District sees few improvements in budget funding over the next two years. As the budget moves to the House of Representatives, those reductions appear to hold steady. “We got a projection of how much supplements will

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Despite more than 1,000 amendments proposed to Gov. John Kasich’s twoyear state budget, Dublin City Schools officials still are looking at a large cut in funding. With the initial budget, the district Stephen expected a $14.5 million cut in state Osborne

help,” district treasurer Stephen Osborne said. “It shows us losing about $330,000 less next year. That’s still over a $6 million loss (next year). The amendments make a difference of $330,000 next year and $426,000 the year after.” According to the initial state budget proposed by Kasich, the largest cuts that Dublin City Schools anticipate come from the early phase-out of tangible-

personal-property-tax reimbursements. House Bill 66 had called for the phaseout of TPPT that businesses pay on inventory, equipment and utilities by 2020. The proposed budget cuts into $20 million expected over the next two years and phases out TPPT reimbursements for the district by 2014. The district also is anticipating a reduction in state foundation funding, to

the tune of $3.65 million over two years. “Not much has changed,” Osborne said May 2. “We’re just waiting for the House to vote on the bill at the end of the week. That’s tentatively set for May 5, then on to the Senate.” Osborne said the district has met with local legislators to make its case, and See DISTRICT, page A2

Technology flex

Council to consider new zoning district By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers A new zoning district that could allow businesses to expand faster and more easily will go before Dublin City Council for a final reading next week. Dublin has industrial zoning codes that

haven’t been modified since the 1970s, and the “technology-flex zoning district” proposes to modernize uses to match what’s desired, make standards more flexible to accelerate development and make the city competitive with other central Ohio communities. According to economic development

manager Colleen Gilger, the “tech-flex” zoning is all about being competitive. “We can stay competitive by broadening uses to tech flex,” she told council members during an April 25 meeting. “It’s all about expanding … uses.” See DUBLIN, page A2

Expect to see several orange barrels at Perimeter Drive and Commerce Parkway over the summer as the city installs another roundabout. Dublin City Council on April 25 voted unanimously to award the $1.1 million project to Double Z Construction. Work is expected to begin this month and continue during the Memorial Tournament and Dublin Irish Festival, said Paul Hammersmith, Dublin’s engineering director. Access will be maintained to the Dublin Justice Center and Delta Energy via a temporary access drive. Traffic will be limited during the construction that is expected to be completed by Sept. 30. “In August or September, for approximately 30 days (depending on the schedule), Perimeter Drive traffic east of Venture Drive will be restricted to one way, eastbound only,” a staff report stated. “Vehicles traveling on Emerald Parkway to Perimeter Drive will be detoured to Shier Rings Road and Avery Road.” City council members asked city staff to post clear parking signs around the area during the Dublin Irish Festival so visitors could find parking spaces during construction.

Dublin’s summer sidewalk repair program also was approved last week. The city will spend $120,868 on the sidewalk maintenance program in Belvedere Green, Shannon Glen, Bristol Commons, Dublinshire, Waterford Village and Llewellyn Farms. Council approved a contract with P.J. Martin & Sons General Contracting for the work that includes repairing sidewalks that have been damaged by tree roots. Hammersmith said tree roots are pruned during the work, but the city tries not to remove the trees. “We try to preserve the trees,” he said. See COUNCIL, page A9

Two new serpentine slides — Anaconda Falls and the Python Plunge — will snake into Zoombezi Bay when the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium water park opens later this month. “Anaconda Falls is unique and different from anything we have in Zoombezi Bay,” said John Gannon, Zoombezi Bay senior vice president. Hands-on research in Florida and Alabama went into picking the two new water rides that will serve as the first major additions to the 4-year-old park. See ZOOMBEZI, page A2

District sees few improvements in budget Continued from page A1 has sent to House’s and Senate’s education and appropriation committee members a board resolution officially opposing the budget. “This is all about this budget release,” Superintendent David Axner said. “We’re very unhappy about it. It’s not about Republicans against Democrats. It’s not about a tax levy. It’s not about S.B. 5. It’s about the new budget release, which redistributed the state dollars in a very

different way. We’re one of 200 schools A closer look that lose money, which, we feel, is unfair.” The district has set a public meetThe district has set ing for 7 p.m. Wednesday, May a public meeting for 11, at Coffman High School, 6780 7 p.m. Wednesday, Coffman Road, to discuss the David Axner May 11, at Coffman state budget and how it would High School, 6780 Coffman Road, to affect the district. discuss the state budget and how it would affect the district. in regards to the budget release,” Axner “We plan to explain what’s going on said. “Hopefully, we’ll have better news.

There are new discussions going on and a ton of amendments being introduced. It feels good that at least we are making a difference. “The other thing is, we’ve invited local legislators and hope we get good attendance there,” he said. “We plan to give each legislator three to five minutes to give their take on the budget release.” Axner urged residents to contact their local legislators with any concerns on the budget.

“I don’t think there’s any question we can make a difference if we can get out and get the community involved that the budget numbers will change,” he said. If the budget passes the House of Representatives, it will move on to the Senate, which also has the opportunity to make changes. The budget must be completed by June 30.

Zoombezi Bay adds Dublin to consider new ‘tech-flex’ district two water slides Continued from page A1

Continued from page A1 “That was a nice day at work. We tested waterslides. It’s fun, but it’s a necessary experience because you want something that will be exciting and invigorating,” Gannon said. “We rode slides and picked the best ones.” Anaconda Falls starts in an enclosed “serpentine slide,” Gannon said. “You don’t know if you’re shifting left or right, up or down. You go through the slide and then burst into sunlight and you immediately drop down 30 feet on a steep hill and that carries you up a 30-foot incline that looks like a skateboard ramp.” After a few harrowing moments on the ramp — “There’s no lip, it looks like you could go over the side, but physics won’t allow it,” Gannon said — the riders start traveling downhill backwards and eventually land in the splash pool. The Python Plunge uses the same entry tower and starts with a downhill plunge before shooting uphill then down again. “It’s a watercoaster. It’s like a rollercoaster because you’re going uphill,” Gannon said. “This is the first one at Zoombezi Bay.” Anaconda Falls is like six other slides across the country, but according to Gannon, the Python Plunge is an original. “It’s a combination of two waterslides,” he said. “The Python Plunge doesn’t exist anywhere else.” Along with offering something new for Zoombezi Bay visitors, Gannon said, the new slides are working toward a shorter time in ride lines. “We’re excited to reduce line length at other slides,” he said. “The new slides have good capacity. A lot of people will be able to ride these in an hour’s time.” The new slithering slides will also sidle up to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. “Where they are is a strategic move to bring the waterpark closer to the zoo,” Gannon said. “You’ll be able to see these water slides from the zoo entry plaza …We hope it adds some excitement to a zoo visit. If you’re at Jungle Jack’s Landing you’ll be able to hear screams from the water park.” Bringing the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium attractions closer together will also mean a few animals at Zoombezi Bay.

Attention realtors! Call me for all your advertising needs!

Six macaws will be perched at the Zoombezi Bay entrance and Gannon said from 2 to 3 p.m. every day animals will be brought to the water park that often visit the Late Show with Jack Hannah and make other appearances at schools and events around central Ohio. “We’ll have everything from flamingos walking around to penguins and cheetahs, snakes, bunnies, turtles,” he said. Visitors can get a crack at the new slides and other water rides when Zoombezi Bay opens at 10:30 a.m. May 21. Gannon said visitors can win free tickets to the season openers from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. May 21 and 22 at Kroger by purchasing a Pepsi product. The water park will also be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. May 25 to 27, before opening at 10:30 a.m. May 28 for the regular season. Admission to Zoombezi Bay is $25 for children ages 2 to 8 and seniors ages 60 and older, and $33 for ages 10 and up. Admission also includes access to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. Season passes and reduced rates for zoo members are also available. For more information, visit zoombezibay.com.

