Flooring contractor will move to city By LISA AURAND ThisWeek Community Newspapers A jobs growth incentive agreement passed May 16 by Grove City Council will spur Ohio’s largest commercial flooring contractor to move to town. Legacy Commercial Flooring Ltd., currently located in Columbus, will move to an existing building at 2235 Southwest Blvd. and bring 49 office employees to the city. Owner George Holinga, a Grove City
resident, spoke before council at the May 16 meeting. “My wife has had a business here for 12 years,” Holinga said. “(Legacy is) 111 years old. We moved from Denver to Columbus in 1914, and I’m here to break that 97-year tradition.” Holinga said the business has downsized significantly since the start of the recession, reducing its payroll from $5.9 million to less than $2 million. The five-year agreement with Grove City grants Legacy a 25-percent local
payroll tax abatement if it meets or exceeds a payroll of $2 million. Under the terms of the agreement as originally proposed, the company would receive no abatement if the number of employees dips below 49. An amendment proposed by the city administration and passed unanimously by council May 16 changed the requirement to a $2 million total payroll. “Rather than the number of jobs, we’d like to base it on a dollar amount,” city administrator Phil Honsey said.
In addition, Honsey pointed out that Legacy still must pay its payroll taxes. The city will make an annual payment back to the company out of that amount. “This is all done ... so that the city does not extend itself financially,” Honsey said. Following up on a complaint from the May 2 council meeting, Grove City resident Bob Mazzola asked council to consider a proposal to mitigate traffic noise and light pollution caused by a new parking lot and access road for the new Rave
movie theater. “The original drawing indicated that there would be no more than one (access point). … Now there are three different driveways,” Mazzola said, adding he had a signed petition from 134 households that want protection from the light and sound caused by the new commercial development in the area. “We ask that you approve the recommended solution or negotiate an acSee COUNCIL, page A2

Big Splash pool ready for opening day By LISA AURAND ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A closer look
Grove City’s public pool is cleaned, polished and ready to open for the season Memorial Day weekend. Tim Baker, recreation coordinator for the Big Splash, said fresh sand has been added to the volleyball court and play area and 56 new chairs have been purchased to prepare for opening day, Saturday, May 28. “We’re ready for some hot weather without any rain,” Baker said. As always, the waterpark features a zerodepth entrance, interactive water toys, two body slides, a smaller slide for younger children and climbing walls. For the second year in a row, the park earned top honors from Jeff Ellis & Associates, an international aquatic safety and risk management consultant group. The Big Splash uses the company’s lifeguard training program, Baker said. An auditor visits the park unannounced and observes safety practices. Based on those observations, the Big
Opening day will be Saturday, May 28. Season pass-holders are allowed early entrance to the park at 11 a.m. Regular park hours are from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday. The Big Splash is closed on weekdays while South-Western City Schools are in session.
Splash earned the company’s Platinum Award. “They compare all the scores with their other (facilities) around the world and we scored in the top the last two years in a row,” Baker said. “I’m very proud of the staff. They worked very hard and I think they deserve all the credit,” Baker said. One change that will be less visible to the public is an update to the park’s security system.
The city spent about $8,000 on a new fob system. Employees will use the fobs to enter restricted areas. Access will be available to police and firefighters, Baker said. New steel doors protect the area where money is kept. Annual events include Pirate Day and Safety Day, which feature police and firefighters, and Safari Day with animals from the Columbus Zoo. In addition, the annual Soggy Dog Swim will take place from 1-3 p.m. Sept. 11. The swim is for dogs only and takes place after the pool closes for the season Sept. 5. “Last year, we raised almost $1,400 for a local animal shelter with our dog swim,” Baker said. The Big Splash attracted 1,049 season pass-holders last year and more than 53,000 total guests. About 275 children participated in swim lessons. Season passes are on sale through July 4 and range in cost from $60 for a single youth Grove City resident to $190 for a nonresident family of five. See BIG SPLASH, page A2
Whether charges will be filed in connection with Grove City’s IRS debt will be determined after the state auditor’s office releases audit results in the next month or two, city safety director Mike Wasylik said. City police in January called in a special forensic team from the state auditor’s office to shore up a potential criminal case against a person or people who may have stolen from Grove City. “(The auditor’s team has) looked at a number of the documents. Keep in mind, we’re looking at 10 or 11 years’ worth of documents,” Police Chief Steve Robinette said. “I don’t think it’s a secret right now. We do believe a crime has been committed.” Wasylik said it didn’t make sense for GBQ Consulting, hired by the city in January to review Grove City’s books, to tackle an audit when the state auditor’s office already had been tasked with the job. GBQ never had a chance to review documents relating to the case and has shifted its focus to policies and procedures at the direction of city administrators, city spokesman Don Walters said earlier this month. GBQ is still contracted for up to $20,000 of work for Grove City. “The police weren’t withholding anything from GBQ,” Wasylik said. “It just didn’t make sense to anybody to duplicate exactly what the state was doing. Why pay somebody else to do that again?” Grove City will pay a maximum of $54,000 for the special audit from the state, Robinette said. Records being held by police are still accessible, Robinette
said. “In terms of the documents, we have made them available to anybody that has a legitimate need to see them,” Robinette said. “We still fill public records requests and those kinds of things.” Normally, public records requests for city documents would go through city administration,
“

”
STEVE ROBINETTE —Police chief
but because the police department is holding the IRS-related records as evidence, certain records requests must be fulfilled through that department instead, Robinette said. “We have to have ... discussions with the (Franklin County) prosecutor’s office in terms of what they want to represent in court.” he said. “It’s just a long process. We’re going through it methodically to make sure we’re doing it correctly and sometimes, it takes a second set of eyes.” Wasylik said the state auditor also is conducting the annual review of Grove City’s financial statements. Those results will be released within the next See IRS, page A2
City collects first business survey responses By LISA AURAND ThisWeek Community Newspapers The results are in from Grove City’s first business survey, but they aren’t ready to be revealed quite yet. “There are some interesting results and there are some items for us to re-
spond to,” city spokesman Don Walters said. “We will be able to act upon what we found out, which is always a good thing.” The city paid Columbus-based research company Saperstein Associates $22,000 to develop questions and administer the online survey.
About 470 online surveys were filled out regarding the needs of the city’s businesses. In addition, the city hoped to collect an e-mail address for each participating company, to contact each company without using the postal service. The survey included a few questions
relating to the Grove City Center for Higher Education, such as whether employers would be willing to provide tuition reimbursement or flexible work schedules so workers could attend relevant classes. The answers will help Columbus State Community College determine

