Walmart’s fate rests with city council By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Westerville City Council will make the final decision on whether The Hadler Cos. can tear down three storefronts in its Westerville Square shopping center to construct a 108,000-square-foot Walmart. The Westerville Planning Commission voted 6-0 on April 27 to declare the proposed changes to the shopping center a major modification, meaning that city council will have to vote on the matter. The commission also voted 5-1 to recommend that council approve The Hadler Cos.’ application, as long as any outstanding issues the city has with the plans are resolved. Commission member Amy Koorn cast the lone dissenting vote and member Brian Szuch was absent.

Senior planner Bassem Bitar said the earliest the case would go before council is May 17 but a date has not yet been determined. In addition to constructing a small-scale Walmart store, The Hadler Cos. plans to renovate the rest of the 48-year-old shopping center to match the newly built storefront. Since the proposal was presented at the March planning commission meeting, The Hadler Cos. altered the design to create a more traditional entrance to Walmart to tie in to the rest of the center, changed sheet-metal roofing to shingles to create a warmer color scheme and moved a rear loading bay so that it would tie in better with the structure and be better hidden from view. The company’s new plans show a 10-foot masonry wall with a brick finish along the north edge of the property that will serve to block sounds from the center to Sugar Grove, the retirement

center to the north. The Hadler Cos. also committed to renovating outparcels along Schrock Road, which now include a Taco Bell and a Goodyear tire store, within 18 months of earning approval to renovate the center. The site’s third outparcel, Lucky House, has a lease through 2017, and The Hadler Cos. said it will commit to renovating the restaurant within a year of that lease being up.

Planning commission members continued to have concerns over the company’s plans, however. “My biggest concern is traffic,” said councilwoman Diane Fosselman. “I’m still disappointed that we have the same number of curb cuts.” The site plan for the center shows all eight curb cuts being maintained, though The Hadler Cos. has See WALMART, page A2

WARM to offer summer lunch for children By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

More children will be able to enjoy hot lunches during the summer months, thanks to a partnership forged by the Westerville Area Resource Ministry (WARM), Mount Carmel St. Ann’s Hospital and Westerville City Schools. WARM has created the Westerville Area Lunch Club, which will serve lunch will each weekday as part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Summer Food Ser-

vice Program. The additional funding needed for the program has been donated by St. Ann’s, said WARM program coordinator Deb Wallace, and Westerville City Schools will prepare the food. With no kitchen, WARM has never been able to provide meal service, but providing summertime lunches to children has long been a goal for the organization, Wallace said. “This is a big new venture for us,” she said. “It’s been on the dream list of director Scott Marier for a number of years. It’s been in the

planning process for him for a long time.” Though serving lunch sounds easy enough and the program receives funding from the government, there still is a great effort and a considerable cost involved in organizing a Summer Food Service Program. “You would think that would be simple enough to do and that is why there are not more of these programs around in our communities,” Wallace said. “It’s really expensive to do this and comply with all of the manSee LUNCH, page A3

Westerville City Schools treasurer Scott Gooding announced his resignation April 29. Gooding, who has served as the district’s treasurer since June 2004, will take a position with the Educational Service Center of Central Ohio. His last day with the district will be May 16. Until then, or until the district names an interim treasurer, Gooding will continue to perform dayto-day tasks and the duties that only treasurer can do under state law, such as signing payroll checks. The Westerville school board held a special meeting May 2 to accept Gooding’s resignation. School board president Kristi Robbins said the board is prepared to act quickly to name an interim treasurer, as the board and the administration had been aware for some time of Gooding’s desire to seek a position outside the district. “Scott has been very forthcoming in terms of letting us know that he was thinking of leaving,” Robbins said. “We have had some contact with people who have been

interims in the past and do that for a living and have good experiences as previous treasurers of larger districts.” Robbins said some board members will meet with candidates for interim treasurer this week. The goal is to name an interim treasurer quickly and then begin to search “in earnest” for a permanent treasurer, she said. Because the district is about to enter into its annual budget process, the board is looking outside the district for someone with extensive experience working for a large district, Robbins said. If the district is in a position to do so after this week’s interviews, Robbins said, the board could take action to approve an interim treasurer as early as the May 9 work session. As for the search for a permanent treasurer, Robbins said the district already has reached out to professional groups who help recruit school district treasurers to ask for contract proposals. The board plans to contract with one of those groups to secure the See GOODING, page A3

Delaware County voters approve 911, developmental disabilities levies By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers 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 voted down a fiveyear 0.62-mill 911 levy in November.

