Parade honors Green Township By Kurt Backscheider
kbackscheider@communitypress.com
Volume 83 Number 41 © 2009 The Community Press ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
Labor Day is typically the unofficial end of summer. Summer in Cheviot lasts a little longer. For most Westsiders, the sign autumn is just around the corner arrives with the annual Harvest Home Parade. It won’t be long before lawn chairs line the sidewalks along Harrison Avenue and North Bend Road in preparation for the parade, which kicks off the Cheviot-Westwood Kiwanis Club’s annual Harvest Home Fair. This year’s parade begins promptly at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 10, at the intersection of Harrison and Frances avenues. Ten parade divisions of veterans’ groups, Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops, marching bands, floats, local fire and police departments, dancers, gymnasts, community organizations, area sports teams and politicians will usher in the fair. The 150th annual fair runs through Sunday, Sept. 13, at Harvest Home Park. Kiwanis member Dave Backer, parade chairman, said the parade’s theme this year is “Green Township – 200 years old,” a nod to Cheviot’s neighbor celebrating its bicentennial. Green Township Trustee Tony

Grand marshal
The grand marshal for the 2009 Harvest Home Parade is CheviotWestwood Kiwanis Club member Matt Roth. Dave Backer, parade chairman, said the club decided to honor Roth with this year’s grand marshal title because he is a second-generation Kiwanian and serves as the club’s treasurer. Backer said every penny the Kiwanis Club takes in is distributed back to the community, and Roth oversees all the club’s finances. “He donates all his time,” Backer said.

Green Township resident Ray Wegman and his Belgian horses are a staple in the Harvest Home Parade. Last year Wegman, far left, rode in the parade with Katie Wegman, center, and Vicki Thompson. Upton said he thinks it’s fantastic the Kiwanis Club chose to pay tribute to the township at this year’s parade. “It’s a very great honor dedicated to Green Township and its 200 years of existence,” Upton said. “The history of the township and all of the changes it has gone
through is pretty neat.” He said the original name of the Harvest Home Fair was the Green Township Harvest Home Fair. When the township’s harvest home association went bankrupt in 1939, he said the Kiwanis Club agreed to buy the association’s assets and took over the operation of the event.
Upton said the township is entering a 24-foot float in the parade. Backer said a new feature at this year’s parade is the promotion of the Thursday night festivities at Harvest Home Park. He said the fair has always been open on Thursdays following the parade, but attendance has never been great. “We’re trying to get more people into the park on Thursday night, and we are offering some specials to help families during these tough economic times,” he said. Admission on Thursday night is free, parking inside the park is free, the rides will be open and there will be $1 specials on pizza, soft drinks and beer, Backer said.
Favorites picked for Readers’ Choice honors By Kurt Backscheider kbackscheider@communitypress.com
In June, The Community Press presented readers with a ballot of 100 categories so they could choose their favorites ranging from American vehicle to produce to women’s clothing. And readers responded, filling out newspaper and online ballots with their choices. You can find the complete list of Readers’ Choice favorites in today’s special section. We’ve talked with some of our readers’ top choices about how they keep their customers coming back. Readers chose Ron’s Roost in Bridgetown as the best place to get a chicken dinner. Olga Larkin, who runs Ron’s Roost with her son, Ron, said their recipe for making customers happy is simple – good food and good service. “We do sell a lot of chicken,” she said. “I think it’s our consistent, good recipe. Our chicken is always cooked fresh, and you get what you want.” She said many of the employees have been with the restaurant for a long time and everyone who works there is experienced and knows what they’re doing.

When readers need their clothes cleaned they trust Kroner Dry Cleaners in Cheviot to do the best job. Ray Kroner runs the business his grandfather, Louis Kroner Sr., founded in 1939. He said his customers appreciate the fact he and his staff never let their guard down, and they treat every article of clothing as though it’s one of their own. “We keep trying,” he said. “Nobody is perfect. You have to wake up every morning with the intention of doing the best you can.” Lutz Flowers in Green Township was selected by readers as their favorite florist. Carol Wainscott, who owns the shop, said besides giving people a quality product at a reasonable price, her staff also provides excellent customer service. She said some of her florists have been with the shop for more than 20 years. She said her staff is very creative and detail-oriented, and every customer knows they will receive individual attention when they walk through the door.

