New ‘Rebels’ logo replaces Confederate mascot at Boone County High School Melissa Reinert mreinert@enquirer.com

FLORENCE – The Mr. Rebel image, part of Boone County High School for 60 years, is getting phased out.

Mr. Rebel is a Confederate general who stands tall in a light blue uniform, feathered cap, and English mustache.

Principal Timothy Schlotman said the decision has nothing to do with nationwide efforts to remove symbols of the Confederacy.

Those nationwide movements amped up after a June 2015 mass shooting at an Emanuel AME Church Bible study in Charleston, S.C. Soon after the killing of nine black worshippers, a photograph of the shooter, Dylann Roof, was circulated showing Roof waving a Confederate flag.

The Confederate character mascot is no more at Boone County H.S.

Calls to remove Confederate statues and other symbols have intensified after this month’s deadly car attack at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Here in Kentucky, the city of Lexington voted unanimously Aug. 17 to remove two Confederate statues,

pending approval by the Kentucky Military Heritage Commission.

At Boone County High School, the removal of Mr. Rebel has been a local decision that is considerably more low-key.

Last year Boone County High School’s Site-Based Deci-

A student-created logo – featuring the letter “B” for Boone with “Rebels” in smaller letters and at a right angle inside the “B” – has replaced the Mr. Rebel image. Schlotman said the school has changed its letterhead, business cards and some signage in the building.

“We are replacing things as quickly as possible,” the principal said.

The gym floor was also redone prior to last school year and the Mr. Rebel logo was removed. Schlotman said the administration is eliminating the logo as it can considering the costs of replacing items. Some signage was originally provided by outside companies through sponsorship contracts and are not as easy to quickly replace.

“It is a process,” Schlotman

Boone vote sets motion for hotel bed increase

Scrap for turkeys case could be costly What started as a holiday program trading scrap metal for turkeys in Boone County could cost $150,000.

That’s the amount Boone County will pay former Public Works Director Greg Sketch if the Fiscal Court approves a settlement Tuesday night.

Insurance will pay $100,000 of the cost, officials told The Enquirer. The county will pay $50,000.

Sketch was placed on unpaid leave in 2013 after the county discovered he paid for turkeys with money collected by the county for scrap metal.

The turkeys were given to needy families with children in Boone County Schools.

Sketch used the secret fund of more than $12,000 for five years to pay for the turkeys, an investigation by authorities revealed.

Unfortunately for Sketch, the county Fiscal Court never approved using the money for

sion Making Council – which includes faculty and parent representation – decided to enact a policy stating the school would phase out using the Mr. Rebel logo.

Schlotman approached the council with the idea “because (the logo) did not fit with the global community of our building and the unity we were embracing.”

Schlotman said the idea grew heavy on his heart in July of last year. He belonged to a group that hung flags representing 37 nationalities of students the Florence high school had at that time.

“Personally, I felt that the messages the flags sent did not coincide with the message some may think of with the Mr. Rebel logo,” he said. “That logo just did not capture the image portrayed in the school.”

turkeys.

The county tried to charge Sketch with abuse of public trust.

But a grand jury refused to indict him.

Sketch retired once faced with an administrative hearing.

Two other public works employees resigned.

But then Sketch sued the county, claiming they forced him out without due process.

Sketch claimed in court documents no county statute prevented the use of scrap

metal proceeds for charitable purposes.

“Rather than have the scrap metal simply wasted, (Sketch) properly approved the charitable use of scrap metal,” the lawsuit stated.

The county and Sketch for the past three years have worked on a resolution. They even went through a closed mock trial in March 2016.

Three months later, federal Judge David Bunning dismissed Sketch’s claim and sidSee SCRAP, Page 2A

BURLINGTON - The Boone County Fiscal Court unanimously passed the 1 percent increase to the transient room tax Aug. 8.

Campbell and Kenton counties previously approved the tax increase. Under state law, the county fiscal courts can raise the transient room tax, or hotel bed tax, by 1 percent.

Monies from the increase would help develop a capital fund that would be used primarily for expansion of Northern Kentucky Convention Center, located in downtown Covington.

Once that is complete, monies will be allocated to tourism projects throughout the Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties.

Eric Summe, president, and CEO of meetNKY, applauded all three fiscal courts on their support. The organization, meetNKY, has a mission to serve as an aggressive destination sales, marketing and service organization. Its primary responsibility is to boost the Northern Kentucky economy through conventions, meetings and visitor expenditures.

crease in the region’s hotel tax will pay tremendous dividends for the development of a capital fund that will be used to expand the 204,000-square-foot convention center in downtown Covington,” Summe said. “This will create jobs, attract visitors to hotels, restaurants, businesses, and attractions throughout the region and allow our center to remain competitive with other cities and regions.”

At that time, meetNKY and convention center staff will immediately begin initiating and funding a Center Tourism Master Plan to assess and plan for an expanded center, including a potential timeline.

The mother of the man accused of killing one and injuring 19 in the Aug. 12 domestic terror attack in Charlottesville, Virginia, called 911 from her Florence apartment at least twice reporting her son was attacking or threatening her.

According to records, authorities from the Boone County Sheriff’s Office and the Florence Police Department responded nine times from November 2010 through February 2013 to the condominium of Samantha Bloom, 49 and her son, James Alex Fields Jr. In 2011, Bloom called police to report her son “is being very threatening toward her. The mother is in a wheelchair and doesn’t feel in control of the situation and is scared,” according to police dispatcher notes.

The calls were among details that emerged Aug. 14 regarding the family’s sometimes tumultuous past.

ed with the county. Sketch appealed the decision.

Rather than roll the dice with the appeals court, Boone County opted to settle, Judge-executive Gary Moore said in a statement to The Enquirer.

“While we believe the district court’s judgment was correct, an adverse opinion by the U.S. Court of Appeals would expose the county to additional costs,” Moore said in the statement. “This settlement represents a business decision by the fiscal court.”

Calls to Sketch and his attorneys were not returned.

native, drove his 2010 Dodge Challenger through a crowd of counter-protesters following a white supremacist rally, smashing into two other vehicles and throwing several victims into the air.

Killed was Heather Heyer, 32, of Charlottesville.

From 911 transcripts: » In November 2010, Bloom called police saying he took her phone and “smacked her in the head ... put his hands over her mouth,” after she told him to stop playing video games. She locked herself in the bathroom and Fields had earlier told her that he would “beat her up.” She told the 911 operator that she was afraid of her son. » In February 2011, she called police at 5:20 a.m. to report Fields had not come home and she was worried about him because he was wearing a T-shirt and shorts. Bloom called police back two hours later to report he was home and acting “lethargic.” He threatened to run away if police came to the condo. » In October 2011, she called authorities again saying she felt threatened

by Fields. She was “not assaulted tonight but he is being very threatening toward her. The mother is in a wheelchair and doesn’t feel in control of the situation and is scared.” » The next month, a woman called authorities back to the condo to report that Fields had threatened Bloom. She told dispatch-

ers that he spat in her face, threatened her and pushed her in the past. That caller said they wanted authorities to take Fields to be assessed, saying Fields was afraid to take him herself in a car.

