Tucker gets $145K, no health insurance

By CANDY BROOKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Thomas Tucker’s salary will increase by more than 20 percent when he becomes Worthington superintendent, but he will have to pay for his own health care, cell phone and local travel expenses.

The four-year contract approved by the Worthington Board of Education on June 1 provides for an annual salary of $145,000. Tucker’s current salary as Licking Heights superintendent is $119,000.

Worthington Kilbourne High School graduating seniors (from right) Charlotte Thrush, Evita Singh, Katie Shaffer, Dave Rahbolt and Bhavana Prasanna laugh after filing into the Greater Columbus Convention Center for their commencement ceremony on June 4.

Plans to convert a former restaurant into a bank and its corporate offices and eventually bring 50-60 jobs with it received approval from Worthington City Council on June 6.

Insight Bank expects to transform the long-vacant Dalt’s restaurant and adjacent office building into what would become the first major overhaul at the Shops at Worthington Place, the former Worthington Square.

“We’ve really stressed our space in the Polaris area,” said Harvey L. Glick, the bank’s president and CEO. “We look forward to a long-lasting relationship with the community.”

The 12,000-square-foot, twostory office building at 150 W. Wilson Bridge Road will provide the bank branch on the first floor,

The city is preparing a corridor plan for Wilson Bridge Road, with another discussion scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 9, at the Worthington Municipal Building.

The bank development plan approved by council includes variances for sideyard setback for a drive-up canopy; a frontyard setback for a flagpole and the number and area of freestanding, wall and directional signs.

Worthington Municipal Planning Commission member James Sauer expressed some concerns about the removal of trees.

“It really was a smooth process,” Worthington development coordinator Lynda Bitar said.

“The applicant had a really good team of design professionals, and they really worked hard to make this fit into the community.”

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

With school officially over for the year, Worthington shifts into summer gear this week.

That means something happening on the Village Green, downtown or at the high schools or libraries every week, at least.

The Saturday morning farmers markets are drawing crowds, and crops like strawberries soon will have people standing in lines early.

Market hours are 9 a.m. to noon.

Every Sunday at 7 p.m., a concert is planned for the Village Green. Like the markets, the concerts draw crowds, with most of the performances filling the northwest quadrant of the Green.

On June 18 and 19, the popular Worthington Arts Festival will continue a lineup of community events going on through early October, including the following: • June 18-19, Worthington Arts Festival, Village Green.

• Oct. 9, fall festival, Village Green.

The slated entertainers for the Family Concerts on the Green series are: • June 12, Simple Harmony, described as three voices blending in harmony, singing a wide range of songs.

• June 19, Steve Ball, with songs from the American Civil War. • June 26, Worthington Civic Band, with show tunes and

arrangements for all ages.

The Book Loft looks to attract wordsmiths with poetry club

By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Roger Tompkins wants to give central Ohioans a place to foster interest in poetry.

The co-owner of The Book Loft in German Village is helping to form a poetry club for people of all interest and skill levels.

“I think every poet wants to do better and people who haven’t published anything want to be discovered and be known to somebody besides themselves,” he said.

“And maybe the way to do it is through the people who have the same desire.”

Tompkins said he and many of his customers were vexed by the lack of poetry clubs in Columbus.

“We’re just trying to find out now who all is interested,” he said.

The public is invited to attend the next meeting on the subject, slated for 3 p.m. Saturday, June 18, at the bookstore, 631 S. Third St. Tompkins said he hopes to have the club functional by this fall.

Tompkins said he wants to keep things informal. Writers would share and discuss their works with their contemporaries and have their poetry critiqued by their peers.

“We decided to make this thing a fun thing,” he said. “We’re kind of opening the door to make this possible. We’re not going to charge. The membership is going to be open and free.”

Tompkins also has a personal interest: He’s a poet, too.

“I just wanted to do it because I like books, I like reading and I like poetry,” he said.

Steve Abbott, a professor of

TUCKER

English at Columbus State Community College and a poetry-book editor, said he is supportive of the Book Loft’s goal of establishing a poetry club.

“There are very few, so clearly there’s a need for it,” he said.

Abbott, who is part of a formal poetry workshop at the local Pudding House Publications, said there is benefit to a club that offers serious appraisals of work, not just affirmation. Likewise, emerging poets must be able to accept criticism if they want to improve, he said.

“That’s the problem:You sometimes get a self-help approach to poetry,” said Abbot, who edited the 2008 “Cap City Poets,” an anthology compiling the work of 74 central Ohio poets, and two chat books.

with more than $4 a gallon of diesel.

In addition, CNG reduces carbon emissions by as much as 90 percent. The initial infusion of 24 CNG vehicles for the city will reduce emissions as much as if 96 cars were taken off the road annually.

“Columbus is committed to being a regional and national leader in the clean fuel movement,” Tyson, chairwoman of the finance committee, was quoted as saying.

The project was supported through a grant Clean Fuels Ohio received from the U.S. Department of Energy in 2009. The total cost of the CNG station is $4.2 million, with $1.1 million coming from the Department of Energy.

“While the station is for use by the city of Columbus fleet, it will also be open to area fleets and the general public,” the announcement stated.

“We’re excited for the station

to open later this fall,” Clean Fuels Ohio executive director Sam Spofforth said in the statement.

“With the rise in diesel and gasoline prices we have seen an increased interest from fleets to convert to CNG. This station will offer businesses, governments and individual motorists in our area another option and help the city save thousands of dollars each year.”

This green fleet initiative is part of the Ohio Advanced Transportation Partnership that includes 27 partners across the state led

by Clean Fuels Ohio. In total, Clean Fuels Ohio received $11 million in grant funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Clean Cities Program for its partners.

Clean Fuels Ohio is a statewide nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the use of cleaner domestic fuels and efficient vehicles to the transportation industry, government, and the general public.

Mayor Michael B. Coleman was joined last week by Councilmember Priscilla R. Tyson, representatives of Clintonvillebased Clean Fuels Ohio and Columbia Gas of Ohio to break ground on the city’s first compressed natural gas station.

It will be, according to the mayor’s spokesman, “the largest fast-fill station of its kind in Ohio and likely in the Midwest.”

It is being built at 4211 Groves Road on the South Side and is expected to be open this fall.

“This is more than just a fueling station,” Coleman said in a statement. “This marks a moment in history as we transition to a diversified and cleaner fuel for our fleet and our community.”

Columbus expects to eliminate about 40,000 gallons of diesel fuel a year, saving approximately $60,000 to $90,000 in fuel costs, the announcement stated.