Steve Meyer, manager of Bridgetown Hardware & Paint, stocks and organizes one of the many shelves in the neighborhood hardware store. Readers selected the shop as their favorite hardware store. Meyer, who has managed the store for 30 years, said he thinks customers continue coming back to the store because they can find the specialty niche products large hardware stores don’t carry. He said the store’s staff is also very experienced in helping customers find exactly what they’re looking for. “We try to give people the best customer service we can,” Meyer said. “Our customers know they can come down, get what they need and get out quick with no hassles.” Wainscott said the shop also develops a camaraderie with its customers. “You get to know them so well,

in dangerous situations. As the troop leader for the eighth-grade Girl Scout troop at St. Jude School, Phipps particularly wants teenagers and young girls to learn awareness and habits that can help keep them out of risky situations. Her Girl Scouts and Mother of Mercy High School have partnered to offer Survive, a courage-based self-defense seminar presented by Debbie Gardner, a former Hamilton County Sheriff deputy turned motivational speaker and
self-defense instructor. The seminar runs 7-9 p.m. Monday, Aug. 31, at Mercy High School’s theater. Registration begins at 6:30 p.m., and the cost is $5 at the door. “Our seminar is so much more than literal selfdefense,” said Gardner, who is in her 26th year teaching people how to survive crimes. “We present a motivational speech on courage, with teeth. Others teach safety warnings, fear, guilt and

We teach rights, courage and simple, explicit tools to handle it yourself.” Phipps said her friend’s daughter was attacked in her college dorm, and she wanted to offer the seminar as a community service event to teach girls to be more proactive and help them learn how to stay away from dangerous situations. “I have two teenage daughters and I really wanted to do something for my girls and my troop,” Phipps said. “I want to educate as many girls as possible.” Gardner said she and her husband, Mike, a former police officer, created the Survive Institute because the safety advice of the past no longer applies to today.
Miami Twp. levies on ballot By Jennie Key jkey@communitypress.com

“It infuriated me that the subject was being dealt with on a candy level, and what we needed was steak,” she said. While the seminar does provide physical techniques on how to strike someone who is attacking you, the training session is more about teaching people to be confident and control themselves in a scary situation. “Fear is contagious, but so is courage. Pick one,” she said. Phipps said the seminar is open to adults as well. The event is recommended for those ages 12 and older. “I hope we get as many people there as possible,” she said. “All of us should be more aware of our surroundings and able to help ourselves.”
growth. The rolled back rate is called the effective millage. The replacement levies would reset the base amount for the effective millage, causing an increase in cost to residents and an increased income for the police and fire departments. David Nurre, supervisor of budgets and settlements with the Hamilton County Auditor’s Office, said the 1.60-mill police levy was originally passed in 1990, generates $346,000 annually and costs the owner of a $100,000 home $21.63. Its effective millage has rolled back to .73-mills. The replacement police levy would generate $546,812 and cost the owner of a $100,000 home $47.49 annually. Nurre said the 3.29-mill levy for fire, emergency medical and paramedic services was originally passed in 2000. It currently generates $858,394 annually and costs the owner of a $100,000 home $76.04. Its effective millage is now 2.56 mills. The replacement police levy will generate $1,055,504 and cost the owner of a $100,000 home $97.66 annually. Trustee Paul Beck said the township needs the increase. “We have experienced increasing costs but collecting the same amount of taxes all these years,” he said. “The township has been absorbing the difference, but that can’t continue. We need the additional funds to provide the current level of police and fire services.”

Miami University student Andrew Putz received a project citation from the International Green Community Design Competition, sponsored by the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture. The competition encouraged students to explore sustainable planning strategies such as brownfield/grayfield redevelopment, transitoriented communities, natural resource management and land conservation, and develop a proposal to create a flourishing and sustainable community using the tools of the environmental design disciplines: architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning. Putz was part of a team of five students who submitted a project entitled “Pieces in a Framework: Green Design Initiative.”

