BECAUSE COMMUNITY MATTERS
Residents concerned with traffic around proposed development Forrest Sellers fsellers@communitypress.com
OAKLEY – The status of a controversial Oakley development still remains undetermined. Last fall, the Fortus Group presented a revised development plan for a mixed-use structure at Madison Road and Taylor Avenue. The fivestory building would include retail on the bottom floor and residential units on the upper floors. The plan to develop the site, which was formerly occupied by a Fifth Third Bank branch, was first announced last summer. Residents have objected to the size and density of the proposed structure. During the April Oakley Community Council meeting, Stephen Dronen, a development director with the Fortus Group, detailed some of the changes made to the plan since last meeting with residents. These changes included setting some portions of the building further back from the street to help alleviate aesthetic concerns, architectural modifications to make the building more visually appealing and reducing the height of the building, which in the original plan had been eight stories and more than 100 feet. The current plan is for a

Groundbreaking kicks off last renovation project Anderson High School the last of 4 in the district Forrest Sellers fsellers@communitypress.com
ANDERSON TOWNSHIP – Work on the final school in a districtwide renovation project has begun. A groundbreaking ceremony for Anderson High School was March 27. Anderson is among eight of the schools to be renovated following the success of a November 2014 bond issue. Wilson Elementary School is also being completely rebuilt. Work on Sherwood Elementary, Ayer Elementary and Nagel Middle School has been completed. Mercer, Summit and Wilson elementary schools are expected to be finished before the start of the 2017-2018 school year, and Maddux Elementary and Turpin High School are expected to be finished in 2018. Anderson High School is expected to be completed in 2019. Improvements to Anderson include new science labs, up-
70-foot structure. Dronen said the residential portion of the building will have 82 apartment units. Residents at the April meeting seemed more concerned with the potential traffic impact than the height. Dronen, though, said a traffic study had been performed and that the development plan met city requirements. “This is not a final plan,” he added. A resident in the audience questioned whether it would be acceptable to grant a liquor license to a tenant considering the building’s proximity to St. Cecilia School. Dronen said specific tenants on the lower floor had not yet been determined. Although the parking and traffic impact remained a concern, Oakley Community Council members said any type of development at that location would likely generate additional traffic. “Something is going to go there that causes traffic,” said Sean Fausto, board president of the Oakley Community Council. Board Vice President Dave Schaff said council is currently looking at developing an updated master plan for the area in coming months. “Traffic issues will be looked at as part of this See OAKLEY, Page 2A

graded security and technology, a multipurpose space on the school’s east side, installation of air conditioning which the building did not previously have, improved learning spaces and handicap-accessibility features. This is the culmination of
many years of planning, President of the Board of Education Forest Heis said during the groundbreaking ceremony. “This is the last and one of the biggest (projects) in the district,” Heis said, adding that this will create “transformed learning spaces.”

Greenacres schedules Oyler school benefit for April 26 jhouck@communitypress.com
By just about any measure, it’s a long way between Indian Hill – one of Greater Cincinnati’s most affluent communities – and Lower Price Hill, where many children live in poverty. The Greenacres Foundation of Indian Hill has for years endeavored to bridge the educational divide by hosting “Wine Down Wednesday,” an annual fundraiser benefiting K-12 students at the Oyler Community Learning Center in Lower Price Hill. Tens of thousands of dollars have been raised at Wine Down Wednesdays – this year set for April 26 – to provide Oyler’s students with things such as biology class supplies, incentives for academic accomplishments, mentors, online high school, after-school pro-
grams, field trips to Greenacres for its educational agriculture, environment and arts programs – even clothing and proms. Greenacres presents Wine Down Wednesday, an evening of food, drinks and entertainment, in partnership with the Hatmaker Foundation, a group dedicated to giving Oyler students what they need to reach their academic potentials. In fact, it was members of the Hatmaker Foundation who came up with the idea for Wine Down Wednesday – and its curious name. Here, Meredith Leslie of Newtown, a member of the Hatmaker Foundation Board of Directors, discusses Wine Down Wednesday and explains that it all began with an idea pitched by fellow board member Rick Chouteau of Cleves. How did Wine Down Wednesday get off the

ground – and get its name? Eight years ago when Rick Chouteau had an idea that he wanted to raise more funds for Oyler school, he reached out to (other members of the Hatmaker Foundation Board of Directors) for help. After brainstorming, the team determined their passion for wine coupled with a silent auction and a beautiful venue would make the perfect fundraiser. After reaching out to (president) Carter Randolph of the Greenacres Foundation and partnering with Evelyn Ignatow of Hyde Park Gourmet Food & Wine, they decided to host the event on a Wednesday evening to avoid competition with weekend fundraisers as well as entice more wine distributors and makers to get involved. How many years has Greenacres been hosting Wine Down Wednesday? This will be the eighth year. Every year, the event has been held at Greenacres. Greenacres is a critical partner to the Hatmaker Foundation and Oyler school, and provides the most beautiful setting for the event. Greenacres also hosts Oyler students many times throughout the year for free field trips that align art enrichment activities to school curriculum, helping to expand the students’ knowledge and experiences.

