Cancer surviver now drives cancer patients to treatment Anne Saker

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Stan Moczydlowski put his Subaru into gear one recent Friday afternoon and pulled out of his Anderson Township subdivision. He was on a mission.

A cancer patient needed him.

Transportation even to routine medical checkups is a complication for many people in the Cincinnati area who don’t have a car, are too sick to drive themselves, don't have the money for a ride or have no one to drive them. For cancer patients, it’s a factor in survival.

The American Cancer Society runs a volunteer army in the region of about 165 drivers like Moczydlowski, on call to drive patients to treatment or appointments.

He has been driving since 2013, his car serving as a bridge between the world of cancer and the world of everything else.

When he contemplates what his driving means to him, he claps a hand over his heart.

His lips tighten.

“It just feels good,” he said.

At the start of the week, Moczydlowski as usual checked the society’s website where patients ask for drivers. A man in Hyde Park needed a lift to Good Samaritan Hospital. Moczydlowski – pronounced moe-zid-LAUW-ski – signed up to drive.

Sky Galley restaurant to stay open with new lease agreement Erin Glynn Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It looks like the Sky Galley restaurant inside Cincinnati's Lunken airport terminal will remain open.

Restaurant owner Kirby Brakvill said Monday, Jan. 6 that he and Cincinnati city offi cials have agreed to a fi ve-year lease that includes splitting the cost of renovations to the restaurant's space.

After Cincinnati offi cials decided to cancel their lease with Brakvill Dec. 12 due to potential food safety risks with the restaurant's space, restaurant patrons created an online petition to save Sky Galley that gathered over 11,000 signatures.

Shortly afterward, city administration reopened their lease negotiations with Brakvill.

Brakvill said the planned renovations will not aesthetically change the building because "the community really

wants it to stay the same." Instead, the renovations will focus on structural improvements to the facility's fl oor, ceiling and walls.

"This building was built in 1925, so it’ll take some structural changes to bring it up to standards," Bravill said.

The City of Cincinnati has agreed to contribute up to $100,000 for the cost of the renovations, according to the lease agreement.

The city released a statement about the agreement Monday, Jan. 6.

“Brakvill, Inc. and the City Administration are pleased that through the terms of this new agreement the restaurant will be able to continue to serve residents and visitors to the City’s municipal airport.”

The lease agreement will be submitted to the Planning Commission and City Council for formal approval this month, according to the city's statement.

Former Kroger Senior Classic chairman dead at 87 Randy Tucker

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Burch Riber, who ran men's and women's professional golf tournaments in the Cincinnati area for more than a quarter century, died Sunday, Jan. 5 of natural causes, his wife, Charlotte, told The Enquirer. He was 87.

Riber, who founded Riber Sports Marketing Group in Anderson Township in 1983, was previously an executive Taft Broadcasting Co. Taft opened Kings Island amusement park and the Golf Center at Kings Island in Mason, and Burch was instrumental in bringing the PGA Tour's Ohio Kings Island Open to the golf center in 1973.

He was tournament director there until 1977 before assuming the same responsibilities for the LPGA Championship when it began play there in 1978.

He later became chairman of the Kroger Senior Classic on the Senior PGA Tour, which replaced the LPGA Championship at Kings Island from 1990 through 2004. Riber was chairman until 1998.

"He ran every professional golf tournament in Cincinnati for 30 years,'' said his son, Sam Riber. "That's really his legacy in Cincinnati, and from that he built his sports marketing company.''

Burch Riber's infl uence extended far beyond The Queen City.

In 1985, he became executive director of The World Cup of Golf – an internaCOMMUNITY PRESS & RECORDER NEWSPAPERS ❚ 312 Elm Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202 ❚ 2116 Chamber Center Drive, Fort Mitchell, KY 41017 NEWS TIPS ........................................513-248-8600 HOME DELIVERY .............................513-576-8240 ADVERTISING...................................513-768-8404 CLASSIFIEDS ....................................513-242-4000

"The whole purpose of the World Cup was promoting international goodwill through golf,'' said Sam Riber, who took over as president of the marketing fi rm from his dad. "He was really proud of how he was able to use the game of golf to bring people together and support their communities.''

Burch Riber, who was born in Hillsboro, Ohio, loved golf and was a good player, but that was just part of his story, said Charles Mechem, a close friend and former colleague who served as chair-

man and CEO of Taft Broadcasting and its successor, Great American Broadcasting Co., from 1967 until 1989.

"Burch was the face of golf for Taft Broadcasting Co. for a number of years, but he was much more than that,'' said Mechem, LPGA commissioner from 1991 to 1995. "He was a master marketer and salesman. He was selling corporate

sis of prostate cancer. He and his wife Flo, a nurse and teacher at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, went to support groups where they learned about treatments and how to handle a hospital visit.

The support groups emphasized exercise, so Moczydlowski got on his bike and rode around Anderson Township.