Planner Carson Combs said the techflex zoning would be a zoning code offered in Dublin’s new and expanded Central Ohio Innovation Center. It is planned for areas of Shier Rings Road, with some frontage on U.S. Route 33. “The code provides for a much broader range of uses,” he said, adding that office, laboratory and research would be allowed in the tech-flex zoning. “Permitted uses have been expanded to permit office, research and laboratory uses,” the staff report stated. “A new ‘office flex’ category has been added to also address the need for flexible space for tenants that can be modified over time to serve different business/use functions as companies grow and change.” The updated tech-flex code eventually would lead to the elimination of the city’s

restricted industrial district and limited industrial district. Those zonings currently have “no architectural requirements,” according to the staff report. “Given the focus of this district toward small- to mediumsized tenants that are growing, the purpose of the code is to establish a minimum appearance standard that maintains economic vitality.” Combs said the planning and zoning commission has recommended approval of the tech-flex code, along with modifications to allow corrugated- and ribbedmetal buildings. “(The code) has the intent of architecture of higher quality but still maintain competitiveness with the region,” he said, adding that many buildings in the area already use the corrugated metal. With much of the area slated for the tech-flex zoning already built out, Combs said, the zoning would “accommodate

small, startup businesses.” Rich Irelan, of Dublin Building Systems, told council he supports the techflex zoning and the ability to use corrugated metal. “It’s going to make it a lot easier to attract new business,” he said. Mark Chaffin, representing Hidaka USA, also supported the zoning code and said it would allow the company to expand if needed. A few Dublin City Council members voiced concerns over colors of the corrugated metal and landscaping. Combs said the zoning calls for neutral and earth tone for base tones, although brighter colors could be used for trim and highlights. Landscaping could be studied further, he said. The final reading of the tech-flex zoning is set to go before Dublin City Council on May 9.

Sophomore Lauren Foley (center) sings about her troublesome hairdo during a rehearsal for “Hairspray.” The musical takes the stage at Scioto High School this weekend.

Scioto High School sticking to ‘Hairspray’ this weekend By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A whole lot of hair and dancing have gone into the musical set for Scioto High School. The Broadway musical, “Hairspray,” chronicles Tracy Turnblad and her quest to be on a TV dance show and will take the stage for the first time this weekend. The musical about the teen in 1960s Baltimore was adapted for the stage from John Water’s 1980s movie, “Hairspray.” Director Pat Santanello said the show that features lots of singing and dancing has been highly anticipated by students. “It’s popular. It’s fun. It just became available for high schools,” she said. Senior Jacob Barker agreed. “It’s the production I’ve been looking forward to ever since it was announced last year,” he said. Baker has been involved in

drama throughout his high school years and is working behind the scenes on “Hairspray.”Along with seeing classmate Sean Earley portray Tracy’s mother, Edna Turnblad, Baker said, he enjoys the energy. “I have to say, you can’t stop the beat,” he said. “And I’m interested to see how Edna acts. It’s always interesting to see how a guy plays a girl.” To junior Gabby Robinson, all of the dancing can get intense. “We’re dancing a lot,” Robinson said. “I feel bad for some people because there’s not a moment when they’re not dancing. It’s kind of hard dancing and singing and smiling at the audience all at the same time.” Despite the challenges, Robinson said, she’s happy to play a member of the chorus and Seaweed’s friend in the musical. “I’m really excited. This is my

first time to be part of a group instead of a character,” she said. “Being part of ‘Hairspray’ is incredible.” Sophomore Lauren Foley was happy to take the lead as Tracy Turnblad. “It’s really crazy. I’m a huge fan of ‘Hairspray.’When I got the lead, I was really happy,” she said. This isn’t the sophomore’s first time to take center stage, though. “I’ve been Dorothy in ‘The Wizard of Oz’last year,” she said, adding that she also played a part in “Footloose.” “Hairspray” will be performed at Scioto High School, 4000 Hard Road, at 8 p.m. May 6 and 7 and at 2 p.m. May 7 and 8. Tickets may be purchased at the door or online at showtix4u.com at $10 for adults and $7 for students.

Dublin school funding somewhat at mercy of legislative decisions The first few months of 2011 certainly have seen a lot of legislative activity involving local school districts. The Dublin City School District has been monitoring the situation closely. Superintendent David Axner and I have established relationships with our state legislators and were meeting with them regularly long before the current budgetary process began. Additionally, information concerning Ohio’s dire financial straits had been circulating among Ohio school leaders for some time. Consequently, many of the proposals affecting local school districts did not come as a surprise to us. We were aware that American Recovery & Reinvestment Act money represented a one-time influx of dollars, and we planned accordingly. We did not hire any permanent staff using this “stimulus” money. The reduction in state foundation funds also was expected. Through conversations with our legislators and other factors, it was not difficult to see Ohio’s budget deficit on the horizon. We had anticipated a state foundation reduction in our fiveyear forecast. One curveball that has been thrown our way is the rapid acceleration of the phase-out of tangiblepersonal-property-tax reimbursements. TPPT is the tax that businesses pay on their inventories and equipment, but it was eliminated in favor of a Commercial Activities Tax (CAT) that was diverted to the state of Ohio’s general fund rather than dispersed to local school districts. This change was enacted in 2005. The TPPT reimbursement was intended to hold districts harmless for the loss of TPPT until 2019. The state has greatly accelerated the end of TPPT reimbursements to local districts. This change in policy is going to cost Dublin City Schools more than $8 million over the next two years and ultimately more than $10 million per year. This is a most devastating cut to our district and is contained in the budget proposal currently being considered by the legislature. Our current levy cycle allows us to operate the district through June 2013 without any additional taxpayer dollars. We already have reduced expenditures by more than $11.5 million since 2007 to ensure our cycle lasts through its intended time period. If you combine the elimination of TPPT with the loss of federal dollars, and reductions in state foun-

dations funds, Dublin is expected to lose about $14.5 million during the next two years. Although we have positioned our school district to weather difficult times, this is a significant challenge. We know more challenges and sacrifices are ahead. STEPHEN The potential financial impact OSBORNE Senate Bill 5 will have on our district remains unknown in light of a possible referendum in November. If the two-year budget proceeds in a similar fashion to its current incarnation, we will have to make the corresponding budget reductions to make it through the current levy cycle, which ends in June 2013. Other aspects to recent laws enacted by the legislature include the restoration of five calamity days to this school year and the elimination of the allday kindergarten requirement. With the increase in calamity days, our last day of school will revert to its original day of May 27, provided no additional school days are missed for the remainder of the school year. All-day kindergarten would have cost our district $1.6 million in staffing, and an additional 21 classrooms would have been needed to accommodate the program. The elimination of the all-day kindergarten requirement, combined with the indefinite delay in the construction of a new elementary school, will be helpful in handling the financial challenges ahead. A bright spot for our district is the fact that we have been able to add 12 elementary classrooms at no additional cost to taxpayers. Four classrooms at Wright, Wyandot and Thomas will be ready for students for the 2011-12 school year. This additional capacity at the elementary level will allow us to continue to address student growth in the portion of our district south of Brand Road. The district added more than 350 new students from the fall of 2009 to the beginning of this school year. Our community has a long track record of pulling together during tough times. It will take all of us to make certain our district remains one of Ohio’s best. We will continue to keep you informed as we move through the state’s budget process.

Goodwill agencies to celebrate anniversary To the editor: Goodwill Columbus this week is among more than 165 independent Goodwill agencies across the United States and Canada observing the 60th anniversary of Goodwill Industries Week. Locally, this commemoration also allows us to thank you — our shoppers and donors, and business and government partners — for the important role you play in Goodwill’s day-to-day operations. By donating gently used clothing, furniture and household items to Goodwill, you help others. Each year, Goodwill Columbus provides 1.2 million hours of service to 3,325 participants with disabilities and other barriers through day habilitation programs, community-based supported living services, employment training and job placement services. Additionally, your donations to Goodwill divert usable goods from landfills. In 2010, Goodwill Columbus received revenues of $4.4 million from the resale of donated goods. Your dollars helped to fund more than 15 programs and services for individuals with disabilities and other barriers. Donated items we are unable to sell in our retail stores are spared

Retail: $200 or more

Hamilton Beach Retail: $90 or more Convection At New Uses Oven

from landfills as well. In 2011, Goodwill Columbus expects to recycle more than 1 million pounds of unwanted materials — metal, plastics, and wood, wicker and miscellaneous wares. During Goodwill Industries Week, I just wanted to say “thank you” to the people of Franklin County this year for helping Goodwill continue to “break barriers

and build futures” for so many local individuals with disabilities. For more information on the impact of your donations to Goodwill Columbus, please visit www.goodwillcolumbus.org and www.donate.goodwill.org. Margie Pizzuti president, CEO of Goodwill Columbus