Wine Down Wednesday supports student mentoring.
Hatmaker Foundation’s formal relationship with the school? All of the funds from Wine Down Wednesday directly benefit the students of Oyler school. The Hatmaker Foundation is a 501(c) 3 dedicated to financing initiatives at Oyler outside of government funding, including attendance and mentoring programs. How was the Oyler Community Learning Center chosen to be the beneficiary of money raised at Wine Down Wednesday? Oyler school was one of the most challenged schools in the Cincinnati Public Schools system.
(Hatmaker Foundation Board of Directors members) John Sherman of Delhi Township, Dave Montgomery of Blue Ash and Rick Chouteau, along with the school administration, understood the need to improve the educational experience of the students. To do that, additional programs were created to further educate, engage and support the student body outside of standard classroom activities. But additional funding was needed. The Hatmaker Foundation was formed to manage and distribute any collected funds aimed at those programs.
Wine Down Wednesday, with the support of Greenacres and Oyler supporters, quickly became the significant annual funding mechanism and event that was so desperately needed to provide necessary funds for the additional programs. All of the funding received by Hatmaker goes to the students; there are no paid employees and minimal operational costs for the foundation. How much money does Wine Down Wednesday raise? We raised $20,000 our first year and have had steady growth. In 2016, we raised over $40,000. What is planned for this year’s Wine Down Wednesday? This year we will have live music from Wilder. This band has been a part of our event the last three years and is a favorite of our guests. The lead singer, Kelly Thomas, is on staff at Oyler school and this connection brings a special element. For food, Funky’s Catering is returning for their eighth year with a new and innovative menu. They’ll serve dinner by the bite in a buffet setting, with creative dishes that will spark your taste buds. Wine Down Wednesday will be held April 26 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Greenacres Arts Center at 8400 Blome Road in Indian Hill. Visit www.green-acres.org for tickets.

SCHOOLS NOTEBOOK Anderson High School » Andrew Lloyd Weber’s iconic musical about a tribe of cats has been wowing audiences of all ages since it debuted in London and on Broadway in the early 1980s. Its mix of technical and performance challenges make it an unusual show for a High School to attempt, but the Directors and students of Anderson High School are thrilled to present it as their final performance this season. Performances of “Cats” will take place at Anderson High School, 7560 Forest Road, April 27, 28 and 29 at 7 p.m. and April 29 and 30 at 2 p.m. All tickets are $10 and purchasing information can be found at www.AndersonTheatre.com. “We chose this piece knowing that it would showcase the incredible skills of our students,” costume/hair/make-up mentor Emily Weddle said. “I am especially excited about the Make-up designs our student leaders have created. Seeing all the student Designers exploring and creating is a wonderful part of the entire process.” Senior Malerie Jump began designing the set for “Cats” in the fall. She is one of the first students chosen to design a set for a main stage production.

“Working with the constraints of Titus was pretty difficult, but also fun,” she says. “The very simple structure of the show gives me a lot of freedom to make crazy choices that I wouldn't be able to justify in any other show, like slides and surprise trampolines. I loved

Audience members will be awed by the ‘Jellicle Ball’ at the end of Act I, and the partnered cartwheels in ‘Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer’ are not to be missed!” This is Senior Gretchen Baxter’s final show. She is a dancer who plays Victoria. “I created the theatre dance core my freshman year with Mr. Weddle,” she said. “Now to be ending with an entire show of dancing is absolutely wonderful! I couldn't be more proud of the cast, some with little dance experience, working so incredibly hard. It brings joy to me to see our little cat family enjoy dancing and loving and caring about what we do.”

» The Good Shepherd Catholic Montessori celebrated its Oratory Festival Finale. Six GSCM students delivered their speeches, the student body sang patriotic songs, and the assembly welcomed Bill Burleigh, former CEO of Scripps Media, as the guest speaker and master of ceremonies. Students throughout the school wrote and delivered speeches and six were selected by their
teachers to speak at the Festival Finale. The speeches at the Finale ranged from biographical topics on Sacagawea and Philo T. Farnsworth to reflections on rioting. Burleigh spoke to the students about the power of speeches and remarked on two memorable speeches from Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, and on the famous words that Neil Armstrong spoke as he stepped on the moon. » The Good Shepherd Catholic Montessori hosted its biggest fundraising event of the school year March 11 at RSVP in Loveland with a gathering of 150 parents, grandparents and school supporters. It was a fun evening of music, good food and drink, wonderful silent auction items and a live auction led by WCPO meteorologist Steve Raleigh. Proceeds of the auction benefit the education of all the students at the school and the funds raised in the appeal will go toward staff development. » The Good Shepherd Catholic Montessori has hired Anne Marie Vega as the school’s new principal starting in July. Vega, a native of Canton, has a combination of experiencVega es, qualifications and qualities that uniquely suit her to serving as the next leader of the school. She completed both Montessori pre-primary and elementary training; she taught elementary school for 11 years; she is a fullytrained and experienced catechist in Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, and
she has administrative experience as director of religious education. Vega holds a master of arts in education and is completing her master of arts in pastoral studies with a concentration in the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (Aquinas Institute of Theology, St. Louis). With Vega’s arrival, Dan Teller, the school’s founder and principal, will assume the role of executive director.
Great Oaks » Health care students from the four Great Oaks campuses and four Great Oaks satellite programs at area schools showed their skills and knowledge in regional HOSA – Future Healthcare Professionals competition in February. The Great Oaks students came from a variety of healthcare majors, including dental assisting, exercise science, health technology, secondary practical nursing, and surgical technology, as well as the biomedical sciences satellite programs at area schools. The competition events were either individual or team activities; they typically included a 50-100 question test of specific knowledge. Some events required students to demonstrate their health care knowledge and skills in a mock scenario. Local state competition qualifiers from Great Oaks include: From Live Oaks Career Campus - Katelynn Barth, Amelia and Ashley Lang, Mariemont, CPR/ First Aid; Christy Brichant, Anderson, medical spelling; Claudia Cieslar, Anderson. The students qualify to participate in state competition in Toledo in April.

