When your child needs urgent care, everything matters.

And what matters most is pediatric expertise.

That’s why our Close To HomeSM Centers are staffed by medical professionals who have received additional training to care exclusively for children. Here at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, everybody is a pediatric specialist.

We know when a simple fever could be more serious. We know how to set a broken bone so it grows properly. We know the correct dosage of medications for children of all ages.

Every piece of equipment is also specialized.

Why? Try fitting an adult-sized blood pressure cuff on the arm of a two-year-old. Or giving an injection to a five-year-old with an adultsized needle.

Urgent care should be expert care. So always call your child’s doctor first and remember we’re here when you need us. For directions, hours and location-specific information, visit NationwideChildrens.org/UrgentCare.

Urgent Care. Close to Home.

News & Information from the Village of Marble Cliff

THE VILLAGE OF

MARBLE CLIFF

Volunteers Chip in to Improve Tarpy Woods Marble Cliff’s passive park in Tarpy Woods has been improved by two groups of committed citizens. When Village resident Wiley Elliott saw AEP in the Village trimming trees away from power lines, he spoke with the AEP Forestry Group and learned that they would be willing to dump the resulting wood chips near the trail in Tarpy Woods.

With free wood chips available, Elliott next looked for free labor. As the father of two Cub Scouts, he contacted Tara Stottlemire, leader of Cub Scout Pack 28, and Hal Schofield, leader of Boy Scout Troop 73, about working together to lay the chips on the park trail.

They quickly agreed and “the dots were connected!”

Under Elliott’s coordination, more than 40 area residents and Scouts gathered at the park on Saturday, March 24 to move more than 25 cubic yards of chips to the well-worn path. “First we focused on safety since we had a lot of youth and tools. Then we came up with a system, assigning everyone to a task

they wanted to do.

That included loading tarps and wheelbarrows, pushing/ pulling and dumping, spreading and, lastly, picking out the larger and sharp chips that might be a hazard,” Elliott said.

“Once we got going, we wished we had more to spread, as we were done in Cub Scout Pack 28 and Boy Scout Troop 73 worked together to lay wood chips at Tarpy Woods March 24. a few hours.”

To see a time-lapse video of their “It’s nice to see that users of the park work, go to http://youtu.be/3G5- respect it and help keep it clean by not nme2N1M. littering and using the waste receptacle A month later, the Friends of Tarpy at the trailhead,” she said.

GRANDVIEW Lazy Daze are Here Local arts council hosts 19th annual summer festival

www.grandviewheights.org

By Stephan Reed

The.Grandview.Heights/Marble Cliff Arts Council will give area residents and visitors an excuse to be “lazy” this summer.

The council will present its 19th annual Lazy Daze of Summer festival July 28 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The event will take place on Ashland, Oakland and West First avenues and the surrounding lawn. Anyone can participate in the free festival.

“We have babies on up,” says Jeri Diehl Cusack, arts council board member. “We always pray that it’s hot, but not rainy. We also don’t like it to be 95 degrees because that may limit Grandma from staying all day.”

The silent auction is a big hit among the adults, Cusack says. “Many of the items are donated by the exhibitors who are there trying to sell that day,” she says.

“There is a wide variety of hand-crafted items and gift certificates to local businesses and restaurants.”

Inside the Grandview Heights Library will be the Friends of the Library’s paperback and video sale. “They typically do it outside on the lawn, 10

but this year it’s inside,” Cusack says.

“They’ll be able to sell more items and we think that will be a reason for people to come inside, (if) only to enjoy the air conditioning if it happens to be a 90-degree day like it often is.”

Profits from the festival go to the arts council’s endowment fund. “Every year we do a scholarship for Grandview High School students who are graduating and going on to study some area of the arts in college,” Cusack says.

The event offers festival-style food and free arts and crafts for children.

“We encourage the little ones to come in the afternoon,” Cusack says.

“Ruthanne James, the president of the arts council, is a retired elementary school art teacher, so she coordinates that event.”

Local artists’ work will be displayed and on sale at the festival, including hand-crafted jewelry, sculptures, ceramics, paintings and photos. “It’s incredible to see the type of products people are willing to spend hours to create and share at an event like this,” Cusack says. “You can’t just come in and sell flea market stuff. It has to be hand-crafted and something you made yourself.” Judges will review www.trivillagemagazine.com

pieces and give out The Best of Show and The People’s Choice awards, as well as five honorable mentions.

