Mallard, who is involved with the Friends of Freemasonry, is organizing an event in Oakley this fall. He is hoping to raise $35,000 for the Honor Flight Tri-State. “Back in 2014, (I) attended an Hon- or Flight and saw the impact on the veterans and thought it would be a good cause,” he said. Mallard went on the trip as a guard- ian with a World War II Navy veteran. Honor Flight provides an opportu- nity for veterans over the age of 65 to travel to Washington, D.C., to visit his- toric monuments and participate in other special activities. Mallard said $35,000 will provide enough for 70 veterans to go on the Honor Flight. Mallard said he came up with the idea for an Oakley fundraiser while at- tending a Freemasons of Ohio meet- ing. Although the Freemasons are not directly involved with the fundraiser, Mallard tapped into their skills for helping others. “One of the things we like to do is raise money for good causes,” said Mallard, who is a resident of Highland Heights, Ky. At this stage, Mallard is looking for area sponsors and planning for the event, which will be Oct. 25 at the 20th Century Theater. He said the event will have a 1940s theme with a band and possibly an or- chestra. He said a silent auction and raffle is also planned. The Oakley event could potentially kick off other activities ranging from a potential scavenger hunt to wine tasting at area breweries, Mallard said. Mallard announced plans for the Honor Flight fundraiser during the June Oakley Community Council meeting.

A man who says Columbia Township’swaste levy proposal is garbage needs tobrush up on state law and local financialrecords, the township administratorsays.

Columbia Township resident Carl E.Jones — who is running for a trustee posi-tion in November — put together a list ofchallenges to the 5.1-mill waste levy that

the township Board ofTrustees recently voted toput on the fall ballot.

Administrator MikeLemon said the 5.1-milllevy would replace Co-lumbia Township’s cur-rent 3.5-mill waste levy,which expires at the endof the year.

It also would add anoth-er 1.6 mills to meet rising costs disposingof garbage, brush and leaves and to offsetthe loss of revenue due to the state phas-ing out the tangible personal-propertytax, Lemon said.

The Hamilton County Auditor says thelevy would generate just above $614,000 ayear and cost homeowners $178.50 per$100,000 valuation of their homes.

Lemon said the waste levy has been at3.5 mills since 2003 and Columbia Town-ship is asking residents to support a 1.6-mill increase for the next three years be-cause there are no reserve funds left.

Levy proceeds would pay for wastecollection, recycling, leaf pick-up, brushpick-up, mulch, wood chips and equip-ment replacements.

For the past eightyears, Honor Flight Tri-State has flown hundredsof male military veteransto visit Washington, D.C.memorials free of charge.

On Sept. 22, the Cincin-nati-based nonprofit islifting off with the firstever all women veteransflight, marking its ownhistoric event.

“Some would say thatthey wish more womenwere on the flight,” HonorFlight Director CherylPopp said. “No one everreally thought about hav-ing a flight for just womenveterans — until now. The

Tri-State flight will be thefirst of its kind in the na-tion.” News about theflight went out in earlyApril and applications arealready being submitted,Popp said.

Founded in 2007, theHonor Flight Tri-Statewas created to honorAmerica’s WW II, Koreanand Vietnam Veteransand all veterans over age65, who served eitherstateside or overseas, byproviding them a free tripto visit their memorials inWashington D.C. It is partof a national networkfounded in 2005 thatshares similar goals.

Senior veterans overage 65 will have top priori-ty on this flight withyounger veterans underthe age of 40 invited toserve as their guardians,Popp said.

Women have been in-cluded in past HonorFlights that were predom-inantly men, but usuallyno more than five at atime, Popp said.

One woman eager to be

a guardian on the flight isAshley Brunkel. The Clif-ton woman is a proud vet-eran who served nineyears with the Army Na-tional Guard. Her serviceincluded being part of Op-eration New Dawn pullingthe troops out of Iraq. Sheleft the service in 2013 tofinish her degree from theUniversity of Cincinnatiin criminal justice. Brun-kel said she’s the first inher family to graduatefrom college.

The inspiration for allthat she’s done, from serv-ing her country to pursu-ing her college degree sheattributes to her grandfa-ther, the late Clifford Ire-land.

“He was in the 3rd In-fantry Division in WorldWar II in Normandy,”Brunkel said. “He wassomebody in the familywe all looked up to.”Though he died when shewas young, between theages of 5-8, Brunkel re-called her grandfather in-spiring her to play a musi-cal instrument and to getan education.

She’s always wanted togo on an honor flight, buthas no veterans in her ownfamily with whom she canshare the experience. Be-ing a guardian on a flightwould give her an oppor-tunity to hear the storiesof women who had a very

different experiencefrom her own.

“They have stories noteverybody hears. To be onthis flight and help takecare of them would be anhonor. I’m an able body.I’m a veteran. I can helpwith that,” Brunkel said.

The memorials inWashington D.C. are oftennot seen by the very veter-ans that they honor, Poppsaid. The Honor Flighttrips include visits to theWorld War II, Korean,Vietnam, Lincoln, and IwoJima Marine Memorialsand the tomb of the Un-known Soldier in Arling-ton National Cemetery.On the September HonorFlight, a special stop andtour of the Women in Mil-itary Service for AmericaMemorial and the Viet-nam Nurses Memorialwill be included.

While the expenses forthe senior veterans on theflight are all paid, theguardians must pay theirown passage, $440, unlesssponsors are found. Poppsaid she’s actively seek-ing sponsors to help offsetthe costs for the guard-ians.

Regardless of cost,Brunkel said she hopes tobe selected for the trip.Already her aunt and un-cle, Dan and KimberlyCronin, who own TymeOut sports bar in Colerain,have agreed to hold afundraiser. “Whatever wemake, we will donate,” shesaid.

