Green Diamond Gallery to host public open house ENQUIRER SPORTS

Some Mount Lookout residents are concerned about a housing development proposed for Linwood Avenue. FILE PHOTO

Housing project may be fi rst test of new regs

Green Diamond Gallery, a private club for baseball fans in Montgomery, is hosting a public open house on Saturday, March 23, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The gallery houses one of the most impressive collections of baseball memorabilia and history outside of Cooperstown, and is usually closed to the public.

Tickets for the event are $20 per person and can be purchased at the door.

All proceeds benefi t the Character & Courage Foundation.

The Character & Courage Foundation is Green Diamond Gallery’s charitable arm, which endeavors to enrich, through baseball, the lives of youth who are physically handicapped, diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses, or living in impoverished areas.

A proposed housing development on the Mount Lookout/Linwood border raising concerns among some neighbors may be the fi rst test of Cincinnati’s new subdivision rules.

Redstone MTL, LLC has submitted a draft plan to the Cincinnati planning department that calls for tearing down six houses on Linwood Avenue and using the deep lots and vacant residential property on a wooded hillside behind them to build 18 townhomes and 12 houses.

Once Redstone submits a subdivision application to Cincinnati’s planning commission, it will kick off a process that went into eff ect at the start of this year and that allows for more neighborhood input and planning commission scrutiny.

The new regulations were prompted by concerns that too many historic homes in Mount Lookout and Hyde Park were being demolished and their lots divided for multiple new homes but apply throughout Cincinnati.

The Mt. Lookout and Linwood community councils are working together to get more information about Redstone’s proposal to the neighborhoods and to bring the neighborhoods’ concerns to Redstone, Dan Prevost, president of the Mt. Lookout Community Council, said.

The councils recently sponsored two meetings that brought a total of some 200 people face-to-face with Paul Schirmer, a representative of Redstone whom The Enquirer could not reach for comment.

Redstone wants to build the townhomes on Linwood Avenue and the houses behind the townhomes on a 4.65-acre site it would create in an area bordered by 3530 Linwood Ave. to 3548 Linwood Ave., Sheffi eld Avenue, Beverly Hill Drive and Richwood Avenue.

The Linwood Avenue addresses include a vacant residential lot measuring nearly half an acre, fi ve houses built in 1924 and one house built in 1928,

Man in formal wear robs bank in Sycamore Township, authorities say

Hamilton County auditor records show.

Redstone already owns the vacant lot and three of the houses.

“Over the past couple years, our residents have expressed concern with increasing levels of development that are altering the character of our community and are fi lling in valuable open/green spaces. These are the features that make Mount Lookout unique and attracted most of us to the community,” Prevost said.

“Many of these new developments have also resulted in drainage concerns as more of our hillsides are developed and converted to impervious surfaces. The Redstone development…certainly has the potential to exacerbate these issues.”

Redstone has said it will take neighborhood concerns into consideration before fi nalizing plans, which will come after it completes technical work such as survey, engineering, geotechnical and traffi c studies, Prevost said.

A man in formal wear robbed a U.S. Bank Friday, Feb. 22 in Sycamore Township, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff ’s Offi ce.

The man wore a gray suit, black dress shoes and gloves and carried a handgun, authorities said in a statement. The incident occurred just before 3 p.m. at 10851 Montgomery Road.

The sheriff ’s offi ce said he displayed the handgun, jumped on the counter

Prevost said the Mt. Lookout Community Council may take a position on the proposed development as plans are fi rmed up.

A group of concerned citizens called “Looking Out for Mt. Lookout” isn’t The group is rallying residents to fi ght the Redstone development, saying on its website that the subdivision would destroy one of the last remaining forested areas of Mount Lookout, create traffi c problems, burden public-service providers, reduce property values and “accelerate the trend to overrun the historic beauty of Mt. Lookout and turn it into yet another high-density residential commuter area.”

Meanwhile, Prevost said the Mt. Lookout Community Council welcomes Cincinnati’s new subdivision regulations, which: ❚ Reduce from six to four the number of proposed subdivision lots that require public city planning commission review as opposed to administrative review by the city planning department. ❚ Trigger planning commission re-

view no matter the number of proposed lots if they involve the creation of panhandle lots or could lead to water or sewer issues. ❚ Require signs to be posted on property for which subdivision applications have been fi led with information on how to contact city planning staff with questions and concerns.