He came through treatment and has been in remission since. He kept riding his bike, and he rides on Tuesdays and Thursdays. He's completed at least four Pelotonia rides in Columbus to benefi t the James Cancer Center at Ohio State University.

But he wanted “to pay it forward somehow” in another way. When he retired from accounting work with Fidelity Investments in 2013, he signed up to be a cancer-society driver Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Ninety-nine percent of his passengers are nice, he said. One lady told Moczydlowski on her ride that she had no sense of taste anymore. She said all she wanted was a big, fat, juicy hamburger, “and I told her, 'well, there you go, that’s your long-term goal.' ” Months later, on Christmas night, the phone rang at the Moczydlowski house.

Puzzled, he took the call. It was the lady he'd driven months before, with news that she fi nally got to eat that burger.

Sometimes, if his passenger's treatment is brief, Moczydlowski will sit in the waiting room with a book until the patient is fi nished, then Moczydlowski takes them home. If the treatment is longer, the Vietnam War veteran goes to the Cincinnati VA Medical Center and volunteers as a hospital escort.

Flo Moczydlowski said she’s amazed at the driving short cuts her husband has acquired from his time with patients.

“There are two things I can do,” Stan Moczydlowski said. “I can plug the address where we are going into GPS, or I say, 'Do you have a route you like to go?'

Usually, these are people who have lived here a long time, and they’ll tell me, 'Go here, turn here.' ” “I don’t think you’ve missed anybody, have you?” his wife asked.

“No,” he said.

The issue of transportation is critical for other organizations that assist people through cancer treatment. The nonprofi t Cancer Justice Network has funding through OKI Regional Planning, the Congregation of St. Joseph, and Christ Church Cathedral to pay the Cincinnati Area Senior Services to arrange van pickup and delivery Mondays, Wednes-

sponsorships before we fi rst opened Kings Island, and that was no small task because we were just selling smoke then. We didn't have anything to show.''

Mechem's fondest memories of Burch? "He always made you laugh. He was a one-of-a-kind guy. He could have been a stand-up comedian if he chose to.''

Stan Moczydlowski has been a volunteer driver since 2013, when he retired. MEG VOGEL/THE ENQUIRER

days and Thursdays.

Network founder Steve Sunderland wrote about transportation in a recent newsletter, "We are a driving culture: Cars-only is the way to health if you want speedy access.”

His new rider On the recent Friday afternoon, Moczydlowski steered to the Beechwood Home, a Hyde Park facility that cares for patients with neurological issues.

Moczydlowski had arrived at the wrong door, but eventually, a caregiver presented Bradley Weber, 64. Moczydlowski made sure Weber was comfortable in the front passenger seat, then he climbed again behind the steering wheel.

“You always live in this area?” Moczydlowski asked.

“I’ve always lived in Northern Kentucky,” Weber replied. He was diagnosed about a year and a half ago with colon cancer and was looking at an afternoon of radiation and chemotherapy.

He stopped driving several years ago.

“Well at least we have a nice day today,” Moczydlowski said.

“Yeah, not bad at all.”

Moczydlowski aimed the car west on Martin Luther King Jr., north on Clifton, left on Dixmyth Avenue. In front of Good Samaritan Hospital, he parked the Subaru near the front door and threw a sign onto his dashboard: “Volunteer Driver Waiting for Patient.”

Moczydlowski walked Weber into the hospital, where Weber’s brother and sister-in-law were waiting for him.

Moczydlowski off ered his hand, which Weber shook. “Good luck to you,” Moczydlowski said.

Moczydlowski drove back to his Anderson Township home, his driving done for the week. He had a bike ride planned for the weekend.

YOUR HEALTH with Dr. Owens

CEO sentenced for scheme to win contracts as minority-owned fi rm Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

We must talk about e-cigarettes with youth.Here’s how.

Youth e-cigarette use is increasing at an alarming rate, with more than 5 million middle and high school students reporting that they currently use e-cigarettes, according to the 2019 National Youth Tobacco Survey.

O’dell M. Owens, MD, MPH President & CEO

This fall, the Wall Street Journal asked experts to provide tips to help parents talk to youth about e-cigarettes.The article,“Getting Through to Your Teen About the Dangers of Vaping,” includes this advice: 1. Don’t be direct. Rather than bluntly asking a young person if he or she is using e-cigarettes, try bringing up recent news to start a conversation. Be sincere and avoid judgement, even if the young person shares that he or she has tried e-cigarettes.

2. Avoid scare tactics. Learn about the risks of e-cigarettes and calmly share accurate information. Resources can be found at https://www.interactforhealth.org/vaping/.

3. Be persistent. There may be many conversations about e-cigarettes. Keep communication open and ongoing.

4. Stay calm. If you find out a young person is using e-cigarettes, avoid criticism. Ask questions to better understand why he or she is smoking.

5. Know when to get help. If your child, or a child you care about, cannot stop using e-cigar e-cigarettes, talk to his or her health care provider about treatment options.

