Boone library director retiring By Paul McKibben

COMMUNITY RECORDER

After more than two decades of serving the Boone County Public Library as its director, Lucinda Brown is returning home. Brown, a Florence resident, is retiring on Aug. 31 and will be moving back to Marietta, Ohio, where she was born and grew up. She said her primary reason for retiring is her mother who turned 90 in March. “So, I’m going home to not take care of her, like nursing care ... like she can’t take care of herself, but to be there and just to be a companion for her,” Brown said, though mother and daughter won’t be residing at the same place.

B r o w n became director in April 1985. She previously worked for the Campbell County Public Library. She has a bachelor’s degree in Brown school library media from Marshall University and a master’s degree in library information science from the University of Kentucky. Brown said she entered the profession “because when my mother was carrying me she was a school librarian and I’m sure she inhaled book dust and it traveled through her system right into me and I was predestined to be a

librarian from before I was born.” As a child, Brown (who also loved horses) said she remembers her mother bringing home every Marguerite Henry and every Walter Farley book, all of the authors back in the day who wrote horse stories. Brown said when she a little bit older she would be one of those children under the blankets with a flashlight reading her book and staying up too late reading. She said she started reading fairly adult level books by the time she was probably 12. She currently likes to read mysteries now and also does books on tape. During Brown’s tenure, the Boone County library has undergone lots of change.

When she started, its only branch was the Florence one. Since then, branches were added in Hebron, Union and Walton. It manages the Chapin Memorial Library in Petersburg. A new Main Library opened last year in Burlington. The library has also kept up with the technological times. Brown said the library is close to cutting-edge. “Our biggest accomplishment, I think, is that we have been able to keep up with the growth of this county,” she said. Brown will be replaced by Greta Southard, executive director of the Public Library Association. Her first day is Sept. 8.

Getting ready

Laura Hankins of Burlington rides her horse, Pistol, Monday afternoon at the Boone County Fairgrounds in Burlington. Hankins was trying to get the horse prepared for Monday evening’s Western Pleasure Horse Show at the Boone County 4-H & Utopia Fair. The fair continues through Saturday.

Schools take swine flu precautions By Nancy Daly ndaly@nky.com

School districts in Boone County are taking a proactive approach to preventing a swine flu outbreak. Walton-Verona Schools, which starts school on Aug. 6, is diving right in to build awareness of the H1N1 virus during the first two weeks of school. “When you look statistically at what swine flu is doing right now, it really is comparable to what we have seen in a normal influenza season,” said Becky Acuff, a public health nurse assigned to the high school and middle school. “That’s what is a little bit alarming.” Also, Acuff added, “right now it’s a flu that we don’t yet have a vaccine for.” “We’re really going to work hard with our kids during the first two weeks of school. I’m going to

Navigate your way to the right car for you.

get with each student in the first two weeks about how to prevent getting sick,” Acuff said. Nurses will discuss with students the importance of hand washing, covering your cough and coughing or sneezing into your elbow. “We’re going to talk about being physically active, getting plenty of rest, drinking plenty of fluids and eating healthy,” she added. Students will be encouraged to stay home if they have a fever, sore throat, cough and typical flu symptoms. The school has a policy of sending students home if they have a fever over 100 degrees. They can’t come back to school until 24 hours after the fever has subsided. New this year, nurses will be doing follow-up phone calls to students who are home with a fever to check on their progress. “We are going to have to increase our surveillance with our

families. We can’t do this alone. It’s going to take cooperation from students, families and everyone here at school,” Acuff said. The Northern Kentucky Independent District Health Department has planned a swine flu workshop for school nurses and health officials on Sept. 9, said spokeswoman Emily Gresham Wherle. Ten cases of swine flu have been reported in Northern Kentucky, seven of them in Boone County. Wherle said a vaccine is in development and is not expected to be available until at least midOctober. The Centers for Disease Control has identified the following priorities of who should get the vaccine: Pregnant women, people who live with or care for children less than 6 months old, health care and emergency services workers, children ages 6 months to 24 years old, and peo-

ple 25-64 who have chronic health problems. The week of Aug. 3-7, a school nurse and a safety director from Boone County Schools are participating in a state-sponsored Pandemic Influenza Exercise, a simulated session on handling a swine flu outbreak. “We did have some cases (of swine flu) last spring,” said Kathy Reutman, executive director of student services. After that the school refined its strategy, she said. “The big thing is awareness, keep making sure we remind children and teachers to cover their mouth when they sneeze, washing their hands, all those proactive things, staying home when they’re sick.” Boone County Schools open on Aug. 19 and Reutman said they expect to refine their swine flu strategy more after the pandemic exercise this week.

CVG fares lower

For the first time in years, Cincinnati is not the most expensive air market in the

nation, a sign that Delta Air Lines’ fare reductions are taking hold. According to data released by the federal Transportation Department, fares from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport averaged $446 per domestic round trip during the first quarter of this year. The airport previously had been No. 1 for air fares for nine straight quarters, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, including the fourth quarter of 2008, when fares averaged $554 from CVG. Still, the first quarter figure was second-highest in the nation behind Huntsville, Ala., which had an average of $505 per trip. Overall, fares fell by 9.1 percent nationally between the fourth quarter of last year and first quarter 2009, the biggest quarterover-quarter drop since records have been kept. The latest figures didn’t take into full account the lower fares implemented by Delta – which dominates the local hub with more than 80 percent of all traffic – in early February, after the first quarter began. The lower fares have meant more local traffic at CVG. The number of passengers starting a trip at the airport in Hebron for June was more than double the January figure, according to the most recent data supplied by the airport. Local passengers now account for nearly 47 percent of total traffic, CVG officials say. Kentucky News Service

Cummings said the performance audit is mandated by state law that says the Department of Revenue will conduct a biennial performance audit of each of the PVAs’ offices. The law says the audit will include an inspection of maps and records, an appraisal study of real property and an evaluation of the overall effectiveness of the office. Cummings said a review of the tax roll and the tax roll program will be conducted along with any documents submitted to explain the error in the tax roll program. A meeting with Rich was scheduled for Monday, Aug. 3. Cummings said the audit was to begin later that week and will take more than one day to complete. A narrative should be available no later than Aug. 31, Cummings said.

