markets, it’s a safe bet that more and more people are going to need help. You know what? You know some of them. They may be your friends, colleagues, former neighbors, family members. They may even be you. Affordable housing is a critical community need and community responsibility. Like any such issue, public debate is important. That debate absolutely must be rooted in facts, not misconceptions. Ted Bergh is interim executive director of the Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority.
Debt limit debate a good opportunity to act decisively Much of the news you’ve probably heard coming out of Washington these days has to do with the approaching debt ceiling limit, which we’ve been told will be reached in less than a month. President Obama a few months back was urging Congress to pass a so-called “clean” increase in the debt limit, which meant no cuts in spending at all. When this came up for a vote in the House, 97 Democrats voted for it, while all Republicans and 82 Democrats voted against it. Therefore, the “clean” debt limit increase failed overwhelmingly, 97 to 318. The Obama administration is now trying to stampede Congress into raising taxes as part of a debt ceiling increase. Raising taxes in my view is always a bad idea, particularly at a time when the economy is weak and unemployment is high. The additional burden on the economy from raising taxes would likely result in an even more sluggish recovery than the
Steve Chabot Community Press guest columnist
one we’ve experienced so far. That’s not the answer. So what is? Cut. Cap. And balance. This is a proposal put forward by a group of fiscally conservative members of Congress, including myself, to resolve the debt
ceiling impasse. Cut, cap, and balance. First, it would require spending reductions that would cut the deficit in half next year. Second, spending would be capped to return federal spending to 18 percent of GDP, instead of the 25 percent level it is now. And third, both houses of Congress must pass a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution before the vote on the debt limit
occurs. And the amendment I favor would require a two-thirds vote of both houses to raise taxes in the future, and a three-fifths vote in both houses to raise the debt limit. And finally, the amendment would require the president to submit a balanced budget to Congress each year. Let me conclude by emphasizing that the Obama administration and the Congress must not let the United States default on its debts. But neither can we afford to allow the out-of-control spending in Washington to continue. The current debate is an opportunity for our nation’s leaders to act decisively on both issues, and thus save us from fiscal ruin. Republican Steve Chabot represents the 1st District in the U. S.

Springdale Garden Club President Carolyn Grhantours and Springdale Mayor Doyle Webster celebrate Arbor Day with the Springdale Elementary Student Council.
Springdale Garden Club sows a busy spring The Springdale Garden Club had a busy spring with a garden afternoon tea party in March. The event was very successful fundraiser for the club. The club then partnered with the Springdale Parks Department, the Public Works Department and the Springdale Elementary School for the Arbor Day celebration at the end of April. A program was presented by the first-, second- and third-grade classes and the student council members. The Garden club handed out brochures on planting and caring for trees. The Garden club donated the cost of the saw toothed oak tree which was planted near the play ground. The tree is a hard wood tree and should last well over 50 years. Later, the club helped several of the teacher’s plant seeds along with their students. The club ordered butterfly larvae for second-grade classes that were later released into the Butterfly Garden. The garden has been a big success with the children since they learned
which plants the butterflies like. They always look for butterflies when passing the garden on their way to the play ground. The next spring project was to clean up the three flower beds in front of the Community Center and to plant summer annuals. The garden club partners with the Community Center Staff on caring for this garden. They were a large help last fall when we divided and moved several of the overgrown plants. In the summer the club planned several outings to local gardens and a salad supper. The garden club will conduct a planning meeting Aug. 8. The club’s first fall meeting will be Sept. 12. Naomi Ormes, will present a program on caring and dividing hostas. Ormes is a floral designer and judge for Ohio Association of Garden Clubs. She is a great gardener and has won many blue ribbons on her hostas and day lilies. To attend any of the upcoming events, e-mail Joan Knox at joanknox99@ fuse.net.
Corvette owners Karen and Dennis Kurelis of Pierce Township chat with Tom Kerr of Glendale and Jim Barker of Springboro about their 1969 Stingray. “Everything’s original, even the paint,” Dennis Kurelis said of the car he’s owned since 1971.
Rain washes out Glendale car show
Kevin Jones of Symmes Township takes a look at a Dodge Barracuda at the Glendale Car Show.
The Cincinnati Civic Orchestra, under the direction of conductor Larry Bonhaus, performs in the Village Square after the scheduled car show. Though only a few cars and spectators visited the square when the car show was canceled, about 100 people attended the concert later in the day on June 26, when the weather improved.
Though Glendale had to cancel its Classic Car and Motorcycle Show, a few models showed up for a handful of visitors to the Village Square Sunday, June 26. The annual display of vintage vehicles had attracted about two dozen pre-registrations, which officials said would be held for next year or refunded. Organizers had expected a record number of participants, but heavy rain kept them from the show. Later in the evening,when the weather improved, the Square was filled with visitors for a performance by the Cincinnati Civic Orchestra.