City collects business survey responses BIG SPLASH Continued from page A1 at work compiling the results of a community survey of Grove City residents. “We’ve just finished the field work, so that means over 500 people have been successfully interviewed, and that means there were many more contacts made,” Walters said. The city paid Saperstein an additional $23,000 to administer the community survey, which has been taken every other year since 1992.
“We have eight prior surveys ... so we have a whole draft of standard questions always to be asked so we can watch a trend line,” Walters said. “So, if satisfaction on street cleaning starts to fall off two surveys in a row, and we’ve seen two constant decreases in attitude perceptions, we’re doing something wrong.” The community survey contained a few new questions about a possible new station for the Jackson Township Fire Department. “They’ve had extensive discussions and considerations … about the potential need

for a fourth fire station,” Walters said. Township administrator Mike Lilly provided four questions about the new fire station for the survey. The additional questions did not increase the survey’s cost, Walters said. “We’re allowed to just put in sporadic survey-type questions if there’s something really topical that we want to hear about,” he said. Results of the community survey should be tabulated within the next month, Walters said.

City law director Stephen Smith Jr. said it would be nearly impossible to legally force the developer to make concessions because council already approved the current development plan. Honsey said that he and development director Chuck Boso would attempt to find a solution acceptable to both the developer and the residents. “We’ve agreed to work with the residents on making sure we’re not talking past each other,” Honsey said. “Our next step will be to see if we can get Continental Real Estate to meet with the very same group and go through some possibilities. We don’t have a mechanism to take rights away from the developer, but there may be things we can do.”

few weeks. In December, the IRS told the city it owed about $685,905 in unpaid payroll withholding taxes. An initial investigation by the city revealed discrepancies in the city’s books beginning in 1999. Mailed notices of the late and unpaid returns were found among files in City Hall. City administrators said they have since changed the way mail is handled, passing it directly to department heads. Grove City officials have determined that $235,311 in city funds remain unaccounted for. That money is the focus of the police investigation. No charges had been filed as of press time.

As it were
Post-Revolutionary War land was cheap in Ohio Ohio did not exist when the Nelsons came into the place that later would become Columbus. In 1800, central Ohio was truly on the edge of the frontier that had been claimed finally by the victory of Gen. Anthony Wayne’s army at the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794. It was a long, difficult ED and nasty LENTZ struggle. In the years after the end of the French and Indian War in 1763, Great Britain had claimed by treaty rights most of the land north and west of the Ohio River. It was a rich land with deep forests, great prairies and rivers that ran clean, wide and deep. It was a land worth fighting for and many people did just that. Wanting to maintain the lucrative fur trade that had made a fortune for the French, the British government tried to keep its restless Atlantic colonists away from Ohio. It was a vain effort. The initial ventures of men called “long hunters” soon were followed by dozens and then hundreds of settlers seeking to find a new home in a new country. The American Indian residents of the Ohio Valley resisted the newcomers, and the result often was violent and deadly on both sides. Then came the American Revolution, and the Ohio country was the scene of even more death and destruction. At the end of the Revolution, the newly created United States found itself with an unpaid army and a lot of very large debts. And while the new country had little money, it had a lot of land. So the new country took the obvious course and paid its soldiers and creditors in land and then offered much of what remained for sale. It was the promise of that new and inexpensive land that drew people like David Nelson and his family to Ohio. Born in 1752, David Nelson was the oldest son of Robert and Martha Nelson of Anderson’s Ferry, Pa. When David was 3, the family moved to the frontier of Juniata County, Pa., and it was there that David came of age. After the outbreak of the American Revolution, he enlisted with several relatives in the “Eighth Company, Fourth Battalion of Associators and Militia of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania” on July 31, 1777. On May 14, 1778, he was commissioned a captain after serving through the long winter at Valley Forge. In March 1779, David returned to his home and soon married Margaret Logan, a widow with two young sons. In addition to raising the two boys, David and Margaret had seven children of their own. The Nelsons lived in central Pennsylvania until 1798, when they decided to move west to the new and inexpensive lands in Ohio. A grandchild later wrote a description of David Nelson in those years. “He was generous but stern, with a strict sense of duty and very strong in his prejudices. He was a very handsome man, above-medium height, a

fine person, regular features, black curly hair, very dark brown, almost black eyes.” His wife, Margaret, once was described as “the prettiest woman in the Lost Creek Valley” of Pennsylvania. “She had dark-brown hair, hazel eyes, regular features, fine complexion and was of a mild and kindly disposition.” Like many other people of their generation, the Nelsons came to believe that a better life awaited them in the new lands north and west of the Ohio River. They moved first to Chillicothe and lived there for a couple of years while David and his oldest son, Robert, looked for a new home in central Ohio. At length they found it along Alum Creek in what then was called the Refugee Tract. Set aside for people from Nova Scotia who had lost land because of their loyalty to the American Revolution, the tract began at the Scioto River and ran east between what is now Fifth Avenue and Refugee Road. After the claims of the refugees were settled, the balance of the tract was made available in open sale. Some of it along Alum Creek was acquired by David Nelson and his family. Arriving in central Ohio in 1800, the Nelsons first built a log house that would serve as the family home for the next two decades. Margaret Nelson wrote to her son by a former marriage in 1801: “Our new cabin is dry, and we have plenty of room, and no matter what the weather, the chimney does not smoke. My two ewes and three lambs had 10 pounds of clean, picked wool, which we are beginning to feel the need of. Last year, we had 50 yards of linen out of our hemp. We have lost two milch cows and one heifer. They are dead before we know they are sick. We have four milch cows and two heifers yet, without going in debt for them. The families along the creek have been tolerably healthy, except Mr. Turner. He had the fever and ague and Mr. Hamilton and some of
the children, too. I have had my health this season as well as ever I had.” In 1819, David Nelson built a large brick house along the road that later would bear his name. Strong in their religious faith, they were early supporters of the first Presbyterian Church founded in the area by the Rev. James Hoge. For many years, the family traveled along a mud path through the forest to the church, first in Franklinton and then in the new village of Columbus. The path later became Broad Street. A later letter from Margaret Nelson to her son described the importance of religion in their lives: “We have had an uncommon cold winter and a cold, wet spring. The fruit is nearly all killed, and the cornfields in many places will have to be planted over. There has been a revival of religion this winter, more than I have ever known, in Columbus, Chillicothe and different places. A number have been added to the church, both old and young. “The Presbyterian Meeting House was finished in the winter, when the roads were good for sleighing and the house was dedicated and the sacrament held the same week. There were four or five ministers in town, and one stayed six or eight weeks, visiting from house to house, having a sermon or prayer meeting at night and Bible classes.” The Nelsons lived in one of the first suburbs of the new capital city of Ohio for a number of years until the death of David Nelson in 1829. His wife, Margaret, died two years later in 1831. At the corner of Clifton Avenue and Nelson Road, a small sign remembers the Nelson mill and the frontier community that once was around it. And just up the road on the left — within sight of the sign -— still stands the redbrick house of the Nelsons of Nelson Road.