Displaying local talent and entertaining visitors is how the festival began in 1994. “The library and the city decided to work together on this because people said they should put on a festival and a craft event,” Cusack says. “It never made as much money, and that’s why the library withdrew from being one of the presenters. They are the site of the event, but they’re not in it for the money anymore.”

Since its inception 19 years ago, Lazy Daze has attracted about 3,000 to 5,000 guests per year, but this year, the festival won’t be the only attraction for visitors to Grandview Heights that day, Cusack says.

“Another cool factor this year is that Lazy Daze falls on the same day as Destination Grandview’s Grandview Hop,” she says. “Businesses will stay open late, have specials at their restaurants and have bands playing outside. It’s going to be a full day in Grandview Heights on July 28, that’s for sure.”

The City of Grandview Heights website has undergone a facelift. The new site is personal to Grandview and offers improved functionality.

Following the traditional recommendation to update a website every four years, web designers and site users got together to decide what improvements needed to be made, says Grandview Heights Fire Chief Steve Shaner, who oversaw the changes.

What emerged is a new look that focuses on accurately reflecting the feel of the city, as well as representing the new Grandview Yard area. The new site also provides a more userfriendly experience.

“The company that we use kind of streamlined things and they’ve updated stuff to make it easier to find,” Shaner says. Public documents, the No. 1 reason people visit the website, are now easier to find than ever, thanks to the updates.

The new website also increases the ways residents can connect with events happening in the city. It has links to the Grandview Heights Facebook page and Twitter feed, where residents can get news from the city through social media instead of through email. If residents still want news through email, the new website allows them to better customize what type of information they receive, from City Council meeting agendas to updates about when fire hydrants will be tested. If citizens have health or safety concerns, the website also provides an easy way for them to connect with the right officials.

Residents can also better connect with the Parks and Recreation Department through the website’s redesign.

“Folks will be able to go onto the Parks and Recreation site and be able to sign up for programs and request facilities like the park shelters,” says Shaner.

With tight city budgets, the website is a great tool to help keep personnel costs low.

“Any way we can make it easier for the general public to get information without increasing the amount of staff we have here, we feel it’s a win-win for the citizen,” says Shaner. “They are getting a good service that we’re able to provide at low cost, and that’s a great thing.”

League Leader Elisabeth Dilz puts her fundraising skills to work for local kids

fill,” Dilz says just five days into her new leadership position. Her challenge will be “keeping the ball rolling.”

She’s already well-schooled and easily discusses the league to which she is being introduced, going to community organization meetings, attending mentoring sessions and watching and meeting kids involved – all helping her learn the organization’s finer points.

“I have to confess, I knew nothing about TriVillage Mentor League,” when

{

Elisabeth Dilz had to hit the ground running when she took over as director of the TriVillage Mentor League in May. Fortunately, she had some help. For a decade, Hayley Head, another UA resident, led the charitable organization with a spirit and drive that raised its profile immeasurably during her tenure.

“I think she has made the organization what it is. I have some big shoes to

“Everyone I have talked to has told me how much they have enjoyed being a mentor.”

12

she learned through friends that Head was moving on, Dilz says.

The league hosts a weekly schoolyear mentoring program that pairs Grandview Heights and Upper Arlington high-schoolers with students in younger grades. In addition, the group helps local youth apply to attend Tim Horton’s Children’s Foundation summer camps.

With a 21-year background in fundraising, publicity, event planning, marketing and advertising, the Miami University graduate is well-suited for leading the organization.

Dilz, who was development director for the Columbus Metropolitan Library for 11 years, left that position in 2001 to stay at home with her children, Sarah, now 14, and Tommy, 12. In her time at the library, she created a fundraising program for the system and enhanced other programs.

For seven years since, she has been involved in fundraising for the PTO at Barrington Elementary School, where Tommy attends, and was on the UA library’s development steering committee last year.

Sarah is a Jones Middle School student.

Dilz’s introductory days to the league included visiting the Mentoring & More program at Stevenson Elementary School in Grandview Heights where 40 K-4 students are visited once weekly by older students – mentors – who lead them in various activities, ranging from art to studies to playing.

“It’s nice to see the kids hug their mentors. That’s where the maternal part (of the job) comes in,” Dilz says.

In Upper Arlington, 30 Barrington students participate in the program. It’s smaller there because it’s partly based on financial need and fewer students qualify, Dilz says.

“Everyone I’ve talked to has told me how much they have enjoyed being a mentor,” she says.

