Olde Reynoldsburg

Residents oppose rerouting trucks By DAVID S. OWEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Some residents who live on Graham Road say they do not want truck traffic rerouted from Jackson Avenue onto their street. As a result, the Olde Reynoldsburg Strategic Plan was put on hold by the community development committee Monday for further discussions. The action comes one week before

what would have been the final reading by city council of legislation for the plan on May 23. City development director Lucas Haire said the Olde Reynoldsburg Strategic Plan was devised because as the city has continued to grow, the Olde Reynoldsburg area has become its geographic center once again, but is underused. He said the main focus of the plan is to create a vision for what Olde Reynoldsburg could and should be in

the future, making it a successful business destination. Part of the plan says greater use of off-street parking and planned public parking off of Jackson Avenue will make the section of road between Hannah Ashton Middle School and East Main Street a key pedestrian link to Main Street businesses. The plan suggests efforts should be made to make this link pedestrian-friendly by rerouting the designated truck route

away from Jackson Avenue, thus also making the area safer for children walking to the school. The plan does not say truck traffic should be rerouted to Graham Road, but planning administrator Matt Hansen said that was discussed in some early steering committee meetings. “There could be other options that we haven’t fully investigated yet,” he said. “As far as it being a recommendation, I thought it would be more appropriate

to leave it open for further study.” Resident Gary Knapp, who lives on Graham Road, said he opposes any consideration of rerouting of truck traffic from Jackson Avenue. “We don’t want it on Graham Road … I would just as soon stop it now as to get into a big hassle, filling this place with people complaining and getting upset about it,” Knapp said. “It impacts See TRUCK TRAFFIC, page A2

Disaster in Alabama

Church aims to help tornado relief efforts By DAVID S. OWEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Members of the Reynoldsburg United Methodist Church are organizing a youth relief mission to tornado-ravaged Alabama over Memorial Day weekend. Church spokesperson Brenda Hauser said the idea for the mission was inspired by Pickerington High School Central junior Sarah Steele, who is actively involved in the church’s youth group. Hauser said one victim, Jessica Petty, a resident of Huntsville, Ala., the sister of one of the church’s teaching pastors, Tasha Levert, had fled the area to visit her sister after the tornadoes hit the area in late April. She said Petty was showing church members photos of the devastation in and around Huntsville when Steele pitched the idea for a relief mission to the area.

School officials say the construction of a new elementary and high school on Summit Road is going well. One is expected to open on schedule and the other ahead of schedule. The $60-million project began about a year ago and is part of the last phase in the district’s overall renovations, district spokesperson Tricia Moore said. “Overall, things are going pretty smoothly,” she said. “We are definitely under budget, and all the renovations are on time.” Moore said construction of the new elementary school has been ahead of schedule and is expected to be completed by the end of May “We’re hoping to have possession of it by the end of the month,” she said. District business manager Ron Strussion said staff members likely would begin moving in over summer. “But the fact that it is ahead of schedule is a good thing,” he said. As for the new high school, although much has been done, much work remains to be completed, but it is expected to be open in time for the 2011-12 school year. “It still has a bit of work to be done, like we’ve known all along. … It’s a tremendously ambitious project,” Moore said. “We’re in good shape, but we’re sweating it every day just to make sure every detail falls into place, and you can’t afford to get behind by a minute.” See NEW BUILDINGS, page A3

“There’s a lot of people out there that can’t afford smoke detectors or don’t have one or they go bad because there is a shelf life on them of about 10 years,” Bryan said. “We just think this is a good way to help out the community and ensure the safety of the community and it is really like a proactive approach to fire safety.”

In 2009, Home Depot and the fire department worked together to purchase and donate a generator to assist a 9-month-old girl in Reynoldsburg who suffers from bronchial malacia, a problem with the lungs in which the airways do not stay open as they should.