The Career Closet, a program offering free job interview clothing to central Ohio women in need, has moved from the retail store of Goodwill Columbus on Morse Road to the headquarters of Dress for Success Columbus on North High Street. Goodwill operated the Career Closet at the Morse Road retail store for the last three years. Margie Pizzuti, president and CEO of Goodwill Columbus, said the need to provide one-on-one counseling on interview-appropriate clothing proved challenging to the Goodwill staff. One-on-one personal shopping assistance is a service Dress for Success provides every day, according to Vicki Bowen Hayes, the organization’s executive director. Referrals from area social service agencies will determine need for free clothing and workforce transition services. Consultations are by appointment only.

Columbus Jazz Orchestra’s season-ending concerts May 20-21 at the Southern Theatre, are less a “stump the band” concept than a “greatest hits.” Oh, sure, the program was selected by fans, but will not include every suggestion taken through the CJO’s website. Communications director Scott Vezdos told The Beat they’d received suggestions for tunes by AC/DC, KISS and Jimmy Buffet, among many others. Think more Georgia on My Mind, Ain’t Misbehavin’, What a Wonderful World, A Night in Tunisia, When the Saints Go Marching In — and the like. Guest vocalist Maria Jacobs joins in the fun.

never bargained for Lez Zeppelin, the all-female quartet that pays tribute to the famed rock n’ rollers without being a “tribute band.” Founder and guitarist Steph Paynes told The Beat Lez Zep started with a simple principle: “I set out to do this in a naïve way because I love this music and it became my fantasy to get to play it,” she recalled. “If a tribute band sets out to create the illusion that what you’re seeing is the real thing — that’s never what we wanted to do.” “I had gotten remastered Led Zeppelin records as a gift,” she explained. “I had always enjoyed them but never really dug that deep. It blew my mind in a new way — it sounded better than anything else. I was between gigs and, well, I’d had an all-girl band in the early ’90s, so I thought it would be more novel to try and play this music this way. Paynes admitted that at first, she hoped the novelty of the approach would garner the new band a couple of gigs. She soon discovered the endeavor would have one distinct disadvantage, coupled with one distinct advantage. “People had never seen women play like this,” she said, “and this music was always considered such a ‘male’ expression. Once we embarked on this, we knew we had to play in the right way and that because we were women, we had to do a superb job.” The best way to do that, she decided, was not to attempt to
Lez Zeppelin will play the Friday, May 20, pre-festival fifth anniversary Party at Rock on the Range at Crew Stadium. For ticket information, call 1-800-745-3000. The festival will be held at Crew Stadium Saturday and Sunday, May 21-22. For a full schedule and ticket information, visit www.rockontherange.com.
replicate the songs note-for-note, but to “bring the full Led Zeppelin live experience to people. They were four guys playing together intensely, but in the moment, with improvs and extended jams. That’s what we do.” She said there was no triedand-true method for finding the right bandmates; she auditioned plenty of great players who just weren’t right. Ultimately, she said, a combination of being good, being stylistically appropriate and being willing, in some combination, was the formula. (The current lineup — and players have come and gone in the years since Paynes first formed Lez Zep — includes bassist Megan Thomas, drummer Leesa Harrington-Squyres and singer Shannon Conley.) The advantage to her all-girl approach was unexpected. Led Zeppelin’s look — long hair, tight pants, billowy shirts and accent scarves and necklaces — worked pretty well for a bunch of girls. “Led Zeppelin was doing
male posturing dressed as women,” Paynes said. “There’s a certain alchemy of male and female energy that works for us. It really churns things up, to have that gender, that sexual dynamic.” Ultimately, Paynes said Lez Zeppelin adheres to its original “noble cause,” which is to just keep playing this music. She said their shows find everyone from teenagers who’ve recently discovered the original article to women (who many thought had no interest in Led Zep’s music) to older fans who “tell us they saw Led Zeppelin seven times or whatever and tell us ‘You’re doing it right.’ “That means we’re on the right track.” “Hey, hey mama/Said the way you move/ Gonna make you sweat/Gonna make you groove” — Led Zeppelin, Black Dog ■ For more from The Beat’s interview with Steph Paynes of Lez Zeppelin, read the BeatBlog at www.ThisWeekNews.com.
Fortune Chinese Restaurant offers lengthy menu “Hot Pepper Frog, Homestyle Made Frog, or Frog Stir-Fried with Pickle Chili?” asked my sister, flashing an oftpracticed devilish grin. We were plotting our order from the provocative, lengthy and new menu in Fortune Chinese Restaurant. Recently implemented by the place’s new owners, that voluminous food list includes many intriguing looking dishes which appear to substantiate the menu’s claim of “The Best Selection of Authentic Szechuan Style Food.” As we expressed hope that Fortune’s execution of Szechuan dishes would match its self-heralded “selection,” we also commented on how drastically the once-Cantonese-centric cuisine there had changed. Too bad we couldn’t say the same about Fortune’s drab decor. Because although Fortune has received a muchneeded housecleaning, sprucing up and coat of paint (albeit in a pale, wan yellow), it still has a dingy dropped ceiling, industrial carpet, goofy 3D-type