Also on Dilz’s break-in agenda was the presentation of six $500 scholarships – three in each high school – to seniors who had been mentors. This year’s recipients were Rebekah Keller, Casey Martina and Jacob Smith from Grandview Heights, and Carly Allen, Jack Brewer and Mary Nemer from UA. The scholarships are funded in part www.trivillagemagazine.com

by the Tri-Village and Upper Arlington rotary clubs and Members First Credit Union.

Through Tim Horton’s Children’s Foundation, several students 13 and older are selected to attend a two-week camp, free of charge. This year, 13 from Grandview and eight from UA went to Tim Horton Onondaga Farms in St. George, Ontario. It’s one of six camps the foundation has throughout Canada, where Tim Horton’s is based.

Dilz went to an orientation meeting for this year’s group of students. “The kids were so excited” when they heard of all the things they would do, much of it based on farm living. They slept in tents and were provided with sleeping and duffle bags and flashlights. One disappointment was that they wouldn’t get to fly because the camp’s a bus ride away. And some were not enthused there are no electronic devices allowed.

But, “(Camp officials) assured them they would not miss them,” Dilz says.

After attending one year, the Tim Horton’s foundation may select certain campers to return for up to four more years as part of a leadership program.

Some from the Tri-Village area have returned, but the Mentor League isn’t involved in that process and doesn’t track how many are chosen. At the end of the get-acquainted session Dilz attended, “One little guy said, ‘I know I’m going to go all five years,’” she says, relishing his enthusiasm.

She’s had several more events on her schedule since then. In late June, the Red Door Tavern sponsored the first-ever golf outing for the league’s benefit. Upcoming on Nov. 16 is the annual Bid & Benefit at Our Lady of Victory Parish Hall, the charity’s biggest fundraiser.

While the league is pleased with its community support, Dilz will rely on her professional background while seeking ways to do more and better.

Dilz laughs as she mentions one of her personal projects: She wants to “find a new word for mentee,” to describe the younger students in the program. “It’s really nothing. It’s just me,” she says.

Upper Arlington Crew rows toward 20th year

Senior Keith Gramila, who will row for Marietta College in the fall, carries one of the team’s boats.

The sport of rowing has a rich history. It is one of the oldest Olympic sports, and when Harvard beat Yale in 1852, it became the first intercollegiate sporting event in the U.S. In ancient times, rowing was a means of transport (think of the galley slaves in Ben-Hur) and inspired a rowing T-shirt slogan, “Crew: the only sport that originated as a form of punishment.”

As Upper Arlington Crew nears its 20th anniversary next spring, it is creating its own history by wrapping up a successful season amid stiff competition while earning lots of “clinkage” – an insider term for multiple medals.

Though the boys and girls teams are officially on a break for the summer in July, practice continues for many of the 100 rowers on the UA Crew girls’ and boys’ teams. The fall season kicks off in August, but many choose to participate in summer competition.

The UA Crew Golden Bears compete in the fall as a club and in the spring as a scholastic team. Club competitions are more challenging because rowers can come from many different school districts, whereas a scholastic team must draw members from only one district.

Under the tutelage of head boys coach Chris Swartz and head girls coach Mike Rice, the combined teams won the points trophy at the Ohio Governor’s Cup regatta, held at Griggs Reservoir April 29. The annual event attracts more than 1,000 rowers from throughout the Midwest.

At the Midwest Scholastic Rowing Association regatta in Cincinnati, UA Crew won two gold, five silver and two bronze medals – serious clinkage – which earned third place honors overall in a field of 45 teams from 12 states.

Crew, as a sport, does not offer state titles, so Swartz tells UA Crew parents www.trivillagemagazine.com

that a national title is the only option.

Two opportunities exist to compete for national titles annually, as either a scholastic or club team, and this year, UA earned spots in both categories. At the scholastic national regatta, in Camden, N.J., the girls’ first Varsity 8 finished sixth in the nation.

The team also had three boats qualify for Boston’s Head of the Charles, the largest rowing regatta in the world, held in October.

UA Crew was thrust into the limelight unexpectedly in 2009 when the boys’ team captain, Blake Haxton, battled a rare type of flesh-eating bacteria – to which he lost his leg and nearly his life. “I have never coached an athlete who has as much ability or drive as Blake Haxton,” says Swartz. Haxton’s story touched many and prompted a record number of new rowers that fall.