Women veterans, oranyone knowing a womanveteran, interested in theflight can visit www.honorflighttristate.org orcall (513)277-9626.

THANKS TO HONOR FLIGHT TRI-STATE

Honor Flight Tri-State takes area veterans to Washington D.C.to visit the memorials that honor their service.

“Our employeewages and benefits aresplit between road main-tenance and waste col-lection, as they havebeen for the last 20years.

“The administrator’ssalary is allocated to var-ious funds, 50 percent towaste as it has been forthe last 15 years and theadministrative assistantis 40 percent.

“Mr. Jones used thisfigure ($187,000) as thegovernor’s salary whentrying to compare theadministrator’s salary tothe governor’s severalmonths ago. Mr. Jones isoff by 40 percent in hisclaim.”

Jones: “Mr. Lemonsays the township wouldhave to eliminate mostof (the waste) services(if the levy fails).”

Lemon: “The currentwaste levy expires Dec.31. If there is no levymoney to pay for theseservices we cannot pro-vide for them by usingfunds from other lev-ies.”

Jones: “What, is hegoing to lay off employ-ees?”

Lemon: “Not neces-sarily, but possibly. It de-pends upon what dutiesthey perform andwhether there are fundsto pay for them.”

Jones: “(Lemon) alsosays (the levy is needed)to offset the loss of reve-nue due to the state phas-ing out the tangible per-sonal-property tax.

“This levy is a speciallevy and can only beused for waste collection(by state law) and noth-ing else.

“It has nothing to dowith income loss fromthe tangible personal-property tax.

“A large majority ofincome generated forthe township comesfrom these special levies— waste, fire and police– which can only be usedfor these expenses.”

Lemon: “Mr. Jonesfails to understand thatthe waste fund and oth-ers collect tangible per-sonal-property tax aspart of the revenue foreach fund.

“Over the last threeyears we have collected$87,969 of tangible per-sonal-property tax in thewaste fund, which willdisappear with the pas-sage of (a state law).

“Solid-waste collec-tion and yard waste arecovered by the statutes.

Mr. Jones does not ap-parently understandwhat waste is under thelaw.

“(So far as levies usedfor specific services),that is correct; how arewe to provide waste-col-lection services if wehave no levy to pay forthem?”

Jones: “(Waste ser-vices are) very expen-sive if you look at the sal-aries paid out of thewaste levy for this work.

“We have one of themost expensive ‘wastecollectors’ in the area,including the adminis-trator and his adminis-trative assistant.

“The two employees .. . have nothing to do withwaste collection, but arepaid out of the levy.”

Lemon: “So who doesMr. Jones think negoti-ates the waste contract,prepares the bid specifi-cations and documents,meets with Rumpke toaddress issues thatarise, handles the com-plaints when trash isn’tpicked up, answers thecalls about brush andChristmas tree pick-upschedules, arranges thespecial pick-ups, ar-ranges for recyclingbins to be delivered orreplaced, answers theplethora of calls con-cerning leaf pick-ups?”

Jones: “Is (payingsalaries with waste levyproceeds) a violation of(state law)?”

Lemon: “No. Mr.Jones pulls a statute outof (state law) that hedoes not fully under-stand and uses it out ofcontext.

“We have been doingthis for 20 years andbeen audited by the stateauditor 10 ttimes with nocitation, comment or is-sue on the matter.”

Jones: “The currentlevy is enough for thenew contract for wastecollection.”

Lemon: “Budget pro-jections through 2018show a shortfall of$515,298 if the currentlevy is renewed, not in-cluding the tangible per-sonal-property tax reve-nue we are losing.”

Jones: “Also we juststarted collecting JEDZ(joint economic-devel-opment zone businesstax) funds. What arethese funds to be usedfor?”

Lemon: “As of nowwe really don’t knowhow much money theJEDZ will be generat-ing.

“Until we have moreinformation, we cannotdepend upon this sourceof revenue to pay for theprojected shortfall.”

Jones: “We are look-ing for two other con-tracts in the near future,are they going to need‘more tax money’?”

Lemon: “We are try-ing to assess this nowand determine whetherto cut service, whetherthe JEDZ can help re-duce projected deficits,whether ask for an in-crease in taxes or a com-bination of these.”

Jones: “More taxes isnot the answer; bettermanagement seems tobe the better solution.”

Lemon: “Tell this toall the communitiesacross Ohio who havelost millions and mil-lions of dollars of reve-nues cut by the state toprevent its projected $6billion deficit and seewhat kind of responseyou get from them.”

The application proc-ess was intense, but thereward was well worth itfor Madeira High School’sRachel Chambers and theother five students select-ed from Madeira, Marie-mont and Indian Hill toparticipate in the GlobalLeadership Summit inDavos, Switzerland.

“It was such an honorto be selected for some-thing like this,” Chamberssaid. “The Summit’s topicis education as a human

right, which is such a neatquestion to think about.It’s something everyoneshould have a right tohave.”

The six local studentsdepart June 19. Their 10-day trip will first takethem sightseeing in Parisand Amsterdam. Theirtravels will culminatewith a two-day summit inSwitzerland where theywill join 1,200 studentsfrom around the world allfocusing their attentionon education. Keynotespeaker will be Sir KenRobinson, an expert oncreativity and innova-tion.

The topic of this lead-ership summit is some-thing about which Cham-bers is passionate.

“I really believe in thefact that everyone de-serves to have a chancein this world to be suc-cessful,” she said. Unfor-tunately, the majority ofpeople don’t’ fit into themold schools have creat-ed for everybody.

“Our standards are sorigid. I think it’s some-thing we should changein our school system. Noteveryone fits in the castsociety has made forpeople,” Chambers said.