Life
Where do our crises come from? Where do our c r i s e s c o m e from? I d o n ’ t accept the idea that God causFather Lou es sufferGuntzelman ing and Perspectives 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. 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. A crisis can be a holy summons to become more the person God made us to be. The best way to meet the crises of life is to admit them, name as specifically as we can the feelings we are experiencing, spend time in genuine reflection (seek competent help if necessary), and be painfully honest with ourselves. In short: feel, reflect, learn, and seek understanding which is the key. Father Lou Guntzelman is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

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 Child asked about my family and me. We talked for a total of 30 minutes, 10 of which was professional and the rest was personal. And guess what? She even sent me a signed thank you note. So that’s my Julia story and that’s why she was so loved and that’s why my copy of her book “Mastering the Art of French Cookingâ€? is dog-eared with use.

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
well, too. Here’s how I season mine: Brush four salmon fillets, about 6 ounces each, with skin (or not) on both sides with olive or other oil. Season both sides with salt and 1⠄4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (this is enough for all four) and the juice of a lime (about 2 tablespoons). Grill as indicated above.

Kiwanis honors Covedale Center By Kurt Backscheider kbackscheider@communitypress.com
George Ohntrup said the work Tim Perrino has done to transform the old Covedale theater into a vibrant arts center has been amazing. He said there wasn’t much hope for the 1940sera neighborhood movie theater after it shut down in the early 1990s. A couple of cinema grill businesses gave a shot at saving the building, but he said nothing significant took place until Perrino came along with his campaign to save the theater and revive it as the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts. “It’s really a blessing the theater ended up the way it did,� said Ohntrup, a member of the Price Hill-Western
Hills Kiwanis Club. The club recognized Perrino’s efforts at a meeting Tuesday, Aug. 18, and presented him with a plaque and a $500 donation. Ohntrup said the club presented the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts the award “in appreciation for its contributions to the vitality and development of our community.� Perrino, the artistic director at the performing arts center, said there were plenty of skeptics who doubted he would be able to open a successful live theater venue in Price Hill. “I told them, ‘You obviously don’t know the West side,’� said Perrino, a Westwood resident who grew up in Delhi Township. Since its grand opening in 2002, Covedale boasts nearly 3,000 season ticket
holders and a growing reputation as the area’s newest and most exciting venue for the performing arts. Perrino and his team have removed the old movie screens, built a brand new stage, added new seats and upgraded the facility’s lighting and sound systems. They also recently renovated the space behind the
stage and constructed a new addition to house dressing rooms, restrooms and an audition room for the performers. Perrino said none of the work could have been possible without support from organizations like the Kiwanis Club. “We cannot thank you enough,� he told the club
members. “It’s tremendous the amount of community support we enjoy every day.� Sandy Flick, president of the Price Hill-Western Hills Kiwanis Club, said members of the club, many of whom have season tickets to Covedale, voted to donate money to the theater because it’s important to the
neighborhood and they want to help it continue growing. “Tim has done a lot for the community,� Flick said. Perrino thanked the club for its generosity and encouraged the members to see a show. “It’s the best way to enjoy this side of town, if you ask me,� he said.

