BECAUSE COMMUNITY MATTERS
Combs stores debris on Parker Road Neighbors complain, storage is legal By John Seney jseney@communitypress.com
GOSHEN TWP. — Neighbors of Donnie Combs on Parker Road have complained to township officials about the scrap recycling businessman storing containers of debris on his residential property. Teri Donahoe, township zoning director, confirmed she has received complaints about debris containers being placed on Combs’ Parker Road property. Don McKinney, who lives on Parker Road, said he is one of the residents who complained. McKinney said he has seen at least nine Dumpsters on Combs’
Parker Road property. The Dumpsters have been placed there within the past several weeks, he said. “I’ve lived here 40 years,” McKinney said. “Now he (Combs) is doing here what he’s done on Ohio 28.” Combs owns a scrap and recycling business at 1503 Ohio 28. Clermont County Common Pleas Judge Thomas Herman Jan. 25 told Combs he could not to accept any more scrap materials at his Ohio 28 business after he failed to comply with a court order to remove at least 200 tons of solid waste from the business every 30 days. The court order was issued after the Clermont County General Health District took Combs to court for having the debris on his property.
Donahoe said the containers of debris on Parker Road are not coming from the Combs business on Ohio 28. “I have made several site visits to the property on Parker Road and pictures have been taken,” she said. Combs confirmed the containers are on his property, but said he is doing nothing illegal. He said the containers are legal because they are stored there temporarily. “This is not the final disposition,” he said. Combs said he plans to recycle the materials in the containers on his Parker Road property. He said there is nothing toxic or hazardous in the debris. Donahoe said she sent several letters to Combs about the Parker Road debris and has spoken with
Earley going to Williamsburg Eckert named as next principal at CNE High School By Theresa L. Herron and Lisa J. Mauch clermontnews@communitypress.com
WILLIAMSBURG — Clermont Northeastern High School Principal Matt Earley was named the new superintendent of the Williamsburg Local School District May 16. Earley will replace Superintendent Jeff Weir, who is leaving July 31 to become the superintendent of the Clermont County Educational Service Center. Before becoming principal at CNE three years ago, Earley was principal at Williamsburg High School for six years. “It was very much the board’s desire to bring Matt back to Williamsburg. Matt was held in high regard for the work he did here and his service to the high school,” said Weir about Earley. Last year, the CNE school board announced Earley would replace former CNE Superintendent Neil Leist. He was scheduled to start Aug. 1. Earley said sometimes in life timing is everything and he couldn’t control the timing of the Williamsburg job becoming available.
“I’m a part of that community as a parent and a resident, so there would only be one place I would leave CNE for and that would be goEarley ing back to Williamsburg, back to where I came from,” said Earley. “It’s a great community with great students and parents and I’m looking forward to working with all these students, teachers, parents and community members to continue to deliver great education at Williamsburg,” he said. Earley said he submitted his resignation to the CNE board Friday, May 17, and anticipates it being accepted at the Monday, May 21, school board meeting. He said John Eckert, the principal at Lockland high and middle schools for the past four years, would take his place as CNE principal. Earley said Eckert also spent more than a decade as a teacher, coach and administrator in the Batavia Local School District. Wayne Johnson has been serving as the CNE interim superintendent. He is scheduled leave that role July 31. The position for the CNE superintendent has been posted, said Mike Freeman, school board member.

him. “I have had numerous conversations with Mr. Combs regarding the act of being a good neighbor,” she said. “The Goshen Township zoning regulations allow for containers on a residential property if they are leakproof and have a tarp over them,” Donahoe said. “Obviously, that regulation was meant for construction debris while a home is being renovated or demolished.” “Again, Mr. Combs has found another hole in the regulations and is using it to his advantage,” she said. Donahoe said the zoning regulations do allow Combs to have a home-based business in an area that is zoned residential. “In my discussions with Mr. Combs, he has assured me that as
soon as he is allowed to bring his containers to the property on Ohio 28, all containers on Parker Road will be removed,” she said. Donahoe said township officials plan to file paperwork to take Combs to mediation and “let the court close up the holes in our regulations.” Combs said he is continuing to clean up the Ohio 28 property. “I’ve been cleaning it up every day,” he said. Combs said he wanted to build an eight-foot wall along the front of his property to block the view from Ohio 28. Donahoe told him an eightfoot wall was not allowed under township zoning regulations. He said he recently parked some semi-trailers along the front of the property to block the view.