Education and humanrights are two topicsabout which Chambershas thought hard. Shepoured her passion andknowledge into a two min-ute video that each stu-dent participating in thesummit was to submit.Much to her surprise,Chambers’ video was oneof the top submissionsand earned her and tripchaperone MariemontMath Department chairJulie Bell the opportunityto dine with the summit’skeynote speaker.

The group of studentsfrom Madeira, Marie-

mont and Indian Hill are:Chambers and AddyYoung of Madeira HighSchool; Lindsay Hardenand William Hobart ofMariemont High School,and Kishan Sheth and Ma-ren McKenna of IndianHill High School. Bell saidit’s a great group of stu-dents.

In preparation for thetrip, Bell organized sever-al gatherings for hergroup of six summit par-ticipants.

“The group has reallyjelled,” she said.

For Bell, this will beher first time leading a

student excursion. Inpreparation, earlier thisyear she participated ina training session of-fered by EF Tours. Thetraining was held in Ma-drid and Toledo, Spain.

“We spent seven toeight hours in the class-room in Madrid,” shesaid. The rest actively

touring. Bell said the tripwas fun and she learned alot.

There were about 50teachers and they experi-enced everything from aperson getting sick, apick-pocket and someoneoversleeping.

“I feel very preparedand confident. The groupof kids we’re taking overthere are top drawer,” shesaid.

Bell said that she lovesthat the students are trav-eling and learning aboutsomething outside oftheir own bubbles.

“As far as the summitgoes, I really think it’s go-ing to be good for thesekids to see that they cancontribute to a greatergood,” she said.

Chambers is lookingforward to the summitand is hopeful that shewill gain knowledge abouthow individuals learn.The experience will bebeneficial as she pursuesa career in either specialeducation or nonprofitbusiness.

”I really am hoping Iwill learn something thatcan help me change theworld,” she said.

Chambers expressedher gratitude to the Ma-deira Schools Foundationwhich provided partialscholarships to her andYoung to help cover thetrip’s cost.

The students and Bellwill blog about their expe-rience. To see picturesand read about their ad-ventures, visit cincygoes-toeurope.wordpress.com

JULY 8, 2015 • EASTERN HILLS JOURNAL • 7ANEWS

My garlic is “scaping,” not “escap-ing!” Scapes are the unopened flowerheads of hard neck garlic, which manyfolks used to discard so that the energyof the plant isn’t wasted in the flower.

Now chefs are usingthese flower heads insoups, sauces and saladsand alongside grilledveggies.

I am so pleased thatgarlic growing at homeis a popular trend. Lastyear at Mother EarthNews Fair I stopped bythe organic garlic ven-dor after my presenta-tion. The line was two

deep and very long. That was a goodbarometer as to how important growinggarlic at home has come to be.

My friend and colleague RobertaPaolo of Granny’s Garden has beengrowing garlic in the children’s gar-dens at Loveland Primary School foryears. Try using the milder tastinggarlic scapes instead of garlic cloves.

My research has shown that the besttime of day to harvest scapes is duringthe afternoon when the sun is hot. Thatway, the wound you create by cuttingoff the scapes will dry quicker and healbetter.

Now what about green garlic? Greengarlic looks like a green onion with aflat green stem. It has a white bulb. It’sactually an immature garlic plant witha subtle flavor. It’s good to use in sal-ads, vinaigrettes, pastas, sauces, pizzasand marinades.

Both scapes and green garlic areturning up at local farmers’ markets.

How to grow garlic and a recipefor garlic scape pesto with basil

Garlic flowers lend subtle flavor to dishes

Grilled sausage penne with garlic scapes

I love this recipe. It’s so adaptable. Courtney Vonderhaar, aMount Washington reader, shared the original recipe using ajarred pasta sauce, minced garlic and rigatoni. Today I made itwith homemade sauce that I had made and frozen last winter andused garlic scapes instead of garlic cloves. Whether you go thehomemade route with garlic scapes or use a jarred pasta sauce andminced garlic, this is a dish that’s family friendly.

1 pound or so Italian sausage links (I used 8 oz. ea. mild andhot), grilled and sliced into coins

1 pound penne pasta, cooked3 tablespoons olive oil3 garlic scapes, cut up fine, or a teaspoon of minced garlicHalf of a small red onion, sliced thin (opt)2 red, yellow or orange bell peppers cut into stripsPasta sauce - I used about 4 cupsParmesan cheese

While pasta is cooking, sauté garlic in oil for 30 seconds, addpepper and onion, cook until tender, add sauce and sausage, heatuntil hot. Serve over pasta and sprinkle with Parmesan.

Brandied cherries with cloves and cinnamon

Now that sweet dark cherries are in season, I have beenmaking Mary Rudloff’s cherry bounce with whiskey and stringcandy. I know she is in heaven smiling and probably imbibing alittle, herself. I’m also trying this new recipe, which doesn’t haveto age for months like Mary’s. Unlike the cherry bounce, which is,medicinal (though it’s awfully good any time) brandied cherriesare a dessert treat.

11⁄4 cups water1 1⁄2 cups sugar2 whole cloves3” piece cinnamon stick4 cardamom pods4 cups sweet dark cherries, stemmed and pitted1⁄2 to 3⁄4 cup regular or cherry brandy or Cognac

Combine water, sugar and spices and bring to a simmer.After sugar dissolves, simmer about 5 minutes or so. Remove fromheat, add cherries and brandy and stir gently. Put lid on and letcool. Pour into glass jar and store in frig a week before eating.Keeps up to 3 months. Wonderful warm over ice cream.

July 1 questionHow do you feel about

removing Confederate flagsand other symbols of the Con-federacy? Are there any stepsyou think should be consideredhere in Greater Cincinnati?