CNG is averaging $1.50 per gas gallon equivalent compared

As with Conrath, the board will pay Tucker’s share of the State Teachers Retirement System (STRS) contribution.

Districts are required to pay 16 percent of a superintendent’s salary into STRS. The superintendent’s share is 10 percent. In Worthington and in all similar districts, the board pays that 10 percent.

Like Conrath, Tucker will receive 25 paid vacation days, not including legal holidays.

Precycle group wins Emerald for bringing green to the streets

By CANDY BROOKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A closer look

Precycle Day has won countywide recognition for being such a gem.

The Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO) awarded a Central Ohio Emerald to Fred Yaeger and the committee that created and continues to organize the annual event.

SWACO each year hands out Emeralds to green leaders in Franklin County. The Sustainable Worthington Precycle Committee won this year in the Good Neighbor category.

The committee was honored at a SWACO luncheon last month, and on June 6 was congratulated

by Worthington City Council.

In presenting the award, SWACO representatives said the group fought waste at the street level by creating the curbside

household-to-household event.

Precycle Day started in 2010 and was continued in April of this year.

Beginning on a Wednesday at 6 p.m. and continuing through the next day, residents are invited to set along the curb unwanted but still usable items. Anyone may come along and pick up what they think they can use.

Hundreds of households took part in the event in the first year.

Rain dampened turnout this year, but many reusable items still got

new homes.

Yaeger said Precycle Day meets the three hallmarks of sustainability: people, planets, and profits.

Neighbors often form bonds as they trade at the curbside; recycled items avoid the landfill; and no money changes hands.

“It doesn’t cost anything to shop at the curb,” he said.

Though the original idea was his, Yaeger is adamant that Precycle Day involves a whole committee of planners, plus the city of Worthington.

Precyle committee members are Dave Buchanan, Greg DeLong, Paula Deming, Joanne Dole, Jennifer Lyon, Richard Lamprey, Kate Midnight, Lucie Pollard, Karen Young, and Yaeger.

Rob Chandler and Dave Groth of the Worthington Department of Public Service, city manager Matt Greeson, and city council

also provide valuable support, he said.

“This is truly a community-wide effort,” Yaeger said.

Other 2011 Emerald winners were Nationwide Children’s Hospital; Ohio State University; Kurtz Brothers of Central Ohio; Abercrombie & Fitch; PattyCake Bakery; the city of Gahanna; Otterbein University; and the Linden McKinley Stem Academy.

As it were

Trash: an ever-present problem for a growing city In the wake of a recent threeday holiday weekend, I was reminded of — among other things — the remarkable cleanliness of Ohio’s capital city.

Columbus is certainly not unique in the cleanliness of its streets and the remarkable efficiency of its refuse removal. But anybody who has recently been to a “filthy city” — and we will politely not mention any names — probably has thankfully returned to Columbus and assumed that the metropolis of central Ohio has always been this efficiently clean.

Of course, that assumption would not be correct.

For much of the first 100 years of its history, Columbus was a pretty dirty place. This should not really be all that surprising.

Through most of human history, cities have been places where large numbers of people have gathered for one reason or another. And generally, they have been more interested in those reasons — to do business, to worship, to have a good time — than they have been inclined to pick up after themselves.

Columbus is a created city.

There was not all that much on the “high banks opposite Franklinton at the forks of the Scioto” in 1812 except a lot of forest and a very large Indian mound that gave Mound Street its name.

It was at this pristine location that the Ohio General Assembly decided to make a new home.

And even though only a few hundred people lived here at first, it did not take them long to make a mess.

One of the very first ordinances passed by the Borough of Columbus in 1816 as the legislature was preparing to meet here for the first time dealt with the condition of the streets, such as they were.

The ordinance of May 23, 1816, forbade “the obstruction of the thoroughfares by lumber, firewood, stable garbage, earth from cellars or any other means.”

The mayor, Jarvis Pike, could impose fines if he saw fit.

When one notes that the mayor was making money by removing the stumps from Statehouse Square for the governor in one of the state’s first public works contracts, it probably will not come as a shock to learn that the stumps in High Street were ignored. No one was paying to have them removed.

And no one was really complying with the street-cleaning ordinance, either.

Mayor Pike soon decided not to seek re-election and entered into several private-sector businesses. His successors were not better, and may have been worse, at keeping the trash of the city under control.

A few examples: On June 26, 1820, the city marshal was ordered to “remove any logs from Broad Street, west of Fourth Street, that may have grown on the ground and is fallen thereon.” There is no record that the marshal did any such thing.

In 1832, the residents of lots on High Street from Broad to Main streets were ordered “to collect the dirt into convenient

heaps on Saturday of each week.” There is no record that the residents complied with that order, eiED ther.

LENTZ “Dirt” was a major problem in the early city. This was due primarily to certain basic facts: Most of the streets were not paved. Most of the streets were being used as sewers as well as thoroughfares. Columbus was a city powered by horses and its streets were filled with what horses left behind.

Put all of this together and one can see why the removal of dirt was an important issue.

By 1840, Columbus was a town of more than 6,000 people and the streets — at least near Broad and High — were at least moderately clean at least some of the time. An ordinance passed that year was more modest in its intent. The long-suffering marshal was ordered to employ someone to “clean the paved gutters of the city of all dirt and filth.”

Presumably, the idea here was that dirt and filth pushed into the street would be washed away after a while. How this would happen in a city without sewers was not explained.

Things had not improved much by 1850. A writer informed a local newspaper of the problems of inner city travel: “On Tuesday last, a couple of friends from Cleveland, delegates to the Temperance Convention, wishing to visit the Lunatic Asylum (at Jefferson and Broad), I took them in my carriage and set out on the perilous undertaking of reaching that institution; and by trespassing on the gravel sidewalk of Mr. Kelley (near Fifth and Broad), and some others, we contrived to get within 40 or 50 rods of the Asylum gate, when we were stuck fast in the mud, and after breaking the carriage and harness in endeavoring to proceed, we were compelled to wade on foot through the mire.”

The arrival of 26,000 Union troops at Camp Chase did not help improve city cleanliness much. A local paper complained in 1865 as the Civil War was ending that, “Our Street Commissioner, having wakened up from his Rip Van Winkle slumbers,

was out yesterday with an overwhelming force, consisting of a one-legged man and two assistants, actively engaged in cleaning up … Heaven knows there is need of it.”

By the early 1870s, Columbus was growing rapidly and the downtown near the Statehouse was being kept reasonably clean.

