GREEN IS AS GREEN DOES Promoting environmentallyfriendly communities takes planning, teamwork Community Press Staff Report

Green efforts can be found in all communities throughout the eastern corridor and beyond and can vary widely among communities. While some some communities work to assure recycling is widely available for residents, others staff arborists and laborers to care for green spaces and public places, and engage the talents of residents on committees.

Anderson Township Anderson Township is a community that clearly takes planet stewardship responsibilities seriously and took the lead on community green efforts in the early 1990s in becoming the first “Greenspace” township. During their campaign for office and shortly after they were first elected, former Anderson Township trustees Peggy Reis and Mike Walton pursued legislation allowing townships to acquire property in order to preserve it in its natural state, Anderson Township Administrator Vicky Earhart said. House Bill 717, which became effective in June 1990, permitted Ohio townships to do just that. “The township currently owns nearly 700 acres of property that will, by law, remain in a natural state,” she said. “The

HYDE PARK – A local church youth group is taking steps to combat malaria. The youth group at Hyde Park Community United Methodist Church has organized a 5K Run/Walk Saturday, April 16, at Otto Armleder Memorial Park and Recreation Complex, 5057 Wooster Pike, to raise money for the Imagine No Malaria campaign. Check in will be at 8 a.m. The race will be at 9 a.m. “I like the 5K because it’s a healthy alternative and a chance to build community,” said Ken Miller, director of student ministry at the church. Miller said planning for the fundraiser began in January. “Our church was asking groups in the church to think creatively on how to support this cause,” Miller said referring to the Imagine No Malaria ministry. Imagine No Malaria is a nationwide Methodist ministry geared toward ending malaria deaths in Africa through prevention, education, communication and treatment. A goal of the initiative is to raise at least $75 million. Miller said the church’s youth group came up with the

IMAGINE NO MALARIA 5K RUN/WALK » Saturday, April 16. Check in at 8 a.m. Race at 9 a.m. » Otto Armleder Memorial Park and Recreation Complex, 5057 Wooster Pike

idea for the 5K. He said several of the members participate in cross country and track. “The 5Ks are definitely growing in popularity,” Miller said. “We’ll be able to attract people who may be interested in helping.” He said the 5K will be for all ages and skill levels. The cost for those preregistering by Tuesday, April 12, is $20. Registration the day of the race will be accepted, but preregistration is recommended. The cost for registration the day of the 5K is $25. T-shirts are available for $10. Registration forms can be dropped off or mailed to the church, 1345 Grace Ave., Cincinnati 45208. Registration forms can be printed out from the online site at www.hydeparkchurch. org/imaginenomalaria. For information, call 9798179.

Local Earth Day events

Green

A rundown of local Earth Day and other beautification spring events:

street tree committee have earned the township the title of a Tree City USA community for consecutive several years. The Betterment and Beautification Committee is charged with improving the township’s visual appearance with landscape. Longtime committee member Sonia Shively said she hates to see historical things torn down or plants and trees just dug up. For these reasons she’s also a member of the township’s Historical Society. “Children nowadays do not quite understand how people used to live and what they did and the crops they grew and the flowers they planted,” she said. Through her work she hopes to raise the awareness of today’s youth, while simultaneously adding to the township’s beauty. Like other communities, Anderson also has a recycling program. The township recently received the Best Township Recycling Award from the Hamilton County Recycling and Solid Waste District. Anderson residents subscribe individually for curbside recycling. Nearly 60 percent of residents subscribe for the program. Anderson also provides for its community 27 recycling drop-off containers. Recycling focus is found in the Anderson Park District as well where recycling bins have been available for years in the parks, ExecDirector Ken utive Kushner said. Biodegradable Mutt Mitts are also available for picking up dog waste as well. There’s not picking up and bagging of grass clippings in the parks. Instead, Kushner said the clippings remain on the lawn. “That’s actually great for the grass,” he said. “There’s a lot of nutrients in the cuttings.” The removal of inva-

sive species is an ongoing project in Anderson Parks, especially Johnson Hills, Kushner said. Plantings are also important, Last year alone more than 1,200 trees were planted. The best thing park guests can do for the parks is to simply pick up their trash and put it in the trash can, Kushner said.

Mount Lookout

When it comes to recycling and landscape, there’s plenty happening Mount Lookout on Square. Mount Lookout Business Association/Community Council takes care of the square with landscaping, Kim Rice of Keepsake Photography Studio and business association/council member said. “We had a landscaper come out last year and totally spruced up the place,” she said. Mark Costello from the board headed up all the landscaping and he planted a lot of the pots himself. Last summer Mount Lookout became the third Cincinnati neighborhood to be selected as part of a business district recycling program. The first two were Northside and Mount Washington. Mount Lookout’s successful household recycling efforts earned the neighborhood this honor. In 2014 the Mount Lookout neighborhood was the top recycler in the City of Cincinnati at 83 percent, well above the citywide average of 65 percent. Rice said that the business district recycling program seems to be going well. Every once in a while the cans

overflow, but that issue seems to have been addressed, she said. Other Mount Lookout community efforts: » The Cincinnati Park Board has a program that partners with the community to share costs. Mount Lookout Community Council pays $200 per flower pot and the Park Board plants and waters the flower pots; » In May, the organization Go Cincinnati will provide volunteers to do some planting - this effort is in the works and details need to be developed; » The MLCC and Mount Lookout Business Association make a significant fund raising effort to pay a landscape company to do the regular maintenance of the square. » The city Urban Forestry program maintains the trees - replacing trees damaged as needed. This spring, they are having all the trees pruned to maintain them. » The Mount Lookout DevelopCommunity Corporation ment worked with the city to get the recycling bins placed on the square and the MLCDC has other imin the provements works.