MENU by G.A. Benton “art” and dull brown, occasionally ripped Naugahyde booths. So how was the food? In general, I found it to be salty, saucy, aggressive and oily. Since that also describes me, we got along famously. In fact, slurping up Fortune’s inexpensive but explosively flavored grub was so much fun I didn’t much mind that the Tsingtao beer bottle on my table was the place’s best claim to ambience. As for ordering strategies, except for the chef’s specials, we took the menu’s implicit suggestion and stuck with any section mentioning Szechuan in its header (there are four). While there was some sameness to the seasoning among these brazen entrees — expect generous glugs of chili oil, fresh jalapeno, garlic and ginger
taste: Fish with Rice Crust ($14): This massive (serves two or three) and mighty flavor onslaught was served with a little razzle-dazzle and is highly recommended. Thin and crispy rice cakes gave off an audible sizzle on the plate (think “snap crackle pop”) when doused with an enormous bowl of impressively tender battered whitefish planks and a cornucopia of veggies (starring Chinese broccoli) swimming in a sea of wild and thick, salty, sweet and spicy sauce. Ma Po Bean Curd ($9): Silken tofu cubes swamped in chili oil and spiked with fermented black beans were liberally sprinkled with lip-tingling ground Szechuan peppercorns. Really fun and By Jodi Miller/ThisWeek almost druggy in its sting and oral Lamb with cumin and chili peppers at numbing effects. Diced Chicken Stir Fried with Fortune Chinese Restaurant. Pickle Turnip ($8): I enjoyed this bold, and an occasionally to-the-brink sweet- cheap and comparatively ungreasy dish ness — I wouldn’t say any two dishes so much that it’s become my new gowere completely identical. Here’s a to to-go Chinese dinner. Diced poultry
coated in red chili paste was further seasoned with garlic, jalapeno and lively chunks of semi-funky and pleasantly sour veggie pickles. A hot and tangy must. Lamb with Chili Pepper and Cumin ($8): The delightfully tender meat was flavorful enough to stand up to its soy sauce, onion and jalapeno-fueled spicy and salty treatment. Pretty terrific. Hot Pepper Frog ($11): A rare sauce-free Fortune preparation, this was battered and fried bundles of froggy, tossed with leafy celery tops, jalapeno, scallion and a volatile arsenal of firecracker-like fried red chili peppers. I liked it, but there were a lot of tiny, hidden bones in those battered bites. Mixed Vegetable Stir Fry ($8): Like a pleasantly bitter sauteed salad of slivered carrots and green veggies dressed in soy sauce and cooking oil, this functions well as a palate-refreshing side to the rich, spicy and more complex flavors of many dishes here.
Revamped Westerville pizzeria now offers baked pies In perfect conditions, customers have only a short wait for a freshly baked pie at Runaway Pasta & Pizza in Westerville. With his handy Hhc 2020 TurboChef oven, Peter Tanski can bake a pizza in 2.5 minutes. Put another way, that’s 150 seconds. “This is the next-generation way to cook a pizza,” he said. Certainly, longer lines mean a longer wait for patrons, but Tanski’s lovin’ his oven. It doesn’t require an expensive ventilation system and runs off of electricity. It uses a convection-and-impingement process, meaning it simul-
taneously sucks in and pushes out air, while a catalytic converter cleans the exhaust. The conveyor unit is capable of cooking 60 pizzas in one hour. Runaway takes over Tanksi’s former Mama Mimi’s franchise at 925 N. State St., just east of Meijer. Runaway’s fresh-tossed dough uses flour that is free of bromate, a conditioner that strengthens the dough and allows for higher rising. Tanski prefers
the old-fashioned method. He has three crusts: a regular style seasoned with oregano and garlic, plain wheat and a gluten-free product not made on premises. The reason being, he said, is the risk for cross-contamination. Pizzas are 12 or 16 inches and crusts are either thin or medium-thick. He has a full complement of designer pizza options, such as the barbecue pulled pork and spinach and artichoke dip, as well as a build-your-own section. The big sellers right now are the deluxe and Margherita options. He acknowledges prices are about $1 or $2 more than chain pizzas. The difference is in the ingredients, he said. For example, Tanski also uses Stanislaus tomato products, which are made from fresh tomatoes, not concentrate. He mixes the seasonings in-house for his own distinctive flavor. “It’s not something that’s going to be duplicated anywhere,” he said. In addition, he uses 100 percent cheese, a mozzarella-provolone blend, and locally made Ezzo Sausage Co. pepperoni. He prepares pizzas to By Chris Parker/ThisWeek order and begins the cooking process when customers As one pizza comes out of the oven, Peter Tanski works on another in his shop, Runarrive. Even during busier away Pasta & Pizza, 925 N. State St. in Westerville.
times, he sees that has an efficient method, as customers generally wait no longer than 10 minutes for their order. Still, purchasing another oven could be necessary once business improves, he said. The menu also includes a slate of salads, baked pasta, take-and-bake casseroles, chicken wings and a few desserts, including fresh-baked cookies. Sandwiches could be offered in the future, he said. “Doing things people are familiar with but in your own way is the way to succeed, I think,” he said. Tanski is looking into adding some seating in the 1,453-square-foot space, which does not provide a dine-in experience. Runaway is open lunch and dinner hours daily. For more information, call 614-523-3000. The latest Ohio-made vodka has a Columbus connection. Karl Schneider of Upper Arlington is among a group of investors behind Buckeye Vodka, which is produced in Dayton. The premium, small-batch vodka uses distilled water from a direct source — Crystal Water Co. — and is distilled 10 times for an unmistakably smooth, clean and pure flavor, spokeswoman Michele Mooney said. It is available at several local stores, including many local Giant Eagle and Kroger stores, High Street Beverage and Huffman’s Market.