Springer School » The March visit of artist and decorative painter Jeannine Dostal marked the 25th anniversary of the Maureen Wenker Artist-in-Residence program at Springer School and Center. Having struggled in school herself, Dostal made an instant connection with Springer’s students, all of whom have learning disabilities. Eighth-graders Hunter Jones and Mary Catherine Conaway felt a sense of freedom to create. “I didn’t feel pressured by Jeannine,” Jones said, “but I pressured myself to do my best.” Conaway added, “This was a way to express my difference.”
After a 25-year career as a decorative painter, Dostal now paints mostly on canvas, working wet in multiple layers, embellishing with sequins, glitter and gold leaf, and sealing her work with a coating of resin. During her two-week residency, Dostal brought her unique style, which she calls “The Art of Allowing,” to each of Springer’s art classes, and then spent a week working closely with a group of 22 Middle School students, each of whom created an individual canvas and participated in two collaborative paintings. “Being Springer’s artist-in-residence was truly an honor for me,” Dostal said, “especially it being the 25th year. I knew the experience would be a good one, but I had no idea the magnitude of emotions and attachment to the students I would experience, or that it would be so inspiring for me too. The Springer staff and
kids have touched my heart, and I will never forget the memories we made together, as well as the magnificent "Art of Allowing" paintings."

Anderson Trustees OK electric aggregation program Anderson Township Trustees have approved a rate contract designating Dynegy Energy Services to become the provider in the township’s new electric aggregation program. At the April 6 Board of Township Trustees meeting, Anderson’s trustees accepted a fixed rate for services in the program, which was approved by voters in the November 2016 election. Rates approved are $0.0539 per kilowatt hour, or $0.0549 per kilowatt hour for renewable energy. These rates will begin with the June meter read and continue for three years, ending in June 2020. Opt-out notices for eligible customers are expected to be mailed April 18. Residents have 21 days to respond to the notice, plus a seven-day rescission period, according to Mark Magna, facilities manager with Anderson Township. Anderson Township does not receive any financial benefit through this program. “This is proving to be exactly what we hoped for; an opportunity for residents to save money,” Trustee President Josh Gerth said.

Cincinnati engineer Brandon Lecrone, a project manager for the Marburg Avenue bridge replacement, said the project which began in March is on schedule. At this stage demolition of the existing bridge is two-thirds complete, Lecrone said during the April 4 Oakley Community Council meeting. Installation of beams to provide temporary “shoring” of Wasson Road has also been implemented, he said. This will be followed by construction of the bridge foundations. Lecrone said the Cincinnati Department of Transportation and Engineering has continued to monitor traffic patterns in the area. Some adjustments have been made to reduce some of the delays caused by the bridge closure. This includes adjustments to the traffic signals at Paxton and Erie av-
enues and at Marburg and Erie avenues to help improve traffic flow. The project is expected to be completed by Oct. 31, but Lecrone said the bridge could potentially open sooner if work continues at the current pace.
Man accused of slapping female Uber driver A Hyde Park man was arrested April 9 after police said he slapped a female Uber driver’s face and nearly caused multiple accidents. Hunter Megowen, 28, was charged with disorderly conduct, according to court documents. Cincinnati police said the female Uber driver flagged down officers to report Megowen had mugged her when she offered him a ride home. After police told Megowen to stop behaving in a disorderly fashion, he began walking down Linwood Avenue and attempted to stop cars, according to court documents. Megowen was heavily intoxicated at the time of the incident, police said. Megowen appeared in court April 10. He was released from the Hamilton County Justice Center on a $500 bond.
MOUNT LOOKOUT
Brinkman introduces Student and Teacher Liberty Act State Reps. Ron Hood (R-Ashville) and Tom Brinkman (R-Mount Look-
out) introduced House Bill 181 - the “Student and Teacher Liberty Act” - that aims torestore and improve Ohio’s education system. House Bill 181 would eliminate Common Core State Standards in Ohio and the associated tests, as well as prohibit state required end-of-course examinations. The Ohio Teacher Evaluation System and Ohio Principal Evaluation System would also be eliminated, giving each school district the ability to create its own evaluations for teachers and principals. “The bill was designed to liberate teachers and students from an unproven and excessively scriptedsystem of testing and evaluations,” Brinkman said. “Common Core and its affiliated tests forced teachers to teach to the test, taking creativity and learning out of the classroom.” Both representatives have been hearing from disgruntled parents and frustrated teachers. Several bills have been introduced over the last few years that address some of the problem, but Hood and Brinkman said this was the first comprehensive bill that tackles all the major issues while still allowing Ohio to keep federal education dollars. “The Student Teacher Liberty Act goes back to what we know works, letting teachers teach, sostudents can enjoy learning again,” Brinkman added. “This is a win for everyone: parents,students, teachers, local school boards and taxpayers.”