Records show Bloom and Fields Jr. lived at the Meadows of Farmview address for 10 years. Bloom told media she had recently moved to Maumee, Ohio, for her job and that Fields had moved out recently.

Former classmates, teachers say they saw strange behavior Caitlin Wilson, a graduate of Randall K. Cooper High School who went to school with Fields, said as early as middle school Fields would draw swastikas and talk about loving Hitler.

“When I saw his mugshot, I wasn’t shocked,” she said.

Wilson agrees with the assessment Cooper Principal Michael Wilson gave of Fields on Aug. 13: That he was quiet and kept to himself.

She said when Fields would speak up, it wasn’t friendly.

Boone County Schools spokeswoman Barbara Brady said school officials were not aware of any situation at Cooper High regarding Fields’ behavior at the time of his enrollment.

She also said that former Cooper teacher Derek Weimer never reached out to the administration about his concerns, countering what Weimer had told The Enquirer and several other media outlets.

Weimer said Aug. 13 that Fields was very interested Adolf Hitler and once submitted an assignment that was “very much along the party lines of the neo-Nazi movement.”

Brady also called into question the trustworthi-

ness of former Cooper students who had taken to social media to talk about Fields’ behavior.

“How can you trust that information now if they didn’t do anything about it then?” she asked via email.

Brady also said she wondered why students didn’t report Fields’ behavior at the time, adding, “Now they are crawling out of the woodwork to get their 15 seconds of fame to say they knew something back then.”

When asked, Wilson, the former classmate, said she and others didn’t report it.

“This is something I’m guilty of, too, I kind of brushed it off as just creepy,” Wilson said. “We thought it was all talk. No one ever thought he would do something so violent.”

Another student, Keegan McGrath, 18, told the Associated Press he was roommates with Fields on a class trip to Europe in 2015. He told the AP Fields referred to Germany as “the Fatherland,” had no interest in being in France, and refused to interact with the French.

“He had friends, he had people who would chat with him, it wasn’t like he was an outcast,” McGrath told the AP.

Boone County Schools did not provide exact enrollment dates for Fields despite multiple requests, but did say he graduated in 2015.

Bloom’s life filled with tragedy, lost parents to murder-suicide Past newspaper reporting paints a bleak picture of Bloom’s life even before the Aug. 12 events and the 911 calls from Florence.

James Alex Fields Sr. died in an Erlanger crash Dec. 5, 1996, after a vehicle in which he was riding struck a utility pole, according to an Associated Press article from two days later.

He was 33 at the time of death. Fields Jr. would be born to Bloom a little more than five months later.

The AP article said the driver was charged with murder in Field Sr.’s death after he and another passenger left Fields Sr. in the vehicle to return to a bar they had left.

According to the article, responding officer Sgt. Tim Thames, said in an affidavit a motorist stopped him to tell him that he had recently stopped at the wreck to offer assistance to two men

standing next to the car.

The article continues, “(the passing motorist) didn’t know Fields was still in the car, Thames said.

At their request, the motorist took (the driver of the wrecked car) and (the passenger) back to the bar, where police later found them, Thames said.”

Then, on Aug. 21, 1984, when Samantha Bloom was 16, her father killed her mother then himself, according to a Kentucky Post article from the time.

Marvin Bloom, 42, and Judy Bloom, 37, had recently divorced. Judy Bloom moved into an apartment on Davjo Drive in Cold Spring with Samantha four to five months before Marvin killed Judy and himself with a shotgun outside the apartment, according to the article.

A witness at the apartment complex told police they heard the screams at the time of the shooting.

They were Samantha Bloom’s, police said.

Fields Jr. was denied bail in Virginia Aug. 13, making his court appearance via video from jail.

The hearing for Fields is set for Aug. 25.

He has been charged with second-degree murder and several other counts.

“My grandmother was part of the first graduating class that chose this mascot and there is no reason at all to change it,” he said. It’s part of the heritage of our community.

There’s no negative racial connotation with it. They were literally in a meeting about it when the principal yelled at them that they are all just a bunch of rebels ... and it stuck.”

Schlotman confirmed the history and said: “Story is, it was after the James Dean movie ‘Rebel Without a Cause.’” A New York Times critic called the 1955 film release “a violent, brutal and disturbing picture of modern teenagers.”

Ely said that Mr. Rebel, the mascot, is a character only. His great-uncle actually wore the mascot suit for decades during games. Brandy Denny, 30, of Walton, called the Mr.

Rebel mascot “iconic, like Tony the Tiger is to Frosted Flakes.

“I look at it this way, it’s all a part of our history and what could make us stronger as a nation. He could stand as a reminder that we are strong as athletic teams but also as a piece of history. Reminders of what we went through to get where we are now,” Denny said.

According to Schlotman, there are no plans to replace the mascot, however, the costume won’t be used.

Schlotman, who is going into his second year as principal, starting his 33rd year at the high school, said he “feels a strong connection to this school and our history but also understands we are a school representative of a global community.”

That global community continues to grow, he

said, with 40 flags now hanging in the commons area. This global pride is seen, he said, standing strong among the students. Every year, during senior exit interviews, Schlotman said the administration consistently hears the best thing about the school has been its diversity.

“Students like meeting people from around the world and learning about their customs and cultures and how to get along,” he said.

“Our school community embraces our diversity and appreciates the character our global community brings to our school,” Schlotman said. “We celebrate that and welcome all students from around the globe to a great, caring and understanding place to learn.”

said. “The areas we can fix quickly we are, some others just will take a bit more time. With a school that has been here since 1955, it will take some time to make that transition.”

According to Schlotman, there has not been much feedback from students, parents or alums.

“We did get some feedback worrying we were changing our name Rebels, which we are not planning on doing. We can have that nickname and our school colors not associated with a Mr. Rebeltype mascot.”

But Chad Ely, 39, of Hebron, said he doesn’t believe there is anything offensive about the Mr. Rebel image.

The season will feature work from some of The Carnegie’s favorite artists, as well as newcomers to the gallery. New this year, the upstairs galleries will feature a seasonlong installation format, while the Ohio National Financial Services Main Gallery and the Hutson Gallery will host a rotating lineup of exhibitions.

The lineup includes:

Ohio National Financial Services Main Gallery » ”The Other Thing,” Sept. 15 through Nov. 19.

Organized with painter Michael Stillion, this exhibition highlights artists that are bending disciplines and moving between sculpture, drawing, painting, film/video, all seeking to upend expectations and subvert how artistic media behave. » Studio Open 2, Dec. 1 through Feb. 4. Continuing and expanding on last season’s exhibition, Studio Open 2, exhibits works by recent graduates of fine arts programs from universities across the region. Works will be presented in all disciplines and demonstrate the strength of emerging artists in this area. » The 12th Annual Art of Food, Feb. 8-9, 2018.