Gift ideas for college-bound grads Graduation season is right around the corner and scores of high schoolers are preparing to leave the nest for the first time. Parents of high school seniors often want to find a gift that both symbolizes the significance of graduation and proves useful in the fall when kids take their first step onto a college campus. Though most high school kids would love a new car for graduation, such a gift is not within reach for most parents nor is it practical, as many colleges don’t allow incoming freshmen to have cars on campus. While they might not be a new car, the following gifts can put a smile on a new grad’s face and prove useful at college, too. • Gaming console: Gamers may love to pack the latest gaming console among their belongings when they head off to college this fall. Though parents might want their kids hitting the books instead of playing video games, a gaming console can provide a welcome respite for college kids stressing out over their studies. In addition, gaming consoles can
A new gaming console can make a graduation gift for college-bound high school grads. be great ice-breakers, providing the avenue by which incoming freshmen can meet and befriend their fellow dorm dwellers. Some interactive gaming consoles, including the Nintendo Wii, can even help freshmen fight off the infamous “Freshman 15,” by encouraging physically active gaming. • Television: Like gaming consoles, new televisions make great ice-breakers at college. Chances are, your favorite high schooler has grown accustomed to Mom
and Dad’s home theater system. While kids likely won’t be able to fit such a system in their dorm room, a flat-screen TV can fit into any dorm room and give freshmen a little home away from home. • Computer: Today’s computers are more affordable than ever, and every incoming freshman can make good use of a new computer. When shopping, keep laptop computers in mind, as kids can take laptops along with them to class and study groups. If
2011 High School Graduation Dates
grads already have a new or relatively new computer, consider upgrading the computer’s accessories. For example, a new set of computer speakers can increase a computer’s functionality and might even serve as a less bulky home theater system. • Money: Though it’s not incredibly personal, money is a gift no college-bound recent graduate will turn down. Kids are going to need money more than ever before while they’re at college, where they’ll need to buy books, food and cover their social expenses. Parents might not want to give their favorite new grads money for graduation, but such a gift makes perfect sense for aunts, uncles or other distant relatives. • Furniture: Most dorm rooms are anything but roomy, but college-bound grads are still going to need some furniture. Consider functional furniture, such as bins, organizers or a new computer chair, that might not be as glamorous but will be very useful and effective. Courtesy of Metro News Service.

Most popular college majors
• Biology: A biology degree is often the first step in a career in medicine. Biologists may specialize in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals, which may offer careers that pay a little more. Biology majors can expect to earn between $39,000 to $45,000. • Business Administration: These graduates are often on the right path for careers in real estate and infrastructure of big companies. These grads often go on to get MBAs and eventually become executives, some even CEOs. Starting salaries are among the more lucrative at around $57,000. • Communications: These majors are often in competition with English majors for the same jobs, which can include interpreting visual and verbal messages, advertising, journalism, public relations, and speech writing. Salaries may start around $31,000. • Criminal Justice: These
graduates have a number of options at their disposal, but tend to gravitate to law enforcement. Government jobs can be stable and lucrative, and a good option for criminal justice majors. Starting salaries average about $38,000. • Elementary education: Education is one of the few careers that continues to grow and provide good options for applicants. Although good teachers are an asset to future students and workers, a teacher earns the lowest starting salary of the most popular majors, averaging just $29,500. • Nursing: Nursing is one of the largest industries inside of the health care niche and continues to add workers. Nurses have a wide range of options in jobs. Salaries begin around $41,000. • Psychology: This is the second most popular major, usually for students who are unsure as to where they want
cs 052809 527646401-1
to go in college. Psychology students often combine their major with others to have a specific concentration, such as adolescent counseling or teaching. Starting salaries are around $46,000. College can unlock doors in the career world. Depending on what students want to earn after graduation, college majors should be based on interests and earning potential.

Thousands of high schoolers will be graduating in a few weeks and many will be going on to college in the fall, a decision that may have been difficult to make. When pondering their futures, high schoolers may wonder whether college is necessary and a smart choice for success. Although every student is different and there are scenarios that can affect anyone’s future, the decision to attend college is generally beneficial. It often opens up doors and opportunities in the workplace that a high school diploma alone cannot. Here are some things to consider: • Ours is a global economy with many job applicants being pooled from all over the world. A higher education becomes a necessity rather than a luxury. • College may open up opportunities for internships, which offer hands-on experience in particular fields. • College can help develop social skills that are a benefit in and out of the workplace. • Generally college graduates earn higher salaries than those who only have a high school diploma. When students go on to college, there are some majors that prove more popular than others. But the most popular majors don’t always ensure the best-paying or most rewarding jobs. According to CareerBuilder.com, here are the more popular college majors and what they generally pay in salary.

Each school and age-old tradition will dictate what color cap and gown a graduate will wear, but it is often up to the graduate when it comes to what is underneath the gown. There are some choices graduates can make to be comfortable and classy. Graduation ceremonies generally take place in the summer, when it can be quite warm. Combine this with a polyester graduation gown and several hundred people squeezed into a school auditorium and it can be quite hot. Choices in clothing under the gown should be made with climate in mind. In general, it is in good taste for women to wear a conservative dress or a skirted suit. A collared blouse can look tailored beneath the collarless neck of the graduation gown and won’t leave a gap of open skin between the graduation gown and the issued graduation hood. If a dress or skirt is worn, pantyhose finish the look because the graduation gown ends at the calf and a portion of the legs will be showing. Gentleman can wear a collared dress shirt and slacks with dress shoes. Students should avoid shoes that are loose or have high heels. They can present a

Animal shelter offering special adoption fees In order to increase the chances of finding permanent homes for the animals currently in care at the CHA Animal Shelter, as well as future animals coming in, a special adoption fee of $50 will be offered through the end of May. This includes animals of all ages, as well as the spay/neuter surgery, microchip, current vaccines, and a vouch-
er for a free exam with a participating veterinarian, according to the announcement. As an added promotion for animals that have been in the shelter for five months or more, during the weekend of May 20-22, CHA will be offering a $5 adoption fee on those long term animals. “CHA’s number-one goal is always
the health and wellbeing of our animals,” development director Terri Montigny said in a statement. “While the upfront adoption fee may be lower, we have the same adoption policies in place and potential adoptions will meet with an adoption counselor to help determine a best match for the family.” CHA Animal Shelter is located at 3765 Corporate Drive in northeast
STAR CINEMAS
When looking to adopt, all family members should make arrangements to be available to meet the animal prior to finalizing an adoption. Renters should bring a copy of their lease and pet addendum. CHA Animal Shelter, a registered nonprofit organization, has been helping homeless animals find new homes in central Ohio since 1975.