As adults, we have an obligation to protect young people from harm.Teens who vape can bring about lifelong health problems and put themselves at risk for fatal lung injuries. Do your part to protect the youth you care about—st about—start a conversation about e-cigarettes.

The CEO of a Newtown company who prosecutors said directed a scheme to win demolition contracts intended for minority-owned businesses was sentenced Tuesday, Jan. 7 to 21 months in prison.

At a sentencing in federal court in Cincinnati, U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett also ordered Doug Evans to pay a $25,000 fi ne.

The scheme orchestrated by Evans and his company, Evans Landscaping, was “born out of sheer greed” and “required persistent deception and concealment to numerous third parties and government entities,” prosecutors said in court documents. It lasted several years.

Evans helped create a front company – called Ergon Site Construction LLC – so he could fraudulently obtain $2 million in demolition jobs from the City of Cincinnati and another $11 million in contracts from the state.

Evans, 57, who is white, and another executive at Evans Landscaping, Jim Bailey, were convicted in December 2018 of federal conspiracy and wire fraud charges. Bailey was scheduled to be sentenced Friday.

The company was ordered to pay a $250,000 fi ne.

In addition to demolition, the company performs landscaping, grading, hauling and recycling services.

Documents say that beginning in 2008, when Evans Landscaping was losing millions of dollars because of the economic downturn, Doug Evans directed the creation of Ergon.

An African-American computer consultant for Evans Landscaping, Korey Jordan, was given "nominal" ownership, prosecutors said. In its early years,

Doug Evans, walks out of a federal courthouse after a judge sentenced him to 21 months in prison. FOX19

Ergon had no equipment and only one employee on its payroll.

According to prosecutors, employees received direction from Bailey and another Evans Landscaping executive. Evans Landscaping controlled the hiring, benefi ts and pay of Ergon employees, including Jordan.

Prosecutors said Evans himself "set the pay and approved vacation for Ergon employees."

From early December 2011 to early 2013, Ergon had no drivers on its payroll for its trucks and only two employees, the documents say.

Prosecutors noted in court documents that the letters in "Ergon" can be rearranged to form the word, "Negro," and witnesses heard people refer to the company by that term.

"Doug Evans thought the use of that term for Egron was hilarious," prosecutors said.

Jordan and three other Evans Landscaping employees pleaded guilty to various federal charges in 2017.

Court documents say Evans Landscaping obtained the nearly $11 million in state contracts – under a program called Encouraging Diversity, Growth and Equity – by claiming some of the work would be performed by Ergon.

‘Sentencing the American dream:’ Inside the sentencing of Doug Evans Kevin Grasha

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A video played during Doug Evans’ sentencing Tuesday, Jan. 7 lasted an hour and 15 minutes.

It featured Evans’ friends, employees of his Newtown-based company, a priest, a group of African-American teens who benefi ted from money he donated, a police chief, a township admin-

istrator – even Evans’ exwife – speaking in support of him.

Mariemont Chief of Police Rick Hines said he was willing to put his reputation on the line for Evans, who was convicted in December 2018 of federal conspiracy and wire fraud charges.

“His heart is as big as this building,” Hines said in the video, echoing a sentiment expressed by many.

Hines called the 57year-old owner of Evans Landscaping honest, caring, hard-working, and “a pillar in this community.”

The company has approximately 300 employees.

Sending Evans to prison for any amount of time, he said, would negatively impact “so many people.”

Evans appeared to wipe tears from his face as his ex-wife talked about how a prison sentence would be “devastating” to their three children. In the video, she stopped speaking as she appeared to be become overwhelmed with emotion.

It was a powerful presentation, but it didn’t dissuade U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett from imposing a 21-month prison sentence. Barrett also ordered Evans to pay a $25,000 fi ne and another $25,000 to a community service organization that must be approved by the court. Evans was convicted in December 2018 in a years-long scheme to win demolition contracts with the City of Cincinnati and the state by creating a fake company that appeared to be owned by an African-American See SENTENCE, Page 6A

claiming Ergon was involved.

Evans’ scheme, Mangan said, took resources that were intended for small businesses.

The case, Mangan said, “was about him stepping on the little guy.”

Evans created the company, Ergon Site Construction LLC, “out of whole cloth,” Barrett said, and maintained complete control over it “for his own benefi t.”

Barrett’s courtroom was packed Tuesday, Jan. 7 for the sentencing, which took more than three hours. That was partly because of the lengthy video, but also because of a delay caused by technical issues playing the video on a massive screen that came down from the ceiling.

Among those in attendance were more than two dozen Evans Landscaping employees, many wearing company uniforms. The jury box was fi lled with spectators, including Evans’ family members.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Tim Mangan described the scheme as a sophisticated operation that negatively impacted legitimate small businesses and minority-owned businesses.