Click it or Ticket campaign now underway The National Click It or Ticket campaign was kicked off in style last week at a special celebration at the new Smale Park at the Banks in Cincinnati. The Click It or Ticket effort is sponsored nationally by NHTSA, the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration,
and supported locally by law enforcement agencies. The goal is to bring awareness to residents about the importance of wearing seat belts. Despite much awareness and encouragement, an average of only 84 percent of United States residents buckle up. Locally, right here in
COMMUNITY JOURNAL NORTH CLERMONT
Clermont County, the seat belt rate is only 78 percent. Sites are surveyed twice a year by Clermont County Safe Communities, a program of the Clermont County Health District. Safe Communities also works with many local police agencies to support Click It or Ticket. On Friday, May 18, Safe Communities partnered with Felicity
schools and the Felicity Police Department to publicize the importance of buckling up. The students and residents of the area were able to see a rollover vehicle and witness exactly what could happen if a crash victim is unbelted. Participating in the regional kick-off in Cincinnati were Ohio State Patrol Trooper Jason McElfresh, Milford PD
Officer Russ Kenney, Amelia Officer Olsen, Loveland Detective Brandon Burch, Ohio State Patrol Sgt. Brian Bost, Clermont County Sheriff Deputy Matt Wurtz, and Miami Township Office Kyle Ball. All local law enforcement participates in Click It or Ticket. Martha Enriquez, coordinator of Clermont County Safe Communi-
ties, reminds everyone to “Buckle Up. Every Day. Every Trip. Don’t just wear your seat belt to avoid a ticket.” “Buckle up to protect yourself and your family,” she said. Every year there are fatalities in Clermont County that would no doubt be avoided if the decision had been made to wear a seat belt.

to $540,000, down from $625,000 in 2011. Chris Clingman, district director, said 67 percent of the park district is funded through local property taxes: About $3.07 a year for every $100,000 in home value. State taxes are 10 percent of the district’s funds, while fees and donations amount to the remaining 23 percent. “Luckily, we did some things a couple of years ago to prepare for these cuts coming down from the state level, but it is still making things hard,” said Clingman. Park officials initiated program fees and rental costs for park-owned property to offset the cuts. According to the Clermont County Commissioners 2011 Annual Report, park facilities were rented 430
times during 2011. “Without those rental fees we would be in a lot worse situation,” Clingman said. Clingman and the park board must eliminate a full-time park maintenance technician, Clingman as well as drop another full-time position to part-time, he said. Of the many duties of a park maintenance technician, one of the most important is to mow, trim and keep the parks “looking good,” Clingman said. “We have plans on how we are going to keep everything looking good with less staff and time,” he said. “We have feared, but
anticipated this problem so hopefully we can keep up.” Clingman has met with officials from other regional park districts to discuss how to handle the cuts. He said districts, including Clermont County Park District, have been “actively” searching for sponsorships and are sharing resources to save money. The park district has partnered with the Clermont County Health District as another revenue generating idea to jointly apply for grant opportunities. The money gained by grants would be used to complete the Williamsburg to Batavia Hike Bike Trail. For more information, call Clingman at 732-2977.

Clermont County jail to get ‘green’ roof This will be a first for county-owned buildings, expected to save money By Lisa J. Mauch lmauch@communitypress.com
CLERMONT COUNTY —
The new roof for the Clermont County Jail may be white in color, but it will be “green” in nature. Instead of replacing it with a traditional rubber roof, a white one will be installed to save energy and
money, said Wade Grabowski, facilities management director for Clermont County. “This is the first (white roof) we’ve done in county. We excited to have it,” he said. “It’s cutting our energy usage cost. In the summertime, it reflects the heat away from the building
and reduces our energy costs for cooling,” said Steve Rabolt, county administraRabolt tor. The county commissioners approved $183,278 for the roof at the April 4 meeting. Grabowski said even though a traditional roof would be less expensive -
Grabowski
between $165,000 to $168,000 the white roof will save the county money over time and eventually
pay for itself. He said it will take about 10 years for the energy savings to pay the roof off, and since it has a life expectancy of 25 years, “all the money after
that is back in our pockets.” Grabowski said the jail has three sections and the roof is original to the oldest sections, which was built in the mid-1980s. “We will reduce our energy cost in that section of the building by 7 to 9 percent per season. As long as we’re in the cooling mode, the air conditioning mode, we’re saving money,” said Grabowski. Grabowski said the other two sections of the jail
have newer roofs, which won’t need replacing for another 20 years, but a white roof will replace the old one on the 1983 section of the medical social services building on Clermont Center Drive. “If we can become green and it’s cost-effective for the county, then we will do that,” said Rabolt. Rabolt said the new jail roof would be installed within the next few months.

aren’t just for the Moscow area but for all of Clermont, Brown and Adams counties and those impacted in Kentucky. Households that suffered damage to their
homes can qualify for a grant of up to $20,000 toward reconstruction, acquisition or repair for their primary residence. These are grants, not loans, so the money does not have to be paid back.