“I can’t believe it has tak-en this long and such violentevent for this debate andpossible removal to occur. Idon’t recall any other war,where the losing side wasallowed to continue to flytheir flag, particularly in theland that was conquered. Tome it has always been akin toif parts of Germany felt thedesire to fly the swastikaflag, claiming it was aboutpride.

“You can try and spin ithowever you want, but theflag is about southern heri-tage and one of the big issuesof southern heritage the flagrepresents is slavery andrepression of blacks in Amer-ica. If a person is OK with itthan they can choose to fly itover their personal property,but it should not be associat-ed with any state that is partof our now unified, federalgovernment.

“I haven’t seen any flagsin Cincinnati, except headingup I-71 towards Columbusthere is a building with theflag painted on the roof ofwhat appears to be a garage.There really is nothing thatcan be done about that it isthere personal private prop-erty. The only thing it does isthat when my friends fromNorthern Ohio come to visitthey ask me how somethinglike that can still exist in thisday and age and it makes thisarea seem like we have intol-erant, backward thinkingpeople, that haven’t caughtup to what era we’re in.”

C.S.

“The same as I feel aboutit being OK. to rewrite histo-ry, so nobody feels bad ex-cept those who were part ofit. I can’t imagine that thereminder that this countryfought it’s bloodiest war overthe determination that we areto be one nation, could bemore appropriate in this eraof extreme division.

“The Confederate WarMemorial would certainlynot be appropriate for thedisplay of the Stars andStripes. There seems to be aproliferation of ConfederateBattle flags with the Revolu-tionary War symbol of astriking rattler, ‘Don’t Treadon Me.’ This is not the direc-tion I would like to see us go,but emphasizes a true needfor uniting behind the princi-ples espoused in our Declara-tion of Independence andConstitution as definitely notexpressions of ‘hate’ or rad-icalism.

‘Divided We Fall’ and ‘EPluribus Unum’ are rallyingpoints to remind us that wecan learn from mistakes andremain strong.”

D.B.

“As far as I know, the Warof Northern Aggression islong over and has been forquite some time. For thosethat still want to hold dear totheir silly Confederate flags,go figure, it is a free country.I am not aware that the de-ranged individual who mur-dered all of those unfortu-nate people in the SC churchwas carrying a Confederate

flag. What he did is morethan wrong and pure evil.But, to jump on this unfortu-nate incident as a cause to ridthe world of that flag seems abit overmuch, and very simi-lar to the bandwagon to banall guns that a lot of peoplewant to jump on after everysenseless school/church/workplace shooting.

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWhat was the best summer jobyou had? The worst? Whatmade it so good or so bad?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

Now that summer has ar-rived, I have a little more freetime to spend with my family.

I am enjoying time with mywife and children exploringrecreational activities aroundtown, like Reds games, KingsIsland and some of Cincinnati’sgreat parks and grabbing abite to eat at local restaurants.As I drive through our schooldistrict, I always take note ofhow many of our local busi-nesses are devoted supportersof Mariemont City Schools.

Toward the end of theschool year, we asked ourschool support organizations togive us a list of the businessesthat have supported themthrough the year. So far, I knowof nearly 50 businesses thatcontributed to our schools lastyear, businesses that want an

excellent edu-cational expe-rience for ouryouth.

Many ofthese busi-nesses areapproachedmultiple timesthroughout theschool year,and manycompassion-

ately obliged to whatever wasasked of them — whether itwas donating money, time,talent or event space. Many ofthese business owners do nothave children in the district,many are not district residentsthemselves and some of themare not even in our school dis-trict; but still, they support ourschools. They believe in Marie-

mont City Schools and the goodthings we are collectively do-ing for tomorrow’s leaders.

I always say that it is thecommunity that sets our dis-trict apart from most. Wewould not be able to provide allof the enriching opportunitieswe do without the support ofeveryone in our community,and this includes our busi-nesses.

Next time you patronize anyof your district’s local busi-nesses, thank them for every-thing they do for our students,our children, our scholars oftoday. I certainly appreciatethem, and it would be great ifyou let them know that youappreciate them too!

Information presented bythe Ohio Department of Trans-portation officials this pastmonth has triggered a signifi-cant change regarding certainimprovements under study inthe Eastern Corridor Multimo-dal Improvement Projects(Eastern Corridor Project)between the Red Bank Road/U.S. 50 interchange area andNewtown Road.

ODOT representatives noti-fied us that the multimodalalternative alignments for the“Segment II” portion of the

Eastern Corri-dor Project,between theLittle MiamiRiver on thewest and New-town Road onthe east, thatwere previ-ously identi-fied as beingfeasible andunder furtherstudy as poten-

tial preferred alignments arenow thought to contain signifi-cant challenges for utilizationas future transportation corri-dors.

We were all very muchaware of the challenges asso-ciate with the Segment IInorthern multimodal align-ment that would impact theMariemont South 80. I do notrecall any of us on the locallevel supporting this northernalignment. The northern align-ment was proposed for furtherstudy because it contained anexisting freight rail line, wasbeing considered for shareduse passenger rail operationsand encompassed a site offavorable stability for a newbridge crossing the Little Mi-ami River.

However, the southern Seg-ment II multimodal alignmentunder study, which wouldcross the Little Miami Riversouth of Fairfax in the vicinityan existing landfill, appearedto be less intrusive and worthyof further examination.ODOT’s recently articulatedposition now creates a signifi-cant change in thought regard-ing this southern alignment,

due to the newly expressedconcerns relating to magnitudeof impacts in the area that maycontain Native American arti-facts or remains as well asconcerns about the liability ofplacing and operating infra-structure in what is now alandfill adjacent to the river.