“We clearly understood the message from last November of no new taxes,” said Bob Greenlaw, Delaware Emergency Communications Operations director. “We reduced the levy to provide for no new taxes and I’m very

pleased that the voters responded favorably to our actions.” The levy replaces the 911 levy that will expire this year. The renewal amount means a homeowner will pay at the same rate as the expiring levy: $13.68 per $100,000 of residential valuation a year.

As for the five-year, 2.1-mill replacement operating levy for the Delaware County Board of Developmental Disabilities, county voters approved the issue by a significant margin. With all precincts reporting, 13,636 See COUNTY, page A7

Planning commission OKs initial condo plans By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Developer Romanelli and Hughes can move forward with plans to construct an 18-unit condominium complex at the southeast corner of County Line Road and North State Street. The Westerville Planning Commission on April 27 approved a preliminary site plan and rezoning of the 3.8 acres to the east of 372 N. State St. A final site plan still must be approved by the city. Transitioning the site to a multifamily condominium development fits within the parameters of the North Westerville Plan, said planning administrator Rich Kight. However, Kight said, the city’s planning staff was left with two concerns: the relationship of the development to the stream that borders the site to the south, which is prone to flooding and erosion, and the impact of the development on the tree canopy of the heavily wooded site. An engineering study of the stream and of its 100-year flood plain helped to alleviate concerns about the impact of development on the stream, Kight said. The condo units will be well outside the flood plain, the plans show a retention pond to help slow stormwater runoff and Romanelli and Hughes has allowed for a conservation easement, Kight said. There’s concern over the trees because the city considers the site to be “heavily wooded,” with 79 percent of it covered by trees. With that distinction, city code requires developments to keep 40 percent of the existing tree canopy and then replant with shade trees after construction to bring the site back to its current tree coverage, Kight

said. “The development is not able to meet that standard,” Kight said. Romanelli and Hughes’ plans show only 23 percent of the existing tree canopy would be kept and evergreen trees and ornamental trees, in addition to shade trees, would be planted to restore the existing tree canopy, Kight said. Some of the concerns were relieved after the city’s forester toured the site and determined that the quality of the existing trees is poor, with many infested ash trees located on the site, Kight said. “It’s not the greatest woods,” he said. “We think the replanting is probably a good thing in this case.” David Fisher, the attorney representing Romanelli and Hughes, said the condominiums will be at or above the quality of the condominiums in surrounding developments and will be priced between $250,000 and $350,000. The 18 units will be housed in nine buildings. Residents of the nearby condominium complexes spoke during the public hearing to express their concerns on traffic, on the loss of the tree canopy and about having another condominium complex in the area. Phyllis Pirie, who lives in the

complex that abuts the site to the east, said she sees many condominiums for sale during her daily walks. “I can easily spot seven units for sale that have been on the market for quite a while,” Pirie said. “It’s not a service to the people there to add 18 more units.” Larry Shaw, who lives in the same condominium complex, said County Line Road is a busy road that already sees accidents for those turning into and out of the streets near State Street. Adding an additional road to accommodate the new condominium complex would only make the area more dangerous, he said. “There are going to be accidents if that curb cut is approved and they’re going to be severe,” Shaw said. Kathy Cheney said she’s concerned that mature shade trees will be torn down and replaced with ornamental trees and evergreen trees. “These aren’t shade trees. That’s not canopy,” she said. Planning commission members questioned the traffic concerns but Kight said the intersection of County Line Road and North State Street is considered to be safe by the city and the development will not add a significant volume of traffic. The commission approved the proposal, asking that the developer look to keep as many trees as possible and that signage be included on the bike path that follows County Line Road and within the development to make the entrance to the development as safe for pedestrians as possible.