TRUCK TRAFFIC Continued from page A1 where I live. I grew up in that area and I don’t want to see it changed at all … I’m 58 years old and it’s been like that for the 58 years I’ve known it.” Resident John Vingle, a former city council member who also lives on Graham Road, said he also opposes any effort to reroute truck traffic. Vingle said even if the plan only suggests the change, people may believe it is really going to happen. “Five years from now, there may be a whole new council or a new mayor, and they might read this plan and say, ‘we’re supposed to do this,’” Vingle said. He suggested the city should consider realigning the corner of Main Street and Lancaster Avenue (state Route 256), which he said would be the best way to handle truck traffic moving up to Main Street. Graham Road resident Barb Strussion, who

is also a Truro Township trustee, wrote a letter to the city saying she is opposed to rerouting truck traffic onto Graham. Strussion said she and her husband, Ron, have lived on Graham Road for 46 years and it is already a heavily traveled road. To add truck traffic to the mix would not only affect the aesthetics of the road but will become a safety issue as well, she wrote. Truro Township emergency vehicles use Graham Road regularly, she said, and at present, motorists are able to pull off to the side of the road to allow them to get by, but that would not be the case with truck traffic. “State Route 256 should be the route for heavy truck traffic and semis … a timed traffic light at Main Street and 256 is the sane option,” Strussion said. Councilwoman Leslie Kelly, who chairs the community development committee, suggested the Olde Reynoldsburg Strategic Plan be put on hold the committee’s June 6 meeting in case more residents have more questions.

DETECTORS Continued from page A1 “We’ve fostered a pretty good working relationship with Home Depot, working with them in the past and it’s just a way of giving back to the community,” Bryan said. He said with a total of 150 smoke detectors to give out, supplies are limited so only one smoke detector per person will be alloted. “If someone needs one, they can stop in, and/or they can contact Lt. Mike Shirey, who is in charge of the department’s fire prevention bureau at (614) 7291920,” Bryan said. “Either or, the stations have them, but if someone would need anything fire prevention-related they can get a hold of him, because the firefighters might out on a call when they stop in,” he said. Howard said the company has

always looked for ways to give back to the community. “We try to stay involved in the community and this is just another way and a good thing for the safety of everyone,” he said. Bryan said all homes should have smoke detectors, especially near the sleeping area, because people don’t smell smoke when they are asleep, and smoke is the biggest killer when a fire breaks out. “It’s a common misconception that people think they’ll smell smoke and wake up, and if that were the case, we would never have anyone who died in fires,” he said. “But the fact is, people are overcome by the smoke and the toxic gases that accompany that, the carbon monoxide that’s produced in a fire, and it just puts a person into a deeper sleep,” he said. dowen@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

The British are coming â€” for local soccer camp By DAVID S. OWEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers The Reynoldsburg Parks and Recreation Department will host a British Soccer Camp this summer in Civic Park. Parks and recreation department director Jason Shamblin said the camps will be held in two oneweek sessions, June 6-10 and Aug. 1-5, and will feature certified soccer coaches from England. The program is a chance for kids between the ages of 3 and 18 to learn the skills and techniques of soccer by experts from a country that holds a deep passion for the game, he said. The camps are sponsored by Challenger Sports of Cincinnati, Joe Medcalf, the companyâ€™s assistant regional director for Ohio and Kentucky, said Challenger Sports has been conducting British soccer camps in the United States for the past 20 years. In addition to coaching young players throughout the country, it also runs hundreds of free parent/coach soccer clinics in partnership with the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. He said the camps are more than a week of drills and skills: They also involve a daily regimen of foot-skills, technical and tactical practices and daily tournament play. â€œThey also help educate players in lessons on respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship,â€? Medcalf said. He said some of the soccer coaches have played the game in the United Kingdom since they were 5 years old.