Democratic Boone County Clerk Rena Ping plans to run for re-election in 2010. “It’s in my blood. I love what I do. I love helping out the citizens where I can and it’s something I’ve always done,” she said. Ping, 44, used to work in the Grant County clerk’s office. She’s been in the Boone County clerk’s office since September 1995 starting out as a deputy clerk. She was elected clerk in 2006, replacing Democrat Marilyn Rouse who didn’t run for a third term. Ping was basically unopposed in the general election. Republican Ed Moore dropped out of the race less than a month before the election. There were no write-in candidates. Renovations have been done to the clerk’s office in the Boone County Administration Building in Burlington and more are planned. Ping said the clerk’s office now has all new computer hardware furnished from the state that saved a lot of money because it was all free. The Boone County Fiscal Court received a federal grant for new voting

machines. The Fiscal Court didn’t renew the lease with the county’s w a t e r department Ping to house the old machines. The new voting machines are now stored in the administration building. Ping said she’s visited some of the schools to help with mock elections. She said one of her goals in this term was to get another clerk’s office possibly in the Walton or Union area. She said that probably won’t happen this time because of money. But it’s something she still would like to see happen because the county is only going to get larger. Two Republicans are running for the seat: Kenny Brown, a former chairman of the Boone County Republican Party, and Boone County Magistrate Justin Crigler. Ping said the clerk’s office is not a Republican or a Democratic office but for her, it’s the citizens’ office. “My party does not run this office,” she said. “I do.” Ping is 1982 graduate of Grant County High School.

By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

The race for Boone County clerk next year is already attracting several candidates. Republican Boone County Magistrate Justin Crigler announced on July 29 that he would seek the office that is currently held by Democrat Rena Ping. Crigler is the son of former Boone County Attorney Larry Crigler and the grandson of John Crigler who also was Boone County attorney. Crigler, 35, Hebron, graduated from Highlands High School in 1992. He also has graduated from Warner University and the Salmon P. Chase College of Law at Northern Kentucky University. He worked as the tax administrator in the Boone County attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office after graduating from law school. He is currently is the director of acquisitions and lien purchasing for North American Tax Solutions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I understand the role although Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never actually

worked in the clerkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office,â&#x20AC;? he said. A press release from his campaign said as tax administrator, Crigler worked everyday in the clerkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office helping the county and citizens with tax issues. He said with his current job heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in a county clerkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office everyday doing real estate work. He said the two most important issues to him probably would be customer service and the election process. The clerkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office manages elections in the county. In 2006, Crigler was elected Boone County magistrate from District 1 (Burlington, Hebron, Petersburg and the river communities from Rabbit Hash to Constance). He said by law a magistrate can issue notaries and marry people. Ping has said she plans to seek a second term. Kenny Brown of Florence, a former Boone County Republican Party chairman, is also running for clerk on the GOP side in addition to Crigler.

Ava Murray might only be 4 years old but already sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s made an impact on the lives of some children who are ill. The little girl, a Union resident, had a Kool-Aid stand called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kool-Aid 4 Kidneysâ&#x20AC;? on July 19 for two hours at her parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; driveway. She raised $660 for Camp Sunshine in Casco, Maine. The camp is for children who have life-threatening sicknesses and their immediate families. Gina Murray, Avaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother, said Ava and her cousin kept talking about having a lemonade stand. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I asked her what she was going to do with her money and she said she wanted to help people,â&#x20AC;?

New company locating in Boone By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

The Boone County Fiscal Court is considering a tax incentive package for ACS Commercial Solutions Inc. that wants to open a facility at 1670 Dolwick Drive, Erlanger. ACS Commercial Solutions is a division of Dallasbased Affiliated Computer Services Inc. Of the new approximately 81 full-time jobs, 20 will be Kentucky residents. Under the package, the company would receive the full 0.8 percent of the county’s payroll tax that the 20 new Kentucky residents would pay. It would also receive 4 percent of the state’s income tax that those 20 workers pay. The money would be used for startup costs. The incentives are for 10 years. The Fiscal Court had a first reading of the package at its July 21 meeting. It was scheduled to have a second reading on Aug. 25.

Karen Finan of the TriCounty Economic Development Corp. told the Fiscal Court the company would like to activate the project in November (start the hiring process). Affiliated Computer Services does business process outsourcing for government and businesses. Its work includes health care claims processing, human resources, accounting and payment processing. It’s a Fortune 500 company.

Jump Start gets students ready for sixth grade By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

Moving up to middle school can be a stressful time, but a program is showing there’s no need to fret. R.A. Jones Middle School hosts its annual Jump Start program to

help incoming sixth-graders “gain confidence and alleviate fears” about moving to middle school, said Teacher Terri Webb. The program ran two sessions this summer. Students would get picked up on the bus and spend a few hours at the school finding their classes, meeting teachers

and learning how to use a locker. “That’s the biggest fear, believe it or not,” Webb said. In addition to learning about how things work in the school, students also take a field trip to learn how to act out of school, she said. “We expect much more respon-

sibility in the middle school than they’re used to,” Webb said. When students take advantage of the program, it usually shows, she said. “When they come in on the first day of school, you can tell who did the Jump Start program,” Webb said.

Students who participate usually end up being the leaders of the class, Webb said. The program is funded through a 21st Century Grant, and Webb was excited the grant continued despite the economy. “I just love this building , and I love these students,” she said.

The Child Development Center at Florence Elementary celebrated the 4th of July all week long leading up to a grand finale. Jamie Higgins’s class marched to the beat of the drum in a parade around the school showing their spirit. Back row: Jamie Higgins, Jackson Canary, Anna Resing, RaeAnn Smith, Star Smith. Front row: D.J. Jones, Kayla Gibson, Grover Davis, Brianna Marks.

Wyatt in dance academy Union resident Claire Wyatt, daughter of Terry and Louanna Wyatt, is among about 115 young dancers that will travel to Columbus, Ohio, this summer to participate in the BalletMet Dance Academy Summer Intensives. This is rigorous training at the BalletMet Dance Centre for dance students with professional aspirations. Of the participants who qualified for the program through auditions, many have traveled from throughout the country for the opportunity to study at BalletMet, of the top 15 professional dance companies and one of the top five largest professional training centers in the country. The Intensive runs June 29

through July 24, with an additional week for the pre-professional program, the most advanced training level. Summer Intensive participants take classes at least five days each week. In addition to ballet technique, Pointe, and repertoire classes, they will study other disciplines including modern, jazz and character. They will also take part in enrichment courses in dance history, nutrition, music, Pilates and acting. “The Intensives let serious students nurture and develop their skills while becoming familiar with the daily life of a professional dancer,” Academy Director Susan Brooker said, adding that at least one participant in the pro-

gram will be chosen to be a BalletMet Company trainee for the 2009-10 season. The faculty includes BalletMet Company members, BalletMet Dance Academy faculty and adjunct instructors from other Columbus organizations. BalletMet Artistic Director Gerard Charles will also work with workshop participants. The Intensives commence with participant showings, both open to the public. The intermediate/advanced program levels perform July 24 while the pre-professional students present at the conclusion of their session, July 31.

