A West Side staple will be closing.

Stone’s Restaurant in Cheviot will close after more than 50 years of operation. The last day will be Jan. 25.

“It is with mixed emotions that we announce that Chris and Stephanie will offi cially be retiring after more than 57 years of serving home-cooked meals to the Cheviot and west side community,” the owners posted on Facebook.

The restaurant, at 3605 Harrison Ave., has served home-cooked meals since 1962. It was founded by Michael and Mary Stone.

“Words cannot express how thankful we are for the honor to have served you. The lifelong friends we have made over the last 57 years continue to have a lasting impact on our lives and in our hearts. We’ve shared your joys and sorrows, laughter and tears, and made countless memories,” Chris and Stephanie Stone said.

“Our humble little restaurant has never been just a business to us, it’s been our home and we loved sharing it with you,” the owners said.

Win or lose this year, Rep. Steve Chabot might be nearing an end to his congressional career.

The Republican congressman from Westwood told The Enquirer he's undecided on whether he'll retire after his next term if he wins re-election this year.

His decision will, at least in part, depend on how the Ohio General Assembly redraws congressional district lines Chabot to conform with the population changes revealed in the next Census.

Because Ohio voters in 2018 passed Issue 1, Chabot's district will likely get much less conservative by 2022.

Issue 1 was designed to curb gerrymandering, where the party in control of the state legislature redraws the district lines to favor its candidates.

Ohio's slower population growth relative to the rest of the country will also likely mean the state will lose a congressional seat. That could put Chabot and fellow Republican Congressman Brad Wenstrup, R-Columbia Tusculum, in the same district.

Gates to Cincinnati’s Porkopolis past reported stolen were returned Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A gate to Cincinnati’s Porkopolis past is back after being reported stolen Tuesday, Jan. 7.

A recent miscommunication led to the ornate metal Kahn’s meat-packing plant gates to be removed from their Spring Grove Avenue location, according to property owner Rhinegeist Brewery.

James Heller-Jackson, a community organizer for the Camp Washington Community Board said he reported the gates stolen to police on Jan. 7 after people saw them being taken on a fl atbed truck.

“The gates have been returned,” said Michael Rutter, distribution and warehouse director for Rhinegeist. “It was an honest mistake of miscommunication, this is nothing more than that.”

Rhinegeist owns the former meatpacking plant property in the 3200block of Spring Grove Avenue where the gates were taken. Rhinegeist has built a new warehouse and brewery on the property as a focal point of the redevelopment of the 16.9-acre site. The area

where the meat-packing plant once was is now a vacant strip of land between Spring Grove Avenue and a railroad yard. Kahn’s founded a slaughterhouse in Cincinnati in 1882. The Spring Grove Avenue meat-packing plant was closed in 2006 and donated to Hamilton County in 2007.

Rhinegist previously allowed a person who collects scrap to take some pieces of metal, Rutter said.

“They were always told the gates were strictly off -limits,” he said.

The scrap collector came back Jan. 7 asking about the gates, Rutter said. The scrap collector took a response from a new supervisor that he knew nothing about the gates, to mean they could be taken.

No charges will be pursued, Rutter said. The gates are now out of view of Spring Grove Avenue.

Rhinegeist has previously agreed to give the gates to Camp Washington once they are able to move them to a new location.

Heller-Jackson said Camp Washington’s goal is to install the gates on another property eventually.

“The gates are irreplaceable, handmade well over 75 years ago,” he said.

The gates served as a Gateway to Kahn’s hot dog plant for a long time, Heller-Jackson said.

“We need to hold onto this Porkopolis history,” he said.

Right, the former Kahn’s meat-packing plant gates reported stolen from Spring Grove Avenue have been returned, said a representative of property owner Rhinegeist Brewery AMES HELLER-JACKSON/PROVIDED

A 94-unit Hampton Inn hotel is in the planning stages in Green Township PROVIDED

Green Township officials are looking into adding a multiuse path at Kuliga Park.

5 things to watch for in Green Township in 2020 Segann March Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Green Township offi cials have approved and pushed many new developments and quality of life projects forward into 2020.

The township's goals are to continue community outreach among the various departments, continue beautifying the area and focusing on the quality of life aspect to encourage young family development.