â€œTheyâ€™ve been immersed in soccer since they were so young that they are naturally aware of the different elements of what is needed to become a better soccer player,â€? he said. Also, he said all the coaches are officially certified by the United Kingdomâ€™s Football Association. â€œSome of the guys have coached on professional teams and others have coached at academies, but all of the staff are FA-qualified, which is the standard of soccer in England,â€? Medcalf said. Shamblin said there are specific times set up for various age groups. Sessions and fees for the following age groups for both weeks are: â€˘ First Kicks, for ages 3-4, 9 a.m.-10 a.m., $73 â€˘ Mini Soccer, for ages 4-6, 10:30 a. m. to noon, or 5:30 p.m.to 7 p.m., $86 â€˘ Half-day camp for ages 6-16, 9 a.m. to noon or 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., $113 â€˘ Full-day camp for ages 6-16, 9 a.m. to noon and 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., $161 Medcalf said anyone can sign up for the camps up until the day they begin, but those who register within 10 days of the start day will pay an extra $10 fee. He said each player will receive a soccer ball, a camp jersey and an individual evaluation from the coaches at the end of the week. Those interested can register online at www.challengersports.com or by calling the Reynoldsburg Parks and Recreation Department at (614) 3226806. dowen@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

NEW BUILDINGS Continued from page A1 Strussion said remaining work at the new high school includes painting, flooring, glass installation and the completion of the performing arts center, which will provide about a 40,000square-foot space with the seats retracted. â€œItâ€™s big and it will hold 1,200 people, and the stage is big enough to hold the band, the orchestra and the chorus all at the same time,â€? Strussion said. The two new schools are being built on 68 acres on the east side of Summit Road, with the 209,000-square-foot high school accommodating about 1,050 students and the 55,130-square-foot elementary school housing about

450. Each school will have its own gymnasium and specialized courtyard for use as extended learning areas. Part of the land will have a wetlands developed at the northeast edge of the area, including two state-of-the art eco-labs, as well as a softball field and a practice field. Strussion said a new soccer field had been included on earlier site plans but later was omitted because the district already has adequate facilities for soccer and football at the existing high schoolâ€™s Livingston Avenue campus. He said the wetlands site would have to be graded and have a well drilled to feed the softball field, practice field and the open field. Overall, Strussion said, work

is on schedule but the large amount of rainfall in April made some work difficult. â€œWith all the rain weâ€™ve had, theyâ€™ve tried to do some grading in the wetlands, but the field had been too wet. It couldnâ€™t hold the equipment,â€? Strussion said. As the new high school opens, renovations will have begun to the existing Livingston Avenue high school and continue through the next school year. The $13-million project will include such improvements as new doors, masonry repair, new air-conditioning systems, a new computer network and a new security system.

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 and nasty 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.

is covered with tons of colorful, bell-shaped flowers. Fertilizing every other week really gives these guys what they need to perform their best. • Sweet potato vines: Every year a new color shows up to outshine the last. Black, chartreuse, bronze, pink and white ... you can’t go wrong with this aggressive trailer for a dramatic effect. • Ivy: Plain green, yellow and green, white and green — these little darlings complete the package. They fill in to cover bare spots and trail over in a wonderful, Victorian sort of way. • “Diamond Frost” euphorbia: This does to a hanging basket what baby’s breath does to a cut flower arrangement. Tiny, dangly, white flowers interweave their way through all the other flowers in the basket to make the basket look complete. • “Dragon Wing” begonias: You’ve heard me say before this is, by far, my favorite hangingbasket plant. Low maintenance! They have some height to them (about 8 inches at the most) but then they drape down over the sides of the basket with these beautiful glossy green leaves that complement the pale pink and red flowers. • Impatiens: They fill in completely to hide any dirt. Huge range of colors. Remember that giant ball of flowers I was talking about at Ameriflora? This is what was in them. After all the work of creating

your beautiful hanging basket, you’ll want to keep it looking it’s best. Follow these tips and you’ll be enjoying your basket all summer: Water:Yes, the rain is going to end and we will have to get our hoses out again. In the heat of the summer, water thoroughly until the water runs out the bottom of the basket. Wait 10 minutes and then water again. The only exception to this rule would be for tuberous begonias or any other plant with a succulent type stem. Just water them sparingly so they don’t rot. Fertilize:You want to have color, color, color, so you’ve got to feed your flowers. Fertilome has a water-soluble fertilizer with a high phosphorus content to promote extra, extra blooming. (That’s the middle number.) You’ll especially need to feed petunias and calibrachoa (“Million Bells”) as they are susceptible to chlorosis, which causes their leaves to yellow. Deadheading: Removing spent blooms not only makes the basket look better but helps the plant to put it’s energy toward making new blooms. Haircuts aren’t bad, either — especially for ranging plants such as petunias and sweet potato vines. After the long, gray winter, and this wet, wet spring, enjoying flowers in a hanging basket on your porch or deck is one of life’s little pleasures. Enjoy!