MILFORD — Brad Theilman, a University of Cincinnati prejunior studying biomedical engineering and mathematics, has been awarded a scholarship from the Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Foundation, the premier undergraduate award in mathematics, science and engineering. Theilman from Milford is one of 282 Goldwater Scholars this year, selected on the basis of academic merit from a field of 1,123 students nominated by the faculties of colleges and universities nationwide. The scholarship, which provides up to $7,500 per year for up to two years, is awarded annually to outstanding sophomores and juniors who intend to pursue research-oriented careers in mathematics, the natural sciences and engineering. Theilman credits UC with both exposing him to a wide variety of academic opportunities and helping him narrow his interests into his career goal: Be-
coming a research professor studying how information is processed in biological neural networks. At UC, Theilman is a member of the University Honors Program, which comprises the top 5 percent of UC’s undergraduate students. As a freshman, he received a Cincinnatus scholarship award of $80,000 over four years to pay for tuition, room and board, books and fees. Outside of his academic interests, Theilman serves as president of UC’s amateur radio club and regularly uses amateur radios to talk with people far away from UC’s uptown campus. This summer, he will continue to explore his research interests as an undergraduate scholar at Janelia Farm Research Campus, a biomedical research center and part of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Ashburn, Va.

Students find, study turtles Each spring McCormick students find quarter-size water turtles around the school building. This is the first year to discover an adult red-ear slider making her way across the playground toward the field and pond beyond. These semiaquatic turtles lay several clutches of eggs a season. They can live from 45 to 60 years.
James Buchanan and Michael Meadors show the size of this female red ear slider. Males of this species are smaller than the female. The boys in Krista Hawkey class discovered the turtle during an afternoon break. THANKS TO MARY PAT HARRIS
Students worked in small groups measuring the length and width of the carapace on this red ear slider. They checked the leg length and claws on the front as that is one indicator to determine the gender of the turtle. This turtle measured just over 23 centimeters in length and 14 inches in width. McCormick students measuring are Adam Davis, Jack Beyer, Seth Eastham, Emily Abas and Adia Cook. THANKS TO MARY PAT HARRIS