‘Bee’ on the lookout for pollinators in your yard Most of the time, when we see a bee, our initial reaction is to kill it. If you’ve been stung before, you know it can hurt, so naturally you become defensive – especially if you’re allergic to bee stings. As best we can, it’s time to change our thinking from defense to offense, as our honey bee (and other pollinators) populations continue to decline to alarmingly low numbers. Without our bees and their pollinating abilities, we wouldn’t have much of the food we eat. In fact, one bite of every three we take was dependent on a honey bee for pollination. So, what’s causing the decline? There are many factors including mites, viruses and other diseases, chemical exposure, lack of nutrition (limited supply of good pollen and nectar sources), and of course, Colony Collapse Disorder, which may be a combination of all of the above (still a lot of research going on). How can you help? Although most backyard gardeners can’t do anything about the mites, viruses, diseases and over all Colony Collapse Disorder, we can help increase honey bees and other pollinators within our yards and neighborhoods.
Garden for the bees
• Plant nectar rich plants in your garden, patio pots, window boxes, etc. • Try to create bee areas that are in full sun, and protected from the wind. • Make sure there are
plants flowering at all times for the bees to work on. • Many weeds are an excellent Ron Wilson source of In the nectar and Garden pollen (dandelions and clover are great!). When possible let them flower for the bees to use, then pull or get rid of the weeds. • Try planting both native and non native nectar and pollen sources. Flowering shrubs, perennials, annuals, vegetables and herbs can all be great sources of nectar and pollen. • Provide a source of water. (Bee favorites include lavender, milkweed, daisies, coreopsis, crocus, Alliums, chives, catmint, salvia, sage, gayfeather, Penstemon digitalis, sedum, goldenrod, lambs ears, thyme, zinnias, etc. Trees and shrubs include crab apples, edible peaches and apples, hawthorn, flowering cherry, spirea, butterfly plant, caryopteris, etc.
Reduce use of pesticides
• If you must spray, use targeted pesticides that won’t affect bees, and spray when the bees are least active (early in morning or at dusk when the wind is not blowing). • If possible, don’t spray flowering plants that attract the bees, or at least try to treat the leaves only, not the flowers. Treat only plants that are being badly eaten.
• Use integrated pest management methods (mechanical and cultural ways to control pests as well as chemical, such as hosing off bad bugs, knocking them off into a bucket of soapy water, using grow covers, hand picking, etc. Apply insecticidal soap or horticultural oil before getting out the stronger insecticides. Note: Pesticides will vary in their effect on bees. Dusts and wettable powders are more hazardous to bees than solutions or emulsifiable concentrates. Systemics are a safer way to control many harmful pests without sprays, but may contaminate nectar or pollen. Read the label. Many insecticides, like Sevin or Spinosad (an organic spray) may be very low in toxicity to humans and pets, yet are extremely toxic to bees.