WALMART Continued from page A1 committed to paying for the city to install medians along Schrock Road and Otterbein Avenue that would force turns to the center to be right-in and right-out only. Commission chairman Gerald Domanik said he’s concerned about the fact that Walmart maintains that it will not come into the center unless the store is permitted to have a 24-hour operation. “In my heart, I can’t believe that that has to be a 24-hour operation,” Domanik said. “I just don’t see it with all the residential that surrounds there.” David Berger said the plan still has loose ends that will need to be tied up with members of council before it can be approved. “We’re not there yet on the traffic and access points,” he said. “We’re almost there on the architecture.” To alleviate concerns about traffic, The Hadler Cos. president George Hadler has pledged $50,000 toward the construction of a right-turn lane eastbound on Schrock Road. However, the city’s engineer has estimated the cost to be $250,000. Hadler said his company would work with the city engineer to determine the specifications for the turn lane and to find an accurate price for the addition. Hadler said he also would continue to work with the city to resolve any other issues that would stand in the way of approval for the plans. “I’m pushing every budget we’ve ever dreamed about with concessions,” he said. “If this is turned down, we can’t afford to do anything but sit on this center the way it is now.” A small group of residents spoke during the public hearing on the case, with some supporting the overhaul of the center and others expressing their concerns about the traffic and noise that would be generated by a big-box retailer in the plaza. Larry Stember said he’s lived in Westerville since 1960 and he remembers when Westerville Square was a bustling shopping center that attracted patrons. “This was a lively, vital shopping area. It just died,” Stember said. “I’d welcome Walmart coming in and bringing it back to life.” Beckey Cheney, who lives on South Otterbein Avenue near the center, said she’s worried about customers coming to a Walmart exacerbating the already troublesome traffic issues in the area. “I think this tenant is just too big,” Cheney said. “This area already has traffic issues.”

Continued from page A1 dates and requirements that are legitimate requirements, but it’s just really difficult to do and expensive.” Without the funding from Mount Carmel St. Ann’s and the support of the school district, Wallace said, the program would not be possible for WARM. “It’s a true collaboration between the schools, our school district, Mount Carmel St. Ann’s, a business, and WARM, a nonprofit organization,” she said. “This community is very driven to pool resources and collaborate for the benefit of our community.” From June 13 to Aug. 12, lunch will be served between 11:45 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., rain or shine, at the shelter house at Ridgewood Park, 5402 Buenos Aires Blvd. Meals will be available on a first-come, first-served basis to children ages 1 through 18. Following lunch, volunteers will lead children in sports or activities and a book group, Wallace said. “We are wrapping recreation and a light educational program

around it to make it interesting for kids to come,” Wallace said. Details for specific programs are still being worked out but Wallace said WARM is working to get representatives from educational groups, such as the Columbus Zoo or the Humane Society, to make presentations. The amount of meals available will be dictated by demand, Wallace said, but the program will be able to accommodate a large number of children. “I would love to see 100 children a day attend our program,” she said. “Whether that actually happens, I don’t know. “I would be happy as a clam to have 50. In my dreams, I would like to see 100.” No enrollment for the program is necessary, so children can show up any day to receive a free meal. They do not have to be accompanied by a parent. Wallace said WARM still needs volunteers to help serve lunch each day. Those interested can contact her by calling the WARM office at (614) 899-0196. jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Continued from page A1 next treasurer, Robbins said. The board is eager to have a permanent treasurer in place, Robbins said, but members know how important it is to find the right candidate. “There is urgency there, but we want to be mindful that we want to select the right person for the job, for the district,” she said. “We just have to make sure that we’re making a good decision in terms of choosing a highly qualified candidate for the position. It’s a hard time for every school district in Ohio and we need strong leadership at this time.” Gooding will be missed by the district, Robbins said, particularly for his ability to communicate complex financial details to the board and to the public. “One of the things that I really truly appreciate about Scott is that he’s able to communicate well with the public in terms of taking difficult financial information and drilling down to be able to help people understand,” Robbins said. jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

MOTHER’S DAY VISIT OUR STORE TO FIND THE PERFECT GIFT

As it were

The city itself is the single monument to Joel Wright He is one of the more elusive men in the story of Columbus. Joel Wright is also one of the more important ones. Because of Wright, the whole downtown of Columbus is where it is, is named as it is and is laid out on lines that are still followed today. Yet there is no picture, no portrait, no sketch of this remarkable man. Wright was a member of the Society of Friends, called Quakers, and most of these people shunned pictures as a waste of time and effort. Because of the memories of his friends and acquaintances, we know a little bit about him. He was tall and strong and generally quite fit. He wore the long plain coat of the Quakers, with its large pockets with flaps folded over. He sported knee-length stockings and plain leather shoes. Both the buckles at his knees and on his shoes were made of silver and were a modest display of the success he had made of himself in Ohio. Born in 1750, Wright had missed most of the American Revolution and became known as a man who provided his own passage. Wright was a surveyor and by definition one of the few literate and well-read men in an often illiterate frontier society. In the years after the American Revolution, he spent most of his time surveying the upper reaches of the Scioto, Muskingum and Miami rivers. He also was a town planner and helped lay out Dayton, Ohio, and Louisville, Ky., among other places. After the death of his wife, Wright decided to follow his grown children into the Ohio country and eventually came to call the area around Waynesville his home. In spring 1812, he was called from southwest Ohio to do once more what he did best, only this time with even more attention to detail. Ohio in 1812 was a state in search of itself. Established in