Eagles close the book on 2012 season
Emerging youth mean bright future By Tom Skeen tskeen@communitypress.com
MILFORD — After recording a straight set victory over Loveland in the opening round of the Division I boys state volleyball tournament, Milford coach Brian Croston knew what was ahead of them. It was the Elder Panthers, the No. 2 seed in the South Region. While the ninth-seeded Eagles lost in straight sets, Croston was happy with the way the season went and how his guys played against the Panthers. “It was a great season,” he said. “(The game against Elder) I thought went really well. We knew what we were up against. At one point we had them at 17-17 in game one, and we were getting great blocks, we were aggressive at the net and the guys were digging balls that were just being pounded at us. They took a timeout and just turned it into another gear.” The Panthers would go on to win the first set 25-18. Set two was a different story. Croston said his team made a lot of mistakes, lost focus and went on to drop the set 25-11. While the score of game three was the same as the second, the Eagles just couldn’t get things to go their way. “It wasn’t like we couldn’t pass it,” Croston said. “We were in each point, we just didn’t win the point. It was a fun season and I could see that permeate in their attitude (against Elder).”
Senior Brett Van Cuawenbergh has been a big contributor this season. “He started playing his sophomore year has developed each year,” Croston said. “He turned into a great hitter this year and was just fantastic for us.” Kyle Danahy and Ty Heinmiller are outside hitters and had a great end to their season. “This is their second year at the varsity level and both had their best match (against Elder),” Croston said. “They didn’t shy away from Elder. They were both awesome.” Maybe one of the biggest surprises this season was the emergence of sophomore Trevor Bullock. Croston recruited the 6’4 sophomore from the basketball team. “He had never played volleyball,” Croston said. “We turned him into a volleyball player and he has a legit shot to play college volleyball. If he wants to improve, I’m not going to put pressure on him, but there is money out there and I think he is going to be heavily recruited over the next two years.” The problem for programs like Milford and Loveland is they don’t have a conference to play in and there is no natural feeder system. Some of those problems could be coming to an end. “We played Loveland three times this year,” Croston said. “We both don’t have a conference which is tough, but it is what it is. They are in the same boat as us. Hopefully there is going to be a new conference created or we can persuade a conference to make volleyball a conference sport.”
Senior Tanner Sanders went 6 1/3 innings against New Richmond to pick up the victory. Sanders was on the mound and picked up wins in both of the Rockets’ sectional title games. TOM SKEEN/THE COMMUNITY PRESS
T
he Clermont Northeastern baseball team won its second sectional title in as many years after a 6-3 victory over New Richmond May 17. Senior Tanner Sanders pitched 6 1/3 innings, giving up just one hit and two
runs. Senior Aaron Wright came on to get the save. “It was the goal we set,” coach Mike Kirk said. “We set out to win the league, we had to split it, but couldn’t have split it with a better team (New Richmond). The sectional title
is a bonus. It’s not something we are used to, but we are getting accustom to it and we like it.” CNE lost to Bellefontaine 5-2 on May 19 in the district finals, according to Bellefontaine area media.
Eagles take FAVC East title Team bows out in tournament upset By Tom Skeen tskeen@communitypress.com
MILFORD — The Fort Ancient Valley Conference East Division title wasn’t decided until the final day of the regular season. With Loveland and Milford tied at the top, both teams underwent rain delays that pushed their final regular season games back to Monday, May 7. Loveland, who lost to Milford twice during the regular season, was playing Anderson,
while the Eagles had Little Miami in front of them. A win or loss by both teams would have meant a split championship, while a loss by one and a win by the other meant an outright champion. While both teams were favored to win, it took the Eagles extra innings to beat Little Miami 3-0 after beating them 15-1 a few days prior, while Loveland lost handily to Anderson 10-3 to give the Eagles the title. It was Milford’s third title since 2008 when they shared it with Anderson, Glen Este and Loveland, and they won it outright in 2010.
Milford senior pitcher Nick Paul got the win over Little Miami to improve to 7-0. Unfortunately the Eagles’ season didn’t end the way the team would have liked. After entering the postseason as the No.12 seed in Division I and notching a first-round bye, they Eagles were upset by the No. 17 seed Hamilton 8-6, May 10. Paul stood out his senior year, finishing the season 7-1 with a 2.49 ERA and 33 strikeouts in 45 innings. The team finished the season 17-10, tying their best win total since ’08.

Groups should work together excellent schools, low taxes, good fire and police protection, a historical log cabin and hopefully a new Ken park. It has Klosterman taken a long COMMUNITY PRESS time to get GUEST COLUMNIST where we are. If the people of Goshen could concentrate and work together instead of forming another group, I am sure we could move much faster in a direction that would take our community to greater heights. My suggestion would be combining the two organizations, working with the trustees, possibly the schools and make our community known as one of the most efficiently run in Clermont County. We could could set the example for all of Clermont County instead of being known as a politically-divided community known for skinning cats and Meth labs. You cannot accomplish this by tearing down businesses as both groups are trying to do, but try to support the businesses we have. It might be beneficial for this combined group to change zoning laws and make them less
restrictive so business can be more productive and attract new businesses. We are not Indian Hill and never will be. We are a country community catering to country hard working people. As a group, we can stop beating a dead horse and do something really constructive by pushing the trustees as an unified group, to be more careful how they spend taxpayers’ money and start thinking outside the box. Maybe an arts and recreation center. Start working on things that will help Goshen, forget about harassing businesses and start helping them by working with them and understanding their needs and problems. Goshen seems to have a method of frightening business away by their zoning. If you do not want any business, then move to Indian Hill. You know there are a lot of brains out there, put them all together, work together and forget about politics. We can build Goshen ... do it right - do it now - do it right now.

His church was damaged in the March 2 tornado. The county proclamation was presented to John Hale for his many years of being the soloist during this prayer service. Praying for our country was David Caudill, former clerk of courts while the Auditor Linda Fraley did a Bible reading from Psalms 33:11-12. Before the reading, Fraley thanked everyone for their prayers after the death of Batavia Township Trusteeelect Jim Bushman. Noted soloist, John Hale, sang some of our beloved patriotic songs.