Haxton now attends The Ohio State University and is an assistant coach for UA Crew.

Most freshman rowers are completely new to the sport. Each year, a free, three-day rowing mini-camp is offered, introducing them to crew and inspiring many to sign up.

“I knew a little about the basics of rowing before I started,” says sophomore Marissa Donadio, “but it is hard to fully understand the sport without being a part of it. I thought it would be easy just to pull an oar, but it is so much more than that.” www.trivillagemagazine.com

“Perhaps the most significant misconception about rowing is that we use our arms,” says senior Grace Tucker. “Rowing is actually more of a leg sport.”

Rowing has its own terminology. For example, “catching a crab” refers to an improper stroke that causes an oar blade to get caught in the water. “Power 10” is a concentrated period of time in the race when the rowers pull harder. A coxswain, the “cox,” sits in a small seat in the stern of the boat and captains the boat, or “shell.”

A coxswain steers the boat and coordinates the power and rhythm of the rowers, says senior Allie Keegan. “You have to make them work together as a team,” she says. In fact, teamwork is a term you hear often from these students. “Crew

is the epitome of a team sport,” Grace Tucker says.

“There’s no way you can win a race all by yourself.”

Rower Sam Klamar, a senior, says the most challenging part of rowing is finding the right boat dynamics. “Putting eight people in a boat and expecting them to automatically row well as a group doesn’t always work,” he says.

Coaches will try different combinations of rowers to find the best mix.

Teamwork leads to what Keegan describes as her favorite part of the sport: the camaraderie. It’s a familiar refrain among the rowers, including Tucker.

“There is something about being around the same group of people, two hours a day, six days a week, throughout the school year that creates strong bonds.

We’re a family,” Tucker says.

Zach Politz, who graduated in June and plans to row in college, discovered crew as a junior after trying several different sports. “None compare to the strength and endurance required in rowing,” he says.

“It is the most difficult sport I’ve done.

It takes up the most time, is the most physically demanding and mentally taxing, yet the most rewarding.” It’s an interesting observation from a young man who is also an accomplished mountain climber, having ascended both Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Rainier.

Annie Jennings, who also graduated this year, plans to row in college, as well. “Blisters, sloppy mud, torrential downpours, hail, tornadoes, snow, extreme heat and humidity, and beach docking in freezing water couldn’t keep me away from this sport,” Jennings says.

Haxton is honored at the annual Haxton Invitational Regatta, an event that draws the fastest regional crews. The 2012 event is scheduled for Oct. 2627. At the Haxton family’s request, all proceeds from the regatta go to the UA Crew Scholarship Fund to help make the sport more affordable.

Grandview Green Thumbs Former World War II victory garden welcomes growers of all experience levels

Tim McDermott 24

For 70 years, Wallace Gardens has been the go-to spot for Grandview Heights residents who want to expand their gardening habit beyond their own back yards.

Wallace Gardens, 1569 Goodale Blvd., began as a victory garden during World War II with land donated by the Wallace family. After the war, it continued as a community garden, says Grandview Heights Parks and Recreation Director Sean Robey.

Residents can rent plots of plowed land each year and plant produce or flowers.

For an annual fee of $25-$70, depending on the size of the plot, the city offers gardeners perks for planting there.

“This park makes a profit for the city and its only expenses are occasional

mowing, plowing and the water bill,” says veterinarian and veteran gardener Tim McDermott. “All of those things are much less than they take in for the fees of using the garden. And the fees are not a burden at all. You get you all the garden you can handle from April 1 to Nov. 1 and they clean up after you.”

McDermott has planted, weeded and harvested at Wallace Gardens for 16 years, making sure his garden gets at least an inch of water a week. This year is no different – his 30 x 40 foot plot is full of onions, tomatillos, leeks and potatoes, among other vegetables.

This community garden has grown on him since he moved to Grandview.

ever since,” McDermott says. “The garden was something that, even when we didn’t live in Grandview, we would come down and enjoy in the summer.”

In contrast to this year’s high participation rate – 102 individuals or families have plots – the garden was on the verge of closure a few years ago.

“Going back five or six years, people were thinking about getting rid of it and turning it into another ball field,” McDermott says. “A bunch of us gardeners decided to put a lot more time into the garden to make sure that it would not go away. Now, it’s back to being full every year and having multi-year waiting lists.”

Wallace Gardens acts as a social hot spot for gardeners and yields friendships throughout the growing season, relationships that may not have developed if everyone were just to garden at home, McDermott notes.