Here are fi ve things to watch for this upcoming year: The new Hampton Inn Hotel is set to open in fall Brandicorp, a development company based in Bellvue, Kentucky, is spearheading the zone change for Hampton Inn and Suites.

The 96-room hotel will be located at 6336 Harrison Ave. The plan also includes a 6,200-square-foot, one-story commercial building and lot. The hotel will be completed no later than Jan. 1, 2022, but be fi nshed at an earlier date.

Kuliga Park improvements and expansion The park, located at 6717 Bridgetown Road, is getting major improvements.

Residents can expect in Phase One: a new one-mile trail, pavilion stage and updated restrooms around the park.

The fi rst phase will be completed in 2020.

The township also applied for a state capital grant to add four additional pickleball courts, repave the tennis courts

and to add a pedestrian connection.

Construction of Jet's Pizza and Buffalo Wild Wings Both Buff alo Wild Wings and Jet's Pizza are in the process of being built.

The Jet's Pizza Restaurant will be located at Harrison Avenue and Filview Circle, while BW3 will be located behind the Kroger Marketplace on Harrison Avenue.

The BW3 proposal — approved by the Hamilton County Zoning Commission in August — also includes an offi ce or retail space attached to the popular wing franchise.

The proposal also included several external features, including but not limited to: a permanent green space with a retention pond, an outdoor seating area and a 263-space parking lot.

The construction for BW3 has not started and Jet's Pizza should be completed by spring 2020.

Exact dates were not immediately available.

The next phase of the hike/bike trail from Wesselman Road to Veterans Park will begin Township offi cials are looking at multiple options to connect the trailhead parking at Hutchinson to Veterans Park. This may include the opportunity to extend behind some businesses and utilize the sidewalk on Harrison Avenue.

There is also a plan in place to connect Veterans Park near Wesselman Rd and the Eagle Lake Condominiums.

Green Township hopes to add pickleball courts similar to those behind Joseph Lambing, director of public services, at Kuliga Park as part of planned 2020 improvements. THE ENQUIRER/FORREST SELLERS

YOUR HEALTH with Dr. Owens

Pete Rose is betting again – this time on himself Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

2020 is about getting healthy for Charlie Hustle.

And he wants you to join him.

Pete Rose, former Reds player and manager, has partnered with Healthy Wage to launch the “Pete Rose HealthyWager” challenge where participants can win up to $10,000 by hitting their own personal weight loss goals. The challenge runs from January through June 30.

Rose’s goal is to lose 10 percent of his body weight in six months, ac-

cording to the release. If he makes it, he’ll win $2,000.

Rose “If there is one thing I’m willing to bet on, it’s my weight loss,” Rose said in the release. “More than 20,000 people have already gotten paid to lose weight through HealthyWage, so it’s clear this ‘money motivation’ method gives people striving to lose weight a serious competitive edge.”

Police issued a wanted poster for Duke on New Year's Eve. On Thursday, Jan. 2, Duke appeared in Hamilton County Municipal Court.

play a factor in whether he'll run again for Congress, he told The Enquirer.

"We'll see what it looks like," said Chabot, 66, who was fi rst elected to Congress in 1994. "That'll be some factor in making that decision. But that's down the road."

Chabot has benefi ted from a district drawn by a Republican-controlled state legislature.

The only time Chabot lost was in 2008, when most of his district was

Hamilton County with a piece of Butler County to the north.

In 2011, lawmakers moved some Hamilton County precincts from the 1st Congressional District to the 2nd District and gave Chabot all of Warren County, a conservative suburban county to the north that President Donald Trump won with 66% of the vote.

Chabot even thanked the Ohio General Assembly for putting Warren County in his district.

Democrats have advocated for a Hamilton County-only congressional district given the county's leftward political shift.

Chabot thinks things are fi ne as they are with Hamilton County split among two Republican congressmen, himself and Wenstrup.

And he doesn't see it changing.

"We've had two representatives here for a long time," Chabot said. "I think it goes all the way back to the Civil War. And you have more infl uence, more power in Washington, if you have two representatives instead of one."

That's the argument he said he'll make to the legislature during redistricting. Of course, that's contingent on if he wins this year.

Big changes coming to local libraries Scott Wartman Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Voters in Hamilton County in 2018 agreed to double the amount they pay for libraries.

In 2020, they'll see what they're getting in return.