Tics in children are quite common Tics are sudden, involuntary, repetitive movements (motor tics) or sounds (vocal tics). The most common motor tics are frequent eye blinking, nose twitching and head shaking. Common vocal tics include humming, grunting or saying actual words. Some of these tics are complex and include large parts of the body (kicking, stamping). About 3 million to 6 million Americans experience tics regularly. Tics are more common in children, where one in four has a tic during the school years. Tics are five times more common in boys than in girls. Nine out of 10 children who have tics, however, will experience significant improvements in the symptoms by they time they reach adulthood. Tics are the most frequent symptom of Tourette syndrome, though it isn’t the only symptom. For a patient to be diagnosed as having TS, he or she has to have motor and vocal tics for at least one year. Impulsivity, attention deficit disorder, at-
tention deficit hyperactivity disorder and o b s e s s ive compulsive behaviors ( r e p e t i t ive thoughts and PEDRO movements) WEISLEDER are commonly seen in patients with TS. Cursing, which is the most publicized symptom of TS, is exceedingly rare. Stress sometimes can make tics more severe, frequent or longer in duration. Many children with tics report the urge to perform said tic, though some can suppress this for a short time. As tension builds, though, it eventually has to be released as a tic. If a child is concentrating on controlling a tic, it might be difficult to focus on other tasks, such as schoolwork. Because tics are outside a child’s control, children should not be disciplined for exhibiting them. In most patients, the symptoms of TS are mild and not nec-
essarily an indication of a more serious disorder. For that reason, physicians at Nationwide Children’s Hospital tend to avoid prescribing medications for the condition. Moderate to severe cases of TS can be treated with psychological therapy (habit-reversal therapy) or one of a series of prescription medications. It is important to know, however, that there is no single medication that is helpful to all individuals with tics or TS. For more information on tics and TS, as they relate to children, parents should consult their primary-care physician. Nationwide Children’s Hospital offers treatment for severe cases, and more information is available from the Tourette Syndrome Association of America. Visit www.tsausa.org. Dr. Pedro Weisleder is associate professor and director of the child-neurology residency program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital — The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Veterans return to Point du Hoc By MICHAEL J. MAURER ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Last July, when he was 89 years old, James “Pee Wee� Martin celebrated the 65th anniversary of America’s victory in World War II with a reprise of his youth: He made a parachute jump. He wants to do it again this year. For most of the past 66 years since the war ended, Martin has lived on 50 acres near Dayton, in a house he and his wife built themselves. “I do all the things I used to do, just not as much,� Martin said. “We heat with wood and I split the wood. I have a backhoe and I mix concrete.� On June 3, Martin will join Johnstown resident Don Jakeway and Woodsfield resident Herman Zerger in a special trip to Normandy for this year’s D-Day celebration. Jake, Zerg and Pee Wee, as they are known, will be traveling with a cohort of more than a dozen friends and family, courtesy of a trip organized by New Albany resident Mark Easton, who traveled to Normandy last year with Zerg. Easton and Zerg are both friends
of former senator Max Cleland, now secretary for battlefield monuments. “We have been invited by Max Cleland and President Obama to the Point du Hoc rededication,� Easton said, noting that the famous D-Day landmark has been undergoing repairs. “The last big event there was President Reagan did a big speech there in 1984, the 40th anniversary of D-Day.� Zerg and Easton and friends will start the trip May 28, retracing Zerg’s battles in Italy. On June 3, Jake and Pee Wee will fly into Charles De Gaulle Airport. Pee Wee has not been to Europe since 1964, when he and his wife were feted by the Dutch government Jake was in Europe last in 1991. This will be Zerg’s seventh trip. All the men remember clearly months of fighting, harrowing near misses, lost soldiers and severe wounds. “I was in a foxhole next to (Monte) Cassino, and at that time that was the heaviest concentration of bombs dropped in the war up till that time, on the abbey,� Zerg said, remembering “And they dropped me in a foxhole. It was several hours. Wave after wave
of bombers went over. I was deaf for a pretty long time.� He can remember battles where a thousand men died. He remembers entering Rome. “We entered Rome on June 5, the day before D-Day,� Zerg said. “I remember marching past the Coliseum and the general was standing up in the Jeep, and thousands of Italians were cheering us on.� Jake remembers the Battle of the Bulge, the snow, German snipers killing his men one by one. “Snow was two three feet deep, and a sniper shot two of my men,� Jake said. “I only had six men. I decided we were going to go out and get the man, get the sniper. I’m walking through the snow, and I knew something was not right, I just had a bad feeling, and I look over and laying right there was the sniper pointing his Mauser rifle at me. All he had to do was pull the trigger and he could have killed me. I turned real slowly and he threw up his hands, and so did another one right beside him.� Not too long after, Jake remembers going to bed with his hands trembling with fright. The next day he was shot.
“I got shot right through the chest,� Jake said. “When I came to the medic was taking my boots off. I had a .45 in my holster and I said, ‘What do you think you’re doing? If I can get this .45 out you’ll never wear them.’He started crying.� In the ambulance, with some wounded German soldiers, Jake’s stretcher broke, so that he was wrapped in canvas. The ambulance drove off the road, rolling downhill into a stream. Everyone was killed except Jake. At their age—the youngest is Zerg, at 87—they are familiar with their friends dying. All are in good health. None considers himself wounded by the war; rather the opposite. “It is an honor and a privilege to be a part of history,� Pee Wee said. “I really feel sorry for people of my generation who did not Photo by Rebecca Padula/ThisWeek get a chance to go, because it’s the greatest experience you’re going (From left) World War II veterans Herman “Zerg� Zerger, Jim “Pee to have in your lifetime. It’s never Wee� Martin and Don “Jake� Jakeway will visit France for the 67th going to happen like that again.� anniversary of the invasion of Normandy next month.

After losing three consecutive OCC-Ohio Division games May 2-5 by a combined score of 175, the Grove City High School softball team was searching for answers. The Greyhounds, who lost last year’s Division I state final 100 to Massillon Perry, had fallen out of the running for the OCCOhio title and were struggling to get clutch hits. However, in the week that followed, Grove City’s play picked up. The Greyhounds won nonleague games over Hilliard Bradley 9-4 on May 7, Watterson 13-6 on May 9 and Canal Winchester 15-5 on May 10, before beating Pickerington North 6-5 on May 11 in their league finale. The Greyhounds then defeated Olentangy Liberty 9-1 in the second round of the Division I district tournament May 12. They took a five-game winning streak into a district semifinal against 10th-seeded Teays Valley on May 18. Fourth-seeded Grove City reached a district semifinal for the sixth consecutive season. The winner advances to play thirdseeded Groveport or Watterson in a district final Thursday, May 19, at Pickerington Central. “We’re getting some timely hits,” said coach Ted Williams, whose team has reached a district final in five of the past six years and has won three district titles. “We’re getting a total team effort. Everyone’s taking their turn.” During its five-game winning streak, Grove City has hit six home runs, including grand slams by Maddie Hottman and Amber Bova. “After those losses, we practiced and we practiced and we practiced. Our bats started clicking,” said freshman Rachael Ash, who hit two home runs. “It’s not just one or two people. We’re getting a few people who can hit. It’s making a big difference.” The power surge began against Watterson. After the Eagles took a 6-0 lead in the top of the second inning, Ash led off the bottom of the second with a homer and the Greyhounds scored another run before hitting into a triple play. “I thought that might hurt us, but then we came back and scored three runs in the bottom of the third and then Maddie Hottman hit a grand slam in the fourth inning,” Williams said. “We’re not chasing bad pitches anymore. We’re moving people around and getting the hits.” “Home runs get everyone pumped up,” Ash added. “It helps the whole team. Everyone gets back into the game. Against Watterson we were down 6-0. In the past we might have given up at that point, but we completely turned it around.” Ash, who also hit a two-run homer against Liberty, said the veterans from last year’s tournament run have taught her what