Looking back at Harvest Home Fair The 2009 Harvest Home Fair will be the milestone 150th! The Kiwanis Club of Cheviot-Westwood has sponsored the last 71 fairs and we are proud of its history. The founding editor of The Western Hills Press and a Charter Member of The Cheviot-Westwood Club, Albert Huneke wrote: “Early in its history, The Club was confronted with a community challenge and urged to accept that task by the first and only twoterm president, John J. O’Rourke, business manager of The Western Hills Press. The newly formed Kiwanis
Dr. William Gerhardt Community Press guest columnist
Club accepted the challenge. So only a year after The Kiwanis Club was established in mid 1937 as the community’s newest organization, the demise of the community’s oldest organization appeared inevitable. The Green Township Harvest Home Association, bankrupt and with aging leadership, voted to discontinue its annual Festival after 79 years without a miss during times of war and peace,
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR No more construction
In regards to the story “Retail center gets 1st OK” on Aug. 19, I would like to ask Adam Goetzman and the rest of the Green Township administration a question. Do we really need more retail in Green Township? Do we really need to keep allowing developers to build strip center after strip center? Are you people being paid personally to allow the desecration of our area by these buildings that tear down our green space only to sit empty? On Harrison Avenue alone, there are thousands of square feet sitting empty. On my intersection at Ruwe’s Oak and Rybolt we have two buildings that are not at 100 percent. I think the guy who
owned those has more buildings on Harrison sitting empty. I also think there is a strip center being built by a lone man on Saturdays right across from the proposed site of the one in this story. What is wrong with stopping issuing building permits and turning Green Township in to a clean, safe community again. Take a look around, guys and gal, Harrison Avenue does not need any more construction, it actually needs to be cleaned up a tad. The township leadership should be ashamed of what they are doing to our area. Paul E. Jones Jamie’s Oak Court Green Township
CH@TROOM What do you expect from the Bengals this season? “Same ol’ … same ol’ 500 season. That’s their game plan. It will never change. The city/county should have let Mr. Brown leave town (with his team) when he made the threat. Now we are in debt for a multimillion dollar stadium, used only a few days a year, for a predisposed mediocre team owned by someone who cares more about the “bottom line” than fielding a winning team. His father would disown him!” W.K.S. “Same thing I expected from them last season, I expect them to WIN, WIN, WIN!! Maybe this is the year for those expectations to be fulfilled.” M.E.N. “My family has had season tickets since 1970.

depression and prosperity. The young Kiwanis Club with 26 charter members assumed the sponsorship of the 80th annual Festival in 1939 (70 years ago). The GTHHA directors transferred the full title to the Festival to a new Board of young eager Kiwanians under the chairmanship of Dr. Foster Williams, a third generation community physician and the third generation of Williams physicians to chair the Harvest Home Committee. His father, Dr. John Williams and his grandfather, Dr. Peter Williams, were his predecessors in
both capacities. Foster Williams served as general chairman for 31 years, 1939-1970, and the Dr. Foster Williams Tot Lot on the Harvest Home Park grounds is a lasting memorial to his long-time dedication. He was designated as Chairman Emeritus until his death in 1976. The City of Cheviot had gained $25,000 from a bond issue to establish a municipal park on the historic site of Harvest Home Grove and the Village of Cheviot had purchased the land from the Harvest Home Association. The sole assets acquired by The Kiwanis Club were
Council starts with resident time This is the fourth in a series of articles to acquaint Cheviot residents with the inner workings of Cheviot city government and to encourage residents to attend council/committee meetings and/or become otherwise involved in city and community activities. Previously I discussed the administration and members of council. Let’s now look at council meetings. The order of events for the first half of a council meeting is: The president of council bangs the gavel and the Pledge of Allegiance is said and a moment of silence is observed. The clerk of council takes attendance of all the members of the City Council and the city administration that are present. I ask if there are any amendments to the agenda. Copies of the agenda are available to the public prior to the start of the meeting. I then review all the proposed ordinances and resolutions and committee reports that will be presented during the meeting. Council is asked to look over the minutes from the previous meeting and to verify that there are no errors. People requesting to address council relative to an agenda item shall normally be permitted to speak prior to the consideration of that item. This is where citizens can
approach council with questions or comments. Often council gives the citizen advice, the answer to their question, or additional help. Sometimes the council members will invite that citizen to attend a committee meeting to discuss the issue more in depth. This is the first time in the meeting where the public can address council. Each member of City Council will read the report of their committee meetings into the official record. After a city official or committee chairperson submits a report for council, the members of council take a voice vote to receive and file the report. Once passed, the clerk of council adds the report to the official record. Council then handles proposed legislation. An ordinance is a law that is used to solve problems, such as what the speed limit on a particular street will be. Typically, an ordinance will affect most of the citizens of Cheviot and is used for more important rules within the city. Sometimes an ordinance will take three meetings to pass, but more often than not, someone will make a motion to suspend the rules which means they are only going pass the ordinance in just the one reading. After an ordinance has been through its three readings or the
PRESS
rules have been suspended, a roll call vote is taken because the record must show who agreed to Debbie pass the law and McKinney who didn’t. A resolution is Community a general rule that Press guest is used to solve a columnist problem, such as moving funds from one part of the budget to another part. Generally a resolution does not affect the general population directly as it is used for less important items. There is a voice vote to whether or not to adopt the resolution. The next article will discuss the second half of a council meeting. Please join us at the next council meeting or check the Web site for committee meetings which may interest you. The public is always invited to express their opinion on agenda items or any other city related issue. If you are unable to attend the meetings, feel free to e-mail any member of council or the administration with your concerns. The links can be found on the city Web site www.cheviot.org.