1803, Ohio was the first state carved out of the Northwest Territory that had become a section of British ED America in 1763 and part LENTZ of the newly established United States in 1783. A nation mired in debt and with little income used this vast expanse of land to pay its soldiers’ pastdue wages. It sold the remaining land to anyone who wanted to buy. Ohio became the site of immense land grants to people from north and south, as well as people burned out by the British and even a colony of expatriate French settlers. The land immediately across the Scioto from frontier Franklinton was called the “High Banks opposite Franklinton at the Forks of the Scioto known as Wolf’s Ridge.” Most of the land, from Fifth Avenue on the north to Refugee Road on the south, was set aside for residents of Nova Scotia who had lost property because they had favored the American cause. Desperate for support, many of these people sold their land warrants to speculators and never came to Ohio. Some of the few who did settled near Broad Street and named their home after the place they left: Truro Township in Nova Scotia. By 1812, much of the land on that ridge opposite Franklinton still was empty. As such it became a place to examine as Ohio began looking for a new state capital. The first capital was at Chillicothe, a town along the Scioto River. Unlike the river towns of Marietta and Cincinnati, Chillicothe was a small frontier village and representative of the common people who were settling the new land.

Responding to requests for a more northern location, the capital city had been located briefly in Zanesville before being moved back to Chillicothe. In February 1812, after looking at many sites, the Ohio General Assembly chose the High Banks opposite Franklinton as its new home. Joel Wright came from southwest Ohio to carve that new capital city from the wilderness. Working with local surveyor Joseph Vance, Wright laid out the town of Columbus in April 1812. He picked the site of Statehouse Square and a 10-acre site for a penitentiary, as well, where the Cultural Arts Center is today. He later filed a report with the general assembly, listing all of his expenses, including the $2.43 for his journey to central Ohio. All of his expenses, including his trip home, came to $17.62. It is probably fair to say in retrospect that Ohio got its money’s worth. By June 1812, the first sale of lots occurred. James Kilbourne of Worthington paid $1,000 for a corner lot at Broad and High, and other nearby lots went for several hundred dollars each. Sales slowed when it was later learned that America had gone to war with Britain on the same day, June 18, that the sale had been held. Wright returned to Columbus in 1813 to oversee the construction of the penitentiary. When it was under way, he resigned his position as “director of Columbus.” He went home and lived in the Quaker community of Springboro until his death in 1829. There is no statue of Joel Wright in Columbus, and Wright would have been appalled if one had been erected. The capital city was his monument and a source of pride to him.

Goodwill agencies to celebrate anniversary Auction 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

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 bar-

riers 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.

Chamber to hold election academy By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Westerville Area Chamber of Commerce is aiming to empower more residents to run for local offices by arming them with information. The chamber will hold its fourth election academy this June. The academy, which is open to anyone, will feature speakers who have experience running for office or helping run campaigns. “This is just an exploration. Come to these three sessions and you’ll get a feel for what this is all about, and then you can decide” whether to run for office, said chamber president Janet Tressler-Davis. The academy, subtitled “See How They Run,” will be held from 6:45 to 9 p.m. June 2, 9 and 14. The first session, titled “Gearing Up,” will inform participants of all of the paperwork and preparation that needs to be done before officially entering a campaign. The second session will be “Running a Winning Campaign” and the third will be “Running the Race.”