Along with a shift in publicfeedback, it is now thoughtthat the proposed Segment IIsouthern alignment also con-tains significant challenges forfuture utilization.

Therefore, a new approachwill be pursued in the SegmentII area between the Little Mi-ami River and Newtown Roadthat will place greater focus onplacing proposed improve-ments on existing transporta-tion corridors. The originalphilosophy developed by East-ern Corridor community lead-ers and stakeholders over theyears was to develop rail, tran-sit, roadway, bike and pedestri-an improvements in an in-tegrated fashion to provideimproved travel efficiency andreturn the local streets to thelocal communities. This newapproach will attempt to domuch of same things with few-er potential environmentalimpacts but will need to makemuch greater use of existingcommunity roadways andinfrastructure.

In reconfiguring the solu-tion to the connectivity prob-lems within the Eastern Corri-dor of our region, it will beimportant to keep intact asmany of the proposed trans-portation improvements thatdo not pose the perceived siz-able environmental risks. Thestate Route 32 Segment III

improvements between New-town and I-275 in particularwill provide much neededaccess to areas with tremen-dous economic developmentpotential, such as the Ancorsite in Anderson Township, andwill provide an important al-ternative for commercial traf-fic that attempts to use Round-bottom Road.

It is extremely importantthat the Eastern Corridor com-munity leaders and stakehold-ers remain engaged withODOT in the process of devel-oping transportation improve-ments in the eastern sector ofthe Cincinnati metropolitanarea, to address growing traveldemand on an inadequate ex-isting transportation network,which is recognized and char-acterized by insufficient ca-pacity, safety issues, limitedoptions and inadequate linkageto the region’s key transporta-tion corridors for the efficientmovement of people, goodsand services.

Addressing the travel defi-ciencies will involve far morethan just new signal systemsand pavement striping. Newmulti-modal infrastructureimprovements including railand roadway are still verymuch a part of the EasternCorridor Project. I look for-ward to working with commu-nity leaders, stakeholders andODOT to ensure we reap thebenefits of smart infrastruc-ture improvements that sup-port and sustain the changingland use and travel patternsfor years to come.

Two of Cincinnati’s premiersoccer clubs — Kings Hammerand Cincinnati United Premier— are both headed back to theU.S. Youth Soccer NationalChampionships July 21-26 in Tul-sa, Okla., where both will at-tempt to bring a national cham-pionship back to the Queen City.

Cincinnati United Premierand Kings Hammer have bothbeen busy in July over the lastfive years on the pitch againstthe nation’s high-end soccercompetition.

This year, Cincinnati United,whose highest-level teams ineach age group are referred toas CUP, qualified two boys’teams and one girls’ team to na-tionals. Kings Hammer, who’stop teams are known as KHA,advanced a pair of girls’ teams tonationals.

Traveling to Oklahoma forCUP are the U14 girls, coachedby Bobby Puppione and Kim andRob Scheper; U14 boys, coachedby John Michael Hayden andU18 boys, coached by Terry Ni-choll. KHA is sending its U16girls, coached by Chris Black,and U17 girls, coached by Tiffa-ny Roberts.

Puppione, who’s also the Cin-cinnati United girls’ director ofcoaching, said CUP’s U18 boyswere a national semifinalist ayear ago, and they’ve qualifiedto nationals in three of the lastfour years.

At nationals, there are eightteams remaining in each agegroup, that then split into sub-groups of four. Those four teamsall play each other, and the toptwo from each group advance tothe semifinals.

“They’re excited to be repre-senting our city, state and re-gion,” said Puppione. “It’s veryimpressive the amount of quali-ty soccer players this city con-tinues to produce. The entirestate has really embraced thegame.”

KHA’s U17 won a regionalchampionship to advance to na-tionals, while its U16 team qual-ified by finishing top-two in theNational League.

Roberts, who’s the girls’ exec-utive director and also coachesthree teams for Kings Hammer,said the KHA teams are bothnervous and excited. KHA has achance to avenge some losses atnationals.

“In some cases, they’re excit-ed to get a second chance atsome teams,” Roberts said.“They know how tough the levelof competition is going to be.”

In recent years, Cincinnatiteams have proven they cancompete on the national soccerstage. Roberts, who’s beencoaching in Cincinnati for thelast six years, said the local tal-ent has become more organized,which has produced a higherlevel of play.

“Cincinnati soccer in the lastfive years has taken a reallygood step,” Roberts said.

HYDE PARK — They havebeen to Columbus twice in thelast month with a trip to theNew Balance Nationals inGreensboro, N.C., in between.

Early in the season, theWithrow High School girlstrack team competed at theUniversity of Florida.

The Lady Tigers get aroundthe oval and around the maplike an orange blaze of glory.They sent departing coach andathletic director Darren Brad-dix out on top June 6 with theDivision I Ohio state teamtrack championship.

Their time at the NationalsJune 19-21 was also very pro-ductive. Competing with thebest of the best, the Lady Ti-gers took second in the 800sprint medley at 1:45.73. Theywere also fifth in the 4x100 witha season-best 46.83 and sixth inthe 4x200 at 1:40.39. While fin-ishing 12th in the 1,000 sprintmedley Swedish Relay, With-row set a state record of 2:15.

The Lady Tigers did bringhome one national title in the1,600 sprint medley in theEmerging Elite division at4:11.62.

Individually, Withrow’s Al-bert Kalala also made the tripand took third in the EmergingElite boys high jump at 1.97 me-ters (just under 6’ 5”).

The state title led to a visitfrom a trio of track athletesnow serving in the Ohio legisla-ture. Reps. Denise Driehaus,Alicia Reece and ChristieKuhns stopped by WithrowJune 15. They recognized thehard work of the squad and in-vited them back to the capitalfor a formal proclamation infront of the state’s top politi-cians.