Special needs

Playground set to open May 10 By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers Dublin will open its second special-needs playground May 10. The Emerald Fields playground, at 4040 Wyandotte Woods Blvd., will cater to all children and has been highly anticipated, said Fred Hahn, Dublin’s parks and openspace director. “When this was under construction, there was quite a bit of construction observation by families,” he said. “Any time you were out there, there were families wondering when it was going to open. This is a much anticipated playground.” The 10 a.m. May 10 dedication ceremony will serve as an opportunity for the city to thank local legislators who helped obtain $475,000 in grant funds to build the playground. The funds for designing and building the playground came from state capitalimprovement money via the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and were received

in two payments in 2009 and 2010. “They were very helpful in grants, and this is a way of thanking them again,” Hahn said. “This is a Dublin project, but the geographic location of this playground serves a much larger population than just Dublin. It’s in a few hundred feet of the city of Columbus.” Dublin opened its first special-needs playground in 2007 at Darree Fields Park, 6259 Cosgray Road. Hahn said the playgrounds fall on two different ends of the city, but they share similarities. “It’s comparable in a lot of ways to Miracle Playground. It’s got the same desire and design criteria,” he said. “It’s not so overdesigned for physically challenged kids that it discounts fully capable children. I believe it’s a little bit larger (than Miracle Playground) and has different play components.” The new playground at Emerald Fields has “no barriers,” thus allowing all children to play, Hahn said. “Everything is flush with the ground and has ramps,” he said. “The surfacing is a uni-

form, soft rubber surface. It provides fall protection. There are various play apparatuses and platforms with ramps leading to it. If you’re in a wheelchair or you just need a railing to assist, the overall design allows for those who have some physical limitations to still be in play. If you don’t have physical limitations, you’re still going to have fun.” Moving parts, lights and sounds also will be part of the new playground. “It’s also got components for sound and sight that flash and make noise (and) components that have movement to them,” Hahn said. “It’s not just climbing and sliding and swinging. There is other stimulus there for eyes and ears and things you move.” The public is invited to the park dedication.

Local events Boot camp to benefit student A charity boot camp slated for Saturday, May 21, will benefit Dublin Jerome High School student Mark Burkholder. The gym and personaltraining business at 5700 Perimeter Drive will donate proceeds from its annual charity boot camp to medical bills for Burkholder, who sustained a major head injury in a skateboard accident last fall. Burkholder returned home earlier this year and continues his recovery and rehabilitation. “We are thrilled to support Mark and the Burkholder family as they continue the difficult journey through Mark’s recovery,” The Fitness Edge owner Nate Traucht said in a news release from the business. “Mark is a very courageous young man. We are delighted to support him as he continues to work to regain his memory and motor skills.” The charity boot camp will run from 9:30 to 11 a.m. May 21 and will include a fitness class and silent auction. Burkholder will be on hand to help start the event. A minimum $25 donation is required to participate, and a kids camp will be held during the event. To register for the charity boot camp or to make a donation, visit thefitnessedge.cc. Previous charity boot camps held at The Fitness Edge have benefited breastcancer research and the Live Strong organization.

Carriers to lead food collection Members of the National Association of Letter Carrier will collect items for the Dublin Food Pantry May 14. The annual collection is part of a national effort that collected more than 6,200pounds of food for the Dublin Food Pantry last year. Letter carriers will pick up food left at mailboxes for the collection and take it to the Dublin Food Pantry. “The Letter Carriers Food Drive is tremendously helpful in stocking the pantry for the summer months, when schools and other service organizations which ordinarily conduct food collections are not in session,” said Linda Fisher, Dublin Food Pantry executive director, in a news release. “We are so appreciative of our generous community and the letter carriers for taking the time to collect this food for us.” The Dublin Food Pantry provides a five-day food supply to more than 200 families in the Dublin City School District, the release said. Items in need include dried beans, boxed potatoes, baked beans, cereal, pancake mix, syrup, jelly, canned fruit, crackers, macaroni and cheese, toothpaste, and smallsized diapers.

Event Officers will be honored May 9 In honor of National Police Memorial Week, the Dublin Division of Police will host its annual Police Memorial Service at 1 p.m. May 9 at the Justice Center, 6565 Commerce Pkwy. The ceremony that will honor local law-enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty and those who currently serve will feature a former Whitehall police officer as the guest speaker.

Eric Brill was shot in the line of duty, and the injury left him blind in one eye, ending his career in law enforcement. “Honoring officers is a tradition which goes back to the beginnings of our history,” Chief Heinz von Eckartsberg said in a news release from the city. “Dublin believes it is important members of our profession and the community take time to honor the personal sacrifices these officers have made.” National Police Memorial Week was established in 1962.

Delaware County

Developmental disabilities operating levy approved By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The five-year, 2.1-mill replacement operating levy for the Delaware County Board of Developmental Disabilities was approved by county voters on May 3. With all precincts reporting, 13,636 voted for they levy and 9,816 voted against it. Fifty-eight percent of voters were in favor of the levy. Voters have approved every request since the levy was introduced in 1981. Each levy has been for five years. “We’re appreciative. We’ve had a long and very positive relationship with county citizens and voters,” DCBDD superintendent Robert Morgan said, adding that the board would do its part to operate the levy funds efficiently. Morgan said the current levy that will expire this year has an effective collection rate of 2.09 mills. The replacement levy means an owner of a $100,000 home will

pay a few cents more annually in taxes for Developmental Disabilities than the $64.26 paid last year. Developmental Disabilities serves 2,051 individuals, and Morgan said Developmental Disabilities centers on providing individual care. Morgan said individual care could be as low as $50 to $100. A maximum of $15,000 in local funding can be spent on one individual. In those instances, individuals would then utilize Medicaid waivers. Thirty-seven percent of the total budget goes toward funding local individual services and matching Medicaid waivers. Morgan said that for the past two decades, enrollment has doubled every seven to eight years. Those under age 21 account for 81 percent of current enrollment. “We’re a very young county,” Morgan said. Morgan said staff salaries of DCBDD’s 90 employees represent 22 percent of the budget. Employee benefits and payroll taxes account for 9 percent.

A salary freeze took effect about 18 months ago. The top of the pay scale is no more than 30 percent above the base pay. Morgan said no staff reductions are planned at this point. “We have to deliver the services,” he said. “We can’t lay off staff and provide more services.” County auditor George Kaitsa notified Developmental Disabilities in January of a possible 5- to 10-percent decline in property values for next year, Morgan said. The current levy is slated to bring in $13,352,943 in revenue for 2011. At a 5-percent property value decline, the replacement levy will bring in $12,829,115 annually, an annual revenue loss of $523,827. At a 10-percent property value decline, the levy will bring in $12,261,392, an annual revenue loss of $1,091,550. Morgan said Developmental Disabilities will experience a 45percent cut in state funding. He said the agency didn’t know the extent of state funding cuts when it decided on its levy.

Voters approve Jerome Township fire levy Continued from page A1 has been organizing community outreach leading up to the election, said the fire department greatly appreciates the community’s vote of confidence. “We would like to thank the residents of Jerome Township for their vote of support and confidence this evening,” French said Tuesday night. “We will work hard and continue to provide the best fire and EMS service in a fiscally responsible manner.” The levy approval means that township homeowners will pay an additional 2.9 mills over the next five years, starting this year. That will equal an additional $88.81 cost per $100,000 of assessed property value for a levy that is expected to generate an estimated $588,835 annually. Township residents approved a 2.3-mill levy

in 1991 for fire service, along with a 10-mill levy in 1992. The 1991 levy is being collected at 0.9097 mill, and the 1992 levy is now being collected at 3.9554 mills, according to the county auditor’s office. French said the fire department’s goal will now be to get through the rest of this year before reevaluating what services could be reinstated the following year. “Our next step is to hold our breath on the state funding, on what happens with the (tangible personal property tax) issue, but we’ve been conservative this year with the budget, and the guys are working hard so that there are no overtime costs this year,” French said. “So we will hold our breath until next year, and when we get there, we can re-evaluate and look at getting back the second medic and the rescue service. Hopefully, next summer we can get that squared away.”

Delaware County voters OK 911 operating levy Delaware County voters on May 3 warmed to a levy without a tax increase, supporting the five-year, 0.45-mill renewal operating levy for the county’s 911 emergency communications system. There were 14,386 votes for the renewal levy and 7,957 votes against it. Sixty-four percent of voters were in favor of the levy. Residents had voted down the five-year 0.62-mill 911 levy in November. “We clearly understood the message from last November of no new taxes. We reduced the levy to provide for no new taxes. And I’m very pleased that the voters responded favorably to our actions,” Delaware Emergency Communications Operations director Bob Greenlaw told ThisWeek. The levy replaces the 911 levy that will expire this year.