Perhaps I am a bit confused. I thought we’ve had an organization in place for about seven years. I understand Goshen Homeowners Association is led by Jane Schmidbauer. The other organization, Concerned Citizens of Goshen, is led by George Jones. It appears both have the same objective(s). I have spoken with others regarding these organizations and all agree both groups are for the betterment of Goshen. Both groups claim they are not politically inspired, however both have conflicting interests. In my opinion, it is obvious they are both politically inspired. In the last general election, the Jones group supported the incumbents and conversely, Schmidbauer’s new group, supported the people in her organization who were past trustees. It appears we now have two different political organizations, similar to Republican and Democrats, that are trying to divide the community rather than pulling it together. Most of the people I have spoken to are tired of politics, the dividing of the community, being pulled in different directions. Goshen really has only a few good things going for our community, besides good people,

County Task Force decided to host a “Pastor Appreciation Day” on National Day of Prayer. We would like to send out a big “thank you” to Pastor Dale Campfield and Eastgate Community Church, for the beautiful buffet that his committee prepared for pastors and their guests. After this delicious brunch everyone was invited to join us at the Court House steps for the annual Noon Prayer Service. A special thank you to soloists: Jennifer Thomas, Marcia Hacker, Eve Moody and children. Pastor John Martin of Eastgate Community Church prayed for our children, America’s future. As our prayers go up, we know that God’s blessings of freedom, faith and family come down. May we never forget to pray 365 days a year ... God bless America, America bless God.

CH@TROOM May 16 question Should Ohio eliminate its state income tax? Why or why not?
“I think the elimination of a state's income tax, substituting sales tax and taxes on energy, gambling and alcohol, is attractive. But if Ohio were to do something like this it should be done by steps. “The biggest problem in our tax code today is that it is used as a playground by lawmakers who see so much special subsidy in the existing law that they can't resist the temptation to add more. “In my opinion, the second biggest problem is that we are cheating our children out of a good education by all the goofy provisions in school funding. Maybe the solution to the first problem will come if we solve the second problem. “Ohio needs a tip-top school system, and it should be funded equally in every district, regardless of who has what power plant or which industry makes it's home where. It is encouraging to see progress in recent years, and it would be good to get recommendations from the Cleveland and Cincinnati school administrators as to why they are able to make progress. “It isn't all about more money, but some of it is. And some of it is spent poorly, on buildings that ought to last until next century but are going to require energy as if it were priced during the last century. “Let's not give in to the temptation to dumb our own dialogue down. Eliminating the state income tax is potentially a vehicle for really smart tax reform. But it could also be used to exaggerate the inequities and further skew the overall tax code. “One thing is for certain Ohio's government works better when all three branches (House, Senate and governor's office) are not in the hands of the same party. That's just history. If we want to talk about changing the tax code we should talk about the details.” N.F. “Ohio income tax ... how does the state currently use it? I just know I have to pay it, but I'm not sure how the state allocates the money received from individuals who pay their state income tax. “For residents of Ohio who are still unemployed, not having to pay Ohio income tax would be wonderful.

having a very rough time making ends meet not having to pay income tax would make a difference. I'm all for eliminating it unless the state can tell me how they use it and I feel the purpose does benefit us all.” E.E.C. “Yes, states with no income tax are growing much faster than those with an income tax. We desperately need the jobs that this will bring.” T.H. “I worked for several years before Ohio income tax was deducted from my paychecks in the early 1970s. I am also old enough to recall a 3 percent state sales tax with no local option for an added tax; that was half of what it is today. “The inflation-adjusted amounts that Ohio now gets from these newer sources of income far exceeds what it once needed to run the entire state. For the life of me I cannot see any added benefits I personally receive from this huge inflow of cash. “On top of all that, the governor tells us that the replacement for the Brent Spence bridge must be a toll-bridge in order to pay for it. The state will surely squawk if the income tax is done away, but it might be the shock therapy it needs to get its priorities finally straightened out!” R.V. “I do not like having to pay Ohio state income tax, nor do I like the nuisance of filing a return. But I have nothing on which to base an opinion on repeal of that tax, other than selfishness. “I have a strong hunch that the state would really suffer if that tax were not available. What I would like to see is a report from the state regarding how the collected taxes are allocated. I did some cursory research, and couldn't find anything on it.” Bill B.
Memorial Day message from 1890 also good for today We have no other holiday like this. It is not a day for noise and exuberant exhilaration of patriotism, but for that more quiet and subdued kind. The kind that stirs our inner most sentiments of love and devotion to our country and a reconciliation to the underlying and enduring principles of our union. It is not a day for simple recreation and enjoyment in which our own gratification and amusement is to be considered. I can hardly see how anyone can let such a day be passed in thoughtless pleasure seeking and forget that all over this broad land there is being celebrated our own deliverance as a nation from the horrors of civil war . Go
where you will east, west, north or south - in the COMMUNITY PRESS crowded city GUEST COLUMNIST cemeteries or in the quiet country church yard, you will find the various procession . Some small in numbers and in a quiet and subdued way, winding the way to the cemeteries to crown with flowers the graves of the patriots dead. It is always a sad thought to me on Memorial Day that there are many undecorated graves, thousands sleep in forgotten resting places and are numbered with the unknown.