“It’s exciting as a delegationto have these young womencome up (to Columbus),” Drie-haus said. “We get to talk aboutour districts and the accom-plishments of the young wom-en here.”

Reece is a 1989 Withrow

graduate who ran track to stayin condition for basketball.

“To stand here with greatchampions, I’m just very proudof these young ladies,” Reecesaid. “Let’s get behind youngpeople when they’re doingsomething positive! Theseyoung ladies have done that.”

Senior Ayanna O’Neal wasstate champion in the 100 me-ter hurdles and fourth in the300 hurdles. She was on thechampionship 4x100 relay withsophomore Doneasha Brewer,senior Destiny Pennington andsenior Niyah Carpenter. Shealso was on the Withrow 4x400relay that brought home the ti-tle with a second-place finish,some six seconds better thanany previous race. O’Neal wasjoined by Pennington, Carpen-ter and senior Mercedes Smith.

“It was going to come to thelast race, we had been talkingabout that all season long,”Braddix said of the final 4x400.“They went out there and com-

peted and we dropped about 6.5seconds off of our PR comingin. It was a Disney ending to mycareer here at Withrow.”

The sophomore Brewer hada busy day taking second in the200 meters, eighth in the longjump and 100 hurdles, alongwith being on the winning4x100 team.

Pennington was part of thewinning 4x100 and the second-place 4x200 and 4x400. Mer-cedes Smith was on the 4x200and 4x400 that was second andfreshman J’Aliyea Smith wasalso on the second-place 4x200team. Simone Mason and TiaRoberts served as relay re-serves.

“Everybody had two orthree races on that day, somehad four races,” said Braddix,new Colerain High School ath-letic director. “They knew thatit was a state championshipand they could rest later.”

During the season, the With-row girls won the Taft Down-town Go Around meet, the LaSalle Larosa’s Classic, the East-ern Cincinnati ConferenceChampionship, Division I re-gional championship in Daytonalong with sharing the DivisionI state title.

READING — When thephone first rang and thecaller identified them-selves as being from La-Rosa’s Pizzeria, Lori Rappwas thinking she just wonfree pizza.

As it turned out, the piewasn’t free, but the invita-tion to be inducted into theLaRosa’s High School Hallof Fame was an honor theformer Mount NotreDame diver and nowcoach couldn’t ignore.

The 1988 MND grad(Lori Rizzuto) was one ofseven honored June 28 atWCET-TV studios for herdiving efforts in highschool and college where

she was anAll-Ameri-can at theUniversityof Cincin-nati.

“What aclassy,amazingbanquet,”

Rapp said of the festivi-ties. “They just do such anice job. That’s been 27years ago (since her MNDdiving days). It’s an amaz-ing honor to inducted withthat group.”

As a coach, she has tu-tored divers in the Great-er Cincinnati area at vari-ous schools, but most re-cently has been withMND, Mason, St. Xavierand Summit Country Day.

At Summit, she coachedrecent state championStewart Spanbauer.

In the past she has alsocoached at Highlands, In-dian Hill, Madeira and Ur-suline. She currentlyleads the Mason divers attheir own pool and bringsMND, St. Xavier and Sum-mit with her club team,Tri-State Diving, to UC’sfacilities.

Her knowledge of theintricate sport is immea-surable and she has thebattle wounds of back is-sues and shoulder surger-ies to support her words ofwisdom.

“When you dive plat-form, you’re 33 feet in theair and you’re going about45 miles an hour,” she said.

“When you don’t hit thatwater perfectly, water isnot forgiving. It’s hard!”

Rapp was in the SeniorNational Championshipsat age 14 and eventuallyparticipated in the 1988Olympic Trials in Indian-apolis in platform diving.In 1992, she was in theOlympic Trials for plat-form and 3-meter spring-board.

With the Cougars, shewas a four-time NationalHigh School All-Americanand first-team All-City inboth the Cincinnati En-quirer and the former Cin-cinnati Post.

She won the state titlethree straight years andset a record in her 1988senior season. She just

missed four straight titleswith a narrow loss as afreshman.

“I missed it by like one-tenth of a point to a girl Idove against in club,”Rapp recalled.

Spanbauer was hermost recent champion andshe’s also tutored threegirls state champions(Brittany Hill, Indian Hill;Jennifer Funch, Ursuline;Molly Elkins, Centerville/Tri-State Diving).

“We are a very small,close-knit community,”Rapp said. “Pretty muchall of the kids know eachother. I have three of myown kids, but I consider allof these kids mine. I havea huge extended family.”

Years ago, local illus-

trator Hank Zureick cre-ated caricatures for localprep athletes that ap-peared in the local papersand adorned walls ofneighborhood LaRosa’srestaurants. Lori RizzutoRapp was once immortal-ized by the late sports pro-moter, so she’s actuallybeen in a LaRosa’s “hall”for awhile.

“Hank Zureick, Godlove him, what a greatman!” Rapp said. “In mycaricature I had the big80s hair. I wish they didthat still. One of my son’sfriends went over to Bou-dinot (LaRosa’s) after ahigh school game and senthim a text saying, ‘I justsaw your mom’s pictureon the wall!’”

What may have beenthe halftime speech ofCarl Kremer’s life neverhappened on March 21,2003.

With his Moeller HighSchool basketball teamholding a nine-point lead inthe Division I semifinalagainst ClevelandHeights, Kremer had spo-ken with his coaches andwas about deliver a few co-gent remarks.

One of his Crusader as-sistants stopped him.

“Joe’s got this,” Kremerwas told.