COUNCIL Continued from page A1 Before sidewalk improvements start in neighborhoods, Hammersmith said, the city will send a letter to the homeowners association president. Door hangers also will be posted in the neighborhood, citing specific dates and times for sidewalk repairs. “The most effective means of communication is door hangers,” Hammersmith said. According to Hammersmith, sidewalks for repair are chosen based on an inventory of sidewalk deficiencies kept by the city. “We look at the worst and try to get them close together,” he said. Council member Michael Keenan said Dublin pays for sidewalk maintenance rather than levying the cost upon residents. “It is out of the usual and one of the benefits of living in Dublin,” vice mayor Amy Salay said. In other council news, 2011-12 goals were unanimously approved last week. Council’s previous goals included the need to “facilitate increased networking between business and government to better understand business needs, challenges and opportunities to optimize Dublin’s business climate,” develop a 21st-century learning environment and complete the Bridge Street corridor plan to provide a vision for the corridor. Three new goals for 2011-12 are as follows: • Create a community culture of health, wellness and work/life balance for those who work and live in Dublin using innovative, collaborative, community-based educational and motivational initiatives. • Build on the city’s existing practice of shared services by continuing to explore new partnerships with private, nonprofit and government entities, with a focus on services improvement and/or cost reduction. • Design and implement a citywide training and professional development program that reinforces the Dublin brand by ensuring that employees have access to the right resources, training and skill-improvement opportunities that maximize employee talents, foster a culture of innovation and promote excellence in customer service through a coordinated, multi-year employee-development strategy.

previously told Delaware City Council that if the levy wasn’t approved, the funds would have to come from somewhere else. “This is the basic cost to sustain what we have,” Vest said. “This is the bare bones.” County administrator Tim Hansley said if the levy didn’t pass, the county would consider putting it back on the ballot in November. “There’s no way I would recommend a penny less than we have now,” he said. “We trimmed it back to the bare minimum.” The county also could have charged the villages, townships and cities service fees to fund the budget, Hansley said. Taxes could have been raised someplace else to foot the bill, or other budgets could have been cut. The sheriff’s office and the county emergency medical service are the only two budgets with amounts large enough to fund county 911 services. The worst-case scenario, Hansley said, would have been if the county had to end 911 service completely, leaving the cities, villages and townships to fund their own services. He said this scenario would’ve been “at a much higher cost,” since each entity could potentially have its own service. ssole@thisweeknews.com

The renewal amount means a homeowner will pay at the same rate as the expiring levy: $13.68 for each $100,000 of residential valuation a year. The levy, which will raise $2.55 million annually, funds countywide 911 emergency dispatching; cell phone location service upgrades; dispatcher training for police, fire and medical responders; county, state and federal interoperable communications; and current levels of technology. Greenlaw told ThisWeek no new equipment is funded by the levy. “Status quo is what we’re funding,” he said. The department brings in about $3.6 million annually. The county 911 answers 10,000 calls for service each month, and average answer time is less than 10 seconds. The coverage area of 459 square miles has a population of 175,000. There are 24 dispatchers employed. Residents had voted down the five-year 0.62-mill 911 levy in November, and Greenlaw said he was shocked when the levy didn’t pass. He had been told that 911 levies always pass, but given how confused the voters were, the results weren’t surprising, he said. Gary Vest, county 911 board chairman and Powell police chief,

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio

But the truth is her calling card — a brilliant ear for improvisation — is a link to the days and names you studied in music appreciation class. Theme and Variations? Inventions? Cadenzas? All often the result of accepted “showing off” by the composer and/or performer. Montero — you may remember her performance at the Inauguration of President Obama — will perform with ProMusica Chamber Orchestra as well as a solo set Friday, May 6, as the feature piece of ProMusica’s “Rhapsody in Blue Spring Soiree.” Concert tickets are $80-$30, which includes the pre-concert reception.

Ohio Folk Festival is three days (May 6-8) of concerts, jam sessions, workshops, children’s

An event highlight in recent years is the Friday night “worst song in the world contest,” but fun and music are the order of the day all weekend long, as festival-goers are likely to hear ’60s protest songs, Celtic tunes and old English ballads, work songs, sea shanties and all sort of rootsy tuneage.

Cuco’s Taqueria serves up unbeatable values Because today is Cinco de Mayo, why not beat the burrito-buzzsawing crowds by igniting your fiesta well before noon? I’m not talking about drinking all day long (though I’m not ruling it out, either), I’m suggesting you jump-start your morning with a zesty and stunningly cheap Mexican breakfast at Cuco’s. Most people know Cuco’s as one of the best full-service Mexican restaurants

Chilaquiles at Cuco's Taqueria.

in Columbus, and it is certainly that. But the family- and party-friendly Cuco’s serves up some unbeatable first-meal values, too. I’ll admit at first it felt a bit odd settling into a roomy booth in the modest and amusingly Mexi-kitschy Cuco’s at 9 a.m. I’m so used to digging into their fresh chips and salsa and heck-yeah margaritas (the Original, on the rocks and with half the sugar is my local benchmark) By Jodi Miller/ThisWeek that lurking over eggs and diner-style coffee

(sometimes flavored with cinnamon) almost seemed surreal. So I ordered a Vampiro cocktail to get my mind right. Made with tequila, grapefruit soda and the bracing tequila chaser called sangrita, it tastes entertainingly citrusy, spicy, sweet and tart. Anyway, sucking on that Vampiro proved to be an inspired idea. So did ordering the smorgasbord-like El Tapatio platter ($6.25). Kinda like breakfast, lunch and dinner all on a single huge plate, it’s a phenomenal deal. I got three eggs over greasy; a generous mound of addictive Mexican hash (crispy fried potato cubes blended with lots of properly fat-rendered and zingy chorizo); two terrific barbacoa tacos fashioned with soft corn tortillas wrapped around spicy, juicy and super-tender beef; and rich refried beans laced with melted cheese. Equally giddy-making in variety and size and likewise providing killer value is the hog-out ensemble called Nuevo

Cuco’s Taqueria 2162 Henderson Road, Upper Arlington 614-538-8701 cucostaqueria.com

after the eggs in the previous dish (well, plus rice and beans — don’t think you’re getting off that easy here) by ordering the good Huevos Rancheros ($5.25). In general, Chilaquiles ($5) is a clever Mexican leftovers meal made by stewing yesterday’s tortillas with condiments and other flavor enhancers. At Cuco’s, this translated into a piquant, cooked salsa verde playing off of a fresh tomato pico de gallo plus three eggs (of course), cheese and sides of those irresistible breakfast potatoes and refried beans. For something a little more unusual, but still nice, try the Oaxaqeña ($6.75). This was three ample enchiladas crammed with scrambled eggs and spuds wholly slathered in a stout black bean sauce. Like all of the breakfasts at Cuco’s, it’s an incredibly generous serving of food and flavor for a mere pittance of pesos.

Amaneser ($7). The roll call on that one went like this: • Three fried eggs (because three’s better than two, right?) enticingly simmered in a zippy ranchero sauce then winningly plopped atop fried corn tortillas • Soupy, full-flavored black beans • What the menu calls bacon or sausage but happily turned out to be more of that well-done chorizo • Two big and very nice pancakes (dessert’s too often neglected in the morning, don’t you think?) that were light, had attractively crisp exteriors, were pleasantly flavored with vanilla and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Yeah, that’s a lot of food. For a more Check out the new Columbus-area dinmodest repast, you could just call it quits ing guide at www.ColumbusCrave.com

Chefs to converge on Audubon Center for fourth Taste event

By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek

Kevin Caskey, owner and chef of Skillet, puts raspberries on the raspberry panna cotta with lemon and rhubarb verbena. It is one of the dishes he is making for the Taste of Dine Originals event to be held May 12 at Grange Insurance Audubon Center.

Kevin Caskey can’t wait to show off his chops next week at the fourth annual Taste of Dine Originals. The chef and owner of Skillet in Schumacher Place will serve raspberry panna cotta with rhubarb and lemon verbena, along with some other creations. Caskey is among 50 chefs participating in the fourth annual event, to be held May 12 at the Grange Insurance Audubon Center, 505 W. Whittier St. He said he hasn’t participated for two years and is eager to get back. “It’s good exposure for our group as a whole,” he said. “We’re all independently owned restaurants, and we’re a diverse group. And in one night you can taste not only the food offerings but understand the concept and thoughts that went into the development of the restaurants that make up our group.” The gala will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. Tickets are $100 and can be purchased at www.dineoriginalscolumbus.com. Some tickets might be available on the day of the event and may be purchased at the door. Proceeds benefit Dine Originals Columbus and the Buckeye Ranch, which provides mental-health treatment and alcohol and drug services for children with behavioral or psychological and substance-abuse disorders. “We’re blessed to be part of the event for four years,” said Michelle Aro, development coordinator at the Buckeye Ranch. “The partnership we’ve built with the Columbus Dine Originals group has been fantastic. They’ve been a wonderful group to work with.” The event has been moved from the Smith Bros’ Hardware Co. building downtown because it simply outgrew the space, said

Katharine Moore, executive director of the local chapter of Dine Originals. The Audubon Center, on the Whittier Peninsula, provides a modern backdrop with attractive surroundings, she said. “We thought it really complemented our messaging and mission because they are green and our members have that commonality,” Moore said. “It’s such a beautiful oasis in downtown Columbus that people don’t know about. So it’s fun for us to introduce that venue to a whole new crowd. In addition to food, more than 30 vineyards will be represented, as well as local breweries and micro distilleries. One of those is Watershed Distillery, just outside Grandview Heights. “We are excited to be a part of it,” Greg Lehman, co-founder of the company, said of the celebration. “I think it’s a good way for us to be involved locally.” A silent auction will feature cooking lessons, private dinners, special events, art and rare bottles of wine. Moore said chefs look forward to showing off their talents and mixing with the crowd. “They have fun riffing off each other,” she said. “They’re very competitive on what they put out. But they’re there to talk to their customers in a way that they just don’t have the opportunity to on a busy Saturday night.”