knowledge of their lonely grave that we should endure as a republic. At the national cemetery at Arlington, there is a beautiful monument dedicated to the unknown dead, which marks the last resting place of over 4,000 soldiers who died in and around the capital and whose identity could not be established. It is heaped with flowers each Decoration Day and a touching public service held there by a loving and patriotic people. But to the brave men who sleep in the tangled thickets of the wilderness in the swamps of the Chickamauga or the dark bayous of the Mississippi, this grave service is denied. But their
memory and their service deeds cannot be and is not forgotten by a grateful people. And while they with the unknown dead cannot be and are not forgotten by a grateful people, they are publicly honored. Now what is the lesson to be learned from Memorial Day? Is it not to teach all and especially the rising generation who know nothing of war, the duty of patriotism, and instill into their minds love of country and respect and love for the men who bravely battled for its life.

VVA chapter again honored as ‘Chapter of the Year’ By Lisa J. Mauch lmauch@communitypress.com

Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 649 is a chapter so active, the state organizarion has now recognized it twice. The Buckeye State Council of the Vietnam Veterans of America named the group “Chapter of the Year” for the second year in a row. “It was pretty overwhelming because I don’t know anyone who’s won it two years in a row. We were pretty excited about it,” said Ken Williamson, chapter president. Every year, the Buckeye State Council recognizes a chapter for outstanding achievement in chapter membership, veterans’ services and community service. “We are the largest chapter in the state of Ohio with 170 members. We have about 120 more members than any other chapter in Ohio,” said Williamson. George Kinnaird, a Chapter 649 member and delegate to the state and national offices, said it’s this large, very active membership, that allows the chapter to provide veterans and the community with a variety of services. “One of things we do as far as veterans’ services is we hold a golf outing in September or October which is a fundraiser. It’s been successful the past couple of years,” said Kinnaird. He said money raised by the golf outing is used for food and gift baskets for veterans and their families. Kinnaird said the chapter also has sent
Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 649 members accepted the Chapter of the Year award for the second year in a row at the 2012 Buckeye State Convention. From left in front are: George Kinnaird and Wayne Gregory. Back row: Steve Tam, Don Sheppard, Jim Sullivan and Cliff Riley. PROVIDED phone cards to military personnel overseas and chapter members hold flag retirement ceremonies with Boy Scout troops. “(Another) thing we do is hold the 24-hour vigil recognizing the sacrifice made by our brothers and sisters every year,” said Kinnaird, referring the May 27 to May 28 event at Veterans Memorial Park in Union Township. The event begins at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 27, and ends at 2 p.m. Monday, May 28. He said chapter members help veterans and their families figure out their benefits and connect them to the right organization. “We are a conduit for that. Our organization’s primary motto is ‘Never again will one generation of veterans turn their back on another.’ We
want to make sure young men and women coming back today receive the recognition, the respect and the honors they deserve, that they’ve earned,” said Kinnaird. “What makes (the chapter) special are that the members care about doing things for the community and the veterans community especially,” said Williamson. “Winning the award is very prestigious for our chapter and our community. Everyone is very proud of it,” he said. VVA Chapter 649 meets at 7:30 p.m. the second Thursday of each month at the Union Township Civic Center, 4350 Aicholtz Road.