Ateam that featured fu-ture Division I startersJosh Duncan, AndrewBrackman and Bubba Wal-ther, along with seniorpoint guard Rob Christie,found inspiration fromrole player/motivationalforward Joe Kimener.

Specifically, a guy whoaveraged a bucket or two agame lectured shot-happyguard Walther over an ill-advised heave before half-time.

“We used to run 1-4 lowwith one guy at the top andfour guys at the baselinefor the last shot,” Kimenersaid. “Bubba didn’t have avery good first half and hehad the ball. I told him,‘They’re going to come anddouble you. At that point,you’ve got to give it up be-cause there will be some-body open.’ That’s exactlywhat happened and heforced a bad shot.”

Twelve years later, thereceiver of Kimener’shalftime wrath confirmsthe story and supports hisactions.

“I took a bad shot at theend of the half and Joe putme in my place,” Walthersaid. “At a certain point inthe year, Joe and Robbiemade all of the in-game ad-justments on the court forus. They were just exten-sions of the coaches on thecourt.”

Kimener’s messagewas received as the Cru-saders got the ball to Dun-can and Brackman, whohad 27 and 25 points, re-spectively. Moeller built a19-point third quarter lead,but gave it up. In overtime,they had a 16-point spurtand went on to win 85-74.

Knocking off No. 6One night later, the Cru-

saders took down the No. 6team in the nation, Colum-bus Brookhaven, whichfeatured Oklahoma-boundBrandon Faust and DrewLavender (both wouldtransfer, with Lavendercoming to Xavier). Theyweren’t favored, butpulled it out 73-65 forKremer’s second state ti-tle.

Moeller’s junior powertrio topped the scoringwith Duncan at 23, Waltherat 19 and Brackman at 18.

All three had signifi-cant college careers, plusKremer had two reservebig men on the roster insophomores Ryan Chil-dress and Tyler Dierkers.

“You had five kids onthat team that ended upplaying DI basketball at apretty high level,” Kremersaid. “Brackman was atNC State, Josh was at Xa-vier, Bubba started out atAkron and then went toOhio U, Chilly (Childress)ended up at Tennessee andDierkers had a great ca-reer at Miami.”

More than the boxscore

Many may recognizethe names of Duncan,Brackman and Waltherfrom 2003. However, with-out their reliable upper-classmen, the Crusadersmay have come up short.

“The unsung heroes onthat ’03 team were the twoseniors,” Kremer said.“Robby Christie, the pointguard, was the heart andsoul. Tough, guarded any-body, had no fear andwould not miss a freethrow. Joe Kimener wasone of the best defenders Iever had. He defendedone-on-one and was greataway from the ball.”

Walther, who hascoached with former Cru-sader Matt Rooks at Wyo-ming and now LakotaWest, calls Christie and Ki-mener the best leadershe’s ever been around.Without their grinding ef-forts, an arguably moretalented 2004 team fellshort of the crown.

“People would say,‘Why do you play Kimen-er?’ ” Kremer said. “Thereprobably were guys that inone-on-one games werebetter, but nobody fit thatrole that this team needed.We needed a ‘glue’ guy.This team doesn’t winstate that year without JoeKimener.”

Juniors key to thejourney

Of course, the DI talentdidn’t hurt.

Josh Duncan was all-league for three straight

years. Trained by his fa-ther, Kremer recalls thepower forward doing ri-diculous amounts of push-ups to strengthen his 6-foot-7 frame. Now playingoverseas, Duncan isamong Moeller’s all-timeleaders in many catego-ries, trailing only BobbyBrannen and Byron Lar-kin in scoring. He shotmore free throws than anyCrusader.

“In his sophomore yearwe moved him up and hewas probably the bestplayer on our team,”Kremer said. “By his ju-nior year, he was a bigname around the state al-ready. Even though he was6-7, 6-8, he was a phenome-nal shooter.”

Opposite of Duncanwas late bloomer AndrewBrackman. During his ju-nior year, Brackman was6-foot-7, but would latergrow to 6-foot-10 and signto play basketball andbaseball at North CarolinaState. Not only did he leadMoeller to a basketball ti-tle in 2003, he pitched theCrusaders to a state base-ball championship the fol-lowing year.

“Brack’s probably themost talented player andathlete I’ve ever beenaround,” Walther said.

In baseball, he becamea first-round choice of theYankees in 2007. In basket-ball, many includingKremer, think he couldhave played in the NBA. AtNC State in the ACC, hestarted as a freshman.With the Crusaders hewent from a couple ofearly scholarship offers tobeing a hot commodity in

2003.“About midway

through the year at St. Ig-natius, he had a gamewhere he scored in the 20swith four man-like dunksin transition in traffic,”Kremer said. “He just allof a sudden blossomed.Now, we had these twobookend players.”

Adding to the Moellerarsenal was Walther. Hav-ing led the Greater MiamiConference in scoring as asophomore at Colerain, hetransferred as a junior toplay with his friend Brack-man and AAU teammateChristie. In the backcourtwith Christie, he hadKremer’s blessing to shootwith reliable post optionsin Duncan and Brackman.

“As a guard, it was easyto get the ball to them andthey would make you lookbetter,” Walther said.

In just two seasons withMoeller, he made 101treys.Recent grad Grant Benz-inger has the record with130, but had Waltherplayed three seasons likemany on the list, he likelywould be on top.

Vision began earlyThe origins of the 2003

title run can also be tracedback to Christie and Ki-mener. As eighth-gradersthey attended Moeller’s1999 state championshipand marveled over the tal-ents of former CrusaderMike Monserez. As part ofa talented freshman classthe following season, theycame into camp and boast-ed publicly of their goal towin their own champion-ship.