After months of intensive research and success at district and state-level competitions, Rachael and Travis Wilson, two Boone County homeschooled students, will present their projects at the annual National History Day competition, held at the University of Maryland College Park Campus in the Washington, D.C., area. Rachael will be participating in the individual performance category presenting, “Behold all Things Have Changed,” a monologue depicting Annie Sullivan’s struggles and early triumphs when she began teaching Helen Keller to communicate. “I have always been fascinated with Helen Keller and after reading a book titled Miss Spitfire, I knew I wanted to portray Helen Keller’s teacher Annie Sullivan,” Rachael said. Travis’s entry, “Harry S. Truman: The Individual who Saved Civilian Control of the Military,” is a research paper detailing Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s insubordination during the Korean conflict. “General Douglas MacArthur was a brilliant military strategist, but unfortunately he overstepped his bounds during the Korean Conflict,” said Travis. “He repeatedly made statements to reporters without clearance criticizing Truman’s foreign policy in an effort to promote his own more aggressive stance concerning the conflict;

this ultimately led to his dismissal.” During the fall of 2008 more than half a million students nationwide began their year-long National History Day program, competing in a series of history contests in their local districts and states. The top students in each category were selected for participation in the national contest. Participating students chose their own topics of study and research from original sources based on the theme, “The Individual in History: Actions and Legacies.” National History Day students researched historic documents and artifacts, conducted oral histories, searched the Internet for information on their topics, and traveled to historic sites. They presented their work in a variety of ways, by creating museum-type exhibits, video documentaries, original performances, or traditional research papers. More than 300 historians and other education professionals will evaluate the students work at the national competition. A total of $150,000 worth of scholarships are awarded at the national awards ceremony to select students, and approximately 100 students will take home cash prizes between $250 and $ 5,000 for superior work in each particular category of judging.

Verst Group makes donation Crayons to Computers, a nonprofit organization which distributes educational supplies to teachers around Greater Cincinnati, received a check for $2,075 from Verst Group Logistics in Walton. The generous donation was collected by employees at their annual employee picnic. “We are thrilled that Verst Group Logistics has chosen to help teachers and needy students,” said Shannon Carter, Crayons to Computers president and CEO. “We work with many schools in Northern Kentucky, and we are grateful to have the support of businesses in areas we serve.” Past recipients of the company’s donation include Habitat for Humanity, Parish Kitchen, Susan B. Komen and Juvenile Diabetes. Verst Group staff chose Crayons to Computers because the nonprofit supports schools in areas of their operations.

Ryle golfer wins 7-Up title jweber@nky.com

Thirteen years of golf experience, including several at Boone Links Golf Course, helped Blake Hamilton reach a big goal of his. Hamilton, an incoming Ryle High School sophomore, won the boys 14-15 age group in the 7-Up Junior Tour championships July 29. He shot a 151 over two rounds, one at Lassing Pointe in Union and the final round at Boone Links in Burlington. “It put a lot of hard work into it and it finally paid off,” he said. “I didn’t play well the whole year and finally got myself together and played well.” Hamilton trailed Seattle Stein of Covington Catholic by one stroke after the first round, and shot a 76 in the final round to win by two. Cooper’s Adam Millson was third. Hamilton didn’t scoreboardwatch down the stretch. “I didn’t pay attention to what anyone was doing. It was the farthest thing from my mind,” he said. “(The key) was playing smart, just middle of the fairway, middle of the green and two-putt.” Hamilton will enter his third season on Ryle’s varsity this fall and has played in the past two KHSAA state tournaments. Other results: Annika (girls): Kia Bakunawa

Ryle High School has played in the KHSAA boys’ golf state tournament for seven straight years. Keeping that streak going has required constant replenishment of top players. The Raiders will have to do so again, as their top two players from last year are playing Division I college golf Andrew Desmarais finished 10th at state and Cody Martin 43rd. Desmarais is a walk-on at the University of Cincinnati and Martin will play at the University of Kentucky. The Raiders do have three experienced contributors back in senior Jordan Erlewine, sophomore Blake Hamilton and senior Chris Lally. Erlewine was 24th in last year’s state tournament while Hamilton won the 7-Up Junior Golf Tour championship in the 1415 age group where he also finished second in the Northern Kentucky Junior Amateur. First-year coach Jonathan Ehlen, a 2003 Ryle grad, said he expects a combination of sophomore Chris Desmarais and eighthgraders Logan Gamm and Merik Berling to round out his lineup. Gamm finished second in the 1213 age group at the 7-Up Junior Tour Championship and Berling was the team’s medalist during tryouts. Ryle finished fifth at state last year.

Boone County

The Rebels have their top four players back from last year’s team that finished third in the region and are looking to challenge for a state berth. “We came so close last year, I really think we have a great chance to make it this year,” said head coach Rick Rowland. Among Rowland’s returnees are junior Austin Thomas, who qualified for state individually last season, and sophomore Carter Hibbard, who missed qualifying by a stroke. Seniors Kohl Dalton and Josiah Schulz are the other two returnees; sophomore Andrew Soukhome is expected to crack the starting five.

Cooper

The Jaguars return all their starters from last year. Sophomores Adam Millson (43.6) and Austin Molen (44.2) and Juniors Bradley Jury (45.2),

PROVIDED

Adam Millson is one of Cooper High School’s top golfers this year. Ryan Thompson (45.4) and Brandon Houston (46.8) look to improve on their nine-hole averages during match play. Adam Millson won the Northern Kentucky Junior Amateur Tournament over the summer and finished third in the 7-Up Tour finals. Austin Molen was the most improved player from last year and is developing into a fine player who played all summer long in the 7-Up Tour. Collin Smith is a very long hitter with a nice short game. He could make a significant impact on the team this year as he matures and plays in competitive matches. The roster is rounded out by freshmen Sammy Johnson and Cody Rose as well as eighthgraders Chase Thompson and Stephen Weymeyer.

Walton-Verona

This year the Bearcats look to improve on their 18-3 regular season record and All “A” regional crown with the return of lone senior Josh Locke, and sophomores Dustin Cottrell and David Lodestro. Juniors Sam Schmitt and Zach Peace look to leave an impact on this year’s season, while the eighth-grade pair of Zach McNeil and Preston Knibbe also have shown their ability to shoot in the low 40s on a consistent basis. With seasonal averages of 41, 42 and 44 for last year’s top three

CovCath lost three of its top five golfers to graduation but returns its top player in senior Mickey Sutton and its No. 5 player from last year, junior Andrew Kendall. Sutton played golf in several state and junior national tournaments this summer. Among those expected to step into the lineup are junior Josh Moorman, junior Joey Fredrick, senior Alex Ammerman and sophomore Seattle Stein. Moorman won the 7-Up championship in July.