The area north of town near the railyards was another matter: “The weather at present writing warrants a hope that navigation between the National Hotel (Nationwide and High Street) and the North Graveyard (North Market) will be closed today. For several days, it has been impossible to get a respectable footing anywhere in the territory described above. We doubt whether such a sea of mud has ever afflicted any other city.”

Actually, many other cities had precisely the same problems.

If anything, Columbus — because it was the capital city — was probably cleaner than most cities of comparable size in these years.

At last in 1886, a program of relatively regular street cleaning was begun in Columbus. A fourhorse sweeper began to clean High Street six nights a week.

By 1892, the service was being performed by two two-horse sweepers. But even this service was not uniform, since it was paid for by local property owners who desired it.

It would take another generation for really complete street cleaning and refuse removal to come to Columbus. But by 1911 — 100 years ago — it was here.

Superintendent Kautzman described his refuse-collection department for a local paper: “Our present quarters (on Short Street) in addition to the disposal plant, consist of a loading station, a commodious barn, both of brick, and a wagon shed now in the process of completion. We have 104 head of horses, 54 wagons and more than 75 men …

“During the last two months, we have collected approximately 10,000 loads of garbage and rubbish. We are making the garbage pay by extracting grease and other byproducts from it …

Why should we not make this profit for the municipality?”

After all, who can argue with treasure from trash?

Skating event appeals to top pros, local youth

By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Skate for Hope is a chance for figure-skating champions and future skating stars to help raise funds to battle breast cancer.

“I am a breast cancer survivor and a lifelong skater,” said Carolyn Bongirno, Skate for Hope founder, who lives in Powell. “I realized that children and families are as impacted as the patient, and yet they have to sit on the sidelines and watch. I wanted to do something that would empower children to better cope if this hit anyone they knew or loved.”

Skate for Hope began with just four known skaters who drove in from Cleveland and Detroit.

Things have changed since then: Agents are now calling Bongirno to have their skaters participate in Skate for Hope. Fourteen past and present figure-skating stars are scheduled to be at Nationwide Arena for the eighth Skate for Hope at 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 18.

“John Coughlin, our new United States national champion, he just tweeted a few days ago that they were all out in Colorado Springs working on a number together to bring to the show, that would be completely unique to our show,” Bongirno said. “He Tweeted I just spent time with my Skate for Hope friends looking forward to my favorite show of the year.”

The athletes don’t get paid, and they miss Father’s Day to perform, Bongirno said.

“Sarah Hughes, our guest emcee, emailed me, can I skate?”

Carrying on a conversation with fellow passengers in a convertible can be so difficult that automobile manufacturers continually redesign their top-down models in order to make the open-air experience quieter. However, it seems that many automakers have fallen short in these efforts to the point where many convertibles are noisy enough to cause hearing loss.

In fact, when researchers recently drove five convertibles at 55 miles per hour, they found that it was surprisingly easy to exceed the 85-decibel level, which the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health identifies as “excessive noise exposure.” While no one wants to spoil anyone’s fun, those who are concerned about their hearing should be aware of this risk Whether they come from riding in a convertible, frequent exposure to loud power equipment, or playing music at a loud volume, hearing risks are all around us every day. At ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS, our goal is to help our patients hear as well as they can for as long as they can. Please call us today at 614-654-4309 to schedule a complementary hearing & speech evaluation. Many of our patients have discovered that traveling to Gahanna was worth their drive. We are First in Class on Angie’s List, we beat competitor’s pricing by 25%-70%, we have the top 10 leading brands, and we put our customer’s first. We are located at 1000 Morrison Road, Suite H, Gahanna. Come see why patients are willing to make the drive to invest in their hearing. We look forward to hearing from you.

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!

STATE CHAMPIONS

By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek

Thomas’ Armand Austin (facing), Nana Kyeremeh, Kevin Girgis and Andrew Maetzold celebrate June 4 after winning the 800-meter relay at the Division I state track and field meet at Ohio State.

Track & Field

Thomas boys capture 800 relay title

By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Kevin Girgis had the best spot in the house to watch his Thomas Worthington High School boys track and field teammates win the championship in the 800-meter relay in the Division I state meet June 4 at Ohio State.

Girgis, Andrew Maetzold, Armand Austin and Nana Kyeremeh won in a

program-record 1 minute, 27.42 seconds.

“I was standing back jumping up and down the whole time,” said Girgis, who ran the first leg of the relay. “And when Nana came across first ... I can’t even find words for the way I feel right now.”

The Cardinals also finished fourth in the 1,600 relay (3:18.48) with Kyeremeh, Austin, Ryan McFarland and Maetzold.

The four 800-relay runners, all juniors, finished unbeaten in finals this season. They had the second-best time in the 800 relay preliminaries (1:28.12) on June 3 behind Cleveland Heights (1:28.0). The Cardinals held a .34 of a second edge over runner-up Cleveland Heights in the final.

“We knew our biggest competition was going to be Cleveland Heights,” Girgis said. “(Cleveland Heights has) a

great anchor (Shelton Gibson), but Nana was great. We call him ‘2 Quik’ Kyeremeh because he’s too quick for anyone.

“We haven’t lost a race all year because we took it one race at a time. It’s great to win a state title, but it’s unbelievable to go undefeated in a season.”

Maetzold said the final legs from Austin and Kyeremeh were the keys to victory.

“We were able to go from 11th (at

state last year) to first. That’s a big jump,” said Maetzold, whose team tied Cleveland Heights for seventh (18) behind champion Cincinnati LaSalle (36) as 78 teams scored. “I’m lucky to be surrounded by talented runners who are also good people and my best friends.

We will have a lot of time to work on our handoffs and work out together.”

Boys Lacrosse

Wolves fall to Hudson in final

By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers After the Division I state final was suspended on June 4 with the Worthington Kilbourne High School boys lacrosse team trailing Hudson 12-7 in the fourth quarter at Westerville Central, coach Drew May had a restless night, as he tried to figure out a way for the Wolves to score five goals in the final 8 minutes, 17 seconds.

When the game resumed the next day at Dublin Coffman, Kilbourne was not able to overcome its deficit and lost 14-8 to finish 17-6.

The state title was the first for the Explorers, who finished 21-1.

“It was pretty difficult to sleep last night,” May said after the state final. “It’s mentally challenging for the coaching staff and for the players when you have to go in and get these guys ready multiple times throughout the game. But give our guys credit, they fought until the very end.”

This season marked Kilbourne’s fifth appearance in the state final the past seven years.

Its only state title came in 2009.