The most delicious curried chicken salad I’ve ever tasted I should have ordered a pound of curried chicken salad from Bluebird Bakery in Glendale instead of the half pound I walked out with. The reason? When I arrived home, I just had to taste. One taste led to another, and that’s why the mound of this yummy chicken salad in the photo looks, well, a tad small. I had gotten a couple requests Rita for the recipe, Heikenfeld the latest of which was from RITA’S KITCHEN Linda B., a Boone County Recorder reader. “Could you possibly get the recipe for curried chicken salad that the Bluebird Bakery Cafe in Glendale makes? It is the most delicious curried chicken salad recipe I’ve ever tasted,” she said. Jenny Dennis, proprietor and chef has a good thing going at her bakery. You can tell she and her staff love what they do by the way the food is served and the kind of food they make. From sweet pastries to teas to savory entrees, Bluebird Bakery is one of those places you just feel well fed and nurtured. Jenny grew up in Sharonville.

Steamed asparagus with herbed butter sauce My asparagus is not up yet, and I have a sneaky suspicion it’s because I overdid on the horse manure mulch a couple weeks back. I guess the asparagus is still trying to poke through. But when it does, I’m going to steam it like I used to. Now I like to cut off the tough ends, but the trend now is to peel the lower part of the asparagus, as well. (I’m not that much of a purist, though!). Ingredients 1-1/2 pounds medium to large asparagus 1/3 cup butter salt and pepper zest and juice of 1 lemon 1 tablespoon chives palmful chopped parsley chopped tarragon to taste, plus more for garnish

Turn heat to high and simmer briskly until most of the liquid has evaporated, a minute or so. Add lemon juice and zest. Turn off heat and stir in chives, parsley, and tarragon. Adjust seasonings. Spoon sauce over asparagus, garnish with a bit of tarragon and serve. Adapted from NYT cooking. Asparagus is good for you!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Clean out your medicine cabinet The Anderson Township Citizen’s Committee on Heroin hosted a screening of “Chasing the Dragon: The Life of an Opiate Addict” at the Anderson Center. Produced by the FBI, “Chasing the Dragon” shows the extent to which opioid and heroin addicts will go to get their next fix. All of those interviewed talked about how they wanted to quit, but could not. Those that were in prison said that they would never do it again, but shortly after being released, they were right back at it. This is the powerfulness of addiction. “Chasing the Dragon” is available for viewing online and I would highly recommend anyone that is interested in this issue to watch it. My first com-
ment after seeing it was that “our kids need to see this.” I was encouraged to learn that it is being shown to all Forest Hills School District ninth graders. Many of the addicts featured in the film started by taking painkillers that were in their home medicine cabinets. Cleaning out our medicine cabinets is one small step that we can all take to perhaps save a child or adult from going down a path to destruction. Now is the perfect time.

Do one thing now for Earth Day The year 2020 is quickly approaching and with it, the 50 anniversary of Earth Day. At Green Umbrella, we’re working hard to make Greater Cincinnati a top 10 metro area for sustainability before then. We’re already making progress. Our region has more than 101,000 acres of protected greenspace to date; we’ve seen a 55 percent increase in farmers markets in just the last three years; and there is now $191 million in slated funding for walkable and bike-friendly communities. The national recognition has also begun. Greater Cincinnati has ranked in the top 10 for our parks, trees, bike commuting, local food, and for our commitment to sustainability. This makes our region a great place for businesses to locate, and for people seeking an active outdoor lifestyle and a vibrant metro area. Green Umbrella’s Action Teams have 2020 goals for key areas of impact including: greenspace, outdoor recreation, local food, energy, waste reduction, transportation and water. Instead of resting when we exceeded two of our goals early, we set new ones. With Earth Day drawing near, it’s a great time to be part of our region’s sustainability goals by doing one or more of these things: 1. Eat local: Support farmers, improve your health and our local economy by shifting 10 percent of your food budget to locally grown food. Find your local farmers market or sign up for a CSA. 2. Save the food: 40 percent of food (about $1,500 per household) is wasted each year. Shop with a plan, and store to save food so it doesn’t go to the landfill. 3. Drive less, live more: Download a free transit app to
buy fares and plan your route. Bike or walk, especially for destinations within two miles. 4. End litterKristin ing: 18 percent Weiss of litter ends up COMMUNITY PRESS in streams and GUEST COLUMNIST waterways as pollution. Put trash in its place, and help pick up litter. 5. Recycle: Paper and cardboard are still the largest part of our waste stream but yet are easily recycled. Reduce, reuse, recycle! 6. Re-think energy: Switch up traditional light bulbs for LED – they use 90 percent less energy and last 15 years longer. Or Solarize - the cost of solar installation has gone down dramatically, and there are rebates and tax credits to help you go solar. 7. #OptOutside: Get outdoors and submit your favorite green place to help us promote the value of greenspace and connecting with the wonders of nature. 8. Plant natives: Native plants require less water and maintenance to grow. Plant a native tree and join our region’s effort to plant 2 million trees by 2020. 9. Plan to attend: Learn how we can build a more sustainable and equitable region at the June 9 Midwest Regional Sustainability Summit. 10.