This year, the oldest libraries in the system will get a new life and a new look will be planned for the Downtown branch, according to the 10-year, $150 million plan unveiled Wednesday, Jan.8 for the 41 branches of the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County.

The 2018 levy will bring in an extra $19 million a year to help the eff orts. The levy raised the annual library taxes paid by the homeowner of a $100,000 home from $28 to $63.

Here are some highlights of what to expect this year:

This is a rendering of the new front entrance to the Price Hill library.

The return of the Price Hill library

Downtown library facelift planned

The 111-year-old Price Hill library could re-open this year for the fi rst time since a chunk of ceiling fell onto the main fl oor in July 2018.

It has sat shuttered on the hilltop on Warsaw Avenue ever since.

Price Hill residents have had to borrow their books from a small space in the Price Hill Community Recreation Center for the past 17 months.

The old library will re-open by the end of 2020 or early 2021 after an estimated $6.5 million to $7.5 million in work is completed. When it does, the library will have a new elevator, ramps and more than double the space.

The design will start this year on a revamped plaza outside the Vine Street entrance of the downtown library.

The current entrance is raised atop paved steps. The plan is to take the steps out and create an open, street-level plaza. The fountain there could get relocated. The rationale is to create a more open atmosphere and better visibility from the street, according to the plan.

The exact budget and timeframe for this haven't been set, library spokesman Chris Rice said.

Walnut Hills gets historic renovation Not much has changed to the Walnut Hills library since it opened in 1905 with a grant from steel magnate Andrew Carnegie.

At Work On Purpose launches institute to equip leaders around the world At Work On Purpose (AWOP) is expanding its reach with the launch of the Institute, an initiative that will allow the growing community to further develop and advance citywide workplace ministries around the world.

Announced over dinner at 3z.net in Covington to a group of more than 90 Christian business owners and executives, the Institute will have several dimensions to continue to fuel the faith at work movement it supports.

With a vision to restore full Christian commitment and contribution to work, the AWOP Institute will focus on guiding Christian marketplace leaders to fully harness their organizations as platforms for advancing God’s Kingdom throughout the marketplace.

“AWOP has become a citywide model for workplace ministry — a distinct model that is collaborative and very unique,” said Chuck Proudfi t, founder and president of AWOP and the Institute. “We’ve done something diff erent here. Across church homes, denominations, zip codes and ministries — we have built a network across the city — and the nodes in that network are prototypes, and they are projects, and those faith-at-work expressions are happening all over our city,” explained Proudfi t.

“We now have an opportunity with the Institute to further mobilize working Christians to bring their Sunday faith to their Monday work,” he said.

truck, whose story was shared by Sister Judy Tensing. Tensing is co-founder of Venice on Vine.

Tensing explained how, for the last 35 years, Venice on Vine has helped adults overcome barriers to gaining employment.

Those barriers can include generational poverty, lack of access to a quality education, addiction, or a history with the court systems.

Venice on Vine provides its workers with a sense of place and provides work skills development, she explained.

Tensing provided one of many examples, provided throughout the event, of AWOP community leaders and organizations making a diff erence in the city.

Several other executives, owners, and non-profi t leaders shared their stories at the event, sparking conversation on cultural health and how the Institute will help them develop their leaders, steward their organizations, and impact the communities in which they work

and live.

Julie Thomas, president of Priority Logistics Group and Priority Dispatch, talked about the power of expressing faith at work. She also shared how her organization treats workers with deep respect and care.

Kelly McCracken, president of Franciscan Media, talked about the value of content and information in helping to improve peoples’ lives. “How can we really make an impact on people’s lives?

That’s what I see really coming to life in the AWOP Institute,” she said.

Tom Thatcher, director of the AWOP Institute, added how the new platform will encourage collaboration from diverse industries and sectors.

“The Institute will create experiences that we can use to extend the scope of AWOP’s message and reach, including partnering with other organizations such as schools, churches, and other marketplace ministries,” he said.

Thatcher explained that this includes the “next generation” of leaders within local churches, business, education, and government.

Dan Kiley, Chairman of the Board at Arria NLG, also spoke at the event, emphasizing that the Institute will help to harness resources for the common good of every city it touches.

“Our city needs it. Our state needs it, our country needs it, the world needs it.

We need to come together, we need to share our blessings with each other, and we need to share our knowledge with each other,” he said.