Mangan said it involved creating a front company, false invoices, fake management agreements – even cropping photographs sent to the city, so Ergon would appear to be a minority-run business.

The people who spoke in the video, Mangan told Barrett, didn’t know about the crimes.

Referring to how people described Evans donating money and holiday food over the years, Mangan said: “Being charitable does not make you above the law.”

From 2011 through 2014, according to trial testimony, Ergon bid on and received nearly $2 million in demolition contracts with the City of Cincinnati by leveraging Ergon’s fraudulent status.

Evans also won $11 million in state demolition and construction projects by

After Barrett imposed the prison term, Evans’ attorney, Ben Dusing, asked for a delay so he could fi le an appeal. Barrett gave Evans 90 days until he has to report to prison.

Dusing said creating Ergon wasn’t Evans’ idea, and he wasn’t involved in the day-to-day operation of the scheme.

Just because he was at the top of the corporate pyramid, Dusing said, that didn’t mean he headed the conspiracy.

Four former Evans Landscaping employees, including Korey Jordan, the African-American computer consultant who was named as Ergon’s president and owner, have pleaded guilty in the case. Jordan had no experience in the work Ergon was supposed to perform, prosecutors said.

Dusing asked Barrett not to send Evans to prison, arguing that a man who had “done so much for so many for so long…should get credit for all he’s done.”

It was a question of “judicial courage,” Dusing said.

Evans started his landscaping business when he was a junior at Turpin High School, using a pickup he bought for $500. He soon employed two teachers, according to his brother.

Evans Landscaping grew into one of the largest such companies in Greater Cincinnati, The Enquirer has previously reported. In 2015, Evans owned 17 fi rms and at least 70 percent of two other companies.

Dusing called Evans a role model and “a once-in-a-generation kind of man.”

“We are sentencing the American dream,” he said.

VP of Evans Landscaping sentenced Jim Bailey to serve 3 years probation in connection to demolition contract scheme Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Vice President of Evans Landscaping was sentenced to three years probation Friday in connection to the scheme to win demolition contracts intended for minority-owned businesses.

Jim Bailey spoke a total of four words during the sentencing, when asked by U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett if he stood by his letter to the court: "Yes, sir, your honor."

For the rest of the approximately 30-minute sentencing he remained silent, standing in a navy suit with his hands clasped behind his back, between his attorneys Eric Eckes and Martin Pinales.

"He's not a great public speaker," Eckes told the judge. "He's very nervous, judge."

On Tuesday, Jan. 7 the company's CEO, Doug Evans, was sentenced to 21 months in prison and ordered to pay a $25,000 fi ne.

Bailey and Evans were convicted in December 2018 of federal conspiracy and wire fraud charges.

Bailey will be required to pay a fi ne of $5,000 to the court and $15,000 to a community service organization that must be approved by the court, Barrett said.

He will also need to perform 200 hours of community service.

The line to get into the courtroom ran out into the hallway of the federal courthouse at least 30 minutes before the sentencing was set to begin. The courtroom was already packed. There were at least fi ve men wearing shirts or pullovers with the Evans Landscaping logo.

Eckes spoke on Bailey's behalf, recounting letters regarding Bailey's character that friends and family members wrote to the court.

Those letters described Bailey as a "hard-working man, a loving father and husband, and a loyal friend."

"My father taught me that by working hard and maintaining honesty and morals I could achieve great things," his son, Luke Bailey, wrote in a letter to the court. "Every day he pushes me and everyone around him to be better, simply by leading by example. [...] I wake up every day hoping I can be half the man he is."

Another letter outlined Bailey's eff orts to help a lo-

While federal officials have not officially confi rmed the nature of the probe, several sources have confi rmed that it involves possible minority hiring fraud. THE ENQUIRER/AMANDA ROSSMANN

cal boy in a wheelchair. Documents state Bailey worked to make the Wilson Elementary School playground accessible for all children by planning and fundraising for the project.

Eckes told the judge that going through those letters made Eckes start analyzing his own life and morals. "[Bailey's] selfl essness is just something you breathe in when you're around him," Eckes said.

Eckes told the judge that sending Bailey to prison would not further any legitimate aim of the government. He said the case was "all very confusing to Mr. Bailey" and that Bailey did not gain anything from the Ergon debacle, noting that Bailey took a pay cut during the two main years of Ergon's existence. Ergon is the front company Evans Landscaping used to gain funding intended for minority-owned businesses.

Prosecutors agreed that Bailey should not be given as severe a sentence as Evans, but argued that Bailey should take responsibility as the vice president of the company and a member of the senior management team. Prosecutors suggested a sentence including ser-

vice hours that would perhaps be used to help small businesses or non-profi ts.

During the sentencing, Barrett said he did believe Bailey partook in the conspiracy to fraudulently obtain millions of dollars from the City of Cincinnati and the state, although Barrett did say he believed Bailey was a reluctant participant.

"People must be able to say no," Barrett said.