Mother’s Day Brunch Sunday, May 8, 2011 Open from 11:00 am - 7:00 pm By Jennifer Noblit/ThisWeek

Seventh-graders Natalie Pettit (left) and Chloe Goodman help unveil the bullfrog statue in the courtyard at Grizzell Middle School last week. The statue, funded by the PTO, was put in place to honor the work of teacher Shawn Kaeser and students to have the bullfrog designated the state frog.

Statute honors ‘state frog’ effort JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A bullfrog was the guest of honor last week at Grizzell Middle School. On April 29, the school dedicated a bullfrog statue in the courtyard to honor the work of students and teacher Shawn Kaeser, who worked with the Ohio General Assembly to get the frog designated as Ohio’s state frog. The Grizzell social studies teacher began the quest in 2002 to get the bullfrog a little recognition. During a class scavenger hunt, Kaeser’s class realized Ohio didn’t have an official amphibian. The class settled on the bullfrog and has been working ever since to get the state designation. The quest gave Kaeser’s classes hands-on experience in the legislative process as they petitioned lawmakers each year. “It gave them ownership in the state and the process,” Kaeser said of the lesson.

The experience also included setbacks. Students would testify in favor of naming the bullfrog the state amphibian, but the general assembly would adjourn before the law would be passed. Some resistance came in 2009 from a Cleveland-area school that wanted the spotted salamander recognized. What Kaeser dubbed “the great amphibian compromise” settled the dispute, designating the bullfrog the state frog and salamander the state amphibian. “This is a great life lesson for students,” Grizzell principal Thom Jones said last week. “Each and every one of us can learn about persistence and not giving up.” The bill naming the bullfrog the state frog was signed in June 2010. “Honestly, some people in other school districts may see this and think it’s silly,” Superintendent David Axner said during the dedication. The process, however, has taught Kaeser’s students tenacity and persistence, Axner said, as

Assorted Garden Salads • Chicken Picatta Homemade Ravioli • Penne Pasta ala Vodka Sauce Homemade Sausage & Peppers Scrambled Eggs with Bacon Texas French Toast with Strawberries Truffle Smashed Potatoes Fresh Green Beans • Fresh Fruit • Assorted Dessert Table

well as the lesson that students can make a difference in the legislative process. “Shawn Kaeser is a teacher who makes it fun for students,” Jones said. “He truly tries to make education come alive.” The Grizzell PTO memorialized the effort of Kaeser and students with the bullfrog statue that was crafted by a Florida artist who specializes in zoo sculptures. During the dedication, Kaeser admitted he wasn’t sure how to feel with the experience behind him. “I don’t know if I’m happy or sad for this moment today,” he said. Despite conflicting feelings, Kaeser said, he knows the experience left an impression on students. “I’ve been talking to many former students this week who are out of college and married,” he said. “They’re all over the world, but they are definitely thinking of this moment today.”

Service projects, class coming to close By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers Over the past nine months, 26 students have been taking some hands-on lessons in service. The 2010-11 Leadership Dublin class will display completed community projects during the leadership and service program at 6:30 p.m. May 11 at the OCLC Conference Center, 6565 Kilgour Place. Along with learning about the community, leadership and service, Leadership Dublin students get direct experience via a service project. Because the Leadership Dublin program has been around for so long, organizations come to the group for help,

Leadership Dublin executive director Jan Walton Rozanski said. That means a service project for Leadership Dublin students. “They come to us,” she said. “After so many years, we have a reputation for doing good work, so organizations, usually nonprofits, come to us and ask if we would be able to help with a project.” This year’s teams focused on Dublin ACT (adolescents and community together), the Dublin farmers market, the Dublin Counseling Center and the annual Martin Luther King Jr. celebration. Chasity Kuttrus worked on Dublin’s MLK celebration. “Our goal was to create a sustainability plan for the MLK event in order

for it to continue in future years,” she said. “Basically, what’s been happening is, the event has been running for the past 10 years with a group of five volunteers. Five wonderful people have been coming together with really big hearts and no budget. They’ve been running this, and it’s been growing and expanding, and they’ve been doing it with little funding.” To help with the MLK event, Kuttrus said, her project group looked at local and national MLK events and ways to make the Dublin event sustainable. “We want to figure out, is there a way we can help form support and create a strategic plan to move forward,” she said. Although Leadership Dublin is coming to a close, Mark McCann said, he’ll

continue his work with Dublin ACT, which included the production of a public service announcement for radio and a sticker campaign to combat prescription drug abuse. “My experience with ACT is that they’re taking prescription drug abuse very seriously,” he said. “The rest of the world doesn’t realize what a sleeping giant it is. They’re taking on a huge problem and trying to solve it for Dublin.” Having a place to volunteer after Leadership Dublin is over is just one more lesson learned from the program, McCann said. “Dublin is a huge city, but it really runs on volunteers,” he said. “There are a lot of people at the professional level

and a lot of people that give back. Mr. (Yoshihiro) Hidaka, one of the business owners, and Cardinal Health are there all the time giving back to make Dublin and the world a better place. The biggest thing I’ve taken away is how much people give back.” Leadership Dublin teams will begin projects presentations at 6:30 p.m. May 11. Networking, drinks and appetizers will start the evening at 5:30 p.m. The public is invited. Leadership Dublin is accepting applications for the 2011-12 class.

Boys Tennis

Jerome earns first Cup title By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The champions of the Worthington Cup tennis tournament usually are the players who are strongest in all facets of their games that particular day. For Dublin Jerome High School’s Sean Stein, who won the doubles title with teammate Kent Seitz, that meant his kick serve was on target in the final on April 30 at Worthington Kilbourne. For Thomas Worthington’s Casey Cempre, who won the singles title, that meant the rediscovery of his backhand. “I’ve been really getting my kick serve in,” Stein said. “I’ve been working on that serve for the last 10 years and it’s probably the best part of my game. I can always rely on my serve.” Stein and Seitz used strong serving to defeat Gahanna’s Canyon Teague and Jesse Shivener 6-4, 6-3 to capture the doubles championship. Their title, coupled with Jerome’s Frank Kuo placing third in singles with an 8-1 win over Olentangy Liberty’s Vick Chhabria, gave the Celtics their first Worthington Cup championship. Jerome scored 15 points to finish ahead of Thomas (12), Liberty (11), Upper Arlington (11), Gahanna (8), St. Charles (7), Kilbourne (6) and Hilliard Davidson (4). Seitz and Stein hope to follow the path of UA’s Stu Little and Billy Weldon, who won the Worthington Cup last year and went on to win Division I sectional, district and state titles. The past two years, three of the top four finish-

Ian Burkhart works with Jerome freshman goalie Chase Rose during practice April 28. Burkhart, a former Jerome lacrosse player and a 2009 graduate, who was paralyzed June 13, 2010, after an accident while diving into the water at the Outer Banks in North Carolina.

Burkhart, Celtics help each other By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Most athletes would be honored if their former high school coach asked them to serve as an assistant for the program they came through, particularly one which has become as respected throughout the Midwest as the Dublin Jerome boys lacrosse team. Considering the situation involving 2009 Jerome graduate Ian Burkhart, his service this spring as the Celtics’ volunteer goalkeeper and defense coach has See TENNIS, page D2 meant so much more to just about every-

one involved. On June 13, 2010, Burkhart was left paralyzed after an accident at the Outer Banks in North Carolina and is confined to a wheelchair. Despite those limitations, Jerome coach A.J. Auld proposed the idea a few months ago that Burkhart could be an asset to his program, and thus far the results have been positive. In addition to helping lift the spirits of the 20-year-old who has had his life forever changed, Burkhart helped the Celtics take a 10-0 record into their game against Hilliard Davidson on May 3.