Some of the speakers scheduled to participate in the academy include Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted; Dennis Stapleton, president of the Delaware County Commission and former Ohio House representative; and attorney Joe Barone, who has served as treasurer of several local campaigns. The final session will include a reception, during which academy participants will be able to talk to local leaders about their experiences running for office. In addition to talking about filing procedures, the academy also will cover such topics as campaign ethics, fundraising, campaign strategies, candidate forums, recruiting and organizing volunteers and finding a campaign treasurer. The chamber created the academy eight years ago following a local city council race in which all of the candidates ran unopposed, Tressler-Davis said. “With a population of 37,000, we really wanted to see more people (running),” she said. The chamber has run an election acade-

my every other year since to correspond with both school board and city council elections. Some of the people who have gone through the academy include Ohio Rep. Anne Gonzales (R-Westerville), school board members Kristi Robbins and Cindy Crowe, city council members Bill Highfield and Larry Jenkins and Mayor Kathy Cocuzzi, TresslerDavis said. This year’s academy is being held in partnership with the Delaware Area Chamber of Commerce in hopes that it will be able to attract more people and appeal to candidates who may be interested in running for office at the county level, Tressler-Davis said. The cost of admission to participate in the academy is $60 for the first person from a campaign team and $25 for an additional person from the same campaign team. Those interested in participating can contact the chamber at (614) 882-8917 or visit the chamber’s website at www.westervillechamber.com.

Art league

Annual exhibit highlights Westerville artists By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

More than a dozen local artists will share their works this month at Gallery 202, 38 N. State St. The Westerville Art League’s annual spring show includes 34 pieces that will be on display at the gallery through May 31. A reception for the artists, which is open to the public, will be from 6 to 8 p.m. May 7. The reception will feature refreshments and a drawing for door prizes. Awards will be handed out as determined by Robert Robbins, a professor of fine arts at the Columbus College of Art and Design. He will serve as judge for this year’s show.

Robbins will select the top three works and name honorable mentions to earn cash prizes. Gallery owner Renee Kropat said most of the works on display for this year’s show are paintings and drawings, though she said there is one sculpture. “Most of them are acrylics, oils, watercolors; there are colored pencil drawings and pastels,” Kropat said. The works focus on the outdoors, she said, and most fall into the realism genre. “A lot of the subject matter is nature-related — birds, animals and landscapes. … There’s other things in there, too,” Kropat said. “Most of it veers toward realism. There’s a little bit of abstract.” The works will be for sale dur-

ing the exhibition and they vary in both size and price range, Kropat said. “I saw one for $450. There are smaller ones for as little as $80,” she said. This year marks the 53rd year for the art league’s spring show. The gallery hours for the show will be noon to 4 p.m. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays; 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays; and by appointment. Appointments can be made by calling the gallery at (614) 890-8202.

COUNTY Continued from page A1 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,” board superintend-

ent Robert Morgan said, saying the board will do its part to use 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 5 cents more annually in taxes for the disabilities board than the $64.26 paid last year. ssole@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Wildcats prepping for tourney By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The balance in the OCC-Cardinal Division was evident in the Westerville South High School softball team’s doubleheader with Dublin Jerome and Dublin Scioto on April 30. The Wildcats opened the day by losing to Jerome 2-1 but bounced back to beat Scioto 5-1 behind senior pitcher Morgan Dietz. Marysville entered the week atop the OCC-Cardinal standings at 8-1 followed by Westerville North (7-2), Olentangy (5-3), South (6-5), Westerville Central

(5-4), Olentangy Liberty (5-5), Scioto (1-8) and Jerome (1-10). “We just didn’t hit the ball too well against Jerome,” junior shortstop Erica Aiello said. “All teams have those days. We just have to battle back like we did the second game.” South will visit Olentangy Liberty on Friday, May 6, in preparation for the Division I district tournament. The Wildcats defeated Liberty 2-1 on April 18. A highlight of South’s recent play was beating Central 5-2 on April 26. Dietz went the distance, allowing three hits while striking out three and walking five. Dietz and Lindsay Gerhart both

homered. Senior Leigh Siedlak had two home runs in a 4-0 victory over Utica on April 29. “What we’re up and down with more of is our team intensity,” coach Jerry Kelbley said. “We need to be focused every game 100 percent. It’s not that they’re not trying 100 percent. It’s just that I’d like to see our game focus a little more.” South will open Division I district tournament play Tuesday, May 10, as host to Hilliard Darby. The teams were scheduled to play April 14, but the game was canceled.