I must confess, I’m a hanging basket junkie. I think what really got me hooked was during Ameriflora ’92. My brother, Jon, planted a massive 40-inch hanging garden full of impatiens to hang under the tree on our site at Franklin Park. It was magnificent and quite the eye-popper since it looked like giant ball of color. Most of us don’t have anywhere to hang a 40-inch basket. Luckily, there are so many more choices these days than just the traditional plastic basket. The plastic basket is still perfectly fine, but now there are baskets made of moss, coco fiber, wrought iron, shaped into a cone, pots in a macrame hanger, giant ones lining Main Street — there are tons and tons of choices. But what they all have in common are the flowers. Not all flowers do well or rather, look their best, in a hanging basket. I’ve compiled a list of what I think are the best plants for hanging baskets. • Petunias: The color choices far outweigh the maintenance involved. However, not all petunias are alike. For baskets, I recommend the Supertunias or cascading type for that lovely, draping effect. • Ivy geraniums: Again, the color choices are many and they can forgive a forgetful waterer. I’m not saying don’t water them, but if you miss a few days, they will not be droopy. They definitely benefit from deadheading (removing spent blooms). • Calibrochoa (”Million Bells”): As the name suggests, this plant

AS IT WERE Continued from page A4 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 darkbrown 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 fami-

ly. 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 red-brick house of the Nelsons of Nelson Road.

Eagle Scout the â€˜catalystâ€™ for work at Pataskala park By MICHAEL J. MAURER

â€œThe park when he came to us was not being used as much as it should have been but he was kind of a catalyst for everything that has been happening there. â€œThe (Columbus) Clippers came out and redid the ball diamonds and put up this big, beautiful fence. The park is being used a lot more and the benches have been a great asset because people can sit and watch their children play.â€? Harris was responsible for organizing volunteers to do the work, raising money to pay for supplies and seeking donations of materials from the community. He collected about $450 in materials, with the largest donor being Carter Lumber, to build four benches. Harris, 15, has been in the scouts since first grade, when he

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Boy Scouts of America marked 100 years in 2010, prompting many scouts to seek the Eagle Scout designation, the highest rank available. Among them was Pataskala resident Zach Harris, a member of Troop 279, sponsored by United Methodist Church in Reynoldsburg. â€œThere were six of us, which was a record,â€? Harris said. Scoutmaster Justin Sayre said most years, Troop 279 will have two or three of its 30 members earn their Eagle Scout ranks. In addition to earning merit badges in topics such as citizenship, hiking, swimming and many others â€” Zach has earned 40 badges â€” scouts are required to perform a community service project. Harris, who lives near Municipal Park in Pataskala, remembered going to the park as a child, and when he went through the park last year he was appalled at the conditions. â€œThere were picnic tables in the river,â€? Harris said, noting that a decrepit walking path that had been abandoned. â€œIt was awful and I said I had to do

something about it.â€? Harris decided that benches near the playground areas would encourage people to come to the park and stay there longer. â€œI came up with the idea to buy benches from a company and install them, but they were about $600 and that was just too much

money,â€? Harris said. â€œI came up with the idea to build a flat-top bench, so you could look both ways.â€? To do the project, Harris had to obtain permission from the city of Pataskala, so he attended both a parks board meeting and also council meetings. Parks

board chair Jeni Ashbrook said Harrisâ€™ project stimulated volunteer work by several other organizations. â€œZach came to a parks board meeting with a plan, saying there is really no place for people to sit and watch their children on the playground,â€? Ashbrook said.

Scott Harris said. â€œHe has better understanding for what the younger scouts are going through and how to give them direction if they need it.â€? Sayre said the point of the service project is to emphasize the value of community. â€œHe did a great job planning and executing the project,â€? Sayre said. â€œHe obtained donations from community leaders, came up with the plans, recruited help and built the benches. â€œIt was a really good project and city council was pleased with the result.â€?