Included during the start was a 6-4 victory over 12-time Division I state champion Upper Arlington on April 27. Led by senior Nick Simonetti, the Jerome goalkeeper unit gave up an average of just 4.3 goals through 10 games. “A.J. approached me over the fall about coaching, and as soon as he said it, it felt like it would be a great thing to do,” Burkhart said. “It’s something I’ve always wanted to do. My freshman year in college was the first year that I didn’t (play lacrosse), and I wanted to get back out there and I just wanted to give back.” Burkhart was a part-time starter for the

Celtics as a junior before being their regular goalkeeper as a senior. Both seasons, Jerome was a Division I regional runnerup. As a freshman at Ohio University, Burkhart tried out for the men’s club team but was stuck behind several other experienced goalkeepers and did not play. His plan was to try out for the team again this season.

Fickell-Howard helps revive Coffman’s bats By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

By Eric George/ThisWeek

Coffman assistant Leah Fickell-Howard talks with Kaylie Schimming during a game April 28 against Hilliard Darby. Fickell-Howard is in her first season as an assistant coach with the Shamrocks.

Hitting was the Dublin Coffman High School softball team’s biggest weakness last season, as the Shamrocks had a .251 batting average. But under the guidance of firstyear assistant coach Leah Fickell-Howard, hitting has become one of the team’s biggest strengths, as the Shamrocks were batting .315 through 16 games. “Leah’s a great coach, and she deserves a lot of the credit for how much our hitting has improved this season,” coach Kevin Finan said. “The girls are a little stronger this year and teams may be scoring more runs now that the pitching circle has been moved back three feet, but Leah’s brought in some new ideas and that’s made the biggest difference in the way we’re hitting the ball.” During Finan’s first four seasons, the Shamrocks mostly hit off a tee or used a soft-toss batting practice technique, in which a player stands beside the batter and tosses the ball into the path of her swing.

But this season, Fickell-Howard convinced Finan to allow Coffman pitchers Linda Cardozo and Alex Meisner-Rathbun to pitch at full speed during batting practice in order to get the Shamrocks used to hitting live pitching. “The best way to practice hitting is against live pitching,” said Fickell-Howard, who pitched and played first base at Shawnee State University from 1994-97. “That’s something that I picked up in col-

lege. At Shawnee State, we hit live pitching every day and we were one of the best-hitting teams (in NAIA). In softball, you should be able to throw every day and not have a sore arm if your technique is right.” Fickell-Howard also throws batting practice for the Shamrocks, often calling out what type of pitch she is about to throw and instructing See SOFTBALL, page D8

Irish to face Gales in tournament opener By KURTIS ADAMS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Dublin Scioto High School baseball coach Patrick Elias will have some decisions to make when the Division I district tournament gets underway. The Irish, who are seeded 15th of 41 teams, will play host to Lancaster in the first round on Monday, May 9. The winner advances to play at third-seeded New Albany, which eliminated Scioto with a 5-3 victory in the second round a year ago, on Wednesday, May 11. One of the questions Elias must answer is, who does he pitch against Lancaster? The Golden Gales have struggled for much of the season, but they did defeat top-seeded Pickerington North 12-1 in six innings on April 28. “We’re certainly not going to be taking anything for granted,” said Elias, whose team was 1010 overall and 6-5 in the OCCCardinal Division before playing Dublin Jerome on May 3. “My personal belief is that you have to go with your ace in that first game. “We haven’t made a decision yet and we have three or four kids we could turn to and feel confident, but I’ve always thought it to be wise to go with your best.” That seemingly would put senior Kris Simonton on the mound

to pitch the Lancaster game. He split his first four decisions, but a shaky defense didn’t provide much support in several of his early starts. One of Simonton’s best outings was a combined six-hitter with Aaron Strausbaugh in a 31 victory over Westerville Central on April 18. Central is seeded fourth and also is playing in the same district bracket as Scioto. Simonton picked up his second victory when the Irish defeated Olentangy Liberty 8-3 on April 25. The win capped Scioto’s season-high six-game winning streak, which followed a 3-7 start. Dublin Coffman is seeded second, and the top five is rounded out by fifth-seeded Gahanna.

“We have an idea what our identity is now,” Elias said. “Early on, we weren’t pitching all that well and we weren’t fielding it all that well. Once we got that squared away, we started playing like we thought we were capable of.” Austin Mooney, who has benefitted from plenty of run support in the games he’s pitched, won his first three decisions while Strausbaugh started 1-2 with two saves. Phil Parrott had a 3-1 record after he and Strausbaugh combined on a five-hitter as the Irish completed the season series against Central with a 2-0 victory on April 21.

We’ve gotten our confidence back.” To win the Worthington Cup title, Seitz and Stein had to hold off Teague and Shivener, who defeated UA’s Weldon and Eric Vannatta 10-6 in the first round. “It’s definitely a big step. We’ve never been invited to the Worthington Cup in my four years,” Shivener said. “For us to come in and place second in the event definitely makes a statement.” “I just think we came ready to play,” Teague said. “We’ve been talking about the Cup for a while now. It’s my first time here and my first time playing with Jesse, and beating UA was pretty big for us.

Scioto pitcher Phil Parrott delivers a pitch April 29 against Jerome. The Irish open the Division I district tournament May 9 as host to Lancaster.

then-coach Scott Marple chose to pull the starting pitcher, 2010 graduate Charlie Sulich, in the top of the seventh inning after his pitch count exceeded 100. The Eagles then scored four runs to erase a 3-1 deficit. “Had we left Charles in, we very well might have won the game,” said Elias, who was an assistant at the time. “But we erred on the side of safety; we didn’t want to get anyone hurt.” The Irish were 17-8 entering that game, had already won a second consecutive OCC-Cardinal title and were the higher-seeded team. If Scioto and New Albany

meet again, the roles will be reversed. Entering the week, New Albany was 13-3 and leading the OCC-Capital. Its top pitchers are Wynston McMartin, who started 4-0, Demaree Parsons (2-1) and Shane Kriss (3-0 primarily in a relief role). “I know I’m glad we don’t have to play that first game,” said New Albany coach Bob Talpas, whose team has a first-round bye. Scioto’s offensive leaders through 20 games were Simonton (.500 batting average), Tyler Flaherty (.429, 17 RBI), Mooney (.410, 17 RBI) and Chase Thompson (15 RBI).

If Scioto wins its first two postseason games, it would play in a district semifinal on May 17. Central, which also has a first-round bye, could be a potential opponent in the district final on May 19. “We’re familiar with New Albany, and of course we know about Westerville Central having played them twice now,” Elias said. “They both have high-quality pitching. But we know we can’t look past Lancaster.” kadams@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Scioto pitchers coming through on offense, too By KURTIS ADAMS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Innings aren’t the only thing pitchers Mackenzie Nelson and Paige Heasley are contributing to the Dublin Scioto High School softball team. They’ve been among the offensive catalysts as well. Nelson, a sophomore, hit a home run as the Irish defeated Brookhaven 13-0 in five innings on April 21. She nearly had another one when her fly ball to left field hit the top of the fence but stayed in play in a 9-0 loss to Westerville Central in an OCC-Cardinal Division contest on April 29. Nelson was Scioto’s top hitter a year ago and batted .500 in league play. She was hitting a team-high .386 through 12 games this spring and hit two triples during the third inning of a 10-0 victory over Beechcroft on April 28. Coach Greg Menssen said Heasley, a junior, homered earlier in the season and was batting above .300. “They’re getting us some runs,” he said. “It’s always a bonus when your pitchers can give themselves some (offensive) support.” Nelson and Heasley are setting examples in other ways as well. “Both of them, they’re strong players and great kids, too,” Menssen said. “They’re kind of silent leaders, really.

Jerome getting healthy, hot at right time By FRANK DiRENNA

At a glance

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Dublin Jerome High School baseball coach Chris Huesman believes that when healthy, the Celtics can play with the elite teams in the state. As the Division I district tournament approaches, Jerome appears to be getting back to full strength. Senior captain Tim Noe, who sustained a concussion after colliding with teammate Garrett Couche in a game at Olentangy Liberty on April 14, was expected to return to the lineup this week. Couche, a senior, also missed time with a concussion sustained in the collision and returned to the lineup April 26 against Marysville. Junior right-hander Aaron Huesman, the coach’s son, missed nearly three weeks with tendinitis in his pitching arm. “We’re starting to get healthy,” coach Huesman said. “I’m not worried about our pitching, but we’re starting to get more solid defensively and once we start getting our confidence with the hitting we’re going to be a team that is going to be tough to beat.” The Celtics entered the week having won five of six games, including a three-game winning streak in the OCC-Cardinal Division. Jerome opens the district tournament by playing host to Briggs on Monday, May 9. The winner plays at sixth-seeded Hilliard Davidson in the second round on Wednesday, May 11. “We’re getting better,” Couche said. “The pitching is hanging in there and we have Timmy com-

Jerome’s lone setback of the week was a 5-2 loss to Dublin Coffman on April 28 in a game that was added to the schedule.