“This allows the community an opportunity to understand what is being proposed and to raise concerns to the city planning department, before action is taken,” Prevost said.

“Mt. Lookout Community Council believes that this will greatly improve the process and provide for public input where appropriate.”

SCHOOL NEWS CCDS students compete in MIT Science Olympiad When 16 Cincinnati Country Day Upper School students traveled to Boston recently to compete in the MIT Science Olympiad Invitational competition, the four-day trip was both educational and a transformative experience they’ll never forget.

The CCDS team was one of 75 schools in the country selected to participate in the prestigious, highly competitive national event.

Country Day students graded the competition diffi cult.

Yet, in two events, the CCDS team placed 22nd out of the 75 teams.

It was a humbling experience, but the students embraced it as an opportunity to learn and improve for two upcoming competitions in Ohio.

“Our kids just handled it so well for such a challenging competition among the top teams from around the country,” said Paula Butler, US science teacher and Science Olympiad advisor.

“In more than two decades with Science Olympiad, we’ve never traveled this far, and it was successful on so many levels,” Butler said.

Upper School teachers Jamie Back and Marcus Twyford accompanied the group.

Visiting the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT was a highlight of the trip.

Students took a tour and attended a career panel featuring four scientists.

“Students were surprised to hear that engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, biologists, chemists and you name it, were working together on diff erent aspects of cancer research,” said Back, who had arranged the visit to Koch.

They were also surprised by the non-traditional career paths some panelists had taken to their current jobs. For example, a lab tech had once worked as an airtraffi c controller.

While they were unable to enter labs due to safety and security concerns, they were able to peek inside, see everyone working and hear from a tour guide about some work in progress.

For some students, the visit solidifi ed their chosen career paths or got them thinking about careers in medicine or medical research.

“One of the things I most enjoyed on the trip was going to the Koch Institute and seeing cutting-edge cancer research in person, as well as getting to hear some of the top researchers in the country talk about their college experience,” said senior Sean Stewart of Indian Hill.

“As someone preparing to leave for college, and who is interested in medical research, it was

incredible to hear how varied their career paths were, but they all were able to work in their preferred fi eld and conduct research to help fi ght cancer.”

One of the highlights for Butler was an event the group hosted for CCDS alumni who are working or attending college in Boston.

“It was such a delight to get to visit with our alums again and to watch the interactions between the alums and our present students,” Butler said.

Several alums had been on the CCDS Science Olympiad team and at least two had been captains, Trisha Atluri ’16 of Indian Hill and Sebastian Koochaki ’10 of Boston.

Students asked the seven alums what college is like, how they decided on their majors, if they did internships and why they chose their colleges.

Some current CCDS students are considering colleges in Boston.

Sip on these to help heal seasonal ailments Hot ginger tea with a “kick”

Chilled apple ginger sparklers

Lemons contain vitamin C, which may decrease the strength of a cold, or flu. Cayenne helps with mucus and congestion. As mentioned, ginger is anti-inflammatory and calms the tummy.

As Mom said “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” I’m thinking that applies to apple cider, too!

Ingredients 2 cups water 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, unpeeled, chopped Lemon juice to taste Pinch of cayenne pepper powder optional Honey or sweetener to taste Instructions

Pick your remedy: golden milk, hot ginger tea with a kick or chilled apple ginger sparklers. RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Bring water to a boil. Add ginger and lemon juice. Remove from heat.

Cover and steep 5-10 minutes. Add cayenne. Strain and sweeten.

Tip Ginger and lemons freeze well.

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Well, one thing’s for sure - the cold and fl u season is still with us.

Today I’m sharing some hydrating, healing drinks that can help make sniffl es and aches go away or at least more tolerable.

My newest fave is the wildly popular golden milk, made with ginger and turmeric.

Turmeric is the spice that puts the yellow color in golden milk.

(I use turmeric to color Easter eggs a brilliant gold, as well. More on that later).

The ginger tea is a classic, warming beverage.

Need a chilled drink to bring the heat down? Try the apple ginger sparkler.