“Our freshman class

was really good and every-body compared us to thatteam,” Kimener said. “Wegot really tired of hearingabout it because wethought we could do whatthey did.”

Though the develop-ment of Duncan andBrackman and transfer ofWalther helped, Kimeneralso credits the GreaterCatholic League mentalityand the rigorous practicesessions against playersthat likely would start atother schools.

“Guys we practicedagainst every day weregreat athletes in othersports,” Kimener said.“The competitive environ-ment was incredibly high.Tyler Stovall played base-ball in Michigan (CentralMichigan) and was one ofthe better players in theconference and Blake Car-ter was a great footballplayer who played DI(Central Florida).”

Nothing isguaranteed

With Childress andDierkers gaining moreminutes in the rotation in2004 along side Duncan,Brackman and Walther, a2004 title seemed to be areasonable expectation.But, as Moeller upsetBrookhaven in 2003, theColumbus school returnedserve the following year,knocking the favorite Cru-saders out.

Though the five DIplayers all were a part of2003, they played more asa group in 2004. The teamhad enough talent to takeon an array of future proson an undefeated Oak HillAcademy squad. Facingthe likes of Rajon Rondo(Kentucky), Josh Smith(straight to NBA), K.C.Rivers (Clemson), BrianJohnson (Louisville) andDayshawn Wright (Syra-cuse), the Crusaders gavethem a scare.

“They beat us by four,”Kremer said. “We cut it totwo with a minute to go. Itwas the only close gamethey had all year.”

Also on the 2004 teamwas former UC walk-onPatrick Watt. A year aftertheir 23-4 championshipyear, the Crusaders fin-ished 22-3.

EpilogueIn addition to Christie,

Walther, Duncan, Kimen-er, Brackman, Childressand Dierkers, the 2003championship roster in-cluded senior AndrewJuenger, senior CraigBecker, junior Ryan Trai-nor, sophomore TylerHoward, junior Blake Car-

ter, junior P.J. Juenger,senior Willie DeTempleand junior Tyler Stovall.

Duncan is currentlyplaying in Israel andBrackman will be induct-ed into the La Rosa’s Hallof Fame in June as one ofthe area’s finest prep ath-letes ever.

As a high school coach,Walther makes the roundsduring tournament time,scouting the talent andreminiscing of jumpinginto his teammates’ armsone March in Columbus.The group had a 10-yearreunion a couple of yearsback and Walther stillthinks they could string afew watchable minutes to-gether on the hardwood.

“We joke around thatwe could get together andstill beat some of the highschool teams aroundhere,” Walther said.

“A Name You Can Trust”

If you have a lan-dline in your home youknow what often hap-pens right around din-ner time – a phone callfrom a telemarketer.This occurs eventhough you’re listed on

the feder-al Do-Not-CallRegistry,which isintendedto protectyou fromsuchunwant-ed salescalls.

Now,new federal regula-tions have been en-acted designed to pro-tect consumers fromunwanted robocallsand texts. The FederalCommission Commis-sion says text mes-sages to wireless phoneare considered callsand are now subject tothe same consent re-quirement as phonecalls to landlines.

Consumers can nowtell their phone serviceproviders they want tohave robocalls blockedso they are not dis-turbed. Under thesenew rules, phone ser-vice providers can nowoffer such blockingservices and technol-ogy to their customers.Prior to this rulingproviders believedthey could not blockany calls for fear ofbreaking the law.

Under these newregulations consumerswho previously agreedto receive calls from abusiness can now re-voke that consent atany time. In addition,being on an acquaint-ance’s wireless phonecontact list is no longerconsidered to havegiven permission toreceive robocalls.

The FCC says its

actions restrictingunwanted telemarket-ing calls is designed tobolster the effective-ness of the Do-Not-CallRegistry. It says thiscloses loopholes andensures that consum-ers are fully protectedfrom unwanted calls,including those notcovered by the regis-try.

The FCC says itreceives thousands ofcomplaints each monthabout such unwantedrobocalls. In fact, theyare the largest numberof complaints the com-mission receives, num-bering more than215,000 last year.

Many of these un-wanted calls comefrom outside the coun-try or from companiesthat ignore the Do-Not-Call Registry. That’swhy this new rulingallows phone compa-nies to block such callsfrom ever gettingthrough.

However, spoofingin which callers changetheir phone numbers,may be a way some tryto get around phonecompany blocks. Com-panies are now lookingto develop new ways toblock such calls. But itremains to be seen ifphone companies willoffer the blocking ser-vice.

Cincinnati Bell saysit is waiting for theFCC to release the fulltext of its order beforedeciding what to do. Ina statement, CincinnatiBell says, “That willallow us to fully un-derstand what we canand cannot do for cus-tomers who want toblock robocalls.”

Theagency’s goal is to assistveterans through com-prehensive case manage-ment, employment train-ing and a continuum ofcare services.

These services willbenefit all job-seekingveterans and will providethe opportunity to obtainnationally accreditedcertifications including,

but not limited to: com-mercial driving license,construction certifica-tions, culinary arts train-ing/certifications (inpartnership with the Fre-estore Foodbank), STNA/CNA, manufacturing cer-tifications and GED/ABLE.

To provide the neededservices and opportuni-ties, CAA will be workingwith current partners,forging new relation-ships within the GreaterCincinnati and HamiltonCounty area and seekingto expand current em-ployment programs to in-clude veterans and theirfamilies, such as the Tem-porary Assistance for

Needy Families (TANF)program, which current-ly provides summer em-ployment to youththrough partnership withHamilton County Job andFamily Services. Pro-gram staff at CAA willalso work with programparticipants to apply forand and/or receive addi-tional benefits providedby various organizationsoffering assistance toveterans for which theymay be eligible.