“There are a lot of other Grandview people who bring their families, and on a www.trivillagemagazine.com

nice summer day, you’ll see all of your pals down here,” he says. “There is a big social aspect involved and it’s never competitive.”

McDermott gives tips on gardening for those who are interested, but not experienced.

“In February, I do a class on seed starting and getting ready for the growing season for the Grandview Parks and Rec,” he says. “In the past, we’ve done walkthroughs in the garden and I will meet any of the gardeners and answer any questions they may have about pests, diseases, plants and anything else. My biggest tip is to just be patient and don’t get discouraged if Mother Nature doesn’t cooperate.”

For the past 25 years, McDermott has harvested a vast knowledge about gardening both from personal experience and from classes.

“I took a class called bio-intensive vegetable gardening at Ohio University in Athens and it really got me started,” he says. “Students were given a plot of land and grades were dependent on how well they did that spring quarter. I got a C, but I would like to think I have improved since then and that my teacher might be proud of me now.”

The garden may be a hobby for many participants, but it has functional undertones as well.

“My family does this as a fun thing to do together and it pays off in that we get a tremendous amount of vegetables,” McDermott says. “It produces about half of our vegetables for the year. You can eat real healthy if you grow it yourself.”

The garden’s location provides it a great contrast with the surrounding urban atmosphere, Robey says.

“It’s so cool to have the garden juxtaposed to the urban horizon,” he says.

“You can see the 20-story Summit Chase high rise in the background. It’s so unique.”

Those interested in renting a garden plot can contact Robey at 614-488-3111.

“Assuming you’re a Grandview Heights or Marble Cliff resident, all you have to do is email us or call us and we will have one for you as soon as they become available,” Robey says.

Just Desserts Decadent treats are but one highlight of the Taste of UA If there’s only one flavor you try at the Taste of UA this year, Tom English hopes it will be chocolate.

A newcomer to the 19th annual event, English, owner of Upper Arlington’s Schakolad Chocolate Factory, will be offering up the store’s latest creation: homemade gelato.

28

most popular are chocolate, mint chocolate chip, chocolate mint raspberry and hummingbird, which combines flavors of banana, coconut, rum, mocha and strawberry. Expect to see at least a few at the Taste of UA, English says.

With offerings like those, Schakolad will be vying for first place in the Dessert category of the Taste awards. And with 130 different vendors expected to attend this year’s event, scheduled from 3:30-8:30 p.m. Aug. 9, competition is sure to be stiff, say organizers from the Upper Arlington Area Chamber of Commerce.

Last year, the battle for top dessert ended in a three-way tie, says Elizabeth Krause, chamber events coordinator.

Caffe DaVinci, Schmidt’s and Two Bites took first place, with Leslie’s Creperie and The Original Goodie Shop taking second and third, respectively.

“It’s Italian ice cream that we make right here in the store,” English says.

“All of our flavors contain our chocolate in one way or another.”

Gelato differs from ice cream in that it is milk-based rather than cream-based, so it has a firmer texture. Schakolad offers 16 flavors of gelato; some of the www.trivillagemagazine.com

New this year, one festival attendee will join the panel of celebrity judges to select winners in each category. In addition to dessert, honors are given to the best appetizer and best entree. Attendees also vote on a People’s Choice award, Krause says.

Returning attractions include inflatable games, rides, a larger Bier Garten and Buckeye Mobile Tours, including The Ohio State University cheerleaders and Brutus Buckeye.

Musical entertainment will be on hand as well. Vaughan Music Studios is partnering with the chamber to introduce a new music festival component to the Taste. As of mid-June, the lineup included Central Planners at 5 p.m., Good Company at 6 p.m. and Grassinine at 7:15 p.m. Avalon Nine is also on the schedule.

Chamber President Becky Hajost hopes the music festival, the unofficial title of which is “Local Music, Local Food,” will expand in future years.

“From that whirlwind beginning in 1993, the Taste of UA has continued to grow, becoming the versatile and very successful event that it is today because of the contribution by many in the community,” Hajost says.

“The Taste of UA celebrates a local taste and serves as the foundation for a year-round community effort to nurture and grow our local area businesses.”

And she’s not the only one enthusiastic about the event, which will be held in Northam Park.

“I’m very excited. I’m really looking forward to letting people know that Schakolad is here in Upper Arlington,” says English, who reopened Schakolad in October after it closed under previous ownership.