Grove City slugs path to final By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Grove City High School baseball team’s bats remained hot on a chilly, wet day May 16 at home. The Greyhounds scored six runs in the first inning and five in the seventh in a 16-8 win over Olentangy Orange in a Division I district tournament semifinal. Grove City improved to 18-10 and plays the winner of top-seeded Pickerington North and Worthington Kilbourne in a district final May 19 at Hilliard Davidson. Grove City scored 31 runs in its first three tournament games and added a 15-
14 win over Westerville Central in a regular-season game on May 14. “I like the way our team has come together,” coach Ryan Alexander said. “We battled through some adversity that we had early in the season. We started out the season 2-5, so where we’ve come from that point has been tremendous. We’re swinging it a lot better than we were at the beginning of the year, and I knew that was going to be the one thing that drove us is how we swung the bat. That’s really improved since those first seven games of the season.” Against eighth-seeded Orange, ninthseeded Grove City batted around in the first, scoring six times off Pioneers starter
Joe Haskins and reliever Luke Wolford. T.J. DeVore had a two-run double and Drew Nankivell added an RBI double. The Greyhounds added two runs in the second on DeVore’s two-run single. Orange scored in the second and third to make it 8-2, but Grove City answered with two runs in the fourth. Nankivell had an RBI triple and Ken Reichle added an RBI single. The Pioneers cut the deficit to 10-8 with two runs in the fourth and four in the fifth, with Bill McCague’s two-run homer in the fourth highlighting the rally. Grove City batted around in its fiverun seventh, led by Jimmy Gravett’s RBI double.
Orange’s comeback forced Alexander to use his top three pitchers. Mitchell Stephens went the first 4 2/3 innings to earn the win. He allowed seven hits, struck out three and walked none. Brandon Gooch and Drew Artrip pitched in relief. Alexander hoped to have Artrip ready for the district final. DeVore led Grove City’s 18-hit attack with three hits and five RBI. Nankivell had a triple, double, single and two RBI, Reichle singled twice and doubled and Stephens and Caleb Woodson each had three hits. “It’s great to play well,” said NankivSee BASEBALL, page C2

Grove City High School senior Joey Hemphill is looking to close a successful prep tennis career with a strong showing in the postseason. Hemphill will represent the Greyhounds in the Division I district tournament on Friday and Saturday, May 20-21, at Hilliard Davidson. Hemphill earned the berth by finishing third in the sectional on May 12 and 14 at Pickerington Central. The top four singles players and doubles teams advanced. Hemphill is the first district qualifier for coach Ron Smith, who is in his eighth season. “It’s a pretty great achievement,” Hemphill said. “I’m proud of myself. It’s been a great time. It’s exciting.”
man season, reached a district qualifying match last season at sectional but lost to Pickerington Central’s Mason Roese 7-6, 6-3. That loss inspired Hemphill to work harder in the offseason and helped lead to his success this spring. “That is why it was very, very exciting to make it this year,” Hemphill said of advancing to district. “I’ve been practicing hard over the winter. This was my senior year, so I really wanted to make it my best year. It’s pretty emotional and everything, and I just wanted to go out with a bang. I’ve been really focused and driven this year, and I’ve been playing good tennis.” Hemphill won his first three matches at sectional to earn the

Kowaleski takes successful step in recovery By JARROD ULREY
At a glance
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The road to a full recovery continued for Grove City High School sprinter Nick Kowaleski at the OCC-Ohio Division championships May 12 and 14 at Pickerington North. After being a Division I regional qualifier last season in the 100 meters, Kowaleski strained his left hamstring in the Greyhounds’ opening meet March 26 at Watkins Memorial. He returned in late April with an eye on making it to the state meet in either the 100 or 200. At the league meet, the team’s lone senior took another step toward that goal by placing second in the 100 in 11.51 seconds, just .06 behind Pickerington North’s Stephon Goodwin. Kowaleski had the best preliminary time in the 200 (23.22) on May 12 but elected to scratch from the final two days later. “I’ve been saving it for these two weeks,” Kowaleski said. “(My hamstring) felt good in the 100. After that, I was tired and sore and nowhere near 100 percent. (At district) I’ll do the 100 and 200 and if everything goes right, I should make it (to regional) with relative ease.” The boys are competing in the Division I district 2 meet at Hilliard Bradley, which will hold its running finals at noon Saturday, May 21. Grove City was last with 27.5 points in the eight-team league meet. Also having a strong performance in the OCC meet for the Grove City boys
Arlington’s Michelle Botomogno (31-5 3/4). Sarah Hunter took third in the 300 hurdles (47.91) and added an eighth-place finish in the 200 (27.67), Kendal Witherup was sixth in the 100 hurdles (17.43) and Tia Smith placed seventh in both the 1,600 (5:41.2) and 3,200 (12:13.91). The girls 400 relay (53.78) and 3,200 relay (11:14.47) both were seventh. “Samantha Downey got second in the shot put, and the girl that beat her only got her by a couple of inches,” coach Glenn Blue said. “She’s going to probably need to throw 34 or 35 feet to make it to the regional. I think that Sarah Hunter can get (to regional) in the 300 hurdles, and I think Tia Smith has a chance in the two-mile as does Samantha in the shot put and discus.” For the boys team, the 3,200 relay was fifth (8:24.7), the 800 relay took sixth (1:44.22) and the 400 relay placed seventh (50.67). In the 1,600, each of the Comets’three competitors ran personal-best times as Donovan Wonacott placed fifth (4:30.14), Will Doering was sixth (4:31.56) and Kyle Dyer placed 11th (4:36.85). Dyer also added a fifth-place finish in the 800 (2:01.26). “Our (3,200 relay) has a chance (to get to regional) if they can put it together,” Blue said. “All three of our boys ran real well in the mile and Kyle Dyer had a pretty good meet. Most of our boys are freshmen, so we’re trying to get them some experience.”