The 12th version of this

event will once again feature a stellar cast of chefs, artists, and performers. » ”It’s a Beautiful Mess:” Julia Ranz, Paige Williams, William Renschler, and others, March 2 through April 29. Organized with artist/ curator Krista Gregory, “It’s a Beautiful Mess” focuses on the way in which an artist’s studio process is translated into a gallery setting. A particular question the show addresses is can objects made in a working studio or even a domestic setting communicate the same pure ideas when displayed in the white box of a gallery. » Swap Meet, May 11 through July 1, 2018.

Swap Meet is organized with the creative team behind Thunder-Sky Inc., an unconventional gallery based in Northside. For this exhibition, artists will be invited to exhibit unfinished or unwanted works from their studios that, over the course of the exhibition other artists will complete or “fix” for them.

Hutson Gallery » ”Text & Subtext & Big Deal,” Sept. 15 through Nov. 19.

learn and spell words. She has enjoyed participating in her class and school bees and has been the School Spelling Bee Champion for three consecutive years at Longbranch Elementary.

After placing sixth and first runner-up at the regional level in the past two years, Rakesh bagged the regional championship title this year and moved onto compete at the na-

tional level.

She went through 26 rounds of tough competition before she won the title of 2017 Regional Spelling Bee Champion. This victory resulted in Rakesh winning an all expense paid trip to Washington, D.C., and a week long stay at the Gaylord Resort and Convention Center at National Harbor.

Rakesh was one amongst the top 291 speller finalists out of the 11 million that competed around the country this year.

"I am honored to have represented Longbranch and Kentucky. It was a wonderful experience for me to participate in the 2017 Scripps National Spelling Bee," Rakesh said.

Doran receives scholarship at Morehead State Shelby Doran, of Burlington, was named as the recipient of the Liza Angelicchio Memorial Scholarship by the Morehead State University Foundation along with the Morehead Area Chi Omega Alumni Chapter.

Doran, a senior, plans to complete her degree in nursing. This past summer, she spent more than 400 hours doing an internship at the VA hospital in Lexington.

Doran met Angelicchio in the fall of 2013.

She has logged countless hours of philanthropy towards the Make-A-Wish Foundation and community service for the city of Morehead. She also served on the executive board of Chi Omega for two years in a row, including president in 2016.

In 2013, Angelicchio received a bonemarrow transplant. Despite some improvements, she suffered several setbacks, including an extremely rare complication from the bone marrow transplant, she lost her battle on July 9, 2016.

The scholarship is a one-time award and will be awarded to a new recipient annually pending available funding.

Covington Partners launches #20mentors20days campaign Covington Partners has launched a #20Mentors20Days campaign to recruit 20 new adult volunteers to serve as mentors.

The campaign will lead to the first day of school for Covington Independent Public Schools on Aug. 23. During the 20162017 school year, 236 adult volunteers spent more than 3,800 hours mentoring students in grades three to 12. Having a positive and consistent adult role model in their life helps students achieve in school – last year 75 percent of students with a mentor had good school attendance and 79 percent had good school behavior. Additionally, 94 percent of students with a mentor reported that their mentor helped them to improve their schoolwork or grades.

“Recruiting an additional 20 mentors will help us to significantly reduce our waiting list of students who would benefit from the mentoring program,” said Stacie Strotman, executive director of Covington Partners “And we have options to meet anyone’s busy schedule.”

Elementary Lunch Buddy - The Lunch Buddy program is great for volunteers who do not have much time, or who enjoy interacting with elementary-age children. Mentors are matched with a third- to fifth-grade student and spend 30 minutes each week during the student’s scheduled lunch-

Elementary Afterschool Buddy - The AfterSchool Buddy program is great for mentors who would prefer to stop in to visit on their way home from work in the late afternoons, or who need flexibility in their meeting times. Mentors are matched with a third- to fifth-grade student and spend 30–60 minutes each week after school (between 3:15 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.).

Middle School and High School Mentor - At Holmes Middle and High Schools, mentors are matched with a sixth- to 12th-grade student and commit to meeting for one hour per week. Mentors can be school-based if they prefer to meet at school between 8 a.m. and

3 p.m. For mentors who prefer to spend time with a student outside of school hours and the school setting, they can be in a community-based match.

Community-based matches meet in the evenings or on weekends and can spend their time seeing a movie, having dinner together, or hanging out at a local park.

All mentoring matches have access to a staff member who is available to support and guide the relationship if mentors should have any questions or concerns.

Taste old-fashioned, word-of-mouth cube steak Chicken fried/aka country fried cube steak It’s going to be hard to give you an explicit recipe for this, since it’s one of those passed down by word of mouth. Here’s how I did it: Ingredients Cubed beef steaks - I had 4 Canadian/Montreal steak seasoning (I make my own but it’s available at all grocery stores and is worth having) Flour 1 egg beaten with 2/3 cup milk Vegetable oil

Instructions Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of steak.

Dredge in flour on both sides. Dip quickly in egg/milk mixture.

Dredge in flour again.

Place in skillet with hot oil (heat on medium until it just starts to “shimmer” and you see a tiny bit of smoke).

Fry on one side until brown, a few minutes.

Turn over and fry until brown on other side.

Keep warm on a plate while making gravy: Milk gravy Ingredients 1/4 cup oil from frying including brown bits 1/3 cup flour Milk

Teen burn survivor hosts golf benefit for Shriners Hospital Burn survivor, author and Xavier University sophomore Kilee Brookbank will host her Third Annual Kilee Brookbank Celebrity Golf Tournament to benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children-Cincinnati Aug. 28 at A.J. Jolly Golf Course in Alexandria.

The previous two events have raised almost $100,000 for Shriners Cincinnati, where Brookbank was a patient for 38 days in 2014.

“When I was recovering at Shriners, sometimes it seemed like I might never be healthy and ‘normal’ again, much less be able to raise so much money for the hospital,” Brookbank, 19, said.

She suffered second- and third-degree burns on 45 percent of her body after an explosion at her Georgetown home.

“The Shriners team saved my life, and as soon as I got out of the hospital, I just wanted to do something to give back.”

This year’s golf outing will feature celebrities, including current and former Cincinnati Reds players Adam Duvall and Tom Browning; local broadcasters Jeff Piecoro and George Vogel; former Kentucky basketball standout Deron Feldhaus, and former Bengal John Jackson.

In addition to the golf outing, a silent auction will allow participants to bid on items such as airfare to and accommodations in Key West, Florida; Riverbend concert tickets; autographed sports memorabilia; Kendra Scott jewelry, and an Ultimate Air Shuttle trip to New York City.

“It’s amazing to see how many people have come together to play in or donate to this outing, all for the purpose of helping Shriners,” Brookbank said.

“Shriners cares for kids regardless of their families’ ability to pay, so it takes everyone’s effort and donations to make that possible.”

S ns, E T noo A E r ds M e E I t T , Af ken R S F E E ings Wee M orn nd O H le M gs a IN ilab enin

Brookbank and her family founded the nonprofit Kilee Gives Back Foundation to support Shriners Cincinnati, and a portion of the proceeds from her book, “Beautiful Scars,” also are being donated to the hospital.