Diaz tries to add to state title boatload The magical high school tennis career of Watterson High School senior Chris Diaz is nearing its end. Diaz will compete in the Division II district tournament on Friday, May 20, and Saturday, May 21, at Columbus A c a d e m y, hoping to gain LARRY a berth in his LARSON fourth consecutive state tournament May 27-28 at Hilliard Davidson and to capture a third state championship. As a freshman, Diaz combined with his older brother, Philip, to win the Division I state doubles title. A year later, he and Philip finished as Division I state runners-up. With his brother moving on to college, Chris won the Division II state singles title last year top cap an undefeated season. This season, the Eagles standout also has been perfect as he heads into district play. Diaz said he is thoroughly enjoying his final high school season. “There’s always some pressure on you when you are a defending state champion, but I believe I have taken the level of pressure I feel down a little over the years. After Philip and I won when I was a freshman, I really thought my sophomore year was stressful and I think I have matured as a player and am trying to just have fun with these last two years. “My strength on the court right now is my speed and anticipation. I have to overcome my lack of size by being more aggressive on the court. I think my offensive skills have improved throughout high school and that has helped make my confidence level grow as well. Now I have to use my experience, plan my game and execute that plan every match. I have to continue to focus on what I do best and hope that results in wins.” Diaz is proud of what he has accomplished at Watterson and to be able to represent his school. “It has been a great feeling to represent my high school in a positive way,” he said. “I have been fortunate to contribute to the Watterson community and I am hoping to win the state singles championship again so I can leave my school on a good note. I am sure of one thing: I will continue playing as hard as I can and not let my nerves take over. It has been a wonderful four years.” Diaz’s time as a competitive tennis player won’t be ending at state. Next year, he will begin competing for Ohio State. “I am really excited to play for Ohio State and coach Ty Tucker,” he said. “I have always dreamed of playing and being part of the Ohio State athletic program. I know things will be really challenging for me, and I know I will have to work very hard to be successful.”

Reynoldsburg’s Dominik Seitzer finished third in the 800 meters in the league meet.

The Reynoldsburg High School boys track and field team is hoping that the best is yet to come for sprinters Johnny Pace and Mykel Traylor-Bennett. At the OCC-Ohio Division meet May 14 at Pickerington North, Pace edged Traylor-Bennett at the finish line to win the 200 meters, as the Raiders finished with 18 points in the event on the way to a team runner-up finish. Pace, a sophomore, is a first-year runner and Traylor-Bennett, a junior, didn’t compete a year ago, but both were looking to make an impact at the Division I, district 2 meet this week. The meet concludes Saturday, May 21, at Hilliard Bradley, with the top four finishers in each event advancing to the regional meet Wednesday, May 25, and May 27 at Pickerington North. Both runners also competed on the 400 relay and 800 relay along with Dionte

Brown and Tabeal Radney that finished fifth (44.3 seconds) and fourth (1:32.49), respectively, in the OCC-Ohio. “I’ve had a couple injuries this year, but I came out and had a good time,” TraylorBennett said. “We’re hoping to get a lot of points for our team and we’re starting to gain a lot of confidence.” “It feels good,” Pace said. “This is my first year running track and I’ve proven a lot.” The sprint duo complemented a distance corps that had high expectations heading into the league meet. At the OCC meet, junior Tsehaye Hiluf won the 3,200 (9:32.43) and senior Hiruy Abraha was second (9:40.48). In the 1,600, Hiluf was second (4:22.77), sophomore Dominik Seitzer took third (4:27.31) and Abraha was fourth (4:28.71). Seitzer also was third in the 800 (1:58.56). The Raiders’ 3,200 relay took second (8:13.51). LaVonne Gauthney won the shot put (55 feet, 9 1/2 inches) and was third in the discus (135-6) and Brown was fifth in the

long jump (20-2). Reynoldsburg finished second with 107 points behind Pickerington North (156) in the eight-team league meet, a significant improvement from a year ago when it had to settle for fourth. “The boys finished second, and that’s about the best we could have expected,” coach Denny Hammond said. “We had two sprinters, Stanley Peterson and Christian Ellis, make the finals of the 100, but they both got hurt (in preliminaries May 12). LaVonne Gauthney had a big day, as did Tsehaye and Hiruy. We found out we’ve got some guys that can run. For Johnny and Mykel to go one-two in the 200 in the OCC, we’re real happy with what they did, and Dionte Brown jumped well.” •The girls team scored 116 points in the OCC-Ohio meet to finish third, behind Pickerington Central (159) and Pickerington North (140.5).