The Wolves, who had allowed an average of

Thomas girls lose in semis, page B4 5.1 goals in their previous six games, trailed 83 before scoring two goals in the final 42 seconds of the first half to go into halftime down 85.

They then scored the first goal of the second half to cut their deficit to 8-6 before Hudson scored the next four goals.

“They played phenomenal,” midfielder Tae Young Kim said of Hudson. “Their transition was really great. Their offense was able to move the ball and they had players sliding from all directions.”

Soon after midfielder Matt Wylly scored with 8:55 remaining in the fourth quarter, the game was halted because of lightning.

Officials spent more than an hour waiting for the thunderstorm to pass, but when it became apparent the storm would not pass in time for play to resume that evening, the coaches from both teams debated until midnight where and when the game would be completed the next day.

The Explorers were unable to find an area hotel to accommodate their team because of the Memorial Tournament and opted to drive back to Hudson for the night. They were back in Columbus 15 hours later to finish the game.

May, in the meantime, tried to find a way to rally his team.

“We watched a little film on them beforehand,” he said. “We brought (the players) into the locker room for a pep talk at noon (June 5). You just try to prepare these kids the best that you can to try to come back from five goals.”

Wylly led the Wolves with three goals. Attacker Charlie Bassani had two goals and an assist and attacker Ryan Pritchett added two goals.

Kilbourne advanced to the final by defeating Cincinnati Moeller 6-5 in a state semifinal on June 1 at Loveland.

Pritchett led the way with three goals, including the Wolves’ first and last goals.

“We knew they ran a zone defense, so all week we’ve been working on a new offense,” Pritchett said of Moeller. “(May) studied the goalie See LACROSSE, page B4

State Track & Field Notes

Division I boys pole vault highlighted meet From staff reports The boys pole vault competition in the Division I state track and field meet June 4 at Ohio State featured three athletes who have held the state record.

In a battle between Olentangy Liberty High School senior twins Chris Uhle and Joey Uhle and Gahanna junior Jake Blankenship, it was the youngest of the trio who left with the championship.

Chris Uhle, the defending champion after vaulting a then-state-record 16 feet, 9 inches last year, ended up third as Blankenship went 17-0 to capture the title. Joey Uhle finished second (16-6), followed by Chris Uhle (16-0).

“Having three state record-holders competing at state in the pole vault has definitely never happened in the past and may never happen again,” Joey Uhle said. “This was a fun year to compete in the pole vault because all three of us pushed each other all year.”

Blankenship went 16-10 in the OCCOhio Division meet May 14, but Joey Uhle vaulted 17-0 on May 21 in the district 2 meet at Hilliard Bradley.

“Whenever the three of us compete, it always goes back and forth between us, and I was fortunate to win on this day,” Blankenship said. “It feels good to win, but we’re all like a family and we’re happy for each other no matter who wins. I really wanted to clear 17 feet for the first time and I couldn’t have done it without Joey and Chris pushing me.”

•MORE TITLES COMING? — Both the Reynoldsburg and Hartley girls track teams used mixes of seniors and underclassmen to capture state titles June 4.

The Raiders in particular should return a strong unit next year. Junior Destinee Gause won the 100 meters (11.82 seconds) and the 200 (23.84), and classmate Faith Washington placed fourth in the 100 hurdles (14.52) and third in the 300 hurdles (43.58).

Of the six competitors who helped Reynoldsburg score 47 points to win a third consecutive team title, only Kacia Grant and Donyelle Brown are seniors.

The Hartley girls team also scored 47 points as it won the Division II title.

Seniors Aisha Cavin, Maya Pedersen and Chelsea Scott each scored in individual events and ran on relays.

Five Hawks who saw action in relays last weekend are eligible to return.

•GRADUATION COMPLICA-

By Laurie Stevenson/ThisWeek

Liberty’s Joey Uhle (left) and his twin brother, Chris, enjoy the moment on the awards podium with champion Jake Blankenship of Gahanna after the trio waged a battle in the pole vault competition during the Division I state meet June 4 at Ohio State. Blankenship’s winning vault of 17 feet tied the state record set earlier this season by Joey Uhle, who placed second at 16-6. Chris Uhle finished third at 16-0.

TIONS — As if the Uhle brothers did not have enough to worry about on June 4, Liberty’s commencement ceremony was set to begin at 10 a.m. at the Ohio Expo Celeste Center while the pole vault was scheduled for noon.

Chris asked anatomy teacher Hap Helfrich to pick up his diploma and Joey had chemistry teacher Brian Lindow stand in for him.

“Mr. Helfrich was one of my favorite teachers, so I asked him if he could walk for me and get my diploma,” Chris Uhle said. “He was really honored to do that for me. He texted me afterward and said, ‘I finally graduated.’”

Olentangy’s graduation began at 6 p.m. After Braves senior Adaora Anunike finished ninth in the shot put (41-3 1/2), she had less than an hour and a half to drive to the Celeste Center. Alphabetically, Anunike was supposed to be the third senior to receive a diploma, but because she was participating in the state meet, the school moved her to near the end of the order.

“I think they’re really looking out for me,” Anunike said. “It’s always a real nice thing to have ‘Tangy’ backing you up.”

•SOARING TO A NEW RECORD — Medina senior Taylor Burke set the state record in the girls high jump by clearing 6-1 1/4 to win the Division I state title on June 4.

Burke broke the previous record of 6-0 that had been set by Cleveland Collinwood’s Christina Estrict in 2000.

•ALSO JUMPING TO A TITLE — After Brookhaven senior Nigel Preacher had the state title in the Division I boys high jump locked up June 4, he set his sights on the state record.

Preacher jumped 7-0 to win the title then took three shots at 7-3, but came up short. The state record of 7-2 3/4 was set in 2009 by Toledo Rogers’ Erik Kynard Jr. •STATE-RECORD RUN — New Albany’s Taneisha Cordell ran a statemeet record in the girls Division I 800, winning in 2:07.35.

Her coach, Otis Winston, is the Division III state meet record holder in the high jump, clearing 7-0 for Toronto in 1992.

•IT’S NOT THAT BAD — As Grandview senior Sarah Meier stood on the second-place step of the awards podium in the Division III girls 300 hurdles, Teddi Joe Maslowski of Steubenville Catholic Central was making her third appearance on top of it.

Maslowski, a Duke signee, already had earned the state record earlier in the meet in the 100 hurdles and was the anchor of the team’s winning 800 relay.

Still, Meier said she heard Maslowski groan when her time of 44.79 was announced. At the state meet last year,

Maslowski set the Division III record when she ran 42.61.