Honey and infants According to the CDC, infants under the age of 1 should not consume honey.

Indian Hill High School’s Nollis Cottrell top counselor in Greater Cincinnati The awards keep coming for the Indian Hill High School (IHHS) Counseling Department.

Wednesday, Feb. 6, IHHS Counselor Nollis Cottrell was surprised with a recognition celebration to honor her selection as a top counselor in Greater Cincinnati by the Career Quest counselor recognition award program.

“I was totally shocked that day,” said Cottrell about receiving the award. “It is an honor to be recognized by colleagues both in our high school and out. I work with the best of the best counselors within the Indian Hill School District. I enjoy coming to school each day to work with our amazing students and staff who keep us striving to always be better school counselors.”

The award was presented during National School Counseling Week, a week highlighting the impact school counselors have in helping students achieve success.

“We appreciate everything our counselors do for our students and our families,” said IHHS Principal Jeff Damadeo. “This recognition is much deserved, and we off er a sincere thank you to both Ms. Cottrell and our amazing team for their dedication and service.”

Madeira alumnus returns to inspire When Madeira Elementary School (MES) second grade teacher Fran Wilson ran into the parents of one of her former students recently, she asked what he was doing.

She wasn’t surprised to learn that her former pupil, Madeira High School (MHS) Class of 2014 alumnus Kevin Bradner, was an Engineering student completing an internship at NASA. A visit to MES was set up for Kevin to talk to Fran’s current second grade class, and a neighboring third grade class, to talk about his job at NASA working with Quadcopter drones.

“Kevin was a curious second grader that loved math, science, and researching about space. I’m happy that he pursued his dreams to obtain this incredible opportunity at NASA,” Fran stated.

“I’m thrilled Kevin could come in to talk with my current class and inspire future careers in science.”

The MES students were well prepared for what they wanted to know asking Kevin questions such as, “What do stars look like in space?”, “Are black holes real?”, and “How does our air not get mixed up with space air?” After responding to their inquiries, Kevin told the students what it took to pursue a career in aeronautics. “It takes a lot of knowledge about science and math to send astronauts into space. Pay good attention in class and do science experiments.”

The advice didn’t come too soon from someone who knew what he wanted to do when he was the age the current second graders are now. Fourteen years ago, Kevin and his classmates each wrote and illustrated their own book through the district’s Young Authors program.

Kevin brought the book he wrote during the 2003-2004 school year to read to the class. The book gave a glimpse into Kevin’s future as the front of his book, How to Make Rock Candy, was covered with pictures of planets in the solar system.

Before leaving Kevin gave the students some words of wisdom about what they could do until they were ready to pursue their own careers.

“There is a nice blanket of sky protecting us,” he told them. “Take good care of the earth so it stays there.”

CHCA varsity girls wore teal to raise awareness of ovarian cancer. PROVIDED

CHCA hosts ‘Teal Power’ event for ovarian cancer awareness The Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy and Cincinnati Country Day Girls’ Basketball teams recently came together to raise funds and awareness for ovarian cancer.

The event took place on Wednesday, Feb. 6 at CHCA’s Martha S. Lindner Upper School. Junior High teams played at 4:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m., followed by the Varsity team at 7:30 p.m.

According to the American Cancer Society, Ovarian cancer ranks fi fth in cancer deaths among women, accounting for more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. A woman’s risk of getting ovarian cancer during her lifetime is about 1 in 78. This cancer mainly develops in older women.

About half of the women who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer are 63 years or older. About 22,530 women will receive a new diagnosis of ovarian cancer in 2019.

With only 20-percent of cases of ovarian cancers found early enough to treat the disease, these student-athletes are doing their part to raise awareness of this silent killer of women.

“The CHCA Varsity team did a fabulous job hosting the second annual ‘Teal

Power Shoot Out’, shared CHCA parent and Teal Power organizer, Vasanthi Chalasani. “It was a huge success in driving awareness and raising money for research. Teal Power Shoot Out leverages high school basketball as a platform to drive awareness for ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer impacts 1 in 5 women and as young as 17 years old. Hence, the objective is to educate women of all ages on symptoms to prevent from being impacted by this disease. This also provided the opportunity for our young women to develop leadership skills – not only in class and on the basketball court, but also in the community. We are very proud of the team and eff ort they put in to make this a success. Thank you to all who came to support the CHCA Girls’ Varsity basketball team.”