Curbside programs and ‘Tree Cities’

Milford, Columbia Township, Union Township and Newtown have curb recycling and Milford and Columbia Township are Tree City USA communities as recognized by the Arbor Day Foundation. - Reporters Jeanne Houck, Forrest Sellers and Sheila Vilvens contributed to this story.

Summit Country Day » All three of The Summit Country Day School’s math teams competing in the University of Cincinnati Math Bowl received superior honors. In the competition, students compete as a team rather than competing individually. On the level calculus team were senior Jack Meyer of Symmes Township; juniors Matt LaMacchia of Symmes Township, Jinghan “Hailey” Zhang and Libin “Andrew” Zhou, both of Mason, and sophomore Wanyi “Sherry” Xiao of Norwood. On the level 2 algebra 2-geometry team were sophomores Shang Qing “Albert” Cao of Madeira and Keith Meyer of Symmes Township, and freshman Hanchen “Jeffery” Huang of Mount Adams. On the level 3 algebra team were eighth-graders William Fassler and Connie Nelson, both of Hyde Park; Ryan Burns of Anderson Township, Kathryn Sullivan of Salem Township in Warren County, and Jietong “Thomas” Zhang of Union Township in Clermont County. Upper School math teacher Eric Unwin is the Math Club moderator. » Three students at The Summit Country Day School have qualified to compete in the state math competition. The Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics host the annual competition. Students complete a set of 40 questions in one hour. The top 120 students across the state are then invited to complete at the state competition in Columbus. In team competition, OCTM takes the top four individual scores from each school and ranks the schools by division. The Summit’s math team qualified in third place overall in the small school competition with 115 points. The individuals who qualified to compete at state are senior Jack Meyer of Symmes Township, sophomore Wanyi “Sherry” Xiao, an international student from China who is living with a host family in Norwood, and freshman Hanchen “Jeffery” Huang, an international student from China who is living with a host family in Mount Adams. The students will compete Saturday, March 26, at Capital University in Columbus. Upper School math teacher Eric Unwin is the Math Club moderator. » Nearly 60 Lower and Middle School students from The Summit Country Day School featured art pieces in the Festival in the Woods Art Show at the Blue Ash Recreation Center. The annual festival is a celebration of the arts that features artwork from local students in kindergarten through grade 12.

School inducted 44 students into the National Honor Society. David Armstrong, president of Thomas More College, spoke to inductees, their families and Upper School faculty members and students during the ceremony about the tenets of the NHS and how those qualities shape students into leaders of character. “What we should ask ourselves one day is this: ‘How did

we make a positive difference in the lives of those we are privileged to serve?’” Armstrong said. “It’s wonderful to see students living their mission, and that you are walking the walk.” Local juniors who were inducted into NHS were: Elise Becker, Hayden Boggs, Nick Carcieri, Katherine Cummings, Hannah Fassler, Claire Hellmann, Emma Hellmann, Alejandra Valencia, Caroline Walton, all of Hyde Park; Christopher Samaan of ColumbiaTusculum, Hayes Snyder of Terrace Park, Brooke Taylor of Mariemont » In addition to more than a dozen individual Best of Show, first-place awards and a state championship certamen team, The Summit Country Day School placed second overall at the 2016 Ohio Junior Classical League convention.

Get creative with salads, right down to the bowls One of the loveliest things about spring is enjoying a proper English spring time tea. That’s what I did a couple weeks ago when I presented at the Boone County Arboretum’s annual English tea. The tables were all themed and decorated individually by members of the Arboretum. They brought out their best china, silver and linen for the event, and the tables ran the gamut of whimsical with grapevine leaf chargers under country plates, to Rita elegant with heirloom Heikenfeld china and sparkling crystal. RITA’S KITCHEN Stephanie Schenk and Kathy Bailey had everything organized, from the spring blooms decorating the presentation area to the servers, who looked quite like proper English women. The food, made by Donna Wilmhoff, a Union, Kentucky, reader, was as tasty as it was beautiful. Donna and her staff made six savory items and six sweet items. Donna told me she’s been doing the food for the tea for five years and each year she comes up with 12 different items. No kidding, every bite I ate was delicious and so beautifully presented. Donna started in the food business by taking classes when her oldest son was a baby, years ago. “I’ve always had a love of cooking and gardening” Donna told me. So Donna made a successful career as a caterer and master gardener. She combines these talents when cooking. You’ll know what I mean when you glance at the photo of the delicious, and visually stunning, spring salad in a Frico cup. Of course, I wouldn’t tease you with just the photo. Donna has kindly shared the recipes for the Frico cup, salad and

Spring salad in a Frico cup Frico cups are made with Parmesan cheese. Just be careful not to overbake them and immediately remove them from the oven and drape over an overturned custard cup or other small bowl right away, as detailed in these instructions. Frico cups: 1 (16 oz) bag pre- shredded Parmesan cheese