The importance of community input As an educator for more than 20 years, I know that great schools involve their residents in the decisions and happenings of the school district. From advisory councils to senior citizen’s groups and even a facility taskforce, it is imperative that residents understand the ongoing issues impacting their schools. This is how both the community and school district grow stronger. For example, Mariemont City Schools is looking at possible solutions to significant problems with our high school facility. The school structure is presenting us with many challenges as it ages and regardless of which solution the district chooses to address these challenges, more money will be needed to address the structural, mechanical and academic issues in the current space. The district has done a significant amount of research; we’ve engaged experts in architecture as well as mechanical and security
systems. We are exploring options that range from basic mechanical updates all the way up to Steven a full buildEstepp ing replacement. Yet we COMMUNITY PRESS GUEST are also enCOLUMNIST gaging our community. It is important that we understand their voice in this process. As an educational leader, I know that schools are the heart of many communities. Beyond the tax dollars paid to schools, residents take pride in their schools. From Friday night football games, to choir concerts, theater performances and art shows, the public is an integral part of the school community. Also, research shows that schools are a driving force in maintaining strong property values and are a high priority for families moving to a new community. The only way to ensure that resi-
dents understand what is happening in their school district is for the school leaders to engage directly with the public. Newsletters, social media posts, websites, blogs, podcasts, community chats, online discussions and just having a conversation with members of the community are all great examples of how schools reach out to local residents. Regardless of which options your school district uses, the important thing is to make sure you are getting the information you need to be up to date about what is going on in your schools. As for Mariemont City School's high school facility project, we continue to seek community input through design workshops and online surveys. If you are interested in learning more about this process or sharing your opinion regarding the proposed solutions, be sure to visit the school district website, www.mariemontschools.org. Steven Estepp is superintendent of Mariemont City Schools.

C.S.
“It is a shame that Riverfront Coliseum could not have been secured for both the UC men’s and women’s 2017-2018 basketball season games. Xavier’s Cintas Center would have been a nice second choice, but there were not enough open dates and of course the Cincinnati Gardens is gone. St. Ursula Academy gym can accommodate the typical crowd that attends the women’s games. This is only for one year so I suspect this will all work out. However I hope they fill that gym and there is need to secure a larger facility. Go figure!” T.D.T.
April 5 question What can be done to prevent, or make less likely, incidents like the mass shooting at Cameo Club in Cincinnati last month?
“This is a very good question with very hard or impossible answers. Ban guns? Nope,
won’t work because the evil-doers will still have them. “Close places like bars and clubs because they attract and foment evil-doers? Nope, won’t work because that kind of business hampering is just not done in America, nor should it be. “Longer prison sentences? Nope, with the overcrowding in and cost of running our prisons, sentences are shortened rather then lengthened. “For cases where the evil-doer(s) are witnessed on camera or by law enforcement firsthand and where there is a 100 percent certainty of guilt, execution in a very short time frame (enough with this 20-30 years on death row) is a possible partial solution. Did they absolutely do the crime? Plug ‘em in.” M.J.F.