Learn more about bees
Take the time to learn more about not only honey bees, but our native bees as well. Educate the kids about the importance of the bees, and how to watch for and avoid bees. (Only female honey bees can sting, and it truly is used as a defense mechanism only.)
Buy local honey
Help support your local bee keepers by purchasing locally produced honey and other honey related prod-
ucts. The honey is often more fresh and will contain vitamins and minerals that some commercially produced honey may lack. So let’s all do our part to invite and allow these honey bees to do their jobs in our gardens. And the next time you smack a honey bee, just think about the impact you’ve made on our world of bees. Can you imagine what the world would ‘bee’ like without our pollinators? (Thanks to Bar-bee Bloetscher,OSU Extension/ ODA, for much of our bee information.) Ron Wilson is marketing manager for Natorp’s Garden Stores and is the garden expert for 55KRC-AM and Local 12. Reach him at columns@ communitypress.com.
Beat The Heat & Save
Protect swarms
If a swarm of honeybees happen to visit your yard and garden, don’t panic! They’re usually not aggressive. Give them time to move on, or call your local Extension office or Police to get phone numbers for local beekeepers that will gladly come and remove the hive safely and transport it elsewhere. You can often find people on swarm lists for your county online as well (see box).

‘Orange’ ya glad it’s smoothie weather?
We had a wonderful time in Michigan at the lake house, which daughter-inlaw Courtney’s family owns. We seldom get one-on-one time with our kids and Rita I loved just Heikenfeld sitting on the deck chatRita’s ting with kitchen them without having to wonder how long they can stay. The grandkids loved everything about Little Glen Lake in Michigan, from the
shallow, clean water to the beautiful white sand dunes. Husband, Frank, and I went on to Montreal and Quebec and Old Quebec is now one of my favorite cities. The food was authentic – poutine (French-fried potatoes with veal “gravy”), duck confit , salads with maple syrup dressing, and flaky breakfast croissants studded with chocolate. I think I ate my way through Quebec! It’s back to reality now, though, with this searing heat. A perfect reason to whip up a batch of Orange Julius smoothies.
Orange Julius smoothie
This is as close as I can get to the kind sold at the mall. Because your body digests liquids easier than solids, a smoothie is a wonderful way to give kids who can’t tolerate a solid meal a healthful start. 6 oz. can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed 2 cups milk Sugar to taste (start with 1 ⁄3 cup and go from there) or substitute 2 teaspoons vanilla Couple handfuls of ice Whirl everything together in the blender.

Rita’s sour cream chocolate birthday cake courtesy of her daughter-in-law Jessie. 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate 1 stick butter 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups sugar 2 eggs, separated 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 ⁄2 cup sour cream 2 cups less 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon baking powder Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour boiling water over chocolate and butter to melt. Stir in vanilla and sugar. Then blend in egg yolks. Combine soda and sour cream, then add to chocolate mixture and blend well, a couple of minutes or so on medium speed. Add flour and baking powder and blend again. Beat egg whites until they hold a peak and fold into batter. Bake 50 minutes in a very well sprayed bundt pan. Cool 15 minutes then gently remove from pan by flipping upside down on a rack. Serves 12 to 15.
Chocolate frosting
3 oz. unsweetened chocolate 3 tablespoons butter 3 cups confectioners’ sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 3-8 tablespoons milk
In a double boiler over hot water melt chocolate with the butter. Or use a nonstick pan on low heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool for five minutes. In an electric mixer add chocolate mixture and confectioners’ sugar. Beat until mixture resembles chalky
beads. Add the vanilla and the milk 1 tablespoon at a time until a spreadable consistency is reached. Beat until fluffy – adding more milk if necessary.
Aunt Becky’s Thriftway potato salad
I’ve had several requests for this, along with Thriftway’s tuna salad and Bigg’s chicken salad. I have cloned the tuna and chicken salads and will share them soon. I received this from Clermont County reader Julie Scott several years ago straight from the deli cookbook. You can try and cut the recipe in half. As far as the freeze-dried chives, a palmful of fresh chives will work, too, or finely chopped green onions. 71⁄2 lbs. potatoes, cooked and diced 41⁄2 cups Hellmann’s mayo 3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped 4 tablespoons yellow mustard 21⁄2 teaspoons onion salt 11⁄2 teaspoons celery seed 11⁄2 teaspoons freezedried chives 11⁄2 teaspoons sugar 3 ⁄4 cup chopped celery Let set in refrigerator overnight and serve the next day!