The specifi cs of Bailey's probation will be discussed between Bailey and the court to work out "health situations," Barrett said.

Court documents state Bailey's wife, Mary, was diagnosed with breast cancer. The documents state she is in remission but still has six months of chemotherapy ahead of her.

"Adding to my stress is the fear that Jim could be taken away from my side," Mary Bailey wrote in her letter to the judge.

Three other Evans Landscaping employees have yet to be sentenced, according to court documents: Korey Jordan, Maurice Patterson and Mike Moeller.

Eye-catching food trends for 2020, and making fi sh in parchment Simple steelhead trout en Papillote (fi sh in parchment) Usually, I top the seasoned fi sh with julienned vegetables like onion, zucchini and carrot mixed with garlic and olive oil. Then a couple lemon slices. And a little white wine for flavor and promoting steam.

But not today. All I had on hand was olive oil, seafood seasoning, lemon juice and parsley, so that’s what I used. The parchment didn’t puff much since there was very little liquid, but the fi sh turned out yummy.

Now if you can, defi nitely make it with the vegetable topping; but if you can’t, I want you to try this simply seasoned version.

Fish wrapped in parchment ready for oven.

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

A few food trends for 2020 have really caught my eye. Among them is the color blue. No, not blueberries. Or even blue potatoes. Have I peaked your interest? Read on.

Purple yams Ube is the new “it” root veggie – actually more purple than blue. It’s showing up in ice creams and donuts.

Mountain spinach Orach, called mountain spinach, is being haled as the new kale. Orach has a bluish purple tint. It won’t bolt to seed as quickly as spinach.

Butterfl y pea The most intriguing of blue foods is butterfl y pea vine. I’ve never heard of it.

Have you? Flowers are brilliant blue and make a super healthy tea. I’ll be planting it and will keep you informed.

Ingredients

Fish cooked in parchment.

For each serving, 6-8 oz. fi sh, skinned and checked for bones Olive oil

Here’s a couple more trends important to me, and, I hope to you: Caring for the planet Watch for edible (?!) and biodegradable packaging, and reusable everything.

Sustainable farming/aquaculture You’ve probably heard of sustainable and regenerative farming for both plants and soil.

Then there’s aquaculture – farm raised fi sh. It continues to evolve.

Both wild and farm raised fi sh can be delicious and healthy. It depends on adherence to sustainable practices, so make informed choices.

We’re determined to eat more healthy fi sh, so I made steelhead trout and roasted it in parchment.

Steelhead looks similar to salmon, and has a mild salmon fl avor. It’s usually less expensive.

Anything baked in parchment looks impressive, though the technique is easy.

Here’s how to make this simple, delicious and, need I say, pretty, dish.

Lemon juice Favorite fi sh seasoning Parchment paper Parsley for garnish (opt) Instructions Preheat oven to 375.

Place each piece of fi sh in center of rather large square (or heart shaped piece) of parchment.

Drizzle on a little olive oil, lemon juice, seasoning and, if using, parsley.

Fold parchment over fi sh. Seal edges very tightly in 1⁄ 44” folds, sort of like crimping pie dough. That creates a half moon shape.

Place on baking sheet and roast 10-12 minutes. Fish flakes easily when done.

Don’t overcook.

Place parchment packages on plates. Open carefully, and if you want, slide fi sh off parchment, making sure to get all juices.

More fi sh that roasts well Salmon, arctic char, flounder or other white fi sh.

No parchment? No problem.

Use foil. It won’t puff, but as long as you seal it (no need to crimp), you’ll have good results.

Viewpoints Doug Evans damaging to legit diverse businesses Byron McCauley Columnist Cincinnati Enquirer

I have no doubt that Cincinnati-area businessman Doug Evans worked hard to become successful and has a big heart, too.

However, he is also a cheater, having gamed a system that fi nally tried to provide a level playing fi eld to minority-owned businesses.

Evans, the owner of Newtown-based Evans Landscaping, was sentenced Jan. 7 to 21 months in federal prison by U.S. District Court Judge Michael Barrett after Evans was convicted of federal conspiracy and wire fraud charges in December 2018. Evans established a front minority-owned company, Ergon Site Construction LLC, that won nearly $2 million in minority contracts over three years from the City of Cincinnati. Evans Landscaping won $11 million in state contracts during the same period by claiming Ergon was involved. In truth, Evans controlled Ergon.

That practice was insidious, shameful and damaging to diverse businesses (owned by women, veterans or minorities) which historically faced hurdles in building successful enterprises, often facing a lack of access to capital, lack of connections and racism. As I wrote in 2017, this case does no favors to legitimate diverse businesses that are not fronts, rather qualifi ed enterprises out there trying to make it the right way.

“The judge’s sentence sends a clear and undeniable message that minority business owners will not be undermined by the greed and hubris of one businessman looking to work the system in his favor. We applaud the decision as we continue to support our minority businessmen and women who now can bid for contracts knowing they do so with justice on their side.”