Speed bumps: Common sense solution Monfort Heights Drive is a close-knit little neighborhood, spun with young families, senior citizens and neighbors who have lived on our street for decades. For years, our street and Arrow Avenue have been used as a cutthrough (to and from North Bend and Boomer roads) by drivers who don’t always observe the speed limit. This creates a troubling safety issue. Adding to ever-increasing levels of traffic on the two major roads, the traffic problem on our residential street is expected to increase when a major new development goes in behind St. Ignatius. With safety concerns in mind, we residents asked Green Township Trustee Tracy Winkler to help us. After almost a year of discussion, at an informal meeting on June 2, several well-researched options were presented by Green Township as solutions to help slow the traffic on our street. A traffic engineer had been hired and studied present conditions, conditions as they are to exist once the planned improve-
ments on North Bend have been completed, and also future conditions. Speed bumps were suggested as a solution that could help immeWow! Julie diately. Speed bumps resGallenstein onated with us.

This was a common sense solution in which we as a neighborhood would be able to participate and help measure the results. Now, Monfort Heights Drive could be used as a test street for Green Township. If all goes well on our street, the process to implement the installation of speed bumps on other streets in Green Township will proceed.

“lumber, seats, ropes, flag, tables, buildings (but not the dance pavilion) and the right to use the Harvest Home Park for the Festival.” Lacking operating cash, it was necessary for Kiwanis to raise a ‘starter fund’ to underwrite their first festival and a fund of $270.50 was subscribed by individual Kiwanians and community businesses that were just emerging from the great Depression. With that pool, the 80th annual Festival wound up $112.25 in the black! Dr. William Gerhardt is the historian for the Cheviot-Westwood Kiwanis.

post card asking our opinion. The township will need 60 percent of residents to return the postcards and 70 percent of those who respond must vote for the installation of the speed bumps. We are hoping that the speed bumps will be approved. The good neighbors of Monfort Heights Drive welcomed the opportunity to have worked with Fred Schlimm and Tracy Winkler, and are grateful the trustees voted to approve the ”street calming” resolution Aug. 10. We are honored to be the first street to test the effectiveness of speed bumps in Green Township. We are a watchful neighborhood, so we will monitor the effectiveness of this measure and keep the township up to date with any concerns. Traffic should be a little slower this fall on Monfort Heights Drive. As the school year begins, the children and neighbors will be safer when traffic slows to approach the new speed bumps on our street. Julie Gallenstein is a resident of Monfort Heights Drive.

Despite finishing at 1213 in 2008, Oak Hills High School aims to compete for a league title while also hoping for a successful tournament run this fall. Oak Hills finished with a league record of 6-3 in the Greater Miami Conference while taking fourth place last fall. Lakota East (19-5, 9-0) finished first in the GMC followed by second-place Mason (19-3, 8-1) and third-place Lakota West