Brookbank, who has been featured on TV programs such as “The Doctors” and “Inside Edition” and in magazines such as Woman’s World and Girls’ Life, said she hopes this year’s event exceeds the $55,565 raised in the 2016 outing.

Registration is open for this year’s golf event at kileegivesback.org/ events.

All players receive a premium gift bag, and food and drinks are complimentary throughout the day.

Shotgun start is at noon, followed by the silent auction and dinner from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR FFA chapter finds seven bags of garbage I am a member of the Cooper FFA Chapter. Our chapter recently had the opportunity to take part in Trash for Cash on July 26. We had a total of six members and two advisers come out to clean up our local roads, specifically along Longbranch Road and the area surrounding Cooper High School.

We started by dropping off a group of four at the end of Longbranch Road with two people on both sides of the road.

We left three people at the school and they also worked their way toward the other group so we met in the middle to maximize our time. The total trash pickup time was approximately three hours.

Everyone one was taken aback by how many items people throw out their windows without a second thought about what it does to the environment and the beauty of our roadsides.

We all learned how important it is to find a garbage can instead of throwing stuff out on the roadsides. In total we collected about seven bags of garbage.

This was an eye-opening experience for our chapter. We realized that as active members in our community, it is our responsibility to spread the word and encourage others to keep Boone County beautiful and clean.

Karri Long Reporter, Cooper High School FFA

Some do not take the effort to keep Florence clean Earlier this year we decided to involve out Scout Troop 836, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, for the Trash for Cash activity.

This is the second consecutive year that our troop participates and it is a great opportunity to contribute to our beautiful county.

The activity on July 8 went very well without any surprises. Many time we would find trash on the floor near trash cans, which is sad, since it shows that some people do not take the effort to

keep the city clean.

We had conversations about litter and how it affects how a neighborhood looks and the impact on its residents.

While cleaning the streets, people on bikes and joggers would thank us showing appreciation for cleaning the public area.

Picking up other people’s trash is not fun, but from the other side we were glad to contribute to keep the city clean.

It is important to increase awareness to all of the residents of the county of its responsibility to keep the city clean.

Yuri Gavarret Troop 836 Florence

Living out the Girl Scout Law This past weekend our Girl Scout Troop 116, consisting of students from both Gray Middle School and Walton-Verona middle and high schools, had the opportunity to live out the Girl Scout Law by making the world a better place.

We gathered around the streets of Walton Park, School Road by the schools, and on the streets surrounding Walton Kroger with bags, gloves and litter sticks in hand ready for community trash pickup.

This experience was eye-opening to the girls to see the variety of trash items that are obviously thrown out without care for the environment.

What if all of us threw our drink bottles, cigarette boxes, and unwanted mail/newspapers out the car window for someone else to pick up?

The girls learned what a burden it can be to expect someone else to clean up after your mess.

Why not be patient and wait until you're near the next trash can? The girls even suggested making it a habit to clean out your car every time you stop to get gas. Individually we can do our part to make sure that our shared space remains litter-free and a desirable community in which to live.

Early childhood learning is important for all children The Importance of Early Childhood Development Child development from birth to 5 years is the foundation for a prosperous and sustainable society. Neurological research shows that the early years play a key role in children’s brain development.

Your child’s social, emotional and physical development has a direct impact on the adult they will become. Today’s children are tomorrow’s citizens, employees and parents. If we invest wisely in them, the next generation will reflect that through a lifetime of productivity and responsible citizenship. Evidence tells us that if we get it right in the early years we can expect to see children thrive throughout school and their adult lives. When we fail to provide children with a strong foundation to live healthy and productive lives, we put our future prosperity and security at risk.

Preschool programs provide

early childhood education and care for children, and help them develop a range of skills that make them ready to learn when Barbara they start Cain-Brady school, such as: Social COMMUNITY RECORDER GUEST skills, lanCOLUMNIST guage skills, executive function skills, and emotional self-regulation skills.

Here are some fast facts about the importance of Early Childhood learning and development: » Preschool can help combat crime, teen pregnancy and high school dropout rates. A child without an early childhood education is 25 percent more likely to drop out of school, 40 percent more likely to become a teenage parent, and 70 percent more likely to be arrested for a violent crime.

» Children who participate need fewer services over the course of their lifetime. The benefits include reduced need for special education and grade retention. » Preschool puts children from vulnerable families on even footing with more affluent families as they prepare to start school.

To get your child started with the best educational opportunities the Boone County School district has recently opened the Boone County Early Learning Center in partnership with Children’s Inc., United Way Success by 6 and the Northern Kentucky Community Action Commission.

This collaborative effort allows us to serve children ages six weeks through 5 years old that live in the Boone County School District.

Barbara Cain-Brady is Boone County Schools community relations coordinator. She is married with two school-age children.

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION

“I think I would have to call mine ‘Gateway Drug to Love.’ It seems that throughout my life I have had the pleasure of being beside women who are in love.

“The downside is that typically, it wasn’t with me. I was able to be their pathway to true happiness and fulfillment.

“Some may ask, ‘Does this make you bitter?’ I would have to answer most definitely yes.

A guide to motorcycle laws in Kentucky Under Kentucky law, there are specific regulations dealing with operators of motorcycles, motorcycle licenses and required equipment as to motorcycles.

Specifically, a person shall not operate a motorcycle on a highway unless that person (i) possesses a valid motorcycle operator’s license, (ii) uses an approved eye protection device at all times while the vehicle is in motion and (iii) the motorcycle is equipped with a rear-view mirror.

An instruction driving permit for a motorcycle can be obtained if a person possesses a regular valid driver’s license

Steve Franzen COMMUNITY RECORDER GUEST COLUMNIST

or is at least 18 years of age.

Similar to automobile licenses, an instruction permit for a motorcycle must be used for six months if a person is under 21 years of age and for 30 days if over

21 years of age.

Also, those under 18 years of age with instruction permits cannot operate a motorcycle or other motor vehicle between the hours of midnight and 6

a.m. unless they can demonstrate good cause for riding, such as an emergency, school function or work. Moreover, those with motorcycle instruction permits are not permitted to carry passengers.

If a motorcycle is to be operated on a highway, then the motorcycle owner is required to carry at least liability insurance on the motorcycle and to license the vehicle through the County Clerk’s Office. There is also a provision under the law that a person shall not operate or ride as a passenger on a motorcycle except on a seat permanently attached to the vehicle and

specifically designed to carry the operator or the passenger in a safe manner and also while using a foot rest permanently attached to the vehicle and specifically designed to carry that person in a safe manner.

Since 2000 when the Kentucky Legislature repealed the state’s helmet law, those over 21 years of age who have had a valid motorcycle operator’s license for at least one year are permitted to operate motorcycles without wearing helmets. Also, passengers over 21 years of age can elect not to wear helmets if the operator meets the law’s requirements.