Eric H. Kearney

President and CEO of the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky African American Chamber of Commerce

No one likes a cheater, but in this case cheating is especially harmful. Businesses and governments seeking to partner with diverse suppliers need to have confi dence in those relationships. Diverse suppliers bidding for contracts need to know the guy against whom they are bidding is not the shark eating all the shad and the goldfi sh food.

“These are the types of questions that come up. Anytime that trust is violated, it is damaging to diverse businesses who can struggle to thrive in the marketplace seeking their unique services,” said Rod Robinson, founder of Mason-based Connxus.

“Not only do we want to ensure that companies are growing and building wealth, but that we are actually a checkpoint. We basically mitigate this type of risk in the supply chain.”

Eric H. Kearney, president and CEO of the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky African American Chamber of Commerce, sent out a statement after Evans was sentenced that off ers a further perspective.

“The judge’s sentence sends a clear and undeniable message that minority business owners will not be undermined by the greed and hubris of one businessman looking to work the system in his favor. We applaud the decision as we continue to support our minority businessmen and women who now can bid for contracts knowing they do so with justice on their side, “ he said.

The Evans case represents a prime example of the need to organically grow more minority-owned businesses.

Thankfully, there are plenty of goodbusiness organizations and private companies that can affi rm the capacity and capabilities of minority businesses.

History of Bethel: ‘Things have sure changed’ thel Lions Club was organized on March 27, 1944. There were 28 charter members. The Lions Club has been very active in Bethel Village and schools. They buy glasses for school children and adults. They raise money to buy uniforms for school sports. The club takes in used glasses and over the years we have collected over 2,000 pairs. These glasses are cleaned and sent to Third World countries.

The Grange in Bethel at one time was one of the largest Granges in Southern Ohio. The Bethel Grange in 1994 merged with Monroe Grange at Nicholsville. The Grange at Nicholsville is still active and serving a meal to a family for Thanksgiving and Christmas presents for a senior at Christmas.

Now I have just touched a small part of the history of Bethel. You might get

one of these books by going to the Bethel Historical Museum. You could also get the history of your area or town. You will be surprised what took place in the 1700s.

The birdfeeders at my house are busy. I see the doves are here eating what fell on the ground and yesterday I saw about 12 or 14 robins here.

Both cats are doing great. Chester still likes to eat the most food. I need to keep a watch on him so Chessie can have some of the canned cat food. Chester still is not happy about Chessie’s presence but will keep looking for her when they are outside.

Start your week by going to the house of worship of your choice and praising the good Lord.

God bless all...

Mike’s Carwash opens new Loveland location

Joi Flowers-Thomas joins the Board at Crayons to Computers

Mike’s Carwash has offi cially opened their newest location at 9675 E Kemper Road in Loveland, just east of I-275. This is the 13th Mike’s Carwash location in the Cincinnati area, and will bring the company to 25 locations in total.

Mike’s total construction investment in the new location was more than $6 million and the new store features the latest carwash technology to ensure the highest quality wash possible. The new store will employ more than 20 team members.

In honor of the opening, the new Loveland location will host a Grand Opening Free Ultimate Wash Weekend from Jan. 24-26. All donations collected throughout the weekend will support The Dragonfl y Foundation and their mission to help pediatric cancer patients and their families fi nd strength, courage and joy by providing ongoing support, relevant materials, and caring, nurturing, and transformative experiences.

Founded in 1948, Mike’s Carwash is headquartered in Loveland, Ohio. The

ments. And for that, Kathy Swensen is grateful. Kathy, a Milford resident, was diagnosed with advanced renal cell (kidney) cancer in 2017 and felt hopeless. She regained hope after a referral to OHC’s Patrick J. Ward, MD, PhD, medical oncologist, hematologist and co-director of OHC’s nationally-recognized clinical research program who sees patients at OHC’s Blue Ash offi ce.

“Dr. Ward recommended I enroll in a kidney cancer clinical trial that was available at OHC. He said the drugs being studied had a lot of potential.”

Before agreeing to the trial, Kathy went to the Cleveland Clinic for a second opinion. She learned that the Cleveland Clinic didn’t off er that specifi c clinical trial. Then she was adamantly told by the Cleveland Clinic doctor, “If you can get in that trial, do it.” So, Kathy came home to OHC and enrolled.

“That clinical trial gave me hope,” Kathy explained. “When I received my diagnosis, I thought my life was over, but OHC made me feel like there was still a chance. OHC was like a light that gave me hope.”

Howdy folks, This article will be somewhat diff erent. A lady in Bethel loaned me a history book about Bethel from 1798 through 1998. She got it from the Bethel Historical Association. It is something to read so get one for yourself to have and read.

It tells about the slavery and how Bethel was involved in this.