Holy Cross

Chris Groger enters his ninth and final year at Holy Cross. The team graduated Blake Trimpe and Steve Rickels, who will both play for NKU this fall. Rickels was the 2008 Region 7 champion. “Our team lost a lot of firepower last year but we have a lot of nice, young talent at Holy Cross who have been waiting their time and it has now come,” Groger said. “We will be led by senior Brandon Trame who has worked very hard to earn the No. 1 spot in our rotation after that we have about six or seven golfers that I could interchange at anytime that hopefully I can get some consistency from to make us competitive. If we can get some consistency from our two through five spots we can beat some people.” Among those players looking for those chances to shine are Greg Dooley, Rob Broering, Tyler Johnson, Tommy Roenker and Nick Bockweg.

Cooper ready for 2nd year of golf By James Weber jweber@nky.com

The Cooper girls’ golf team returns five players this year: Junior Trish Finke, sophomores Shelby Baker and Lynette Nussabaum, and freshmen Molly Cheek and Sarah Nesmith. The Jaguars welcome two new players in freshman Chloe Deaton and eighth grader Jessica Dunham. “(We) have a little more experience under their belt this year, so we are looking to improve our 5-8 record from last year, as well as our conference play where we came in fifth,” head coach Rosanne Burke said. “The girls have been playing in the 7-Up Tour to help improve their play, and Molly Cheek qualified for the

tour championship. “The key to our success this year will be consistant play, confidence, and concentration. We do have some talent, but they will have to think and relax out on the course, and play their game.”

Notre Dame

The Notre Dame Academy girls’ golf team graduated Alex Carl, who finished 10th in the state tourney last year, but they return the other four starters from last year’s state tourney in Ali Cheesman, Maggie Enzweiler, Kelsey Kennedy and Angela Pugliano. Senior Kia Bakunawa joins the team for the first time and should help fill Carl’s shoes as she won the 7-Up Junior Tour champi-

onship in late July. Carly Metzger and Sydney Swingos are also in the mix. Cheesman was medalist at Notre Dame’s tryout. Pugliano was junior medalist at this year’s Northern Kentucky Women’s Amateur. NDA also has some very good JV players that are ready to make their mark at NDA including Haley Berling, Kelly Kleier and Megan McNulty. “The key to this year is playing as a team and staying focused on our goals,” said new head coach Karen Henderson. “We may not have a No. 1 player that can consistently shoot in the 70s every week but we have five to six players that are capable of scoring in the upper 70s and in the 80s and low 90s, which is even better. I

would rather have this scenario than a team with one or two good players and then no one else capable of consistently breaking 100. I feel our strength is our depth and commitment.”

Holy Cross

The Indians have a very young girls’ golf team but hopes for a good season. Co-head coaches Paul and Donna White took over right before the 2008 season and the team had a late start because few matches were scheduled. The Indians managed that adversity well with a 4-4 dual match record. Now that they have been at HC for a year, the Whites expect a smoother season. Also, they have four returning

golfers in Emily Armbrecht, Hannah Buechle, Kendra Cross, and Kaitlin Cross. Kaitlin Cross had a hole-in-one last year for Holy Cross. “We are happy to say that all four girls will be returning this year with the addition of Chloe Nienaber, Stephanie Struve and Jacklyn Vieth,” Donna White said. “This year looks to be a very promising second season. These ladies have been practicing very hard and are looking forward to the competitions that are scheduled. Many of the girls played in the 7-Up tour this past summer, and enjoyed playing the different courses. These girls are not afraid of a challenge. Our team is convinced that this is truly the sport for life.”

After tracking Gracie down, Schultz left her at home, strapped on her roller stakes and chased her Black-N-Bluegrass Roller Derby teammates through the rink at the Florence Fundome. To her teammates, Schultz is better known as Florence Nite-N-Hell, a tough 5-foot-9 38-year-old blocker that has battled through numerous knee injuries. Outside of the Fundome, she is a nurse and a mother that dons combat boots and a unique red and blue hairdo. “Florence balances out Jenni,” said Schultz of her alter ego. “I can dress in my scrubs and I love time with my patients, but I also absolutely love ‘bout day’ (games) when I can do my makeup like David Bowie, wear spankies and fishnets and knock the crap out of people.” Her daughter, Ginger, doesn’t necessary share the love of the sport. “All you guys do is skate around in a circle,” Ginger told her mom one day at roller derby practice. “Ah, no, it is a little bit more than that,” Florence Nite-N-Hell said. To the unknowing fan, roller derby appears to be a bunch of women on roller skates skating in a circle and randomly ramming into each other. To roller girls and others that follow the sport, roller derby can be a complicated game that requires multiple days worth of practice each week. However, while some are attracted to the sport because of the strategy, most are there to see the collisions. The collisions don’t just bring in the fans, but also

I grew up in a time when churches were able to leave their doors unlocked in safety. The community looked upon the church as a sacred place and the property of the church belonged to God and thus was off limits to vandals. My opinion has been challenged lately by events that have occurred in our church. Kento-Boo Baptist Church, located on Kento-Boo Avenue, has been here for more than 59 years. The church has always tried to minister to the community by providing food and other help for those less fortunate. The church has been a good member of the community growing and providing a boost to the value of property by building beautiful church buildings. I ask for the help of the community in finding property belonging to the church. About a week ago, someone came into our parking lot and stole our church trailer that contained our church tent. The red trailer is 12 foot by 7.5 feet with the logo KentoBoo Baptist Church written on it. The trailer contained a church-wide tent measuring 24 feet by 64 feet. The individuals took the trailer in full view of some neighbors, who weren’t aware it was being stolen. The Florence Police are investigating the theft and hopefully will soon catch the thieves. I just can’t understand why people would even consider stealing from the church. I believe we are looking at an accelerated procession of a breakdown of our society. I’d love to be able to return to those days of yesteryear when people respected the church and had some kind of fear of God. Pastor Stan Cole Kento-Boo Baptist Church Florence