North-South game is ‘very important’ By JEREMY STEWART ThisWeek Community Newspapers

With a slew of first-year players on a roster that includes 17 sophomores, the Westerville North High School girls lacrosse team is much younger than past seasons. That youth might provide South with an opportunity to hand the Warriors their first loss to a Westerville school when the teams play Thursday, May 5, at North. Both teams appear to be in similar building phases, and in a season of ups and downs for both squads, winning Westerville would be something to celebrate. Both teams already have defeated Central. North won 14-9 on April 28 and South won 159 on April 14. “The South game is very important,” North attacker Keama Garrett said. “It’s a very important game this year. Because we’ve been kind of rebuilding this year, this game is definitely going to make or break the season.” Not only do the Warriors have more first-year players than past seasons, the veterans on the team have had to adjust to a new system under first-year coach Abby Breneman. She wanted to take some of the scoring pressure off

The Westerville North High School and St. Charles Preparatory baseball teams appear to be evenly matched as they prepare to meet in the first round of the Division I district tournament Monday, May 9, at North. The teams last met in the 2009 district tournament with the Warriors winning 2-1. “I’ve heard that St. Charles mirrors us in that they’re a good team when they don’t beat themselves,” Warriors coach Sean Ring said. “So if I were a betting man, I’d say that the team that makes the least amount of errors and mistakes will win this game, because neither of us seems to hold a big advantage in any one area.” St. Charles beat Worthington Kilbourne 1-0 and 8-4 on April 30 to improve to 9-11. The Cardinals are led by 6foot-7 senior pitcher Patrick Dyer, an Akron recruit who was 3-2. “St. Charles has one pretty good pitcher, but the rest of their players have an average skill set, much like our team,” Ring said. “Playing in (the OCCCardinal Division), we’ve already seen a lot of good pitching, so I think our guys are ready (for Dyer).” Ring said the Warriors will count on pitchers Garrett Lieb and Jake Miller to start tournament games. Through 18 games, Lieb had a team-high three victories on the mound and Miller had two wins. Batting over .300 were Michael Cooper, Lieb, Miller, Alex Morrow and Colin Williams. Miller had three home runs and Lieb had two home runs. “Our pitching has been pretty good for the most part, and Jake and Garrett will be our two horses through the district tournament,” Ring said. “The games where we don’t have a high walk total are the ones we seem to win.” St. Charles coach Ray Benjamin said timely hitting is the key to victory for his squad. “The main thing is that we hit a stretch in six games (where we) left 62 runners on base,” Benjamin said. “We started that with a 3-2 loss in eight innings to Watterson (on April 8) in the first week of the CCL when we left 12 on base. Then we lost 2-1 to DeSales (on April 13) and left 12 on. And in both games we had the same amount of hits as Watterson (8 hits) and DeSales (7 hits). “We are consistently leaving 10 runners on base. We are getting great pitching and playing good defense, but we haven’t been able to get the big hit when we need it.” The winner will play Wednesday, May 11 at 10th-seeded Watkins Memorial or Teays Valley “I feel confident that we’ll See BASEBALL, page B3

Westerville finishes second in Governor’s Cup By JARROD ULREY 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 second 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

Below are the recent results and coming schedule for the Westerville boys and girls rowing teams: April 22-23 — Cincinnati Invitational on Lake Harsha in Batavia was canceled because of bad weather April 30 — Finished second (172) in 18-team Governor’s Cup Regatta on Griggs Reservoir behind Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club (234.5) May 21-22 — Midwest Junior Rowing Championships on Lake Harsha.

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 Bergdoll, 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 meet of the spring Saturday, May 7, when it travels to Hamilton for the Burgundy and Blue Youth Regatta. The squad had three boats compete in the Governor’s Cup 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