However, it is not recommended under any circumstance and one certainly has to question the wisdom of doing such.

Anyone with only an instruction permit or under the age of 21 years of age must wear protective head gear.

Teams chase dynasties, work to build own

With state in sights, teams vie for dominance

Claude Thompson Cincinnati

Dynasties define soccer in Kentucky with two legacies towering above the others with St. Xavier leading the pack with 12 state championships while Ballard High School, located in the Eastern suburbs of Louisville, has nine state championships.

Beyond that, no school has more than four and most schools only have one or two.

A school looking ahead to break through the glass ceiling is Covington Catholic. Led by former Highlands head coach Jeremy Robertson now in his sixth season, Covington Catholic secured its first title in 2015 and narrowly missed taking back-to-back state championships after losing to Daviess County in 2016 on shootouts.

“It’s hard for any team to win a state title,” Robertson said. “It’s hard for any team to get back to there twice. Losing in shootouts was hard, but we were able to keep our heads high and appreciate the history that we made with the program and us doing that. Our goal is getting back to that state final, so can we do it three years in a row? That’s the big question.”

Covington Catholic is on the verge of winning 20 straight district champions dating all the way back to 1997 and is the top-ranked team in our preseason coaches’ poll finalized on August 14th.

Despite losing all-time leading scorer, Griffin Lamb, to graduation, Robertson believes his team has what it takes to

continue to succeed.

“In the region that we have, it’s very important to have success,” Robertson said. “There’s still a lot of good programs in our region. Our main goal is to win the region and winning it three years in a row will be a great accomplishment for us. We’re not going to have a guy on paper who is really going to stand for the program. We don’t have that guy that is really going to put up 2530 goals for us. It’s going to be very important that we play as a team and stay positive, because we are going to hit some bumps and take our bruises, because we have a pretty hard schedule.”

Ryle is also familiar with championship woes, being one of the teams in Kentucky that doesn’t have a state championship. The team, under 13-year head coach Stephen Collins, finished as state runners up in 2006 to Bowling Green and in 2011 to St. Xavier.

“The success is all done by the players,” Collins said. “Without the players, the success is going to come and go. I’ve been very blessed over 13 years to have a lot of quality players come through the program. That’s what keeps me going. I just love being with the players and seeing them grow and develop.”

Collins’ team returns five starters from last year’s regional runner-up team and looks to surpass 200 total wins at Ryle this season. The way his team plans to do that is by the tried and true way of winning championships.

Kentucky high school girls soccer gets underway as school begin vying for league and state titles.

Like their Cincinnati United rivals, Northern Kentucky club soccer Kings Hammer Academy sent multiple teams to the U.S. Youth Soccer Midwest Regional Championships in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, representing some of Kentucky’s best high school players. With the high school season beginning, those who were once teammates see themselves now as opponents.

One team with heavy KHA representation is Simon Kenton’s squad under third-year head coach Rob Zoeller.

In 2016, Simon Kenton went 21-4-1 on a run that included a league championship, a district title, and a regional title with a team that only featured one senior as a starter and two seniors overall.

“We had a good year last year and we’re going to try and build on it. The goal is unchanged and that’s a state championship. Our schedule is loaded with great teams and we’re looking forward to it.”

Zoeller returns 13 starters, more than a full clip of on-field personnel, including multiple players from the KHA squad including Tatum Ponzer, Skylin Yates, Haley Dougherty, Ainsleigh Spaulding, Hunter Clark and Maria Abbinante. The team also returns Cayla Coleman who is back from a season-ending injury last season that she received during her time with the

national futsal team.

“It’s definitely a good thing to return so many players. We have about 14 kids that can start. I feel like we have really good depth. We can put anybody in off the bench and they can come in and contribute. Even after this year, we only have four seniors, so we’ll still bring back a large majority of the roster. We started eight freshman and sophomores. The program is coming along.”

The Kings Hammer connection isn’t lost on Zoeller, who believes the additional experience his players get is important to his team’s development.

“I think it’s invaluable. Those club coaches have access to those kids for almost nine months. That training can be second to none. We asked a lot of our players to step up their level this year and they really responded last years.

They tried out for higher level teams and made some jumps. They’ve pushed themselves more and they can do more in the offseason and winter. It’s been a good building progress and we can play against anyone in the state.”

One such team may very well be Beechwood High School led by firstyear head coach Amie Taphouse who leads a young team that finished 10-9.

With only one senior and two juniors, the team has a lot of room to grow and improve.

“We have a young team with a lot of spirit,” Taphouse said. “The three upperclassmen are enthusiastic leaders on and off the field while the younger See GIRLS , Page 2B

Boone County honors deceased captain Abbey Zimmer James Weber jweber@communitypress.com

FLORENCE - Abbey Zimmer couldn’t be in her high school gymnasium Aug. 17.

But she was everywhere.

She was on a picture on the wall of the Boone County High School gymnasium with the other five members of her senior class. Her name was on shirts emblazoned with her favorite color, orange.

She was there in spirit as the school honored her in its home opener for the volleyball program.

Zimmer, a starter and team captain last year, died March 31 at age 16. She would have been a senior this school year, and her family and friends made sure she will never be forgotten.

The Rebels raised $5,205 for a scholarship fund in her name during the home match Aug. 17, said head coach Mackenzie Martin. A scholarship will be given to a graduating senior athlete in the spring.

The phrase “Orange for Abbey,” which dotted social media after her death, has been a rallying cry since then.

Many area schools, including Boone’s county rivals, saw their students pose for pictures in their gyms at the time with everyone wearing orange.

That held true Thursday night. A majority of the fans had on orange shirts or something else with her name. The players donned orange headbands, and the libero jersey sported by sophomore Madison Gilbert is now that color (Zimmer played that position).

CovCath rolls over Ryle in opener James Weber Enquirer

PARK HILLS - Electricity was the name of the game at Covington Catholic Friday night.

The first play of the 2017 season at the newly renovated Dennis Griffin Stadium was a 75-yard touchdown catch by one Mr. Football candidate, Jake Chisholm of Ryle.

But on a night when CovCath used its new LED lights for the first time in a regular-season football game, it was the Colonels’ Mr. Football candidate who shone the brightest in the end.

A.J. Mayer, a senior quarterback and Miami University commit, had a huge first half as CovCath beat Ryle 49-17 in the season opener for both teams.

Mayer accounted for five touchdowns in the first half to lift the Colonels to a 42-7 halftime lead. He completed 9 of 15 passes for 181 yards, including three pinpoint bullets for long gains: 48 to Alex Christmann, 46 to Malachi Pike and 38 to Sam Schuh. Christmann’s was for a touchdown. Jack Coldiron had a 20-yard touchdown reception and Michael Mayer a 4-yard touchdown catch.

Mayer rushed three times for 18 yards and two scores in the half, including a 17yard touchdown run in which he bulldozed over two Ryle defenders to the goal line.