Eliminate organizations

Over the past year there have been many reports of taxpayer dollars used to support such organizations as Acorn and the $8 billion awarded to them to support community organizing and to re-elect mostly Democrat candidates. Early this spring, Will Terwort, a young Fort Mitchell councilman, questioned expenses charged by Fort Mitchell officials to the Kentucky League of Cities. This did not generate much news locally. Now newspapers are reporting abuses by local officials of expense accounts of the Kentucky Association of Counties. These include local officials taking trips to Hawaii, Washington, D.C., and other cities to attend meetings and pay for $7,000 dinners enjoyed by these officials at taxpayer expense. As taxpayers read daily that our local and federal governments are finding it hard to cut expenses, we wonder what purpose these organizations serve and why taxpayers have to pay for local officials to go to Frankfort or Washington to lobby for money when we have placed elected officials in office to secure these funds. These groups exist only so that local officials can use taxpayer dollars to pay for their parties. The American

Pitching in

We are a part of the Boone County Pee Wee Football League, Buckeyes, and we are proud to say we had the opportunity the weekend of Saturday, July 25, to “Pitch In” around our community and take part in the local “Trash for Cash” program. We had 27 volunteers picking up three miles of trash in the Boone County area. This was a great opportunity for the kids to see that littering is a huge issue in Boone County. The majority of our trash was cigarettes, pop bottles and fast food containers. These are all things that could easily be thrown away in a trash can and not on the ground. What really surprised us was Boone Woods Park. There are trash cans everywhere, yet there was trash on the ground instead of in the trash cans five feet away. Some of the kids took it to heart, wondering what kind of person would want to dirty their community. This was a real eye-opener for them. It was very disgusting picking up the cigarette butts and other used items that children this age should not be seeing. We live in a beautiful county, please help keep it clean. Please everyone “Pitch In”! Carmen Hamilton B.C.P.W.F.L. Buckeyes Football Team Mom Blankenbecker Drive, Florence

Trashing our community

It is amazing what people throw out the windows of their vehicles. You would expect to see the usual pop bottles, candy wrappers, chip bags, etc. You never would expect a shoe, a bucket, or a playground ball. Two weeks ago our football team cleaned roads in Boone County as a fund-raiser. We were assigned three miles of roadway to clean. To be prepared I drove down these roads just to get an idea of how much work it would be. None of them looked very “trashy” from my car window. Well, what a surprise when we started on foot. After you see what is buried in the ditches and tall grass along the roadways it makes you think how long has this been here and what was the scenario when the trash was thrown out. Was the guy driving the vehicle drunk when he through out the beer or vodka bottle? Did the ball fly out of daddy’s pickup bed? Did the bucket fall off of the work truck? And what about that shoe? Regardless of the circumstance it still trashes our community. I know all of our kids will look at littering differently now. Steve Woods Patriots Head Coach Boone County Pee Wee Football League

What do you like and dislike about the health care proposals currently before Congress?

“I like nothing about any of them. The government needs to keep their hands off my health insurance and my health care. If they can come up with a reasonable plan to help the 20 million or so who unintentionally can’t get it, I would consider but not for

“Not much to like. Do not want the government more involved. Government is the biggest part of the problem now. There is no way to cover more people for less money and give the same care. Do I want less care? No!” J.B.

Like many Americans, Kentuckians are frustrated with the partisan path that the 111th Congress has taken. After watching our national debt rise to new and unwelcome heights while wildly expensive legislation is rushed through Congress in a matter of days, folks across the country have every reason to be wary of the health care bill that is being pushed by the Democrats in Washington. Since House Democrats introduced America’s Affordable Health Choices Act (H.R. 3200) in early July, I have received an outpouring of letters, phone calls, and e-mails from residents across the Fourth District with their thoughts on the bill and what Congress must do to make health care more affordable. While most recognize the need for improvements in our health care system, the vast majority are adamant that this bill is the wrong prescription for reform. Many Kentuckians have concerns about the proposed “public plan” option in the bill. Although supporters of the bill claim that this government-run plan is designed to encourage “competition” in the insurance markets, many worry that the plan could eventually eliminate private insurance choices. A constituent from Edgewood said, “This legislation is a stepping stone to single-payer insurance controlled by a bunch of

bureaucrats in Washington, and it should be ‘sold’ to the public as such.” The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office stated last U.S. REP. week that, GEOFF DAVIS instead of reducCOMMUNITY ing long-term care RECORDER health costs, the GUEST D e m o c r a t s ’ COLUMNIST health care bill could add $1.6 trillion to the federal deficit over the next 20 years. Families are worried about what this could mean for their children, their jobs, and their communities. One constituent from Florence wrote, “I … am tired of being told to support the whole country when … we are struggling to support our own families, at times with three jobs.” A resident of Taylor Mill said, “I do not want to wait in long lines to get the level of care I need. I do not want to wait weeks for surgery because I become a number … Keep the government out of the equation.” I have also heard from small business owners who are angry about the $820 billion dollars in new taxes that are included in H.R. 3200. These tax increases will hit small business owners hard; according to an economic

COMMUNITY RECORDER

model developed by Christina Romer, the president’s own economic adviser, the Democrats’ health care reform could cost 4.7 million jobs. A business owner from Florence told me, “If I was mandated to provide health care for my employees or pay an 8 percent payroll tax penalty, I would have no choice but to close my business.” An employee from Taylor Mill said he feared this new government-run health care system would eventually cost him his job. To successfully reform health care, we must first accomplish three things: reform of existing government health care programs (like Medicaid and Medicare) to ensure efficiency and accessibility, reform the private market insurance system and enact tort reform to end frivolous lawsuits. Without all three, we will fail in our shared goal of reducing health care costs for families, businesses and the government. House Republicans have proposed a commonsense solution that would address these issues while providing all Americans access to affordable, highquality health care – all at a price our government can afford. You can read more about our plan at http://blunt.house.gov/Read.aspx ?ID=1140. U.S. Rep. Geoff Davis, R-Hebron, represents the 4th District in the House of Representatives.

Turn on, tune in, camp out I’m not the world’s best camper. I tend to wear impractical little dresses and refuse to commit to buying hideous hiking boots. I drop more (vegetarian) hot dogs in the fire than I actually get to ingest and have created more than my fair share of flaming marshmallow. When I attempt a tent setup, I end up with a structure closer akin to a Christo artwork than a usable shelter. I get cold and complain. I harbor a deep and abiding fear of bears. And yet, I love to camp. I love the sounds, the open skies, the rich, incense-like smells, the sweat, the sleeplessness, and the simplicity. I love that making dinner feels like an accomplishment. I love lying on the ground and getting filthy dirty. I love the simultaneous sense of isolation and camaraderie, the realization that we’re all tiny components in a much bigger and more beautiful system. I could wax poetic on wilderness all day long but perhaps we should let one of the masters on the subject have his say. “Our village life would stagnate,” Henry David Thoreau wrote, “if not for the unexplored forests and meadows which surround it. We need the tonic of wilderness.” (Perhaps in addition to poetry, Thoreau provides fertile marketing language