TONY TRIBBLE/FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS
Turpin’s Grant Wendel made it to the Division I state tournament for the Spartans last season.
Turpin aims for top of ECC tennis Adam Baum and Scott Springer Community Press staff
ANDERSON TWP. - Riding the wave of three consecutive Eastern Cincinnati Conference tennis championships, Turpin High School looks strong again in 2017. The Spartans return four starters which should provide for an experienced and talented lineup from top to bottom. Led by junior Grant Wendel, a state singles qualifier last year and district doubles finalist his freshman year, the Spartans will have a hammer at first singles again this year. Wendel was the ECC player of the year last season for coach of the year Kate Rodgers. Also returning to starting positions, senior Will Muscatello, junior Ethan Caruso, and senior Michael Borger. Caruso, a district singles qualifier last year, will assume second singles this season. Muscatello, an ECC champ and district qualifier last season at first doubles, is competing for third singles this season. “I like our leadership, experience and talent at the top of our lineup,” said Rodgers. “All three singles are returning upperclassmen with years of varsity experience and success under their belts. In addition to a strong singles lineup, we have a varsity returner and a few much-improved sophomores/juniors to fill those doubles team
spots.” Turpin hosts Walnut Hills on April 26, travels to Loveland on April 28, and shots Indian Hill on May 1. The ECC championships are May 2.
Anderson Coach: Darin Hausberger, 17th season Division: I Record last year: 6-10, 3-3 ECC Key players: Will Sultan, Noah Loepke, Ryan Hugenberg, Alex Rothfuss Outlook: Just a junior, Sultan will handle the ultra-competitive first singles spot for the third straight season. Hausberger said Sultan should contend for an ECC title and sectional seed. Anderson’s doubles team of Loepke and Hugenberg finished ECC runner-up last season, so the duo has high hopes for taking the title this year. Hausberger said, “Although we lost Jonathan Helmers from last year’s squad (he’s playing at Hanover College this year), we return both first singles and first doubles from last year.” Sam Ray and Max Hoffman also return as second doubles partners after taking last season off. Games to watch: April 19 vs. Milford; April 20 at Walnut Hills; April 25 vs. Kings
Cincinnati Country Day Coach: Matt Dektas, sixth season Division: II
Key players: Sr. Kevin Yu, Sr. Vishaal Nalagatla, So. Manav Nidha, So. Herschel Albert, Sr. Justin Baker, Fr. Ash Annapantula, Fr. Neil Badlani Outlook: Winning its fourth consecutive Ohio Tennis Coaches Association Division II state team title won’t be easy, but CCD has proven always capable. Yu won the state singles title last season and Nalagatla was part of the doubles title. Although Shashank Reddy, one of CCD’s top players last season, transferred to Mason this season, the Indians still have a lineup that could bring home the title. Doubles partners Nidha and Albert were district qualifiers last season, and the addition of youngsters Badlani and Annapantula give CCD some depth across the court. Dektas said, “We’ve got big goals. We have a lot of work to do. Wherever we are in March, we need to be in a better place in May.” The area talent in Division II is tough again this season, Dektas pointed out that Indian Hill and Seven Hills are both strong. Games to watch: April 25 vs. Indian Hill; May 1 at Mason; May 2 at Seven Hills; May 3 vs. St. Xavier

MOUNT WASHINGTON On Monday morning April 10, McNicholas High School baseball coach John Christmann was concerned over losing a couple one-run games and trying to cope with the growing pains of a young team. By Monday evening he was smiling like most of the Rocket faithful as senior Zach Arnold befuddled the bats of Purcell Marian in a five-inning perfect game with McNicholas rolling 11-0. Such is baseball, where short memories can lead to big moments. “I went with a two-seam because Purcell was really late on my fastball,” Arnold said. “I stuck with fastballs a lot and mixed in a few curveballs. I had 10 strikeouts of the 15 batters I faced and think I had two counts where I had three balls. I think I threw under 50 pitches.” The lefty with the trendy “flow” baseball hair recalls a ground ball to third base, a dink to shortstop and a pop fly to the outfield. Other than that he was mowing down the Cavaliers like a John Deere tractor. He’s interested in pitching in college and posting zeroes on the scoreboard could enhance his chances. “I’ve had a few offers but I’ve not committed anywhere,” Arnold said. “If I don’t commit anywhere, I going to try to walk on at OU (Ohio University).” Arnold also helped his cause with a couple of knocks and typically plays first base for the Rockets when not pitching. He’s one of the leaders of a youthful team that lost several key starters last season. “Let’s face it, we had an awesome team the last two years,” Christmann said. “I only have one returning starter. (Ryan) Byrne, (Sam) Browning, (Adam) Hisch and (Will) Vogelgesang, I had those guys when they were sophomores.” Five players from last year’s McNicholas team are on college rosters. The Rockets also led the city in extrabase hits last season. Christmann won’t call this spring a rebuilding year because there’s a long way to go. However, he’s been around enough to know that even an 11-0 perfect game must be filed quickly in the memory banks to be able to compete consistently all season.
SCOTT SPRINGER/ENQUIRER
McNicholas senior lefty Zach Arnold delivers against Lebanon April 1. On April 10 against Purcell Marian, Arnold threw a perfect game.
“We’ll beat some teams we shouldn’t and will probably lose to some teams we probably shouldn’t,” Christmann said. “I try not to get too frustrated, I get frustrated at the missed opportunities.” Arnold’s five-inning gem was certainly a key opportunity as Purcell Marian is in the Greater Catholic LeagueCoed Division with the Rockets. It looks like McNicholas will chase Badin in the league with both teams around .500 at presstime. McNicholas plays Badin back-to-back on April 24-26. They also own a noteworthy non-league win with a 3-1 triumph at Covington Catholic. In addition to Arnold’s accolades, senior Brian Ford has been a jack-of-all-trades with McNicholas. He has played first, third, designated hitter and has pitched. He has been one of the team’s top hitters among regulars along with senior shortstop Michael Lang. “He has kept up in the game with his pitching, defense, and hitting,” Christmann said of Ford. “Lang was my starting third baseman last year and switched over to short. He’s basically taken off where Will Vogelgesang left off. I kind of expected him to do that.” Replacing Ryan Byrne behind the plate is former infielder Jackson Haas. “He bought all into it and worked his tail off all summer,” Christmann said. “He’s learning. His arm and baseball knowledge and leadership have helped him. I think next year as a senior, he’ll be one of the best players in the GCL.” Ahead on the menu for McNicholas are King of the Hill games with Anderson and Turpin April 29 at Midland. They also close out conference play with Roger Bacon May 3-5.
Mariemont baseball hopes beach trip pays off Scott Springer sspringer@enquirer.com
MARIEMONT - Not only is baseball season seemingly the shortest of the high school campaigns, it also is the only one featuring a break early in the schedule. Sometimes, it occurs before play has even started. Spring break is either an institution where entire communities converge on Destin or Hilton Head or a week of baseball for those taking their chances on a semi-mild Ohio day in March or April. Joe Regruth at Mariemont
High School has found a happy medium. Rather than starting behind the proverbial eight-ball when other teams have played, the Warriors have made “business trips” to the Cal Ripken Jr. facility. Offsetting the business is the family entertainment factor of it being located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. “This is the fourth time we’ve done that,” Regruth said. “We have had great weather every time and it’s an awesome opportunity for our team to get together and just think baseball nonstop and travel and bond together. The kids love it, the parents
love it and the coaching staff feels like we get a lot out of it.” The Mariemont varsity team played four games and the junior varsity played three. Regruth doesn’t monopolize the break by taking the first three or four days for baseball before leaving the families on their own for the remainder. The Ripken staff sets up the games and tries to match up teams of similar size against one another. “In four years, we’ve only had two bad games,” Regruth said of the competition. “The rest of been really good games, comparable to CHL (Cincinnati
Hills League) games. It’s nice to be outside in the sunshine. The facilities are A-plus No. 1. It’s all turf, so you know you’re going to play unless it’s raining at the time.” The umpires are often pro or college caliber and each game has an announcer and music between innings, much like the Skyline Chili Reds Showcase games here. Regruth’s mission now is to take the lessons learned in South Carolina to the CHL fields often dominated by the likes of Madeira, Indian Hill and Taylor. This year, Taylor appears to be the
front-runner. “Just because your No. 1 guy isn’t pitching doesn’t mean it’s not going to be a difficult game,” Regruth said. “The kids all know each other. The competition level is very high. You can’t fall asleep on any other guys.” Leading the Warriors on the mound is senior Hayden Seeger who has been on varsity since his freshman year. Third baseman Henry Lewis and shortstop Brad Westmeyer have been mainstays. They also feature a senior catcher in Henry Wagner who will play next year at Georgetown College.