Did you know at one time there was a blacksmith shop in Bethel and a shoe factory? In 1895, the shoe factory was making 400 pairs of shoes daily and employed 175 people. In the early days,

skins and pelts were used as money. A muskrat skin represented a quarter, a raccoonskin was 1/3 of a dollar, a doeskin was 50 cents and a buckskin was $1. These were used as money.

A ham was nine cents a pound, eggs were nine cents per dozen, milk was 25 cents a gallon, honey was $1 a gallon, potatoes were 11 cents a bushel, coal was 12 1/2 cents a bushel, chicken pullets were $1 a dozen, turkeys and geese were 89 cents a pair and fresh venison was two cents a pound. Things have sure changed!

Also included in the book was that a feller built a sawmill in Bethel and two years later he built a gristmill.

In 1984, Susan Reeves purchased the full-service Feed Mill and Farm Supply store in Bethel. This is one of the oldest operating businesses in Bethel. The Be-

Schools are in session for less than half a day, but learning continues long past the fi nal bell.

The Clermont Northeastern Elementary School staff recognizes that and is working to increase its engagement with families in order to make the most of the time parents have with their children.

The school hosted a fall curriculum night in October for kindergarten through fi fth-grade students and their families.

This event was an expansion of a similar family night that was held for kindergarten through second-grade in the spring of 2019.

Principal Tonya Schmidt said more than 500 people attended the curriculum night. While the spring night focused on reading, the fall night included math, science and reading activities.

Teachers Stacey Ciraci and Trina Farrell, CNE’s reading specialists, and Diane Fetter, the school librarian, helped organize the activities.

Cincinnati Pickleball Club launches with ambitious vision After years of watching pickleball clubs form in other cities, creating active communities of players in the process, Mitch Dunn and Karen Games decided a Cincinnati-based club was long overdue. They launched the Cincinnati Pickleball Club on Jan. 6.

“There is already a phenomenal community of players in Cincinnati, but the city lacks infrastructure that we think players will really benefi t from,” said Games.

The club’s vision is to transform Cincinnati into the hub of Midwest pickleball.

“A great vision should be audacious. So, when we thought about ours, we thought really big. There is no reason why the city should settle for anything less than being seen as one of the true leaders for pickleball in the country,” said Dunn.

The club’s mission is to facilitate the growth of pickleball in and around Cincinnati via partnership, volunteerism, and innovative thinking in order to meet the needs of all Cincinnati players. The club welcomes anyone to join, regardless of skill level, and will be focused on building an environment that helps people learn the game, improve their skills, and connect socially. “That’s how we will achieve our end goal, by making it easier to play and to help people progress,” said Games.

As anyone who has picked up a paddle knows, the sport is addictive. It is not uncommon to see players go from being introduced to the sport to playing multiple days a week in a matter of months. “The time is right to build a club focused both on the development of the sport and the development of the city. We think the two can and should go hand in hand,” said Dunn.

The club’s virtual home base is cincinnatipickleball.com. The site is where players register to become members, fi nd places to play in the city, and stay on top of the latest news coming out of the club. The club can also be found on Facebook (@cincinnatipickleballclub) and Instagram (@cincinnatipickleball). The club’s annual one-year membership is just $20 for singles and $30 for couples.

SCHOOL NEWS Continued from Page 4B

“The goal is for it to be a combination of events that focus on fun and learning. We also model simple learning activities that parents can do at home with their children,” Schmidt said. “We had all kinds of events, from making popcorn and candy corn witch hands to read-alouds, slime making, dissecting owl pellets, and also a bookwalk where winners are able to pick a book of their choice to take home.”

Tents were set up in the school library, where scavenger hunts were conducted. Every family who attended the event received a ticket for a raffl e in which gift baskets donated by the school’s PTO were raffl ed.

The PTO also supported the event by providing and serving dinner. Parents also donated snacks such as Oreos, Goldfi sh and juice boxes. A Kona Ice truck was on site and proceeds were given to the Clermont Northeastern Foundation.

“We put together raffl e baskets with donations and help from some of our amazing parents,” PTO President Ashley Ledbetter said in an email. “We also set up a station to teach families about the BoxTops for Education app. We collect box tops to help raise money for school.”

“The entire event was free to our families. It is always great to be able to provide food for our evening events so families do not need to worry about providing dinner and can just come out and enjoy the fun,” Schmidt said.

CNE Elementary is also working to reverse a trend that shows kindergarten students coming to school in the fall less and less prepared for school both academically and socially. A new initiative, “Ready Rockets,” is funded by a grant from Dollar General. The initiative has led to the school scheduling parent programs, the fi rst of which was Sept. 24. Kindergarten staff , reading specialists and others, including Schmidt, her assistant principal, Kendra Young, and the school psychologist, Amy Ellis took part.

“The Ready Rockets program for Kindergarten students allows teachers to provide learning and fun activities to do with the students so that parents are free to participate in programs with staff or with special guests. At our fi rst event, parents learned about the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Assessment as well as our school-wide behavioral support and reward system, PBIS (Positive Behaviors, Interventions and Supports),” Schmidt said.