Boys track team puts in overtime $

By JEREMY STEWART

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The DeSales High School boys track and field team wasn’t going to go home early when the Mingo Relays at Logan was delayed on April 29. The Stallions already had three meets canceled this season and coach Rick Baker needed his team to face as much competition as possible with the CCL meet and the postseason approaching. “It’s been tough,” Baker said the day before the Mingo Relays. “With three meets canceled already, we need to get out there. The CCL meet is just a little more than a week away.” The Mingo Relays began April 29 but didn’t finish until the early hours of April 30. It was after 1 a.m. when the Stallions finally lined up for the 6,400-meter relay, the final event. “It was a little difficult to stay warmed up,” hurdler Riley West said. “We had to make sure everybody stayed in the zone. It was a different experience.” A traffic accident on U.S. Route 33 kept four teams from arriving at Logan in time for the meet, which was scheduled to start with field events at 4 p.m. The Stallions, who arrived on time, had to wait for those teams to show up. Once they did, officials delayed the meet another two hours to give the late-arriving teams a chance to warm up. The Stallions, who didn’t arrive back at school until around 2 a.m., placed fifth with 66 points behind champion Westerville Central (142). Even though many of its top point scorers from a year ago returned this season, DeSales still is trying to find out which athletes are ready to advance past the Division II district meet. High jumper Aaron Melsop was the team’s only athlete to compete at the Mingo Relays who has regional experience. He placed ninth in the high jump (5 feet, 6 inches) in the Mingo Relays behind champion Davon Reed of Westerville Central (6-4). “All year we’ve been scoring in just about every event,” Baker said. “Maybe we’re not winning individual races all the time. It’s been the consistency of scoring in all the events. I don’t know how that’s going help us in the league where there’s only five teams, but I like where we are in the district.” The Stallions compete in the CCL meet May 12 and 14 at Columbus School for Girls and in the district meet May 17, 19 and 21 at Hamilton Township. They are seeded fifth in the district. West has been one of the Stallions who,

The Stallions’ Warren Ball competes in the 400 meters during the Braves Invitational at Whetstone on April 27.

despite the cancellations, has shown signs that he could have a strong postseason. Last year, he was fifth in the 300 hurdles in the district 1 meet, narrowly missing advancing to regional. West finished with a time of 42.41 seconds, as Eastmoor Academy’s Steven Mitchell (39.55) won. Licking Heights’ Jordan Bodell secured the fourth and final regional-qualifying spot (41.64). West is running faster times this season. He tied Amanda-Clearcreek’s Jonathan Wampler for third in the 300 hurdles (41.19) in the Mingo Relays, as Teays Valley’s Michael Hutter won (40.56).

“What’s driving me is I want to get back to (the district meet) and get past that point and into the state meet,” West said. “I kind of want to break the school record, which is about 37.4. I’m focusing on that and trying to come in first at the CCL meet.” Baker also has high hopes for Warren Ball in the postseason. Ball, who missed last season to rehabilitate an injury sustained playing football, has been excelling in the 200. He was fourth in the Mingo Relays (23.1) behind champion Channing Doermann of Westerville Central (22.4). See DESALES, page B5

LACROSSE Continued from page B1 with our coach, we’ve had a lot of ups and downs. This has been kind of a rebuilding season and a comeback season. A lot of people didn’t think we’d be able to play well. (The Central game) was really a great night for us because we played as a team.” South, which was 2-14 last year, opened this season 3-1 before losing five games in a row. Despite that losing streak, there has been a change of attitude among Wildcats players. “We have become a much more aggressive team on defense and on faceoffs, which has resulted in more turnovers and longer time of possession,” coach Allison Neff said. “If we can finish strong with our offensive plays then we could absolutely come up victorious (against North).” One player North must worry about is South midfielder Tori Fitzmartin, who had six goals in an 11-7 loss to Hilliard Bradley on April 28 and consistently has drawn double and triple teams this season. South has tried to slow its offense to allow it to explore its options before Fitzmartin commits to driving against multiple defenders. “We’re trying to settle down the offense a little bit more, which is going to be essential against a team like North because they’re going to have a pretty strong defense,” Fitzmartin said. “We’re definitely trying to re-evaluate instead of having me

However, other players are involved in North’s offense this season. Garrett led with five goals against Central, but Katie Antle (three goals), Makenzie Vail (two), Katy Williams (two), Tricia Gerber and Hurl also scored. “The one thing I have emphasized to the team this year is that anyone can score,” Breneman said. “Yes, Taylor and Keama have still done a great

job this season and are both captains of the team with very high stats. It’s nice to see that no matter where I put the girls on the field, they can play that position. Most of the games, we will end up with a low defender on the offensive side at some point, which shows that they are willing to work together to make something happen.” North won last year’s game 21-12. The Warriors also won 16-2 in 2009, 9-4 in 2008 and 7-6 in overtime in 2007, which was South’s first season. www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Continued from page B4 “He’s done really well,” Baker said of Ball. “He’s really getting back into running shape.” David Brooks-Dandridge placed fourth in the discus (1369) in the Mingo Relays behind champion Tyler Cline of Reedsville Eastern (153-1). The performance by Brooks-Dandridge came two weeks after he won the shot put with a throw of 45-9 1/2 at the Stallion Invitational on April 16. •A day after losing its first game, the softball team was awarded the top seed for the Division II district tournmament. The Stallions lost to Sylvania Southview 2-1 in the Prebis Memorial Tournament on April 30 at LaGrange Keystone. They fell behind 2-0 before finally getting a run in the bottom of the seventh inning. The last time DeSales was the top seed in the district was 2007, when they won a district title before losing to New Concord John Glenn 3-2 in a regional semifinal. The Stallions, who won a district title last year, have a firstround bye and play host to Bexley or Beechcroft in the second round on May 11. The winner of the second-round game advances to a district semifinal, where it will play Big Walnut, Hamilton Township or Whitehall on May 16 at Pickerington North.