Dublin finishes in eighth place at Governor’s Cup By JARROD ULREY

At a glance

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

In the midst of a spring season in which numerous regattas throughout the Midwest were canceled or suspended before completion, the Governor’s Cup Regatta held April 30 on Griggs Reservoir gave central Ohio’s four crews a long-awaited opportunity to get in a full day of rowing competition. Dublin was forced to spend more time than usual preparing the course in the days leading up to the event, but girls coach Gina Crooks believes it was worth it. “I think every day last week we moved at least one tree out of the water,” Crooks said. “On (April 29) we moved three or four. We also had some issues with the water being high, but (April 29) was almost perfect. Luckily, we got everything done in time because it was scheduled to storm every day last week through last Thursday.” The Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club won its third consecutive Governor’s Cup, scoring 234.5 points as 18 teams scored. Westerville was second (172), Upper Arlington finished fourth (103) and Dublin placed eighth (44). Hilliard, which has only girls, did not score. •Despite having their team finish second and score in 12 events at the Governor’s Cup, Westerville boys and girls coaches Matt and Trish Chase believe there is work to be done over the coming weeks. Westerville next will compete in the Midwest Junior Rowing Championships on May 21-22 on Lake Harsha in Batavia, where it has aspirations of sending several boats to the US Rowing Youth Nationals in June. In the Governor’s Cup, the girls lightweight 8 (8 minutes, 5.64 seconds) and the girls second novice 8 (8:28.29) both were first. The girls first novice 8 (8:17.88), the boys lightweight 4 (7:07.11) and the girls first varsity 4 (8:17.97) all were second. The girls first varsity 4 featured Tatiana Lundstrom, Victoria Langwasser, Lindsey Brown, Ashley Bauer and coxswain Amanda Poll. Alex Sawatzki was coxswain for the girls lightweight 8 that finished first, although there were only two boats that competed in the final. “We felt good about getting sec-

Below are the recent results and coming schedule for the Dublin boys and girls rowing teams: April 22-23 — Cincinnati Invitational on Lake Harsha in Batavia was canceled because of bad weather April 30 — Finished eighth (44) in 18-team Governor’s Cup Regatta on Griggs Reservoir behind champion Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club (234.5) May 7 — Burgundy and Blue Youth Regatta on Great Miami River in Hamilton May 21-22 — Midwest Junior Rowing Championships on Lake Harsha. Qualifying boats advance to US Rowing Youth Nationals from June 1012 on Melton Hill Lake in Oak Ridge (Tenn.).

Dublin’s first varsity 4 team of Vinay Blaajl, Matt Minns, Brady Basham and Benjamin Cahallin compete April 30 at the Governor’s Cup.

ond place (as a program),” Trish Chase said. “Our novices did real well, but our heavyweight women did not fare so well.” “This weekend was a bit of a disappointment for the men’s varsity squad,” Matt Chase said. “After the regatta, all of the teams huddled up and said that hopefully we’ll become a rowing team now. Hopefully we can have some good weather, make up for lost time and get some boats into nationals.” Earlier in the week before the Governor’s Cup, Bauer and Ben Leonard from the boys team were chosen for the Junior National Team selection camp, which will be held for two weeks beginning June 14. The girls camp will be held in Princeton, N.J., and the boys camp will be in Kent, Conn. Each camp will consist of 36 athletes, of which 18 then will be selected for the Junior National team that will compete in the World Championships in England

this summer. •Upper Arlington girls coach Andy Wimmer was pleased with his team’s performance in the Governor’s Cup. The Golden Bears’first novice 8 was first (7 minutes, 44.15 seconds), the first varsity 8 was third (7:20.32) and the second novice 8 was third (8:49.82). Zoe Ribar stroked the first varsity 8 boat, which also featured Emory Bergdall,Ashley Williams, Olivia Miltner, Grace Tucker, Kate Lowes, Angelina Caradonna and Ceri Turner and coxswain Summers Hammel. “We were actually pretty pleased across the board,” Wimmer said. “The biggest thing is that it was our first actual full regatta. Our first varsity 8 finished third out of 17 entries, which is a pretty strong finish for us, and with our novice 8 boat, it was really just sheer domination. Our novice 8 boat completely ran away with it.”

For the boys team, the second varsity 4 was first (7:30.25), the second varsity 8 was third (7:00.74), the second novice 8 was fourth (8:37.62), the lightweight 8 was third (6:46.31), the first novice 8 was fourth (7:54.89) and the first varsity 8 was fifth (6:58.91). •Dublin was led in the Governor’s Cup by its girls second varsity 4, which finished first in 8 minutes, 26.03 seconds. Bailey Irelan stroked the second varsity 4, which also featured Tess Cassidy, Maddie Irelan and Maddie Irelan and coxswain Abbey Marsh. Placing fifth for the girls were the first varsity 8 (7:45.08) and the second varsity 8 (8:07.87). “We were not expecting such an awesome finish to (the second varsity 4),” Crooks said. “We had four out of our six varsity boats qualify for finals and we did have a couple of novice boats medal.”

For the boys team, the first novice 8 was third (7:54.56) and the lightweight 4 placed fifth (7:26.59). Griffin Fillman stroked the lightweight 4 boat, which also featured Luke Neuroth, Mac Workman, Spencer Grisvard and coxswain David Bellman. “I thought it went pretty well,” boys coach Jared Crooks said. “Our lightweight 4 made it to finals and then finished fifth out of 18 entries. We set a goal of making it to the finals, and we made that goal.” •Hilliard will compete in its final regatta of the spring on Saturday, May 7, when it travels to Hamilton for the Burgundy and Blue Youth Regatta. The squad had three boats compete but did not score. The first varsity 8 was fifth (8 minute, 18.67 seconds) in the third heat, the first varsity 4 was fifth (9:54.33) in the third heat and the novice 4 was third (10:11.64) in

Flight 1. Senior Paige Holcomb stroked the first varsity 8 and the first varsity 4, and junior Jessica Takos stroked the novice 4. According to coach Jackie Ruetenik, senior Morgan Staric has been a strong leader this spring. “We had an injury and had to have a coxswain row in two of our races,” Ruetenik said. “We didn’t do well, but I was pleased with their attitudes. Morgan Staric has been really great and really invested. She’s got a great attitude. It helps me a lot that she can kind of direct them and help with what we’re doing in practice.” Because of the wedding photography business that she and her husband, Doug Trieber, run, Ruetenik said she won’t be coaching the team next year. Caitlin Flowers, a former rower for Marietta College who has been assisting this spring, is expected to take over. julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Commentary

New Albany’s Cordell takes aim at state record in 800 For an athlete who didn’t like running when she started competitively at age 9, Taneisha Cordell has developed into an elite competitor. The New Albany High School senior, who will run track at the University of Miami (Fla.) beginning next year, has the fastest area time to this point in the season in both the 400 meters and her specialty, the 800. She had the fourth-fastest time in the country in the 800 in the winter indoor season and, after finishing fourth in the Division I state meet as a freshman, she won the 800 as a sophomore at Reynoldsburg before transferring to New Albany. Cordell also won the 800 at the USA Track & Field meet last summer in Sacramento, Calif. Talk about credentials. “My mom got me into running when I was in elementary school and I really wasn’t very good and I was a basketball girl so I wasn’t even really interested,” Cordell said. “Through lots of hard work and dedication and lots of support from my teammates, my family and my coaches, Denny Hammond at Rey-noldsburg and Otis Winston here at New Albany, I have been fortunate to be successful. Like lots of athletes, I owe so much to so many people and right now I owe so much to coach Winston. He has definitely been a major factor in my life and we have a great relationship.” Even though Cordell has been sensational this spring in the 400, her specialty still is the 800. She loves the challenge of that event. “The 800 isn’t too short and it isn’t too long,” Cordell said. “I look at that race as a measuring stick for toughness. Anyone can sprint, but in the 800 it becomes which runner is the gutsiest in the last part of the race and who can finish at the fastest pace. “Like most young runners, I started as a sprinter at Reynoldsburg Junior High, but at the end of my seventh-grade year I began running the 800 and have never stopped. When I finished fourth in the state as a freshman it boosted my confidence, and winning the event the next year was the most ex-

citing sports moment of my life because I was part of a state championship team at Reynoldsburg and it was the end of an amazing season. “Last year was a major disappointment at the state championship meet. I had illnesses with a sinus infection last spring LARRY and my confidence was down LARSON when I ran in the 800 final. Then I fell with about 150 yards left in the race and didn’t finish, which makes me more determined than ever to get my title back this year. I think about it all the time.” Cordell not only wants to win the 800 state title, she wants to do it in convincing fashion. “Not only do I want to get my 800 title back, I want to do it by demolishing the state record,” she said. “I want to get to 2:08 or better and that pushes me all the time in practice, and what will probably determine my success will be my mental attitude. When I go into big races, I tell myself that I can achieve my best, and when I won in California at the nationals last summer, it felt amazing and I strive to achieve that feeling again. “I have grown to really love track. I love the freedom you get when you are out on the track. It is so much about you and how you have trained and how you have used the support you have received. Running is fun and what a chance it has given me to meet people all over the world. It has opened so many doors for me and it has given me the confidence I need to do well in life. Through sports you learn to not get discouraged and to use anything negative that happens for motivation to get better. I love to race and have great respect for everyone that competes with me.” Those who have watched Cordell run this year can tell you that she has plenty of competition — it’s just usually running behind her.