Teams, players, and the community at large participated in raising nearly $4,000 for Ovarian Cancer Alliance of Greater Cincinnati. There was a bake sale, t-shirts for sale, and a split-the-pot raffl e. Teams also disseminated information regarding ovarian cancer. Television news media were there to capture the event, and most importantly, ovarian cancer survivors and their families were recognized before the varsity game.

Madeira High School Senior Ryan Lienhart was the leading scorer for this year’s Cincinnati Hills League boys soccer season, the second leading scorer in the city, and was named all-state for the second year.

As the MHS football team’s kicker, he was also 25 for 25 in extra points and kicked the game-winning fi eld goal that helped Madeira secure enough points to host a playoff game. Ryan has a 4.4 GPA and is considering pre-med as a college major. Now he’s been nominated for an award separate from any of those accomplishments.

Ryan is one of only seven local students nominated for the I Am Sport Award which honors high school student-athletes who are committed to giving back to their communities.

For the past two years, Ryan has been dedicated to raising funds for City Gospel Mission – a center in downtown Cincinnati that provides food and shelter, recovery, and job readiness to more than 10,000 of the city’s homeless adults and youth.

As a high school Junior, Ryan took part in City Gospel’s Kicking for Hunger, in which kickers from area high school teams asked for pledges for each point they scored in varsity football games.

He raised over $3,000, making him the organization’s leading fundraiser for the year. Monies raised helped provide hot breakfasts and dinners to more than 100 homeless and hungry guests a day at City Gospel.

This fall Ryan wanted to do more than simply ask friends and family to donate. His uncle and grandfather had organized golf outings in the past, so he was familiar with how they were run.

Over the next several months Ryan secured a venue, gathered event sponsors and in-kind donors, and prepared for over 100 participants who attended the “Kicking Hunger Golf Outing to Benefi t City Gospel Mission.” The event raised over $10,000, bringing Ryan’s two-year total donations to the center to over $12,000.

Ryan’s dedication earned him the I Am Sport nomination, which can be voted on through March 5 using the hashtag #IAMSPORT2019 on social media. The three nominees with the highest number of votes will be invited to attend the Cincinnati.com Sports Awards where they will fi nd out if they won, and celebrate with other local nominees.

The dual sport Madeira Senior has also been nominated for Athlete of the Year in the Boys Soccer Small School Division, which will be voted on by the Sports Department of The Cincinnati Enquirer.

After leaving his mark on Madeira Athletics, Ryan Lienhart entered a whole new arena through his commitment to helping provide for others. “It’s nice being remembered for something other than contributions to sports,” Ryan stated. Plenty of people who have dropped by City Gospel Mission for a hot meal think it’s nice too Diane Nichols

Greater Cincinnati typically has a large amount of swimming and diving champions. For those keeping score, here are this year's 2019 champions, to be updated as they happen.

Sycamore boys 200-medley relay Sycamore High School junior Carson Foster, senior Jake Foster, junior Ansel Froass and senior Elliot Carl won the 200-yard medley relay state championship with a time of 1:28.48. They broke the state tournament record and state record for Division I with this performance Saturday, Feb. 23.

Bombers win 40th career OHSAA state title for swimming Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

CANTON - The feeling of winning an OHSAA state team swimming championship never gets old. The sensation is still fresh for St. Xavier fourth-year head Tim Beerman, who joined the program's unprecedented run of team titles already in progress.

On Saturday, Feb. 23, Beerman made it 4-for-4 in his tenure, watching as his AquaBombers captured their 11th consecutive OHSAA Division I team championship and 40th overall.

"It was fantastic and it's been a great season. These guys have put 100 percent into everything they've done. But not only that, half of this team has never made the state meet before, so they pushed themselves up to that next level and that's what made this accomplishment even achievable," Beerman said. "It was a great experience, they've been a great team and formed a great spirit over the course of the four months. All the credit is due to them for earning the

school's 40th."