Mother of Mercy High School’s Megan Wanstrath unleashes a kill against McAuley in the Division I Regional Semifinal at Butler High School in 2008. Mercy won 3-0 and should have a good team again in 2009. (15-12, 7-2). The Highlanders lost in a Division I sectional championship game to Lakota West in 2008. A number of varsity players return for sixth-year head coach Jim Delong including Rachel Eubanks, Caraline Maher, Lauren Engleman, Kelsie Fieler, Megan Keller, Kelsey Wright, Rachel Ruehl, Nicole Setters and Emily Gibbemeyer. Eubanks finished with 241 kills and was named to the second team of the All
GMC squad last fall. Maher finished with 181 kills in 2008. Wright finished second in the GMC with 591 kills last season. Lindsey Massa will be an immediate contributor as a key new addition for Oak Hills. Oak Hills last won a GMC title in 2007 before finishing in fourth place in 2008. From 2000-2004, Oak Hills won five-consecutive GMC titles on the volleyball court.
The Seton volleyball team has a new head coach in Sara Redman and the Saints will look to get back on track after a 5-16 2008. Redman was 41-9 as a coach at Chaminade Julienne 2006-2007. Seton returns starters Emily Averbeck, Elle Schwartz, Sarah Ritter and Andrea Gentile. Carly Graman and Maria Svec are two new players who could develop into key contributors as well. “We hope to build a winning record and get back on track,” Redman said. “We have the talent and I believe the girls are really excited about the season.”
Taylor
Taylor High School finished third in the CHL in 2008 and could be poised for a better finish in 2009. The Yellow Jackets return
seven starters from their 17-7 2008 squad. Returning are Stephanie Bates, Melanie Corbett, Karen Getz, Sabrina Lemmink, Angela Marco, Allyson Rountree and Allie Sander. Lemmink is a four-year starter and was an All-District player in 2008 and Corbett was the team's MVP in 2008. The team also has a promising newcomer in freshman middle blocker Christina Dilley. Head coach Jessica Bates said the team is looking forward to the start of the season. “I like our drive to be league champions,” she said. “The girls have a lot of experience playing together and they will be comfortable playing together. “Our toughest games will be against Indian Hill and Wyoming, but we look forward to playing those teams. Our fans are great and those are always big games,” she said.
Western Hills
The Western Hills High School volleyball team went 14-6 overall in 2008 and went 10-1 in the CMAC. The team returns several key players in Asia Dillingham, Allyndra Dillingham, Brittany Autenrieb and KikI Mitchell. Desiree Adams and Simone Woods are two strong new players. “I like their dedication and determination,” head coach Peggy J. Peebles said of the 2009 squad. “They are hungry for another league title. They understand what it takes to be successful.”

underclassmen will also contribute including Ashley Goebel, Jamie Frolicher and Megan Wittich. “The underclassmen … have shown consistent improvement throughout the preseason,” Corman said. “In addition, we have an outstanding freshman (Wilhelmus) who will contribute greatly to our success as well.”

The season is in for high school girls’ tennis and several teams should have successful seasons.
Oak Hills
A trio of returning starters and the addition of a freshman standout look to make losing seasons a thing of the past for Oak Hills High School. After finishing at 6-8 last season, a trio of players return including Katelyn Gilkey, Jackie Ehrman and Maddie Bieber. Freshman Emma Wilhelmus and newcomer Kate Huber will also make immediate contributions, thirdyear head coach Tom Corman said via e-mail. “The girls have been

The Mother of Mercy High School’s tennis team went 10-8 in 2008 and has a talented team in 2009. The team returns starters Heather Smith, Madeline Tucker and Caroline Sullivan. Head coach Candice Jones, in her second year at the helm of the program, also has a promising new player in Lizzie Miller.
“It should be a challenging but fun rebuilding season,” Jones said.
Seton
The Seton High School tennis team returns five starters from a 10-7 2008 squad and should be a very deep team in 2009. Senior Danielle Custer and juniors Kelly Simpkins, Cathie Bisher, Katy Schwaeble and Ellie Cook return for the Saints. The team also adds some promising new players in seniors Sarah Hensley, Natalie Watson and Jenna Bailey and juniors Kilee Weiskittel and Laney Sportsman. “I really have no great No. 1 but I don’t lose anything after our No. 1. We are good all the way though,” said head coach Bill Mathews. “We may not

have any great players but we have no real weaknesses either.” Mathews said he expects the team to be the best on the west side of the city and that he expects to finish in the middle of the league, behind loaded tennis teams at Mount Notre Dame, Ursuline and St. Ursula. Mathews said new Seton Athletic Director Janie Shaffer is a big supporter of tennis and he hopes that will help more people become interested in the sport. “Hopefully we can push more girls into tennis in the future,” he said. “We do have an excellent junior varsity team this year so we may be even better next year.” The Press did not receive Taylor High School’s tennis information before press time.

Bed & Breakfast
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…