Individuals who opt to exercise surrounded by foliage don’t feel as anxious, angry or depressed as those who jog indoors and they reported feeling better restored (Pretty et al., 2005), (Bodin and Hartig, 2003). Our natural environment can help folks heal faster and experience less pain (Ulrich, 1984), (Diette et al., 2003) and

“The health care proposal currently before Congress is the biggest sham the government has ever tried to put over the constituents. They are trying to ram something through in less than 30 days – they won’t even take the time to read and understand the proposed bill. To do something of this magnitude needs the proper attention and understanding of the people proposing and approving the bill. I think they just want ‘to do’ it no

could be helpful in improving heart disease, dementia, psychological disorders, developmental and cognitive disabilities, cancer and other conditions (Wichrowski et al., 2005), (Gigliotti et al. 2004), (Eikenaes et al., 2006; Bettman, 2007), (Berger, 2006) (Epstein 2004), (Easley et al., 1990). Of course, any of these health benefits might be negated by an encounter with a bear. The benefits to roughing it aren’t just confined to those with serious diseases, either. Exercise, sunshine, squirrels, fresh air, and the landscape of our great state – some of the prettiest scenery ever put down on the earth – can relieve you of stress and imbue you with a new perspective on your life. Trust me. So let’s agree that the “staycation” is passé and the real prospect for summertime adventure and rejuvenation is to be found on the ground, next to a campfire, with something sugary roasting on a stick.

Chuck, Linda Oakes honored

Judge Gary Moore proclaimed July 16 “Chuck and Linda Oakes Day.” That evening, a tribute was made to Chuck and Linda Oakes at Lincoln Woods Park, as the two finished 27 years of service to the Northern Kentucky Girls Fast Pitch Softball League (formally know as Boone County Girls Softball League) last year. The girls softball program has served more than 1,000 girls a summer which they supported for more than 27 years.

In their honor, the Boone County Parks Department placed two new benches at Lincoln Woods, one for each of them. Each steel bench has their names engraved and a plaque of service explaining their tireless effort throughout the years. The couple has spent 34 years of their marriage giving back to their community. For more than 30 years they have been involved with local Special Olympics.

Bonnie Hampton of Hebron stands next to one of her compost bins in her backyard.

Bonnie Hampton has two compost bins in her Hebron backyard. She uses one to mulch her vegetable garden. The other one provides soil for her potted plants. Hampton, who teaches a children’s composting class for the Hamilton County Department of Environmental Services at the Civic Garden Center of Greater Cincinnati, said she’s been composting since about 1970. Hampton said she composts because it really helps the landfill not to fill up and overflow too fast. She said compost is much, much better for plants than any chemical fertilizers. She said it makes them grow better, conditions the soil and kills other germs and fungi. “It’s just a much better thing,” she said. According to John Duke, who teaches the master composting class at the Civic Garden Center and founded the American Compost Society in 2003, composting works this way: The material is in a bin that provides the material a closed space where the material gets hot and decomposes quicker. He said it’s important to keep the compost aerated

and moist. Bacteria, worms and other living organisms help the composting process. Materials that are good to compost are kitchen scraps (fruits and vegetables) and coffee grounds. Duke said one doesn’t want to put meat, cheese and oil of any kind in the compost because primarily it will create an odor problem. However, he said it will decompose and you can do it if you can tolerate the odor. He said it’s up to the individual whether to put in weeds that might have seeds in them. PAUL MCKIBBEN/STAFF “If your compost bin is going to get hot and it’ll get up to 160 degrees, if This is another one of Bonnie Hampton’s compost you do it right, you’ll kill most of the bins in her Hebron backyard. weed seeds,” he said.

Corn on the cob is a wonderful summer treat. Is it plentiful in the local markets now and it is difficult to beat the flavor and fun of eating. Ask three people how they would freeze corn on the cob and you will probably hear three different answers. The recommended method of freezing it is outlined below. Many people wonder why you need to blanch corn on the cob for as long as recommended. There are enzymes in the corn and cob that cause it to age. Freezing helps slow the enzymes but does not inactivate them. Heat, however does. Properly blanching and cooling the corn on the

cob prior to freezing is important for a high quality product. Prope r l y processed Diane Mason corn will Community last nine 12 Recorder to months in columnist the freezer. Frozen corn on the cob should be thawed completely before cooking and eating. Choose corn that is ripe and free of bugs or blemishes. Remove the silk and husk. Wash the corn under cool running water. Use one gallon water per

pound of prepared vegetables. Put the vegetable in a blanching basket and lower into vigorously boiling water. The water should return to boiling within 1 minute, or you are using too much vegetable for the amount of boiling water. Start counting blanching time as soon as the water returns to a boil. Blanch small ears of corn (up to 1 1/2 inches in diameter) for 7 minutes, medium ears for 9 minutes, and large ears for 11 minutes. Immediately remove from the boiling water and place in very cold or ice water. Allow the ears to sit in the cold water for at least as long, if not twice as long, as they were blanched. It takes

time for the cob to cool completely. After the ears are completely cooled wrap them individually in wax paper or plastic wrap. Then place the wrapped ears into freezersafe bags or containers. Remove as much air as possible. Use the frozen corn within a year for best quality. If you need information on properly freezing or canning food items give us a call at 859-586-6101.

Considering the surprises of life Have you ever stopped spontaneously at a gas station, talked with a stranger at the next pump, and left with a great job offer? Did the university you chose for educational purposes introduce you to your spouse? Did you lose track of the wisest schoolteacher you ever had, wish you could have her advice now, and a week later in a crowded mall see her again? Have you ever unexpectedly met a physician who soon proved vital for your health? Many occurrences in our lives seem accidental or completely by chance. And the odds are thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what they are. But there are a few others that seem so much more to us in their impact and personal meaning. Yet the causes are undetectable. What can we call such occurrences? One melodious word is serendipity. A serendipity is an unexpected happy occurrence, or, as Webster defines it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;making desirable discoveries by accident.â&#x20AC;? Others might say that all

s u c h unexpected events, no matter how coincidentally bizarre, are just â&#x20AC;&#x153; b l i n d Father Lou fate.â&#x20AC;? Guntzelman W e m i g h t Perspectives even feel childish or superstitious to see them as anything more â&#x20AC;&#x201C; though we sense them as otherwise. Causality is inadequate to explain such phenomena. But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not being weird in sensing there may be more to it. In the well-respected field of Jungian psychology, however, such uncaused but amazingly meaningful and spontaneous occurrences are expressed by another term â&#x20AC;&#x201C; synchronicity. Jung called synchronicity â&#x20AC;&#x153;a non-causal but meaningful relationship between physical and psychic events â&#x20AC;Ś a special instance of acausal orderedness.â&#x20AC;? Dr. David Richo says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What makes chance into