Salad: 2 cups spring mix lettuce 1/4 cup radish slices 1/4 cup matchstick carrots 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions 1/4 cup fresh or frozen thawed green peas Grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in half

To make Frico cups: Preheat oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese in 1/4 cup portions into 4” circle. Bake for 8 minutes. Using a metal spatula quickly remove cheese rounds from baking sheet and drape over an overturned custard cup, pressing into bowl shape. Let cool completely. Remove from custard cups and store in airtight container. THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD

Notes from readers’ kitchens

Empty tomb buns Tri County reader Meredith B. made these with her 10-year-old granddaughter. She sent me a photo of her granddaughter with the biggest smile, holding the buns on a tray. A young mom stopped me in the grocery and told me she made them with her two little boys. “Very fun,” she said. Mississippi roast Several readers responded that they made this with chuck roast with great success. “Less expensive than tri-tip,” noted one West side reader. 7-can soup “I was intrigued and thought this

couldn’t possibly work,” said one reader. She made it, loved it and took leftovers to work the next day.

Accuracy? Are you kidding me? James Baker appears to me to be a person who likes to say or this case write words with little knowledge of what he speaks, he sounds like the perfect candidate for the presidency of this great nation. One of the reasons slaves were brought from the Caribbean to what is now the U.S. in 1619 is because there was not a work force in the area at that time, by contrast many European countries had a population base that exceeded their ability to absorb which were either forced or freely started to migrate to other lands. Now let’s review a very condensed history of the world as it relates to the European countries work force and the American slavery system. The British Isles did not need slaves, its population provided very cheap labor where working conditions were in some cases worse than the American Slaves. In

many of the isolated mill villages of England and Scotland workers labored 12 hours a day living in Steve poor housing Fischer provided by COMMUNITY PRESS the mills, in many cases GUEST COLUMNIST the children started to work at 5 years of age or less, the Irish farmers lived in squalor and did not own the land they worked and there were over a million people working in service for the wealthy. “Downton Abbey” gave a view of what working in service was like though very rose colored glasses. These conditions lasted for many until the beginning of WWI. We have a hint that these same conditions existed in the rest of Europe because of the migration of millions of people to this country in the 1800s

and the fact that the French Revolution was basically a slave revolt. Now let’s review the Mr. Baker’s statement that the American Revolution was fought to extend slavery because England was gradually eliminating slavery. It is true that Lord Mansfield emancipated a slave in 1772 by stating that slavery was not part of English Common Law, however, the English Parliament passed the Slavery Trade Act of 1807 which outlawed the slave trade in the empire in 1807, the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 which abolished slavery in most of the British Colonies, but not all, was passed in 1833. The American Revolution which was mainly fought in the central and northern colonies ended in 1783, the government that was formed abolished slavery in the Northwest Territory in 1787 and by 1789 five of the revolting 13 colonies had abolished

slavery. Of course the American Civil War began in 1860 and the slaves were not emancipated until 1863 and it is true that the war was not fought over slavery but because of slavery, it was was fought to preserve the union. My point is not that slavery is a good institution, it is an evil institution, it hurts both those that it in slaves and those that it doesn’t. U.S. Grant in his memoirs stated that he did not understand why non-slave holding southerns fought for the Confederacy, he noticed in many area of the south poor whites were

treated by the plantation owners worse than their slaves, the slaves provided something to their owners whether working the fields, blacksmithing or in their households. The poor white, because blacks did the work thought that it was beneath them to do the jobs of blacks, consequently they did not do or have anything. Maybe that’s why for many southern whites it was not a hatred of blacks but a resentment of blacks. Steve Fischer is a resident of Mount Lookout.

Columbia Township officials avoid transparency Since last year I have had the opportunity to really see how my government doesn’t work, and I don’t like it, so I am trying to change how it functions now, not later. The Republicrates don’t seem to care what is happening in the township (more higher taxes). Read on. Columbia Township has been in a fiscal crisis for at least the last year, with lack of transparency we have not read anything about it. I have asked other government entities to review these issues, but with little or no response. The township has an administration building, one park, a firehouse (rented for

free) and 12 miles of road, but nothing else, no community center, no swimming pool, no baseball fields, no Carl tennis courts, or our own Jones COMMUNITY PRESS police and fire departments, GUEST COLUMNIST (contracted police with reduced coverage, three contracted fire departments). Columbia Township has one of the highest employees (six) salaries with 100 percent paid health care, in Hamilton County, with comparison to governments our size (Golf Manor,

Fairfax and Mariemont, which are much lower). Again in the top five of highest property taxes (millage) in Hamilton County, more than Newtown, Fairfax, Mariemont and Cincinnati. We have no bid contracts for services that should be bid out to save taxpayers money. The township is negotiating a police contract (without bid). The latest police contract has less services with reduced protection each day. Is this something we taxpayers are asking for, less police coverage, when the employees are now getting raises. There are other government entities that would like to bid on a split contract.