The Reynoldsburg High School baseball team seemed destined for a losing season after dropping to 8-10 overall with a 7-0 loss to Gahanna on May 2.

People are a lot happier when you are winning. Right now, everyone is into the games and supporting their teammates and it’s a very positive atmosphere.”

Boys Tennis

Raiders realize offseason work will be key By PAUL BATTERSON

At a glance

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Reynoldsburg High School boys tennis coach Mark Mathias believes his team’s wall of fame is a great teaching aid to younger players. “Our guys see the names up on our wall of fame and they always ask what those players did and how they got to be that good,” he said. “I always tell them one of the things they did was work hard in the offseason. If you want to have some of the success that they had, you have to put in that time on the court.” Isaac Khan is taking that message to heart after losing in the second round of the Division I sectional tournament May 12 at Pickerington Central. The freshman defeated Thomas Worthington’s Matt Sisco 2-6, 6-1, 6-2 in the first round but lost to Westerville North’s Xan Lindow 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 in the second round. The top four finishers in singles and doubles advanced to the district tournament on Friday, May 20, and Saturday, May 21, at Hilliard Davidson. The Raiders did not have any district qualifiers. “The tournament showed how much I need to improve,” Khan said. “I need to work on not hurting myself and hitting good shots consistently.” Khan and the doubles team of senior Ryne Kitchen and junior Adam Edwards were the only Raiders to make it out of the first round. Kitchen and Edwards defeated Westerville North’s Chad Strahine and Jimmy Evans 6-0, 6-3 in the first round but lost to Olentangy Liberty’s Vick Chhabria and Matt Wong 6-1,

Ryne Kitchen is the lone senior that Reynoldsburg will lose this season, after finishing 9-8 overall and 4-3 in the OCC-Ohio Division. The Raiders placed fourth in the lerague standings.

6-1 in the second round. Also in doubles, sophomores Pope Lake and Brandon Person lost to Westerville Central’s Kevin Page and Mitra Patel 6-3, 6-3 in the first round. In singles, junior Sai Korada lost to Zanesville’s Chris Thompson 36, 6-0, 6-3 in the first round and sophomore Kyle O’Brien lost to Grove City’s Colin Randall 6-4, 6-3 in a play-in match.

The Raiders haven’t had a district qualifier since Brian Widdoes in singles and the doubles team of Patrick Chang and Scott Gandee in 2006. Khan was 4-1 in three-set matches this year, but a couple of factors worked against him in his match against Lindow. After winning the first set 6-4, Khan said an ankle injury and the fatigue of a long day over-

took him. “In the first round, (Sisco) started to hit a lot of good shots and I knew that if I tried to outhit him, it wasn’t going to work,” Khan said. “I tried hitting it back until he made the mistake. He just kept making mistakes. “In the second match, I was really mentally tired as well as being physically tired.” In the OCC-Ohio Division,

doubles team of Korada and Lake and the second-doubles team of Khan and O’Brien placed fourth. Kitchen was fifth at first singles. Reynoldsburg, which lost to Granville 4-1 on May 9 and defeated Hilliard Bradley 5-0 on May 10, was 8-8 overall before concluding the season against Olentangy Orange on May 17. The Raiders lose only one senior in Kitchen, who split time at first singles with Edwards. “It was kind of a rough spot for him being the lone senior,” Mathias said. “But he got through it and played some good matches for us.” In addition to Edwards, Khan, Korada, Lake, O’Brien and Person, expected to return are freshmen Zach Kahl and Yosef Maher. “The experience we have coming back is going to make a big difference, especially if they put the time and effort into it in the offseason,” Mathias said. “The potential is there, but potential is such a sticky word. It’s going to come down to how much they are willing to work.”

the Raiders went 4-3 and had 34 points to place fourth, behind Gahanna (7-0, 68), Pickerington North (6-1, 55) and Pickerington Central (5-2, 50), and ahead of Grove City (3-4, 26), Groveport (2-5, 16), Newark (1-6, 11) and Lancaster (0-7, 9).