Forty was not a runaway for the Division I juggernaut. St. Xavier was locked in a tight battle with Sycamore as brothers Jake and Carson Foster racked up a combined eight state championships.

After the 50-yard freestyle, Sycamore held a one-point lead over St. Xavier, but the AquaBombers weathered the storm over the fi nal seven events with a pair of state championships to emerge victorious, 310-240. It was the closest margin of victory for St. Xavier at state since a 17-point victory over St. Francis DeSales in 2014.

"I wouldn't say it was nervousness; it's acknowledgement," Beerman said about Sycamore's eff ort. "They have some great swimmers on their team and we know 'em very well. They spurred us on the great things, too, and hopefully we did some of that in return. It was a great competition for everyone involved."

Junior Jean-Pierre Khouzam, who was apart of two relay titles last year, gave the AquaBombers their fi rst state

championship of the meet, winning the 100 butterfl y with a time of 47.21, just shy of Austin Staab's state-best time of 47.10.

Khouzam was again a two-time champion, closing St. Xavier's state title in the 200 free relay along with senior JP Khouzam, junior Ian Van Gorp and sophomore Owen Taylor.

St. Xavier opened and closed that Saturday's portion with runner-up relay fi nishes - fi rst in the 200 medley, then in the 400 freestyle.

Throughout the meet St. Xavier used its quantity to ultimately pull away from second-place Sycamore. Senior Grady Wheeler was fourth in the 200 freestyle and runner-up in the 500 freestyle and junior Kellen Roddy placed fourth. Junior Nate Buse placed in the 100 butterfl y and the 100 backstroke. Junior Scott Sobolweski was runner-up in the 100 breaststroke and senior Jon Bernard claimed a spot on the podium in the breaststroke and the 200 individual medley. Van Gorp was on three relay teams.

Ursuline Academy senior Megan Glass won a pair of state championships. First, in the 200-yard freestyle race, she avenged her second-place fi nish in last year's 200, with a time of 1:47.77.

She also broke the OHSAA state tournament record, state record and pool record in the girls Division l 100yard butterfl y fi nals with a time of 53.31 for her second title of the day.

Glass has signed to swim at Michigan next year.

"They really have put their heart and soul into achieving this and it took every single one of them. Our diver today (junior Ben Cutforth) managed to move into scoring position and every one of those points is part of the total," Beerman said.

"I hope it's a memory, not in terms of the championship, but in terms of the experience and the relationships that they've built over the past few months."

Tamara Harkavy, ArtsWorks CEO and artistic director, moved to Norwood in 1995.

Everything runs through Norwood Norwood and the collection of experiences for those who chose to move there become the fabric of who the people are.

It’s not rare that we fi nd creative people who have chosen to move to Norwood and proudly call it home.

Tamara Harkavy Tamara Harkavy is the founding CEO and artistic director of ArtWorks, which has become a leader in combining youth empowering programs and putting Cincinnati on the national map for public art.

In 1995, Tamara moved from Hyde Park to Norwood with her family because of its location, which she described as “the best location in the region; you can be anywhere in the city in 22 minutes. We’ve been loving our neighborhood.”

Tamara was born in North Avondale and graduated from the DAAP School of Planning at the University of Cincinnati.

She went to work with Downtown Cincinnati, Inc., before founding Artworks Cincinnati. One summer on a trip to Chicago she was inspired to create an employment program for youth through public art. Youth Cincinnati Collaborative helped her to make that happen, and now, Artworks has hired more than 3,500 youth and created more than 100 murals in Cincinnati.

Welcome to the neighborhood When the Harkavys moved to their house in Norwood, there was a day-care center in the church behind them. At Easter time, the children wrote prayers and tied them on to balloons. When the children released the balloons, the winds came and immediately blew the

balloons into a giant walnut tree in their backyard and got all tangled in the tree.

According to Tamara, it was super beautiful to see the colorful balloons like leaves on the hundred-foot tree full of prayers.

Just like North Avondale where she grew up, Norwood has similar walkability that she loves. She often walks her dog around the neighborhood, crossing Smith Road, and sometimes saw Gretchen, a wild turkey famous with the residents here.

When asked about creating a mural in Norwood, she said she was open to the idea. We’ll see in if an Artworks mural will run through Norwood.