Ohio law allows the township to share services with other governments, therefore saving taxes. The only response from the township is higher taxes on the November ballot for a police levy. It is also looking to increase taxes with a fire district levy and a general fund tax increase. We just passed a large waste levy (65 percent increase) to pay for the higher salaries (not trash pickup). The waste contract is probably being renewed without bidding. Where’s the savings? All I want to know is if my taxes are being spent economically by the people we hire (and elect) for the job. I have

not yet found it (no transparency) just “rubber-stamping.” Is this government of the people? It sounds like someplace else. I have done nothing but ask for information I pay for with my overburdened taxes. I have asked elected officials and township employees to do their jobs, for the people, not self interest with political favors and higher taxes. Still no new website as promised for better transparency. I will continue to ask for our information and be involved to change the way business is done in my Columbia Township.

tries. Once again, as with Iran, no real negotiating took place. Just one immediate issue that should have been dealt with was improvements in the economy, living conditions and freedoms for the Cuban people a situation which will not improve one iota. Any financial gain will go straight into the pocket of the government and its cronies. And, no surprise at all, when Fidel Castro immediately sprang to life and ridiculed and disrespected America just as the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei did as soon as the so-called ‘deal’ was set with John Kerry and the White

House. “Sadly, I fear the president has abundant time to repeat this dangerous and demeaning strategy which is based on his own personal ideology, not on keeping America strong and secure. “I have to add that it was also again embarrassing and distressing for the country when he again acted inappropriately during the recent attack in Brussels, just as he has in the past in response to any of the atrocities perpetrated by the maniac Islamic terrorists.”

CH@TROOM March 23 question Are the renewal of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba, and the president’s visit to Cuba, good for the U.S.? Why or why not?

“I think the arrogant and accurate ‘put down’ of our apologist, by the brutal dictator of that pipsqueak, nonproductive island, answers that question best.”

D.B.

“Normalizing relations with Cuba is all good. Cuba and America working cooperatively together will be a good thing for their people with the eventual hope that the Communist principles at the forefront of the rift over 50 years ago will subside and eventually disappear completely, proving yet again that Communism and its close cousin Socialism do not work. One can only hope that Obama, The Bern and all of his blind followers will realize much sooner than later that capitalism, even with all of its faults, is still the best economic path for a country.”

“The president’s visit to Cuba is great on the international front. It demonstrates that our country is currently interested in building diplomacy bridges. We’re fortunate that the president is as well respected and well received on the international stage.

years. Cuba was doomed once Russia stopped their ‘foreign aid’ over 25 years ago. I think the more that Cubans see of the US life style the more they will realize the failure of their current systems. One of the reasons the iron curtain came down was Russians realizing what was on the other side in democratic countries. Cuba could have been New Orleans, Las Vegas and Miami Beach rolled into one vacation site. I give Obama credit for this new move, but let’s not forget the human rights violations of Castro over the last 55 years. Hopefully Castro’s son and some new young Cubans can turn this around.

Withrow returns relay vets tance races.” That group of athletes rounds out what the coach considers to be a strong nucleus. “We should do very well in all the running events,” he said. “We lack participation in the field events, but we’ll continue to work on that.”

Scott Springer and Nick Robbe Community Press staff

While the girls track and field team at Withrow High School has the recent accolades, the Tigers also feature several members of the boys team with after-burners. The Tigers won the CMAC title in 2014, before moving to the ECC last season and finishing fourth. Brock Rutledge’s squad did feature the Athlete of the Year in the field in state high jump competitor Albert Kalala (fifth at Division I meet). Kalala had a high of 6’8” in his first year of learning to high jump after transferring from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Aaron Shannon is also back as a first team performer in the 200 meters and 4x200 and 4x400 relay. Rashaun O’Neal, Jamario Scott and Elijah Miller also were first team selections between the 4x200 and 4x400 relay. O’Neal added second team honors in the long jump, 100 and 4x100, with Shannon and Miller also on the 4x100 squad. “The team is led by a strong senior class that is hungry to win and knows what it takes to reach their ultimate goal,” Rutledge said. “I’m interested to see who else will step up and make some contribution.” The Tigers will participate in the Texas Relays over their spring break before returning to the area for the Coaches Classic meet at Winton Woods April 6-8. “We have a well-rounded team of underclassmen and upperclassmen who can’t wait to get on the track and have some fun,” Rutledge said.

Walnut Hills

After several successful seasons with the girls program, Amanda Robinson takes over the Walnut Hills boys team this spring as well. Last season, the Eagles were sixth in the ECC, but return some promising athletes. Dyami Davis-Spence is an open 400-meter runner who should compete well in the ECC and the tournament. He will also be a key member of several relays. After being injured last season, Robinson also expects Michel Curry to have a break-out year in hurdles, sprints and relays. In the longer runs, Jack Lowry returns in the 1,600 meters and will run a key leg on the 4x800 relay. Others that could be factors for the Eagles are Michael Davenport, Jhariah Wadkins, Luke Dull, Brendan Li, John Jones and Malcolm Smitherman. “As head coach of the entire program I hope to bring the same philosophy I brought to the girls team; one team that can score in every event to win meets and championships,” Robinson said. “The boys team has been very receptive to the workouts and training. My style is very different, but I have not been questioned one time. They have 100 percent

Albert Kalala of Withrow won the high jump with a season-best jump of 6’8” at the Division I regional finals. He also cleared 6’8” in the regionals before finishing fifth at the Division I state meet last June.

buy-in. I hope to have a topthree finish in the ECC and take several athletes to state in June.” The boys team has very few underclassmen and has doubled in size. New football coach Brian Lainhart has helped bring athletes out and one of his assistants, Luke Wollet, is helping in sprints in relays. “I’m happy to have his support and hope the football players competing this season are able to take a competitive edge into the 2016 football season,” Robinson said. The Eagles are at the Coaches Classic meet at Winton Woods April 6-8 before heading to the Mason All-Comers meet April 12. Walnut Hills hosts the DeHart Hubbard Invitational at Marx Stadium April 29.