LACROSSE Continued from page D1 Burkhart, used when talking about the emotions that have occurred for the Burkhart family over the past several months. Ian had just completed his freshman year at Ohio University and was with friends when the unexpected occurred. Excited to see the ocean, he ran and dived head-first into the water, hitting an unseen sandbar that was only a few feet deep. He lost feeling from his neck down and immediately was transported to a hospital in Norfolk, Va. Marshall, who is a junior on the Johns Hopkins University men’s lacrosse team and was taking summer classes in Baltimore, immediately drove to be at his brother’s side. Their parents and other two siblings arrived shortly after. Surgeries revealed that Ian had injured the C5 and C6 vertebrae on his spinal cord. He now has movement in his hands and upper body. “The true strength of a family kind of shines through in the toughest moments,” Marshall said. “I was only about six hours away so I drove down there to see him before he went to surgery. I can’t say enough about the way he’s handled himself.” There have been several fundraisers since the accident to help the Burkharts financially. Last August, Jerome held a dodgeball tournament to benefit Burkhart. A fundraiser also was held at Brookside Golf and Country Club last September, and Jerome United Methodist Church donated some of the proceeds of its 175th anniversary celebration last October. With some of the money raised, the family has been able to buy a van with a handicappedaccessible ramp. On most days, senior John Horner or one of Jerome’s coach-

At a glance es picks up Ian and takes him to practice or games. “I’ve got really good strength in my arms now, but I have no dexterity in my wrists,” Ian said. “I do therapy three times a week. It’s more of a challenge not being able to show (the goalkeepers), but there’s definitely a lot I can do to help them out.” Mark Burkholder, a sophomore at Jerome who also formerly played lacrosse, suffered a head injury in a skateboarding accident Aug. 27 and is still recovering. On Dec. 29, the Jerome lacrosse program organized “Shots for Mark & Ian” to raise money for the medical expenses of Burkhart and Burkholder. “It’s been awesome when you realize how strong Dublin is as a community,” Ian said. Over Christmas break, Johns Hopkins men’s lacrosse coach Dave Pietramala proposed an idea to Marshall Burkhart about doing something special for Ian at one of the Blue Jays’ games this spring. On April 23 for Johns Hopkins’ game against Navy, Ian Burkhart led the team onto the field for warmups and served as an honorary captain. All of the team’s coaches and players wore T-shirts that said “IB 13” on the front and “family” on the back. The “IB 13” represented Burkhart’s initials and the No. 13 that he wore as a lacrosse player for Jerome. The Blue Jays, who were ranked sixth in the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse RPI rankings as of April 28, won the game 14-5.

“I think Ian said it best when he said that it was the best day of his life since his accident,” Ian’s father, Doug Burkhart, said.

A ‘PRETTY NATURAL’ FIT Watching Ian Burkhart contribute from the sidelines is something that Auld believes has been inspirational and fruitful for the Celtics this spring. “His predicament aside, he’s just a great guy,” Auld said. “You see a guy go through a life-changing event like that and the way he conducts himself, he’s the same Ian. It’s certainly a challenge for him, but he still keeps fighting through. It’s more of a thing that we just enjoy having him around.” “He’s been through the program for four years of his life, so with him being a part of big games, it helps with everything we do in terms of preparation for games,” Horner said. “He’s been helping our goalies, and knock on wood, our goalies are having a good year. One of the things everybody loves about Ian is that since we all know him on a personal level, it makes him easy to talk to. He’s fresh out of this program, so everybody can really connect with him.” Marshall Burkhart believes his brother’s “stubborn” attitude helps show Jerome’s goalkeepers the attitude they need to have on the field. “I’ve known him all of my life, and he’s been a good friend and mentor to me,” Simonetti said. “It seems pretty natural for him to help us. He knows a lot about

lacrosse and he’s helped me out a lot with positioning and changing my stance.” The Celtics lost their first six meetings against Upper Arlington, but their win over the Bears this spring gives Ian Burkhart hope that the team has another state-title run ahead. Jerome, which was 3-0 in the OCC-Buckeye Division before facing Davidson, won the Division II state title last fall. Its previous title came in 2005 when it

won the Division I-B championship. Marshall Burkhart was a freshman on the 2005 team. Watching players such as Simonetti excel has been among the things that have lifted the spirit of Ian Burkhart, who is planning to re-enroll in college in the fall. As a student at Ohio University, he was majoring in video production. “With spinal-cord injuries, it’s kind of a shot in the dark whether

any movement will come back, and most doctors won’t say anything because they don’t want to set you up for failure,” Ian Burkhart said. “You just have to work with what you have. It’s a little bit of a struggle sometimes, but my perspective is that I don’t want to waste my time. You just have to deal with it and make the best of life.” julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

SOFTBALL Continued from page D1 the batter on how to hit it. “My goal is to get them used to hitting all different kinds of pitches so that they will have the confidence and experience to do it in games,” Fickell-Howard said. Before home games, the Shamrocks hit off tees and against a pitching machine, practice bunting and use a front-toss technique, in which a pitcher throws a pitch and then steps behind a net to avoid getting hit by the ball. Senior Rachel DeRosa, who was batting .462 through 16 games, said Fickell-Howard’s ideas are paying dividends. “We used to just take 10 to 12 soft-toss reps before games and that was it,” DeRosa said. “Now we do a lot of new hitting routines, and everyone’s hitting the ball with more confidence.” Fickell-Howard has an extensive softball background, as she earned four varsity letters at DeSales before graduating in 1993. At Shawnee State, she helped lead the Bears to four Mid-South Conference championships and received NAIA All-American Scholar Athlete honors on the Bears’ 1996 national runner-up squad. Fickell-Howard was an assistant at DeSales in 1998 and ’99 before serving as an assistant at Morehead State in Kentucky in 2000. From 2001-05, she was coach at DeSales before moving to Bangkok, Thailand, to teach at the Thai-Chinese International School for the 2005-06 school year. She returned to central Ohio to

teach and coach at Hamilton Township for the 2006-07 school year but did not coach from 2008-10. “Leah was looking to get back into coaching and after interviewing her for about five minutes, I said, ‘Will you please come coach here?’” Finan said. “She’s a bulldog like I am, but she takes a positive approach to the game and the kids love playing for her.” Fickell-Howard, who became a mother last September with the birth of her daughter, Shay, remains close to her brothers, Luke and Mike Fickell. Luke Fickell, a 1992 DeSales graduate, played football at Ohio State from 1992-96, where he was a four-year starter at nose guard. He has been an assistant under Jim Tressel since 2002 and is currently the Buckeyes’co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. He will serve as the Buckeyes’ head coach for the first five games of the 2011 season in place of Jim Tressel, who will be serving a suspension. “I’m real proud of Luke and I’m excited for him, but he’s the same old guy I’ve known my

whole life,” Fickell-Howard said. “We’re both coaches, but he’s coaching on a completely different level, so we don’t really talk about it. He’s around football 24/7, so the last thing he wants to talk about is football. He has four children of his own and I have a baby now, so we mostly talk about our kids.” The Shamrocks, who have struggled with untimely errors this season, will open the Division I district tournament on Tuesday, May 10, at Olentangy Liberty. The winner plays at Grove City in the second round on May 12. Last year, Coffman lost to Kilbourne 11-9 in the first round of the tournament. “We’ve struggled this year, but the teams who have played us know that we’re dangerous,” Finan said. “We’ve blown some games that we could have won, but we shocked Worthington Kilbourne by beating them (4-2 on April 15), and we’re capable of shocking more teams in the tournament.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