“The timing is now — and the Institute is here with the opportunity to impact generations of people,” said Kiley.

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

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

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

Fish wrapped in parchment ready for oven.

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

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

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

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

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

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

Ingredients

Fish cooked in parchment.

PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE ENQUIRER

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Don’t overcook.

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

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

No parchment? No problem.

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

Don’t assume you’ll work forever Simply Money Nathan Bachrach and Amy Wagner Guest columnists USA TODAY NETWORK – REGION

Question: Thomas from Oakley: I’m 60 and plan on working another 10 to 15 years, which will get me into my 70s before I retire.

How much money should I have saved? Can I get by with less than normal since I’ll be retiring later than most people?

A: We know your question is about how much you should save, but to start, we’re going to challenge your entire premise.

Because while you may plan to work another decade or more, that’s not always feasible – life has a tendency to get in the way.

On our Simply Money radio show, we always like to say retirement usually comes down to “sickness.” Either you get sick and need to quit, someone you love gets sick and you need to quit to care for them, your boss gets sick of you and lets you go, or you fi nally get sick of your job and call it a career.

As you’ll notice, you really only have control over the last scenario.

And the numbers back us up: According to the Employee Benefi t Re-

search Institute’s 2019 Retirement Confi dence Survey, while 80% of workers believe they’ll work during retirement, only 28% actually do. And the median retirement age is actually just 62 – not the “traditional’ age of 65 that most people associate with offi cial retirement.

In your case, that’s just two years from now. Are you prepared if something happens and you’re forced to retire earlier than you planned?

As for how to know how much you’ll need for retirement, the big number you need to fi gure out is how much of your current income needs to be replaced.

We recommend reading our column from the end of October for a more detailed explanation.

Here’s The Simply Money Point: We’re not saying you won’t work into your 70s. If you have good genes you very well may.

But many times, retirement is something that happens to someone. You need to at least plan for the worst-case scenario. Otherwise, you could get fi nancially blindsided.

Q: Mike and Jen in Harrison: We have a 529 plan set up for our 3-yearold. But both sets of our parents want to set one up as well. Is this a good idea?

A: Technically, there is no limit on how many 529 plans can be in the name of the same benefi ciary (in this case, your child). Most of the time it usually

makes the most sense to have grandparents contribute to the plan you already have open – this just keeps it simple.

But there are a couple of scenarios in which opening multiple accounts can be benefi cial.

For instance, the 529 plan account owner is the one who gets a state income tax deduction (if applicable). If your parents would like this perk, they would need to have the account in their own name.

Additionally, every state with a 529 plan off ers varying investment options.

Since the accountholder doesn’t have to use their own state’s plan, having multiple accounts invested in diff erent state plans gives you the ability to diversify.

There’s also a diff erence when it comes to the formula for student aid.

The FAFSA considers money in a parent-owned account as parental assets, which is counted at a lower rate than if it were the child’s assets.

Money in a non-parent owned account is not counted at all against the child.

One important note: If all of you open a 529 plan in the same state, be sure to know the per-benefi ciary account balance maximum (which varies by state).

Total contributions to all accounts with the same benefi ciary cannot exceed this limit (for example, $468,000 in Ohio).

The Simply Money Point is that 529 plans are a tax-savvy way to save for future educational costs, so we’re glad you’re making this account a priority within your overall fi nancial picture. A credentialed fi nancial advisor can help you decide the best course of action for your family.

La Salle’s Jaylen Johnson commits to Ohio State football

Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

La Salle’s Jaylen Johnson will be staying in Ohio.

On Tuesday, Jan. 7, the junior defensive back announced on Twitter his verbal commitment to play football at Ohio State University.

A three-star recruit, Johnson is ranked by 247sports as Ohio’s No. 11 player in the Class of 2021 and the No. 16 safety in the nation.

Johnson had a total of 15 scholarship off ers, which included Cincinnati, Indiana and Kentucky.

Johnson becomes the eighth commit in Ohio State’s Class of 2021 and the fi fth from Ohio, joining Pickerington North defensive end Jack Sawyer, Revere off ensive tackle Ben Christman, Massillon Washington wide receiver Jayden Ballard and Ironton linebacker Reid Carrico.

This past season, Johnson was a second team All-Ohio and a fi rst team all-district selection, helping lead the Lancers to their fourth Division II state championship in six years.