Purcell Marian

David Brown is the firstyear coach of the Cavaliers who lost state-meet-caliber long jumper Jair Knox to graduation. Jacob McGee is a returning starter and Jamel Howard and Trevon McNeil are also expected to contribute. “There is excitement building at Purcell Marian and the kids are really committed to competing against some of the best talent in the state,” Brown said. “The Greater Catholic League is tough from top to bottom and every team has great athletes.” The Cavaliers are at the Madeira Invitational April 6 and the Harrison Invitational April 15.

Clark Montessori

The Cougars were sixth in the Miami Valley Conference last season. Top returners are Jason Jarrold-Grapes, Raymond Kellam and Drake Kammerer. Senior Jarrold-Grapes returns after finishing second in the MVC in the 1,600 and 10th in the 3,200. Kellam was fifth in the 300 hurdles and Kammerer was fourth in the 800 meters. From the cross country team, Ryan Estes had the second best time in the league and was voted first team MVC. “Raymond Kellam, Drake Kammerer and Jason Jarrold-

Grapes all had great bids for state last year and barely missed the mark,” Clark coach Nia Baucke said. “I’m expecting great things from them this year as they’ll return more experienced and ready to compete.” Up ahead, the Cougars host the Clark Invitational on April 19 at Withrow High School.

Summit Country Day

Mason Moore is off continuing his running career at Loyola University in Chicago. He leaves behind a decorated career at Summit Country Day. Losing a standout like Moore is tough, however, it is Summit. The Silver Knights and coach Kim Horning typically have a strong program and this year shouldn’t be an exception. Tullus Dean and Beau Poston, both juniors now, experienced the state meet’s atmosphere as part of the 4x800 meter relay. They should be among the team’s best. During the cross country season, Dean finished 60th in the Division III state championship race and led the Silver Knights to a district title.

Mariemont

Coach Jeff Timmers will have his usual cast of characters back on his Mariemont squad, with one exception. Senior captain Charlie Jordan returns for his final gorounds on the high school circuit. He was a state qualifier last year in the 800 meter run. Jeffrey Timmers, another senior captain, was the Cincinnati Hills League champ in the 300 meter hurdles and as a member of the 4x100 relay. Junior sprinter Ryan Fields was also a member of that victorious relay. He also won conference titles in the 100 and 200 meter dashes. Senior Connor Jacob will make his Mariemont track debut this season as soccer commitments kept him away the first three years. “This is his first year out for the team, but he will make an impact because of his ability,” Jeff Timmers said. “He will run sprints and middle-dis-

Seven Hills is led by a couple of strong runners in Chase Gardner and Matthew Marquardt. During the cross country season, Gardner finished 26th at the state meet with a time of 16:31.1 and was fifth at the region meet. He also won the district meet. Marquardt, who does a number of things well including qualifying for the 2016 Summer Olympic trials in swimming, also competed in the state cross country meet last fall. Tana Luckie coaches the Stingers.

Moeller

The Crusaders will look to improve their standing in a Greater Catholic League-South led by La Salle last season. Coach Jason Crockett’s squad will be led by seniors Bryce Stricker, Rick Raga and Isaac Andrews and junior Rexton Morris. Stricker was fourth in the GCL-South in shot put at 45’ 1.25” and seventh in discus at 105’ 7”. Rexton Morris was third in the pole vault at 11 feet. “I fell that our field events are going to be a lot stronger than last year,” Crockett said. Moeller will be in the Coaches Classic meet at Winton Woods April 6-8. The Crusaders are at Mount Healthy April 14 and in the Anderson Invitational April 21-22.

St. Xavier

There’s a youth movement in progress this season for St. Xavier’s track and field team. After graduating Michael Vitucci, a state champion runner in track and cross country, Brad Eagan, who took third at state last season in the mile, and Connor Stelljes, a state qualifying thrower, the Bombers will rely on a lot of new faces this spring. Coach Oliver Mason, now in his 11th season, said his team has no returning regional qualifiers. “We come back with a really young team,” he said. “Our team is basically sophomores and juniors and unproven at that.” Mason said the Bombers “will creep up on people at the end of the year,” and they should have a lot of production from their distance runners. “We’ll have a pretty good miler in junior Jack Cordonnier, and good two-milers in senior Austin Angeline and junior Chris Reischel,” said Mason. “So those three should be good distance as always.” In the throwing department, Mason said junior Jonah Yates has been impressive and newcomer, sophomore Bobby Jefferson has shown promise.