Hartley Roundup

Softball team runs out of magic in district semifinal By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Hartley High School softball team’s ability to come back throughout the postseason put to rest any doubts in itself that might have been created from the sevengame losing streak that followed a 10-0 start. On May 11 in a second-round game of the Division II district tournament, the fifth-seeded Hawks used a six-run bottom of the seventh to beat seventh-seeded Jonathan Alder 13-12. Then in a district semifinal May 16 at Pickerington North, Hartley had the tying run on second base in the bottom of the eighth but couldn’t complete another rally during an 8-7 loss to Olentangy. The Hawks had trailed 2-0 and 7-5. The highlights against Jonathan Alder were read at school the next day and forwarded to members of the youth program as a form of inspiration. “We are used to having to make big plays,” coach Meghan Rowlands said. “To be down 2-0 early (against Olentangy), they played with a lot of pride. “We’ve had a rough few weeks. To start out 10-0 and then to lose seven in a row, I still think we’re a very good team.” The Hawks led 5-4 going into the top of the seventh of the district semifinal, but the Braves benefited from two errors to take a 7-5 lead. In the bottom of the seventh, Anna Kirk singled and scored on a double by Erin Collins. Cassie Plageman then doubled in Collins to send it to

extra innings. After Olentangy retook the lead in the top of the eighth, Nicole Weldon reached on a oneout slap hit up the middle in the bottom half of the inning before the final two batters were retired. Against the Pioneers, the Hawks finished with 22 hits. Plageman hit a two-run walk-off home run to score Emma Caputo to complete the rally. All of the runs in the final inning came with two outs. “It was unreal,” Rowlands said. “Truly I don’t think I could have written it better to come back

with two outs. It was so much fun.” •The third-seeded baseball team opened Division II district tournament play with a 6-1 second-round win over visiting Highland on May 12. That advanced the Hawks to a district semifinal May 18 against eighth-seeded Big Walnut. The winner will play for a district title Friday, May 20, at Grove City against fourth-seeded DeSales or Canal Winchester.

Raiders battled through difficult season, adversity By KEN KITCHEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The 2011 season was a struggle for the Reynoldsburg High School softball team. The Raiders, whose season ended with a 10-0, six-inning loss to Delaware on May 10 in the first round of the Division I district tournament, finished 417 overall and 0-14 in the OCCOhio Division, marking the second year in a row in which they failed to win a league game. Groveport finished first in the OCC-Ohio at 13-1, followed by Gahanna (11-3), Pickerington Central (10-4), Grove City (86), Pickerington North (6-8), Lancaster (4-10), Newark (410) and Reynoldsburg. “This was a rough season, due to unforeseen challenges,” coach Shannon Brown said. “Overall, we weren’t successful with winning, but the girls were successful in the lessons learned on and off the field. They faced many difficult situations, but they stuck together and stuck out a season that many would have just given up on. I am very proud of them.” Reynoldsburg won its season opener, defeating Grove City

Christian 11-5 on March 28, and defeated Bexley 10-4 on March 30 to improve to 2-1. Its only other wins were against Grandview (12-10 on April 9) and Whetstone (7-5 on April 30). Senior shortstop Sam Miller, a three-year starter, left the team after the third game and several other players missed time because of injury or illness. “When people got down on themselves, they couldn’t get back up,” senior Keri Lemley said. “We made too many mental errors.” The Raiders struggled offensively, averaging 3.4 runs a game.