THANKS TO MARY SIMANDL
Camp Dennison resident Mary Simandl earned grand champion for a pen of four chickens at the Hamilton County 4H Community Fair at Stricker’s Grove.
Camp Dennison girl grand champion at 4H fair By Amanda Hopkins
Camp Dennison resident Mary Simandl, right, shows one of the judges one of her chickens at the Hamilton County 4H Community Fair at Stricker’s Grove earlier this month. Simandl earned Grand Champion with a pen of four chickens and second in showmanship.
ahopkins@communitypress.com
Mary Simandl and her chickens are grand champions. The Camp Dennison resident won the grand champion prize with four of her chickens at the Hamilton County 4H Community Fair earlier this month. “It was really cool,� Simandl said. She said she feeds the chickens high-protein food from the time they are hatched in May until the fair in July. She gets them exercise by letting them roam through the grass. Simandl has been showing chickens at the fair since she was 8. The Indian Hill High School junior also earned second place in
THANKS TO MARY SIMANDL
showmanship at the fair and the award for top exhibitor for chickens. Simandl said raising chickens is a family tradition. Her dad, Al, is a farm manager at Green Acres in Indian Hill and taught Mary, her sister Jenna and her brother Austin a lot about animals and other farming techniques. She said many people
sell their chickens at the fair, but she usually gives hers to friends or neighbors who have helped her or given donations while she is raising them. The cutoff age for showing animals at the fair is 18. Simandl said she plans to keep showing animals the next few years and hopefully keep her title as grand champion.

located, and most likely had the space and equipment he was looking for. After a chat with owner Larry Keckeis, Hinsey knew the hunt had ended with Rhinos. The church held its first service at Rhinos Live in late August 2010. “We’re excited to have found the right spot,” says Hinsey. “Sure, it’s a little different, but then, so are we. This building has the space, equipment, and flexibility to let us do our thing – which is to give folks good music and a sound message in a casual atmosphere.” Rhinos owner Keckeis agrees, “I’m glad to be able to help Dorrien and his church. I think it’ll bring positive energy to our place.” The church holds services at Rhinos Live, 11473 Chester Road, Sharonville.

Compass Community Church takes a different approach to worship, starting with regular Sunday services at Rhinos Live, an entertainment venue. Compass Community Church pastor Dorrien Hinsey needed to find a new home for his three-year-old church. The search had been on for awhile, but some buildings cost too much, others weren’t a good fit for the size of the congregation, and still others were a logistical nightmare when it came to setting up equipment and other elements for a church service. Then he found an unlikely place that seemed “just right.” As he drove by Rhinos Live on Chester Road, he was intrigued by the idea that it was conveniently

said John Young, CEO of the Freestore Foodbank. “These talents also made him Reiber the most qualified, out of an excellent candidate pool, to lead the Freestore Foodbank and our community into the future. I am confident in his ability to continue to help build the Freestore Foodbank, and to develop the capacity to serve an increasing need for assistance in the Tristate.” According to Rich Boehne, president and CEO of the E.W. Scripps Co. and chairman of the board’s search committee, Reiber received unanimous approval from the Freestore Foodbank board of directors, and his hiring represents an important step in the leadership succession plan of the Freestore Foodbank. Bill Dankworth, vice president of grocery merchandising and procurement at The Kroger Co., and Freestore Foodbank board chair, said Reiber will work alongside CEO John Young for up to a year until Young’s retirement. “We’re very pleased about this transition plan,” Dankworth said.

Kurt Reiber of Wyoming is the new president of the Freestore Foodbank, working with CEO John Young. Reiber’s experience with the Freestore Foodbank is extensive, having served on the board of directors of the Freestore Foodbank for 14 years, most recently as Chairman of the Board from 2006-2010. During his time as chairman, Reiber helped lead the Freestore Foodbank through a successful capital campaign to restore all three facilities (Anderson Family Administrative Building, Customer Connection Center, Mayerson Distribution Center), and to improve capacity to distribute food to those in need throughout Greater Cincinnati. In the past two years, the Freestore Foodbank has doubled the amount of food distributed through 20 counties in the Tristate; from 9 million pounds in fiscal year 2009, to 18 million pounds in fiscal year 2011. Reiber took a leave of absence from the Freestore Foodbank board of directors in January in order to apply for the position of president. “Kurt possesses unique leadership abilities and a passion for our mission that have made him a great leader for our organization,”