State champion Withrow girls re-rack on track Scott Springer and Nick Robbe Community Press staff

A jog around the track at Withrow High School maybe should be slow in order to properly appreciate the historic architecture of the building. On the other hand, those that grace the track during the spring at Withrow rarely do anything slow. The proof is in the Division I state championship trophy the Lady Tigers brought home from Columbus last June. Now, after six years as an assistant, Timothy Crooks takes over head whistle duties for the Withrow girls who return six key runners. Back to blaze in orange are Doneasha Brewer, Destiny Pennington, Niyah Carpenter, J’Alyiea Smith, Mercedes Smith and Simone Mason. Brewer was Eastern Conference Cincinnati first team in the 100 meters, 200, 4x100 and4x200 relays and second in long jump; Pennington was first team in the 4x100 and 4x200 and second in the 100 and 200; Carpenter was first team in the 4x100, 4x200, 4x400 and long jump; J’Alyiea Smith was first team in the 4x400; Mercedes Smith first in the 4x200 and 4x400 and Mason was honorable mention in the 800 meter run. Withrow won nine straight Cincinnati Metro Athletic Conference titles before earning their first ECC crown last season. “From a relay stand-

point, we are positioned to be both strong and experienced as we have the entire (state) second-place 4x200 relay team returning and three members returning in the firstplace 4x100 and second4x400 teams,” place Crooks said. “In individual events, we’re poised to be strong as well with athletes such as Doneasha Brewer, Niyah Carpenter and J’Alyiea Smith setting the tone.” Brewer was state runner-up in the 200 meters and a 100-meter qualifier. Carpenter and J’Alyiea Smith were state competitors in the long jump and high jump, respectively. J’Alyiea Smith is also closing in on the school 300 hurdles record. “The Madison Road Speed Factory” started off with the Tiger Invitational before heading off to the Texas Relays over spring break. The Withrow girls return to local action in the Coaches Classic meet at Winton Woods April 6-8. “As always, we’re aiming to continue to grow and develop as a team and make our way back to the state championship meet in June,” Crooks said.

Walnut Hills

Hot on the heels of the state champion Withrow girls is Walnut Hills – winners of the first two ECC championships and second last year. Former University of Cincinnati track athlete Amanda Robinson continues as coach and again has some talented Lady Eagles

ready to fly. Among those are Tai’Lynn Jones, the district and regional champion in the long jump who broke the school record last year at 18’ 5”. Jones was also part of the 4x100 relay that made ECC second team. Kahla Cornett will contribute in hurdles, sprints and relays and was part of the Walnut 4x100 and 4x400 groups that were ECC second team. Key cogs missing from those relays are the recently graduated Taylor Darks (Furman) and Arissa Freeman (Miami University). “We have big shoes to fill,” Robinson said. “Our incoming class of freshmen is quite small, but they are hard workers. They’re adjusting to the high-school level workouts.” Robinson has procured the services of some athletes from other sports that could add points in El-

li McHaffie, Sofi Guven and Ajia Gannaway. Robinson Assisting this season are Liz Stanton and Paul Malott in distance runs, Luke Wollet in sprints, Amanda Hotaling in pole vault, John Hassel in throws and S’Dori Sims in sprints, relays and jumps. “Our coaching staff is a phenomenal group of individuals that bring great experience – former college athletes, head coaching experience and a love of track and field,” Robinson said. Walnut Hills participates in the Coaches Classic April 6-8 at Winton Woods. On April 12, they’re at the Mason AllComers meet. The DeHart Hubbard Invitational at Marx Stadium is April 29.

Purcell Marian

A big loss for the Purcell Marian girls team is the graduation of distance runner Kansas Greenwell, a consistent allleague performer. The most experienced female runner left for new coach David Brown is senior TeAsia Gamble. Gamble finished third last season in the Division III district meet in the 400 meters at 1:01.79. LarJae Cohen is also expected to be a factor. The Lady Cavaliers are in the Madeira Invitational April 6 and the Harrison Invitational April 15.

The girls at Clark Montessori took sixth in the Miami Valley Conference last season but return some swift runners that could improve that standing. Renesha Griffin returns and Re’Aija Grice is expected to make some things happen. Griffin was seventh in the MVC in the 200 meters. “Not only do we have the majority of our runners who competed very well in the district and regional tournaments and broke school records, returning, but we also have a great group of competitive newcomers,” Clark coach Nia Baucke said. “Two freshman sprinters, Re’Aija Grice and Macai Murry, newcomer Sarah Edwards and Renesha Griffin are shaping up to have a fantastic 4x200 relay.” The highlight of the month comes April 19 with the Clark Invitational at Withrow High School.

Mariemont

Coach Emily Tyminski and her Mariemont Warriors squad are looking to do something the program has never done: win a second consecutive Cincinnati Hills League title. With who the Warriors

have returning and who they have added from the middle-school ranks, it isn’t hard to say Mariemont has a shot at accomplishing its goal. “We have some very competitive upperclassmen, a very talented freshmen class and new additions to the team,” Tyminski said. Senior captain Aislynn Hartman was a regional qualifier in the 4x100 meter relay. In addition, she was the team’s top placer in the 100 and 300 hurdles and high jump. The team’s junior captains, Corinne Fanta and Carson Fields, enjoyed good seasons last year. Fanta was the CHL champion in the 1600 meter run and was a regional qualifier in the event. She was also a member of the 4x800 meter relay team that qualified for regionals. Fields put together a very strong season. She placed seventh in the 300 hurdles at state and was a regional qualifier in the 100 and 200-meter dashes and 4x100 relay. In the CHL meet, Fields won the 100 and 200-meter dashes, finished second in the 300meter hurdles and finished third in the 100-meter hurdles. She was one of two CHL athletes of the year. Tyminski is also excited about the arrival of two newcomers in Marin Valentine and Hanna Tenhundfeld. “Marin will make a huge impact on this team,” the coach said. “Hanna, in her first season for the team, will make an impact as well.”