“I told her everyone’s time was slower (during the finals) because we were running into a wind,” Meier said. “I was just happy to finally be standing in the No. 2 spot.”

Meier finished third in the 300 hurdles at state each of the past two seasons before placing second (45.16) this season. She also added a third-place finish (15.33) in the 100 hurdles June 4.

•TOUGH CALL — Grove City Christian’s Jaymie Barns capped a successful season by advancing to the boys 400 in the Division III state meet.

Barns would have finished 14th overall but was disqualified for having improper stitching on his shorts. According to coach Brad Seaburn, Barns competed with the same shorts all season.

•SHOELESS — Bay Village Bay’s Michael Brajdic and Westerville North’s Brian Hannaford were among the runners who lost a shoe during their races June 4.

Brajdic won the 3,200 in Division II (9:25.07) by more than six seconds despite competing without his left shoe for nearly a mile. He will continue his track career at Ohio State.

Things didn’t turn out as well for Hannaford in the Division I 3,200. He was hanging with eventual-champion Tsehaye Hiluf of Reynoldsburg for the first five laps before one of his shoes got knocked off by another runner. He stuck with the race for another lap before dropping out.

•MEMORABLE SEASON — Gahanna Christian had its first Division III state qualifier in Paris Jenkins, who finished 12th (12.8) in the 100. Jenkins will attend Oral Roberts University, where she is considering competing for the track team.

•REMINISCING — Grandview coach Brian Schoch watched with pride as the 1,600 relay from Minster stood atop the awards podium after winning in 3:22.11 in the Division III boys meet.

“I anchored the (1,600 relay) at Minster 16 years ago when we won the (event at state),” Schoch said. “It was really fun to watch that and remember the good times we had.”

•BATTLING THROUGH INJURY — Gahanna sophomore Lynnsey Brim placed second in the Division I girls long jump (18-8 3/4) behind Middleburg Heights Midpark senior Kaila Barber (19-1 3/4) despite nursing a turf toe injury on her left foot.

“Turf toe may not sound that serious, but it’s an injury that can be devastating to a track athlete because it makes every step you take painful,” coach Roger Whittaker said. “Lynnsey didn’t even long jump this season until May 5, and she only took three attempts while winning district and regional because we were trying to save her for state. Lynnsey was in pain this season, but she really stepped up and performed well in the meet that matters the most.”

Injuries hindered Big Walnut’s Tyler Fifer and Olivia Small last weekend.

Fifer, a senior who has two torn ligaments in his left ankle, finished 12th (6-2) in the Division I boys high jump.

He had cleared a personal-best 6-10 earlier this year and had qualified for state by going 6-4 at regional May 27 but sustained the injury during a practice before regional.

“I had a good season, but obviously I wasn’t healthy and wasn’t able to compete with these guys,” Fifer said.

“Everyone here is top class. And if you’re not healthy, you can’t compete with them. It was hard enough for me just to walk. I just tried to suck it up and do what I could do. I don’t like to make excuses, but it was hurting.”

Small, a freshman, hurt her left hamstring while competing in the 400 relay at regional but two days later was able to jump a personal-best 17-8 1/2 in the long jump to qualify for state.

The pain was worse last weekend, however, and she had to withdraw from the competition after her first jump in the final. She tied for ninth (17-1 1/2).

“It hurts really bad,” Small said. “My second jump I just pushed it too hard and it went downhill from there. It bothers me because if I would’ve jumped my (personal best) I would’ve been (eighth). It’s just hard.”

•RELAY RECORD FALLS — Bexley senior Elijah Scott, junior D.J. Jones, freshman Rasheed Morgan and junior Jalen Robinette became the first Lions athletes to score in the Division II state boys meet since 2007, placing fifth (1:30.16) in the 800 relay on June 4.

In the June 3 preliminaries, the relay broke a 42-year-old school record with a time of 1:29.81.

“We were close to the school record early in the season,” Jones said. “We came into the meet (thinking) we’d be happy if we got the school record or made it into the finals. We ended up doing both.” www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

The four Cardinals were inseparable at state, wandering the infield between events and preparing for races. When Austin finished sixth in the 400 (48.86), Girgis, Kyeremeh and Maetzold tagged along to the tent next to the awards podium to congratulate their teammate and watch his medal ceremony.

“These guys are my best friends on and off the track,” Austin said. “Running races and winning are just icing on the cake.

“It all comes down to all of us working as hard as we can together because everyone is so talented at this level.”

Kyeremeh is in his second season of track and field. His three partners on the 800 relay talked him into running.

“I was just running as hard as I could,” he said. “(Maetzold) told me that I needed to make sure to run all the way through the finish line and not slow down because anything can happen here.

“I didn’t know we won until I crossed the finish line and looked behind me. It’s humbling to be able to win a race like this.”

Kyeremeh is a first-generation American born in central Ohio after his family emigrated from Ghana.

As a defensive back on the Thomas football team, his speed and skill have caught the attention of Akron, Boston College, Northwestern, Toledo and Vanderbilt.

Like Kyeremeh, McFarland did not compete throughout high school. He was on the team as a freshman, but did not participate as a sophomore and junior. The senior finished his track career on the awards podium following the 1,600 relay.

“These guys talked me into coming back out, and I’m glad I did,” said McFarland, who also competed on the 12th-place 3,200 relay (7:58.25) with Greg Highley, Ray Crook and Dan McGeary. “It was my last race,

but what a great way to go out.

To finish fourth and get to be an all-Ohioan, it’s great.”

The members of the 800 relay had been going out to dinner together after every meet this season. This time, the foursome planned to shy away from the usual healthy menu selections.

“We’re going to go out and celebrate and eat some really greasy food,” Kyeremeh said. “We have been eating good food for six months, so we’re going to celebrate the fact that we are state champions. We’re going to enjoy ourselves.”

For the girls team, sophomore Frannie Frazier was disqualified in the 100 hurdles for a false start. shennen@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Worthington Christian Roundup

Girls 400 relay places fifth at state meet

By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

On Sept. 2, Mackenzie Clapper and Tobie Weston will find themselves in an unusual situation.

Teammates in soccer at the club level and at Worthington Christian High School, they’ll be on opposite sides of the field that day with Clapper playing for the women’s team at Messiah College in Grantham, Pa., and Weston playing for visiting Wittenberg University.

In the Division III state track and field meet June 3-4 at Ohio State, Clapper and Weston took advantage of their final opportunity to shine together in another sport at the prep level.