Ryle scored on the first play of the game, when junior quarterback ke Smith, in his first start, threw a quick out to Chisholm on the left side. Chisholm cut back inside, then out ran everyone to the right sideline for a score.

Ryle had only 71 yards offense and three first downs the rest of the first half.

Kam Butler, a starting inside linebacker and a future Miami RedHawk player, had seven tackles in the half.

Schuh and Alex Schneider had interceptions of Smith in the second quarter to set up the Colonels on short touchdown drives. In the final minute of the half,

Ryle’s Jacob Chisholm is tackled by Covington Catholic’s Michael Mayer and Kameron Butler last Friday.

Schuh put on a great open-field block to free Casey McGinness for a long punt return to the Ryle 20. Mayer threw his 20yard TD pass to Coldiron on the next play to make it 42-7.

CovCath had 276 yards offense in the first half. McGinness had 53 on the ground. Mayer connected with six different receivers in front of a standing-room only crowd.

“We were coming in, 50 years of CovCath football,” Mayer said. “You can’t have a better atmosphere. We expected to come in and try to beat them right away, make some plays, especially defensively. It was a great atmosphere in front of all the fans.”

Jacob Shriver scored on a 37-yard run with 1:42 to go in the third to make it 49-7 and start the KHSAA running clock.

Kyle England scored on an 84-yard run in the final minute of the third quarter for Ryle.

Mayer threw for 267 yards in the game on 14 of 23 completions. That included another long bomb, of 49 yards, to Coldiron.

McGinness rushed for 60 yards.

Mayer left the game with a right knee injury in the second half. He said he “tweaked” it and would be ready to go next week.

Shields, who retired following the 2003-04 season with a career record of 306-170, was named NCAA Division II Coach of the Year once and Great Lakes Valley Conference Coach of the Year three times. After his final season, he received a special award from the National Association of Basketball Coach-

“They were absolutely amazing, completely supportive,” Martin said. “I contacted them at the beginning to give them a heads-up about what we were doing, and from the get-go Matt said we would participate.”

Lynsey Steffen is one of the five seniors who suited up Thursday, including Hunter Corman, Caby Furnish, Erica Novogroski and Peyton Robinson.

“The crowd was amazing, how we supported Abbey and honored her,” Steffen said. “I’m so proud of my team and our chemistry and how we pulled it together for her -- to play for her, the fans, her family and friends. We played awesome against Dixie. Dixie is a really good team this year. Having Dixie supply the warmup shirts for us was awesome.

They really respected us. All of NKY has respected us and supported us through this.”

Respect and support in honor of Zimmer, who always tried to make everyone else’s lives better.

“I just miss her personality,” Steffen said. “On the court, she was supportive.

She pumped us up and she never got down on herself. Off the court, she was a great friend, got along with everyone.

She was never mean or dismissive. She was a genuine good friend to everyone, even people she never met before. After her death, people would say ‘I saw her in the hallways and she was always smiling. I didn’t know her, but this was so sad.’ Abbey is who I am today and who a lot of people are today because of her.”

Steffen said the team bond has grown since that terrible day in the spring.

“It was really hard for all of us,” she said. “We all got together at Peyton Robinson’s house. We sat there and were silent and cried. We all just stayed together. We knew in that moment that we had to stick together because there was a lot of hurt going around. We needed to be there for each other. We were together every day. We grew together and we became stronger.”

Martin said the team will do things to honor Zimmer and her family for the entire season, and she will always be with them.

“If you ask any of our underclassmen, she made sure none of them were alone in the gym,” Martin said. “If someone was having trouble, she would be the first one to go talk to them. It’s felt throughout our entire program because she touched every single person. She had the kindest heart I’ve ever seen. She was also so goofy and it was so fun to be around her on the court.”

The Rebels have learned lessons from Zimmer’s death and they want to make her proud of them.

“It’s going to be hard forever,” Steffen said. “It’s the worst feeling ever. I think about it every day.

“She was the true definition of caring.

She cared for everyone. Her passion that she had in her heart was truly inspiring.

She helped me grow into a more passionate person.”

fourth place finish in the ninth region.

The team did manage to finish as the state semi-finalist in All-A in 2016.

“You just hope as a coach that all of that chemistry and all of that hard work falls into place,” Martin said. “I’ve got some seniors that realize that they have to make it happen, so that’s what I’m excited about. Every year is a new year. Every year you make mistakes, you learn from them, and then you move on. You do the best you can.”

The team returns six starters back to the team with a focus on speed, according to Martin, and he says there is plenty of potential for six seniors to start in the attacking field positions.

“You go as far as your seniors will take you,” Martin said. “This senior class is as talented as any senior class I’ve ever had. They’re hungry after finishing in the Semifinals in the All-A state tournament. They came in with a chip on their shoulders and they’ve got great leadership. It’s the most competitive senior class I’ve ever had. We got a long way to go and some work to do, but with the maturity and work ethic that they came in with we’ve got some proving to do.”

NCC also will produce its first Division I college prospect in senior Logan Muck, who has an offer and verbal commitment to Evansville. Martin believes that the “second to none” competition that his team faces in Northern Kentucky is a part of that development.

day that we hit practice, we stress defense. We will sometimes move our best offensive players to the defense, because that’s just been a trademark that has allowed us to succeed over the years.

If you can stop the other team from scoring, you have a chance to win. If you have a shutout it takes only one (goal) to win.”

Collins leans on the competition in Kentucky to make his team better without scheduling teams he knows his team can beat and taking the path of least resistance.

“I love Northern Kentucky. You see a lot of teams; you see a lot of different styles of play, a lot of different physicalities. We’ll travel with our team. We’re going to Louisville for a game. We’ll go to Lexington. One of the things I try to do when I put together a schedule is that I put together teams that play various styles, because when you get to the playoffs, you never know who you’re going to face and what style they’re going to play.

I want my players to have seen speed teams, possession teams, physical teams, and long ball teams.”

One of the various teams Ryle will see throughout the season will be Newport Central Catholic. In head coach Jeff Martin’s third year, the team looks to improve on last year’s 14-9-0 record and a

girls are willing to learn new positions to make the team better.”

Highlands is ranked second on the Enquirer’s preseason coaches poll behind Notre Dame Academy in head coach Brian Wiefering’s fourth year at the front of the program. Last year, the team amassed a 20-3-1 record and finished as a regional finalist.

Highlands returns nine starters to the team that has helped extend the winning season streak to four for the team, but the team will face some of the most difficult teams moving forward as their schedule features some of the who’s who of soccer in the Great Cincinnati area, including Ryle, Simon Kenton, Newport Central Catholic, NDA, St. Henry, Boone County, and Ohio’s St. Ursula Academy.

Villa Madonna will face off against Beechwood while attempting to continue their winning ways under sixth-year head coach Glenn Rice who has led the team to five consecutive winning seasons, including a 2016 Northern Kentucky Athletic Conference Division 3 Championship. Villa returns 10 starters including defenders that set a school record with 10 consecutive shutouts and 12 total shutouts in the 2016 season. Seniors Maddie Malone and Maddie Schenthal have the potential to finish the 2017 season among Villa’s all-time leaders in total points scored.