St. Ursula

The Bulldogs lost a lot of very productive seniors including, but not limited to, Alexandra Goss, Danielle Springer, Maria Weisgerber, Abby Weber, Caitlin Kelly and Annie Heffernan Heffernan. left behind a decorated legacy for the golden dome of Notre Dame. Dan Bird Coach doesn’t have an overly experienced roster with just nine seniors on it. To be successful, the Bulldogs are going to need a bunch of girls to continue their progress. Fortunately, Bird still has a good amount to work with. “We have a large, young team, the majority are sophomores and freshmen,” Bird said. “They should improve as the season progresses.” Runners Maggie Breitenstein, Katie Miller, Ellie Rueve, Eva Tombragel, Anna Orzali, Gracie Walter and Grace Widmeyer all received recognition from the Girls Greater Catholic League during the cross country season. Most of them will be competing for the Bulldogs this spring. The coach also tabbed Therese Kondash, Jailah Long and Sophie Austin as athletes to watch for SUA.

Seven Hills

Seven Hills opens the season with a meet at Madeira April 5-6. Then, the Stingers go on the road to Indian Hill about a week later and Reading on April 16. Tana Luckie coaches the Stingers. No further information was available by deadline.

Summit Country Day As a freshman, Summit Country Day’s Sydni Brooks placed fourth in the region and 12th at state in the 400 meters. She also placed 11th in the region in the 200 meters and was a member of the 4x400 relay team that finished 10th in the region. Should she return, she will be among Summit’s best this year. Kim Horning coaches Summit. No further information was available by deadline.

Mount Notre Dame

The Cougars will look to improve in a Girls Greater Catholic League dominated by Seton, St. Ursula and McAuley at the top. Their top pointearner returns in Sydney Jefferson, who was the GGCL champion in the shot put as a freshman. Also back is senior Chase Bauer from the MND honorable mention 4x100 relay. Along with the regional qualifier Jefferson in throws is senior Rachel Daum in the discus. Joining Bauer on the track is senior distance specialist Allison Rogiers and junior mid-distance (400) runner Olivia DiCarlo. “We have 45 athletes, but 23 of them are freshmen,” MND coach Jeff Johnson said. “The coaches are very excited about the long-term future of the team. While we only have seven seniors and five juniors, they are all committed, extremely very talented and great role models.” Mount Notre Dame will participate in the Coaches Classic at Winton Woods April 6-8 before moving on to the Harrison Wildcat Invitational April 15. “It may take us the better part of the season to find the best events for our newcomers, but our increased numbers give us an opportunity to add depth in every event and create a competitive practice environment.”

Cincinnati Country Day

Unlike its boys team, Cincinnati Country Day’s girls team isn’t senior-laden. However, the leadership the Indians do have has been crucial. CCD lost two of its major contributors, but still returns a handful of upperclassmen. “The leadership we get from the upperclassmen and the underclassmen’s willingness to learn make this a fun team to coach,” Steve Conner said. Junior Grace Pettengill is back to run middle distance races. She was the district champion in the 800 last season. Pettengill is also fewer than four seconds off the school record in the event. sprinter Sophomore Ayanna Kemp was a regional qualifier in the 100 and 4x100 meter relay. Senior Haven Watson was on that relay, as well. She also qualified for regionals in long jump. Tenth-grader Clarissa Conner runs sprints, completes in hurdles and is the team’s top pole vaulter. She was a regional qualifier in the event last season. Kaitlin Sophomore Hardesty will run distance races.

When thinking of taking a cruise it’s always important to expect the unexpected and protect yourself if something goes wrong. That’s what a Cincinnati area family learned after their flight to the cruise ship was delayed. Lori writes, Howard “The pilot Ain informed us there HEY HOWARD! would be a slight delay arriving in Atlanta due to weather conditions. However, after we had arrived in the Atlanta area, the pilot then informed us we would need to be rerouted to Knoxville airport for fuel as we did not have enough to accommodate the delay in Atlanta.� She says by the time they arrived in Atlanta it was too late to get on another flight to get to the ship in time. She writes, “We were left with no other options but to return to Indianapolis due to the delays caused not only by weather, but also due to inadequate fueling in Indianapolis.� Lori wanted the airline to refund their air-

line tickets and pay for the lost cruise. While the airline refunded the cost of the plane tickets as a goodwill gesture, a representative said it could not pay for the canceled cruise because it “doesn’t compensate passengers for prepaid expenses.� To avoid such problems I always recommend getting to the cruise ship at least one day ahead of time. That way, if there’s a delay like this, you are only late getting to your hotel and can still get to the cruise ship the next day. This early arrival is particularly important if you have to travel overseas to get to your cruise ship. In addition, it’s always been my policy to buy trip insurance when going on a cruise. Not only will that compensate you if you miss the ship, but it will also pay your medical bills should you get sick while outside the country and have to be hospitalized. Some policies will also play for you to be airlifted or medically evacuated if you need to be transferred to a major medical center. Howard Ain appears as the Troubleshooter on WKRC-TV Local 12 News.