Upcoming “Ready Rockets” programs will feature an informal presentation by the school’s mental health personnel, a visit from an Ohio State nutritionist and

New Richmond Exempted Village School District teachers Betsy Florea, Vicky Phillips, Pat Crowley, and Pam Hughes write curriculum for science.

information from the Owensville Library. Parents will also have opportunities to observe teachers modeling learning activities that parents can do with their children at home.

“The goal is to build strong partnerships with our parents and get them engaged earlier in what we are doing with their children here at school. We want our families to feel more and more comfortable at school and more confi dent and armed with tools that will enable them to teach their children,” Schmidt said.

In January, incoming kindergarteners (fall 2020) will be invited to participate in the Ready Rockets. The goal of this second phase of the program is to try to further impact the outcomes for our youngest students.

“The format will shift to a parent training model.

We’re going to spend our time modeling for parents how to read to their child and how to use questioning strategies to impact comprehension. We plan to teach parents simple things they can do to begin working on math, literacy and social skills,” Schmidt said.

As a part of the initiative, parents will be given books and physical teaching tools (manipulatives) they can take home and use for simple math games, to talk about letters and letter sounds, as will as other early numeracy and literacy activities to help increase the chances of kindergarteners coming to school with the skills they need.

“We’ve been striving to provide more opportunities to get parents into school, and we want to make sure we’re not only having fun events, but also engaging parents in the curriculum as much as possible,” Schmidt said. “I always love an opportunity for teachers to engage the parents and the students outside of the regular school day. I think parents need to see the bonds that have been formed between the students

and the staff here.”

“There will be another K-5 curriculum night in the spring, perhaps focusing on science and social studies activities. We are trying to think of other ways to engage our families and get student activities and learning tools in front of our parents,” Schmidt said.

CNE, in partnership with the community, will provide students with the skills and exploratory experiences that enable them to reach their fullest potential.

To accomplish this, the CNE staff will: ❚ Strive to make children confi dent and creative builders of their future ❚ Research, design, and provide the best academic program and learning environment possible for students.

Schools in the CNE District include Clermont Northeastern High School, Clermont Northeastern Middle School, Clermont Northeastern Elementary School and Clermont Northeastern Preschool.

New Richmond teachers craft curriculum for growth The work of curriculum writing is underway in the New Richmond Exempted Village School District.

A few days before the beginning of winter break, elementary, middle and high school teachers gathered at the central offi ce, rolled up their sleeves, and began creating revised graded courses of study for the Board to approve later this spring.

An essential part of the curriculum writing process is identifying what and when teachers are to teach and students are to learn.

Students at Locust Corner should be learning the same material at relatively the same time as their counterparts at Monroe Elementary, Superintendent Tracey Miller told staff on opening day. There should be a sequence to that learning. This helps to eliminate repetition and ensure ongoing learning and growth for students.

“Students shouldn’t be rewarded or punished based upon who the computer gives them for a teacher or where their zip code says they go to school,” he said.

At that same meeting, Superintendent Miller established expectations for teachers and staff to strive to meet the needs of all district learners. To do this, throughout the school year, the teachers and staff are focusing on four critical questions of a professional learning community: See SCHOOL, Page 10B

What do we want children to know and be able to do?How will we know when they have mastered it?

What will we do when they haven’t learned the learning objectives?

What will we do when they already know the learning objectives?

Writing and sequencing the curriculum is part of the eff ort to answer these questions, Miller said.

The new graded courses of study should be ready for review by the Board of Education’s Curriculum and Instruction Committee by the end of the 2019-2020 school year. Once approved by the committee, it will be presented to the Board for adoption.

Senior Alex Sougstad named National Merit semifi nalist A computer science enthusiast and runner, Summit Country Day School senior Alex Sougstad, New Richmond, has been named a National Merit Scholarship Corporation semifi nalist.

Alex is among 16,000 semifi nalists in the 65th annual National Merit Scholarship Program, Alex had demonstrated an aptitude for technology by the age of 5, becoming adept at computer-based educational games and researching subjects of interest. At age 9, he created an online tutorial for performing a complicated function on a popular design software program, receiving more than 40,000 views.

By age 10, he had taught himself the basics of Photoshop, 3D design, animation and video production,

along with basic level video game development. In seventh grade, when he was living in Indianapolis, he was one of 200 students to qualify for a city-wide math contest, and in ninth grade he captained a robotics team which won third place in a state competition.

Joining The Summit his junior year, he has thrived academically in the school’s rigorous academic environment.

“Alex is one of those students where the more diffi cult the assignment, the more engaged he gets,” says Summit Upper School computer science teacher Mike Thomas. “And when he does solve it, he wants to be sure he has found the most elegant solution possible.

On the odd day when he does struggle with a solution, it is actually fun to watch because he takes it personally and attacks the assignment like a tiger on raw meat.”