Ready Roundup
Softball team overcomes adversity to advance By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Emotions ran high throughout the Ready High School softball team’s 7-5 victory over East Knox in a Division III district semifinal May 16 at Pickerington Central. In the first inning, No. 3 hitter Dani Pugh doubled and came in to score on a double by Erin Bennett. On Pugh’s scoring slide into home, she broke her leg in two places. “My dugout just went quiet,” coach Nick Joseph said. “Our trainer was there, and the trainer took her to urgent care immediately. She was back before the game was over.” During the innings that followed, Ready tied the game at 3 on a two-run home run by Sam Curry and added two runs each in the fifth and seventh innings to advance to a district championship game for the 10th time in 11 seasons. The Silver Knights, who were seeded eighth for the district tournament, played top-seeded Liberty Union in a district final May 18. “We got down but we came back,” Joseph said. “We’ve been playing fairly well. All of a sudden we changed a few things around and Dani had been hitting well and Haley Widner has jumped on fire for us.” Pugh, a shortstop who signed with Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne, entered the East Knox game hitting .526. Her replacement was freshman Haylee Patel.
If Ready beat Liberty Union, it will face Lucasville Valley or Portsmouth West in a regional semifinal May 26 at Lancaster. The last time the Silver Knights faced Portsmouth West was when they beat the Senators 4-1 in a 2006 regional semifinal. •The boys track and field team is competing in the Division III district meet at Gahanna and the girls team is competing in the Division II district meet at Hamilton Township. Running finals in both meets will be held Saturday, May 21. At the CCL championships that concluded May 14 at Columbus School for Girls, the girls were third and the boys were fifth. Emily Morris won her third consecutive conference title in the shot put with a throw of 42 feet. She also placed among the top seven in the discus in each of her prep seasons, winning the title this year with a throw of 112-1. Although Michelle Kaiser was a state qualifier in cross country in 2009 and a regional qualifier last fall, she took up the 300-meter hurdles earlier this season and finished second (48.46 seconds). Other strong finishes for the girls team were turned in by Holland Jones in the long jump (second, 15-1/4), the 3,200 relay of Nikki Brown, Kaiser, Elli Moehrman and Abby Schofield (second, 10:14.82), the 400 relay of Clare Bochy, Carly Culbertson, Jones and Caitlin McAndrew (third, 51.61) and the 800 relay of the same four (third, 1:49.83).

The performance of Kaiser, according to coach Dean Tower, complemented the strong performances by Frye, Morris and Slone. “(Kaiser) has always said she’d like to run the low hurdles, so I said, ‘Why don’t you give it a try’a few weeks ago,” Tower said. “She’s run it five times, and she real-

We feel that Ready will return a solid team for 2012 considering that we started one junior, three sophomores and one freshman this year. We will miss the hard work and contributions from our six seniors.” •The boys tennis team will lose one senior who played the entire season in Jake Happ. The Silver Knights went 4-8 overall and 1-3 in the CCL, including losing to DeSales 5-0 on May 10 and beating Hartley 3-2 on May 11.

Continued from page C2 game, we had won four in a row and our players were playing good baseball,” coach Scott Todd said. “We were getting good hitting, good pitching and our defense was solid. The players were rewarded for all their hard work by winning in the first round of the tournament. “Against Gahanna, we were maybe one play away from pulling the upset of a team ranked in the top 20 (16th) in the state. These players have practiced really hard and have improved tremendously since the beginning of the year.”

Gahanna Herb Day to feature heirloom plants on May 21 By MARLA K. KUHLMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers
New at this year’s May Herb Day will be heirloom vegetable plants like Brandywine and Kentucky beefsteak tomatoes that residents can purchase for their own gardens. May Herb Day will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 21, at Creekside Park & Plaza, 123 Mill St., and at the Ohio Herb Education Center, 110 Mill St., in Gahanna. Valeria Hamill said Herb Day visitors should expect an “absolutely fantastic” event with daylong herb sales, educational displays and herbal, garden-related and artisan vendors. Hamill recently was named director of the Ohio Herb Education Center (OHEC) following the resignation of Cathy Phillips. “We have a new vendor, Circa Plants, who will put out the heirloom plants,” Hamill said. “A lot of businesses don’t even sell those anymore. I think the community will embrace that in celebration of the past.” Other heirloom tomatoes for sale will be red beefsteak, yellow
pear, sweet pea currant, Cherokee purple, mortgage lifter, Tiny Tim, Amish paste, hillbilly, German grape and oxheart. Pepper varieties will include sweet banana, Anaheim Chile, early jalapeño, hot paper lantern (a red habañero), Jefferson’s bullnose sweet, Hungarian hot wax, mini chocolate bell, California wonder sweet bell, ancho poblano, long cayenne and alma paprika. An assortment of native Ohio, climbers and historic ornamentals also will be available. “We’ll have a variety of about 100 herbs,” Hamill said. Visitors will have an opportunity to sample various herbs, including a tea called “Herbal Surrender” that’s made exclusively for the OHEC. “Three years ago, I was sick, and the former director brought me a sample of the tea,” Hamill said. “It’s wonderful. It was calming and energizing.” The all-organic tea includes peppermint, spearmint, lemon balm and lavender, among other ingredients. Hamill said the spotlight this year would shine on horseradish, the herb of the year.
Wendy Winkler, OHEC education coordinator, said a display of horseradish would be set up. “It’s a funny-looking perennial,” she said. “It has medicinal qualities. It was used in salves to decrease swelling. Most people are more familiar with it as (a sauce). It really packs a punch.” Winkler said visitors would see an assortment of dips and unexpected things to do with herbs. “I’ll offer plantings for the kids,” she said. “They will have the opportunity to put in kid-friendly plants in the ground. It’s kind of an adopt-a-plant. I’ll make up a sheet on all of those plants, explaining what they’re good for. They can come back on harvest day and take (their plant) home.” Winkler said the herbs are the main attraction of the day. “People are here early, picking out what looks like the healthiest plants to put in their gardens,” she said. “I think that’s a big draw. They like to touch and smell and, in some cases, taste. It’s a very sensory day. Next to that, people like to try samples.” For more about the center, visit www.ohioherbcenter.org or call (614) 342-4380.