Johnson, who was fi rst team all-GCL-South, had 61 tackles and a forced fumble last season on a La Salle defense that posted three shutouts and surrendered just 10.6 points per game in the postseason.

After years of watching pickleball clubs form in other cities, Mitch Dunn and Karen Games decided a Cincinnatibased club was long overdue. They launched the Cincinnati Pickleball Club on Jan. 6.

“There is already a phenomenal community of players in Cincinnati, but the city lacks infrastructure that we think players will really benefi t from,” Games said The club’s vision is to transform Cincinnati into the hub of Midwest pickleball.

“A great vision should be audacious.

So, when we thought about ours, we thought really big. There is no reason why the city should settle for anything less than being seen as one of the true leaders for pickleball in the country,” Dunn said The club’s mission is to facilitate the growth of pickleball in and around Cincinnati. The club welcomes anyone to join, regardless of skill level, and will be focused on building an environment that helps people learn the game, improve their skills, and connect socially.

As anyone who has picked up a paddle knows, the sport is addictive. It is not uncommon to see players go from being introduced to the sport to playing multiple days a week in a matter of months.

The club’s virtual home base is cincin natipickleball.com. The site is where players register to become members, fi nd places to play in the city, and stay on top of the latest news coming out of the club. The club can also be found on Facebook (@cincinnatipickleballclub) and Instagram (@cincinnatipickleball). The See COMMUNITY, Page 6B

nati since 1986.

Working alongside the homebuyers were hundreds of volunteers from local businesses, schools, and faith communities who believe in the Habitat model of “a hand up, not a handout.” Major funding support came from: Ohio National Financial Services, Farmer Family Foundation, Hamilton County Community Development, Robert & Adele Schiff Family Foundation, St. Elizabeth Healthcare, Schneider Electric, JPMorganChase, and Ford Fund & Community Services. Habitat Greater Cincinnati’s Eastside and HOPE faith coalitions provided both volunteer and fi nancial support for the homes in Lincoln Heights and Lower Price Hill.

“Nothing about the Habitat program is a free ride,” said HFHGC President/CEO Ed Lee. “The families who partner with Habitat are ambitious and hard-working, but do not qualify for a conventional mortgage. We work with them to ensure they can be successful homeowners. At the same time, we build bridges among volunteers, sponsors, and neighbors.”

For more information about how to qualify to purchase a home, becoming a fi nancial supporter or volunteering, visit www.habitatcincinnati.org or call 513-6214147.

Founded in 1986, Habitat of Humanity of Greater Cincinnati is a non-profi t Christian housing ministry that seeks to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. Over the decades, Habitat has built, renovated, or repaired more than 670 homes in southwestern Ohio, northern Kentucky and southeastern Indiana. Globally, the organization has contributed to building more than 1,000 homes in Armenia, Cambodia, El Salvador, Kenya and Nepal.

SCHOOL NEWS Writing Our Roots Awards Ceremony 2019 The community recently greeted the winners of Writing Our Roots.

Celebrating the creativity of Cincinnati’s young writers, students ages 1323 shared their own prose and poetry based on their heritage at the Charles Phelps Taft Research Center at UC. Writing Our Roots, the fi rst Cincinnati-Area Young People’s Writing Contest was sponsored by the Urban Appalachian Community Coalition, the University of Cincinnati English Department, and WordPlay Cincinnati with additional funding and in-kind support from the UC Taft Research Center, UC College of Arts and Sciences, UC Department of Romance and Arabic Languages and Literature, UC African American Cultural and Resource Center, Thomas More University Creative Writing Vision Program, and the Harriet Beecher Stowe House Cincinnati.

The awards ceremony represented the culmination of many months of work by these partner sponsors and of course the over forty young writers who sent their work.

Students had the opportunity to join Desirae Hosley, Pauletta Hansel and Yalie Kamara at WordPlay for Writing Our Roots workshops in preparation for the contest.

Thanks to all the members of our generous community who took part; including our sponsors, participants, judges, parents, and volunteers who supported this fi rst contest. UACC will continue the event annually.

Eleven students from nine schools shared their work, cheered on by a friendly crowd of parents, friends, and event organizers.

All addressed themes of how their roots, however they see them, helped to shape their families, communities, and views on the world. Representing a wide variety of backgrounds, students told their stories of place and identity.