ways there and we had minimal errors,” Lemley said. “The hitting just wasn’t always there.” Reynoldsburg loses four seniors in Lemley, Bri Peters, Tiffany Ricks and Sarah Wheeler. Expected to return are juniors Mariah Clark and Kayleigh Pope, sophomores Jessie Alianiello and Alex Huffman and freshmen Marissa Andrews and Hannah Pearson. “We are going to have a young

group next year, so hopefully that means we can start to build upon what they learned this year,” Brown said. “It’s always nice having a large young group of girls who get to play together throughout all four high school years.” Brown knows there is a lot of work to do before next season to improve and be competitive. “Most of my girls are now taking private lessons and are playing summer softball,” she

said. “This will hopefully mean we will be better prepared for next year. I think the girls are starting to realize what changes they need to make in order to be more successful on the winning side of things. I also have a lot more parent involvement than ever before, and that allows me more time to work on the things I need to work on to get better as a coach.” When asked what she would

tell the expected returnees, Lemley kept it simple. “Listen to your coaches and peers and take constructive criticism and have confidence in yourself,” she said. “They are not trying to bash you, they are trying to help you. “We had great coaches and they stuck with us, even through the bad.” www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

The Raiders were second in the 800 relay (1:43.03) and second in the 400 relay (48.49) but did not run the 1,600 relay. “The big show of the day was by Destinee in the 400,” Hammond said. “Diamond had a great day in the 200 and Faith had a great day. The girls were third because we just don’t have the numbers, although we have some good relays.”

Winning titles were Aisha Cavin in the 200 (24.58) and 400 (55.43), Destany Martin in the 100 (12.62), Chelsea Scott in the 100 hurdles (14.55) and 300 hurdles (45.09), the 400 relay of Nala Key, Deja Martin, Destany Martin and Scott (49.68) and the 800 relay of Cavin, Najah Greer, Maya Pedersen and Scott (1:45.27). A debate among the Hawks’ coaching staff was ongoing throughout the second day of the league meet about how the team’s relays would be comprised for the Division II district meet, which began May 17, continued May 18 and concludes Saturday, May 21, at Hamilton Township. “Aisha was just short of the state record last year in the 400, but she was also the state champion in the 200 as a freshman and the state runner-up as a sophomore,” Jones said. “Considering the times of the races, she can possibly give me more points if we place her in the 100. She’s ending her senior season really well, and she’s so versatile.” julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

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, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and obsessive-compulsive behaviors (repetitive thoughts and movements) 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 sympPEDRO toms of TS are mild and not WEISLEDER necessarily 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.tsa-usa.org.

RECYCLE.

REWARD.

by Greg VanHorssen CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE While much is often made of senior adults and youngsters with hearing loss, middle-aged adults are not as frequently-mentioned. As it turns out, this age group is not immune to hearing loss either. According to a new survey among people 45 to 54 years old, one in nine exhibited signs of hearing loss. This survey shows that, while the rate of hearing loss increases with age, it is a significant problem for those in middle age. When researchers tested the hearing of nearly 3,000 adults between the ages of 21 and 84, about one in seven had some hearing loss. Ninety percent of those examined who were older than 80 had lost some hearing. Hearing loss need not be an inevitable part of growing older. Living a healthy lifestyle and using hearing protection in noisy environments can help to prevent hearing loss in middle age. If you are not hearing as well as you used to, call ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS today at 614-654-4309 to schedule a complementary hearing & speech evaluation. On average, our patients travel 40 miles each way to save 25% to 70% on their hearing! Our office is located at 1000 Morrison Rd., Suite H, Gahanna. We are the only hearing clinic in Central Ohio using state-of-the-art computerized prescription analyzer with real-ear measurements. We offer the top ten hearing aid brands with zero risk trials, 0% interest programs, and we have been awarded the top health rating on Angie’s List. It pays to drive a few miles to save $1,000s of dollars! We handle Starkey, Phonak, Siemens, Unitron, MicroTech, GN ReSound, Rexton, Oticon, and Widex. Plus, we have the same products as NU-Ear, Audibel, AudioSync, and Miracle Ear, but you will save $1,000’s with us!

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. Tickets are $49/$46/$41. Call (614) 294-5200.

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.