synchronicity is the consciousness in us of the vaster design that is unfolding. Chance happens to us; synchronicity happens in us.â&#x20AC;? Those more spiritually oriented may speak of it as grace. From the vantage point of hindsight we look back in our lives and believe we see the providence of God working subtly. Though our actions were completely free and spontaneous, and there was no coercion or auto-suggestion, these few unexplainable events happened and worked to our benefit. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;A coincidence is a minor miracle in which God wishes to remain anonymous.â&#x20AC;? The late psychiatrist M. Scott Peck wrote, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become more and more impressed by the frequency of statistically highly improbable events. In their improbability, I gradually began to see the fingerprints of God. On the basis of such events in my own life and in the lives of my patients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know that grace is real. ...We who are properly skeptical and scientific-

minded may be inclined to dismiss this force since we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch it and have no decent way to measure it. Yet it exists. It is real.â&#x20AC;? Another professional, psycho-therapist Robert A. Johnson, refers to grace as â&#x20AC;&#x153;slender threadsâ&#x20AC;? touching our lives: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The possibility of the slender threads operating at all times is so staggering that most of us canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bear it. ...It is probably true that we live in a universe with more meaning in it than we can comprehend or even tolerate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Life is not meaningless; it is overflowing with meaning, pattern and connections.â&#x20AC;? Even in times of trouble or turmoil, hope says surprises can happen. Father Lou Guntzelman is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

Dees given surprise party Sheila Dees, Walton News owner of the FamiAnn Leake ly’s Main St. Restauand Ruth rant, was pleasantly surprised on Sunday Meadows afternoon with a surprise birthday party given by her family. Approximately 100 family, friends, staff and customers showered her with gifts and enjoyed delicious food, music and really had a good time celebrating Sheila’s 50 birthday. Congratulations

And they’re off: Turfway turns 50 In honor of Turfway Park’s 50th anniversary, Boone County Public Library is hosting a number of horse-themed programs this month such as horse ownership, farming with horses, and a history of horse racing in Northern Kentucky. Stop by the Main Library, 1786 Burlington Pike, through Sept. 25 to view photographs from the archives of Turfway Park in the art gallery and memorabilia from the track in the Local History Department. The history behind thoroughbred racing at Turfway Park spans three centuries. The track’s roots reach from the first race at the original Latonia Race Course to today’s call to the post, and the pulse-pounding rush of a great stretch run that hasn’t changed a bit in all that time. The original Latonia Race Course opened in 1883 in Latonia. Through the 1920s, Latonia offered top horses and the country’s richest purses. Its major race, the Latonia Derby, for years outshone the Kentucky Derby. The Great Depression forced the track’s decline, however, and it closed in July 1939. In the mid-1950s, a grandson of a partner in the original Latonia Race Course organized investors in a new track. The track, also named Latonia, opened Aug. 27, 1959, in Florence. In 1986, the track was renovated and renamed Turfway Park. Today Turfway Park employs about 100 people year-round, a number that jumps to 300plus during the track’s fall,

holiday, and winter/spring live race meetings. Not included in that number is the ever-changing population of jockeys, grooms, trainers, exercise riders, and others on the backside. To learn more about the history of Turfway Park, come to the Main Library at 7 p.m. Wednesday Aug. 26, when Dr. Jim Claypool highlights the drama of Northern Kentucky horse racing. From the old track in Latonia, to the Kentucky Derby and Turfway Park, you won’t want to miss the action or the stories.

The Boone County Jaycees hosted a “Meet the Stallions” night at the Florence Hooters on July 29. The Stallions are a semiprofessional football team in the Heartland Football league. The team, which has 40 players, plays its games at Dixie Heights High School in Edgewood. The Jaycees are a networking and community service organization for young people ages 20 to 40. The Jaycees are an official partner with the Kentucky Stallions. The Jaycee chapter serves concessions at each of the home games to generate profits for the two organizations. This event was held to celebrate the successful partnership between the Jaycees and the team. In addition, the Jaycees presented a check to the team for their portion of their profits from the concession sales at the home games to date. A check for more than $600 was presented to the team at the event by concessions manager Julie Metzger Aubuchon. Aubuchon

District governor visits Florence Rotary July 27 was a homecoming day of sorts at the Commonwealth Hilton as Florence Rotary President John Salyers welcomed home native son and fellow Rotarian Dennis McEvoy. McEvoy is the 20092010 district governor for Rotary District 6740, encompassing 42 Rotary clubs throughout Eastern Kentucky. In his official duties as district governor, McEvoy is charged with visiting each Rotary club in the district as early in his term as possible. He has been traveling across the state since the first of July, visiting clubs from Middlesboro to Mt. Sterling, and expressed obvious delight in visiting a club “10 minutes from home.” McEvoy is the first district governor to be elected from the Florence Rotary Club. McEvoy described his visits to the various Rotary

event. A life-long Rotarian, and son of a Rotarian, McEvoy said he had internalized a somewhat hazy concept of the various international projects supported by the Rotary Foundation. At the assembly, he met men and women from the very countries and districts he had been hearing about throughout his Rotary experience. As he said “I thought I knew what Rotary was before the training, but came away with a whole new appreciation of what Rotary has accomplished and how much more Rotarians working together are capable of achieving. McEvoy also reminded the audience of Rotary’s continued commitment to the eradication of polio. He described a surprise visit by Bill Gates to the district governors training assembly. Speaking emotionally about his own family experience with polio, Gates added $250 million to the $100

Clubs as both informative and inspirational. He said he is reminded at each stop of the wonderful people that Rotary attracts, and their spirit of dedication to serving others and their communities. That is what has made Rotary such a special and highly regarded institution. He recounted that at its core, the foundation of Rotary is “good people coming together to help their fellow man.” Throughout Kentucky, as in Rotary Clubs across the globe, Rotarians give of their time, their talents and their resources in an effort to make the world a better place for all. McEvoy recalled his week of training in preparation for his coming role as district governor. He described the assembly of 500 district governors-elect from more than 200 countries as a simultaneously awe-inspiring and humbling

million matching grant he had previously pledged to Rotary International’s ongoing efforts to eradicate this once rampant disease. With the grant, Gates challenged Rotary to continue working and to make the final push to completely eliminate polio from the Earth. As McEvoy said, realizing the progress already made, the commitment to continuing this important work, and the confidence of such major benefactors as Bill and Melinda Gates, makes you proud to be part of such a wonderful organization. Writing on behalf of all the members of Florence Rotary, we are proud to have our own Dennis McEvoy serving as district governor, and wish him every success throughout his term.