Can you do the Cancan? Join party at The Barn More than an oil-painted masterpiece, the painting “At the Moulin Rouge,” will take center stage at the 2016 fundraiser for the Woman’s Art Cultural Center (The Barn). If partiers look closely through the crowd – not unlike a scene at an authentic cabaret – they will catch a glimpse of Richard Brettell. Brettell is a faculty member at the University of Dallas, who specializes in modernism and 19th and 20th Century impressionism. The professor, who also holds the Margaret McDermott Distinguished Chair of Art and Aesthetic Studies, as well as the Edith O’Donnell Chair, has held numerous academic appointments including positions at the University of Chicago, Yale University and Harvard. Brettell has provided lectures throughout Europe, including Paris, the home of At the Moulin Rouge, from which he had just returned. Given the professor’s affection for Paris, it seemed rather odd when he said, “I look forward to Cincinnati every April.” Indeed, the professor has a certain propensity for the Tristate. Thanks to the generosity of Art-

sWave and Drs. Steve Ann and Bjornson, he has attended WACC’s Brettell fundraisers for six years and typically bids on numerous items during the auction. In addition, he will provide a full-length lecture on the following day at the Taft Museum of Art. “Cincinnati is one of my favorite cities,” he said. Just weeks ago, Brettell stood at the actual doorstep of the Moulin Rouge in Paris, a cabaret known for Europe’s first rabble-rousing routines of ladies doing the Cancan – a dance made popular in the 1840s, thus defining the Moulin Rouge in its heyday as a place of seduction self-indulgence. and Translated to English, roulin mouge means red mill. A fire destroyed the original structure in 1915, but didn’t affect the spirit of an open dance theatre and the rapscallions who delighted in it. Not unlike the building itself, the painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (18641901) associated with prostitutes and the “low

world,” according to Brettell. Lautrec was the aristo“quintessential crat,” he said. But as he began to study this misunderstood class of people, the more he recognized its humanity. At the Moulin Rouge implies a sense of the representation of individuals, rather than of types, said Brettell, an authority on French paintings from 1830-1930. This year’s WACC features fundraiser French cuisine, the live music of French Axe, a raffle, a sale of art created by jury-selected WACC members, including miniature renditions of Lautrec’s work, as well as a few brief comments from Brettell. He will provide a full –length lecture on the subject on following day at the Taft Museum of Art. And Madam Gigi’s Outrageous Cancan Girls, a company from Dayton, will entertain with a dance they compare to champagne – sexy and bubbly. Party at the Moulin Rouge takes place at 6:30 p.m. Friday, April 22, at 6980 Cambridge Ave. in Mariemont. Tickets cost $75 per person. Call 513272-3700 or visitwww.artatthebarn.org for required reservations.

Local youth voice experiences in UC hip-hop poetry slam April 9 In a city with the nasecond-highest tion’s childhood poverty rate, a community effort led by the University of Cincinnati (UC) encourages 1319-year olds to verbally express their fears, worries, struggles and hopes. The program spearheaded by UC’s Taft Research Center culminates in the Saturday, April 9, Louder than a Bomb (LTAB) poetry finals at the School for the Creative and Performing Arts in Over the Rhine. Teams from Indian Hill and Moeller high schools have been part of the LTAB program this school year. The April 9 event is a variation of the world’s largest youth poetry slam, LTAB (named after a Public Enemy song about speaking truth), which originated in Chicago 15 years ago as a venue for youth to share their stories. Students perform original poetry, story telling and hip-hop spoken word. Taft director Adrian Parr brought the program to Cincinnati last year “to engage the city, particularly young people, and spark interest in reading and writing with expression in poetic form. Horrified by our poverty rate, which is directly related to educational outcomes and retention, we wanted to deal with this in a pragmatic way and put the humanities to work as a solution.” UC’s McMicken Col-

PROVIDED

Mars, the Shinobi spoken-word poet who represented Elementz at last year’s slam.

lege of Arts and Sciences Dean Ken Petren agreed, and the college has signed on as an important project sponsor. Parr’s goals were to empower youth who feel unheard, develop their surround confidence, them with supportive community and bring the city together. Additionally, the Queen City’s version of LTAB provides budding poets “with an exposure to literature without the seriousness of sitting in class. They get it on their own terms.” She bused them to campus for a “Sociology of Hip-Hop” class that “helps them imagine themselves in a university context. We want to create a different pipeline moving kids to higher education. The humanities and arts are very flexible and open for kids regardless of their interests. Everyone has a creative side that we want to tap in a shared platform.” LTAB coaches Jori An Cotton and Desirae Hos-

ley, both spoken-word artists, are friends and collaborators who push and mentor each other. “We share similar missions of creating writing circles and open-mic forums in the city,” said Cotton, who coaches multiple teams and is funded by Elementz. “You can feel defeated and, as friends, we get ourselves going by sharing our poetry, giving feedback, pointers and critiques. That translates to the students we coach. We can push them because we know where we started. We can see the different ways poetry can be fused in their lives.” “The first thing I preach is self love,” Hosley said. “I always say writing is therapy: write a poem, save a life. If you can bring voice to whatever damages you, you can grow.” “As children, we were seen and not heard,” Cotton said. “After listening at the semi finals to youth across Cincinnati, I understand they need to be heard. This is their world now. Our voice is truly all we have and when we can hear someone’s story, barriers are broken down.” Doors open at 5 p.m. Saturday, April 9; finals begin at 6 p.m. Former Cincinnati Bengal and Dhani philanthropist Jones and poet-activist Malcolm London, a Chicago LTAB winner, will host.