Zoombezi Bay adds two serpentine slides By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

An anaconda and python will be added to Zoombezi Bayâ€™s lineup of tides, rapids and twisters. Two new serpentine slides â€” Anaconda Falls and the Python Plunge â€” will snake into Zoombezi Bay when the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium water park opens later this month. â€œAnaconda Falls is unique and different from anything we have in Zoombezi Bay,â€? 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. â€œThat was a nice day at work. We tested waterslides. Itâ€™s fun, but itâ€™s a necessary experience because you want something that will be exciting and invigorating,â€? Gannon said. â€œWe rode

slides and picked the best ones.â€? Anaconda Falls starts in an enclosed â€œserpentine slide,â€? Gannon said. â€œYou donâ€™t know if youâ€™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.â€? After a few harrowing moments on the ramp â€” â€œThereâ€™s no lip, it looks like you could go

over the side, but physics wonâ€™t allow it,â€? Gannon said â€” 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. â€œItâ€™s a watercoaster. Itâ€™s like a rollercoaster because youâ€™re going uphill,â€? Gannon said. â€œThis is the first one at Zoombezi Bay.â€? Anaconda Falls is like six other slides across the country, but according to Gannon, the Python Plunge is an original. â€œItâ€™s a combination of two waterslides,â€? he said. â€œThe Python Plunge doesnâ€™t exist anywhere else.â€? Along with offering something new for Zoombezi Bay visitors, Gannon said, the new slides are working toward a shorter time in ride lines. â€œWeâ€™re excited to reduce line length at other slides,â€? he said. â€œThe new slides have good ca-

pacity. A lot of people will be able to ride these in an hourâ€™s time.â€? The new slithering slides will also sidle up to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. â€œWhere they are is a strategic move to bring the waterpark closer to the zoo,â€? Gannon said. â€œYouâ€™ll be able to see these water slides from the zoo entry plaza â€ŚWe hope it adds some excitement to a zoo visit. If youâ€™re at Jungle Jackâ€™s Landing youâ€™ll be able to hear screams from the water park.â€? Bringing the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium attractions closer together will also mean a few animals at Zoombezi Bay. 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.

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio

tally modern — young, beautiful, gifted and a contemporary tour-de-force on the classical music scene. 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. Call (614) 464-0066.

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

activities and more. The Saturday night headline concert features Rod and Annie Capps and Dave Hawkins. 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.

MENU by G.A. Benton

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.”

They will tear down an existing BP gas station to make way for the new 2,000-squarefoot building at 3255 Silver Drive, where North Broadway and Interstate 71 meet near Clintonville. Chix & Fries will offer grilled chicken tenders, fried boneless tenders and chicken wings and french fries, plus four or five signature sauces and sandwiches. The restaurant should be open sometime in the fall, Mandas said. He said the place is bringing back the Italian herb-crusted chicken sandwich that was popular at the Boulevard Grille and the ColumChicken and potatoes will be the obvious bus Arts Festival. The food at the new restaurant will be comstaple of Chix & Fries, a new enterprise owned by Jim Mandas, formerly of the Boulevard petitively priced, he said.

Have You Heard? by Greg VanHorssen EXPLAINING HEARING LOSS IN CHILDREN Up to one in every 1,000 children has some kind of serious hearing loss. While approximately half of these cases can be traced to hereditary causes, parents of a child with a hearing loss and none of their own may wonder what caused their child’s hearing impairment. According to new research, the culprit may be a virus that the mother contracted while pregnant. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common virus that infects most people at some point in their lives, but it seldom causes obvious illness. For women who are already infected when they become pregnant, the chances of infecting their unborn children are quite small; women who become infected with CMV while pregnant have a higher chance.