Pro scouts visit CCD star Ronnie Allen Adam Baum abaum@enquirer.com
INDIAN HILL - Since the game began, baseball has always put a premium on solid defense behind the plate. Even more so, when that catcher can hit. Cincinnati Country Day School senior catcher Ronnie Allen fits the bill. So much so, in fact, that the 6-foot-3, 225pound switch-hitting plate protector has attracted some professional attention this season. According to CCD’s athletic department, there have been a number of Major League Baseball scouts at games this season to watch Allen, who’s signed with Wabash Valley College. Allen, a four-year starter at catcher for the Indians, is off to a blistering start in 2017. Through 15 games – a 12-3 CCD start – Allen’s hitting .651 with five home runs, 28 RBI, and 16 walks against only one strikeout. Cincinnati Country Day head coach Tim Dunn said of Allen, “He hits for power and average from both sides of the plate. He’s hit a home run in the same game from the right side and the left side. Behind the plate, he’s very quick with the ball. If our pitchers give him a chance it’s really difficult to steal on him.” Allen, who’s been

playing baseball since he was 4 years old, said he’s always prided himself on being a solid defensive catcher. “This year, my assistant coach, Asif Shah, kind of took me in under his wing throughout the winter, telling me, I’m 6-3, 225, I need to start hitting like it,” said Allen, who’s hit safely in every game this season. “Past couple years, I might have only 1-2 home runs and this year I’ve got (five) already.” As for the pro scouts watching him, Allen can’t help thinking about it, but he also understands it’s beyond his control. “As much as people say, ‘I don’t worry about it,’ of course it’s always in your mind,” Allen said. “I’ve had 12 pro teams contact me and every game there’s somebody there. I try not to think about it, but obviously, you’re thinking about it.
“I can’t do anything about it now. Every time I step on the field I just want to do my best and win every single game.” The Indians have been able to win, largely because the entire roster has produced. Another powerful paddle rowing the CCD ship is senior shortstop Cam Davis, who like Allen, is posting some ridiculous numbers, hitting .585 with 29 stolen bases. “Cam Davis, he’s off to a great start,” said Dunn. “He’s more of a speed, doubles type hitter. Been great at shortstop. Both (Davis and Allen) pitch, but they’re just athletes who pitch; they’re not really pitchers. Ronnie threw a nohitter and Cam’s been very effective. We don’t have anyone whose first position is pitcher.” Allen added, “Not one pitcher.” CCD’s pitching rotation plays a little like musical chairs in the way they’re required to move fielders around. The Indians just got a boost with eligibility beginning in the second half of the season with two transfer players, which will add arms to the rotation, providing some much-needed depth. “We’ve been thrown absolute chaos,” said Allen. "Kids that haven’t pitched are pitching. Everything’s just been thrown at us and we’ve handled it well.”