As members of the 400-meter relay along with junior Allie Custer and sophomore Donyell Miller, the duo helped the Warriors finish fifth in their heat and enter the final with the seventhbest time of 50.85 seconds.

Then in the final, the foursome improved to place fifth in 50.62, edging Steubenville Catholic Central, which posted the same time. WaynesfieldGoshen was first (48.93).

The four points the relay scored helped the Warriors tie seven other teams for 42nd of the 71 teams that scored, behind champion Steubenville Catholic Central (41).

“We really weren’t expecting to go to state at all in the (400 relay),” Weston said. “We feel really blessed. We just ran better each race together.”

The only member of the 400 relay to run the open 100 throughout the season was Miller. She failed to advance from the district meet May 21 at Gahanna in the 100 but led off the 400 relay that won district in 51.4.

The Warriors improved their time in the 400 relay at regional May 28 at Fairfield Union, placing third in 51.23 to advance to state.

According to Clapper, the first time the foursome ran together in the 400 relay was at district.

“

We really weren’t expecting to go to state at all in the (400 relay). We feel really blessed. We just ran better each race together.

”

TOBIE WESTON

—Worthington Christian senior

“I always thought we could get here because this has always been my race,” Miller said.

“After the regional, we were all thinking, ‘We can do this.’ It was a long road to success for us.”

“Even (during state preliminaries) we were bummed when we got fifth in our heat and thought our season was over,” Custer said.

The Warriors began the postseason by placing 12th (21) of 26 teams at district behind champion Grandview (100.5). In addition to contributing to the 400 relay title, Custer added a thirdplace finish in the 400 (1:02.55).

The 1,600 relay, which featured Clapper, Custer, Weston and junior Anna Shaw, was disqualified during the district final after having the second-best preliminary time (4:22.98).

Weston added a sixth-place finish (27.86) in the 200 and Clapper was seventh (2:30.82) in the 800.

The Warriors finished 28th (7) of the 47 teams that scored at regional, behind champion Waynesfield-Goshen (71). Custer took eighth (1:03.45) in the 400.

“Speaking for Tobie and I as seniors, we were bummed about what happened in the (1,600 relay),” Clapper said. “We were looking to go all the way in that relay. But I’m really proud of how we did (at state).”

In addition to Clapper and Weston, the Warriors will lose senior Ellie Billman from the girls team. Other contributors eligible to return include juniors Amy Early and Marissa Grant and freshmen Taylor Klass, Valerie

Mauger and Sarah Sharp.

The boys team finished 13th (18) of the 21 teams that scored at district, behind champion Columbus Academy (83.5). Junior Michael Stomps was third (53.22) in the 400 and the 400 relay of Stomps, junior Chris Bradley and seniors Connor Brown and Sam Isner also took third (44.87).

At regional, the 400 relay of Brown, Bradley, Stomps and junior David Manns-Moses took sixth (44.94) and Stomps was ninth (53.3) in the 400.

Brown and Isner were the only seniors to compete at district for the boys team.

Also eligible to return are sophomores Jeremy Ahonen and Michael Sauder and freshmen Jordan Brown, Logan Keseg, Chris Osborn, Luke Proxmire, David Stomps, Sam Trautman, Matthew Watterson and Michael Wayland.

Cardinals’ season ends in regional final

By PAUL BATTERSON

ever, the Explorers scored six

ThisWeek Community Newspapers goals in a row to open a 13-3 lead.

The goal of the Thomas Worthington High School girls lacrosse team this season was to play “as a team,” and, according to coach Ally McCarthy, the Cardinals played that way, even in their final game.

The Cardinals lost to Hudson 17-4 in a Division I North/Central Region final on May 31 to finish 14-5 overall.

“We kept focused as a team,” McCarthy said. “I’m very proud of this unit. They played liked a team until the last whistle.”

Hudson scored two goals in the first 30 seconds to jump out to an early lead, but McCarthy thought the Cardinals were working their way back into the game after cutting their deficit to 7-3 early in the second half. How-

Thomas opened the North/ Central Region tournament with a 21-10 win over Olentangy Liberty in the first round on May 18.

The Cardinals then beat Toledo St. Ursula 9-4 in the second round on May 23 before losing to Hudson.

Thomas went 3-2 in the OCCBuckeye Division to place third, behind New Albany (5-0) and Upper Arlington (4-1) and ahead of Worthington Kilbourne (2-3), Dublin Coffman (1-4) and Hilliard Darby (0-5). The Cardinals lost to New Albany 11-10 on April 26 and lost to UA 11-7 on May 9.

UA lost to Medina 14-13 in double overtime in the state final on June 4. A day earlier, New Albany lost to Medina 14-7 in a state semifinal.

At a glance

•Record: 14-5 overall, 4-2 (second) in OCC-Buckeye •Seniors lost: Cecelia Capuano, Jenny Danko, Tierney Ford, Kendall Gordon, Amber McAlpine, Annie Marie Potts, Caitie Sheban and Lily Yednock •Key returnees: Mackenzie Bogaards, Crystal Dershem, Samantha Kuehnl, Maggie McCloskey and Melissa Scheuering

“We love challenges,” said McCarthy, who was named OCC-Buckeye Coach of the Year. “When the (OCC) divisions were formed, we knew that was going to be a really competitive group of teams, but we looked forward to that challenge.

That helped prepare us for the

tough teams in the tournament.”

According to senior midfielder Lily Yednock, the Cardinals matured after a 14-13 victory over Kilbourne on April 12, winning 10 of their last 13 games.

“Kilbourne wasn’t our best game, but after that game we changed our playing style and had a different attitude,”Yednock said.

“We weren’t just running and gunning. We were holding the ball longer and working the ball around.”

Another key for the Cardinals was their balanced scoring, as five players finished with 20 or more goals.

“We always talked about that this year,” Yednock said. “You couldn’t just mark one girl because everyone was a threat.”

Expected to return are junior Crystal Dershem and freshman Faith Mahnke at goalkeeper, juniors Mackenzie Bogaards and Samantha Kuehnl, sophomores Hannah Heinke-Greer and Carly Porteus and freshman Claire Durfee on defense, junior Maggie McCloskey, sophomores Kieran Ford, Tonycia Melfe and Sophie Tikson and freshmen Liza Carey and Mara Sheban in the midfield and junior Melissa Scheuering on attack.

Defender Payden Pierce held the Crusaders’ leading-scorer, Mitch Catino, to one goal.

With the game tied at 4, defender Ryan Maloney intercepted a pass at midfield, drove toward the Crusaders’net and scored to give Kilbourne a 5-4 lead late in regulation The Wolves won the faceoff and Pritchett scored with less than three minutes to play to extend the lead to 6-4.