“We return a strong group of defend-

ers and a very talented Keeper,” Rice said. “We have a good midfield and solid strikers. In addition to having a hardworking group of seniors, we also have a number of sophomores who will be expected to make important contributions throughout the season.”

Boone County High School returns six starters to the team, including junior Rielyn Hamilton, who led the team last season with 33 goals and is eyeing the team record of 35 this season. Head coach Mike Hughes is in his 10th year at the helm of the program and helped guide the team to a 16-5-3 record and finished in the final four at the regional tournament.

“We’re young. We have nine freshman on varsity. I know that we can start off with any team that we play, but when you’re young you have to learn how to finish a game out. I think we’ve been successful at either winning or being tied late into the first or second half before our youth lacks the experience to close it.

We’ve shown progress towards that.”

Boone County High School is ranked seventh in our coaches poll finalized on August 14th. Hughes believes that the competition in Northern Kentucky is as good as anywhere else in the state.

“If you look back at the final four in the state tournament in recent years, a Region Nine team has either been in it or has won it probably 85 percent or more in the last ten years,” Hughes said. “We’re a final-four-caliber region. Getting out of our region is awful. It’s the hardest thing in the world. The upper echelon of the group is as good as anybody.”

Boundless connections revealed in ‘Ana England: Kinship’ at Cincinnati Art Museum Discover the awe-inspiring beauty, mystery and interconnectedness of the universe at the Cincinnati Art Museum’s upcoming special exhibition “Ana England: Kinship,” on view Sept. 8 through March 4.

Featuring 25 of England’s large-scale sculptures and installations, this exhibition explores the idea of kinship – a conceptual thread that has run through England’s work from the 1980s to the present. Three new works

by England will be on display for the first time.

England works with a range of materials, yet clay is her principal medium, valued for its sensitivity to touch and its connections to the earth.

Thought-provoking and masterfully crafted, the pieces in Kinship demon-

strate that the connections between us are greater than those separating us.

Amy Dehan, curator of decorative art and design, has organized the exhibition.

“Ana sees the world differently. Her prescient observations are given form in her work and offer new and beautiful insight into the complexity of the natural world and our place in it. She makes connections that are shocking, inspiring, humbling,” Dehan said.

In observing the curl of the galaxy in a fingerprint, or in contemplating that minute solar systems are embedded in our cells, England’s artworks evoke a sense of community that transcends race, nationality and species identification.

England is based in Felicity. For three decades, England led the ceramics program at Northern Kentucky University, where she is now professor Emerita. Her work has been widely published and exhibited nationally.

“Kinship is a tremendous opportunity to communicate my love for the natural world to a diverse audience,” England said.

This exhibition is generously sponsored by Fund Evaluation Group and the Women’s Committee of the Cincinnati Art Museum. It will be on view in The Manuel D. and Rhoda Mayerson Gallery and Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell Gallery (G124 and 125), across from the museum’s Terrace Café. Free admission. Photography is permitted.

Why Haven’t Senior Homeowners Been Told These Facts?

Keep reading if you own a home in the U.S. and were born before 1955.

It’s a well-known fact that for many senior citizens in the U.S. their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their total net worth.

Yet, according to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 6.1 trillion dollars of unused home equity.1 With people now living longer than ever before and home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted.

All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or “HECM” loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement.

However, today, there are still millions of eligible homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret.”

Some homeowners think HECM loans sound “too good to be true.” After all, you get the cash you need out of your home but you have no more monthly mortgage payments.

NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?2 EXTRA CASH? It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan;2 however the homeowners are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees.

Another fact many are not aware of is that HECM reverse mortgages first took hold when President Reagan signed the FHA Reverse Mortgage Bill into law 29 years ago in order to help senior citizens remain in their homes.

Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement.

Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions.

For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard.

FACT: In 1988, President Reagan signed an FHA bill that put HECM loans into law.

That’s a shame because HECM loans are helping many senior homeowners live a better life.

In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 90% of their clients are satisfied with their loans.

While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners like Betty Carter, who recently took out a HECM loan with AAG so that she could finally get the extra cash she needed to fix up her house.

“With the help of AAG, I have been able to repair my home’s foundation that I had been putting off for several years, refinish the hardwood floors, paint the interior and will have the exterior painted within a few days.

My house is starting to look like my home again and it feels good,” says Carter.

The cash from a HECM loan can be used for any purpose. Many people use the money to save on interest charges by paying off credit cards or other highinterest loans. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a “safety net” for financial emergencies.

If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make an informed decision. Homeowners who are interested in learning more can request a f ree 2017 HECM loan Information Kit and f ree Educational DVD by calling American Advisors Group tollf ree at 1-800-397-2933.

At no cost or obligation, the professionals at AAG can help you find out if you qualify and also answer common questions such as: 1. What’s the government’s role?

2. How much money might I get?

3. Who owns the home after I take out a HECM loan?

You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover when you call AAG for more information today.

Source: http://reversemortgagedaily.com/2016/06/21/seniors-home-equity-grows-to-6-trillion-reverse-mortgage-opportunity. 2If you qualify and your loan is approved, a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) must pay off any existing mortgage(s). With a HECM loan, no monthly mortgage payment is required. A HECM increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). AAG works with other lenders and financial institutions that offer HECMs. To process your request for a loan, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of HECM programs that they offer. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. Borrowers must occupy home as their primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan also becomes due and payable when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes or insurance payments, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms.

Small change, big opportunity Treasure can be found in the most unlikely places and, according to the U. S. Treasury, Americans have about $15 billion dollars worth currently hiding in sock drawers, piggybanks, on automobile floorboards and under the sofa cushions.

It is estimated that the average household accumulates $50 worth of change every month. It may seem like a bit of a stretch to think of pocket change as an investment opportunity, but in 20 years at 5 percent interest, that $50 in change would yield more than $20,000.

Saving change at the end of each day or week can contribute to your financial goals. Quarters, dimes, nickels and even pennies can go into personal savings to help

build a college or retirement fund. Or, even be saved to help cover some of Diane the upMason coming school and EXTENSION NOTES holiday expenses.

You may also want to use accumulated coins for short term goals such as an evening out, a weekend getaway or an upgrade for the family’s computer, television or other recreational equipment.

Many supermarkets and banks have machines that encourage people to cash in their coins. Consumers can bring in their jars of coins and empty them into the machine.

The machine counts the

coins and gives the consumer a voucher that can be exchanged for cash or used to pay for groceries.

Another option is to donate the value of your coins to a favorite charity. Some machines will count your coins and automatically deposit the amount with your designated charity. However, be aware of any fees that may be associated with these machines as many will keep a percentage of your total as the fee for counting the money.

So, consider saving your change. It’s a great start to a savings plan or a way to pay for other short-term and intermediate financial goals.