Roeser’s firm in spotlight Greater Cincinnati’s largest public relations firm, like its airport, is located in Northern Kentucky. The award-winning firm is bringing a little more national attention to the Cincinnati area after being featured in a nationwide documentary series that showcases businesses from across the country making a positive difference in their communities. Eisen Marketing Group president Rodger Roeser, a Burlington resident, was interviewed as part of the documentary by 50 in 52 Journey and its filmmaker Daphne Michaelson, who is interviewing these “community movers and shakers” in all 50 states over 52 weeks.

Kentucky is currently the featured state, and includes the Greater Cincinnati PR firm and its Operation Outreach program among a total of seven groups featured in the commonwealth. The documentary can be accessed online at www.50in52journey.com/st ates/Kentucky6.asp along with clips from several other states. Featured organizations from Ohio are also available. EMG’s Operation Outreach program provides grant dollars in the form of pro bono assistance to nonprofit organizations throughout the Tristate and across the country. EMG has proudly assisted such organizations as The Cincinnati Police, Newport Fire-

fighters, Brighton Center, Split Rock Conservatory, the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society, Kindervelt and more with marketing communications, Web site and graphic design, advertising and public relations services. “When Rodger started his company he realized that giving was going to be a part of his success,” Michaelson said. “Once EMG was in a position to do so they began giving back to the community by helping nonprofit organizations who had little to no money by helping provide them with top notch marketing services at no cost. With applications jumping from one year to the next, they now have a formal process to try to find the best candi-

dates to have the most impact.” Roeser said, “I hear so many wonderful stories about groups and organizations that make an incredible impact around our community, but they can’t afford to share that story and create pieces that will help them raise additional dollars so they can, in turn, do more. Operation Outreach provided a formalized mechanism for our firm to help, and it has been great for the morale of our organization as well. We understand that we are the leading firm in the city, and with that comes the responsibility to give back – and we’re humbled that our clients have put us in a position that we are able to do that.”

Weight loss program offered in fall Two sessions of the OFF Program, a weight loss plan for women sponsored by the Northern Kentucky Health Department, are scheduled for the fall. OFF, which stands for Outsmarting Female Fat, is specially designed for

women who want to lose weight by making longterm lifestyle changes. The program is led by registered dietitians from the Health Department and deals with all aspects of weight control, healthy eating and exercise. OFF sessions will be held

5:30 to 7 p.m. on Thursdays from Sept. 17 to Nov. 19 at the Boone County Health Center, 7505 Burlington Pike, Florence. Cost of the program is only $20 to help cover the costs of materials that participants will receive. The fee will be collect-

ed at the first session. To register online for OFF, please go to http://www.nkyhealth.org, and click on Current Programs. For more information or to register by phone, please call Debbie Burlew at 859-341-4264, Ext. 2628.

Bikers hit the road for babies March of Dimes event brings riders together

On Aug. 22 die-hard bikers and weekend warriors will ride together to raise urgently needed funds to help every baby be born healthy. At Turfway Park in Florence, Bikers for Babies registration will start at 10:30 a.m. and the ride will begin at 11:30 a.m. The rain date is Aug. 29.

Individual riders as well as motorcycle clubs will hit the road on a 60-mile route going behind Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport through Rabbit Hash and back for an after party at Turfway Park to benefit March of Dimes research and programs that help moms have full-term pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. The after party features live entertainment by Prizoner, food, beverages and a raffle. Fred Kohnke, 2009 Bik-

ers for Babies Chair and president and CEO of Staffmark, said, “Seeing the riders set out together in support of the smallest members of our community, is always an incredible sight. The roar of the bikes moving in unison speaks to the power this group has to help babies.” Sponsors include Staffmark, Wells Fargo Insurance Services of Ohio, LLC, Aon, Compass Group Management, LLC, US Bank, Grant Thornton LLP, Essential StaffCARE, VonLehman & Co. Inc, Dins-

more & Shohl, LLP, TALX Corp. and I & Eye Productions. The most urgent infant health problem in the U.S. today is premature birth. It affects more than half a million babies each year, with the number growing every day. Babies born too soon are more likely to die or have disabilities. The March of Dimes is committed to reducing this toll by funding research to find the answers to premature birth and providing comfort and information to families who are affected.

Earthworm presence indicator of soil health Question: When I treat my lawn with pesticides for grubs, and when I treat my garden for insects, does that have an impact on the beneficial earthworms? Answer : That depends on which chemicals you are using, since they vary in their toxicity to earthworms. It’s usually not much of a problem in gardens, orchards or flower beds, where the pesticide is sprayed directly on the plant, not on the soil. It does become more of a factor in lawns, however. Once called the “intestines of the Earth” by Aristotle, earthworms are both indicators of soil health and help to improve the soil as

they move through it. Earthworms tunnel deep within the soil, creating channels for air and water to pass through. As they tunnel, they bring up nutrients from below and carry organic matter from the surface, mixing it into the soil. Earthworms can consume their own weight in organic matter each day, and Charles Darwin in his 39 years of studying earthworms, found that in a healthy environment they can create as much as 36,000 pounds of Nitrogenrich castings per acre. A soil rich in earthworms helps plants to grow. In home lawns, earthworms can also help prevent harm-

ful thatch build-up as they consume dead roots and stems and mix soil into the thatch layer. This soil encourages microbial activity that helps break down the thatch even more quickly. Excessive applications of Nitrogen can reduce earthworm populations. Earthworms are generally intolerant of acidic soils (pH < 6.0). Many commonly applied fungicides and pesticides can damage earthworms too. Remember to treat only when necessary, using the least toxic product for the job. Use spot treatments rather than whole lawn applications where possible,

and try to avoid applications when earthworms are most active near the surface. The following toxicity information for earthworms was obtained during a 3year research project by the University of Kentucky entomology department. Within each toxicity class, products are listed by their common name, then brand name. Low Toxicity (0 percent to 25 percent reduction in earthworm numbers when applied to soil): chlorothalonil - Bravo, fenarimol - Rubigan, fosetyl Aliette, iprodione - Chipco 20619 (Rovral), mancozeb - Dithane M-45 (and Manzate 200), metalaxyl -

Each guest room or suite has a stained glass window, usually in the bedroom, a Victorian fireplace mantel with a gas log unit, antique light fixtures and some have beautiful old doors. The wood mouldings around the door & windows & the 5 stairways are inspired by centuries old motifs from Great Britain’s stately homes & castles.