“When you’re playing for Kilbourne, you’re expected to be good, but there were people on blogs ... claiming we weren’t going to be as good as we had been in the past,” Pritchett said. “We’ve used that as motivation.

“I don’t think anyone who looked at our roster coming into the season thought we would be here playing (in the state final) except the guys in our locker room.”

Tierney Ford, Kendall Gordon and Amber McAlpine, midfielder Caitie Sheban, goalkeeper Jenny Danko, defender Anne Marie Potts and Yednock.

Yednock (40 goals, 12 assists) was named honorable mention all-American as well as first-team all-league, all-region and all-state.

Sheban (34 goals, 8 assists) was first-team all-league and all-region and second-team all-state.

Financial finesse

Wedding planning on a budget Your wedding day may be one you have dreamed about your entire life. In those dreams, it’s likely that no expense was spared in making the event memorable for you and your guests.

When it comes time to actually plan your wedding, however, you’ll likely be operating on a much tighter budget than you had in those dreams.

Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to make the event spectacular without spending a small fortune. In addition to the following tips, research will yield many books and online resources devoted to this topic.

Schedule your wedding out of season.

There’s no right or wrong time to plan your wedding, but there are dates that are more popular, and thus more expensive.

Avoiding the early summer and early fall months makes it easier to negotiate lower prices with vendors. Additionally, Fridays and Sundays tend to be less expensive than Saturdays.

Choose a nontraditional venue for your ceremony or reception. Holding your event in a backyard, park, on public grounds or in another location that doesn’t specialize in hosting weddings is both unique and can be a big cost-saver. Remember, however, to take into consideration the cost of tables, chairs and other rentals.

Don’t spend a lot on invitations. Couples may think the invitation sets the tone for the wedding, but the reality is, guests rarely remember the invite after opening the envelope.

Consider cutting costs by choosing less expensive invitations or even making your own.

For the response card, opt for a postcard or even an electronic reply on one of the popular wedding websites to save even more.

Get your friends and family involved.

There are likely some very talented people in your circle of friends. Tap them to be part of your special day. You can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars by asking your friends to fill important roles such as photographer, DJ and florist.

Find something borrowed. Friends and family may have centerpieces, apparel or other items from their wedding that they would be honored to loan you for yours. Ask around.

Purchase in season.

MICHELLE When choosing flowers, look for varieties that will JOHNSON be in season on your wedding day. You’ll save a bundle and likely have more beautiful arrangements.

The same principle works with menu planning. Look for local and in-season foods when deciding what you’ll serve at the reception.

Negotiate. Don’t hesitate to ask for a discount from your vendors and suppliers. In a tough economy, they may be willing to offer you great rates to get your business. And there’s no harm in asking.

Rent what you can’t afford to buy. Although most brides opt to purchase and store their wedding dress after the big day, few ever wear or do anything with the gown again. By renting, you can wear a designer dress for a fraction of the cost of purchasing.

Reduce the size of your guest list and wedding party. Scrutinize your guest list and consider limiting the number of your attendants.

Scaling back can help you save on the cost of invitations, favors, meals and more.

Make wedding purchases with a rewards card. Rather than writing a check, consider using a credit card that rewards you with frequent-flier miles, hotel points or even cash back. Depending on how much you spend, the rewards could help defray the cost of your honeymoon travel.

1 duction of Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance fell victim to the company’s recent restructuring, CAPA was able to secure the New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players to present the same classic light opera for the same dates: June 10-12 at the Southern Theatre.

(Meanwhile, CAPA and Opera Columbus will get to work on fashioning the model of a modern opera company.)

Pirates is a masterwork for sure, finding the composer and lyricist at the top of their considerable game — clever, engaging, incisive and a frolicsome good time.

Tickets are $102.50-$10. Call (614) 469-0939.

bison show is the biggest yet, as the lovely and talented Mrs. Robison — the smashing and smooth country singer Kelly Willis — is sharing the bill this time.

Kelly’s out of semi-retirement for a few marital-bliss shows this summer; expect a show both playful and poignant.

Tickets are $30. Call (614) 5656130.

Robert Plant and the Band of Joy plays the Palace Theatre Monday, June 13. Plant revived the name of his pre-Zeppelin outfit for his current project, one that boasts a lineup sure to thrive in the folk-rock legacy of the original.

that he’s able to do what he does for a living.

No, literally. Aside from his catchy nickname (more on that later) and one-of-a-kind licks and riffs, doing back flips and other stage gymnastics is what Shorty’s known for.

Shorty started doing the flips when he was in his teens, encouraged by one of his mentors, Guitar Slim, to add some showmanship to his performances. That was in the 1950s. He’ll still do a flip today at age 71.

“I just like to have myself some fun,” he told The Beat. “But you can’t get too excited, and you have to do it in time, in rhythm.

If the band is going crazy and they don’t know what’s coming, well, one time I ended up with my right arm in a sling.”

Shorty tells the story of his influence on a young Jimi Hendrix (Shorty would befriend and later marry Jimi’s half-sister), of whom Shorty said, “Jimi would go AWOL from his Army base to catch my local shows. He told me the reason he started setting his guitar on fire was because he couldn’t do the back flips like I did.

“I’m up there to entertain and make the fans happy,” Shorty told The Beat.

Born David Kearney in Houston, Texas, and raised by his grandmother in Kissimmee, Fla., Shorty attempted to follow in his uncle’s footsteps as a guitar player. As a 6-year-old, Shorty said, he would sneak into his uncle’s room once he’d gone to work and try to play the guitar, until one day he’d just about given up.

“I was kicking it and slamming the strings. I told my grandmother ‘I hate that guitar,’” he said. “My grandmother asked my uncle, ‘Will you teach that boy to play

guitar before I kill him?’”

Long hours on his uncle’s knee gave way to a gig with a local band — but being a kid in a band full of adults also meant he was the shortest member of the band.

A club owner laid the moniker Guitar Shorty on him then, and it stuck.

His reputation was growing as well, and he caught the ear of blues master Willie Dixon and that of Ray Charles, who hired him and with whom he spent a year on the road, still in his teens.

In the 1950s and ’60s, Shorty toured and recorded the occasional single. He moved to the Los Angeles area in the ’70s, and played gigs with every blues star, including B.B. King, Johnny Copeland and T-Bone Walker.

But it wasn’t until the ’90s that he began a serious recording career.

His new CD, Bare Knuckles,

is his seventh — third for Alligator Records.