A check in the mail could be too good to be true For years fake prize schemes tricked people into thinking they won a a lot of money – but would require them to first send their money before they could to collect their prize. That scheme soon progressed to one in which con artists actually sent out checks Howard to unsusAin pecting consumHEY HOWARD! ers. That’s what happened to Melodie, of Greater Cincinnati. Melodie wrote, “I while back I got an email offering me a job. It was a tourist company out of California. I completed the ‘assignment’ which was a short description of downtown Lawrenceburg. I then got an email asking for an account for payment to be deposited.” Melodie was not comfortable giving out her bank account information so the “employer” emailed her that she was going to be receiving a check. The “employer” wrote, “Your next assignment is that you will be carrying out an assignment to settle some tourist. Once you receive the check, deposit it and remove $500 for your first week wage. Your next payment will be mailed out once you complete your 2nd assignment.” The email concluded, “Please acknowledge the receipt of this email and instruction for your second assignment will be sent. Thanks, Charlie.” Melodie says when she got home she found a
check in the mail and wrote me, “I’m not sure about cashing it. I need help please.” The check was from American Title Co., Houston, and it said the money, $2,350, came from an escrow account. Clearly, that has nothing to do with her job working for a California tourist company– which is why she was unsure about cashing it. She was right not to sign the back and deposit it into her bank account because then she would be guaranteeing that the check is good – when, in fact, it is probably fake. Such fake check scams are more and more common these days. The Federal Trade Commission has identified several varieties of fraudulent and deceptive schemes affecting consumers, particularly older Americans, including, (1) sweepstakes, prize promotions and lotteries, (2) timeshare sales and resales, (3) health care products and services, (4) investments, business opportunities and workfrom-home programs, (5) technical support services, and (6) charitable donations. Bottom line, beware of checks sent from strangers who want you to deposit the check and then send them your good money. Often your bank won’t know for several days that the stranger’s check is no good – but by then you’ve already sent the scammer your good money.

Medical student to host second annual fundraiser for Alzheimer’s Association Fueled by a passion for caring for older adults, University of Cincinnati medical student Christian Gausvik started working with older adults at an assisted living facility at age 15. He was captivated by their stories and personalities and ever since then has wanted to dedicate his life to taking care of this segment of our population here in Cincinnati. A big part of that is confronting the tragedy of Alzheimer’s disease.
As a future geriatrician and with lots of community support, in 2016 Christian launched Mimosas for Memories, a local brunch time event at the Greenwich House Gallery in historic O’Bryonville benefiting the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati. In its inaugural year the event raised $7,000 with more than 160 people in attendance. The event returns for the second annual year Saturday, April 22.
Speaking about his passion for geriatrics, Gausvik notes that “though it can be a complex population segment to care for, the potential to make huge quality of life improvements for these patients makes geriatrics the only career I could ever imagine doing.” The event includes light bites from more than eight local caterers/resturants, a full mimosa bar, photo booth, live piano music and a raffle. New for 2017 the event fea-
tures an expanded silent auction featuring Pappy Van Winkle 20-year Bourbon. It’s all scheduled to take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 22, at the Greenwich House Gallery. The gallery will donate 10 percent of art sales from the day towards the fundraising efforts. Tickets include all the food, mimosas, music and the photo booth. Prices are $26 each or $45 per couple in advance online. $35 at the door for single tickets

Literacy Network hosts 26th annual spelling bee for literacy The Literacy Network of Greater Cincinnati hosts its 26th annual Spelling Bee Thursday, April 27, at the Holy Grail Banks. Join the Literacy Network for spelling, raffles, fun and celebrating literacy by sponsoring a team or cheering on the competition. The “Bee”-105 Morning Team with Big Dave, Chelsie and Statt will emcee the event. Teams of three from local businesses, organizations or groups of friends are invited to compete for the title of Cincinnati’s best spellers. Each team is given a
word with one minute to work together and spell it correctly. Prizes are awarded to first place and runner-up teams as well as the most spirited team. “The Spelling Bee is a fantastic way to help those in our community who struggle with basic reading. With thousands of adults and children in Cincinnati fighting to overcome illiteracy, events like this make our much-needed programs possible,” said Michelle Otten Guenther, president of the Literacy Network. New this year is the In-
ternal Spelling Bee. An Internal Spelling Bee packet including practice words and spelling study tips is sent to companies and organizations. Members compete to determine the three spellers who will represent their organization in the Bee. Team sponsorships are still available. Corporate team sponsorships include logo recognition and tickets. A $20 happy hour admission is offered to all fans and includes two drink tickets. If interested in sponsoring a team, visit www.LNGC.org or call 513.621.7323.

Anderson Township resident Maryann Ziemer presented a watercolor painting of two kittens, which has been hanging on her wall since 1952, to Pauline Archambault, a representative from Cowan’s Roadshow. In early December, The Barn in Mariemont hosted its first Antique Art Roadshow at which local residents brought in about 50 antique art pieces for evaluation.

Szmyd painted mostly snow scenes, so Zeimer was curious to see if he had completed any other animal portraits.

He also helped to create a unique strategic compensation plan which aligns performance with compensation for Great Oaks staff. Giuffre was honored at the SWOSBA Spring Conference.