Rita shares her friend’s tabouleh recipe Memorial Day is approaching and, with it, we honor our veterans. It’s a day for remembering all those who have gone before us. Three generations of our family attend Rita outdoor Heikenfeld Mass at St. RITA’S KITCHEN Philomena Church. My mom and dad are buried there, so afterwards I decorate their graves with mom’s mint along with marigolds and zinnias, my dad’s favorite flowers. Memorial Day signals the start of the picnic season, and these recipes fill the bill.
1 cup of No. 1 fine bulghur wheat (cracked wheat) 2 bunches parsley 1 cup fresh mint leaves 6 green onions 6 fresh tomatoes Juice of 3 lemons ¼ cup oil Salt and pepper to taste
Helen Sarky’s tabouleh (tabooli salad)
When a reader asked for this beloved cookie from the now-closed Fort Thomas, Ky., bakery, it brought on a slew of requests along with great memories from former customers. I spoke to Carole, sister of owner Pete Wiedeman, and she found a recipe close to what the bakery offered. I was going to use that recipe, but then I got really lucky. I was able to contact Pete, her brother, who owned the bakery and is now 86 years old. It has an interesting history. Their father was the head pastry chef at Hotel Metropole. He and his wife started the bakery in Cincinnati in 1940 and moved to Fort Thomas in 1941. All eight kids
Helen and I are “sitties,” Lebanese grandmas. We both make tabouleh, the famous wheat and parsley salad. I’m sharing Helen’s today. This is a wonderful salad for that Memorial Day celebration. In fact, at the Lebanese Festival at St. Anthony of Padua Church, which is June 3 this year, it’s always one of the most popular offerings. “Sometimes I add seedless cucumbers. Everyone in my family loves it,” she told me. Like me, Helen uses small grape or leaf lettuce leaves as scoops.

Consider full value moving insurance
IN THE SERVICE Osborne
May is National Moving Month, the start the busiest time of the year for changing homes. But if you’re planning to move, there’s something you need to consider buying, even if the move is only a short distance. Judy Woods and her husband were only moving from one part of Maineville to another. They hired a moving company and everything went well at first. “The day after, I did laundry. I had done laundry about a day before we moved, I cleaned the

order to get it out of their other house. After a week, she says, a second man came to Howard look at the Ain washer, but HEY HOWARD! “he said because the washer was too new he’d have to call someone who was used to working on new washers,” Woods said. However, no one ever showed up even though Woods says she called the moving company several times. “They’re not going to help us … We read the contract and thought there would be no problems that someone would come out and fix our washer and that would be the end of it – but no one came out,” Woods said. So two weeks after the move, Woods said she decided to replace the washer. She paid about
sheets and stuff like that they moved with. I noticed that the washer wouldn’t spin out,” Woods said. Woods said she called the moving company and reported it after the washing machine stopped working completely. “There was a young fellow named Jason who came out here, he was a mover. He looked at it and he said he was going to have to call someone who worked on washers,” Woods said. She thinks the washer was damaged as a mover bounced the machine down a flight of steps in

ance when they move. It does cost more upfront, but it can eliminate a lot of headaches if something goes wrong later. Any lost or damaged articles will be repaired or replaced, or a cash settlement will be made to repair the item or replace it at its current market value regardless of age. Without such insurance you’re limited to the coverage the mover provides and the minimum required coverage is just 60 cents per pound. That certainly will not cover the replacement cost of a washing machine or flat panel television. In fact, a new federal law for interstate moves requires the cost of full value protection to be included in the estimate you receive.
$500 for a new machine because, she says, the moving company couldn’t seem to fix it and she really needed a washer. “We need to have our washer working. We’ve been to the laundromat now three times in between calls and it’s ridiculous,” Woods said. So I contacted the moving company and was told, “The Woods informed us they would hire a certified electrician to inspect the unit and would let us know the result. To date we had not heard the outcome of the inspection, and we had not denied any claims.” Fortunately, in this case the moving company has a good record with the Better Business Bureau and is a BBB member. Therefore, I suggested Woods file a complaint with the bureau and ask it to act as a mediator or arbitrator of this dispute. The American Moving Association recommends consumers purchase full replacement value insur-