“I still enjoy what I’m doing,” he said. “I’m thankful every day for the gift to be able to do this.”

Shorty admitted that most of his trademark licks are recorded live rather than rehearsed. Still, the studio is no substitute for the stage.

“Stuff just comes to me while I’m playing. The same song tonight and tomorrow night is not going to sound the same,” he explained. “If you do the same thing over and over, it’s like eating the same food all the time — it gets stale.

“If you can’t be creative, you’re wasting your time. That’s what music’s all about.”

New chef brings menu thrills to The Rossi “The thrill is goooone, baaaaby,” yowled B.B. King as I was seated at a rare available table in The Rossi Bar + Kitchen. Usually, a shopworn song like this deflates my mood. But that night (Was it the festive crowd? The stylish restaurant?), the old tune felt almost fresh.

And hey, I’ve got nothing against B.B., but as the evening progressed, I realized the blues dude’s words couldn’t have been more off base. Because the thoroughly fabulous food I began slamming back at the Rossi proved the thrill is most certainly not gone here. Actually, I haven’t been more enthusiastic about this place since reviewing it the week it opened, in April 2005.

My excitement grew from fantastic nightly specials and spread to just-introduced menu items rolled out by the Rossi’s bright new chef,Andrew Smith. Formerly working in that artsy hotbed of culinary daring called Portland, Ore., Smith’s stuff has been creative without tasting strange, ingredient-conscious without sounding

by G.A. Benton precious. This translates into meals as good as I’ve recently had anywhere in town.

Before eating, though, try one of the Rossi’s wild cocktails, like the giggly Beet Down ($10). Not only does this rubycolored, hefty, aromatic oddball go down considerably better than it sounds, but I kinda love it. Refreshingly, it’s a bit citrusy with orange-kissed Watershed Gin flying off pomegranate molasses, both grounded by splashes of earthy beet juice.

Crystals of sea salt crust the cocktail glass, realigning the palate between sips.

The lovely, light and lemony-dressed arugula salad ($10) is another new favorite. It’s huge — a salad king crowned with toasted hazelnuts and a crunchy crostini smeared with Lucky Penny goat

cheese. Rimming the plate of regal greens are warm prosciutto-wrapped dates that bring smooth and chewy, sweet and meaty contrasts.

Like all specials (including a nifty P.L.T.: pancetta, lettuce and tomato salad

with Lucky Penny feta) it’s listed on cards posted above the restaurant “pass.” There, you might also see a (sexily seared) scallop, (bacony) crispy pork rillette and tomatillo-jam appetizer. If you do, order this immediately.

Ditto for a terrifically balanced soupof-the-day gazpacho ($6). Rustic yet lush, its fresh and colorful chopped vegetables (tomato, cucumber and red onion) were aromatized by a hint of basil and enriched by drops of an excellent olive oil plus pulverized bread.

This brings us to what’s become a much-talked-about dish around town — the Rossi’s incredible new Pork and Beans ($18). Criminally undersold by its mundane name, this breakout entree can easily erase bad memories of underachieving predecessors of the same name.

It begins with a huge and beautiful bone-in, center-cut pork chop, expertly char-grilled like the tender and juicy steak it is. On top is a mass of mayonnaisedressed slaw sharpened by sliced green

The Rossi Address: 895 N. High St., Short North Phone: 614-299-2810 Web: rossibarandkitchen.com apple and bits of pickled jalapeno. Surrounding this are gigantic, meaty and creamy corona beans (think extra-large butter beans) that are a riotous pleasure to eat. Combined, it all made for a comfort-food masterpiece dripping with so much arousing flavor that I literally had to pound on the table and declare, “Holy slab of hog, that’s good!”

In a similar, dressed-up-casual vein was a glorious Pork Confit sandwich ($9) served with terrific fries. Assembled with carnitas-like strands of intensified pulled pig meat and pickled watermelon rind scented with cinnamon, it’s like the dream of a summertime picnic awakened by a clever chef.

And another reason to visit the thrilling Rossi again.

his eyes on the Chase bank crowd in Westerville, where employees number in the 2,000 range. He hopes reasonable prices — no single dish tops $9 — and quick service should get people in the door.

“To keep my concept working, I need the volume,” he said, noting that a full liquor license is in place.

Banquet space will be used for large parties or spillover seating during restaurant hours. Patio seating also will be added.

Nanak, which got its start in Bethel Center, has been long known for its quality, natural desserts.

When Soltanirad and Tajik relocated to Westerville in late 2009, Nguyen opened his second Lac Viet in their Bethel Road storefront.

Nanak offered a menu of savory items until recently. Soltanirad said it was too difficult to run the bakery and a separate eatery, so he brought in Nguyen.

“I know him. I think his food is very good,” he said. “It’s something Westerville doesn’t have.”

Nguyen established his first Lac Viet almost seven years ago in the North Market and later opened Phat Wraps, a healthy-food concept on campus. He said he has sold his interest in both restaurants so he could focus on his two other stores.

In related news, Nguyen has attained a license through the Ohio Department of Agriculture that allows him to transport food from Lac Viet on Bethel to other locations, meaning he has turned that store into a commissary kitchen. He recently bought a 60-gallon stockpot and intends to sell his pho broth to other restaurants.

“I’m ready for the next level,” he said.

Lac Viet is open for lunch and dinner hours six days a week, closed Sunday. For more information, call 614-882-0588.

in the University District, he now operates Johnny Oak’s Cajun BBQ at the corner of High and Gay streets downtown. Oak said he’s there from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday. His specialties are blackened beef brisket, pulled pork, rib tips — offered as sandwiches or part of a platter — and a smattering of sides, which change frequently.

Incidentally, Oak said he got his start on a food truck at Central and McKinley avenues on the West Side of Columbus.

Great China has opened in the old Fuddruckers location at 3586 W. Dublin-Granville Road, just east of Sawmill Road. The place offers a full Chinese menu (and a traditional menu for those who ask), plus a few Thai and Japanese dishes, said manager Brad Tsai. Great China seats 120 in roughly 5,000 square feet of space. The restaurant has a full liquor license. It is open for lunch and dinner hours daily. For more information, call 614336-2465.

After 21 years in business, the Wine Vault on Sawmill Road has closed. The last day was Saturday, June 4. Manager John Smither, who had been there 16 years, chalked it up to fierce competition, particularly from the chains.

“The pie’s not any bigger and it’s getting split Barbecue veteran Johnny Oak has returned to the mobile food business. In addition to his store thinner and thinner,” he said.