John Toebben, president of Toebben Builders, will open the doors of his new home – literally – in support of the Alzheimer’s cause with “The Tour for a Cure.” Toebben Builders, along with Housetrends, Keller Williams Advisors and the Dwell Well Group, will host an open house tour of Toebben’s new 10,000-square-foot home, located in The Reserve at Rivers Pointe Estate in Hebron Aug. 25-27.

Toebben home tour benefits Alzheimer’s Association When John Toebben’s late mother, Laverne, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2001, the family turned to the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati for guidance and support.

Over the years, Toebben, president of Toebben Builders, has shown his gratitude to the Alzheimer’s Association for that help in various ways. Later this month, he will open the doors of his new home – literally – in support of the Alzheimer’s cause with “The Tour for a Cure.”

Toebben Builders, along with Housetrends, Keller Williams Advisors and the Dwell Well Group, will host an open house tour of Toebben’s new 10,000-square-foot home, located in The Reserve at Rivers Pointe Estate in Hebron Aug. 25-27.

“The Alzheimer’s Association has been very supportive of my family and their program staff has helped us cope with a very difficult situation,” Toebben said. “Our support is a way of thanking the chapter for what they have done for us and to help them help other families facing this disease.”

The three-day open house will feature a tour of the home that features a spectacular covered porch overlooking the Ohio River, custom pool, wine vault, gourmet kitchen and many never before seen products from around the world.

There will be a special VIP event on Friday, Aug. 25, that includes hors d’oeuvres, wine and complimentary valet parking from 5-9 p.m. Admission is $100. The tour continues on Sat-

urday and Sunday from noon to 7 p.m.

Admission those days is $25.

“We are most grateful to the Toebben family for their generous support of our chapter and the work we do,” said Paula Kollstedt, executive director of the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati. “It has been a pleasure working with John on this unique fundraising event.”

The Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati serves 27 counties in Southern Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeastern Indiana where an estimated 50,000 people are affected

by Alzheimer’s disease.

Today, 5.5 million Americans are affected by Alzheimer’s disease, the sixth-leading cause of death and the costliest disease in the United States.

‘Korea: The Forgotten War’ opens at Behringer-Crawford Museum Ken Harper of Crestview Hills, Kentucky, was sitting in economics classic at the University of Kentucky Community College just after Christmas vacation in 1951 when a classmate walked in and said, “I got my draft papers.”

When class was over, Harper walked down the street and joined the Air Force. When he got home that afternoon, his own draft papers were in the mailbox.

Harper was one of thousands of young men of the early ‘50s who went from student to soldier, from Kentucky to Korea, without a lot of planning or preparation. It was the start of the Korean conflict, an era wedged between World War II and the Vietnam War, which came to be known as “the forgotten war” because it received relatively little attention over the years.

In recognition of those who served during this crucial, yet seldom recognized conflict, BehringerCrawford Museum presents a new exhibit, “Korea: The Forgotten War,” documenting the roles veterans from Northern Kentucky and Ohio played and the impact they had on the Korean War. These personal war stories shed new light on one of the most tumultuous and little-known periods in American history.

Two months after he graduated from high school, Jerry McCandles of Campbellsburg, Kentucky, enlisted in the Marines and was immediately sent to Paris Island, then Camp Pendleton for combat training before heading to Korea.

“I was still a naïve kid and it was exciting to think that you were getting to go and fight. It didn’t quite occur to me that they were going to shoot back. I got to go home on leave before I went overseas and it dawned on me…what happens if they shoot back and you get killed? I knew then I’m ready…I’m ready to go overseas. I’m ready to die.”

McCandles survived the war, but 35,000 other Americans did not. Yet,

despite the deaths, injuries, and emotional toll, Americans returning home from Korea were not greeted with cheers and accolades. Instead, they said, it was almost as if their war experiences never happened.

When Ed Kleir of Ludlow, Kentucky, returned from Korea to his job at Coca Cola, it was like he had never left.

“It was no big deal. You came home and you fell back into where you had been. People said, “Hey haven’t seen ya for a while, where ya been?’

Korea. ‘What were ya doing over there?’ And that was the end of the conversation.”

Yet today, more than 60 years later, veterans of the Korean War, their loved ones and many in their communities haven’t forgotten the bloody conflict that lasted three years (1950-1953) and ended without clear resolution. For them, the conversation continues.

As Patrick Ruttle of Crescent Springs, Kentucky, said, “I’m very proud of what I did. It did shape my life. I’d be overdoing it to say the word thrilling, but it was to us so meaningful.

We worked hard at it.”

“Korea: The Forgotten War” features recorded interviews, diaries, photographs and artifacts loaned or donated by local Korean War veterans and their families. Also included in the exhibit is a miniature statue of Thomas Dehne, a Marine from Newport, Kentucky, who was a model for one of the 19 full-size statues in the Korean War Veterans Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The exhibit is on display at BCM,1600 Montague Road, Devou Park, in Covington, through Sunday, Oct. 1. It is open during regular museum hours and is included with museum admission.

A public reception for the exhibit will be at BCM from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 5. All veterans and their spouses will be admitted free; veterans’ families will be halfprice.

NOTICE Please take notice that Duke Energy Kentucky, Inc. has applied to the Kentucky Public Service Commission for approval to revise its Demand Side Management (DSM) rate for gas service and electric service for residential and commercial customers. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers is ($0.013241) per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers is $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers is $0.007967 per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers is $0.002576 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and $0.000183 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service.

Duke Energy Kentucky seeks approval to revise these rates as follows: Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers would remain at ($0.013241) per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers would remain at $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers would remain at $0.007967 per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers would increase to $0.003208 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and would remain at $0.000183 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service.

The rate contained in this notice is the rate proposed by Duke Energy Kentucky. However, the Public Service Commission may order a rate to be charged that differs from this proposed rate. Such action may result in a rate for consumers other than the rate in this notice. The foregoing rates reflect a proposed increase in electric revenues of approximately $1.53 million or 0.48% over current total electric revenues and no change over current gas revenues.

A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see no change. A typical residential electric customer using 1000 kWh in a month will see no change. A typical non-residential electric customer using 40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWh will see an increase of $8.85 or 0.8%. Non-residential gas customers and non-residential electric customers served at transmission voltage will see no change in their bills from this application.

Any corporation, association, body politic or person may by motion within thirty (30) days after publication or mailing of notice of the proposed rate changes, submit a written request to intervene to the Public Service Commission, 211 Sower Boulevard, P.O. Box 615, Frankfort, Kentucky 40602, and shall set forth the grounds for the request including the status and interest of the party. The intervention may be granted beyond the thirty (30) day period for good cause shown. Written comments regarding the proposed rate may be submitted to the Public Service Commission by mail or through the Public Service Commission’s website. A copy of this application filed with the Public Service Commission is available for public inspection at Duke Energy Kentucky’s office at 4580 Olympic Boulevard, Erlanger, Kentucky 41018 and on its website at http://www.duke-energy.com. This filing and any other related documents can be found on the Public Service Commission’s website at http://psc.ky.gov.