Mark your calendars, plan to attend Memorial Day events Howdy folks, Mark your calendar for the Old Bethel Methodist Church Memorial Day service here at East Fork State Park. It will be Monday, May 28, at 10 a.m. Then the Legion, Scouts and American Heritage Girls will have their service at the cemetery at 11 a.m. The musicians for the service at the church are the Kinner Express. T,hey always have good music. The belfry has been repaired and looks great, so come and enjoy the service. Remember those who have gone on. Friday, the 50-plus couples from the Bethel United Methodist Church met at the church for their monthly meeting. There was a good crowd, which all enjoyed the evening. The church was decorated with quilts that the folks have made for the quilt show Saturday. The ladies that put them out did a wonderful job. The folks that came to see them were very impressed. The work that went into each quilt or other piece was a work of love and it took several hours and plenty of fingers stuck with the needles. Ruth Ann didn’t put her presidents quilt in as she did two years ago. We were set up with our crafts at the BAMFest in Burke Park. This event was wonderful. There
were several different displays. The Grant Trails antique tractor George club was Rooks there with several OLE FISHERMAN tractors. The crafters area, the food section and music by different groups was good. Now it would not have been a good event without the folks that make homemade ice cream by using their hit and miss engine, the Mannings. These folks are so wonderful and always have a smile for the people that enjoy their wonderful ice cream. This couple will be at the O.V.A.M. antique machinery Show Aug. 9, to Aug. 12 out of Georgetown. The Bethel Arts and Music Committee worked so hard and have done a wonderful job. I know it was lots of work and some headaches. When you see the folks of this committee, pat them on the back and tell them how you enjoyed the entire event especially the Hot Wax Group. Last week, we lost another fine friend. This feller and his wife were always ready to take the trips the 50-plus group did, and always were ready to help do different jobs when asked. This
couple had been married 67 years. This young feller was Owen Leonard. He and his wife were long-time members of the Bethel United Methodist Church. Owen had been a member for 74 years and his wife, Thelma, for 66 years. These folks have seen so many changes in the church, the different ministers, the construction of the present church and were very dedicated Christians, and loved each other and their family very much. The other morning I let Chessy out. She saw a squirrel and ran it up a tree. The squirrel got just up high enough then started barking at her. I know this upset the cat, because she came walking back to the porch. Monday, Ruth Ann and I picked spinach and rhubarb to put in the freezer to have this winter. She kept out enough rhubarb to make a pie for us to eat and put the other package in the freezer. The garden is growing good. We planted marigold flowers in the raised beds where we put tomatoes, hoping the deer won’t bother the tomatoes. I don’t think the deer have any taste buds. They even ate the yucca plants here some this winter. Ruth Ann and I are still working with the tornado folks for the Bethel Lions Club. There is still a need for help, so get with your neighbors
Some battle scars not visible
and ask what you can do to help them. Ruth Ann called the A& M Orchard and they said they started having the “pick your own strawberries” on Wednesday, May 16. If it rains they will not be open. That makes sense. It would be uncomfortable picking berries and rain dripping off your head. The fishing is good here at East Fork and I imagine at Stonelick Lake, too. The crappie, bass, catfish, bluegills and stripers are all being caught. There was a bass tournament here at East Fork last weekend and it took over 11 pounds to win the contest. That is some good size bass. Now for some bad news. The Riverside Coffee Mill in Batavia will be closing May 25 due to low business. They will be doing their insurance business at home. These folks are dedicated to their children and their church. The Grants Greenhouses and Farm have plenty of garden plants and honey bee supplies, trees, shrubs, mulch, potting soil and garden seeds, at : Milford, Ohio 131 or Bucktown Road. Start your week by going to the house of worship of your choice and praise the Good Lord. More later. God bless all.

Help is available for veterans suffering from PTSD Not all wounds are visible. UC Clermont student John Bentley said he knows the damage Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can do. The 29-year-old Union Township man, a 2001Glen Este High School graduate, has been receiving treatment for PTSD since serving 4.5 years with the Army that included duty in Iraq. “The things we have seen and experienced
leave scars,” he said. “Just because you can’t see them, doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Without treatment they can lead to depression, addiction and many other problems.” “PTSD can occur after someone goes through a traumatic event like combat, assault or a disaster,” said Dr. Jennifer Lewis, a psychologist affiliated with the VA Medical Center in Cincinnati. Bentley said treatment is easily available and it’s free, all you have to do is pick up the phone and make a call. For more information , visit www.ClermontCountyVeterans.com or call 732-7363.

Clermont County residents pause for prayers
Community Press staff report CLERMONT COUNTY — People from all over the county May 3 joined together in prayer. There were several observances throughout the day in honor of National Day of Prayer. In Batavia, several dozen people gathered in front of the courthouse at noon to listen to prayers, Bible readings and songs. “We are so blessed to have you out here,” said Clermont County Commissioner Bob Proud. Proud read a proclamation from the commissioners designating the day for Clermont County residents to pray. He presented the proclamation to New Richmond resident John Hale, who sang several patriotic songs at the event. “It’s to thank him for everything he has done for us,” Proud said of Hale. There were National Day of Prayer observances in Milford, Union Township, New Richmond and Bethel.
